Absolutely brilliant tour operator, big enough to cope, small enough to care.
Patrick and his team were brilliant throughout and worked tirelessly to make sure we had a great time. We had lots of little things we needed to change and they accommodated every one of them as we went with a real personalised service. Our Kenyan guide Joseph was fantastic, with over 20 years of experience, he knew the parks backwards which made a real difference to having a great safari.
We had a week visiting Kenya and Tanzania and were delighted with the service, care and expertise. The guides and Patrick were always on time, fully reliable and were great companions on our trip. Even when we hit a few car problems from the roads, they were able to resolve them in record time and keep things moving.
Couldn't be happier with Shanjoy tours and would definitely thoroughly recommend them for their knowledge, service, trustworthiness and flexibility.

Patrick was like a good friend!!! Professional service!
We went to Kenya with my wife and we had a really good experience with Patrick. He is an extremely good guide and friendly man. We enjoyed every single moments. Basically our tour was a cultural one, but we combined it with a safari. Thank you Patrick, hopefully see you soon!

Local operator, great service!
After an exhaustive search, Shanjoy was the company chosen due to the fluid communication I had at all times and its ability to adapt to my requirements.
It was an unforgettable 10 days of safari. A unique experience that I highly recommend. Especially if it can be done in the low season, as was our case.
Thanks to Patrick and his entire team for their professionalism and a special mention to our driver in Kenya, Joseph, whose driving skills were magnificent!

Exceptional
Our African safari was an incredible experience. All four of us really enjoyed it and stated that this was our best family vacation ever. Being out there in nature and surrounded by wild animals in their habitat was an extraordinary experience. Shanjoy Tours and Safari did a fantastic job from the beginning to the end: providing us with tour info, answering our questions, providing options, then taking care of our every need, listening to our desires, driving us around, showing us the best at every site, etc., etc.
Patrick was excellent in arranging everything for us and welcoming us to Africa. Joseph, our driver and guide in Kenya, was terrific. Maneuvering through brought roads, taking us to the right places to see the wildlife, listening to our needs, and driving us from place to place, for many hours every day. Hasan, our driver and guide in Tasmania, was as good.
All of them were friendly, funny, welcoming, professional, and helpful. They took great care of us and showed us the best Kenya and Tasmania had to offer. We just had to lay back, relax, and enjoy the ride.
The people of Kenya and Tasmania are the nicest, friendliest, and helpful humans I have ever met. The national parks and places Joseph and Hasan took us were amazing and beautiful, full of wildlife and gorgeous landscapes. Joseph and Hasan provided us with great insight into what we were seeing, the names and types of animals and vegetation, the history of the area, cultural details, etc. We learned so much during our trip besides enjoying the safaris and tours.
We saw so many animals in different settings and a lot of babies. Our experience was indescribably wonderful. The lodging was good and varied as well. The food was surprisingly tasty and varied. The balloon over Maasi Mara ride was so much fun.
We cannot recommend Shanjoy Tours and Safari enough. And we cannot thank Patrick, Joseph, and Hasan enough. They just did a fantastic and professional job. We were extremely pleased with our experience and interaction with them and will forever be grateful for their kindness, friendship, and help. We loved our trip.
Go to safari with these guys You will love it, too!
Thanks, Shanjoy!

Excellent, good value, friendly tour company
We researched multiple companies and chose Shanjoy because they were very responsive and competitively priced. We did a safari that combined reserves in Kenya and Tanzania and Patrick was very patient about customizing it for us. From our arrival in Nairobi, Patrick and Joseph made sure we were well taken care of. They are both excellent wildlife spotters as well as very nice people. We felt as though we were traveling with friends. Hassan was our guide for the Tanzania portion of the trip and he was also great. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Shanjoy.

Great value safari and well organized.
I can't recommend Patrick and his team highly enough. Every detail was communicated and explained to us before the trip.
Our 9-day Kenya - Tanzania safari was well-organized, well-planned, and well-executed.
Both drivers that we had were friendly and knowledgable.
I did a lot of research beforehand and received a lot of quotes. I'm really glad we went with Shanjoy Tours and Safaris. great people to deal with - 5 stars

Well prepared and knowledgable safari team! Recommended!
We booked the 10 day Kenya and Tanzania safari tour stopping in Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Seregeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Amboseli.
All accommodation was either 3-4 star and all had buffet dinners and often prepared lunches for the longer day drives. All accommodation was really nice and food was quite good.
The trucks were comfortable and the drivers were super nice guys in each country.
Everything was easy and we had no issue entering parks or going through Boarder control. Please remember your Yellow Fever certificate for Tanzania.
We saw soo many animals on our 10-12 half day game drives. It was an amazing experience and I would thoroughly recommend it. We only wish that we had tacked on a trip to the beach to relax afterwards. Be prepared for lots of driving and incredibly animal experiences!

Patrick made our first safari unforgettable and suited both our expectations and our budget.
Communication with Shanjoy Tours and Safaris was very good from the first quote. We made a multitude of changes both because of their advice and because of our interests. He always advised us and looked for the best solutions to fit our budget. Patrick accompanied us in Masai Mara, the 4x4 is very good and perfectly adapted with plugs (US, UK, EU compatible) to charge phones and cameras. It has an ideal tray to organize all our electronic devices. With it we were able to see Lions mating, several leopards with their prey in the tree, Cheetahs eating their prey and the harassment of Vultures. Lioness eating a buffalo, we even found a Serval that is the most difficult to see due to its size. Multitudes of elephants, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, gazelles. A magical moment was being able to enjoy the crossing of the Mara River. In the Tanzanian part, we changed drivers and guides and we were accompanied by Mudy, a young guide who spoke Spanish, and Hasam, a great driver with a lot of experience and knowledge of animals. We had some problem with the 4x4 that was heating up and not starting but it was resolved. In Tanzania we were lucky enough to see a lioness hunt. The accommodations were perfectly adapted to our needs and Patrick even upgraded us to the latest Hotel in Ngorongoro. I must highlight that the airline lost our suitcases and Patrick did everything possible to help us recover them. Thank you, it has been a pleasure to enjoy this adventure with you.

Once in a lifetime trip -- incredible tour!
Patrick answered all of my questions (and I had a lot of questions) before booking. He was detailed and helpful and gave great advice! They were also helpful and responsive during our trip for anything we needed. We did a safari at the Masai Mara and a trip to Diani Beach. Patrick picked us up personally with a driver from our hotel in Nairobi for airport transfer - it was very nice to meet him! We did flights between locations and they were smooth, easy and quick transport. We absolutely LOVED the Losokwan camp in the Lemek Conservancy. We were concerned staying outside of the Masai Mara, but we actually loved our drives in the conservancy. Such an incredible trip and we'd recommend to anyone!
