Everything you can ask for in a safari and more
Very knowledgeable and courteous guide and chef (John and Sule). Knew exactly where to go to find the animals. The prepared hot food every meal was excellent. Best Swahili food that you can ask for and some Western options too. The guide and the chef have to spend very long hours everyday. Walking up early to get food ready, packing up and loading the vehicle, etc. May seem expensive while booking but it’s nice you finish the safari will realize that the value they provide for the price.

Kenya/Zanzibar Safari Adventure
We booked through Go2Africa for our honeymoon for a week in Kenya for a safari and a week in Zanzibar for a beach vacation. In Kenya we spent 2 days in Amboseli and 3 days in Masai Mara. Both locations were incredible and we got to see the Big 5 and a ton of other animals. Go2Africa had a ton of paperwork and information ahead of time that made the planning (and even during the trip) super painless. Everywhere we went, there was someone there to pick us up and take us to the next location. The Go2Africa team obviously knows the area and were great to work with. Highly recommend them to others!

Spectacular Tour Operator
I recently completed a 7-day safari with Kajie Safaris, and the experience was absolutely outstanding from beginning to end. Every detail of the trip was handled with professionalism and care, making it one of the most seamless and memorable adventures I’ve ever had.
Our guide, Osman, was exceptional — knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and clearly passionate about Uganda’s wildlife and culture. His keen eye and deep understanding of the parks and animals made every game drive exciting and educational. We always felt safe, well-informed, and in great hands.
The itinerary was perfectly balanced, allowing us to experience Uganda’s incredible diversity — from savannahs to rainforests, lions to gorillas. The lodges were comfortable, scenic, and well-chosen, and all logistics were smooth and reliable.
Kajie Safaris delivered above and beyond what I expected. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an authentic, professionally-run safari experience. And if you can request Osman as your guide — do it. He made the trip truly unforgettable.

Tanzania safari with GUSA Africa
I want to share our terrific experience with Gusa Africa, a small Tanzanian safari company owned by Elieza Ikamba ("Eli"). We were six friends and Eli planned a custom itinerary for us. The safari exceeded our expectations. Not only did we see the Big Five game animals but many other beautiful species, but our guides, Eli and Freddy, knew all about their habitats, diet and behavior. All the lodges and tented camps we stayed in were very comfortable and had good food. We especially liked Lake Burunge Tented Lodge, Moyo Tented Camp and Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge.
Two aspects of our guides stood out for us: Both guides were as interested in the animals and were we, and they often adjusted our schedule so that we could spend more time with the animals when exciting actions were likely. And second, the guides shared with us their interest in the variety of local people and in their well-being. We visited people from four different tribes, two in their villages, one family in their house on a banana plantation and a nomadic bush tribe, the Hadzade, who are still hunter/gatherers. The last was a unique experience that was one of the highlights of our trip. We also visited an NGO that makes ceramic water filters that produces clean water to villages where people do not have access to safe water.
Gusa Africa's motto is touching people’s lives and part of their program is to support schools and we visited a school in a Maasai area. We would recommend Gusa Africa to anyone interested in a Tanzanian safari that has an additional cultural and humanitarian element.

This once in a lifetime trip was well curated, executed beautifully and we would highly recommend!
I decided to book with Moria Safari because I wanted to support a local Tanzanian tour operator that offered personalized suggestions for a memorable experience. They had great reviews and I can definitely say that they went above and beyond to deliver a once in a lifetime experience for us. Joshua gave us great suggestions on our 6 day itinerary and helped customize it. Our guide and driver Mohammed was the absolute best! He was patient, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be with every day. He drove very safely and yet efficiently. We visited four national parks in six days and spent a lot of time in game drives. We were able to see all the animals that we wanted to see including a leopard! Our entire group of six had a wonderful time and give Moria Safari out highest recommendation!

The best
We booked Sunnycreek safari through James munyiri. Lucky we found his number. He is the best. He made our whole safari trip hassle free and very safe. This is the best travel agent you can find in your budget. They customise your travel based on your budget and provide the best accommodation. Everything was included in the package. Sunny creek provide Sadam as our guide for our safari and he was so great kind and he shown us the big 5. Very much satisfied with their service. If you are planning a masai mara safari just book it with sunny creek safari they are the best in Kenya. No second choice needed

One of the most amazing trips o my life.
One of the most amazing trips of my life.
June 2025
We did a 6 day safari with Unlimited Expeditions - The Soul of Tanzania, and what an experience. My wife arranged the trip with the help of Filipa who was great. Planning the trip around the time we wanted to spend and the quality of accommodation we wanted.
Simon, our guide for the week was amazing, his knowledge of the animals, parks and roads (most of which need some serious skill to navigate) was awesome. We felt completely safe and looked after throughout our adventure.
We stayed in the higher level accommodation, all of which were fantastic. The food was great, but all very similar from lodge to lodge. Modern European with a three course meal with a meat fish or vegetarian main course option in the evening. Breakfast was OK but not on par with the selection you would get in similar priced 5 star hotel in Europe, which is understandable considering the smaller amount of guests and not wanting to create waste. Each Lodge/hotel packs you a picnic lunch for the following day. You wont go hungry. Drinks were included in our lodges which was nice although we didn’t want to drink too much as each morning was an early start to catch as much wildlife as we could.
Thanks to Simons knowledge we saw the big 5 and had some magical and intimate experiences with the animals. From our experience I can’t recommend Unlimited Expeditions - The Soul of Tanzania and Simon enough.

Fantastic tour operator with a personal touch!
Absolutely loved the safari experience we had with Crimson Brooke and would highly recommend them! There are plenty of tour operators out there but if you are looking for one that provides that personal touch and will take that extra step to ensure that you have a great trip, Crimson Brooke is that tour operator. Amos and Betty were fantastic through the entire process. They set up a video call to walk through the itinerary and were very flexible in crafting an itinerary that worked for us. Then they met us at the airport when we landed in Nairobi and gave us wonderful gift bags. We spent a couple of days in Nairobi and they organized a driver and a car for us to use. The tour driver Rueben was incredible, very knowledgeable and made sure we were able to see as many animals as possible. At the end of the trip, Amos and Betty met us for lunch at a beautiful restaurant in Nairobi to ensure we enjoyed the trip. The personal touch through the entire trip really made a difference and made this the most memorable vacation we have ever had. Highly recommend them...you won't be disappointed!

Big Apes Safari Group is a top-tier tour operator that delivers expertly organized, deeply immersive
We had an unforgettable experience with Big Apes Safari Group, and we owe so much of it to our incredible guide, Gerald. From the moment our journey began, Gerald made us feel completely safe, comfortable, and cared for. His calm, professional demeanor paired with his deep knowledge of Uganda’s wildlife, culture, and landscapes elevated our entire trip.
Gerald went above and beyond every single day whether it was adjusting plans to fit our pace, making sure we were always comfortable, or pointing out wildlife we never would have spotted on our own. We visited Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and trekked with gorillas in Bwindi, (to name a few) and at each destination, Gerald’s passion for his country and its natural beauty truly shone through.
He was not just a guide but a storyteller, and a friend. We always felt safe in his hands, even in the most remote areas. His ability to read animal behavior, communicate with rangers, and navigate the parks with ease made our experience smooth and stress free.
If you’re planning a trip to Uganda, ask for Gerald. He played a huge role in making this a once-in-a-lifetime journey that we’ll never forget. Thank you, Big Apes Safari Group and Gerald, we couldn’t have asked for better! :)

If I could give a 6 star rating, I would not hesitate!
Our Safari experience in Kenya was unforgettable, thanks to our exceptional guide and driver, James. He is professional, focused, patient, and incredibly empathetic. His sharp instincts and deep understanding of wildlife often led us to animals faster than others, and he always positioned us in the best viewing spots. His superb driving skills made every journey feel smooth and safe. When another vehicle broke down, James was the first to offer help—his kindness truly touched us. The rest of the Super Eagle team were just as outstanding. Chanson, in particular, worked tirelessly with incredible efficiency and care to make sure our itinerary was perfectly arranged. Their dedication made our entire trip seamless and joyful. Super Eagles is not just a tour company—they are passionate, trustworthy professionals who go above and beyond. We are deeply grateful and would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone visiting Kenya.
