Ensured our safari experience was all we hoped for
Fabulous from beginning to end. Returning to my country of birth with my family, I wanted to showcase Kenya and I certainly did with Spirit of Kenya. Communication with Vanessa was prompt and efficient and our guide and driver, Mike was amazing. We saw many, many animals and and he ensured it was adventurous and exciting. Highlights included watching families of elephants at the waterhole in the Abederes and discovering juvenile lions in Samburu. Our accomadation was amazing and gave us a ttue taste of safari adventure. Asante sana, Spirit of Kenya.

Excellent and highly organised - recommend
Everything was perfect! The trip was very well organised, including the accommodation that exceeded our expectations. The agency was very responsive throughout the booking process, the trip and after. Our driver Gadi was amazing throughout the trip - he was friendly, listened to what we wanted and made a lot of effort to ensure we maximised the time in the park / Ngorongoro. Highly recommend!

Our expectations were exceeded
our tour was planned specifically according to our wishes. At first we were a little unsure whether booking and payment processing with a company from Tanzania was trustworthy. But our concerns were completely unfounded. Everything went smoothly.
Our safari went through Tarangire National Park, the South, Central and North Serengeti and finally the Ngorongoro Crater. The tour planner, Justice Justin, accommodated our every special request. We wanted a certain luxury in the wilderness and were not disappointed. The lodges selected were excellent. At the Maramboi Lodge the direct proximity to the lake and the animals. In the Kubu Kubu and the Mara Mara Logde the locations are in the middle of the Serengeti and the wilderness. At night we heard lions, hyenas and other animals near our tent.
Our guide Karim has excellent knowledge of German and was able to give us lots of details about the country's wildlife, nature and culture. Despite the rather difficult road conditions, we always felt safe in the Jeep. We had great encounters with all the big cats (lions, leopards and cheetahs), large groups of elephants and of course giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, gazelles, impalas, hyenas, warthogs etc. We also saw a rhinoceros in the distance. It is impossible to list them all. The birdlife is also impressive.
The highlight of our trip was the great migration. We saw several thousand wildebeest crossing the Mara River in the northern Serengeti. The earth shook under the animals' hooves. Young animals lost their mothers and ran back across the river, as did mothers in search of the lost young. A breathtaking event.
Luckily, the journey back from the Northern Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Crater wasn't quite as strenuous as expected. The view from the crater rim of Melia Ngorongoro Logde is incredible. The game drive in the Ngorongoro Crater was a worthy end to this extraordinary safari.
Many thanks to the African Big Cats team.

7-Day Machame Climb
Elisante (owner) and the whole team at Kisambi tours were fantastic from start to finish. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough for a Kilimanjaro climb.
From quote stage Elisante was clear, helpful and professional (and the price was great). He allowed us to choose any route and date which meant my friend and I could choose a full moon summit as we had hoped. In the lead up to the trip he was also helpful and gave me great confidence.
Once in Tanzania he arranges airport pickups at the standard rate and can organise accommodation and other activities. The day before the climb we met for gear check and briefing, and again I was very impressed at how professional and helpful they were. Driving us to gear rental shops and a cafe, and also arranging a day trip to Materuni village and water falls (amazing) for us. You are very well taken care of with Kisambi!
On the mountain the team could not have been better. The trip was the height of luxury, better than some hotels I’ve stayed in! Comfortable beds, food so good that we thought the chef must have been a magician, and two highly experienced guides at our side through it all. We felt that the whole team really wanted us to succeed and that they were all doing everything they could for us to. Incredible people, each and every one.
When the climb was difficult on the summit night, our guides high experience became very clear. They make it look so easy and with their help, we made it. I can’t imagine having climbed it with anyone else, they were incredible.
If you’re considering a Kilimanjaro climb (or any tourist activity in Moshi) then Elisante is the man to speak to. I have full confidence in recommending him and will be giving him a call when I eventually return. Thank you Elisante, and thank you to our whole team!

5 Day Adventure
The customer responses when we first contacted Bievenido were fast and informative. We knew exactly what to expect as far as accommodations. they picked us up from our Air BnB and dropped us at our airport at the end. We had excellent guides who found the animals and educated us about them. It was the experience of a lifetime and we highly recommend them to anyone, even families with kids.

Amazing Kenya adventure!
Our safari with Spirit of Kenya was amazing! Africa, nature and people have stolen our hearts!
Both parks that we visited, Amboseli and Masai Mara, surpassed our expectations! Our guide Lucas was so nice, and patient, and engaged - thanks to him we have a lifetime memories! He did his best to let us take as best pictures as possible! He always found the position where we had the closest possible look at animals. Despite the fact, that we didn’t have the professional camera, we took some memorable pictures.
We’ve seen a lot of animals and are already thinking about next safari, to see more of them again!
Accommodation was really good everywhere where we went, but The Kibo Safari Camp in Amboseli was so special! What a vibe that place has! We really felt like we belong there! Very cozy, homely, awesome camp! And comfortable and stylish at the same time.
What we enjoyed a lot, was a lunch in the Masai Mara park!
What made us feel very well taken care, was the André (journey manager) help from the very beginning. I had a lot of worries and doubts, and thanks to his patience and support through the whole process (and my most stupid questions), I felt so much more secure.
We hope we will be able to repeat it as soon as possible!

Good, serious company, we had no problem and had a lovely time traveling with them.
"Our trip through Uganda with Yaneta Safaris was filled with exciting experiences. Communication with the agency was smooth via WhatsApp and they generally did their best to accommodate our needs and fulfill our prior arrangements. There was a bit of rush right before the trip, but everything turned out fine. We were especially impressed with our guide/driver, Erik. He was a great conversationalist, knowledgeable, and always ensured we felt comfortable. He truly cared about our accommodations, food, and overall well-being. Thanks to him, our trip was outstanding. Overall, choosing Yaneta Safaris was a great decision and we will definitely hire them again for our next African adventure."

My brother and I had the pleasure to meet Kipe and spend time with him. We loved the way he loves his work, he is so young but so enterprising. He brought us to a masai village and took us very nice pics because our phone was broken (super kind ❤️).Next time we will book for sure a tour with his company.

Habitat Adventures Travel + Goodluck = Best way to visit Tanzania
We honeymooned in Tanzania and were lucky to have Goodluck as a guide for our trip, which would not have been the same without him.
Our trip included visits to Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Serengeti National Park and Tarangire National Park.
Having a guide as experienced as Goodluck ensures that you can enjoy a wonderful country, enjoying the safaris in the national parks as well as visiting Massai villages and learning about Tanzanian culture. He has an extraordinary knowledge of wildlife and its habitats, as well as an exceptional personality and an engaging sense of humour that will add to your trip. His experience makes the trip schedule optimal, allowing you to enjoy all aspects of the trip.
We travelled with the company Habitat Adventures Travel, ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDABLE to visit Tanzania and East Africa, offering an excellent service.
We will definitely return to Tanzania with Goodluck.
