Amazing time on safari with Mufasa!
5/5

From our initial enquiry Joel was very helpful and replied straight away. We were able to arrange pick up from our friend's private address.

We cannot praise our guide Daniel enough. He has an expert knowledge of the wildlife and was able to spot them whilst we were driving around the reserves, his is a skilled and safe driver and a lovely man - we really enjoyed his company and he made the trip so wonderful for us. We didn't have to worry about anything.

We saw more animals than we had expected and so close up. We saw lions, cheetahs, a leopard, rhinos, buffaloes, pumbas, zebrs, hippos, my favourite giraffes, elephants with babies who just strolled past us whilst we had our picnic breakfast! All so close to us it was quite overwhelming! We went during the migration and saw the 2nd herd that had crossed - wildebeest and zebras who ran right passed us.

We chose the luxury option and were not disappointed. The Entim in Maasai Mara was really beautiful, the staff were amazing, the food excellent a la carte and you have Maasai to lead you to your 'tents' which are very comfortable.

We then moved to The Cliff in Lake Nakuru where as well as lionesses and cubs, giraffes and good viewing of rhinos we also saw the flamingoes which was so wonderful. Even without the wonder of seeing the animals The Cliff is such a beautiful place it would be worth going to just be there. The view, facilities and food are excellent and the staff are really friendly and efficient. Highlights would be the baboons with babies on their backs walking past the 'tent' and the staff lifting back the tent flaps early in the morning so you can sit in bed and watch the sunrise come up over the lake!

The final treat on the way back to Nairobi was a stop at Lake Naivasha where we had a boat trip across the lake passing close by to hippos both in and out of the water and then walking with a trained guide along with giraffes and zebra which was just amazing.

We would certainly recommend Mufasa Tours, Joel and Daniel to anyone coming to Kenya.

An Exhilarating Adventure with Hyrax Safaris
5/5

I recently had the privilege of embarking on a remarkable safari journey with Hyrax Safaris, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I booked my trip to the final farewell, every aspect of the experience was flawlessly executed, leaving me with unforgettable memories of wildlife encounters and breathtaking landscapes.

5/5

The journey through Namibia, together with my daughter Bárbara, was a fantastic experience! The variety of different animals of all sizes, as well as the constantly changing landscapes, were very impressive. One of the highlights was definitely the hot air balloon ride!
The various lodges we stayed at provided a very pleasant stay. The local staff (lodges, guides) were all very friendly and knowledgeable.
If you’re traveling as a self-driver, I would recommend a 4x4 vehicle.

Great service from Lenchada Safaris accompanied by an experienced tour guide Richard who had good knowledge about the game drives and the concentration of animals in each game park.

Would definitely recommend someone to book through Lenchada Safaris

A magical first safari experience with Zohar safaris
5/5

This was our first time visiting Tanzania and Zohar safaris provided excellent support before, during and after our trip. We had a phenomenal 6 days organised by Josephine and the team at Zohar, starting in Arusha and then visiting Tarangiere, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. We could not fault the companies communication, organisation and genuinely warm and friendly support whilst we were in Tanzania. We chose to stay in mid-range lodges/camps throughout our safari. The lodges we stayed in were clean, high quality and very comfortable. The beds in the Serena hotels were outstanding!

Our guide, Solomon, was a real asset to the team at Zohar. Anyone being guided by him will have an excellent time. He was professional, enthusiastic and made sure we always felt safe. He had an abundance of wildlife knowledge and was always trying to ensure we stopped and learned about what we were seeing, referencing encyclopaedias as we travelled. My partner is particularly interested in birds, and Solomon took a lot of time to point out specific birds he felt would be of interest. We are were also interested in photography, so Solomon spent time trying to position the safari truck with appropriate lighting for good shots. The days are long on safari (often 10-12 hours out in the bush!) but Solomon always made sure we were comfortable and happy with the timings and length of the day.

We noticed many other guides were very quiet or stayed sitting whilst their groups were watching the animals. Solomon often stood with us and explained about the animal, or specific animal behaviour. We felt very lucky to have him guiding us. He also had incredibly good eyesight and could spot lion/cheetah/leopard/rhino from hundreds of meters away! He was often the first guide to see an animal, and then other guides followed him.

The small extra touches provided by Zohar made the whole experience feel very special for us both. It was a trip organised for our honeymoon, and we were made to feel very special at each lodge we arrived at. The whole trip felt very personal to us both.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Zohar to anyone who wants to feel genuinely welcomed by a company, provided with high quality guides and accommodation. We loved every day of our travels and hope to be able to return one day! Thank you for such an amazing once in a lifetime trip.
