Perfectly organised
Everything was perfectly organised in the safari, we had fun and we were also very lucky to see so many beautiful places and animals. We are super happy we went with our driver Abdul and Italian speaking guide Obama, they are very good and hard working guys.

Fantastic experience
We had a great experience with Tanke Tours organising our safari in Kenya. Carol was very helpful and flexible in setting up a private safari starting from Nairobi, visiting Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Crater Lake, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo West, Tsavo East and ending at the beautiful Diani beach. Carol was always very quick to respond before the trip and also while in Kenya, she organised everything perfectly and we did not have to worry about a thing. She adapted the itinerary to our wishes and timings, and all the camps, lodges and activities she booked for us were wonderful. Carol is serious and very well organised, ready to solve any issues that might appear, very trustworthy, kind and lovely person.
During our 9 days safari we were in safe hands of our guide, Ali aka Ali Mombasa, who is experienced guide and calm and conscientious driver with extensive knowledge of wildlife, which he generously shared with us. Ali is super friendly and good with the kids and we all learned so much from him, not only about the nature and animals but also about the wonderful people of Kenya, their rich culture and daily life. It was amazing to travel through the diverse stunning landscapes, each day was a different experience, people were so kind and happy, the food was excellent and we loved the sunrises, sunsets and the sky full of stars at night. Ali was excellent in spotting animals and he gave us plenty of time to enjoy viewing them. We saw lots of amazing wildlife including elephants, lions, giraffes, rhinos, hippos, cheetahs, leopards, zebras, antelopes, jackals, monkeys, hyenas, wildebeest, buffalos, crocodiles, many different species of birds, and much more. Asante sana Ali, you are the best!
We could not make a better choice than Tanke Tours! Asante sana Carol and the team for making our trip such a joy, it was absolute pleasure which we never wanted to end. We will be back for sure:)

Highly recommend!
Our recent trip was absolutely amazing, exceeding all our expectations. The pre-tour communications with Caroline were perfect—reliable, trustworthy, and precise.
Sule, our exceptional driver, showed us incredible sights we doubt others on the safari got to see. We witnessed hippos, lions mating, and even lions with their cubs. We also saw a cheetah, many, many elephants, and numerous zebras. Sule knew everything about the animals and was exceptional at finding them as he drove us around the park, making the experience truly unforgettable.
We stayed at Salt Lick Lodge and Ashnil Aruba Lodge, both of which were superb. Salt Lick Lodge, in particular, was the most luxurious and fancy, offering a truly premium experience. From the bar's terrace at Salt Lick, we enjoyed watching zebras, monkeys, buffalos, and numerous birds while sipping on gin and tonics and watching the sunset over the lake. At Ashnil Aruba Lodge, we could see elephants from the swimming pool, which was an incredible sight.
The vehicle we used for the safari was not the newest and showed some wear, but it was sufficient for the purpose and got us where we needed to go. The food at both lodges was decent, not fantastic, but adequate for our needs. The hotels added greatly to the overall enjoyment of our journey.
Overall, the service was excellent, and the value for money was outstanding. We will definitely return in the future and make sure to book another safari with this company. Thank you for this fantastic trip. It was incredibly wonderful, and we couldn't be happier. Highly recommend!

Great program, excellent safari driving.
We chose Tanke Tours from several offers. Caroline always answered our questions quickly and accurately, so we already developed a sympathy when we placed the order. It was also no coincidence that they offered the best price-value ratio with the luxury category accommodations.
Fais was our tour guide, a very prepared and kind person. He always presented the animals in detail, he tried to see as many animals as possible.
Thank you to Tanke Tours for the essential help to fulfill the family's old wish. We think of them fondly.

Incredible experience worth its price!
Booking a trip with Tanke Tours Safari was the best decision I am extremely happy with. Caroline is an excellet trip organizer and a wonderful person. We chose a private tour option and we strongly recommend it as a great opportunity to enjoy it to the fullest. We were assigned an incredibly hospitable guide, Faiz, who was the life and the soul of the entire trip. Their reliability, friendliness and professionality deserve all the praise. They displayed a great flexibility and were extremely helpful as well as supportive when our flight got rescheduled. We strongly recommend choosing Tanke - you won’t regret it!

Great Experience !
Amazing adventure in an unbelievable setting! I travel a lot but it’s the first travel agency I am so happy with. I was welcomed with a great hospitality and enjoyed our communication from the very first phone call. Caroline stayed in touch with us all the time and helped us greatly with things as big as reorganizing the trip due to the flight cancellation and with the details such as checking us in for an internal flight. All the trips were well-thought-out and provided us with incredible experiences. I will surely book with Tanke Tours & Safaris again in the future!

Perfectly organised tours in resonable prices
We chose 4-days safarii at Tsavo Est, Tsavo West and Amboseli. All was organised perfectly. During making a offer they was able to fulfil our expectations. From picking up from hotel till getting back we had a very good care. Our driver/guide did his best for making our safari unforgetable. Thanks to him we saw a lot of animals. He was punctual, wellorganised, had a lot of patience. When he saw that in some place we wanted just stay longer to observe animals he gave us as much time as we need. Car was a jeep 4x4. Accomodation was very good in lovely places with tasty food and service. Was great to spend nights inside the parks! We only wished to stay longer. For next time I will choose Tanke Tours & Safaris. They are the best!
