Amazing Safari Company
We decided to make small group tour for 8 days with KWSS, and we were initially a bit hesitant because of the low price of the tour. When we saw the good reviews, we made our decision and we never regretted a single moment. Our guide was Paul and he has extensive knowledge about the parks and he was working hard to make us happy during the whole holiday. The food our chef Jacob prepared for us was really delicious. We met other travellers during the holiday and looking at the prices of other companies, it is hard to see how KWSS gave such a great service with a very reasonable price. I even checked this overland bus trucks, and even this gigantic buses where you share the costs with dozens of people is even much more expensive than KWSS. We might come back again in future and will definitely work with KWSS again. It is a very nice company with nice people. As a friendly reminder, please do not forget to tip the guide and chef at the end of the tour because they really work hard to make your holiday a special one ;)

Well organized and customer oriented
Me and my family did a two day Safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro National Park. Since African Travel Tour is a very small organization I was directly in contact with the managing director and owner Abraham Akyoo. The communication with him was very smooth and he organized everything we requested. Another plus was the price-service ratio. African Travel Tour offered the best price because they organize shared Safaris which is more fun anyhow, because you get to know people and you are not alone in a big car. One minus, which all the agencies do, they bring you to these fancy tourist shops where you can buy highly priced crafts which usually cost a portion of it. Otherwise me and my family were happy to have booked our trip through African Travel Tour.

Fantastically efficient from the planning right through to the safari experience, highly recommend!
After emailing a few other safari operators, Anne at Amazing Memories impressed me with her efficiency and ability to organise a trip suitable within my specified budget for 2 adults & our two teenage boys. On arrival at Nairobi we were met by Anne & Joseph and met our safari driver/guide Daniel. We had the most fantastic week , early mornings, very long journeys sometimes on very bumpy roads but worth it all to see the wildlife in 5 national parks/reserves, Masai Mara being our favourite followed by 1 night at Lake Navaisha (a unique experience not to be missed) All the lodges/tented camps were of a high quality as was the food! Daniel was an excellent driver/guide and ensured we saw the big 5 which we were lucky to see in the first couple of days! We were sad to leave him in Mombasa after our adventures together. I can highly recommend this company, fantastic from the planning stage, booking process and during our trip!

Fantastic helpful service minded tour operator with a superb guide!
We’re really happy with Saso Ugandan Safaris, they made our 18 day safari through Uganda better than we expected! Everything worked out perfect, the response to our mail before the trip was really quick, the payments were smooth and our whishes to change the travel plans were arranged in a second. Turkish Airlines had lost our luggage upon arrival but thanks to Saso, who picked the luggage up for us, we got it back whitin a few days-really serviceminded! Our guide Gerald was the best guide we ever had (and me and my husband travells quite a lot) fun, an excellent spotter with very good knowledge of the animals and the parks. The standard of the accommodation was better than we expected (tented camps) and the food was so good throughout all of our journey! We strongly recommend Saso as your tour operator on your Safari!

Satisfactory safari provisioning
I chose Crystal Safaris after reading reviews and comparing prices for safaris on this website. They seemed to be solid value for the price, which was the case. I had booked for 3 days to Murchison Falls, then expanded to 6 days. My email interactions with Barbara were fine; she responded quickly with information. However, I wish that more information about the hotels would be included in the package description. I was not prepared for the quality of the room in Paraa Lodge - I expected to have AC and a view, but neither was provided. Knowing more about the hotel prior would have allowed me to manage my expectations, and not be disappointed.
Our driver, George, was very good and attentive to our needs. He did a great job on the game drive to find nearly all animals present in the park - the only one he couldn't find was the leopard, which is not surprising. On our last day with the tour, in Entebbe, George was needed for another tour, so we got a different guide. This guy must have been new to the company, because he did not have quite the same skills and personability as George.
Overall I was satisfied with the tour and would recommend Crystal Safaris.

Very Interesting Trip
We had enjoyed our Tanzania tour with the awesome trip guide. I like the way Orongai Africa Safari experts helped me to explore the beauty of Tanzania during the tour.

A bad organitzacion tour
It was a bad experience.
Every day they come to pick up late, the excursions were different that we read on the tour information. The last day they don't pick up us to take to the airport, we've got to take a taxi after waiting and calling them for more than 30 minutes.
The guides were so kindly and good, but the organitzacion was very bad.

Amazing safari experience with excellent guide
We decided for safari in Tsavo East national park, which is located not so far away from the coast. Our experience was excellent, the guide was very punctual, he gave us many information about local life in Kenya, he made our safari experience memorable. We liked our camp, as it was placed by the river, where we could observe hippos in the morning and in the evening. The WOW moment was definitely an elephant Mario, a camp pet, which sometimes comes to the camp and freely walks around it. we were lucky to see him, it's nice to see a wild animal so up close. Me and my friends were definitely happy with safari organisation, so keep on with good work Eyes on Africa!

Great experience form start to finish
I have been impressed with Elvis, the owner, in my dealings with him from the beginning. He is responsive, knowledgeable and very open to working with you to help you have the experience you want. He works with amazing staff. We went to S. Africa, to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and into Botswana. Did Safri in Kruger National park as well as Chobe and did boat safari on Zambize River and the Chobe River. Different guides in different place because El Mundo Safaris works with local people. What a difference it can make to have a guide from the area you are visiting. There were hiccups at times (as is common with travel) and El Mundo Safaris handled each issue professionally and timely. The knowledge of teh guides and the drivers added layers and dimensions to the trip beyond just how amazing it was to BE on a safari and to see things like a leopard in a tree with it's half eaten impala tucked under his paw. You cannot see that on a reserve where the wild animals are fed by people. My husband was ambivalent about going to Africa and did not have going on a safari on his (long) list of things to see and do. Now, he says it is a trip that should be on everyone's short list. We want to go to Tanzania/Kenya area next and we will be doing it with EL Mundo Safaris.
epic adventure
Blacksands safari is well organised and personal with its clients. It made good their promise and delivered beyond their promise.
I was thoroughly impressed.
Keep up the great work.
