Excellent experience with a superb driver/guide.
We booked a 5 day safari with Bison Safaris and I truly recommend them. The driver Joshua was very knowledgeable, helpful, responsive and had always everything well organised and under control. As a guide he was an excellent information source both about Kenya and its wildlife.
The safari itself included 2.5 days at Masai Mara, one day at Nakuru and one day at Hells Gate.
If I would do it again, I would probably skip Nakuru (however, the point of Nakuru was the rhinos). Hells Gate gorges are a must through.
Again, I do recommend Bison Safaris.

They were homely and professional
I think what I really value from any tour operator is professionalism and these guys just provided that, with a touch of friendliness.
I would recommend them.

Kenya safari: An amazing holiday
I have just returned from a 10 night safari in Kenya and what a time I had! The holiday was meticulously organised by Lilian , Lians Travel; I knew I was in good hands from the first moment I corresponded with her. After a couple of emails I rang Lilian so she could get a really good idea of what I really wanted (within reason!) on my holiday in Africa, and also what I wasn't so keen on (single supplements, six Land Cruisers around one lion...). As I made my enquiry quite late in the year I was probably not in a good position to get a perfect fit, however the resulting 9 nights in the Kenya ,Amboseli,Samburu,Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara more than met my expectations.
Everything went like clockwork with transfers and for the majority of my trip I felt like the queen, having a safari to our group to the kenya Parks , I never had to worry about any aspect of our trip.
The Kenya Safari itself was incredible, and the Camp are special places. I enjoyed the most beautiful views, fantastic food, great hosting and exceptional guiding. I had so many memorable wildlife experiences. Here are my top 6: Lion Pride Seeing wild dogs for the very first time; seeing a leopard on a walking safari; elephants making a huge hullabaloo eating their breakfast right next to my tent; seeing a leopard slink right up to the car and give it a good sniff on a night drive; a couple of elephants sauntering by the dinner table as we guests were sitting by the fire enjoying aperitifs... magic!
I recommend Liant Travel unreservedly and I plan to book more safaris from them in the future.

Made the trip of a lifetime so much more
Megan at Discover Africa helped us turn a simple safari into the trip of a lifetime. She exceeded expectations at every turn. We had a package deal for a basic safari but knew that we wanted to make more of the trip than just that. Megan helped us to find our perfect balance of luxury and budget and to spend the right amount of time in the right places. Even though we live on the other side of the world, she was always accessible in our planning to answer questions and provide options and constructive advice. And that accessibility continued throughout our travels which gave us great comfort knowing we could get questions and concerns answered right away.
Our safari at Sabi Sands Little Bush Camp was more than we ever imagined with top-notch luxury, great food, and incredible safari drives. We had sightings of just about every animal in the region including cheetahs and leopards on the same day.

Amazing Experience in Tanzania National Parks with Lesaga Adventure Safari
My niece and I, just returned from an amazing safari in Tanzania. We selected our safari company Lesaga Adventure Safaris through Safaribookings.com. Sylvie, the Director of Lesaga, communicated with us promptly with a customized proposal and answered all our questions. The price was very reasonable and competitive. We had a private tour with a cook and a guide. The safari was for 4 nights, 5 days and included Tarangire NP, 2 nights Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. We opted for budget camping, because there is nothing like sleeping in a tent in the Serengeti and hearing the animals surrounding you. This was my second time on Safari in Tanzania and I wanted my niece to experience this. Our driver Simba was exceptional. In the Serengeti we saw the Big 5 before lunch. Simba was a safe driver and always secured us an excellent view of whatever animals we were watching without obstructing other vehicles. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, country and its customs. Our cook whipped up very tasty meals in the limited kitchens he had available at the campsites and accommodated our wishes. Overall, we can highly recommend Lesaga Adventure Safaris. We had an amazing experience and have hundreds of pictures to prove it.

Affordable custom safari trip
We went on a wonderful 16 day safari with eTrip in Kenya.
My husband and I picked eTrip because we could choose exactly what we wanted to do for an affordable price. We changed our minds several times before embarking on the trip as to which parks we wanted to visit and for how long, but Aurelie was extremely patient and took time to answer any questions that we had. We also appreciated the many (with each change!) break down trip cost attachments that she sent.
For each park we wanted to visit a preferred lodge to suit our budget was suggested but we certainly did not need to stay in that lodge if we didn't want to. Most of the time we did stay in their suggested lodges and we were more than happy with their choices.
As our trip was a long one, we were a little worried about spending so much time with one tour guide/driver, especially as we had never done a non-independent trip like this before. We needn't have worried - our driver David was knowledgable, patient and, most importantly, a lot of fun! Not only did we learn a lot about the animals we were seeing but we also learnt a lot about Kenya and its people.
The land cruiser we traveled in was very comfortable and we always felt safe. Overall we had a wonderful experience and can whole-heartedly recommend eTrip.

Fantastic Experience
Our Christmas safari was booked through Yellow Zebra. Richard from Maasai Wanderings was our guide who picked us up at Kili Villas the day after we arrived in Africa. Richard was polite, knowledgeable, entertaining, punctual and an excellent driver. We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with him.

Can't wait to go AGAIN!
We loved Uganda ... we were picked up from our hotel in Kigali and seamlessly transferred into Uganda. Obviously the Gorilla trekking was by far the most amazing thing. But we were lucky enough to see the Green-Breasted Pitta, a Leopard, etc etc. The people in Uganda are just terrific and Xerox might be the best breakfast food/snack ever. The only downside was the A/C (and therefore the comfort) of the vehicle - specially because the roads in Uganda are probably the worst among the 65+ countries I have been to.
My advice is to get online - and book your adventure to Uganda NOW.

We did the best 5-days safari-trip with jocky tour.
This year I came to Africa for the first time and We did the best 5-days safari-trip with Jocky tour. The safari was great, we have seen so many animals i mean all 5 big and others. Our guide Isaac was the best, he was fun and very experienced and did everything to make some good memories for us! The Camp where we stayed was very cool and especially for the night to feel safe! Everything was like 5 star hotel. Totally recommended.
