Highlight of our Kenya Trip
We were so lucky to have Solomon as our guide for the Safari. It was four of us and we booked a 3-day Safari via Jocky with Day-1 spent in covering Naivasha and Nakuru, Day-2 spent in traveling from Nakuru to Masai Mara and an evening game drive, Day-3 on a full day game drive in Masai Mara and Day-4 in heading back from Masai Mara to Nairobi.
Our experience of making the reservations through Jocky was smooth, but the real highlight of our trip was our guide Solomon. Solomon has over 15 years of experience of being a Safari guide and knows Masai Mara inside out. He is a great professional and an amazing person. During the Safaris he was extremely proactive and always prioritized our comfort and wildlife sightings. Apart from being an amazing guide in the parks, he was also fun to hang out with. He has a great sense of humor and entertained us with a number of stories of his encounters with wildlife in the park.
We had a really memorable trip to Naivasha, Nakuru, and Masai and I can honestly say that a HUGE part of that was because of Solomon.
So if you are planning your visit to Masai Mara and want to have an amazing time, you Better Call Sol.

We had such an amazing trip!
As a group of 8 colleagues we have booked a one week safari trip with Tanzania Specialist and what an amazing trip it was! Everything was so well arranged and accomodations were of really high quality (bed, food and friendliness of staff!). We had 2 cars and drivers (Haji and Humphrey) and they were amazing! Had lots of knowledge and good drivers too! I definately recommend Tanzania Specialist and would book with them again!! Communication was always excellent with them!

Good guiding through Serengeti
We were very pleased with our guide David who showed us the best Serengeti had to offer. We saw most of the animals (except the rhino) and the surroundings were absolutely beautiful. Lodges were also super, especially Lake Manyara which had the best view ever! Pool overlooking the dried out lake, a truly mesmerizing view! Food was super and service as well. We can recommend this company to anyone who wants to see Tanzania at it's best.

Amazing trip to Kgalagadi with Siya Phambile
From the very first contact with Siya Phambile Expeditions Benjamin was extremely prompt and helpful when answering my emails, he put together an amazing itinerary staying 5 nights in different areas of the Kgalagadi.
Picked up at upington airport and whisked away to a remote yet magical landscape and park full of unique and amazing wildlife. Saw all we had hoped for and more including the elusive cheetah we had previously missed on our first 2 safaris in the Kruger area.
Amazing campsites with equally amazing sunrises/sunsets and Benjamin provided all that was needed for a comfortable yet wild camping experience as well as cooking up delicious food and also catering for vegetarian requirements.
Benjamin was a brilliant guide, extremely knowledgable re the wildlife, vegetation and the park in general. He put together a superb trip and we couldn't be happier, if you are looking to visit Kgalagadi or anywhere for that matter you can't go wrong booking with Siya Phambile.

Reliable,punctual and fast in contacts.
My experience with Golden Rwanda Safaris was very positive even if for the period of my safari tour some extra problems had to be handled regarding Covid -19.
Precisely for this reason I appreciated the constant attention to the case, the punctuality in things and the fast communication.
Thank Frank and Claude.

Superb experience!
From start to finish chalo Africa (Sangeeta, Malvika and Smita) were incredibly helpful. They helped me chose just the right lodge and experience for my young family. Their attention to detail and communication throughout the journey was terrific. We did a 4 night stay at Phinda mountain lodge. Loved this property and it’s guides. This is my fourth safari booked with chalo Africa (Kenya, Congo, Botswana and South Africa). Love this group and it’s mission. Looking fwd to my next trip with them to Botswana in September. The best review I can offer is that I like them to so much, I have used chalk Africa for four trips over 5-6 years :-)

Excellent Trip, Great reliable company
Mohammed is an excellent manager, and Joseph is an excellent guide. Joseph could spot animals that were insanely hard to find, at great distances, while driving at high speeds. He positioned the car perfectly to take photos.
Mohamed was a fair negotiator, who is extremely receptive to feedback. He was 100% straight forward and honest, in an industry where honesty is often lacking. He always answers questions directly and clearly. He also expertly handled problem Safari guests. I really enjoyed working with him to arrange my Safari!
Lake Manyara was a little lackluster, compared to the other parks due to flooding. In future, I would probably do an additional day in Serengeti. Overall, the trip was amazing and we saw a lot of Animals. I will be back!

Great service and experiences on Safari and climbing Kilimanjaro!
Me and my wife had a great time with Maryo Tours. We climbed Kilimanjaro and did the Lemosho Route. It was an excellent team and we were treated very well! Besides that we did the 5-day safari tour with Maryo Tours. This was a very nice experience with good guiding and we got to see all the different animals in the different parks. Overall very nice experience: excellent lodges, good food (especially on the Kili climb), good service and friendly people!
