Amazing wild life and hospitality experience
5/5

We came with high expectations and the team of "Heritage of African Jungles" and, in particular, our guide topped them by far. He was very friendly, most helpful and extremely knowledgeable. It was a great pleasure being his guest. He was able to lead us to so many wild animals, we did not miss any we wanted to see. Also the whole trip was very well designed and the lodges were well chosen. It was an amazing experience.

Incredible experience
5/5

An incredible experience! Naomi's organization was top-notch; she chose the best lodges for us within the reserves, and even got us a free upgrade in one of them.
On top of that, she provided us with a very friendly and pleasant guide, Lucas, who had extensive knowledge of Kenyan wildlife and always sought the best spots for photography.
If I return to Kenya, I would definitely choose this company again 100%!!

The review below is the personal opinion of Paul and not that of SafariBookings.
Don't have a tour with this company. Don't give them any money until tour is over.
1/5

My wife and I were supposed to have a 17 day Kenya and Tanzania Safari from June 26 through July 14 2022. Heritage of African Jungles (Naomi Kemboi or sometimes Kigen) contacted me through Safari Booking. We shared a lot of emails between their email address ([email protected]) and mine. After then I transferred money twice in Apil and June through wire (more than $12,000) because they insisted wire transfer. After receiving final payment, they stopped responding to my emails. I called Naomi, and she said that she had not received any money and money was sent to the wrong place because their email was hacked by somebody and she thought that I had cancelled my reservation. she insisted that money was received by somebody else. However cancellation letter Naomi said she received was classified as a spam mail and my email address was not mine. Investigations through many sources are under progress to find out who has committed this fraud crime. I think there is only one or two people working inside the company. This fraud case was completely caused by Heritage of African Jungles and they should be responsible for the loss, but Heritage of African Jungles does not respond to me. I want to inform everybody of this serious fraud case in order for him or her not to have monetary and mental damage like me. My wife and my dreams for the last two years have been completely broken away due to this fraud.

Dear Paul,
Its quite unfortunate reading such a review from you despite our constant communication in resolving this matter! The Investigation is still underway but i can see you have already ran out of patience and decided to write such a terrible review about us! First of all the email address that you have said you communicated to us with is wrong ! We have all the evidence and proof to show that you were not dealing with us but with a different person purporting to be us or me, an imposter or a fraudster where you ended up transferring money to a Nigerian bank account without verifying that the information you received was real or fake ! You never took time to call us or even whatsapp despite the fact that you had all our contacts with you ! Following all the conversations between you and the fake person actually raised read flags, at some point you even asked this person what was the relationship between him and Heritage of African Jungles but you still went ahead and send him the money not once but twice without receiving a formal receipt ! It was so devastating as we do not force our clients or any one to send money ! as per the conversation you shared with us showing the conversation between you and the other person, it actually confirms that he was so much in a hurry to receive money from you even to an extend of demanding that you pay before such a such a day! A professional person and a reputable company like ours do not do this ! The matter was reported from our end but we did not receive enough evidence that shows the money was actually transferred to the wrong person which you said was confidential and we accepted. We have provided you with all the information as requested but since then, you have been threatening us that if we do not compensate you for the loss, you will publish a bad review in all the websites and social media! You want us to take full responsibility while the fact remains that you did not take due diligence while transferring the money to a bank in different country while the actual tour operator is in Kenya! It was such a huge mistake ! You never got a formal receipt for the payments, which proves that this was fraud ! You are blaming us for something as serious as this as we didn't receive any money from you. On my last email, I personally asked you how we can amicably come to an agreement about settling the issue but you thought of tarnishing our name instead. We feel that this is quire unfair and untrue.

Our safari was simply amazing! Diligent guide, prompt communication and wonderful service!
5/5

Million thanks to Naomy and Francis (our guide) for 7-day and 2-day safari organized for us! Everything was just like I wanted - timing, safari experience, accomodation and communication. Special thanks to Francis for trying to find diverse wildlife for us, we were lucky to see a leopard three times during 7-day safari and that's for sure due to Francis' diligent approach. I also enjoyed communication with Naomy - I had many requests and all replies were prompt and relevant. I would definetely recommend this company to my friends.

Amazing 5 stars tour operator
5/5

We had an absolutely perfect and unforgettable 12-days Safari with Francis. All our dreams came true… Our guide Francis was really amazing, we will never forget this wonderful experience in our life and are looking forward coming back on Safari with Heritage of African Jungles next year… Maybe then we will enjoy Meru NP and perhaps Lake Turkana area.
The organization by Naomy was simply unbeatable, all our needs were met perfectly
Naomy go on like this!

Yours
Ines and Ralf from Germany

Perfect Christmas Safari
5/5

An absolutely seamless 9 day safari experience. From first contact through to the final airport drop off we could not have asked for a better safari experience. Naomy was arranged a brilliant varied itinerary taking all of the best Kenya has to offer.

Some long days travelling between national parks but not a problem given the comfortable vehicle provided. A special mention to our driver and guide Francis who’s service was outstanding, always flexible and managed to get us to where we needed to be for the best game viewing.

An extremely positive safari start to finish and have no hesitate in recommending Heritage of African Jungles for the ultimate safari holiday.
