Good value for money. Fantastic experience
We had enquired about a day trip from Diani beach to tsavo east via email. the correspondence and organisation through email was fuss free, easy and polite along with very good pricing.
We booked this trip in the last week of our holiday after spending 2 weeks on the beach in Diani. This was by far our best experience. It was a big trip (14hours) in the car but was worth every minute. Dominic our driver was courteous,helpful and very professional. We were driven to a souvenir shop en route, had buffet lunch at a wonderful lodge (wished we stayed there for the night) and not once did we feel taken advantage of or unsafe.
I would definitely like to recommend this company to anyone who is looking to go on safari.

Absolutely amazing holiday with the best guide in Kenya! Couldn’t ask for more.
Communication prior was great. We had a severe food allergy in our group and at every lodge it was addressed appropriately and kindly. Our tour guide Musa was the absolute best. 16 years of experience and very clearly a well-known leader among the other guides. He struck the perfect balance between giving us the best possible experience and respecting the animals and the earth. The lodges were all incredible and were an unbelievable value. The food at each lodge was also amazing. Some of the beds weren’t great but that’s expected when traveling. We thought an 8 day safari might be a little too much but by the end we were very sad we couldn’t do more. Again, can’t say enough good things about Musa, I’m not sure I can ever do a safari without him! He is an absolute gem and gave us the most unforgettable experience.
Only recommendation for improvement is to not do the Maasai village tour. It was very uncomfortable and we felt preyed upon. We were separated and they basically demanded quite a bit of money. Would much rather support through responsible travel and buying things as we go.
Will absolutely use Denhum Holidays in the future and highly recommend to family and friends.

Great experience and warm memories
The reason for contacting the Mwangaza Safari was its good cost-efficient offer stated on the site. I began preparing for my six-day journey about two weeks before it began and the thorough and quick answers to many questions that I asked before making the final decision finally convinced me of the wisdom of the choice. I preceded the safari with a day trip to Zanzibar, the organization of which was also undertaken by the company. Both parts of the trip left me with the best impressions: everything went according to a pre-agreed schedule, the guides both on Zanzibar and on safari provided a large amount of interesting information, quickly and clearly resolved all current issues. I thank Mwajabu, Michael, Abdul and other persons assisted me with this memorable trip and I strongly recommend Mwangaza Safari for those who wish to go on saturated and well-organized trip to Tanzania.

10-day Safari in Kenya and Tanzania
We (my husband and I) did a 10-day safari through Kenya and Tanzania with Like a Local Safaris. Maurice provided us with information before our trip and regularly checked whether we had questions or needed more information. When we arrived in Kenya he picked us up from the airport because it was too early for the driver. He told us about our itinerary again to make sure that we would be content with our safari. This was a very clear story. He recommended us a private safari for the first seven days and that was definitely the best decision we could have made! The next day our driver Boniface picked us up for a tour in Nairobi, which Maurice arranged for us to do before the start of our safari. Boniface was a great guide, very knowledgeable about Kenya and especially the animals in Kenya. We had a wonderful safari. Boniface listened very well to our wishes and he taught us so much about all types of animals (especially also about birds). We communicated with Maurice throughout our safari to update him on how we experienced our safari. The accommodation was as we expected: comfortable and clean. Some accommodations were a bit more luxurious than others, as near some parks only camping is affordable. We felt that Maurice made sure to prepare us for the more basic campsites, and there was a balanced alternation between more luxurious and basic accommodations. Food was generally good, although you should not expect incredible culinary experiences (you will mainly have buffets with rice, potatoes, meat, ugali, etc.) The game drives were absolutely amazing!! Boniface made sure we went to the parks on time to see many animals. In 10 days, we saw the big five, over 70 lions, and just generally many animals living in their natural habitats. A truly unforgettable experience, and with Like A Local Safaris you truly get great value for money.

Our excursion to the waterfalls and coffe plantations with Issa was amazing!
Thanks to our guide Issa, who is very professional, patient and friendly we had a very good & special time together in the lovely area of Moshi, with the beautiful waterfalls and interesting tour about organic coffee. We learnt a lot about Tanzanian culture, shared experiencies and laught & sing together while relaxing ourselves.
Very recommended tour for everybody.

Devine African Safaris was the best decision I made
Choosing Devine African Safaris was the best decision I made. Boaz, my guide, picked me up from the Kigali international airport and transferred me to my Lemigo hotel. The actual safari started the following day with our drive towards Bwindi forest- home to some of the last remaining mountain gorillas. Boaz was knowledgeable about the culture, flora and fauna in East Africa. He was so easy to talk to that we became friends. He also could not stop talking about his country, Uganda. He told me about the people there, and the best sites to visit while I was there.
We also visited Queen Elizabeth and Kibale National Parks which are lovely attractions with a wide variety of land & water animals as well as birds.
During our trip we stayed at lovely hotels booked by Devine African Safaris. The hotels were comfortable and provided breakfast. We were always on time, because of Boaz’s excellent professionalism. I couldn’t be happier with the company’s choice of hiring Boaz.
I highly recommend Devine African Safaris for any trip that you want to make.

Superb Safari to Samburu & Masai Mara
Our friend in Finland recommended this company to us based in Kenya since they had always had a pleasant experience with Shoor Safaris in Nairobi. I am happy to have booked our 5 day Safari with them as all was well planned and most of all their pricing was fair and reasonable, not trying to overcharge us as tourists from overseas [ as some other operators had tried to do so when we had contacted them during the planning stage].
Excellent and friendly Driver-guide also that we were give for our Safari - Peter.

We had an amazing Time.. really help me with everything.
Everything was super Awesome.
Only problem we faced was the Driver did not switch on AC when the dust road starts on the way to MARA from Nairobi, and keep on driving with open windows which was really hard. But on the way back driver was kind enough to switch on AC. Actually their fault as i saw so many others do the same.. but some I saw they switch on the AC.
