Safari With Us has been our go to travel company in Africa!
Once again, thank you Andre for your help in putting our safari tour of Kenya together! It was fabulous!
Our guide, Daniel was friendly, professional and very informative. He really was excellent and I would certainly recommend him to others.
The accommodations were great. Staff in each of the hotels were outstanding.
Your suggestion to have a car/ guide for the entire week was an excellent idea.
Food was great too. Lots of choices for each meal.
Our daily drives were perfect. We were lucky and saw so many animals. And I finally saw my leopard!
The only difficulty we had was with internet connections. Our last hotel in the Mara had very poor connectivity, but it was a great spot and we liked the hotel. Sad to say goodbye to Africa!

Magic 5 days 4 nights lodge safari with AAA Express Adventures
Based on the great reviews on Tripadvisor and on Safaribooking homepages I contacted AAA Express Adventures 3-4 months before a private Christmas-safari for 4 adults from Arusha, Tanzania and everything was 100% from the first contact with the owner Jalala Ndosa. Quick and correct response to every question on the email. Excellent flexibility according to our requests.
A safari is perhaps one of the most expensive trips you make but considering the standard of everything that was delivered the price was absolutely reasonable when compared to other companies in Arusha and much lower than in you book via a travel agency back home. The initial payment was lower (20% of total) than what I could find at other companies and was made with banktransfer with no problems. Recieved an email after 4 days confirming that initial payment was OK. Did not want to bring a lot of cash (in dollars) on our pre-safari trip to Zanzibar and again a message was recieved just a few days after visiting my own bank that everything was OK.
A special comment on payment: We are used to pay with credit cards but sending substantial sums with banktransfer with virtually "no insurance" is of course a scary business. I contacted the company that runs Safaribookings homepage where AAA Express i registred and they informed me that this is the common practise and in the few cases that there had been any diagreements between a company and a customer they had always solved the problem. They also checked the "record" of AAA Express Adventures and could see that they did not have a single complaint since they were registered on the homepage. That information made me feel very comfortable.
From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport everything was exactly as promised with prefect timing. Transfer to hotel before safari was on time. Our excellent driver/guide Steven waited outside the hotel lobby next morning as agreed on. The Safari in it self was magic. Steven must be one the best guides in the area and has more than 20 years of experience of everything that has to do with the history of the National Parks (Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and the rest), the animals, the tribes and everything else. He was absolutely outstanding. And a real caracter. He could virtually "smell animals". From one moment to the other he just turned the wheel of the vehicle and up in the tree was a family of the famous tree climbing lions in Lake Manyara. One the sometimes muddy roads of Serengeti when lots of vehicles got stuck Steven took us safely to our lodge. When there was a long line to check in he arranged VIP-treatment and everything was ready in a few minutes. And the best with a safari guide, he just cannot stop looking for animals. On our trip back to Arusha after the safari he stepped on the brakes on main road because he spotted elephants and giraffes in a plantation. With Steven as a guide we saw everything we had expected and more. If I do another safari I will definitely ask for Steven. The bottom line is that from our point of view AAA Express Adventure was very serious, reliable and delivered what they had promised and att a very reasonable cost. I will not hesitate to use them again.
