Review about Kenya by Ashwati Vipin
The hotels and lodges are a treat to stay in. The ambience is terrific and the staff are very warm and helpful. The food is great too and the rooms are very comfortable.

We dealt with Kathi and she offered excellent advise, was prompt in her responses and very helpful
Everything was booked for us and the logistics worked perfectly. We were looking at 2 different lodges and were told about both and given recommendations. We chose Sabi Sabi Little Bush Camp and had the most wonderful experience in the bush.

A Well Done & Memorable Trip
A safari trip has always been on my travel list (bucket list to some) and I must say that Makasa Tanzanian Safaris managed to wow me on my 9-day tour of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. They not only booked my friends and I to see the best national parks but they had the most amazing Humphrey guide us on this adventure. I call it an adventure because we were never sure of what our surprise was going to be each day. From a herd of 20+ elephants crossing in front of vehicle to lions mating less than 30 meters away or a cheetah digging into his fresh caught kill, the sights just were breathtaking. Our trip was the smoothest from start to finish and the lodging selected in each of these areas were clean and comfortable. Maramboi tented camp was unique as it gave us the camp feel yet had all the amenities of a hotel. Both Sopa Lodges in Serengeti and Ngorongoro had unlimited views of the Serengeti Plains and the Ngorongoro Crater. Selma and her staff were very quick to respond to questions and handled bookings promptly. She and her family even took time to meet with us at breakfast in Moshi before sending us off on our journey.
All in all, they were very responsible and we felt well taken care of. I would recommend Makasa to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient service
We had a great experience with African Welcome Safaris! They were referred to us by other friends who also used them and sang their praises. Kathi was wonderful - responsive to our needs and requests and provided fantastic recommendations. For the most part all of our travel and transfers went smoothly. The one hiccup we encountered was due to an airline cancellation and Kathi stepped in to ensure that all subsequent arrangements were adjusted accordingly, which was of tremendous help. Our safari was a once in a lifetime experience and the lodge was excellent - both in terms of experience and value.

Great and very professional
I used spot Kenya Safaris to organize a safari for guests who were coming to Kenya for my wedding. They were very easy to work with and completely professional. My guests all enjoyed the safari and had a wonderful experience.

The best way to go safari
Flexible and great, the whole way from ordering to servicing us after we came home. We even had a sick day during the safari, but KET made arrangements so we could swap hotels and that without costs. Our driver (Lucky) Tony was great, took some drives the others didn't so we got to see the big 5 and many more. We went for private tour and Land Rover, I'd say that's vital for the flexibility and comfort. During our couple of weeks stay around Kenya this was definitely the highlight.

Kilimanjaro Private Climb
We had a wonderful experience with the Discover Africa team on our trip to Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar. Due to unforeseen circumstances we needed to head down early and their team were most helpful in arranging exciting new options for us while we waited to travel to the rest of our holiday destinations. Overall a sensational trip and all round excellent service.

A life changing experience in the best possible way
We have been traveling with Cross Country Air Safari's for the past 9 years, and to say it started out fantastic and just keeps getting better would be an understatement. Being in a wheelchair every effort was made to make sure the camps/hotels are suitable and all arrangement's from the moment we land until the time we leave are taken care of very professionally. Nothing is to much trouble! CCAS tailor made our safari's to some of the most exquisite game viewing and scenery on the planet and all with a nice personal touch :) cannot recommend CCAS enough +++++

Very punctual, friendly, professional, I would recommend it to everybody.
We were picked up at 06.30 exactly, as arranged, from our hotel and taken by Alex, a very informed guide, good driver and friendly person to our tented camp (which was also an experience in itself, despite of the bad condition of the road to it: monkeys, bushbucks etc literally running wround your tent, good fod and friendly people), and had that same day our first safari. The next day we spent the whole day in Masai Mare, saw a lot of wildlife including a lioness in a tree. Alex knows virtually all other guides so he was well informed of where we could spot what, and he could tell us a lot about it. Unfortunately the next day we already had to head back to Nairobi (next time I'll book a longer trip) where we had still an interesting visit to the Karen Blixen Museum.
Seven by Far turned out to be very flexible and considerate, adjusting the trip to our personal wishes (we are vegetarians and the camp was informed of this).
Seven by Far gave us an unforgettable experience, can recommend it to everybody. And by the way, this was not my first safari so I can compare.

Value for money
We were on a fixed budget and Safarihub was helpful in organising our trip within the price range.I was surprised at the quality of some the lodges which I would have considered well above mid range level. The car was comfy and the driver knew his stuff - all transfers were on time.
