Four unforgettable days on Safari
We had a four day mid range lodge Safari to Tarangiri, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
The booking with Humphrey was uncomplicated, we could always ask on WhatsApp or mail if we had any questions. Make sure to ask in advance how to pay the Safari!
Our driver Godwin was very reliable and due to his long experience, we always felt in good hands. He knew some really good spots off the main routes!
The lodges we had were also very good, the food was delicious and the staff attentive.

Prince knew a lot about Johannesburg. And it was a pleasure to listen to him
He was nice and sometimes verry funny. We enjoyed the day with him.

Professional and aware of the market with capacity to gauge client needs.
As a family of five (5) returning to Kenya after four years, we traveled on a Safari and took a coastal vacation through Leisure Tips Ltd. Leisure Tips was meticulous in choosing the right lodges with Maasai Mara (Keekorok Lodge and Tipilikwani Camp) we really enjoyed the hospitality of these two lodges, we had to stay in two lodges as August is a highly touristic period in Kenya and we were late birds in our booking. We belive Leisure tips has the right network when it comes to holiday homes. However, the driver of our Safari Van seemed to us a bit non adventurers and did not enable us the complete adventure that we were hoping to have such as of the Great Migration in the Maasai Mara and for which around our travel dates were planned , this was a down side. After days filled with exploration in the Maasai Mara, we made our way to the picturesque coast of Kenya, Galu Beach and here Leisure Tips selected one of the finest beach holiday rental that you could find in the area for some well-deserved relaxation this choice of holiday home (Lantana Galu) exceeded all expectations, providing a luxurious yet homely retreat nestled along the pristine shores of the Indian Ocean. The serene ambiance and warm hospitality instantly put us at ease, allowing us to unwind and recharge amidst breathtaking ocean views and gentle sea breezes, Lantana Galu and its surroundings is an amazing spot for snorkeling, boat rides, water spots and immersion to Swahili culture. Leisure tips, specifically Martin also arranged for our local transfers by SGR, Taxi and Air and this was flawless. We higly recommend Leisure Tips for your next vacation trips in Kenya, Martin will book you in some of the finest holiday rentals.

This wonderful group of people are extremely professional, efficient and beyond expectations.
This was my first safari and I was going to book with a company but at the last moment Beast Spoors popped up and after looking at the website and information, I booked with them. I am very glad I did.
They sent a driver to pick me up from my place where I was staying a ways out of the city centre, and the driver was friendly and a very safe driver. We arrived in town, and another driver took myself and a fellow client to the office where we went up, being escorted by Vincent. When I walked into the office, it was very clean and had a beautiful scented candle burning. This is just one of the small touches that made them stand out. Vincent sat us down and explained the itineraries for each of us. We were on different tours. He was very thorough and friendly.
Linda, and Sandy and Kelvin arrived and we all sat and talked about the safari and they answered any questions we had. They were all very friendly, easy going and fun. Then we took a few photos and left for the Land Rovers in town. Kelvin immediately took my heavy backpack which I thought was kind of him! I was feeling very happy and excited about the safari!
One thing that I am not sure people know is that the agency with whom you book are separate from the actual tour company. They all work together to get people where they need to be when they need to be there, and so sometimes you switch Land Rovers to get to your proper place. It's absolutely very organized and works out very smoothly as I had seen not only with myself, but others too. Their inter- communication is seamless and they take great care of you.
But there are things that Beast Spoor does that the other people didn't get. We got a free tee shirt right away. Very fun! But the best thing they did was to check up on me! I didn't see the first email as I don't go on line too much but then there was a WhatsApp message to make sure I was doing ok. WOW! They cared about what was happening with the trip! Very wonderful. None of the other people I was with were checked on. That to me is excellent customer service. Especially when in reality, they have been paid and only have to get me back home. But they wanted to make sure that all was going well.
As far as the safari itself... absolutely incredible. There aren't really enough great words to describe what it was like to see the animals, the beautiful land and experience Masai Mara! The guides, the camp hosts and everyone involved were fabulous. The first driver Antony was amazingly skilled at navigating the roads and spotting animals! And Jimmy the second driver was also so skilled and knowledgeable about the animals. Both were very enjoyable, friendly and very skilled.
I liked the food at our camp and we sat at the fire the first night under the beautiful stars. The places we stopped for lunch were delicious and the people weren't pushy with wanting us to buy things. The subsequent hotels and spas we stayed at were great, with very friendly staff and I even had a super duper massage, for a very reasonable price! Not bad for a budget safari. :)
I was going to book 4 days, but went for 5. I would recommend this as 4 days goes by too fast, and Hell's Gate and bike riding was definitely a highlight! Being so close to the animals on a bike was just something else! I was picked up in Nairobi by their driver named Duke to take me back to my place and was able to visit with Linda for a bit before returning. Having spent my life in the Hospitality Industry, I can very honestly say that this young group of folks are doing it right! I wondered why there weren't too many reviews, but it's because they are relatively new at this. With literally thousands of booking agents for safaris, I would absolutely and highly recommend these professional and caring people! Thank you for an experience of a lifetime that was more than worth the price and value beyond what I imagined. I know this company will shine above the rest and wish them all the best! Thank you so very much!

Would love to come back and do that again!
Wow, what an adventure! My friends and I tackled Mount Kilimanjaro via the Western Breach route with Tanzania Horizon Safaris, and let me tell you, it was exhausting but totally worth it! Our guide, John, was like our guardian angel, making sure we were safe and motivated every step of the way. We shared many stories and even played cards together. The horse race was the funniest. Thanks to him, we made it to the summit feeling like champions!
After conquering the mountain, we embarked on a 5-day safari, and that's when things got even wilder – literally! Our safari guide, Gobless, was a true king of the wild. He had this amazing knack for spotting even the tiniest traces of wildlife on the red soil of the savannah. We saw lions, elephants, and giraffes up close – it was like living in a nature documentary!
But none of this would have been possible without the incredible planning and execution by Elizabeth and Neema from Tanzania Horizon Safaris. They thought of everything, from the logistics of the climb to the details of the safari. Thanks to them, our vacation was absolutely perfect!
If you're looking for an adventure of a lifetime with a team that truly cares about your experience, look no further than Tanzania Horizon Safaris. Climbing Kilimanjaro and going on safari with them was the best decision my friends and I ever made.

Fantastic Guide
I had the pleasure of traveling in Uganda/Rwanda in October of 2023. Jaz was my guide and I couldn’t have asked for a more caring, considerate, well informed guide than he was. We visited many places, villages and points of interest. The highlight of my trip was the gorilla trek in Uganda. It was exhausting but so much fun, well organized, and great people involved in this project. I would highly recommend Jaz for your African Safari travels.

An honest experience with a more than professional guide.
First of all, I had not booked a safari before my arrival in Kenya. I was trying to find a service that was honest and not too expensive. Denis was my first contact with Baboon safari, I met a member of staff the next day and clarified my fears following the other reviews. He reassured me and told me that if I did not participate in 2 safaris, I would be reimbursed for the one not done. The one who deserves the honors is our guide Anthony who was exceptional, if you want customer service...it's him. He did everything he could to find out where the animals were and give us the best view. he was friends with all the other guides while respecting his customers. The Miti-mingi campsite was also perfect, the owner came at each meal to inquire about our satisfaction. A great experience which was very pleasant and which will be repeated, thank you Baboon!!!!
