Best safari experience by far!
My friend and I booked a 10 day budget safari (Kenya and Tanzania) through Absolute Holiday Safaris. We loved every moment of it! Best value for money. Excellent customer service and we had the best tour guides both on the Kenyan (Zack) and Tanzanian side! Our trip was well executed, they delivered everything that was promised in the itenary. We were able to communicate with the office and ask questions before we even left South Africa to get to Nairobi. We were picked up and dropped at the airport at the beginning and end of our tour. Would definitely recommend this service provider! They are excellent!

Once in a lifetime experience! Thank you Absolute Holiday Safaris
We are so very grateful to Absolute Holiday Safaris. They blessed us with one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. We booked everything online and were a little nervous about what we were getting. But everything was as good as we could have hoped. Their driver picked us up at the airport right on time and got us to our hotel. On the day our safari departed our driver, Stanley, was there early and was willing to help us track down a couple of things before we left Nairobi. Our drive with Stanly was great and he was incredibly personable. He took us into 2 game parks and always knew where to go to see the animals. He worked hard so that we could see all the animals that were available. If we are ever blessed with the opportunity to return we will work with Absolute Holiday Safaris again in a heartbeat!! Thank you for the incredible job. We recommend them to anyone who is interested!

A buget safari with all details coverd
I went to Masai Mara-Nakru-Amboseli 6 days safari in Sep-16 ....3rd week
Highlights:
1. A worth visiting place & safari...a must see place
2.. Absolute Holiday Safaris is a reliable company and the Manager David was polite and good to us.
3. Driver cum Guide Stanley was extremely good. Initially he looked to be little different but he made the trip enjoyable
4. Stanley took us every where ... even near to the animals when other vans did not dare to do it.
5 . When I lost my video camera in Lake Nakuru and traveled 15 km with out knowing it , Stanley took every effort , called some one there and got back my camera safely.....Weldone....Thanx Mr. Stanley. God Bless you.
7. We enjoyed every hour of the day ....especially Amboseli,,,, but could not see Mount Kilimanjaro due to misty condition.
8. Over all the safari was well organised.
Negative points:
1. The tented accommodation was not up to the expectations.
2. Always the food was bread, jam/butter/ Watermelon /some rice/etc .
But I really enjoyed the safari .

Perfect organisation of safari tour
We took 5 days safari - Masai Mara, Naivasha and Nakuru. This company offered the best price with the same conditions as others offered, and they made everything perfect. We had long negotiations in advance and they agreed to put in contract some extra conditions. All staff was very helpful and did even more for us than just safari (e.g. helped to buy train tickets). We highly recommend them for your safari tour - very reliable and professional company

Budget Safari a must do!
We took a 10 day budget safari in Kenya and Tanzania. We had a seamless experience with all our transportation, hotels and campsites, and food. Our guides were awesome and we saw more animals than we could have imagined. Camping in the Serengeti was amazing. You could hear hyenas and lions nearby and there were more stars than I have ever seen. At the end of the trip we had an extra day in Nairobi. David from Absolute Safaris set us up with a driver and activities including the elephant sanctuary and giraffe center which we loved. Great experience though if you are looking for luxury the budget trip is not for you. Would definitely recommend this company!

budget safari
We had combined safari Kenya-Tanzania. Everything was great at Kenya site, super driver/guide Stanley (I really recommend this guy!), accommodation, organisation - 100% satisfaction.
Tanzania - 100% disaster. Company which organised our safari - Arusha Center Inn Tourist total mess; the director Abraham - liar, conditions at camps horrible; we had paid for tents with beds and bedding - we got used sleeping bag and no beds; sanitation at the bathroom/shower - 100% bio-hazard, awful; driver/guide Freddie - avoid him, very slow not at all organised and with small knowledge about nature and animals - waste of time and money! Avoid this company!!!!!
So I really recommend safari in Kenya but I cannot recommend Tanzania - it was horrible 4 days.

Trip to the Mara
The rough roads makes reaching mara such a taxing and burdensome exercise. Please lobby the national and county government to tarmac the same
