Once in a lifetime experience !
Everything was perfect ! We were with Ezekiel and he was one of the nicest person I have ever met. He was absolutely perfect as he was kind, gentle, patient, helpful and always being attentive about all our requests. Thanks to him, we were able to see every animal in its natural habitat and we couldn’t be happier to witness this great experience ! He was always trying to find animals so we can have the best shots and to be the closest to the animals. We were able to see lions, cheetahs, group of elephants coming by our car and I think we were really lucky to have him as he was always trying to get us the best food ever ! Thank you so much for this experience, it was amazing, I recommend anyone doing this safari with Ezekiel !

Never arrived
Never arrived at pick up point for a booked and paid for activity.
Very poor communication.

A company that would give you the best experience during your trip
we did a 15-day safari through Uganda in which we really saw everything. Our guides Solomon and Abraham have ensured that this is truly an experience we will never forget.
in addition to what they promise to show us in the document you put together with them, they do their best to go the extra mile. they want to give you a real uganda experience with local food, community tours and are always ready to answer your questions. they know where the good places for tourists to spend the night where you immediately feel comfortable and safe. communication went well and if any changes had to be made, this was communicated well.
in short, I recommend everyone to book his or her trip to East Africa with SCB tours and travel, they are good at what they do and do just that little bit more than what you expect, so they deserve this good review.
solomon and abraham, thank you again very much for this unforgettable experience

1 day safari to Nyerere park
It was a unique short but very intense experience .. we had a jeep all to ourselves with two fantastic guides who allowed us to see many animals in their natural habitat (lions, elephants, wildebeests, giraffes, monkeys, zebras ecc)

Amazing
It was such an incredible experience, there is no words to describe it !
Idrissa is a master chief, he makes a variety of delicious meals. Benji is a passionate guide, he takes time to show us savanna scenes, answer our questions and share his knowledge. Thanks to him, we live 5 intense days with exchange, humour, african music and games

The tour owner had no control over self planned / sub contracted portions of the tour.
The tour started on a wrong note and things went south from day 1. Internal communications or lack thereof led to confusion and ultimately exclusion of agreed upon destinations (Equator). The tour was plagued with lesser number/s of rooms being booked (for a party 30 strong) which led to endless arguments and compromises wherein the tour operator took a back seat and 'never' stepped in to take ownership of the situation. On multiple occasions the party was starving for food with the last meal having been taken 10 hours or so back. There were tourists with medical condition/s (diabetes for me) which literally put us at huge risks all due to the lack of planning and foresight of the tour operators. The balloon ride was booked for 28 people only whereas our party was 30 strong. Here again the operator just took a back seat during the proceedings and we finally had a couple of volunteers who gave up their spot/s for the rest of us. No compensation was offered to the folks who gave up their seats. The tour was in the planning for almost a year and the end product was flawed all the way thru. The tour owner met us on day 1 and then on the last day whereas during the planning phases he had committed to being with our party on all the days. The tour owner was also not 'Contactable' throughout the ordeal. The scant respect and lack of support to the touring party is the worst I have seen in my lifetime and believe me I have seen a few in all of my 65 years.

Made our journey magic.
We had a great expeeince with morningstar, Dennis helped us with our journey and made it magic. They picked us up at the airport, on time and very helpful. And the driver Alex was very good, he knew where to go on game drives, knew the area and people there. And he also had respect and knowledge for the animals. So we had a great time, had two boys 17 tears and 15 years with us, and they had the best trip ever I think. So I will with no doubt recommand Morningstar travel and tours for everyone. Thank you❤

Smooth safari with every string attached
Our 10 day safari with a leg to Diani Beach was awesome. Pre-planning with the owner Robert was very professional and helpful. Choice of hotels, final itinerary, attention to details, this agency did everything right. We are very grateful for the peace of mind through the whole experience. Our guide John Muhoi was a very pleasant companion to both my wife and I. Very knowledgeable, funny, quick-witted, charming. We learned a lot about the fauna and flora, of course, but more importantly about Kenyan people and society, its struggles and prospects. This guy is a true humanist with a big heart. Asante sana to him.
On the safari side, Maisha Mara Camp in Masai Mara Park was perfect. 5-star experience throughout. If you are into flamingos, skip Lake Nakuru (not much to see there) and go to Lake Bogoria instead (the beautiful lake is covered with a pink blanket, surely hundreds of thousands of birds). Lake Bogoria Resort & Spa was close to ideal too. Nice staff, good food, manucured grounds, great pool. Can't ask for more.
We recommend Explorer Kenya any day of the week !

Highly recommended
We have just returned from an 11-day safari in Uganda. I can highly recommend the tour operator "Kajie Safari". Even in advance, our questions were always answered immediately and competently. We also received a receipt for our payments immediately.
Our guide Ben took care of our well-being; he knows a lot about the animals and also told us a lot about the country and its people.
We were accommodated in very clean and very nice lodges. All in all: Kajie Safaris is a hot tip!
