A team who understand what we are looking for
With Simon, our Driver and Guide for the 6 days Safari, we really enjoyed to discover the Masaï Mara National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru national Park and Amboseli National Park.
Nicolas and I really enjoyed these days and we highly appreciated the time that Simon had for us to make us discover the different parks and essentially to be always at the spot we could see the wild life and make excellent photography. We recommend this team.

Great guide and excellent agency
A must do! The safari experience surpassed our highest hopes and not just for the scenary and wildlife but because of our guide Raymond. Such a great personality, excellent safari guide with lots of info on the wildlife, nature, culture, food, history of the region. All in all, we were beyond happy and would recommend him as a safari guide.
Soles tour company, we interacted only for our booking and Happiness was very quick to respond, made all the changes we requested possible, gave advice based on her experience.
Accommodation was superb, we stayed in Sero Tented camp which is a "glamping" tent with excellent staff, amazing sunsets and sunrise views, comfortable "tents" with huge bed, shower with hot water and toilets.
Other accommodation were basic tents but we're equally amazing because of where you are. Nothing beats the african starry night!
Food - we had a cook traveling with us who was great. He would ask us our preferences, we preferences eating local food so he did that most days. Cooked enough food to feed an army! Was delicious, especially considering how remote some of the camps are.
If you're looking for a company to go on a safari, I really recomed safari soles. And especially Raymond as a safari guide, as he made our experience even more amazing

Amazing experience
The 3-Day 2-Night Mikumi and Udzungwa trekking was a great experience I would recommend to anyone to book.
We were picked up in the morning of the first day by our excellent driver/guide William, and drove to Mikumi national park. We had time to go on a short game drive in the evening. We opted to sleep inside the park on the first night so we could get extra time in on the second day for the game drive. No complaints on the rooms in the park, they were more than adequate for what we needed and the food was great.
On the second day we went on the second game drive, where William worked hard to ensure we saw all the animals we wanted to see. In the afternoon, we went to Camp Bastian to rest before the trek the next day. The camping option was ok, but at the time of year we went it was particularly hot at night which can make sleeping difficult. The food here was also excellent and there's a pool.
On the final day, we set off early for the trek in Udzungwa to the Sanje Waterfall. It's not too strenuous, and a beautiful sight. Be sure to pack a swimming costume and towel so you can swim here! There are changing rooms available at the waterfall.
The only thing I think could be improved is the communication with pick up time, as we had been given a different time to the driver which caused some confusion.
I'd like to thank William again for making the trip extra special, he really does go above and beyond to make it one to remember!

4 day safari Serengeti - Ngorongoro - Manyaro
Spectacular safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyaro. Very nice lodges, we spent the night right in the savannah) We saw the Big African Five and many other animals and birds. Special thanks to the guide Elias, an excellent driver, a wonderful storyteller, without him we ourselves simply would not have noticed many of the animals. He also told a lot of interesting things about the animals he met, explained how they differ from each other
