We had an amazing time. We learned so much from our guide. We made long days, but the excitement was likewise. We had fun and learned a lot about his life, animals and nature. I will forever be grateful for him and wish him all the best. Lawerence, we miss you!

Great Safari Experience
The experience was incredible. from the beginning till the end! We only stayed 4 days but were enough to see plenty of animals and of course we were lucky to see the BIG 5!
Easy Travel was very helpful since we contacted them to get the prices, they replied very quickly and they answered any doubt we had regarding our travel. When we arrived they came to our hotel to meet us and explain to us every single detail of our itinerary, which was very helpful and we really appreciate it.
Doto was our guide and I really cant imagine a Best one, he was very helpful and explained us plenty of things about the animals and also about Tanzania and its culture, he spoke Spanish, French and English perfectly which was great for us, because I am spanish and my husband is french :)
I will choose them again with no doubt !!

Unforgettable African Safari Experience
My first African experience was beyond my expectation. Thanks to Kenya Budget Safari for the superb service. Our guide, Mousa/Moses was an expert, always on time and knows how to deal with his guests. Thanks for making my safari adventure an unforgettable one. Kudos, Esther!

Very unprofessional tour
Out safari guide showed up at our hotel with no paperwork or verification who he was. No uniform, no ID. He had to call Kanuth to verify. The vehicle was not in great shape and it appeared his license plates were expired. When ever we stopped at a checkpoint, he took about an hour in each office. All the other drivers showed their paperwork and they were off in 5 minutes. Our vehicle had a dead battery and no Air conditioning. Driver had to get a push start or start on a hill to get going. Very dusty ride. The guide was knowledable about the area and animals though. The guide and the cook did not seem to work well together,, just seemed to be business arrangement.

An Amazing, Unforgettable Experience
We just returned from an awe-inspiring private six person photography safari throughout Kenya with Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels. Muli Muema, the owner/operator, helped us craft an amazing itinerary of National Park highlights with nights at some of the best lodges in the country.
I was initially hesitant to book with them because the price came in considerably lower than what other companies had quoted us; to the point that it seemed suspicious. But they are KATO bonded, which was very reassuring. And Muli more than earned our trust. He was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process, despite the ten hour time difference; from our initial exploratory emails, through our booking and up to the day of our departure. He let us completely customize our itinerary (we wanted more time at Masai Mara) and add last-minute excursions like a boat ride on Lake Naivasha and personal adventures like trips to Karen Blixen Museum and the elephant orphanage. He took care of everything on our behalf. He booked our additional lodging in Nairobi the night we arrived. He made reservations for our dinner before we returned home. He even dropped us off at the airport, helped us unload our luggage and explained the unique Nairobi airport security system. It was like visiting a city where your friend lives. He is extremely responsible, trustworthy and courteous. I cannot recommend Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels highly enough.
Upon arrival in Nairobi, we found that the airline left our bags behind when we changed planes in London. With our group embarking on our safari the next morning, Muli stayed on top of everything in Nairobi. He ensured that our trip could continue on schedule without any added stress. He arranged for our driver to take us shopping for replacement supplies and ensured that our bags were delivered to us by bush plane at a remote airstrip in Amboseli National Park. It was an amazing effort. Muli truly went above and beyond. He is a top-notch, responsible professional and Africa Celebrity Tours is first-rate organization (which is not something I would say about British Airways).
Our amazing and friendly driver Joseph was incredibly skilled at everything from navigating the white knuckle Nairobi traffic to the muddy roads in the Masai Mara. He is more knowledgable about wildlife than many naturalists I have encountered at American parks. He explained intricate animal behavior, recognized bird calls, and spotted naturally camouflaged big cats while safely driving us through the parks. Joseph knew the exact times and places to be for animal viewing and put us in better positions for photography and video than any of the other vehicles we encountered in the parks. We saw "The Big Five."
All in all, it was a wonderful, unforgettable adventure. I already have friends who have seen our photos of some of the jaw-dropping sights of Kenya and want to do similar journeys of their own. I haven't hesitated to recommend Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels.
Asante sana.

AA Africa provided my group an amazing safari seeing incredible wildlife with cultural experiences.
Earlier this month I took a photographic safari group to Tanzania. While taking another group some years ago I met Augustine Minja at one of our safari camps. I ran into him in 2015 at one of the safari camps and learned he has his own company, Augustine's Adventure Africa (AA Africa). I was impressed with Augustine and said I would consider using him in the future. I didn't take a group in 2016 but did check out reviews of AA Africa. Late in 2016 I contacted Augustine about a group safari in June of this year.
He presented me with an itinerary that I knew was excellent--I had 10 previous safaris to Tanzania--and at a very attractive price. Based on my review review searches, and our conversations and how he answered all my questions, I decided to use his services. The safari was amazing in terms of wildlife seen and the accommodations that Augustine had arranged. However, what was as equally outstanding was the service Augustine provided my group. He is extremely knowledgeable about wildlife, habitats, and local history and culture. The itinerary not only focused on wildlife but also exposed the group to life in Tanzania with visits to a school, medical clinic, village markets, and a Maasai village.
Behind the scenes he kept in touch with lodges to make sure there would be no surprises down the road. He attended promptly to any issues raised by my group--there were few-- and paid attention to the smallest detail.
I am already planning another group with AA Africa next year and would whole heartedly recommend AA Africa contemplating s safari to Tanzania whether it be a group, family or couple.
