They are Very reliable and profesional.
Some of the other agency cancelled our trip in Uganda and we already had the flights booked and fully paid, as well as another trip in Tanzania. So, at final we contact to Ngoni Safaris Uganda by email and asked them for a trip in between the days we had to be in Uganda.
As a kind of them, they answered us very soon, and answered every question very smoothly and quickly. And at last we booked a 13 day tour with them. At the time of tour, giving to us a wonderful itinerary with wonderful lodges. If any query we had, they use to solved it quickly.
When we arrived to Uganda, our driver-guide Nelson was waiting for us, he was charming, skilled and very polite during the whole trip and everything was perfect, thanks to them we met the amazing tour in that country, Uganda.
I just want to say that, Ngoni Safaris had saved our pre-planned trip to Uganda, that others almost ruined.

Great Tour!
We travelled to Murchison Falls National Park and had a great time with them. Despite the challenges of organizing a tour in this post-lockdown Mega Wild gave us a wonderful treat.
Very competent and friendly people that treated us as loved guests!
They really know the park and helped us to spot all the animals in it and the best views!
Highly recommend!!

A solid safari experience with a personalized touch
I traveled to Kenya in June 2019 specifically to visit the Maasai Mara and after much research and outreach to 5 or 6 tour companies, I decided to put my trust and investment with Maurice at Africa Safari Classics. I made this decision based on the many positive reviews for Africa Safari Classics, as well as the personalized response and engagement I received from the company. I also found the price and value to be more competitive than another tour operator I was considering.
From the time of my outreach, Maurice was very attentive and we spoke over the phone via WhatsApp a few times and exchanged several messages leading up to my departure. What I really enjoyed about my booking experience was the ability to customize every detail of my trip - from the local sightseeing in Nairobi, to the types of camps I wished to stay in out in the Maasai Mara.
While I enjoyed visiting the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, Giraffe Center and Kazuri Beads (all great places to include in your Nairobi tour), of course the big highlight was my time out in the Mara. Maurice set me up with an operator called Basecamp Explorer and I opted to stay at two of their camps - (1) Basecamp Masai Mara (Fun Fact: Barack Obama and his family stayed here in 2006) and (2) Wilderness Camp. Both camps were incredible and the staff were very attentive, polite and welcoming. The Wilderness Camp was also more of a nostalgic tribute to the safaris of the early explorers as guests sleep in an individual and spacious tent on the plains of the Masai Mara. During the night, you can actually hear the hoofing of zebras, wildebeest and perhaps other animals passing by your tent. It was exhilarating and yet a bit scary, but the local Masai who run the camp are close by to step in if needed.
Wildlife Highlights: My best sightings included lions (including a majestic male lion with a large mane), elephants, hippos, hyenas, cheetahs, zebras and of course the Great Migration itself.
I also recommend adding on a visit to the local Masai village. It's a fun 1-2 hours and the community comes together to welcome and celebrate your visit with dancing. TIP: Be prepared to purchase some souvenirs during your visit. I wish I knew this in advance. Since I was the only person from the Wilderness Camp to participate in the village tour, I felt even more obligated to buy something as I was the only person visiting the village that day. Luckily the souvenirs aren't super expensive. I bought a bracelet for $10 USD. The Basecamp Masai Mara also has a nice gift shop and I purchased an authentic Kenyan belt. It's absolutely beautiful and I was able to negotiate the price a bit.
Huge shout out to Maurice for all of his help! Not only did he personally meet me in Nairobi (and provided a complimentary gift I could use out on my safari), he also met up with me again once I got back from the Mara to gather my feedback on what went well and what could be improved.
I told Maurice my only regret was that I did not stay longer in Kenya to explore more of the parks and wildlife. I'd love to hire Africa Safari Classics again and hope I can return in the near future. Great job all around and definitely recommend to other travelers considering a visit to Kenya and the Masai Mara.

Amazing experience, very safe
We just ended our 5-days Safari as one of the first guests after Covid-19 Lockdown (25-29 July 2020). Life is like normal in Tanzania/Arusha and they are really happy to welcome tourists again. For care of health they have buckets with clear water, soap and sanitizers to clean your hands everywhere. On our Safari every Hotel or Lodge welcomed us with face masked and they checked our temperatur. They are making efforts for everyone to stay safe. But if you dont mind, you dont have to wear face masks.
We really enjoyed our safari with our guide Florid. He really cared about everyone on our Tour to be happy and safe. Also I think 5-days is not to long for a safari. We enjoyed it until the last day! We slept in a Lodge and two Tended Lodges. They were really beautiful and on europian standards.
Asante Sana Suricata!!

A wonderful experience I will always cherish!
The trip was absolutely fabulous. From the great safaris with Abdul and Ibrahim (sleeping in tents in the Serengeti-tip: don't pitch your tent right at the Edge of camp. You might not have to worry about snoring Germans, but laughing hyenas are equally noisy ..)
Then we topped it all off by Emanuel spontaneously giving us a lift to Moshi to drop off prosthetic supplies at TATCOT.
DEFINITELY a five star experience!!

Everything is Perfect, Thank you Trip Quest
Everything was amazing in the 4-day and 5-day period starting from Arusha airport to the Klimanjero Airport. I believe we are met in the best way and receive the best service. Our guide was an incredibly relevant, patient and properly dressed professional guide. He helped a lot with everything. The reservation process is also tailored to your needs and a program is tailored for you. In addition, the reservation processes are progressing very quickly. Thank you very much Martin! Our vehicle was very comfortable and new. The pockets in front of each seat, cup holders with extra zippered eyes and most importantly, the possibility of charging in every seat was very functional in my opinion. Problematic Benjamin greeted us at the start of the tour and after informing about the tour, he gave us his phone number and said that we could call whatever. It makes you feel safe. At the end of the tour, the question of coming to the hotel where we stay and asking for a return is a clear indication of the importance it shows to the business. I love the people who do my job properly. The all hotels, meals, rezervation, car and Guide all of them perfect thank you again Trip Quest :) I will recommended everybody. I would recommend it to everyone.
