Simply Awesome!
Thinkk Travels booked me and my family for a trip to the Mara and it was such a lovely experience!!
Right from the transport where we had a very engaging driver, to the hotel accommodation, the round trip around the park everything was awesome.
The planning phase was also excellently handled by Muthoni Gathitu with information being shared in a timely manner.
I am already looking forward to booking my next safari with Thinkk Travels and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to plan for a vacation!!

Super helpful, great budget option
We had a great Safari with Karibu Safaris in Kenya. We booked 3 days in Amboseli. It’s a great option for a budget safari, it was perfect for us. The van was comfortable. Our guide, Castro, was amazing. He was great at spotting animals (honestly I could not believe how good his eyesight is). We asked for a couple specific animals like hyenas and he made sure we saw loads of them! First day, a lovely 3 hour drive in the evening. Second day, a full day game drive with a stop at observation hill for lunch. On the third day we went on a nature walk with Saitoti, a local Masai who works at the camp we stayed at. I can’t recommend it enough. It was so interesting. We stayed at Manjaro Tented Camp which definitely was a highlight of our trip. Great staff and food and super comfortable tents. Be prepared to hear animals at night which really adds to the adventure! I definitely recommend this company. Booking was easy and Peter was super helpful. The park fees were included, accommodation, 3 meals a day and transfer to and from the park.

Pascoe was very knowledgeable and lovely, really improved our trip!
Loved our tour to selous national park. The driving and boat safaris far exceeded my expectations. The walking safari wasn’t good and I wouldn’t have minded skipping that entirely, though it was quite funny. The accommodation (though we stayed at a slightly different accommodation than usually provided with this tour, at Selous Ngalawa camp) also wasn’t great, and the food wasn’t great there either.
BUT Pascoe our guide and our driver (whose name I forget!) were great, determined to get us to find lions and made for a really enjoyable tour. They were able to sort issues for us on the fly and I would definitely go with these guys again. I think they provide good value for money.

Beyond expectation!
Silas at Apodiformes Adventures helped to make our first safari trip to Africa an incredible one! Our 20 day safari included both Kenya and Uganda as well as a couple of day trips. Before our trip even began, Silas, the owner of the company was very responsive to our many questions. Silas even went out of his way to help us with some logistical things to ensure our trip ran smoothly. We definitely are very grateful and appreciative of his extra efforts.
I highly recommend Silas and Apodiformes Adventures for any Safari trip in Kenya!
Our guides, Samuel, Jamal and Paul were very professional and respectful. Silas fosters a strong work ethic and it clearly filters to his tour guides as well. Thank you to Apodiformes for making our first trip to Africa so memorable!

An amazing experience
We went for a four days camping safari and it was an amazing experience. We had wonderful guides, Frederick and Rocky but also an amazing chef. They were willing to share knowledge but also personnal experience. The mood was great and the cooking very delicious. Enough variety for vegetarian as well. We loved it so much that we took a fifth day with Suricata to go to Moshi for waterfall, coffee and hot springs tour ! Feel at ease to book with them with your eyes closed and just follow the rythm !

Very professional and efficient with a first class personal support and excellent local knowledge
We went to SA on honeymoon 20 years ago and always promised ourselves we would take our kids back on a really special family holiday.
Susan from Discover Africa helped us plan our perfect trip and was very organised in sorting out the details. The trip was then sent to us with a really nice e-brochure detailing what was to happen, which really got the family's enthusiasm going.
The trip itself went off without a hitch. We stayed in fantastic places, all the transfers and day trips happened on schedule and we had a holiday to remember.
What was really helpful was that Susan was on hand to help us through the holiday - she did not disappear once she had taken our money, and her local knowledge was absolutely an advantage over a UK based travel agent.
I would thoroughly recommend Susan's services and will use them again when we go back.

Great service provider for Safaris
I did the Masai Mara safari for 2 nights 3 days with my husband and my 2 year old.
Morris from Balu Travels was coordinating with me. He was very prompt in responding to my questions.
Everything from pick up to drop off was well coordinated. The quotation had everything listed out in detail which was very helpful.
Would recommend them to anyone specially those travelling with toddlers.

Great experience and very surprised
We went to the safari for 4 days tour and it was a huge experience - we had the chance to see all the animals - very lucky about it !
We were with Freddie and rocky as guide and Prius was our chef ! Amazing and tasty food!
They have very good eyes and they have answered to all our questions !
The day after the safari we went to Materuni waterfalls and hot spring with Twalbu.
We booked the trip in last minute and we enjoyed it all day long.
- he picked us up in the hotel and we started our day. We went to the waterfalls hiking in the rain but it was so beautiful to see !
After we tasted the coffee with the history of the origin.
We had a lunch nearby and it was so delicious ! We enjoyed it thanks to the Mama !
We finished the day in the hot spring - it was good to swim in the nature ! I advise you to book it !
