This is a wonderful and unforgettable trip, and the Ways of Africa made it perfect.
5/5

This is my first time traveling in Africa, and before departure, I compared several local travel agencies in Kenya via email. Paul, the manager of Ways of Africa, always provided me with travel planning suggestions and offered relatively good prices in his replies.
During the trip, driver Paul knew every corner of every national park like the back of his hand. He was able to spot animals in the first place and would call other drivers to ask where the animals were. During this trip, we saw almost all the animals that can be seen in Africa. At the same time, Paul was also very humorous and talkative, and he never got bored as he wandered between national parks.
The accommodation and dining arrangements for this trip were also perfect, from high-end resort hotels to tent campsites. It was a very rare African experience, and regardless of the facilities, they were clean and convenient. The three meals were all very good, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
When applying for an eTA, Paul also helped us solve some minor problems and was indeed very willing to serve our clients.
PS: The manager and driver of this company are both named Paul, they are two different people.

Amazing Family Safari with Gemfinders Tours and Travel
5/5

We had a fantastic tailor-made safari experience with Gemfinders Tours and Travel and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.

We are a family of four with two children, and the trip was perfectly planned for us. Our journey started in Nairobi, continued through Amboseli and Tsavo National Parks (with two nights in the parks), and ended at the beautiful Diani Beach. The mix of adventure and relaxation was spot on.

The wildlife sightings were incredible. Thanks to our amazing guides, we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and so many other animals — basically all the Lion King characters, which was a huge highlight for our kids.

A big thank you to our guides Lowrance and Eric. They were professional, friendly, and great with children. Their knowledge of the parks and ability to spot animals made every game drive exciting and memorable.

Everything was well organized — comfortable vehicles, smooth transfers, and carefully chosen accommodations. What we appreciated most was the personal approach. This was not a standard tour, but a flexible, thoughtfully designed trip that truly felt made just for us.

Finishing the safari at Diani Beach was the perfect way to relax after the adventure.

We highly recommend Gemfinders Tours and Travel to anyone looking for a reliable company and a customized safari experience, especially families. We came back with amazing memories and would gladly travel with them again!

Everything from start to finish was smooth and as planned. Our Tour guide James AKA Jmagimagi was wonderful and amazing. Very experienced and knowledgeable about whole tour. His organisational skills were wonderful. Dorcas was amazing in the back ground taking care of administration.

Very professional, on time and going above and beyond to ensure excellent service
5/5

Very well managed tour. From the beginning Simon (my contact from Earthwings) was very responsive, answered all my questions and accomodated all my requests. They also give me the most competitive rates without compromising on any aspect of the service.
Lastly my driver and tour guide Barnabas was extremely professional..he ensured we got as many sightings as we could and he stopped wherever we wanted ensuring we got an exceptional experience.

Highly recommended

Enjoyable Rongai Day Hike
5/5

We were interested in hiking this less popular hike that is not really offered by most outfitters. Incredible Africa Adventures was more than accommodating to not only make this happen, but to give us a wonderful Kilimanjaro experience. Their communication was fast and clear, they were punctual, and friendly. Osambe, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the ecology of the area and as excited to do this hike as us. We had the trail to ourselves for the day, perfect weather, a delicious lunch… an ideal hike. This was our first experience in Tanzania and we could not have asked for a better one.

A truly incredible experience
5/5

It has truly been a dream come true. Stanford and Owen were incredible guides who made us feel at home from the very beginning. They were always kind and did everything they could to make sure we saw as much as possible. They shared many interesting facts and really made this experience even more special. We came because one of my best friends recommended Kihindo, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone going on a safari.

An amazing safari experience with a professional team who truly care about their guests.
5/5

Papa John showed us the most beautiful sunset in the world and fulfilled all our fantasies about safari with his professional guiding skills. We almost saw all the wild animals worth seeing on this route. Throughout the journey, John, with his professional knowledge, gave detailed explanations about the species, habits and characteristics of the wild animals. During the entire trip, John carefully ensured everyone's transportation, accommodation and travel experience. We were so lucky to see so many wonderful scenes, and we are very grateful to John for his dedication to his work.

About: Safari.com
They were very easy to deal with. They had great knowledge of the safari.
5/5

Safari. Com was a great company to deal with. However the lodge Hoyo Hoyo was quite run down. The staff were excellent and very helpful. However, for the price there were things that should be addressed. The pool was dirty, cloudy and unusable. The decking was in need of repairs and staining. The room had virtually no storage for travellers with suitcases. We had been travelling for 5 weeks and needed the cases. The room was dark and the bathroom was darker. The bed was comfortable. The food was generally good. Overall I would rate Hoyo Hoyo as a 3star property with some 5 star aspects.
