He was excellent!!!
They provide best services and communication from the moment you approach them for a trip till the day of your trip...the trip to masai mara was worth it and I received good services both from the hotel where I was staying to my tour guide..everything surpassed my expectations and I enjoyed.
Would highly recommend booking a trip with them

This tour operator is friendly, punctual, and accomodating!
I used MoAfrika for several tours while I was in South Africa, and I enjoyed all of them! They communicate pick-up times early and were very reliable for pick-up and drop-off times. I would recommend booking with them! My tour at Pilanesberg was incredible, and I would suggest it for anyone interested in nature and wildlife.

Amazing bucket list safari experience!!
We absolutely loved our 15 day Kenya, Tanzania, & Zanzibar holiday booked through Right Choice! It was so hard to sift through all the tour companies and options out there, but not only did the itinerary work so well for us, but the value was awesome and it was actually how good the trip advisor reviews were that sold me! Our Kenya guide, Jacob, was so knowledgable and helpful! He honestly made our trip and safari!! The owner, George, was very quick to respond to our emails and requests.
At the Kenya/Tanzania border we were met by another company, Raven Safaris, who is partners with Right Choice to complete the Tanzania portion of the safari. Our guide, Rajabu, was fabulous as well!
A few things to note for to future travelers:
1. We didn't know we'd have the whole safari car to ourselves the entire time, we just thought the transfers between the spots were private but we would be in a group setting for the game drives -- this is not the case! You have a private vehicle for the duration of your trip! We only packed soft duffles and backpacks because that was what all the blog posts said, but since we had much more room we could have saved our backs a bit and done wheeled luggage. The flight from Arusha to Zanzibar also didn't care about wheeled luggage.
2. You have the same guide everyday you are in Kenya and different guide for your whole portion in Tanzania (not including Zanzibar). This was actually really nice to have the same person with us for multiple days, we weren't sure if we were going to have different people in each location when we booked!
3. A lot of blog posts warned us about tsetse flies and only wearing neutral earth colored clothing -- tsetse flies were only in Tanzania (not a thing around Kenya I guess) and we really didn't need to buy as much neutral safari clothing as we did.
Overall my husband and I highly recommend this trip - it was truly a once in a lifetime experience for us and we are so thankful to Right Choice & Raven Safaris for making it such a pleasurable experience!

Okay for low budget journey
The trip was really good. We had a very good driver and great fellow travellers. What really bothered us was the organisation in the background. Every fellow traveller had booked a different trip with different hotels, different activities and different lengths of the trip. For this reason, the plan had to be changed constantly. A game drive in the morning was cancelled once and the other times we were late at the reserve because we had to collect all the people for 1 1/2 hours or we had to wait for an hour until the entrance fee for the park was paid. On the last day we were out of the park after an hour because a new traveler had a village visit in his activities.

Professional and flexible team player
The trip to Zanzibar via Mombasa and dar es salaam was an adventure of a lifetime. My expectations in terms of communication, efficiency and the tour were exceeded.

We experienced manapools.com as a very reliable, competent and flexible company.
We spent a great time in Zimbabwe, which we owe to a beautiful country, affectionate people and of course the excelent organisation from Ant and his team of Manapools.com. A few weeks before we started I could clarify quite some questions concerning the planning via phonecall(whatsapp) and Ant really tried his best to find good solutions for every request. Staying at Sunbird Guesthouse in Harare we enjoyed the time very much as everyone tried to let us feel like home. We then hired two 4x4 cars with rooftents that were ideal for our roundtrip to Matopos, Lake Kariba, Chizarira NP and Manapools. The campsites at Manapools and Chizarira were perfectly prebooked by Ant, as it was impossible to do so from abroad, and all worked out very well. Knowing to be able to contact the company at any time, if there were problems, we could really relax and enjoy the stay.
I can highly recommend Manapools.com to organize a trip to, despite some challenges, a beautiful country with great people. "Tatenda" to Ant and his team!

Great availability and very attentive to customer needs
We chose Rams Safari for our excursions to Moremi Game Park and Mokoro after reading the reviews on the sites. We can confirm that both were unforgettable experiences. Elias, who accompanied us to Moremi, after countless sightings of elephants, zebras, giraffes, impalas, antelopes, finally managed to show us a lion that had just finished eating its prey. Gatlo, our canoe driver in Mokoro, never tired of revealing all the curiosities of animals and plants of his beloved land.

Excellent
I and my colleagues booked a three day Entebbe Kampala trip with Beautiful safaris Uganda where we hard a magical experience with a very informative Guide. We visited the Uganda wildlife conservation education centre where we carried out the behind the scenes experience and keeper for day that was full of fun and information sharing about the wildlife captive management, we went for the Mabamba shoe bill excursion in Entebbe, the visit to Kampala city with in the kasubi tombs, The kabaka's lake and many other attractions within the city. Beautiful safaris Uganda did us well and we enjoyed to our expectations and I highly recommend there services.
One of the best days!
I have just got back from a 1day Safari tour to Pilanesberg today which was everything it was billed to be. The driver Sunny was so helpful and informative and friendly to be with. Pick up was fine and all the timings during the day worked ok. We saw so many animals including lions and elephants up close. The park guide was very informative. Well worth the price of the trip. Would recommend.

They have an excellent team right from people who booked us in,We were engaged and I think they do
We absolutely loved doing this tour around Queen Elizabeth National Park Uganda and would recommend it to ANYONE who wants to do the same experience Our guide was brilliant - super friendly, helpful, considerate and extremely knowledgeable - educating us not only on the food element but about Nature.He took us around 3 different markets - a meat market, a fish market and a vegetable market. We had a perfect mix of picking / tasting different foods at the market stands and road sides but then also a few chances to sit down in the café areas and enjoy larger tasting dishes. The description says that you don't get "lunch", just snacks, which is true but you will definitely come away feeling VERY full from all the tasters. From seeing Lions,Pumbas and lots of buffalo's and Kobs Thank you again,we wouldn't have wanted anybody else to show us around
It was a fantastic weekend escape and definently beseech you to try out the same.
