A reliable tour operator
I went to Tanzania with a group of friends. Had read a lot about safaris and chose the tour operator carefully. To make sure ours was unique and unforgetable. And it was- perfectly planned, well organized, professionally run. The guide was the best possible- competent, responsible , helpful and cheerful- always with a big smile. A great driver also. And with terrific eyesight- capable to spot hidden animals-that is what safari is about! We had enough time to take photos, rushed politely only not to be able to see more and not to be late to leave the park , got everywhere in time. When a friend got il, he found the nearest doctor.
Generally, we received more than had expected.

Day trip to Ngorongoro Crater
Richard was quick to respond to all emails and gave all the details you need for your trip. The crater was a dream destination for us. It was beautiful and animals for miles. We got to see new species and many lions and hippos, elephants, and the list goes on and on.
Our guide was great and pointed out all the animals. He told us all about the Maasai people who live around the area and the other parks nearby. We had a nice lunch by the hippo pool where we met Richard and another driver, who made us feel welcome. We spend a long time at this park and we appreciated every moment we were there.
This company also does many other safaris and we highly recommend checking them out for your Tanzania adventures.

Richard is a great driver and guide
Richard was our driver and guide for Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. He was very knowledgeable, polite and we felt safe and in good hands with him the entire time. Highly recommend.

Great experience
Our safari trip was amazing. Richard and James were highly professional and were helpful at every stage. James was our driver and he definitely knew a lot about the area, the animals and the people. He was very patient and helped a lot on the road. In the way back home we heard other people in the airplain talking about their experience with other companies and how it was not as expected. I would recommend a safari trip with Mali Kale

Wonderful day trip at Tarangire
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful experience at Tarangire national park! The communication with Richard was perfect, and he made sure to have everything arranged despite the very short notice we gave him. James, our driver and guide, was incredibly kind and experienced, and we really enjoyed spending a day with him. This was our first safari experience and we didn´t really know what to expect. Now I can say that I´m glad we chose Mali Kale, as the service with got was definitely worth the price, which was also very convenient!
We had an amazing time on safari with Richard that exceeded our expectations in every way!
Richard Bonaventure provided my wife and I with an experience of a lifetime. We spent a full week with Richard visiting the Serengetti, Ngorongoro Crater and 2 other National parks. Richard planned and executed the entire trip to perfection! He communicated the plan for each day the evening before and we were able to customize the experience to our personal preference. His knowledge of where to go in each of the parks to best see the animals throughout the day showed his experience and his commitment to our enjoyment. He is extremely well organized and a great planner and driver! Richard was tireless in seeking out superior viewing and photographic opportunities for us. He answered any questions we asked about the animals, landscape, culture, politics, religion and lifestyle of the areas we visited. We have travelled quite extensively and Richard stands out as one of the best guides we have ever dealt with. We highly recommend a safari wth Richard!

A week with the best eyes of the bush ;-)
We have spent an incredible week visiting the National Parks of Selous, Mikumi and Ruaha with our guide Richard Thomas Boniventure.
We have greatly valued his thorough knowledge of the area, his accute sense of observation and his highly reliable driving. He has always given us all the time we wished to admire the species we had already taken pictures of so many times !
Aside from all the animals we have seen, the highlights of our safari were the chance to get a very close look to a cheeta and to see a leopard go down from a tree after having been waked by the distant noise of our vehicule during his nap. The incredible starry sky we have seen at Ruaha is another wonderful memory.
The journey from one park to the other has given us the opportunity to discover beautiful landscapes and to get an idea the local population's life. The lodges where we stayed (Selous Kingalodge, Vuma Hills, Ruaha River Lodge) is everything one can dream of.
We can warmly recommend Richard's services and wish to thank him once again for his excellent job.

Serengeti and Ngorongoro
We took tour from Mali Kale. It was the best experience i’ve ever had! Thanks to Richard for organising everything in a perfect way and to our lovely driver and guide Masai Nogo for the great animal experience, driving nicely and carefully. And of course can not forget Dr. Nelson for the delicious food. We did Serengeti and Ngorongoro with them. Highly recommend it!!
