Great Safari company and Guide! Amazing experience!
Went with my wife on a safari trip to Kenya and booked it with Simon of Kenya Safaris Holidays. We visited Samburu, Ol Pejeta, Naivasha and Maasai Mara in February of 2019.
Simon was very helpful during the booking phase. Even though we booked it in short notice, he worked to arrange us accomodations that were good value for the money we had and even helped with some last minute changes my wife requested. Simon was also very knowledgeable regarding parks and conservancies and his help was very important for us in building a great itinerary. Our accomodations were as we expected and we had no problems with it during the trip.
Sammy, our guide, stayed with us for the 8 days our trip lasted. A reliable driver who knows the parks very well. He has an amazing eye for animals and specially to predict where they are moving next, so we were able to enjoy some unbelievable views of elephants, lions, leopards, rhinos and other animals from an extremely close range, while not getting us in any dangerous situations or breaching park regulations. Also, he speaks very good Spanish, which will certainly be a plus if you are a Spanish speaker yourself (or Brazilian like ourselves who know a bit of the language).
Overall we had an amazing time. Simon, Sammy & co provided us incredible value for the money we payed. I definitely reccomend their services and would book with them if went back to Kenya again in the future.

Very good and reliable, very helpful and frendly approach and this has high professional level.
We had with my husband safari trip 3 days in Tsawo-East and in Amboseli, we went by landrover car and we had excellent driver and guide. Every time we had many beautiful experiences, during the trip we saw rich wildlife - many elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, bufallos, flamingos, ostrich, monkies and other animals. We stayed in Voi Safari Lodge, which is very comfortable with a restaurant on the rock, from this place we could've looked out onto the three water holes with elephants and bufallos and seen the charming Panorama of Africa. The second night we stayed at, also nice hotel in Amboseli. We had many nice views and scenes on Kilimanjaro in the park of Amboseli and again we saw many animals. We had wonderful experience with KT Safaris , all was perfectly organized. We were fervoured from the beautiful nature, wildlife , immediate proximity to the animals and also high quality of our lodging and delicious food. My life dream had come true, I would very like to return to Kenya again, primarily for the trip on the Safari. Thank you very much Dick and Kim from the KT§Safaris for the unforgettable wonderfull time! I hope for my return again, I still think about the Safari trip all the time. I hope we will ever have a chance to say again "jumbo Dick, "jumbo Alena" and you will tell me : "Welcome to Kenya!"...Kenya is a very beautiful country, I thank you very much and I'am looking forward to visit it once more.

Safari in Tanzania is something you should experience once in a lifetime.Ma
My safari operated by Kili Slope and Kili Holidays was an amazing experience and adventure. They arranged a wonderful tour with wildlife and culturell encounters, through Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Eyasi Communitiy. Our skillfull guide/driver Thomas offered us an unexpected knowledge about the behaviour of the wildlife population and he was very familiar with the best places to spot animals. Whereas Jackson introduced me together with local guides to the customs of tribes like Maasai, Hadzabe and Dakota.
The accomodations were wonderful and I enjoyed most the stay in a tented camp within the Serengeti, close to natur and animal tracks.

Great trip to beautiful country!
Our group of 5 people spent 21 days in Tanzania. During the visit we were summiting Meru and Kilimanjaro, went to safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and at last we spent 4 days in Zanzibar. Everything went as we have been hoping before our trip with some extra pleasant surprises – for example two nights in Kati Kati tented camp with a real campfire was something no one could expect forehand. Many thanks to Ene, Emmanuel and Freddy -they were brilliant in listening our wishes and problems and also finding solutions to them.

The perfect first ever safari
As first time visitors to beautiful Kenya, it felt great to rely on James expertise and experience. He and his colleagues have such passion and love for the nature and the animals and shares their knowledge in a fantastic way. They truly create a positive experience that stays with you long after you have said goodbye.

Kakasii was a wonderfully knowledable and thoughtful guide for our very first Safari!
I would certainly recommend using Tanzania Choice Safaris to anyone who desires a kind, wonderfully knowledgeable, safe, and experienced guide - with a little dash of pizazz throw in for a beautifully spread, unexpected, picnic lunch in the middle of the day! My 13-year-old old son and I thoroughly enjoyed our first safari and he had a LOT of questions!! Kakasii patiently answered questions and let us stop to take photos of our first wild this or wild that - that he had seen a million times before (Tip for first time safarians - zebras and water buffalo are like deer and antelope in the States- unless those are your favorites I would suggest letting him get you to the lions and rhinos and elephants FIRST. The zebra and water buffalo will still be staring straight at you on the way BACK too! :) )
Kakasii's experience and knowledge of animal behavior allowed us to be in the perfect place to watch a lioness track down her lunch! Fortunately, for the smart zebra mom, the Pride did not catch her - but we proudly caught it all on video because Kakasii knew just where to position our jeep in time for the show. The entire day from dawn to dusk was spectacular. Thank you Kakasii for an unforgettable day. I am happy to say I am returning THIS June (with my younger son and a team of 4 others) and will look forward to where you will take us this year! ----as long as you promise to find a GIRAFFE this time! :)

Trip of a lifetime.
Our guide Sam Mopalo was excellent not only with his vast knowledge of all the animals, birds and insects but knowing where and when to find the best viewing of animals. I really cannot think of anything that wasn’t completely up to par for 10 days in the bush. Food, accommodations, and activities were well planned. Sam is professional as well as lots of fun. I highly recommend him

Once in a lifetime experience
I wanted to write a review for Cape Dog Safaris because we had a phenomenal Safari trip. It was beyond our expectations. The guide and accommodations chosen for us were spot on. They attended to all of our needs, including my Gluten Free food allergy and we were able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation. We never thought we would ever see the wildlife that we saw on the Serengeti, and our guide was so knowledgeable on the wildlife and animal behavior, which made our trip much more enjoyable and educational.
We will be talking about our Safari on the Serengeti with Cape Dog Safaris for years to come.

Absolutely brilliant, professional and most hospitable hosts.
Everything was absolutely perfect, efficient and polite. The guide was exemplary and even more your personal help Ben being on the ball to help is when we were in a jam when our flight to Nairobi was cancelled.

Our dream became true!
Before departure we made a travel schedule with Emma. We discussed all our needs and dreams. We had good support, could discuss everything and made choices together. The price is fair. The communication was friendly.
In Tanzania we had Edward as driver/guide and Godson as chef. No words to describe this time. During safari we had so much excitement (together). Have seen the big five, and several times cheeta's.
We like photography and have a lot of memorable pictures! Our dream came true.
We can recommend Emma, Edward and Godson; they make Shemeji great! GREAT!
