Above & beyond
I was looking to book a family trip for my dad's 70th birthday and contacted several agencies. Emmah was absolutely stellar, getting back to us quickly, answering all questions and offering several options to choose from. We picked a four day safari through masaai mara and lake nakuru, staying in aa lodge and sarova woodlands. Both were excellent value, clean and comfortable, and totally appropriate for my parents. Our guide Sammy was amazing, kind, knowledgeable and a great laugh to boot. He didn't rush us at all and was happy to stay later in the park until we spotted all the animals. The experience is unforgettable and I totally recommend Hyrax. Emmah also helped us out with finding tickets for the elephant sanctuary in Nairobi at really short notice, which was incredible as we thought we wouldn't be able to go. Emmah, you really made our stay in Kenya - thank you!!!

Amazing team for an incredible experience hiking Mt Kenya!
This was my first multi-day trek and at altitude so I was a bit nervous, but the Equitorial Star Team made sure I made it to the summit with ease! Duncan provided all the information I needed before I arrived, arranged my equipment rental and transport, and was quick to respond to my questions. Patrick, the guide for my trek, was incredibly patient, motivating, and knowledgable about when to go fast and when to take your time. He also answered my many questions about the various sights along the way. Juma, the chef, made great meals that kept me going on long days in rain and snow, and the porters Samuel and Julius were always willing to lend a hand.
In short—I highly recommend Equitorial Star, worth every penny for a once in a lifetime experience! I also recommend the 5 day route going up Sirimon and down Chogoria. Summit day is very long (10+ hours), but you get the benefit of a more scenic route down and ending with a hot shower and private room for your last night.

Kerry goes above and beyond!
We had the most amazing experience with Pembury Tours. We were a little worried because most of our planning was done over email but when we arrived to South Africa everything was planned and paid for as promised. There were no surprises in price etc. Our trip was incredibly organized and so much fun!! It was catered to our exact requests. We had a private driver who also served as our tour guide while in Cape Town, she was lovely. Kerry was always in touch and quick to respond to us if we had any concerns (there weren't many!). This trip was so well put together that we weren't stressed at all. The itinerary we had scheduled was also flexible day by day depending on what we wanted to do, which was such a nice benefit. We will 100% be using Pembury Tours again and have already recommended it to the people we know who are planning to visit Africa. Thank you so much to Kerry for your efforts in making our honeymoon memorable. We can't wait to come back to Africa.

Unique tour with Herry
We had unforgettable days with Herry on our safari through the Tentend Camps of Tortellis. The Serengeti, Lake Manjara and Tarangire really impressed us with their diversity of animals and Herry had an answer to every question. He was also a perfect driver and guide on the very challenging roads towards Serengeti. We couldn't have imagined a better guide.

Supportive, flexible, honest and dependable
The team at Campsafari are probably the most attentive and caring team I have ever met, from the initial enquiry, through to building us a customized holiday, and then wow, the experience itself. These guys excel at customer service and customer engagement. I can’t recommend them highly enough

Friendly, communicative and awesome Safari!
We had an amazing private safari tour with Njoo to travel and our guide Omery. We did the Mikumi and Sealous (Nyerere) reserves and although is was a long drive between the two, we’re glad that we did both as they were very different and we had some unique experiences in each. Every part of our tour was private whereas a lot of the other tours we saw were bigger groups. We went for mid level accommodation and it was basic (but fine) in Mikumi and a really nice lodge in Selous. Our guide Omery was amazing, he knew everyone and always had the scoop on where to go to find the action including big groups of lions hunting and a male eating it’s prey. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour provider, everything ran like clockwork!

It was truly awesome! I loved how involved our guides were. They genuinely care about our wellbeing and overall enjoyment. Plus they love their job and are truly so knowledgeable about the animals and location! I highly recommend trying Jamie Safari’s!

Amazing experience.
We're just back from an amazing 3 day safari in the Masai Mara. Lucy was brilliant, everything from the professional quote she issued, to her timely responses to my questions. She explained everything so well and made the booking so easy. Our driver was Anthony, who is an exceptionally experienced and skilled driver. After a huge thunderstorm with extremely heavy rain he was able to get us to waterlogged parts of the park that other drivers could not, even stopping along the way to rescue another vehicle from the mud. He made it his priority that we saw all the animals and his sharp eyes ensured that we did.
We stayed in Jambo Mara Lodge which was perfect. The glass lodges are exactly like in the photos!
We had an amazing experience and I would not hesitate in recommending Savannah Woods Safaris.
