Excellent service at reasonable price
My wife and I traveled on the last week of May just couple of weeks after the massive flooding affecting Keyia. We took 5;day Safari trip in Amboseli, lake Naivasha and Mara, on upper medium/low luxury lodges.
Joysharon arranged our trip and was extremely diligent with my requests. I have explored numerous options asking recurrently for quotes considering all possible alternatives and she was very quick and professional responding every time. She even responded promptly in weekends, which was very surprising to me.
The Morningstar prices come more advantageous then other 3 quotes I have requested from competitors for exactly same lodges
The real highlight of the trip was however our guide, Rono. Excellent driver and having outstanding knowledge of the animals, birds and plants he could easily pass as National Geographic ambassador. With his very friendly attitude and calm temper he was an excellent interlocutor. We spoke about all aspects of life ane we learned so much about Kenya.
I warmly recommend them to anyone that want to have the best service possible and at very reasonable cost.

Best safari in Tanzania
By far the best safari company! The pick-up/drop-off at the airport, the safari experience, the accomodations and the food were all perfect. We couldn't ask for more. Mister T picked us up at the airport and bring us to our first hotel where he explained to us the next steps in our safari experience. He was really caring. Rocky, our safari guide, was really great and he always brang us to the best spots around the national parks and conservation areas to observe rare and wonderful animals. With him, we learned a lot about the tanzanian tribes and culture, the animal behaviors and the nature. He was always there to answer our questions. (Except for the escape route in Ngorongoro crater... ;) ) Finally, a big thanks to Salim, our personnal chef, that cooked the best dishes for us during all the safari trip. Thanks to all the crew members. We will surely refer you to our family and friends !

Brilliant Masai Mara Experience
We did a 3D/2N trip to the Masai Mara and thoroughly enjoyed it and saw lots of wildlife.
Our driver/guide John was awesome, we couldn’t have asked for better.
The trip was organised well and easily, and communication was quick.
Thank you!

Drove safely from each stopping point; quiet.
Pros (+) We made it to each location safely and in a relatively timely manner. The hotel in Swakopmond and Desert Lodge were both great stays. The food at the Lodge was excellent. The tour to Dune 45 and Big Daddy were great. The day trip in Swakopmund was outstanding.
Cons(-) The trip would be better if we were able to choose the restaurants. We ate in Hungry Lion on the drive and Pubs in Swakopmund. It would have been better if the meals were not included in the cost and we were in our own to find a restaurant of our choice. Also the tour started a few hours late and the communication regarding the late start and the plan to fill the time was poor.

An absolutely perfect safari experience for my family and I
Luis, Patrick, and Ian were absolutely flawless during our time with them. They made us feel like family from the beginning, and were always willing to go above and beyond to accommodate any needs or questions we may have had. We were able to see so many animals in the two parks we visited, and when it was allowed, we had opportunities to get quite close to the animals to just be able to admire them and get amazing photos.
Thank you so much to you three for making this experience for my family and I unforgettable. Imara Africa Safaris has my fully recommendation, don't look any further, and just book with them!

Adventure with a great team
It was a dream of ours to do a Safari and the itinerary that we built with Skytheme was simply breathtaking every single day.
The key for us was we wanted to see lots of wildlife as well as different landscape. Skytheme team delivered on all aspects. Liberty was our guide and not only was he a deep well of knowledge, he was fun and relentless in trying to find the elusive cats.
The rest of the team was also the cherry on the cake with KG the bush kitchen chef who baked bread daily and cooked amazing food innthe bush, Dicky and Dennis our mechanic and camp manager, we came every night to what fell like a second home campbase. I cannot recommend them enough !
Very professional, very organised very friendly.
Would not hesitate to use this company. Communication and planning was simple, all requests met. Well looked after from start to finish. All went smoothly, met wonderful people.

Ganyana Safaris worked hard to meet all of the needs and desires to make our trip amazing!
The service received from Ganyana was amazing. They paid attention to all details and when their were concerns or changes that we wanted they addressed them immediately, Everything that we said we wanted to cover they made sure to address from activities to the type of lodging. We went all over Uganda and we started in Entebbe and went to Murchison Falls National Park, Kibale National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, we went to the source of the Nile and white water rafting in Jinja, Rhino Trekking in Ziwa and Chimpanzee Trekking and Gorilla Trekking and Lion Trekking and community walks, nature walks, and a variety of other activities in addition to the regular safari drives and craft markets. Our guide was Musoke who was phenomenal and made sure that we were taken care of every where we went. Juma helped to arrange the trip and worked with us hand in hand with the planning and when there was a problem at the airport with the visas, he worked to correct the problem on the spot. We could not have asked for a better situation or for more from anyone that we dealt with from the company. Everything was more than we had expected and we were more than pleased! We would definitely recommend them 100%.

Very professional but laid back.
Thale handled our booking and replied promptly to all our questions and provided a clear itinerary for our private tour. Ryan picked us up from Hoedspruit Airport and we were straight into wild animal spotting as we drove to our first camp, Skukuza. Bungalow here was all we could want. Ryan then turned into a bbq chef and cooked a lovely dinner which we ate under the stars. Next day we did a slow animal spotting drive to the center of the park to spend two nights at Satara camp, the bungalow here was even better with a great bbq and outside dining area. Before sun rise he had us waiting at the camp gate to open, serving hot coffee as we waited. We spent the day zig zagging around the park spotting every imaginable wildlife, Lions, Zebras, Hyena, Giraffes, Wilder beast, elephant Hippos, Leopard with baby, crocodile and many birds to name just a few. What amazed us was Ryan would always spot the animals before we did and he was driving. I think if we had been driving we would have missed many of the animals. On the last day he drove us back to Hoedspruit where we caught a minibus to Johannesburg. This tour was without doubt the highlight of our holiday which had started with a cruise from Singapore to Capetown.
