7 days luxury safari
It was such a lovely occasion! We went on fantastic game drives with our guide, Bryson, and saw lions, zebras, rhinos, giraffes, and many other creatures. He knew a great deal about every animal we came across. He is also a very skillful and careful driver, making us all feel at ease at all times. Throughout the entire vacation, our chef, Mtumishi, prepared fantastic meals for us, and every dish was flawless. Spending the days with them was enjoyable, and they are both very nice. Every campsite had an amazing view! I would definitely want to go on a safari with this team if I were to go on one again!

9 days tour to Kenya and Tanzania
The tour arranged by Amani exceeded all expectations. From the start, making the experience even more enjoyable. Our guide, Moses, was exceptional, leading us through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, where we saw everything from a pride of lions with their cubs to majestic black rhinos and even hyenas passing by as we dined!The accommodations were superb, with one unforgettable night tented camps in the midst of cape buffalo and other wildlife. If only we could have enjoyed more of the delicious meals prepared by the lodges. This safari is an absolute must for anyone visiting Tanzania!

I look forward to travelling with this company again in the future.
The safari in Amboseli National Park, Lake naivasha, and masai mara Game Reserve was an unforgettable experience. Ben, the guide from Kipok Africa Adventures, allowed us to see almost every wildlife. His expertise and keen observational powers made our experience special. Under his leadership, we not only saw wildlife but also learned a lot about their behaviour and habits. I look forward to travelling with this company again in the future.

$10.000 DOWN THE DRAIN
Scammed by Kipok! Made us pay a massive amount online for the national parks, cancelled our booking and used our money for other bookings. Nothing arranged in Tanzania. No hotel, no car, no guide,nothing. Kenya was done via subcontractor which we paid for again as Kipok did not pay them. Stay away from this company!!!

I recommend you stay away... 4k USD wasted
Amani is a professional con artist in my opinion. He first spoke to me last year Sept through safari bookings and I decided after my quote was received not to go to Serengeti that year fast forward a year later he contacts me out of the blue on WhatsApp to offer me a tour. I agreed after much back and forth. But alarm bells should have rung when he contacted me out of the blue. He lied by sending me provisional bookings which looked genuine but u could of course cancel and once he received my money he stopped communicating much and didn’t deliver anything as promised. This guy knows exactly what he is doing. Just stay away from this cowboy company. I am so shocked Tanzania tourist board and the Arusha police still allow this guy to trade and how he is not behind bars is beyond me. I feel sorry for all of us who got conned.

Kilimanjaro climb
We climbed the Kilimanjaro with a group of 4 people. Everything has been amazing. Emmanuel was our guide and he and his team have done everything for us to spend a great time! It has been an amazing experience.
Thanks again to Emmanuel and his team!

Friendly professional and organised worth every minute of safariing !
Operator Amani, our driver Juma and the cook Peter were ready from the very beginning to make us feel relaxed safe and excited. They gave us from before, every information we needed and they really sticked to the program ( even though things could be flexible if we asked them too). We chose the 5 days safari so we could see as much as possible and so we did. Our driver Juma (happily whistling swahili songs) spotted the animals easily and patiently was waiting to catch the action. We saw the "big five" as expected, many times! Due to our low budget two nights we spend camping outside in amazing campsites with super warm tents and sleeping bags. The other two were in beautiful simple two bed lodges with amazing view and friendly happy stuff ( like most of Tanzanian people!) They provided us three rich meals per day and lots of water. We were treated like friends and not clients and this is why i totally recommend this to people who want to feel adventurous but spoiled at the same time.

Very kind and professional
It was a an amazing time! The tour driver was very nice and knowledgeable. We saw so many animals and he was always willing to wait for all participants to take as many pictures as they wanted.
The tour is long but worth it!

Good tour at reasonable price
Overall we were pleased with our tour of Ngorongoro crater. Our driver/guide arrived as scheduled and he spoke good English. He adapted as needed based upon the weather (visiting the overview at the end since fog covered in the morning), and worked with other guides to find various animals. We saw plenty of animals including rhinos which we had failed to see on the other two safaris we had done. He also stopped at two gift shop areas on the way back to Arusha which was a bonus.
We only have two complaints. First, we had been told that we could pay be credit card but during our meeting the day before the tour, they were asking for a portion of it to be in cash. We were unprepared since they had told us credit card when we had booked weeks in advance and then also asking again the day before. If they had simply told us they wanted it to be cash, we could have been better prepared for it. In the end, we gave less cash than they wanted and they let us pay the rest of it by credit. Secondly, the lunch had mixed reviews by our family. It was a lunch box and overall it was pretty good, but a few of the foiled cheese wedges were all moldy when opened. We had stopped to get the lunches on our way out from somebody so I don't think the lunches are made by them, but they may want to consider a better supplier.
