Fluent communication, high cost performance, beyond expectations
We have finished our tour in Tanzania during 08/31/2024-09/08/2024. Definitely amazing experience!
*Communication: 10, smoothly. We firstly built the draft plan and sent to several companies, Super Africa Wildlife gave us the best quote for the first version and answered all questions we asked(20+). The manager even has Wechat to communicate, which saved so much time. We can feel the honesty and patience of the company.
*Service: 9, excellent. The whole service followed the plan in quote. Our guide Andrea are experienced with driving and guiding, especially he can find many animals accurately and predict the next step of the animal, then choose a better place for photo. He can even speak Chinese to introduce the Chinese name of many animals. A small point which can be optimized is that about hotel booking, we booked the company very late then some tents were booked up, then changed to another hotel/tent, the quality was still perfect, while the address of hotel is not that fit for our plan. But we were lucky enough and saw wildbeasts crossing Mara river at very beginning without waiting, so the pertential waste of time eliminated. For the shopping, we went 4 points while the best was on the last. We think maybe next time we can directly go to the last big shop for shopping and not stopped before.
*Value of money: 9, excellent. We compared many quotes and discussed the price with the company, the price is not very high, we think it's worthy. We transferred all the money before travelling and get 2% more discount and didn't face any problems.
*Reliability: 10, perfect. All followed the plan, no accident, anything can be arranged very well.
*The tour: 10, perfect. My dream came true.
I will definitely highly recommand the company to my friends and colleagues.

Almost everything we planed realized
It was a great experience to go with Super Africa Wildlife, the price is competitive, our contract is well delivered . Our Guide/Driver Bensil is a really responsible and experienced guide, he knows exactly where to spot which animal, thanks to his experience and our luck, we only waited by the Mara River around 1hour and saw the zebras and wildbeests crossing the river, it was spectacular!! Not only that, he also knows where the clean toilets are on the road, that's a big plus to us!!
The whole trip went pretty smooth, we had a very good time in Kenya!

Choose Super Africa Wildlife and Adventure Safaris with caution.
1、【Excessive Charges from the Guide】
Masai Mara was the highlight of our trip, and we relied heavily on the guide’s ability to find animals. The day before heading to Masai Mara, we promised the guide: "If you can show us carnivores in Masai Mara, we will pay a tip of 10,000 Kenyan Shillings each day." We believed this was a fair amount for a tip. However, when we hiked for 15 minutes to the Mara River, which was supposed to be a complimentary activity, the guide and a ranger forcibly charged us a $40 entrance fee. To make matters worse, our teammates happened to see the guide and the ranger laughing and splitting money at the back of the vehicle.
2、【Deliberately Preventing Us from Seeing Animals】
After experiencing this unjust charge, we reported the issue to the guide's boss. The guide became very unhappy the entire afternoon. To retaliate, he turned off the radio used for locating animals, and we crawled along slow dirt roads all afternoon, seeing only a few antelope and no other wildlife. By the next morning, during our safari, he didn’t even open the roof of the vehicle, clearly indicating he wanted us to see no animals at all. The entrance fee to Masai Mara is $200 per day; for four people, that’s a total of $800 wasted. We flew for over ten hours to see animals in Masai Mara, only to have our experience ruined by the SAWAS travel agency.
3、【Late Departures and Early Returns】
The guide did not follow the schedule we provided. After agreeing to leave at 6 AM, he always postponed departure to 7 AM. The worst instance was in Nakuru, where we only had a total of three hours on safari that day.
4、【Inability of the SAWAS Owner to Manage His Guides】
I reported the above issues to the agency owner, but he was completely unable to manage the situation and even passed responsibility onto others.
Trips are well plan and guide respond fast when situation changes. The overall experience is good a

Experienced tour operator
I had a fantastic time traveling around serengeti national park with shuma . I initially chose the company for 2 reasons. First of all martin provided me with much better advise and explanations on where to go and the best time to visit such places than the other companies i reached out to.and second they were their prices were cheaper for the same package offered by other campanies . Infact some of their packages were much better than other companies but still charged less.
Shuma was a great guide and travel companion throughout the journey and was extremely knowledgeable about the wild animals. He was concerned on making the trip a good experience and took great care to preserve the nature in the places we visited.
His communication and interaction with other guides made the whole process easier as we could easily tell where certain animals are.
The accommodations at tuonane serengeti camp was amazing . I loved their meals and the view and would highly recommend this place . Generally i had a wonderful experience and would recommend team SAWAS to anyone wishing to travel to serengeti.

We went on safari with the SAWAS team in December 2022 and it was absolutely amazing experience! We visited Tsavo East, Tsavo West national parks and Taita Hills private reserve with our amazing driver Shuma and had close encounter with elephants, lions, cheetahs, water buffalos... you name it! Everything was very well organized.Mr Martin the manager, created maximally personalised tour that included all our requests and it was cheaper than other offers we received. He was very pleasant to deal with and very responsive to all our requests, wether it's to change the itinerary Shuma the driver, was very knowledgeable and professional, besides being just a nice guy to be around . during our ride in the tsavo park we had quite a hair raising experience when two lions simply bored climbed into our van and right up onto the roof of the van where they stayed for a good 30 minutes one of them came so close to as that I could feel its hot breath,Mr Shuma was a reassuring presence as he was so calm,eventuàlly the lions wondered of...we lodged in the tsavo west park resort and wow,I have no bad comment about them,from the food to the services provided I loved all of it,congrats to the SAWAS team for making this a lovely experience

Awesome experience with SAWAS Team
The trip had taken the shortest route so it was actually easy, efficient and good value for money that we were going to pay for. Good it was, we spent a night at explore nature Mara getting ready for the best game drive in the morning. We had a promising guide mr shuma and exactly by six that was in the mornig we had set off for the game drive. Our guide was such amazing and so profession, he knew what to do and so even during game drive we were able to spot animals walking along …..Some we came close to such that we could take some photos to keep the evidence of this amazing journey and trip to Africa. We stop in the park watching the Hyena scavenging on the already dead buffalo that had been killed by the lion before the day. The hawks were all over waiting just for their moment to land on the remaining flesh..… The drive was amazing never did we have a breakdown at any point. This trip was generally planned and so on everything it is was worth paying for.
My gratitude goes to mr martin and mr shuma for the excellent safari highly recommend.
He was the best tour operator
We had an excellent time with team SAWAS. It was one of our best trip in recent times. This was our first trip with Super Africa Wildlife and Adventure Safaris and we were all impressed and very happy with the way it was organized. I would like to specially thank Mr Martin the manager for organizing this trip for us very efficiently. Everything was upto standard and we were actually impressed with they way they carry themselves and treat their customers. You were excellent in communication and sorting out our holiday. All details were taken care of. The driver and tour guide Mr benson was very good, kind and professional. The vehicle was nice, warm and comfortable. Hotels were amazing which we received 5 star treatment from staff. They were quick in response to our needs. The game drives were the best part of our safari where we had one on one encounter with the wild animals of the savannah. We had so much fun. Thank you team SAWAS we are looking forward to our next safari with your company. Highly recommend.

Profesional and trustworthy
Our trip was a wonderful experience and a large element of that was owing to the arrangements made by Super Africa Wildlife and Adventure Safaris.The logistics went like clockwork, we were met on time by the manager Mr martin, the drivers and guides on every occasion and we appreciate the welcoming bowl of fruits in our hotel rooms. We have already refered the company to our friends and family for they could not find better hosts. We were so impressed by the overall attitude of Kenyans towards the country and their visitors. We have travelled widely but rarely been anywhere where with an obvious pride of their physical environment. The game drives were on point for we got to have a one on one view with the great savannah wild animals like giraffes, zebras, Buffalo and not to mention the king and queen of the jungle . The guide was excellent, a fount of knowledge and in addition relaxed approachable and easy to converse with . We actually ended up learning alot which was a big bonus to trip. I would prefer this tour company any time, they have intriguing and affordable trip packages, and I have to say that our experience was worth each and every penny spent.
