Excellent service
The courtesy,attention to details and the knowledge level of the guide was incomparable to any of the other safaris companies i have used when touring kenia, everything was well organised in detail and the tour started right on time with no delays, the hotels that they choose were excellent in service and the food was well prepared, thank you Tamasha Afrika for time well spent.

Excellent Safari
We had a amazing safari experience with Tamasha Afrika. Everything was perfectly organised and the lodges booked for us where great.
Our guide Joseph was friendly and very professional. An excellent guide like Joseph is definitely important for the overall experience.
I can highly recommend Tamasha Afrika!!

Beyond expectations
This is a much needed and well deserved review of Tamasha Afrika. My boyfriend and I went on a 4-day safari with them and it surpassed our expectations in everything, from communication to service to price. We did a LOT of research between the different operators and safaris and instantly found that Aileen from Tamasha was not only quickly responsive, Tamasha was offering the best deal also for what you get. They were even accommodating when we asked for alternative lodging (we highly recommend staying at the Ashnil Mara Camp) and offering different options for us. Aileen then personally picked us up from the airport after our massive delays and her waiting for hours, with still a warm smile on her face. Our driver, John, was amazing too. Very knowledgeable and has been doing safaris for 28 years. We never felt like we were being given false information and John was very very honest. Everything felt very authentic and we felt completely cared for. To top it all off, our airline had lost our luggage for 10 days and Aileen took over and was able to track it down and got it sent to us even many days after the safari. We were initially a little nervous Tamasha because they didn't have a lot of reviews, but that wasn't a problem in the end at all. Thank you SO much, Aileen and John (and Tamasha in general) for an absolutely wonderful experience!

A 10 day safari in Tanzania/Kenya was excellent without issues, great guides, trip and sights
A 10 day safari that started in Nairobi when we were picked up at the Airport. After overnighting in Nairobi, we set out with Joseph to Amboseli National Park, where we we flooded with wildlife and sights to remember. The next day after more sights, it was off to Tanzania, where we switched guides and Tiba took over. Over the next seven days, we visited many National Parks and Conservation areas, saw amazing sights, completed the "Big 5", stayed in fabulous lodges which Tamasha arranged, and learned lots about the Tanzanian people and their way of life. Tiba and Joseph both gave that extra for their guests, ensuring that we left the Safari happy and satisfied. A great Safari with great guides, in the best locations. Well arranged and planned, well executed!!!

Great experience, staff spent a great deal of time to ensure that our goals and needs were meet
We were impressed with the personal service we received during our total stay in Kenya. We had the same person from airport pickup, tours in the city and our safari in Masai Mara reserve. Tamasha staff also meet us on the way back and provided person tour of Nairobi prior to leaving. Our trip was well organised and staff was very knowledgeable making our trip very memorable. Our guide was determined to ensure we had a full safari experience. He was very knowledgeable of the reserve and the animals. We were also very impressed with the accommodation and the quality of the food. Beyond expectations.

Wonderful, safe, great availability and professionalism, great knoledge of place, park, animals
We dealt with Aileen she was so kind and patient during the planning, I wanted to spend 5 days arriving in Nairobi and going through Amboseli, Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha on the route, other agencies were not able to ensure me this plan, instead Aileen managed it without any issue. No bad surprise and also the little issue to the jeep, leaving the Amboseli that you understand could happen, has been managed very quickly. The tour and the timetable has been greatly respected with no rush. We have always felt safe, the driver showed good knowledge of the place, people and parks. We had the possibility to see all the big 5, and I realized my dream to be surmounted by Kilimingiaro, a myth for italian people due a typical tv travel programme, and to join animals in the huge and spectacular landscape of Masai Mara. We had an unforgettable picnic on the bush in Masai Mara. At lake Naivasha we had a great surprise, I thought It was just a place to stop to get in Masai Mara, instead we had an amazing experience on the walk safari at Crescent Island, we were very excited about that and giraffes were so graceful in their moving among us. All the lodges (Ol Tukai, Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort, Mara Serena) have completed this wonderful tour thanks to their immersion in the nature with respect of the nature itslef. The visit at the Masai Village is a must, it has not been only interesting, it has been emotional and touching the deep of our heart and sensibility visiting the little school full of tender and wonderful children. In Kenya you will have the possibility to improve your negotiation skill for each purchase, it is a ritual for them and it's amazing, they are very social and kind. Only one suggestion, the continous noise and conversation at the radio, sometimes breaks the silence and the sound of the surrounding nature so ask the driver to mute it in order to feel the sound of the surrounding nature. Thanks to Aileen, Tamasha and Sylas the driver for this great adventure. I really recommend Tamasha, they are local, they are professional, they are prepared, they wait for you
