SAFARI? HABARI!
4/5

Just returned from an exciting private Safari with Migration Venture.
Denis is a dynamic young tour guide with an excellent sight able to spot animals from miles...4 on 5 of the bigs!!!
Also from Lake Natron to Olduvai Gorge we could rely on the support of other local guides very knowledgeable regarding flora and fauna copiously present all around us.
Tented accommodations are an absolute must if you truly want to experience the authentic safari, especially in the Serengeti, and game drives quite exciting!

Thank you Migration Venture, I had an incredible birthday celebration!

We had the best time on our safari, our guide josez was really friendly and we saw so many animals
4/5

We did the 6 day safari and saw so many animals, up close as well. Tour guide josez was really friendly and helped us spot lots of animals, especially the ones we particularly wanted to see. He was always punctual and accommodating. Food and lodges were really nice, Josez always provided water. Nice vehicle too. Our guide sorted out all our documents in between parks really quickly, so overall a really smooth and enjoyable safari

Good services
4/5

We choose Migration venture for a safari after a week of climbing Kilimandjaro with them. A friend of mine recommends this company at the beginning. It was cheaper with other tour and the service was good. They made a mistake with our departure date but everything was modified very quickly. Our guide Bonnie was really sociable, kind and always smiling. He paid attention at everything to make these days perfect and unforgettable for us. Thanks for everything! It was a pleasure to make this safari with you.

Thanks!

Wonderful safari with Noely
4/5

Very nice 5 day/4 night safari thanks to our guide Noely, who knows where to find the animals. The accommodations were very good. We were amazed in each of the 4 parks, especially at Gerenti. The only problem is the lack of a French-speaking guide, just a not very efficient guide/translator! But the main thing was to see all these felines (numerous lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, giraffes...) in very good conditions. Thanks again to Noely

Very nice operator I can recommend!
4/5

I can definitely recommend the safari tour! The landscape is amazing and you can see a lot of animals. We lost our baggage at flight and got it two days later. Migration Venture was very helpful in coordination to get it back at airport. Unfortunately because of the delay of the luggage we had to make a different route and had to pay 100 USD extra to Migration Venture which was okay for us. Our guide was very nice and as it was a fully private tour we were quite flexible.

Knowledgeable, communicative
4/5

Migration Venture Africa was very communicative, and they offered a good value for money in their offer. We initially compared a few and went for MVA as they had the number of days we wanted (5 days). The driver/guide picked us up in a clean car with water, we had a great introduction about the days ahead and we went off. The first two days were lovely, a lot of information was shared about the surroundings and habitat of animals, which I love because I'm a curious person. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti 2 days, Ngorongoro and lake Manyara. The days are intense but well organized, there's always water and lunches are good. Noel is a great guy and very knowledgeable, just ask him whatever you want to know. We stayed in Octagon Lodge, which was OK and the staff is lovely (they have the best Swahili samosas). However, in Serengeti we stayed at Baobab and that exceeded our expectations - lodged camps were luxurious, the food was good, there was a campfire with an amazing view on Serengeti and the sunset, I wouldn't mind to come back to this one. We were lucky to see the big 5 quite soon which also of course sets the tone. And we did the hot air balloon, which is a unique experience, however in hindsight it's more interesting to do it when the big migration is happening. For me Ngorongoro made the biggest impression because it's the versatile nature (lake, mountains, clouds, lush trees here and there) combined with mixed wildlife living together (all except for giraffes, and rhinos if you're lucky to see them). Lake Manyara was OK but I wouldn't go back, we saw there elephants and lions but as it's the nature you have to be lucky (which we were!). For all others - Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoror - amazing destinations! On the way from Ngorongoro to Serengeti you'll be passing by an archeological site (Laetoli footprints) which is worth a check. I'm blessed by this safari experience and we ended our holidays on the beach in Zanzibar.

Reliable and friendly guide (hakunamatata)
4/5

We were 2 friends travelling (females) and here for our 1st time. Some worries we initially had but hakunamatata after a few hours with Noel.
5 days of total relaxation and African massage when “eyes-hunting”. We were blessed to see so many animals: the big 5/the “ugly” 5. We had good laughs and very good night playing game or else. The Baobab tents were amazing, thanks again to Erik. Octagon has an amazing Chef (thanks the lunch box were great) and ask for room 1… very good to chill!
Thanks again migration venture Africa! Noel made our trip a success, no matter how many bumps on the road we had to go through! ;)

four day Masai Mara Safari
4/5

Our guide Erastus was able to get us in front of pretty all animals we wanted to see; lot’s of communication going on all the time on the radio between the guides.
The road trip (specifically Masai Mara to Nairobi is NOT recommendable - super lousy roads so it takes ages and has no value - take a plane)

Kili one day hike
4/5

Caesar our guide was on time and experienced at getting up the mountain for our day hike to the mandara huts. It is about 6 hours of hiking, and was pretty difficult for us (regular 10k runners). This is mostly because of the altitude, we live at sea level.

Good company with a lot of experienced personnel.
4/5

Together with Migration Venture Africa we climbed the Kilimanjaro (Machame route) and went on a 3 day Safari (2 days Tarangire NP and 1 day Ngorongoro NP). We had a great holiday, everything was well organized and the personnel (guides, drivers, cooks, porters, ...) had a lot of experience and were very helpful.
