We toured with Tman -- he was professional, humorous and safety conscious.
We felt secure and had a very enjoyable experience seeing the animals in their natural environment. Also the bbq lunch was really good ..

Knowledgeable
TMan is our tour guide. He is knowledgeable and helpful. He shared information and fun fact of the Safari. We enjoyed his tour. Keep it up.

Amazing trip!
We had the most incredible trip from Nairobi - Tsavo East - Diani Beach.
Before travel, Rosy was very responsive to our queries and was flexible in adjusting the itinerary to suit our requirements. On day one, our lovely guide Philip was ready and waiting at the arranged pick up time. The jeep was comfortable and Philip was a fantastic & knowledgeable guide/travel companion - we enjoyed spending time with him. The accommodation (Voi Wildlife Lodge) was amazing and we saw plenty of animals during our game drives. We just wish we'd booked a longer safari!
The only feedback I would give is that it would be great if a final itinerary could be provided just before travel, once the balance is paid (in a similar format to the quotes), confirming all arrangements and specifying pick up times etc. This would avoid any confusion on the day and provide clarification/reassurance, especially for first-time visitors.
Overall, I feel that the tour offered great value for money and would use Arosy Safaris again if we are ever lucky enough to revisit Kenya in the future :)

“A professional and well-organised tour operator that made our Rwanda experience truly memorable.”
I had a wonderful experience booking my Rwanda safari through Safari.com. Anja was incredibly helpful, professional and attentive throughout the entire process. She was always responsive, knowledgeable and made sure all the details of our trip were well organised.
She made the planning process easy and stress-free, and I really appreciated her personalised assistance and attention to detail. The Rwanda itinerary was beautifully arranged, and the overall experience was very special.
I would definitely recommend Safari.com, and especially Anja, to anyone planning a safari. Her support made a real difference to our trip.

Good Quality Private Game Drive Trip
Our tour with Jocky was six days long and we visited Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli. The lodging was good, food was tasty, our vehicle was a nice 4x4 Land Cruiser, and our guide, Caxstone, was helpful spotting animals.

Amazing experience in Tanzania
We used Leader Expeditions through Getaway Trekking an Australian company for our African adventures. Not only did we climb Mt Kilimanjaro but also experienced 3 great safari as well. The climb was well staffed with a great team well versed in the processes. Excellent food was provided throughout our journey and we felt well supported. During the Safari even with a vehicle breakdown, problems were solved quickly without any inconvenience to us.

Very good safari experience overall
We had a very good safari experience overall, and we would especially like to highlight our driver, Ben. He was extremely professional, punctual and clearly very experienced. It was also clear that he genuinely enjoys his job and takes pride in what he does.
In just two days of safari, we were incredibly lucky to see the Big Five, which was one of the highlights of our trip. Ben is also a very good photographer and kindly shared the photos he took with us at the end of the safari. This was a lovely extra and something we really appreciated.
Ben was consistently punctual and always respected the schedules and timings that had been communicated to us, which made the whole experience very smooth and well organised. His driving skills were also excellent, and we always felt safe and comfortable during the game drives.
There are, however, a couple of areas that we think could be improved. The main one is the guiding and communication. The driver-guide was not particularly communicative and did not spontaneously provide much information about the animals, their behaviour or the ecosystem. When we asked questions, he was happy to answer and provided useful information, but the experience was more that of having an experienced driver who knows the park very well than having a traditional safari guide who actively explains what you are seeing throughout the game drive. For us, this was the main difference.
We would also like to mention the pressure placed on drivers regarding reviews. We had the impression that drivers are under quite a lot of pressure to obtain positive reviews from clients, and this made us feel somewhat uncomfortable. We completely understand that reviews are important to a company, but we believe this could be handled more carefully by the management of Axis Africa Safari. Drivers should not feel that they have to put pressure on clients to leave a review, particularly a positive one. We believe that allowing reviews to happen naturally would make the experience more relaxed and enjoyable for both clients and drivers.
Overall, we had a positive experience and are especially grateful to Ben for his professionalism, excellent driving skills, punctuality and for helping us have such a successful safari. Seeing the Big Five in just two days was an unforgettable experience, and Ben played an important role in making it possible.

Amazing safari experience
We booked our safari at kilipath african safaris with happy! She was very quick to respond and planned everything according to our wishes and expectations. Except for the leopard, we were able to see all the other Big Five animals and many more.
Since it was a 2-day tour and we didn't want to spend too much money, she also tried to offer us a more budget-friendly accommodation. The accommodation was okay for one night, but we were a bit disappointed as it didn't quite meet our hygiene standards.
Hence the 1-star deduction, but otherwise everything was perfect. So just go for a mid-range accommodation instead of a budget one then you can truly trust them blindly and have your best safari tour ever with Kilipath African Safaris! ✔️😊
Thank you Happy & Frenk (our safari driver)

Very attentive to the well-being of the guests and always available.
I planned a self-guided trip with Aedena Rovers from Amboseli NP via Laikipia Plateau to Masai Mara and everything went well.
