A highly professional safari tour company
Most safari companies operating in the Serengeti area are very similar but.
Our guide had 14 years experience. He knew everybody and everything. This knowledge added to our overall experience as he (Azza) was able to explain everything we needed to know about the wildlife we were seeing.
To our surprise there is a fridge in your car offering unlimited water, bees and wine.
Azza could not do enough for us. He washed and sterilised his hands before setting out a table cloth and serving lunch. He would then tell us interesting facts about life in Tanzania. The car was cleaned inside inside every night.
After every tour, the Land Cruiser car is taken to an in house garage where twelve mechanics check the vehicle over before it is used again. Safety and reliability are key as we saw two overturned vehicles during our five day trip.
All guides must stay with you until you take off on your flight out of the park.
In summary, a five star company that are very experienced and go the extra mile. Thank you Gosheni.

Unique expérience!
My girlfriend and I booked 3 days of excursions with Topy tours (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Materuni).
These 3 days were amazing and varied! The first two days, accompanied by Assad, our guide, we had the chance to discover two of the most beautiful safaris in Tanzania! Assad was excellent, he knows the parks perfectly and made us go through different roads to avoid the multitude of tourists.
The crater of Ngorongoro is just incredible and full of animals of all kinds.
Finally, on the last day we visited the village of Materuni, accompanied by Manfred and God, a local guide. Really nice, they took us to the incredible waterfall 30 minutes walk from the village. We also shared a delicious and very pleasant meal, quiet perched in the mountains.
If we had to add a small negative comment, we were still very disappointed with the visit of a "Massai village". This is not included in the stay, and has nothing authentic. The inhabitants, after a small dance, brought us into the village, with the sole purpose of robbing us. Very oppressive, they are only after our money, it was not a very pleasant experience.
However, despite this little incident, we still had an incredible experience that we will not soon forget!
We highly recommend!

BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE
Masai mara was awesome and majical
This safari was majical. I made arrangements to visit Masai Mara during my vacation and Safari Update Travels made it possible. I arrived in the Mara in the afternoon hours and then set out straight for the afternoon drive. It was quite refreshing.
I also visited the local Masai village which was nearby so I was able to interact with many members of the community. The best part of the trip by far was our tour guide, Wycliffe. Besides being witty and having a deep sense of humour, Wycliffe is one of the kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. He went beyond his means to take care of us and make our trip memorable. Will definitely be back for another tour with Safari Update Travels in the future.

Just book with Kevic!
My experience with Kevic Tours & Travel has left me and my travel buddies beyond satisfied and reassured in a landscape where there was a lot of uncertainty. Having dealt with several tour operators prior to booking with Bob from Kevic, we found many hiccups, dishonesty and a lack of transparency. Kevic was a breathe of fresh air. Being our first safari, we were lost and didn't know what to book or how to do so.
Navigating through the tourism industry in a foreign country was daunting, especially since many operators with who had a many reviews didn't make us feel comfortable while booking and seemed like they were just pushing for a deposit without anything set in stone which worried us.
Disappointments with larger tour operators were all too frequent, marked by unexpected costs, hidden clauses, and a distressing lack of transparency. This was until I came across Kevic Tours & Travel. The exceptional responsiveness and clear communication from Bob, the manager, were like a breath of fresh air. He responded to every. single. email. (All of 45 emails) To update us, provide clarification, let us know of changes proactively so that we weren't faced with doubt or upset during our time in the Mara.
Bob’s genuine commitment to honesty was evident throughout our interaction. He was straightforward with all details, including cost and itinerary changes, offering much-needed transparency and eliminating all potential surprises. He managed to demystify the confusing terrain of safari planning and make it a truly enjoyable experience. Not once was I left wondering about hidden costs or ambiguous tour details. Every interaction was marked by the level of transparency that others in the industry could certainly learn from. He provided breakdowns with itnereraries whenever it was even the slightest change. This really set us at ease and show us how completely honest and hard-working Bob and his team were. their price was the most competitive of any tour operator on safari bookings.com beating out larger tour companies, and providing more bang for our buck.
We booked a four day fly an Safari, with airport, transfers, and had a driver and guide for all for days. Bob himself met us at the airport, traveled with us to Wilson airport, check to send himself, and ensure that we were ready to fly before parting ways. We arrived late the first day, but we immediately went on our first game drive, and also went on our last game drive prior to our leaving to the airstrip. Bob and his team maximized our time in Mara and checked on us every single day to ensure that our trip was going smoothly.
To conclude, my safari with Kevic Tours & Travel was extraordinary, greatly enriched by the dedication of Bob and his team to honesty, responsiveness, and clarity. I wholeheartedly recommend Kevic to anyone who is apprehensive in navigating this confusing atmosphere, looking to dive into a safari adventure without the typical anxieties that accompany dealing with most tour operators. We were 5 NYC guys who didn't even know where to begin and we just trusted in Bob, and he took care of the rest. If you're still unsure, give Kevic and they're team a try, you'll thank yourself later.

A fun Safari Adventure
We really enjoyed the five days safari with Masai, a top guide from Vervet Safari Tours. Basili the director had been very good during the booking process. He helped us to craft a nice itinerary that had all the places we wanted to visit and was within our budget.
We went to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and they were awesome. So many animals in the two parks that we have never been on such an action packed trip.
Basili had booked us in really nice accommodation spots that we enjoyed a lot. I have nothing but praise and appreciation for the great trip.Ulrih

Amazing
Kruger Safari has helped us tremendously. Starting with the booking process of our Safari where they were very detailed and helpful.
When we arrived at the airport in Johannesburg and discovered that one of our suitcases was left behind they helped us with taking care of getting the suitcase to our lodge in the middle of the bush.
I can say nothing bad about Kruger Safari and the service they have provided!
