Safari is recommended and complete in Spanish.
My experience with the company was excellent, both in the pre-trip communication and during the safari. They quickly addressed any questions or concerns in Spanish, which was exactly what I was looking for. The safari itself was a wonderful experience. The accommodations and meals weren't luxurious, but they were very good, as was the excellent service from the staff and our guide. The only "negative" aspect was the amount of time we spent at the Ngorongoro Crater, as it felt too short. If we had known this, either by asking ourselves or by the company or the guide, we would have planned the route differently, since we only had about two hours of actual time in the park. We also felt the guide could have been a bit more patient when we asked to stop, as he didn't always respond to our requests and at times seemed eager to finish everything as quickly as possible. But despite this, I give it an 8 out of 10, as overall it was a wonderful experience and I'm very happy with the services we received.

young but very hard-working operator
The trip was very intense, perhaps an extra day was needed. There are in fact very long distances. Excellent facilities and a competent guide, although sometimes a little distracted.

6月Safari
Our 7-day, 6-night Tanzania safari was absolutely made by our guide, Festo!
He was consistently reliable throughout the entire trip, making sure we stuck to our schedule and got the most out of every game drive. We were thrilled to see all of the Big Five, and the highlight for us was when he helped us find a group of lions right at sunset—we got the most beautiful photos we’ve ever taken.
Festo is a true expert on the Serengeti, navigating every terrain with ease and never getting lost, even in the most remote areas. His driving is steady and skilled, and our car ran perfectly the whole time, unlike many others we saw on the road. He’s also such a kind person; he stopped multiple times to help other drivers with their broken-down cars.
If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, Festo is the perfect choice—you’ll be in great hands!

They provide professional, worry-free safari journeys in Tanzania
I recently completed a 7-day, 6-night safari in Tanzania with Festo as our guide, and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
From the very first day, Festo was incredibly responsible and made sure every part of our itinerary ran smoothly. We were lucky enough to spot all of the Big Five, and the most magical moment came on a sunset evening when we mentioned wanting to photograph lions in the golden light. He went out of his way to track down several lions for us, and we came away with some truly unforgettable photos.
His knowledge of the Serengeti is unmatched—he knows every road and hidden path like the back of his hand, and we never once got lost, even without clear landmarks. His driving skills are top-tier too; our vehicle didn’t have a single issue the entire trip, even as we saw many other cars breaking down along the way. What stood out most was his kindness: whenever he saw other drivers in trouble, he would stop to help them without hesitation.
This safari wouldn’t have been half as special without Festo. If you’re planning a Tanzania adventure, he is the guide to choose.

Great experience
Overall, I really enjoyed the safari. It was a whole new experience. We got close to the animals, which was amazing. The nature in both Serengeti and Ngorongoro is crazy beautiful. It is absolutely worth the trip. Our driver, Victor, was a great driver. I felt safe in the car at all times. He also had a lot of knowledge about the animals and the surroundings. He could answer any question, and learned us a lot of facts which I loved!
The first day was however a bit messy. The transfertime to Serengeti took way longer than it was supposed to, according to misunderstandings or poor planning. But apart from that, I am really happy with this experience. I would 100% recommend.
Affordable travel
Traveling with Africa Budget Tour was one of the highlights of my year. The safari combined excitement, learning, and relaxation in a way that felt perfectly balanced.
I was amazed by the diversity of animals we encountered throughout the journey. Every outing offered something different, making each day unique.
The scenery was equally impressive, with wide-open plains and dramatic sunsets creating unforgettable views.
The overall organization of the trip allowed us to focus entirely on enjoying the experience. Everything ran smoothly and efficiently.
I would highly recommend Africa Budget Tour to anyone looking for a genuine African safari adventure.

The Best Family Safari Adventure in Kenya
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Safari Experience with Francis!
Our family safari in Kenya was nothing short of amazing, and a huge part of that was thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Francis.
From the moment he picked us up, Francis made us feel welcome, safe, and comfortable. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion for wildlife were evident throughout the entire trip. He was always punctual, courteous, and eager to ensure we had the best possible experience.
What truly set Francis apart was his incredible ability to spot wildlife. Thanks to his sharp eyes and extensive knowledge of the Masai Mara, we were able to witness breathtaking sightings, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, cheetahs, and many other animals in their natural habitat. He always positioned the vehicle perfectly for photography and patiently allowed us enough time to enjoy every moment.
Traveling with my wife and young child, comfort and safety were extremely important to us. Francis went above and beyond to make sure our family was comfortable throughout the journey. He was friendly, attentive, and always happy to answer our endless questions about the animals, local culture, and Kenya itself.
One of the highlights of our trip was learning about the Maasai culture and traditions. Francis shared fascinating insights that made the experience much more meaningful and memorable. His knowledge transformed a simple safari into an educational adventure.
The vehicle was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable for long game drives. Every detail was handled professionally, allowing us to relax and focus entirely on enjoying the spectacular scenery and wildlife.
This safari exceeded all our expectations and created memories that our family will cherish forever. If you are planning a safari in Kenya, I highly recommend requesting Francis as your guide. His expertise, dedication, patience, and warm personality made all the difference.
Thank you, Francis, for making our dream safari come true. We hope to return one day and explore Kenya with you again!
Highly recommended without any hesitation!
