An amazing holiday- well organized /good hotels or bushcamps / great safari with our top guide Salim
After searching on the internet Tanzania Specialist popped up as first. They have a very good and clear website. After contacting the Tanzania Specials, I received a prompt reply and the communication was very quick. After we agreed on the route, the day arrived that we landed at Arusha airport, Salim was waiting for us. Salim is a great guide. He showed us the beauty of Tanzania with all its beautiful animals with a lot of information about the country/history/area and know the behaviour of the animals very well and not to mention the way in all the parcs.
Everything was arranged perfectly. The hotels and bushcamps , the food and the lunchboxes was of good quality. Although this safari cost a lot of money, it is worth it. It was a great experience. Thank you Tanzania Specials and Salim !!

Well planed and well executed.
Kwezi Safari Dec 2023/Jan 2024. Highly recommended.
When we decided to go on safari we contacted several safari companies and supplied information about what we wanted. Other companies, including “custom safari operators “ sent us back what appeared to be canned trips.
Only Mr. Kimiri, from Kwezi came back with some comments and suggestions to make the trip flow better. Even after we had committed he came back with suggestions that helped us avoid problems at lodges and put us in places better for our game drives. We had several email discussions to refine the trip. My family wanted to make some donations and he even took personal time to pick up and deliver items for a local orphanage.
As for the safari we couldn’t have asked for more. Though no safari company can guarantee what you get to see. We saw everything we wanted to see and more. We were lucky to see a lion hunt of a Cape buffalo and even a recent kill of a gazelle by a cheetah with her two cubs. They sat no more than 15 feet from our Land Cruiser eating and resting. We even saw some very rare animals such as a Serval Cubs and a genet. When we stopped for lunch one day the guide immediately spotted a boa in a tree near our vehicle. We visited both Kenya and Tanzania, so it required two different guides Jimmy and John, plus at our request Mr. Kimiri.
(Hint- the guides they arranged for us were experienced and seemed to know everyone) if something was happening they knew it quickly and maneuvered us to great viewing locations & when we found an animal they notified others. We talked with other people on safari when at our lodging and they didn’t see nearly as much as we did.
We saw many birds and only once did the guide have to check his book to verify a species. Often our guide would stop in place we saw nothing and point out animals. Spotting small animals is a gift.
Last but not least, our guides didn’t just answer our questions, they offered us information about the animals we saw, about habitat, about birds, about trees, about the Masai people and their customs.
I don’t believe we could have had a better experience even if we had paid more. Thank you Kwezi Safari.

Incredible experience to see the Gorillas with Trots & Safari Uganda!
Had a great experience with Trots & Safari Uganda! Organised my trip independently by contacting the company via WhatsApp and managed to book my trip after clarifying a few options with them. I got picked up in Kigali the day before by Jimmy and arrived in Uganda within a few hours. Early the next day we drove to the Bwindi National Park and I got to do the Gorilla trek which was amazing! Big thanks to Jimmy for his outstanding guidance, knowledge sharing and great driving skills as well! Highly recommend Trots & Safari Uganda!

Asante Suricata Safaris!
The Suricata Safaris team is very professional, organized and friendly. The safari they provided for us for 5 days was not just an adventure on the beaten track, but rather a cultural immersion in the country, as our guide Lewis shared with us the history and culture of his country. His passion and his extensive and admirable knowledge about animals and nature allowed us to live an even more extraordinary and intense experience, understanding what we observed with new eyes.
All the meals prepared by our chef Salim were delicious, varied and balanced. Always attentive to our needs.

one of the best holidays I ever had
My sister and I traveled to Kenya to stay at the ocean coast and to see a wild life. Initially, we flew to Mombasa and took a drive to Diani beach, which is considered to be the best in Africa. After spending a fantastic time of 3 days in Diani , we head back to Nairobi from Ukunda airstrip. We booked Unscripted Safari for 4 days of private safari tour with mid range accomodation.
The safari started from visiting Lake Nakuru, where at the entrance we saw 3 white rihnos. Since our drive took around 6 hours, we stayed in Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge, and continiued our drive around the lake next day. Within 3 hours we observed zebras, buffalos, rihnos, large number of flamingo, pelicans, giraffes, antilopes. The weather was cool +20 celsium degrees, and it was perfect for a comfort travel.
The same day we traveled to Maasai Mara, where while driving to the Mara Intrepids Tented Camp, saw an african leppard in one place, elephants family, two male cheetah and three lions. Next morning we were very luck to observe four female lions hunting, then female cheetah with a baby.
Travel to Kenya was one of the best in my international experience. Lovely people with a good sense of humour, colourfull clothes, fantastic wild life, really beautiful and green sceeneres of Indan ocean coast and savannah, excellent quality hotels and food. Wish to return!

Perfect
First of all, the guys from the agency are veey nice and very responsive. We had a small issue for coming back from Kruger due to X-Mas and they managed to find a solution in due time.
As for the accomodation, it was just perfect. The managers there were very welcoming and offered all their support for a great safari experience.
Kruger needs no more description since I think that it is one of the greatest national parks in SA. I was lucky to see all the big 5 and much more.

Great place with excellent national parks
I enjoyed Uganda very much. First I made a five day safari with Green Zones and I had the best guide ever. We did not only see the wild animals, we had a lot of time to explore them. We saw lions hunting a warthog, gorillas with a two month old baby, a lot of elefants, giraffes,...
After the trip I visited a school were my son works as volunteer and I experienced how hard life can be specially for kids. Parents often don’t have the money to pay the school fees and the boys and girls spend their whole day carrying water from the boreholes to the villages.
Travelling in Uganda was safe, even for a women alone and adventurous with many people sitting in a taxi or on a boda boda.
I would like to visit Uganda again to learn more about the country.
