3 day safari to Maasai Mara
5/5

We had a three day safari to the Maasai Mara. Our driver was very prompt to collect us from our accommodation in Nairobi to drive us to the Maasai Mara, including a stop to view the Rift Valley.

We were lucky to see a black rhino within a few minutes of driving through the gates of the National Park. Our driver decided not to take the "main route" to our accommodation, and instead took us on a "bonus" game drive where we saw 5 cheetahs relaxing underneath a tree and a 6th sitting in the open.

Despite being on safari during the long rains, our driver was very skilled at picking good routes to ensure we did not get stuck and we were very pleased to be in a 4x4 vehicle! He was very knowledgeable about the animals and birds in the area and happy to answer lots of questions. Our driver knew the area very well and where best to find various animals.

Highly recommended.

Wonderful journey!
5/5

We visited Maasai Mara. Our guides Antony and Jack were excellent! They were not only familiar with animals and birds, very kind to us. Our journey in Kenya became an unforgetable memory all because of them! We could watch a lot of animals and spend good time with them. We want to enjoy saffari with them again!

Great service, excellent tour of Masai Mara & Nakuru
5/5

Spent 3 nights on safari with my wife. This trip was absolutely fantastic. Antony took care of everything: picking us up from the airport, and dropping us off, door to door, so in reality our guide worked with us for 5 days on the trip.


He took us from airport to hotel to safari lodge, from lodge to lodge, and back to Nairobi for our departure, was on time for everything, walked us through everything that was possible, didn't pressure us and helped us make good choices about what we wanted to do, and was super professional/reliable/knowledgeable as well as friendly and funny. He troubleshot logistics for us when necessary and was better at getting the jeep around the mud than almost anybody else we saw out on safari, and even towed several other tourists who'd gotten stuck with their guides out of the mud (we went during an unusually rainy May which might've precluded us from seeing things, our guide made sure it didn't).

We were able to spot the big five and saw a ton more thanks to him, all of this and at a way more reasonable price than I expected!

This was our first time in Kenya, Africa and first safari, and if we were returning or had friends going I'd 100% recommend working/booking with them.

Again first timers and New Yorkers so we were really stressed and worried things wouldn't go well, after one day with our guide we realized there was nothing to worry about.

Thanks again!!! 110% everything we wanted it to be. Highly recommend working with these guys, and after they saw our incredible photos, recommending these guides to my parents, he was awesome. Once in a lifetime trip, so much easier than I thought it would be :-D

Dreamy days!
5/5

It was my first overseas trip.Although it was very uneasy, the two guides were very friendly and reliable and enjoyed traveling with peace of mind.The guides were very detailed about animals and I was able to see many animals.I also want to ask them to drive and guide when traveling to East Africa!

Fantastic
5/5

My partner and I,did 8 days tour with Tazama Africa holiday and we had the best times of our lives.we were never dissapointed and we sighted all the animal we had hoped to see.
We were pleased by the high level of professionalism throughout our trip.Credit to Jack our guide for driving us to animal dwellings ,explaining animal kingdom and most importantly we had uninterrupted view of the animals.I would recommend Tazama Africa to anyone as the investment you make in your holiday will be in good hands.Thank you Jack and the office guys Lydia and Anthony for assisting during planning stage and making our trip to Maasai Mara worth and memorable.

A perfect debut trip through Kenya's wilderness!
5/5

Antony is a very humble and kind person with a lot of knowledge of Kenya's Wildlife. My debut trip to Kenya was with him and we spent a quality 12 days with him through Masai Mara, Nakuru & Amboseli. Must say we did not miss anything. Highly recommended for a family trip as well as for photographers who would like to be with a person who understands light and positioning.

I planned my own 2 weeks, Antony was my Safari guide
5/5

The experience was unforgettable. Antony never stopped finding the best for me. As a solo traveller I could not have asked for more in service, communication always the gentleman he took time. It was an adventure to remember, the animals I saw ...it was remarkable thanks to the best guide.

Great 3 day safari!
5/5

A group of 4 friends and I went on a safari with Antony in the Masaai Mara and it was great. He was very attentive to our needs, and generally great to be around. He explained things in detail when we asked, and otherwise let us have our own time and work with our schedules and preferences. He was a lot of fun to chat with.
He's also a hard worker, and despite the low season when we went, Antony went out of his way to ensure we would see as much as possible. He is very respectful of the environment but still managed to get us to see all the Big Five and many other rarities.
Antony was also a phenomenal driver. The conditions were not great (very muddy), but we always felt safe and he took the necessary precautions to stay where it was safe.
He was a pleasure of a guide and I recommend him greatly.
