Excellent personalized safari
This was our first safari and it felt slightly strange to plan everything with an operator that did not have a website or online reviews. Everything worked out perfectly. We were picked up at the airport, everything along the way worked like a well-oiled machine. We had customized a route that was slightly unusual with Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Amboseli. The different crews were all very nice. Food was always good and accommodation really quite ok.

Perfect Honeymoon
We did a safari through the national parks in Tanzania and ended the trip with some beach time in Zanzibar. It was the perfect experience. Our guide was knowledgeable, dependable, and so much fun. Thanks for everything!

Fantastic trip and very well organised with great guides
It was our first trip to Africa and after doing some research we chose CKC Tours. All our queries were responded to promptly and any changes we made were done without any trouble. We spent 10 days in Tanzania and Kenya.
John met us at our hotel in Nairobi and reviewed our safari, then introduced us to Vincent, our guide. The whole trip went without a hitch and Vincent and our guide in Tanzania were very capable and extremely informative about the wildlife. We were also transferred across the border by other people who were also very efficient getting us through customs and to and from the necessary airports.
All the hotels and lodges were of a very high standard.
We have no complaints and would highly recommend this company.

Nairobi, Amboseli, and Masai Mara
We needed help setting up a week in Kenya and John with CKC tours delivered. We wanted to attend a family wedding in Nairobi and then see the beautiful parks in Kenya without breaking the bank and we couldn't have been happier with the service and accommodations that John set up for us. We arranged our own air travel to Nairobi and John was there with Julius to pick us up. We stayed at the Nairobi Serena Hotel while in Nairobi and really enjoyed the hotel and found the staff and the restaurants quite good. Julius, our guide and driver while in Nairobi was excellent and had a wonderful knowledge of the city. Because our time was limited, John arranged for us to fly on Air Kenya to both of our lodge experiences. Our first flight was to Amboseli where we stayed at the Serena Lodge. The accommodations were lovely, the park was truly amazing and the the food was very good. We were well cared for the entire time. After 2 nights there we flew back to Nairobi and then on to the Masai Mara. We really loved the Masai Mara! The views were spectacular and the wildlife was amazing. The lodge was top notch! (But be careful around the baboons!) John was so easy to work with! With his help we were able to have such a wonderful and memorable trip. I can't recommend his services enough!

Nairobi. Nakuru. Masai Mara. Tanzania
We had a great time while we visited Kenya and Tanzania, John and team made a great job. They know every place and detail in safari, best guides to find animals explain exactly all information about escences of Africa.
We would repet it no doubts and for sure we repeat them (all team), especially John performance was amaizing.
The whole trip has been incredible.
Besides the places, the operation was impeccable.
It met expectations. The times, coordinations, and attentions were A1.
At all times we felt informed and well taken care of. Very friendly and concerned that the experience was special.
I recommend them for upcoming safaris. I hope to return next year.

Always great!
I have used the services of CKC Tours many times - individually and as part of a couple. They are always reliable, friendly and helpful. The driver/guides are wonderfully knowledgeable. CKC will customize your tour and accommodate your suggestions as well as make great suggestions for you to consider. We have become friends!

Couldn't have been better: the trip of a lifetime, expert guides, great hotels, rock bottom price.
CKC is the outfit to go with if you want local professionals, expert guides, individualized itineraries, a small group and incredible low prices for the high quality experience. The largest group they take is six, so if a couple can find four friends, you have your own private safari and you can write the itinerary yourselves. Mr. Muhoho knows his business thoroughly, responds to communication almost immediately (granted the time difference), is understanding and completely flexible. He can give you good advice on your selections. CKC safaris are advertised as "medium" range but to our eyes most of the lodges were luxurious, with spacious, comfortable rooms, all facilities and excellent, elegantly presented food. The two "tent camps" in the Serengeti were more like the tents a king would travel with: large, multi-room, permanent toilet, hot shower, vanity, and cowhide rugs on the floor! His guides could win a Nobel prize for driving on the difficult roads of the parks. By all means, take the optional ranger walk from the Rhino Inn down to the watering hole where the Masai herders bring their animals.
