"An unforgettable trip to Tanzania thanks to Ker & Downey”
Although being used to organising our travels on our own, for this trip to Tanzania we decided to engage Ker & Downey as we wanted everything to be perfect. From the beginning we felt in excellent hands with Rory. He worked everything together making us quickly an exciting proposal fit in with our budget. Until the moment we actually started the trip, he answered always immediately and had an immense patience with all our tiny questions.
The team of Ker & Downey managed to not only fulfil our very high expectations but even exceeded them. We had a fantastic experience, wonderful in every way: all the camps, their staff, the food, the car and its equipment, the parks, the nature, the animals, even the weather with only some short refreshing rains, really everything was perfect. Ker & Downey organised everything with no problem, booking some wonderful accommodations and allowing us to fully enjoy our trip.
Our guide David understood immediately our desire to be away from the crowds and with his kindness and calm, his great respect for nature and its wildlife, he made our journey an unique and amazing experience. He made it possible that most of the time we really were on our own, having the feeling that we were in Paradise on Earth with only animals around us. His enormous knowledge about all kind of animals and their habitat has enriched the experience even more.
We thank all those involved for setting up such an awesome trip and recommend Ker & Downey without any doubt!

Thank you for a flawless safari!
Beacon Safaris was excellent to work with from start to finish. Communication was quick and efficient. We had to make some changes in plans while we were in Kenya regarding pick-up. Thank you, Robert, for suggesting you send a driver to Kakamega to pick us up. The additional cost was reasonable and Josh actually found us in our somewhat rural and remote Kakamega home! Our Masai Mara experience was fabulous. We loved Ilkeliani Camp and were most happy with our guide and driver, Josh. We saw four of the big five! We had seen rhino the previous week at Ol Pejeta, so we weren't disappointed in not seeing one at Masai Mara. I would highly recommend Beacon Safaris.

Helpful, careful and great fun.
We employed This company to take care of us last time we were in Uganda.i have to say that Ronald, our driver, enhanced our trip more than you would ever think. He is an exceptionally energetic and reliable young man. From the beginning he took care of us, meeting us from the airport and doing whatever we wanted, except what he thought was unsafe. The young man knows his way around the system. He is fully aware of what is interesting, fascinating and exciting but equally what is dangerous. The prices are reasonable and the company is totally reliable. I recommend it highly

Couldn't-be-better safari tour operator
African Scenic Safaris gave us an incredible safari experience. We spent 6 days in the Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti and Tarangire. African Scenic Safaris seemed much better priced than their competitors. Amanda was very responsive to all our enquiries. Our tour guide was Rasheed and found so many animals for us! And Goodluck, our cook, made delicious meals every time. All in all, the safari couldn't have been better.

Great stays, great safari, great planning
Over the new year 2015/2016 our family had the pleasure to visit Ngorongoro and Serengeti with Fanaka Tours. We had a lifetime experience with lots of animals, great places to stay and good service level from Fanaka. We can recommend this agency a lot.

Open Africa Safaris trip to Serengeti was simply the best guided wildlife adventure tour I have been
Tony Milinga was our driver and guide for the entire 7 day Sergenti trip. He was excellent ! His communications, his service were outstanding. He took care of us very well. He made sure our stay and trip was most comfortable and we had vegetarian food throughout the trip. He showed us the best game, saw all the animals, some in action and got to see all the big five. He was patient, friendly and provided great customer service. He made our trip memorable. John William, the sales manager gave us all the info to get ready for the trip. Accommodations were excellent and service was great ! My family and I recommend Open Africa Safaris to all who want to see the great Serengeti park because it is a once in a life time experience to see so many animals in 1 park.
Perfect trip
We were a group of two families - four adults, six children - that toured Serengeti and Ngorongoro in the Xmas of 2015 with Fanaka tour. The trip was well organized and the lodges and camps were value for money. Fanaka offered a very competitive package.

Our Experience with Feline Safaris
Bariki, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and had a neck for spotting wildlife and just knowing the best spots before it even showed up. We were always first to spot something before other tour guides and jeeps arrived at the scenery. The whole Safari was completely tailored to our needs.
We visited the N'gorogoro Crater as well as Serengeti to witness the Gnu and Zebra Migration. Saw a large variety of what mother nature has to offer. From herds of elephants carrying for their babies, lots of Lions, cheetahs hunting for pray to a Leopard feasting on a buck, we even saw the very endangered black rhino in N'gorogoro Crater and had an elephant strolling by our tent at night. All in all the whole safari was such a humbling experience, something that we will never forget and always cherish! We had such an amazing experience going on Safari with Feline Safaris. We are 100% sure to come back for more!
