Very professional
Our trip had 3 different parts:
- Climbing Kilimanjaro in 6 days via Machame route. For this hard adventure, Gody was our main guide, with Emmanuel as our assistant guide, their experience and professionalism, as well as that of the dream team, took us to the summit (roof of Africa).
- 6 days safari at Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro area. We saw all the animals (cheetah and rhino included) with very amazing scenes and pictures :). Thanks to the best driver ever Jordan!
- 6 days at Zanzibar to relax after it all.
In general, thank you to Mellivora African Travels, in particular to Fransisca, for these memories, one of the most important trips in our lives. Chosing the perfect accomodations, guides and making it possible!
We truly recommend this company!

Amazing experience with Suricata Safaris
Amazing tour!! So surpassed our expectations. We managed to see all the big 5 & more thanks to our amazing guide Amiri with his super human eyesight! The parks themselves were each unique in their own right and wowed us in different ways. Accomodation was excellent, even had the excitement of having a hippo right outside our tent during the night in the Serengeti. The food was excellent and was full cooked meals for lunch compared to other companies where we saw packed lunch boxes. Would highly recommend anyone booking with Suricata, I hope to do another tour with them again someday.

Just a perfect safari
This safari tour exceeded all my expectations. From the wonderful tour guide Amiri to the incredible views around the parks, this trip has been one for the books. The selection of the three main parks allows you to see the animals in different landscapes and habitats, making the game drives very special.
Special mention to the packed food that was not the sad lunch boxes we saw around: we had proper three course meals with porcelain plates and everything.
The accommodation was just phenomenal. We even had a hippo as a visitor one of the nights in the Serengeti.
The beers by the pool at Suricata Lodge will always be a happy memory.
Thank you Suricata Safaris and Amiri for this unbelievable time.

An unforgettable safari with Baraka and Timon Safaris – we’ll gladly return!
We were fortunate to experience another safari with Baraka from Timons Safaris in September 2024 – this time in the breathtaking Northern Serengeti, and it was simply unforgettable! Baraka makes every safari special. Not only does he know the animals and their habitats, but he also has a knack for finding those hidden, unique places and magical moments – like the incredible Great Migration, which we were able to witness twice. Many travelers miss such highlights, but Baraka ensures his guests experience these unforgettable moments.
What truly sets Baraka apart is his warm and attentive nature. He goes above and beyond to accommodate all our wishes, planned the entire trip perfectly, and selected a wonderful lodge for us. With his extensive network of lodges and years of experience, he provided us with the best possible safari experience. It’s the little gestures that make him an outstanding guide: he regularly checks with other guides to stay updated on animal sightings and proactively assists if another guide has a breakdown – something not many of his fellow guides do. With over 10 years of experience, Baraka is not only an excellent driver, navigating all terrains with ease, but also a thoughtful companion who always ensures his guests feel comfortable.
Thanks to Baraka, our journey became an unforgettable experience. We are already looking forward to our next adventure with him, and we wholeheartedly recommend Baraka and Timons Safaris to anyone seeking an authentic and unique safari experience.

Well organised, professional, the best
Beautiful, amazing experience with the best guides Mambo and Eric.
They teached us so much stuff about Kenya and Nature beauty.
Really we couldn't ask for a better experience!

We saw it all! (minus a leopard)
7 day safari Maasai Mara-Lake Nakuru-Lake Navaisha- Hells Gate-Amboseli.
A great safari choice! Jocky was helpful and accommodating from the booking process thru the end of the 7 day safari.
Be ready to sit in the car for most of the safari. No matter what safari company you choose… buckle up. We drove at least 1,200 km in 7 days. But it’s totally worth it to see everything. I promise.
We loved the itinerary that Jocky offered. All the parks are so different from each other so the change of scenery every day or two was perfect. I also loved the stop in hell’s gate. It was nice to be able to get out of the car, stretch your legs and walk/bike around and enjoy the scenery. The lodging we were given each night was also very nice. For a budget accommodation package we received amazing food and hospitality. We stayed at Lenchada Tourist Camp, Buraha Zenoni Hotel, Chambai Safari Hotel, and Manjaro tented camp. At Lenchada and manjaro camps we were supposed to stay in tents but got upgraded to rooms since it’s the low season and they were unoccupied. So that’s a positive about going in the low season.
Last but not least I cannot thank my driver enough!!! Joseph, you were such a lovely and knowledgeable host. Joseph’s 10 years of experience really showed, he knew these parks like the back of his hand. Joseph knew all the spots to find the big 5. He was able to get us multiple lion, rhino, and cheetah sightings. (You’ll see the rest of the animals no problem). Joseph could spot a rhino laying in the bush from 300 yards away. It blew my mind. Unfortunately we did not spot a leopard but that just gives us an excuse to come back! So close to seeing the big 5!!
Our visit in November was during the low season and we were lucky to not receive any rain on our game drives. I can’t imagine what it’s like to witness Kenya in the peak of summer or during the great migration.
I highly recommend a Kenya Safari,
I highly recommend Joseph,
I highly recommend Jocky Safari
Pro tip: do some research on animals you are going to see. It makes the game drives so much more interesting and you learn what to look for. For example, black rhinos are often in pairs so if you see one there’s probably another close by. Example 2, male antelope herds are far more susceptible to becoming prey. So if you see a male herd, keep your eyes peeled for a big cat looking for dinner. Sorry for the long review, I hope this helps. I’ve traveled to 25 countries and this was by far the coolest experience I’ve ever had.
