Amazing holiday. Very happy we used them
We used Bright African Safaris for our 6 day safari trip+ 3 day beach resort at Zanzibar. Salim was our tour guide driver for the safari and it definitely felt like we got one of the best. We found out he has been doing this for over 13 years.
Amazing knowledgeable guide and I have no idea how he spotted all those animals without binoculars! Salim was friendly, courteous and ensuring we were comfortable throughout the journey.
What I liked most was their passion for what they do. Their genuine care for animals, and the environment was evident. They are one of the very few companies applying sustainable means of food packaging for lunches as well. Other operators use disposable boxes but this operator uses metal containers that they thoroughly clean and provide for each group of customers. I applaud the initiative.
Organising the trip was easy through their office as well and all the lodges were amazing. We are very impressed with the hospitality we have received and will be recommending to our friends as well.

Efficient, organized and honest
Me and my husband booked a Mikumi National Park 2 days, 1 night trip
What I liked about it :
The owner are really organized, helpful and honest, easy to deal with and to do things easily and effectively, I was happy dealing with Sylvia she is smart, very helpful and active
The hotel we spend the night in was very good and the dinner was delicious
What I didn’t like :
We had a very rough start, we supposed to start our trip 6:30
But there was a 1 hour delay, cause Henry the guide who supposed to pick us had a problem in his car so we waited for another guide
Also there was another delay in the way to the park, it supposed to be a 6 to 7 hour trip but it took way more than that we arrived 3:00 pm and we entered the park 3:30
Also we didn’t see the big cat ( the lion)
We should have went to Serengeti National Park instead so my advice if you can afford it go to Serengeti instead of Mikumi

most superb safari of my life!
I never knew this safari was going to be so superb and thought it would be a safari like any other. My brother and i had an great experience right from being picked up from the airport the way the chauffeur talked to excellent he was a good communicator. On getting to the hotel where we had booked one room with two beds the place was cool the king size beds. The best thing about the hotel was the view of the sunset and the mountains from the balcony, this made us feel the nature . we took snaps of the sunset and sunrise and sent them to our friends who wished that they had joined us.In the morning there nice buffet for an heavy breakfast . The most amazing part was on the tour itself got to see wild animals that i only heard about in and had seen in the movies like the lions. after the safari my brother forgot his wallet in the tour van and immediately he was called through the rooms phone and got back his wallet and nothing was missing from his wallet .Awesome safari it was .....what a feeling.

Unique experience! thanks to the Safari driver and Sylwia, the organizer, for making it happening
The Safari was a great experience. Our driver made a great job and effort to ensure that we could enjoy the maximum.
Also Sylwia, the Safari organizer, reacted very quickly once we had an issue, prioritizing the customer satisfaction and ensuring that everything was ok so that we could enjoy our holidays.
In short, a great and unique experience!

Perfect
Everything was perfect.
The tour operator was super friendly, reliable, e.g. always answering my questions within a day and doing everything to make me happy. The tour itself was fantastic and even better than expected since it was very short. Minor problems with the booked lodge were solved by the operator swiftly and professionally. I can fully recommend them and the tour to South Luangwa.

Good
Excellent communication specially by fredreena .she was there for us always and her choices for our accommodations were excellent
Except for planning of safari to Masai Mara —we had to go with some other driver and he of course gave more importance and privilege to his group

A truly amazing once in a lifetime experience
My wife and I spent 4 absolutely wonderful days with James from Wild Portrait! It is by far our most memorable tour experience to date and it is all due to James's passion for what he does and the fact that he is just an awesome person. Whether it was his keen senses leading us to the truly rare on multiple occasions (leopard feeding on its kill in a tree with her cub down below as an example), looking up from great conversation to realize the hours long drives are over or him making us feel absolutely at home in his homeland, James was the absolute best! We left Kenya with unforgettable memories and a true friend.
