Amazing experience
In September we went on our honeymoon to Tanzania and Uganda and we put it all together with Malika Travel.
We found this very pleasant. The contact was very nice, always easily accessible, helpful and you notice that they know a lot about it and can therefore advise you well and professionally.
The trip was really great and everything was arranged from A to Z, the accommodations were fantastic and the transport and guides were also great.
Carlijn and James, thank you very much again for everything.

Fantastic safari and fantastic organization
When I was looking for a company to do a safari with, I found dozens (hundreds?) of operators. However, I did not regret 1 second having decided for Wakanda and absolutely recommend them. I went for a 6 day camping group safari. The price was very fair in my view. The itinerary was great and I think quite ideal; it included two nights camping in Serengeti and one day at Ngorongoro crater. The safari itself was absolutely fantastic, the nature, the animals, the views, really breathtaking. Only Lake Manyara national park is a bit sad, as it is not in such good condition.
I think the safari experience really depends on your guide and your cook/chef (as the cars etc. are very similar). We were lucky, because we had Praise as our fantastic, friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable guide and Dullah as a terrific chef. I only eat vegetarian, and he always prepared delicious meals (the only issue was that I was full to quickly : )). If you can, ask for Praise and Dullah to accompany you.
The whole organization, arrangement, payment, also went very well, I was picked up from the airport in the beginning and dropped of at the hotel in the end, I could leave extra luggage with the company. Everything very smooth.

Great tour, more than expected
I've booked the best of uganda tour (at least that's what it's called here by the local travell office). It was a great tour! Our guide (Ivan) did a great job! He organized all very well. All Safaris were varied, because they were not only by car, but also by boat or foot.
Especially the safaris by foot were extraordinary experiences.

Amazing first safari experience
y husband and I recently went on our first safari in Namibia with Viatu, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. The trip went as planned, and a big thank you to Taryn, who customised our experience according to all our preferences.
We loved the attention to detail, the unique wildlife encounters, and the seamless organization that made our safari with Viatu an adventure of a lifetime. We can't wait to explore more with Viatu in the future!

Fantastic from start to finish
The few days we had with Morning Star Tours & Travel were incredibly well organised, with our lift from Nairobi to Amboseli being seamless. Our short stay at Amboseli was good, with the staff being friendly and the food great. The couple of game drives were awesome too, with our guide, Rono, being very much suited to my partner and I as he is a lovely chap who is always willing to answer questions and go the extra mile. Rono then drove us a considerable distance along some dodgy roads to Tsavo National Park (salt lick lodge) where not only we had a great room but the game drives were good and food absolutely amazing. After we left salt lick to come to Mombasa and Diani Beach, Rono drove us to the train station (all organised in advance with tickets bought) where we had a lovely journey down in 1st class with plenty of leg room and refreshments.
Rono is a credit to the tour provider and would highly recommend him to anyone going to this part of Kenya. Me and my partner wish him and his family all the best for the future.

100% Recommendable! Best Safari agency in Kenya: great guide/driver, safe and comfortable Safari
We booked our Safari with Mr. Wilson because we had some friends that did with them a Safari back in August 2022 and had an excellent experience.
We had an outstanding time in Kenya, we visited 3 national parks (Amboseli, Masai Mara and Nakuru), a volcano (Longonot) and Lake Navaisha. Our guide/driver Peter was amazing, with more than 15 years of experience doing Safaris he knew who to find all possible animals and did his best for us to have an unforgettable memory of our trip. Really appreciated his energy, sympathy and the safety he transmitted us during our trip.
Maasai Mara Train Safari is a super recommendable agency to book your Safari with. The price is totally fair with no hidden costs, since the first moment Mr. Wilson explained and help us organize the Safari to meet all our expectations.
Thanks very much Peter and Wilson!

It's not just about seeing the sights; it's truly experiencing the beauty of the land and its people
We had the most incredible journey with our guide Davis, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Davis is not only a passionate animal lover but also a wealth of knowledge about the natural world. Choosing to explore with this local organization was truly a game-changer for us. Normally, we prefer to travel without guides in African countries, but this experience opened our eyes to a whole new level of adventure and discovery.
What sets this organization apart is their genuine commitment to tailoring the experience to your preferences. We expressed our desire to stay exclusively at lodges under local management, and they made sure that every accommodation exceeded our expectations. From the lodges themselves to the delicious meals, everything was absolutely perfect.
Thanks to Davis and the team, we had an authentic and enriching vacation. It's not just about seeing the sights; it's about truly experiencing the beauty of the land and its people. If you're considering a trip with a local touch, I can't recommend this organization enough. Thank you, Davis, for making our journey unforgettable!

Perfect Trip
We booked a 4D3N Safari Tour to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. The communication with Karibu was easy and clear. Our driver Aruni was a super nice guy, who did everything he could, to make sure we have the best possible experience, literally driving the extra mile. I have nothing to complain about and can only recommend this tour operator. Thanks Aruni, for making this trip so perfect!

10/10! Big Five: check. Great food: check. Nice people: check.
Our 4 day day trip to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Park was an absolute blast.
We chose the camping budget version and did not regret it for a second. Our guide Mandela was 5/5 in terms of driving, knowledge, explanations, level of English, finding the animals (all big five and many more) and had some great humor.
The tents were clean, well prepared, warm and we had some stunning views out of the window. Washrooms exceeded our expectations by miles.
James was our man in the kitchen and we experienced some Serengeti style food Gordon Ramsay would have been proud of. It was excellent.
10/10 would recommend to go with Suricata, the guys are true professionals.
Cheers to you guys.
