An Adventure of a Lifetime
Nothing is perfect and I think we should go into every experience with an open mind. However, Timothy, Charles and the Extra Miles team go out of their way to make it as enjoyable as possible. If you want a personal and, more importantly personable experience Charles is the best guide in Kenya.

A complete and amazing experience!
My family and I had a wonderful 8 day Safari tour with Adam (our guide) to catch the Great Wildebeest Migration in the Northern Serengeti, and rest of Central Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangire National Parks. The team was very responsive and accommodating during the pre-trip organisation, and managed to offer an encompassing itinerary for our holiday idea. Adam was such an attentive and striving guide! He worked really hard to help us experience all the different sights during the trip. We really enjoyed the trip and felt lucky to see the sightings that we did. Would definitely recommend Sunset Africa!

Fantastic visit, unforgettable experience
We had a very short trip to Uganda to visit the mountain gorillas as part of a bigger trip to Africa. The experience was truly magical and unforgettable. Our driver and guide Warren was excellent. He had plentiful knowledge about the area and was happy to answer our questions and spoke very good English. He was always punctual and managed well on the chaotic Ugandan roads. We thought the gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest felt like very sustainable tourism. The gorillas and our safety were top priority. We found the gorillas fairly quickly and got to spend an hour watching their behaviours and saw many gorillas. It was absolutely amazing!! Communication with Speke Uganda prior to the trip was a little slow and not a lot of information was given except from a basic itinerary, but this didn't phase us as everything worked out well and there was Warren holding a sign with out name when we landed at the airport! Although the trip was expensive for 5 days, a big chunk of this was for the gorilla permit which gets redirected into the surrounding community and to the trackers/rangers helping to protect the gorilla populations. We would definitely use the company again.

5 out of 5 star experience
I had an absolutely incredible experience with Safari Soles. From start to finish, everything was exceptional.
The highlight of our adventure was undoubtably our guide, Estomih. He’s a true gem and made our journey unforgettable. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife, exceptional navigation skills and infectious enthusiasm truly enriched our experience. You must request him!
The entire team at Safari Soles was professional and very helpful throughout the trip. I cannot recommend this tour provider enough - if you are looking for the perfect trip, let Safari Soles turn your Safari into a once in a lifetime adventure!

Sammy is a great guide
We visited to Masai Mara in November 2022 and Sammy made sure that we do not miss any fun at the safari.
He is a great driver, guide and a complete entertainer.
We highly recommend everyone to ask for Sammy as their Masai guide.

Unforgettable safari experience!!
Serene is the best company I believe for travelling to Kenya. Though I requested several tour companies for quotes, Lucy, a tour arranger, was by far the quickest to get back to us and she provided accurate answers to any questions we had. I wanted a homestay at Masai village as an addition to my safari tour. When I consulted Lucy about this, she immediately contacted the agent to see if it was possible and put it into our itinerary, which was a completely different response from other safari companies which simply refused. Thanks to this, we not only went on a normal safari, but also took a walk with Masai people and my children played with Masai children, which was a very irreplaceable time for us.
Linus was a great safari guide and driver. We were able to travel with peace of mind because Linus was always with us from the airport to the safari. Linus has been a safari guide for over 20 years, and we often saw that he was admired by other safari guides during the tour. It seemed timing is important to see rare animals, we were impressed Linus was able to take us to exactly where the animals were based on his years of experience. My little son came down with a high fever during the trip, Linus was worried and bought us medicine, which was a big help. Also, we forgot my camera lens at the last sightseeing spot, but while we were on our way to the airport and didn't have much time, he worked with company staff and staff at the sightseeing spot to deliver the lens to the safari van. Really appreciated.
There are various things if I write it down in detail, but the Kenya trip was very rich and deep to us. If anyone is travelling to Kenya, I definitely would recommend Serene.

We wish to thank the Company „It Started in Africa” for professional management of and friendly care for our team “Naemi x 9” (as you used to call our group of friends and we liked it very much!
The itinerary seems to have been well devised and all was on schedule. The 3 lodges you chose for us were very good in terms of standard and services. We liked them also very much for their unique atmosphere and the beauty of landscape and we really appreciate such elements of surrounding.
We wish to express our special thanks to Maggie MD Bison Safaris , our drivers-guides. They drove very safely and carefully, were very nice, kind and helpful.
