Amazing experience in Masai Mara
We booked a 3-day safari in Masai Mara. We were picked up at our hotel and to meet the rest of the group in Nairobi and then travel to the park.
When we got there lunch was served and afterwards we left for an evening drive.
The next day we got up early to spend all day in the park and we got to see 4 of the big five. Rhino is very hard to spot, but we did see a leopard!
Our driver; Kikitou, went out of his way to make sure we could see as much animals as possible. He was the most positive and happy person, really nice to have such a great driver!
The last day we went to visit the Masai village. Those people try to rip you off, so be prepared. It was nice to see the village, but their attitude is not so nice, as they just want to take as much money from as they can. Our driver Kikitou made them clear that we had already paid for the visit and then they were ok, but still we had to buy the most ugly necklace to support them (they really try to manipulate you, so you would feel sorry for them).
Overall the trip was organised great and I can recommend it to everybody!

Kruger Park & Johannesburg
I’m Mexican so my review will be written with a latin point of view I hope is helpful . Johannesburg for me was a interesting city because of the shocking economical segregation, coming from a 3rd world country I thought it wouldn’t be as shocking from me but it was… you just can’t use your mobile on the streets because you could get robbed even on the best areas… I was lucky I had a host who told me all these details and gave me a tour around the real Johannesburg and saw all the actual culture which is beautiful.
Kruger park was my first safari ever and I had a great accommodation in Kriger Gate Hotel, right next to the entrance which is very convenient since you’ll start very early in the morning , food is amazing I just had the impression that the staff is a bit tired of tourists for example I did ask to the lobby manager if there was no danger of animals coming into the hotel (I saw a impala right next to my door) and she was quite dry on her explanation about how safe the place was, I just thought it was a normal care since I don’t live in Africa , examples like this were repetitive with the safari staff and the hotel staff without been really rude but just kinda tired of tourists.
Animals are all over the park you can see all of them , take 3 days to see the whole area. My experience in Mozambique was completely different, all the people was so good to me and you could feel absolutely safe everywhere but didn’t see as much animals , just by the sea.

Wonderful country, would come again
Great country and incredible wild life. Also, there are nice bars and restaurants in Nairobi, and the cultural life is rich and diverse. I would like to come back.

Best Kenyan Safari
Our 16 day Kenyan Safari and Beach vacation was a trip of a lifetime! We were so impressed by the accommodations, food and first class service everywhere we went. George assisted us with the planning and all the arrangements were done prior to our arrival in Nairobi. Our tour guide, Jacob, was amazing he went beyond his way to show us so many different animals in their natural habitats. We already saw the great 5 on our second day! It was truly amazing, I never expected to see so many different animals and their babies. Jacob was very knowledgeable, not only with the different safaris that we visited but also with the roads, highways and his command of the English language was great. He made our trip to the Safaris a memorable and wonderful experience.

Phenomenal Mt. Kilimanjaro Trek and Safari
Fantastic tour company! I booked a 5 day Kilimanjaro trek, followed by a 4 day safari for a group of 4. The scheduling process was seamless. Alex, was always incredibly quick to respond and was very helpful with any and all changes we needed to make.
For the Kilimanjaro trek, our guides were Agrey, Remy and Lemmick, all of which were fantastic! They all spoke very good English and were very knowledgeable about the mountain. Couldn’t have asked for a better team!
The only bit of confusion was at the end of the trek when we were about to tip. When tipping, it’s expected to be $10-15 per person/per day that climbed the mountain with you (typically 3 additional people per hiker i.e. porter, chef, guide) not $10-15 per hiker. This wasn’t outlined very well, so we originally tipped about 1/3 of what would be considered a decent tip. Luckily, our guide brought this to our attention, so we were able to compensate the phenomenal team appropriately. Just wish we had known, so that we would have had the money ready. They were worth every cent!
For the Safari, our guide was Moses. He was amazing! No wonder he’s worked with National Geographic, because he found every animal plus several more than we were expecting. The camps and hotels we stayed at were all very clean, and the people working were all very helpful too.
10/10 would recommend this tour company, and I would absolutely ask for the guides we had again. All great people that made for an unforgettable experience!

Pembury Tours, a Flawless African Adventure!
Our travel consultant Kerry arranged a flawless 14 night trip through Southern Africa for my wife and I! Three countries, four flights, a dozen tours, and countless incredible animal encounters all packaged into what we are calling the best trip of our life. Kerry was with us every step of the way, and immediately available when we needed anything during our travels. If you want the African trip of a lifetime, look no further than Pembury Tours. We cannot wait to explore more of the continent, and we know we'll be in great hands with Kerry and the whole team at Pembury.

Unforgettable Uganda experience
I had a great experience from start to end, since the early communication to set up the itinerary, quotation, flexibility during the tour to adapt due to flight delays, change of plans, etc. Primate Journeys Africa was the perfect choice as I had a unique and unforgettable experience from North to South of Uganda!

fantastic day
first of all, i contacted several companies and Sino Africa was the only one that responded to each and every question without leaving me to wait for long time. the price was also most reasonable among all. most importantly they provided tailor made program so that i could design my own trip. The Safari day was fantastic. we saw as many animals as we wished for at,Nairobi NP in the morning then continued with cycling Safari at Hells Gate NP plus bushwalking. I'd recommend this company to everyone.

Excellent, proficient , warm hospitality and reliable
I visited Kenya with my friends during June end and we were lucky to have found the contact of Steve through a friend of ours. Steve took care of our bookings end to end ( Accommodation, food and safari ) and I must say we were very happy with every bit of arrangements made for us at Kenya as per our budgets. His responses were prompt at any given point of time which made it easier for us to clarify all queries and plan our trip accordingly.
A special mention to our tour guide Peterrrr :) . He was the first good thing that happened to us at the trip and next good thing were the game drives. He was very cooperative, welcoming, friendly, accommodative & has abundant knowledge. He made sure all our requirements were met during our stay, made us feel comfortable throughout our journey and made sure we thoroughly enjoyed our game drives without disappointing us.
My friends & I were hell bent on spotting all the Big 5 animals since day 1 and well Peter made that happen for us. We were overwhelmed with joy and happiness
I must say Peter has immense patience and hats off to him for that! :)
To sum it up we truly had a magical experience and it was worth every single penny spent. We returned back home with cherished memories forever.
Couldn’t be more grateful to Steve, Peter and his entire team for making this trip a dream come true for us. I would highly recommend Ramja Safaris.
