Another unforgettable safari experience...
Following our safari holiday in Botswana which we so much enjoyed last year thanks to Roho Ya Chui, we booked again for this August another safari holiday, this time in South Africa. Just as the last time, Ute’s responses to my inquiries were very quick and helpful, trying to make sure that we would be getting exactly the kind of safari we wished to have.
We initially intended to stay 4 days in Sabi Sand and 4 days in Phinda, but Ute suggested (partly because the lodge in Sabi Sand was getting full) that we spend more days in Phinda, mentioning that the latter was extraordinary in terms of wildlife and landscape. And we were absolutely happy that we did so. Not that Sabi Sand was less interesting than Phinda (we had beautiful long leopard sightings almost on our every drive in Sabi Sand), but Phinda was just marvelous. We enjoyed to our heart’s content seeing, among others, lions, cheetahs, white and black rhinos there.
And the lodges and their services and the confort were amazing, too. (All the 3 lodges were from « & Beyond »). As to the rangers and trackers, they were all unbelievably experienced and profossional. All of them were lively, pleasant and caring, and talking with them about wildlife was a gift of the holiday as fulfulling as the animals themselves.
Africa is immense. There are a lot of other places we would like to visit for safari. We would certainly come back to Roho Ya Chui for our next safari holiday.

A third great experience with Gametrackers K
Great 10-days off-the-beaten-track safari from Nairobi to North Kenya and back.
Fantastic game drives at Samburu, incredible experiences among remote tribes such as the Gabbra, El Molo and Turkana people.
Once again, Daniel and Charles (driver and cook) did all their best (which is much) for our comfort, security and enjoyment of the trip.
Highly recommendable company for any kind of safari in Kenya.
We intend to come back for a 4th safari with Gametrackers K, probably to Tsavo.

Unique Personalised Day Tour
What an amazing experience!!.
I was lucky enough to have some free time during my trip to Tanzania and made contact with Emmanuel from Zuri Tours about options around Moshi and Arusha. Originally I was hoping to get on a Horse Riding Safari but this was unavailable for the day I was free. Speaking with Emmanuel, he took it upon himself to put together an itinerary for a full day experience.
Personally picked up from my hotel, we drove to Arusha and along the way learnt about tribal customs, traditions and discussed the local area. We visited the Arusha Masai Market for souvenirs then onto the Cultural Centre for lunch and time to explore the centre which is full of local art and artifacts.
After lunch went to visit the Snake Park and also experience Camel riding around a local village. The comparisons between African and colonial architecture and lifestyle was made evident when we visited the Rugby Club for a very relax afternoon beverage and an opportunity to reflect back on the excellent day.
Emmanuel was such a gracious host and was always happy to answer questions and share information about Tanzania and the African way of life. Highly recommended if you are wanting a more personalised and flexible tour option away from the large groups and operators. Thank you again for a great experience.

Cannot recommend highly enough - great price for budget safari!
We booked a 2D/1N budget camping safari of Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater - the price we were given was fantastic and much cheaper than we had seen elsewhere. Richard (the manager) responded quickly to all our queries, and was great to deal with prior to the trip.
The safari itself was brilliant - we had a spacious, comfortable jeep, knowledgeable guide (Felix) and great cook who cooked us delicious dinner and breakfast and huge lunchboxes. We definitely did not go hungry! The parks are beautiful and you will see lots of wildlife whoever you go with - but I would highly recommend World Tours Tanzania for their professional and friendly service. We particularly loved the T-shirts we were given, and a bottle of 18% wine to enjoy at the campsite :)
Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

A perfectly organized trip by Tailor Made Safaris!
We just got back from an unforgettable holiday full of beautiful nature and culture in St. Lucia and Cape Town. South Africa. The St. Lucia part of our trip was perfectly organized by Tailor Made Safaris, purely filled with highlights. One of them was the game drive in Hluhluwe-Imfolozi. After many hours of spotting animals in the extremely comfortable safari bus and a delicious 'braai' we still could not get enough of it, thanks to the great knowledge and enthusiasm of our guide. During our stay the service of Tailor Made Safaris was excellent from start to finish (communication, accommodation, game-drives and tours). Next time we definitely will let them organize our trip again.

A fantastic trip to Northern Tanzania
Mo and his team at Mega Adventures were really accommodating. Having travelled though East Africa a lot with work over the past few years, it was a pleasure to be introduced to this company. I travelled through the Northern Highlands with the team and all I can say is, great food, great guide, great experience. Would recommend Mega Adventures to friends and family in the future. Very well organised, nothing was too much trouble. The team looked after me and my friends the whole time and we left relaxed and happy. Brilliant value for money too for such a high quality experience. Cheers guys!

Fantastic safari trip, Big five, River Crossing... Thank you Anthony for bringing us all pearls
My wife and I had 8 days safari trip in Kenya. We had an unforgettable experience in Samburu, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha
Thanks Otieno (owner of KWSS) for effective back and forth emails before our trip and gave us ideas and suggestion on tailoring our program. The accommodation selection is just terrific. Lodge in Samburu is located by the riverside. The sunrise is so romantic, and the staff service and foods there is outstanding. Cottage in Masai Mara AA Lodge is another kind of experience, the galaxy at night is awesome when the sky is clear. We spent our last night by the lake at Camp Carnelleys, it was just so relaxing. And the foods served by the Bar are awesome.
It was great to have Anthony Kioko being our professional driver and also the guide. His driving skill, wildlife knowledge, sharp vision and accurate estimations made our every game drive full of fun and surprises.
We are so lucky to see the Big Five in Samburu and also the other Big Five again in Masai Mara. The highlight is the river crossing at the Mara River. Although the group is not that big, just around 3-400 of wildebeests and zebras, it just made our dreams come true. (Please give a big hand to Anthony, I would highly recommend him if you are going to join KWSS)
Besides game drive, the boat safari at Lake Naivasha and walking safari in Green Crater Lake are another kind of adventure in Kenya. We are so happy to have such experience before leaving Kenya.
All in all, we will definitely go again after 1 or 2 years. We have started to miss this paradise when we back to town.
