EXCELLENT SAFARI!
It was the best vacation trip my wife and I have taken in a very long time and will be remembered for a long time.
This was a private Safari for 19 days in both Kenya and Tanzania for me and my wife.
Guides:
Both Guides were knowledgeable and informative. Their driving skills were second to none.
In Kenya, our driver George was great. We really connected with him. He went over and above what we expected. If we were to go again, we would want him as our Guide/Driver.
In Tanzania, Stuart was a great driver/guide as well.
Both allowed us to adjust our schedule to suit our needs and made sure we saw everything.
Lodges:
The Tented lodges exceed our expectations in every way. We would stay at these again.
The tour included a sunrise Ballon Safari in Masai Mara. it was a great addition to the tour.

Amazing safari experience
I had the most wonderful safari experience with Twinkle star tour thanks to the experienced guide Thomas (if i'm not mistaken), who didn't manage any effort to allow to see all the animals (including the big 5), and also all the valuable information he shared with me on each and every single animal we crossed!
I highly recomend this safari agency for the best safari experience

Outstanding Safari Tour Agency
My girlfriend and I wanted to go on Safari this year. We spent a part of the summer looking for a good package and came across Twinkle Star Tours & Safaris. We read their reviews and saw their package options and found the one that best fit our budget. Other than the financials, we were pretty much hands off, as Twinkle Star took care of everything for us. Even when our initial choice of Safari Accommodation fell through, they helped us find another one in our budget and with the same level of luxury. Our overall experience from beginning to end, was nothing less than excellent.

We had great experience with Twinkle Star Tour
We booked the 12-days tour with James (Twinkle Star Tours). We were a group of 12 people with 4 vehicles. James greeted us in the morning at the hotel where we stayed overnight. Our drivers also picked us up from there after the the greeting. Drivers were on time every day. The transfers from Kenya to Tanzania and back went smoothly. The experiences in both countries were great. Twinkle Star Tours exceeded our expectations, highly recommend Twinkle Star Tours for next booking. James also came to the airport at the end of the trip with his two daughters with some farewell gifts for everyone. Thanks for your attention to details in planning, James!

Above and beyond customer satisfaction, highly recommend. You can never go wrong with them.
My son and myself had traveled back home from abroad and was looking to do couple of safaris.
We ended up choosing twinkle star tours, little did we know it will be an experience of a life time. James the director, was charming and affable. I Love how you can turn even the most simple situation into something fun.” . He came out efficiently, broad minded and artistic. Better than a triple-scoop ice cream cone…with sprinkles.” Nakuru being our place of choice, we wanted to do a whole day tour at lake Nakuru. He made all the necessary arrangements. The whole time keeping intouch.
Micheal our driver/tour guide was remarkable. This dude was Amiable and knowledgeable of all kinds of animals, and where to look for them. From morning till evening he kept us entertained. We could not have asked for anything better.
Thank-you James for making our time at Lake Nakuru, memorable and Amazing. We appreciate you. Will sure come back for more. Next time we visit. Cheers.

Always at the service and very efficient
I live in Kenya and it’s the second time that I recommend Twinkle Star Tours & Operators to my visiting friends for their 12 days safari. Each time my friends were totally thrilled and satisfied by the experience and the safaris. James, the director, is very professional and diligent for any request. Each time the guides have been very good drivers and very good guides in the parcs. No doubt I will recommend them again for further trips.

Trip of a lifetime
Wow! Twinkle Star Tours went above and beyond to personalise this trip for me and ensure everything went according to plan. There were a few personal hiccups along the way but James (the director) was able to facilitate along the way always. Communication is fast, things are put in place efficiently and the staff treat you like family. The excursion days in Nairobi with Double Whiskey (Willy) were really great. The safari was a dream. Diani beach was beautiful. The team are amazing!!!! I can’t recommend them enough. I hope to be back in Kenya soon.

A Trip of a Lifetime
My wife and I did a 10-day safari with Twinkle Star Tours for our honeymoon while in Kenya. We had an incredible experience during the safari and it was a trip that will be remembered for a lifetime.
Shortly before the tour was set to start some hiccups happened with the payments, and James (tour organizer) spent hours upon hours with us making sure everything was settled and taken care of, one way or another. This is a company that truly cares about its customers, and the overall experience.
During the safari itself our guide was also called James. This dude was honestly one of my favorite things about the whole trip. He was extremely knowledgeable about anything and everything dealing with the animals and the locations we visited, and had an answers to all of our questions- and we had lots of them. His contagious laughter and easy-going attitude made the 10 days we spent together an absolute joy, and i could tell that he truly enjoys what he does.
The lodging booked for us was also on point. All of the places were extremely clean and comfortable, with breathtaking views on just about all of them. It was the perfect mix of adventurous tent-like places you’d expect on a safari, with just the right luxury touch. Just as an extra, I would also highly recommend stopping by the Maasai village for a meet and greet, which was an optional stop for us. It was life changing….
Thank you James and James for making this absolutely incredible experience possible.

Amazing Safari experience
Me, my husband and our daughter enjoyed this safari experience from the beginning. When organizing this trip James was answering my question and requirements on this trip very fast. I was liitle bit worried to travel on such a trip with our 3 years old daughter but suprisingly everything went without any problem. We had great guide and driver in one person Chambuso that knows safari areas very well and took us to right places to see all the animals. Talking about big five, we were lucky to see all of them except rhino, but no regrets because we saw so many orher animals so close to us. We stayed in Lemala Ngorongoro (amazing place- really recommend to visit this place) and Melia lodge in Serengeti, both great experience to stay in. So to summarize this trip in one sentence: great organization, excellent guide Chambuso, amazing places we visited, nice and high quality accomodation we stayed, so many animals we saw and really really good food. Recommend this holiday organized by twinkle star 100%. Thanks ao much to James and Chambuso for amazing experience

A very enjoyable safari, all I hoped for with no problems.
The driver Double Whiskey, was here to pick me up early in a nice clean vehicle. He is a very good driver that knew the park and local customs well. The camp, Ashnil was very nice, actually a little more than I expected for the price. Overall a very pleasant and well planned safari. Thank you
