Professional, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, caring, excellent safe driver and guide,
Extremely reliable and client oriented safari. We traveled as a family and had an outstanding experience. Everything was as expected or beyond expectations. Our driver and guide, Elias, was professional, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, caring, and not intrusive. Spending 5 days with him was a genuine pleasure. Highly recommended organization.

Exceptional service around the clock - goes beyond the trip itself
I wanted to take the time to write a review about the Luxury Safari Company, in particular working with Rose. She planned the most spectacular honeymoon for my husband and I in September. We experienced the most fabulous, luxurious accommodations at each stop along the way - Cape Town, wine country and South African Safari in Madikwe Reserve. She knows exactly what she is talking about when it comes to where to stay, when to go, the amount of wildlife you will see, etc. My husband and I talk about the trip literally every day. Rose won our trust over so much that we have since reached out to talk about returning to Africa again as soon as possible... yes, even in the same year. The issue with a trip to Africa though is it takes A LOT of research, planning and is quite the investment. Naturally, we have to go back and forth with Rose quite a bit to figure out if another Africa trip is in our future... and I ask a million questions along the way. Sadly, timing hasn't worked out for us to return again yet, but just the fact that Rose is so patient and willing to talk us through so much research even when a trip isn't booked, just shows her dedication to her clients. My only complaint is that Rose can't plan every trip in our life for us :) If you are debating on whether or not to go to Africa ... GO. If you are debating on whether or not to use Luxury Safari Company - trust me - they are the best - and this is coming from a very picky, skeptical New Yorker.

First class company for our safari adventure
After years of planning we have just returned from our first safari trip and we could not be happier. Karibu Safaris in Kenya took care of everything- despite the time difference Victor never took more than a couple of hours to reply to our many questions as we prepared ourselves to this journey. From the moment we landed to the moment we arrived safe and sound back at the airport our trip was simply outstanding. Not a single issue faced prior to, during or after our adventures in Nairobi and the Masai Mara. The highlight of our trip was definitely David, our guide and driver he is one of the best professionals I’ve ever met- a reliable, hard-working and committed individual . In addition to his impressive driving and animal tracking skills, level of excellence. Thanks to his well-trained eye and skills we managed to not only see the Big 5 in great style but also learn much more than what we could from books and websites. Our memories of a lifetime are simply unbelievable – from witnessing dozens of lions, elephants and cheetahs enjoying family life right next to us to the hard-to-find leopards and rhinos looking us right in the eye. We stayed at Mara Serena for three nights and I am already looking forward to returning. I highly recommend booking different kinds of activities through Karibu Safaris in Kenya.

Trustworthy, well trained, very cooperative and kind people
Their service was wonderful! The major reason that I chose this company was that their response was unbelievably quick and tried every possible way to arrange all tours that we wanted in limited time! They were very cooperative, trustworthy and wcould enjoy our first time experience in Africa! We really appreciate it! We contacted many other companies but trust me, this company is the best!!! All the tours were also incredible! They were on time to come pick us up, we were never forced to wait for another guests, we were the only ones and had a lot of privacy so we could use time to ourselves as much as possible. When it comes to emergency, they were willing to help us. They called manager to double confirm that everything was okay. We could see how well each agent were trained! We were impressed! We were so amazed by their service as well as tour itself. We would def. recommend this company to especially people who have never been to Africa for safari tour. They will do everything for you and make sure you enjoy every moment from before to after the tour! Perfect! We thank you so much for making our experience in Tanzania memorable! Thank you Emma, Froukje, Adam, Frank and other agents who helped us to enjoy tours!

Excellent service!
We have been in touch with several companies for our planned trip in Uganda. Michael and his Mushra travel agency clearly stood out for several reasons - reasonable price, prompt replies, quick adjustments in itinerary, clear and professional communication, deposit required as opposed to full amount being paid. I wished to choose agency disadvantaged of not being listed in any well known guidebooks as I believe there are many other companies which deserve credit and recognition. I am glad I was right.
Michael and our guide Abel has done their best to make our trip enjoyable and unforgettable. Abel is a great driver, pleasant companion, funny and positive buddy, reliable and professional at the same time. Do not ask for anyone else when planning safari in Uganda than for Mushra and Abel as your guide.
Do not combine your trip with other countries as Uganda has so much to offer you can easily spend 3 weeks there and still will not have enough.
We will be back and if possible it will be with these guys!

A wonderful safari that gives you memories for life.
I have an incredibly nice and rewarding 5 day safari with Quest Horizon Safaris. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He had a great photo interest and found the perfect angles and places to see the different animals of the savannah. In the end we managed to see Big 5 and we were incredibly finding memories to take home. We did a private trip and slept in tents through the trip.
