More than we expected with an excellent guide and efficient organisation
5/5

Right from our enquiry to booking Amos was attentive and efficient. He brought our guide Ninah to meet us and brief us in what we needed to know. The safari days were exceptional thanks to Ninahs outstanding knowledge and experience with animals. We highly recommend this company as excellent value for money. The accommodation and food were great

Perfect 3 days safari
5/5

We did 3 days safari to Taranrige, Ngorongoro cater and Lake Manyara and it was all perfect.
From the very beginning it was easy communication by email. They answered all my questions and helped with local flight reservations. I was even asked if we have any special request for food.
The Guide Anderson came to pick us up in Arusha. He was very friendly, profesional and patient with us. We were only 2 pers in the car so he stopped it when and where we wished. After a short time he got familiar with our expectations and started to stop a car without any words to get best pictures of animals. Great jobb Anderson!

The communication weeks before via email was perfect and all important agreements were made promptly. The local organization and service was also perfect, friendly and attuned to my wishes and needs. I felt completely comfortable, safe and cordially cared for.

Wonderful Safari: Safe trip and an experienced, caring driver
5/5

We booked a 5-Day/4-Night Safari (Tarangire National Park, Serengeti, Ngorongoro) with Migration Ventures in January 2018 and are still very happy that we chose that company!
Communications ahead of the safari were very friendly and focused. For non-African customers it is important to keep in mind that you have to make an international banking transaction if you don’t want book via a travel agency.
The service before the trip left no wishes open but the best thing was that we had an extraordinary friendly and engaged driver/guide!
Ninah gave us the feeling of safety throughout the whole safari! We felt that he really liked his work and to be in the nature, with us and close to the animals. As a studied wildlife expert he was able to tell many interesting and informative background info about the whole Tarangire, Ngorogoro and Serengeti environment.
I can highly recommend Migration Venture and would book another safari at the company without hesitation. Thanks again to Amos, who managed our preparations and especially to Ninah, who as our trustworthy driver made this an unforgettable experience for us!

A fantastic experience with a local friendly company who really delivered beyond our expectations
5/5

The wildlife was fantastic and we saw the big five as well as many other animals alongside an exceptional range of birdlife and beautiful natural settings. The weather was perfect for us too.
The accommodation at Kudu Lodge, Rhino Lodge and Osopuko Tented Camp was delightful. Each of these places was very different in character but we really enjoyed our stay in each of them. Not only was the accommodation lovely, but the staff were, without exception, helpful and friendly. The food throughout was of a really good quality and all packed lunches substantial and much appreciated.
The first night at the hotel in Arusha was disappointing in that it was rather tired and basic and the bedroom and shower were, to be honest, not a great start to the trip. Having said that, the food there was good.
The hotel at Lake Eyasi was also fine, but if I am being picky, I would say that we had probably the longest time there to relax of any of the places we stayed, yet there was the least to do. The wifi was very poor and the pool, which we did use later on the afternoon for a quick swim, had no shade available and it was too hot to use the poolside loungers without umbrella protection. This as a shame as we would have been delighted to spend the afternoon by the pool. Also there were mosquitos in abundance so we didn't hang around the dining area in the evening. However, the staff were good and the food was fine.

The visits to the two different local communities and the lakeside visit were enjoyable and made particularly so by the great local guide Thomas.

The final day visit to Manyara NP was perhaps an anti climax as it was the least spectacular of the parks we visited and it felt rather in hindsight that if we had visited there before the other places we would have enjoyed what it had to offer more.

If we were to visit again, which I do hope we will at some point in the future, we would revisit Serengeti, Ngorogoro and Tarangire but probably not Manyara nor Lake Eyasi.

The vehicle was fine and what we expected and stood up to the terrain well.

Our driver and guide Anderson was very friendly and we were well looked after by him. The vehicle was always ready, clean and tidy with water and packed lunches all stowed away for prompt starts to each of the day's adventures.
He was able to drive us confidently between and inside the parks and gave us an overview of where we were and what we may see. He was good at spotting animals and helped us 'get our eye in' in the first few days. It was also nice having his company at mealtimes and I think we all felt comfortable with each other and there was plenty of laughing during the trip.
I think that Anderson does lack some in depth knowledge of animal characteristics and behaviour and I personally would have welcomed more 'commentary' about the way the animals live their lives etc while we were driving around - perhaps that will come with more experience. Having said that, we really did like Anderson and he did contribute to what was for both of us an unforgettable experience.

The liaison with Amos at the company office via email from the start, was the principal reason we picked the company. He got back promptly and helpfully to all my questions and inspired great confidence - a confidence which was definitely well placed.
As you know, there is a huge range of options out there on the web for the potential visitor, and having the overall umbrella of the Safari Bookings.com portal made me confident to explore companies within it. The company's offer and their responsiveness then stood out for me which made choosing to book with them an easy choice. Their price was reasonable and, I believe, pitched right for what they delivered and indeed the quality of the food and accommodation in most respects exceeded our expectations.
I definitely recommend this company.

The great team and organization brought us to the summit of Kilimajaro
5/5

With Amos in the office, nikkolas as our guide on tour and a very friendly team with us we had a very good time climbing the Kilimanjaro. The Accomodation before and after the climb at the "Secret Garden" was clean and good located with a nice Mountain view. Spending Time on the Mountain with our Guide and Team was wörth all the effort to get there. We are happy we made it and we are happy for chosing Migration Venture.

Execellent service and safari
5/5

The Company Provides extraordinary good service from the first e-mail contact with them througout the safari and even after the safari if you need any help with further travels and such. The safari guide who took us to Ruaha was fantastic! He knew everything about the Nature and wildlife of the park and managed to find even animals that are very hard to see at the time of year.
We would definetly recomend going with Migration Venture!
