Reasonably priced with professional staff
Naomi was very responsive to my email inquiries and was able to accommodate my needs with such patience to call each one of few available lodging options when there were not many places left available since we booked quite late. Flexible payment arrangements too.
Joel the driver and guide was an easy-going smiley guy and could really spot animals! He spotted a crocodile in the river from very far.
The vehicle itself could use some upgrades though - it was very bouncy and the seats were a bit slanted and very worn. However this did not turn out to be a huge problem as Joel was a very good driver.

Friendly, knowledgable and attentive to detail
We found Naomi and Gladys at Heritage of African Jungles to be warm, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to details. They were prompt and accurate with their responses by email, and very helpful when we visited them in their Nairobi office. We had a nice tour to Masai Mara National Reserve. Our guide, Francis, was professional, flexible, friendly, and an excellent driver. We enjoyed our time with him.

This I will remember for the rest of my life
We had a lovely experience in Kenya with this company. They had chosen the parks to visit very wisely and our driver Francis was a fantastic guy and provided us with a lot of nice info and facts and knew his way around. We were slightly confused when arriving to Nairobi and our contact was nowhere to be seen, but they arrived soon enough. Also one of our lodges was a bit less than perfect (the rest were simply perfect!), but that was due to us booking the safari so late and the better lodges already booked full.
This company gave us a way better deal (private tour, cheap) than the other offers we got and I cannot recommend them more! If I would go again, this would be the company I choose.

Exciting 2 weeks at East Africa with Heritage
Naomi feedback
In 15 days I have covered several parks including Amboseli, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, and Masai Mara expanding over two countries, Kenya and Tanzania. We also went to Kilimanjaro in Tanzania for a day trip covered Lake Nakaru and Lake Naivasha in Kenya. In this 15 days we stayed at various campsites, lodges, and hotels.
Naomi from Heritage of Africa spent hours over email and Facebook messenger to plan the entire trip according to my wishlist. This was our first trip to East Africa and she made it sure that me and my family, with an 11 year daughter, will be safe and comfortable throughout the trip.
During our stay we enjoyed all the parks having knowledgeable guides like Joseph, Peta, and Muini- among them we will rate Joseph the highest for his knowledge, constantly kept in touch with other guides to get the updates and his keenness to show us the best.
We landed at Nairobi airport at 2 am in the morning and our return flight was at 5 am in the morning. Naomi and Sara organized on time pick up and drop off. Time to time Naomi called the guides to make sure the tour was running as planned and their were no issues or grievances. The cars were in good condition, we did not face any problem relating to vehicles. Also in Tanzania, the land cruiser came with multiple bean bags which helped us quite a lot with resting our cameras.
Because of the knowledgeable and well connected guides, we had the experience of a life time and got the opportunity to see the much coveted African wild life including, the Big 5, and some very exotic and exciting moments like cheetahs hunting an impala, lion family eating their fresh catch of the day, cheetah jumping on top of a safari car, and wildebeests crossing the Mara River.
We enjoyed our trip to the fullest. I will personally recommend Naomi to my friends for their safari trip.
Asante sana Naomi and team.
