We had a 5-Star trip!
This was our first safari, we were a group of 2 couples, and our experiences really quite extraordinary. We want to thank everyone at Earthlife, from our first contact Angel who promptly answered our many questions while deciding which company to use, to our last driver Casey in Zanzibar, but especially our safari guide, Joseph. Our itinerary included 8-day safari (Arusha, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngoongoro) and 5 days in Zanzibar. Joseph is a driver-, spotter-, birder-extraordinaire, a lot of fun and he made the best coffee each afternoon! The truck was cleaned inside and out each night, he ensured we were all comfortable and involved and even made lunch suggestions to the chefs. Thank you Joseph! You really made this safari the best!

Maasai Mara Getaway
John of Keshi tours has always been my go to guy for excellent holiday planning, right from selection of ideal destinations to my itinerary. As always, he went above and beyond my expectations to plan an affordable, exciting trip to the Mara. I enjoyed my stay as well as the game drives thanks to our awesome guide Kisingisi! We got to see 4 of the big five thanks to the guide's fervent efforts to keep searching despite the rainy and cold weather. Thank you Keshi Tours for your meticulous effort to ensure I got my money's worth.

We loved every minute of our stay at Sabi Sabi!
We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary at Sabi Sabi Selati Camp, that wouldn't have been possible without the help from Andy Saidy at African Travel Consultants. We contacted many agents looking for something special and all offers we received were substandard, Andy found us 3 nights at Sabi Sabi Selati Camp and what a place that was. The best part is paying the discounted rate which Andy offered, I never knew South Africans qualified for special rates at Sabi Sabi! We are grateful for the experience and we are very happy to recommend African Travel Consultants and Andy Saidy in particular.

Great experience and top service
Kenya Safaris Holiday since the very first stages in the organisation of our holiday provided the kindest and most professional service. Simon, the manager, was very helpful, also regarding other aspects of our trip not directly connected to the safari, and Peter, the driver and safari guide, was kind, professional and helpful throughout the three days he spent with us. I strongly recommend Kenya Safaris Holiday for a memorable experience.

Amazing safari holiday with ATC!
I had the pleasure of communicating with Sally from Rhino African Travel Consultants, Sally was incredibly responsive, patient and proactive. We worked very hard to design our itinerary with respect to our budget, dates and hotels / lodges selection. She made bookings with lodges so that our space would be guaranteed while we considered our different options and she did a great job following up and through with us. I really admire Sally's attention to detail and professionalism.

Amazing Experience All Around
Our experience with safari bookings was fantastic!! 8 of us in our group all had a once in a lifetime trip on the 3day safari. I booked everything through Jimmy who basically became our travel agent for any and everything we needed arranged! He had rides for us to and from airports and hostel suggestions for the days prior and after the safari. Everything ran smooth and on time and was professional and higher than our expectations! The food prepared by our chefs on the safari were a pleasant surprise too we really enjoyed it even though that was something we were worried about! The camping arrangements were top notch as well! Camping one night in the central Serengeti and another night on the rim of the ngororongo crater - we were in awe! The tents and sleeping bags were cozy as well, although you may want to bring a pillowcase and stuff some clothes in it to use as a pillow! During the safari I think we saw just about every animal we could think of - it was as if we’d name an animal we wanted to see next and out of nowhere boom it was right in front of us. There were 8 of us total in our group and not a single one of us has anything negative to say about this experience. A great deal budget camping for a safari and an overall fantastic experience! DO IT!

Loved it!!!!!
Me and my husband have just finished a 6 day safari, it was amazing!! We saw all the animal's we wanted too, including all of the big 5 (not guaranteed for obvious reasons, we have been really lucky with the animals) when booking a shared toured you have to understand that others will be joining you and leaving your group at different times so you have to be accommodating to this, we liked this because we got to meet a few different people along the way, our driver was Felix, he was brilliant, gave us facts about each animal and answered all our questions! There was long drives involved but felix made sure we had frequent stops and extra stops when we asked to use the wash room(or bush!) We couldn't have wished for a better driver he was very accommodating especially when a member of our group fell ill, we adjusted our itinerary to get him to a hospital, felix went in with them made sure they where seen and looked after (it wasnt anything serious, he just needed antibiotics) when i first emailed the company a gentleman called Willis got in touch and answered all my questions and advised on different packages and generall things about a safari, i would highly recommend this company.

Awesome Safari experience!
We did the four day Safari with Shadows: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
Since initially contacting them we got the response from Inge who was super helpful during all the process of deciding what to do and where to stay. She also helped with all practical questions such as weather, clothing, tips, etc.
Our tour guide was Moody and he was absolutely amazing. He always tried hard to get us everywhere so that we could spot all the animals with the best views.
He has lots of experience and was able to respond all of our questions with knowledge.
The food was very good and we had picnic lunches including soup, a few options for main dish and some fruit or desert. Everything served with proper plates and cutlery which is nice.
We would 100% recommend Shadows and Moody as a Safari guide.

Bucket list trip
Really could not have asked for a better trip to serengeti and ngoro ngoro crater. Our guide was super knowledgeable at explaining everything we saw and ensuring we got to see everything, the food was amazing and we had a great time sharing beers and laughs with the other people on our tour. My first experience camping but it was comfortable with good facilities! We had an unforgettable experience in such an amazing part of the world, really recommend this tour :)
