Emmah was good and knowledgeable.
Emmah from Tourgy tours was a wonderful person to communicate with and answered all my questions with patience when planning.
She planned our trip to Etosha Swakopmund and Sossusvlei. All accomodation was good and excursions were great. Tour was planned well. Enjoyed our holiday.
Thank you Emmah.

Incredible Safari with an Outstanding Guide, Though Booking Communication Could Be Smoother
We recently completed our safari and overall had an amazing experience that offered excellent value for money. The itinerary was well-planned, and the actual on-the-ground service during the tour was very good.The absolute highlight of our trip was our guide, Festo. He was incredibly reliable, highly knowledgeable, and deeply attentive throughout the entire tour. Festo went above and beyond to make sure we saw as much wildlife as possible while keeping us safe and informed. We couldn't have asked for a better guide.The only downside to our experience was the office administration. The team was not very attentive or proactive when it came to communications before the trip. We often had to follow up to get updates or answers to our questions, which caused some unnecessary stress during the planning phase.That being said, the high quality of the tour itself and Festo's exceptional guiding made it all worth it. We would still highly recommend this safari for anyone looking for a great experience at a fair price.

Decent operator
We got lucky with this booking as our entire group was starting on the same day, doing the same tour, and all staying in the same lodge...we met many people who were delayed every morning because they were waiting for the other people at different lodges up to an hour away(a huge bummer as you miss an hour of the best wildlife viewing times) but our guide was amazing he really made our trip enjoyable(his name is Burton)

You can trust Tims jungle Explorer Safaris
Every appointment was precise and as promised. The cars came precisely every time to take us from plane and train and to the airport. The driver in Nairobi was excellent, taking us through the city to interesting markets and Karen Blixen Farm. The Voi lodge in Tsavo East was excellent as the lodge Kaya Imani near Mombasa. The guide in Mombasa was not good. He was too fast, though well paid. We did not get the opportunity to get a good sense or knowledge of the old town.

Outstanding Tour and good Organisation
Very well organized tour. The parks are excellent and the density of wildlife is outstanding. The accommodation was great. The lunch however felt very basic considering that this was sold as a luxury tour.
Our guide and driver did an excellent job, very good spotting of animals and provided us with lots of information while also providing us time and silence to experience amazing animal encounters.

To the dot.
Simon was an amazing tour guide. Always full of interesting facts about wild life and always answered any questions we asked. When with Simon, don't even think about killing a tsetsefly because it's all part of the wild. 🤗. Anyway, Lulu safaris organized everything to the dot, and all we had to do was enjoy nature and ourselves. We also had children with us and their needs were catered for to the dot.

Breathtaking safari experience with Spirit of Kenya
A huge thank you to Vanessa for her incredible patience, detailed answers, and smooth handling of our booking via PayPal. Everything was organized to perfection from start to finish!
Our guide Ken was outstanding—respectful, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. He drove us safely, respected nature, and thanks to his sharp eyes, we managed to spot 4 of the Big Five!
Traveling in a private 4x4 Land Cruiser made a world of difference for comfort. The Maasai Mara was absolutely mind-blowing, and I strongly advise booking as much time there as possible. Staying at Tulia Amboseli Camp in the Mountainview Superb Tent was also a magical experience with incredible views.
We highly recommend Spirit of Kenya to anyone looking for a seamless, top-quality safari!

Great Safari experience with Suricata
My girlfriend and I booked the 6-day mid-range option with Suricata. We did the Tarangire National Park, 2 days in the Serengeti National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Lake Manyara National Park.
Tarangire was a good entry point for our first Safari experience, since it is a little smaller and we already saw a lot of animals on our first day. We had an amazing encounter with a group of elephants we will remember for a lifetime. It was especially cool to do the tour in an open jeep. Our guide, Amos, was a calm and friendly presence and provided us with interesting information on the park and its animals.
Then the main part of our trip started, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was absolutely outstanding. We saw all the Big 5 and many animals more. It was too much to put into words. Just the scenery in the Serengeti is astonishing enough. Our guide was Pascal and he did an amazing job. He really went the extra mile for us. His knowledge of the park and its animals was second to none. His driving skills weren‘t too bad either, which is needed on the bumpy roads to Serengeti and within the park itself. I can‘t recommend him enough as a safari guide, you will not be disappointed!
The Lake Manyara National Park was a nice day to finish before we went back to Arusha.
The communication with Suricata around the booking was smooth and professional. All the pick-ups worked as discussed. On the second day, our schedule got changed probably to accommodate the general planning. We only found out about the change kind of by accident at the lodge reception. Better communication in case of changes would be appreciated. But in the end, everything worked out as booked over all, so it was a small inconvenience.
The accomodations were all in the range of what was promised. We really liked the Suricata Boma Lodge especially, a beautiful place. Our highlight was the Tanzania Bush Camp (Simba) in the middle of the Serengeti. Our two nights there were incredible, including hearing lions roaming through the camp in the middle of the night. Camp manager Steve and his entire staff were awesome and they make you feel right at home in the middle of nature!
Overall, we can definitely recommend Suricata as a safari operator.

Good
Overall very good for this budget. Could see most of the big five and other major animals. The guide was attentive and very knowledgeable. I still wish he could get information from other guides for more unique animal seeing sites - the most of the safari tour was spent on driving and spotting similar animals. But overall I’m happy that I joined this journey.
