Perfectly tailored to our needs and desires.
BOOK WITH ENCOUNTER AFRICA! we had the trip of a lifetime. The communication with the support staff was rapid and clear. The tour itself was an incredible experience made all the better by our attentive and knowledgeable guide Patrick who constantly went above and beyond. If you're interested in exploring Uganda and particularly if you are interested in wildlife and photography I would reccommend him highly.

Me and my brother really enjoined the travelling on the safari (Udzungwa-Mountains-Nationalpark and)
Our driver sixmundi had a big knowledge and we learn a lot about the culture, nature and the people. We see a lot of animals in Ruaha and the hike to the waterfall Sanje in Udzungwa-Mountains-Nationalpark was incredible! We spend more money that we expected, but it was worth for it! Thank you beena for all organizations in this short time!

Beyond the highest of expectations
Initially we were determined to self-book the entirety of the Safari trip as first time travelers to SA and first time safari experience. The available websites are informative but they do not come close to the wealth of information and convenience provided by our booking agent Natasha Allen. She found us an experience within our budget and matched to our appetite and even provided us with a number of options. She was never pushy and always helpful.
We attended 2 safaris, the first more rustic, the second in a lodge. Both had their own attributes that were very pleasing and we will definitely be returning once again. We saw all the wildlife we hoped to see and we felt that the experience was authentic with rangers and staff all being residents of the area.

Amazing trip.....Ute did a great job in organising the trip for us
- Quick and informative responses in the preparation of the trip.
- Whole trip was very well prepared and staff took very well care of us during our trip.
- All lodges and staff were great and very helpful. The accommodation at Pangolin has exceeded our expectations. The welcome entertainment (singing and dancing of the staff) at the Khwai Bush Camp was heartwarming.
- Special thank you to our tour guides Aubrey at Pangolin and Sinka at Khwai Bush Camp. They did a great job!

Great Safari! Beautiful way to experience Kenya
We had an amazing experience traveling with African Celebrity Tours. We first booked the 6-day safari tour from Colombia and Muli's communication was just great from the beginning. Information was more than clear and provided all trust we needed to make a decision.
The day after we got to Nairobi, Muli picked us up in our hotel and we started our safari. Our first stop was Amboseli National Park, then we visited Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru and last but not least we got to Masaai Mara National Park. It was an amazing experience and the itinerary was really well organized. The car was confortable (we went for the minivan) and the accommodation at Sentrim Hotels was really nice. Needless to say, the food was a-mazing.
During the whole time Muli was really friendly and helpful (and even earned a medal of honor when he rescued a bag that a baboon stole from us!! ...don't leave the car's windows open when you see those little guys on the road). He shared with us many things about Kenyan culture, the wildlife and national reserves and taught some Swahili words and expressions to us. We definitely enjoyed our time in Kenya and will be looking forward to come back to Africa some day for a longer safari.
Thank you Muli and Africa Celebrity Tours for making our first visit to Kenya as memorable as it was!

A perfect organization that allowed to fully enjoy with no stress. Antony and Charles are very kind.
A safari in the Maasai Mara is a once in a lifetime thing. So we wanted it to be perfect.
We compared 6/7 safari operator to find the best offer in order to optimize our 2.5 days, our wallet and our experience.
We finally booked out safari through Tazama with an accommodation at the Ilkeliani Mara Camp and it went way beyond our expectations.
Antony (Tazama’s director) and Charles (our driver/guide) were adorable and very helpful. We forgot our passports at our hotel and Antony went to pick it up for us and brought us back when we came back from the safari.
Since they picked us up at the hotel we booked in Nairobi, everything was 100% perfectly organized.
The gamedrives in the camp were also very successful. We saw all the animals several times (except the rhino), thanks to Charles.
The camp experience is also something. You get a tent in the middle of the forest, 10m from the river, very well equipped. You wake up with the baboons and the food is… truly amazing.
Tips: if you come for your birthday, don’t forget to let the team know. You’ll get a wonderful surprise.

Alfred made our safari and trip to the Kilimanjaro a very personal and unforgettable experience!
Alfred was recommended to us by friends and we ourselves would also recommend him. He is more than friendly, very flexible and always willing to help.

A Life-Changing Experience With a Top Company
What an extraordinary experience this was, in large part (really, 100%) thanks to the expertise and professionalism of Benson Safaris. From the initial planning to our final journey to the airport, everything ran smoothly and ensured that we had the best possible safari experience. In their front office, Pendo is a coordination wizard. She is responsive and patient, and answered all of the many questions we had before booking. Our guide, Amani, was phenomenal. Not only did we see all of the wildlife that we had hoped to see, but his friendliness and expertise made the whole trip a joy. We really missed him the day we left!!
We couldn't recommend a tour company more highly.

Amazing experience!
I booked a 3 day safari with Adventour that was incredible. David kindly picked me up from the airport and drove me to the lodge where I met other visitors and was well taken care of with my meals. The staff were all warm and accommodating. Our safari drives were memorable and it was so amazing to see these incredible animals in their natural habitat. I would highly recommend others book Adventour for their safari experience!
