Right Choice is my right choice
We had 11days safari + 3days Zanzibar island + 1day city tour with Right Choice Tours & Safaris this August. Our itinerary around two countries (Kenya and Tanzania) was designed by myself, which was a little complicated, but George, the owner of this company, arranged it very well. Every time, he responded email very quickly, and was always nice and helpful. Unlike some big companies, Right Choice Tours & Safaris is very flexible, they can make personalized itinerary for customers, this is really my favorite, and their quotation is also reasonable.
However, there were still a few small defects. For example, I had made agreement with George, that Jacob would be our guide in Kenya , but actually, it was Kennedy, a guy we didn't like very much. Some times he was lazy, but the most serious problem was he way he talked, it seemed he was not a guide, but a boss, a commander. He was alway easy to be angry and impolite. I think Jacob would be much better. Thanks for Lazarus, our guide in Tanzania, who was really a professional guide and good man, made our safari perfectly ended.
Over all, we enjoyed our holiday in Africa very much, and Right Choice is our right choice. Thanks George.

Paid for the budget safari and I got it
THe difference between a budget safari and a costlier one is in the accommodations, food offered. and transportation method. Low budget offers tents, same meals every day, and hard road time. On the highest end, you fly into the parks and avoid the "african massage" from the potholes in the road. HOwever where you end up going, is exactly the same spot.
I too my 73 year old mother on the budget safari. Joe was our driver and guide. He found all the beautiful creatures that made our safari amazing. My mom took to the African massage allot like everyone else in the tour van, what choice do you have? Our Route to masai mara was okay, not too long, but the second leg to Lake Nakuru was a long drive day. Flamingoes are no longer at Nakuru and migrate someplace else now. Lake Nakuru to Amboseli was a very long day. In retrospect I'd add an extrs day and spend it near Nairobi, then finish the drive to amboseli the next day.
I'm vegan and found enough to be filled. The point of a budget safari is to see the animals, we achieved that, the simple food, tents, colder showers, and bumpy roads are all part of the low cost. I can endure all that, but make sure the drive time each day is acceptable when planning. I blew it in that department.
BTW: everyone says I brought back the most amazing pictures. Over time , you forget the bumpy road time and remember the highlights.

Trip was exactly as quoted and promised
Went on a 10-day safari in Kenya & Tanzania booked with Right Choice Tours & Safaris. George at Right Choice was extremely helpful and informative throughout the quoting and booking stages. He responded by email to all our questions and requests very quickly. Our 2 drivers, Gordon in Kenya and Tday in Tanzania were very friendly and informative about animals/birds/culture, etc. Gordon especially knew the names of all the birds we saw. All lodges/accommodations were excellent/first-class as promised. Very clean and well looked after. Truly making this safari a trip of a lifetime and having many fabulous memories. Would love to repeat this trip.

kilimanjaro, safari in tanzania and zanzibar island
Our trip was incredible and the whole team of Right Choice really made it happen. Communication before our arrival was efficient with George via emails. He always answered quickly to all our questions. From our airport arrival to our final departure, Right Choice was there to pick us up, to get us where we needed to go and then to make us live extraordinary experiences. Their kilimanjaro team was truly helpful, so nice and made us feel better in the most difficult moments of the trek. The safari team was also extremely pleasant,as well as being the best at finding hidden animals everywhere in the various parks. We loved every minute of our trip and felt safe with the team. We recommand this company for the service and the price. WOW.

Wonderful experience!
The itinerary was great because we got to experience different national parks, each unique on its own. Distances are long and roads can be slow to travel, but at the end it was worth it. Accommodations are ok for the budget you're paying. There were some details at our last lodging with our shower but nothing to be very concerned of. The guide was very good, he knew everything about the places we were visiting, we just didn't like when we would make unannounced stops where we weren't told what was going on as everyone is speaking Swahili and we're stuck in the van.

Personal Service from a company that treats you like family. 5 STAR Treatment
When choosing a safari it can be a bit overwhelming. At least that is what I found. There are so many and they all sound good. However, this company Right Choice Tours and Safari is unique as they offer individual assistance in guiding you to choose the right tour and really match up guide and client based on individual needs. We were so pleased with the accommodations, the communication, the service, the quality and attention to detail. Additionally the cost was very competitive to other companies.
My travel blog really best outlines all this in great detail...
If you choose this company you will not regret it. Also, the owner George Oketch and his dedication to your ultimate experience is unmatched.
Thank you for an amazing once in a lifetime trip.

Kenya / Tanzania Tour April 2018
We started off from Tsavo East and West National Parks in Kenya and later on boarder crossed to Tanzania to visit the following parks: Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. Thanks a lot to George and his team for the service and a well organised tour.It was great to see getting quick responses for our e-mails. Also thanks to our tour guides Jackson and Yazid :) They were very helpful to us and showed all the animals (THE BIG FIVE) we wanted to see. We were very satisfied with the tour arrangements, prices and lodges. George organised a farewell dinner for us at Carnivore Restaurant and it was really amazing. The kids loved this tour so much. We will come again in 2020. Once again thank you very much ''Right Choice''.

Thank You George and Right Choice
George did not disappoint the whole trip. All our hotels were fabulous, our drivers were very professional, he was so good with communications, always responded on time. Communicated during our trip to make sure we were okay and all that. His pricing especially with what we needed was also one of the best.
Thank you for helping me show my friend how beautiful my country is.
