Best in class for wildlife
5/5

I do wildlife photography as a hobby and Albert from Serengeti Smile was able to customize a trip for my family with all the hotspots for animal encounters. Our guide John, a pro-level spotter cared a lot for us and Albert did the extra mile to find room for us in our favorite lodges despite them being fully booked. We travelled with a 3 generation family and everything came out to be above expectations. Best deal in town.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Arina Wild Adventures!

I and my family had the most incredible trip to the Masai Mara, all thanks to Arina Wild Adventures! A huge thank you to Miss Lian for organizing every detail so thoughtfully – everything ran smoothly, and it was clear how much care and effort went into planning the itinerary.

A special mention goes to our amazing guide, Mr. Simart. His deep knowledge of the wildlife, friendly personality, and great sense of humor made each game drive not only exciting but also incredibly fun. He had a remarkable ability to spot animals and shared so many interesting facts along the way – truly a highlight of the trip!

The game drives were beyond breathtaking – we saw the Big Five and so much more, up close and in their natural habitat. It was a dream come true! Equally memorable was our visit to a local Maasai village, where we got to learn about Maasai culture firsthand. It was an enriching and humbling experience that added a deeper dimension to the adventure.

I wholeheartedly recommend Arina Wild Adventures to anyone looking for an authentic, well-organized, and unforgettable safari experience. Their exceptional commitment to creating meaningful travel experiences really shines through. Thank you again, Miss Lian and Mr. Simart, for a journey I’ll always treasure!

Amazing from beginning to end
5/5

As an avid traveler who has been all over the world, from the moment I initiated contact with Apodiformes Adventures, the experience was above and beyond. Fredrick, a Tour Consultant at Apodiformes Adventures was extremely efficient and responsive to all my questions from beginning to end. Within the space of a single day, he surprisingly returned with different quotes as I requested and when everything was to my liking, deposit information with payment instructions was provided and it was smooth sailing thereafter. Our safari tour would not begin on the day of our arrival in Nairobi, however he arranged for airport pickup with no additional fees. Our guide/driver was Jackson and he made our experience just wonderful out in the Masai Mara. He was attentive to how we wanted to schedule the game drives and showed true appreciation and care for the animals as he spotted them throughout the plains with his eagle eyes. I really could say so much more but the conclusion is if you are thinking about a trip to the African continent, you will not regret choosing Apodiformes Adventures to take care of everything. Thank you Fredrick and Jackson for a spectacular birthday trip for my husband and I… 5 stars is just not enough.

Gail is meticulous and because of attention to details, we had a phenomenal trip with nothing but g
5/5

Our adventure to Africa started from a recommendation of relatives who had used Pembury Tours in the past. We are seniors and wanted the best value for our travel dollars, but really wanted a new , fresh experience , preferably outside of Canada-but not North America. I was dealing with major issues so my girlfriend took charge. With Gail's guidance, suggestions and knowledge of local practices, the two of them created the best trip ever.. We had no issues. Tours were met on time, accommodations were interesting (one used to be a prison) and top notch, culinary offerings were unbelievable and so good, and the local hosts, guides and drivers were wonderful. Our first of 3 safaris was an experience I will never forget. Our Ranger and Tracker had knowledge that was freely shared and their mutual respect for the animals and the flora was unmatched. Our safety was evident, even in the confines of the Lodge itself. Arathusa Lodge are amazing ambassadors for their homeland! All of our regional carriers and drivers were on time and very helpful. I would recommend Airlink to anyone travelling within the continent. We saw so much, we were busy- but not pushed to exhaustion- and we all so appreciated absolutely everything Gail and her support people had to offer us. The price was fair and affordable and excellent value. We had experiences no one would put a price on. Thank you Gail for everything!

We highly recommend Abner Safaris for a safe, customized and enriching safari in Kenya
5/5

We recently enjoyed a private safari trip with Abner Safaris, and it was truly the best experience of our lives. Everything was seamless, professional and well-planned. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, and warm, patient and made sure we had the best possible experience. We were able to see the Big Five, enjoy breathtaking sunrises over the savannah and visit local communities which gave us a real sense of Kenyan culture. The itinerary was perfectly tailored to our interests, the accommodation was comfortable and pleasant and the entire trip struck a great balance between adventure and relaxation. Every detail was considered and we felt well looked after throughout the adventure. We highly recommend Abner Safaris for a safe, customized and enriching safari in Kenya.

Committed to providing the best experience
5/5

We went on a 12 day Tanzania tour starting end of May. What an amazing experience it turned out to be. We (family of 4 including a 10y and a 14y kids) decided on Tanzania as the destination for our next big vacation. After going through numerous itineraries, tour operator reviews and forum discussions on TripAdvisor we finalized a 12 day photography and migration safari by African Big Cats Safaris(ABCS) . The itinerary was finetuned to our preferences by Mr William Frank and once finalized we prepared for the tour with valuable inputs from Ms Naomi.
Mr Immanuel the manager of the company met us on the first day of the tour and explained the itinerary in detail and set the tone for the tour with his passionate description of what to expect on each day of the tour. From then on the wonderful tour was carried forward by our guide Mr Lovoi, a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable man. Who just knew where to find each of the animals. He would explain the characteristics of every bird and animal we came across. There was never a dull moment with him and he kept us fully interested in the safari for 12 days.
All the accommodations provided were great in care and comfort.
A big thanks to The African Big Cats Safaris and Tanzania for providing this unforgettable experience.
I will definitely recommend them to everyone

An Unforgettable Experience in the Masai Mara – Highly Recommend Jocky Tours & Safaris!
5/5

We had an amazing 3-day safari in Masai Mara with Jocky Tours & Safaris. Everything was well organized, and the team was always quick to help with any questions. Our guide, Solomon (Asante Sana!), was incredibly helpful, attentive, and did everything he could to ensure we saw as many animals as possible – and we really did! From lions and elephants to rare species, every game drive was unforgettable. Solomon also shared interesting facts about the animals, nature, and local culture, which made the trip even more special.

The Masai Mara itself is absolutely stunning – the landscapes, the sunsets, the wildlife – a true bucket list experience.

We’re so grateful for the experience and highly recommend Jocky Tours & Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. Professional team, excellent service, and memories to last a lifetime!

Best Tour Guide Ever
5/5

As someone who’s fairly well-traveled and usually plans every detail of my trips myself, coming to Africa and relying on a local operator was a bit outside my comfort zone. The sheer number of tour options available is both incredible and overwhelming when you’re just getting started.

Ultimately, I narrowed it down to three operators who responded to my inquiry quickly and thoughtfully. Of those, Amshar (Edward) stood out immediately—he was incredibly responsive, patient, and easy to work with from day one.

Even after booking, I was still unsure about what to expect since I wasn’t in control of every reservation like I usually am—but once I arrived, I was absolutely blown away. From the moment I was picked up at the airport to every hotel check-in and everything in between, the logistics were seamless and so well organized.

The accommodations were fantastic, and our guide, Loth, was hands down the best tour guide I’ve ever had. He was kind, flexible, and always ready to accommodate whatever we needed. The vehicle was stocked with cold water, sodas, and snacks at all times. The music was always up for requests—or full takeovers—and Loth’s insights and information made every moment more enriching.

And all of this was before the actual safari, which was truly a once-in-a-lifetime, life-changing experience. Loth played a huge part in making it so memorable. We chatted, we laughed, we jammed to music—and we saw all the animals. I can’t recommend this experience enough.

The best guides
5/5

We had a wonderful experience! The lodges they booked for us were incredible, we saw many animals, and the best part for us were the guides! Moses and Jeff were two of the most kind and welcoming people we have met we are so grateful they were our guides. It truly made the safari experience that much more top tier.
