Best Safari Ever!!
We had been thinking about a safari for several years. This year we decided it would be a great way to celebrate our anniversary. We researched several companies and settled on Expedition Kenya Safari. I am so glad we did! From the initial inquiries through the completion of our trip, Patrick, affectionately known as “Free Range”, was professional, responsive and thorough paying attention to the smallest of details. He made sure each lodge we stayed in had some recognition of our anniversary. He even arranged for an anniversary cake to be presented to us on our last evening. This made the trip all the more special. Our driver Joseph, also known as “Eagle-Eye”, was very knowledgeable about all types of plants, birds and animals. He made it his personal mission to make sure we saw as many different species as possible. And he knew just where to look. We actually saw all of the “Big Five” in the first two days! If he ever got tired of hearing “Stop, please” whenever we wanted to get the perfect shot, Eagle-Eye never showed it. Joseph was able to identify everything we spotted. Impressive! If you plan on taking a safari, don’t hesitate to book with Patrick at Expedition Kenya Safari. You can’t go wrong and you won’t be sorry. Thanks Patrick and Joseph for the experience of a lifetime!

Kenya's Jewel of Masai Mara
A very scenic park with enormous wildlife populations worth viewing. The Wildebeest migration is indeed a magical thing to see. I was amazed at the wildlife numbers and the Mara River crossing the highlight. Overall, a must see before one's death. I was glad we had a good safari company arranging the tour for us, worth the mention - African Sermon Safaris.

Elephants!
We'd done a big trip to Tanzania with you 5 years ago. This one to new corners of Ruaha and Selous was just as good!
Your recommendation on the order of the camps was spot on. Trips to Tanzania (especially if you include Beho Beho) are not cheap, but well worth it. The logistics worked well, with Kearsley and Coastal doing there bit. We've rarely been back to the same camp twice but we did it with Mwagusi - and it remains our favourite of the 3 we visited this time. , We are greateful for this experience !

Worth getting up early!
Thoroughly enjoyed our Safari with Sebu. Well worth getting up early to see these amazing animals in their natural habitat. Our pictures are superb but the memory of this adventure far surpasses any picture you can take. Lunch at the lodge was a nice add!

If you are looking for a reasonably priced safari, Gatatu is definitely the company for you!!
We searched for the best deals on the web. Gatatu offered a very competitive price and will make sure you get the most for your money. It was the only company that offered them in our price range.
All accommodation was clean, good food, friendly staff.
The owner, Richard, was such a pleasure to work with and really he helped us personalize our trip.
The communication with him was phenomenal. Working with Gatatu was very professional.
Richard has a degree in social work and he started a school to help children.
He uses a portion of the profits from his company to help fund the school and support the children. So, you can feel really good about supporting this tour company. This is also why I believe you will find the best prices here.
Great Canoe Trekking Experience and amazing one day excursion on Lake Bunyonyi.
Our guide, Fred, grew up around that area and was very knowledgeable of the history and culture of the lake area and of Uganda as well.
If you are looking for a reasonably priced safari, Gatatu is definitely the company for you.

Trip of a lifetime
We just returned from our trip to South Africa and couldn't be more pleased. Tammy booked everything exactly as we wanted. She worked very hard to accommodate the fact that we needed triple lodging as our daughter was traveling with us. We stayed in Cape Town, Simbavati River Lodge in Timbavati, and Notten's Bush Lodge in Sabi Sands. The safaris were incredible. We saw the Big 5 and much more. Tammy recommend staying in two different areas and it was a great idea. We weren't able to see all the animals in one area but completed our list at the second. It also gave us a chance to experience different surroundings. I would not hesitate to book another trip with Pembury Tours. Their attention to detail made for the best trip ever.

Great experience with Adventour
Professionalism, competence and reliability combine with kindness, cozy atmosphere and sensitivity to the needs of the guests.
Respect for people and nature is Adventour’s engine and enthusiasm is the fuel.
Adventour has also the uncanny ability to make their guests discover and enjoy little things just as much as the big and the important ones.
Definitely highly recommended.

Exceptional
My husband and I spent six days on safari in Tanzania covering Tarangire & Serengeti national parks plus Ngorongoro Crater, each lodge we stayed at was superb and very different from each other. Our safari guide Harry was a lovely man and certainly knew his job. We then moved on to Fundu Lagoon which is a very remote hideaway off Pemba Island near Zanzibar. This was the fourth trip that both Sharon & Simon have arranged for us over the past few years,their knowledge and service is over and above other safari companies we have used before. Their communications and attention to detail with suggested itinerary's are absolutely brilliant they never fail to amaze me. Using Native Escapes is a no brainier for me they delivery time and time again. Well done to you both.

Mount Kenia - Lenana (Alt.4985m)
The 4 day hike through the national park of Mt. Kenia where challenging, breathtaking and awesome. It united those who climbed the mountain. I sufferd from the altitude sickness, without the good guidance I would never been able to reach Lenana that day.
The hike is still my most favorite trip of Africa.
