A fantastic adventure
12-day private safari with an extended stay in Zanzibar. Very good organization of the whole. The basis of such a trip is a good driver/guide. We probably got the best of the best. Kenyan - Peter, Family Man and Tanzanian - Wazeri, Mr. Minister. Both fit in the image of the 5-star Hakuna Matata Brothers and have extensive knowledge of African fauna and flora, excellent orientation in parks and reserves, and extraordinary skills to safely transport you even to places that are not on the map. Accommodation is a separate story. All charming, each in a different way. Starting from a city hotel, through a colonial estate, bungalows, tents, to a charming corner of paradise. Courteous and caring service everywhere. Zachary at Jacaranda Lake Elementaita Lodge is also especially memorable. A few-hour walk with him, stories about the history of the area, animals (especially birds) was an additional attraction.

Unforgettable Kenya & Tanzania safari with reliable tour operator
I had an amazing experience with Silver Spark Africa Safaris on a two-week Kenya & Tanzania safari, the entire trip was extremely seamless and without any major issues - Abongo made all of the park and hotel arrangements and my tour guides David and Waziri were extremely knowledgeable about the local wildlife and made my entire trip quite enjoyable.
My two week tour hit the major destinations of Maasai Mara, Amboseli and Serengeti while also hitting some of the other surprisingly amazing smaller destinations like Ngorongoro and Lake Nakuru. Trip ended with a three night stay in Zanzibar to unwind after a busy yet fruitful safari. I didn’t know where to begin when I started out so I’m glad I had Abongo to plan and arrange everything for me - do not expect five stars from your hotels but they were all in the least secure, sufficiently comfortable and with a good selection and quality of food.
If you don’t have two weeks I think you could still get a complete safari experience by focusing in on any of the big three destinations mentioned, but my personal recommendation would be to go with either Maasai Mara or Serengeti for the richest experience.

Private Safaris with very experienced guide.
This private 6-days Safari was absolutely stunning! Always smiling and laughing with our guide because it was a dream come true for my family friend the four of us. Would recommend Silver Spark Africa Safaris to everyone who is looking for a unique and really personal safari experience, which is not commercial at all.

very experienced guide and good arrangement of all activities
I spent wonderful 10days with my guide David. He know everything about animals and plants in Kenya, always can find best position to observe animals. I knew I will have a wonderful vacation after the first day and we see all big five in first 3days already and they are sooo close. I have to admit that I saw way much more as expected.

Well experienced and organized Safari team with an excellent guide
We fully enjoyed the 6 Day Safari.
Everything worked perfectly and we felt so lucky and safe with Silverspark Safari and the team.
Even on request before arrival we could change the proposed accommodation at Lake Nakuru.
Highly recommended!

6 day best experience.
We arrived in Kenya late in the night and we found the driver still waiting for us even after three hours delay by our flight. We were taken good care from day one by Silver Spark Africa. We got to know Abongo in person and our drive David, so passionate safari guide, speaking good english. He took us through diverse landscapes on our way to Nakuru and even more diverse roads and guided us to fantastic sites and animals. He knew Maasai Mara park very well. In Lake Nakuru Park, we got to see lion climb a tree. We stayed at Jambo Mara , Lake Nakuru lodge and Aa Amboseli . All these lodges are are clean with good meals. I would highly recommend every one of them. Overall our staying in Kenya with Silver Spark Africa was one of the best time.

Fantastic experience through-out!
We had a wonderful safari experience with Silver Spark!
Communication with the Silver Spark team via email was always easy and swift. We appreciated that their price quote came with a detailed the itinerary, and that they were happy to adjust it based on our needs and wishes (e.g. for the accommodation). Also, online payment of the reservation fee felt simple and secure.
Upon our arrival to the Nairobi airport, we were given a warm welcome and kept company by several from the Silver Spark office team, while waiting for our driver to arrive. What a fun bunch! Just prepare to bring the rest of the payment in cash (USD) - that was the only thing we had not been informed of ahead of our arrival.
We were also hugely pleased with our driver David, who always went the extra mile to ensure that we see as much as possible during our game drives. His 10 years of experience in safari tours showed and was of great value to us.

very good experience, friendly, informal, reliable
Pros
- good communication, all e-mails were answered in a few hours
- flexibility, they organized an unscheduled day in Nairobi for us including visit of former US Embassy destroyed by terrorist blast in 1998, one of the highlights of our trip besides national parks
- we probably got to see as much as we could in such a short time thanks to the great itinerary
- reasonable price for this category of safari trip
- excelent driver and guide David, always in a good mood, helpful, never tired of answering our questions or satisfying our endless need for the best picture spot, wonderful character we will never forget
Cons
- even though they say on the website that they do accept credit cards they do not, after we refused requested cash payment, we finaly agreed on Wise money transfer, cashless procedure which worked out fine but wouldn´t have to be so complicated, only dissapointment in otherwise perfect service and only reason for not giving five stars
