Wonderful energy and highly responsive
My experience with Active Planet Safaris was outstanding, thanks to the incredible team and thoughtful planning that made my trip unforgettable. Joel, who helped set up my itinerary, was exceptionally helpful and responsive. He provided me with multiple options to ensure I stayed within budget and tailored everything to my preferences. Joel’s warm energy shone through when he stopped by to meet me in person after my safari, which made me feel truly valued as a client.
My guide throughout the safari was Logan, a local expert originally from the Masai tribe with a background in wildlife studies, and was simply amazing. His deep knowledge and experience added so much to the trip. He shared fascinating facts and stories about the animals and the environment, making every moment memorable. Thanks to him, I was lucky enough to see the Big Five! For anyone interested in hiking Mount Kilimanjaro, he’s also a former hiking guide, so be sure to ask him about that as well.
Overall, Active Planet Safaris delivered a wonderful and once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful and personalized safari adventure.

An unforgettable, special experience with a new culture and beautiful nature!
My boyfriend and I went on a safari with Roko and Miranda. There was clear communication about the content of our trip in advance and it was adjusted to our personal preferences. Roko really has a lot of knowledge about nature, animals and the entire culture in Tanzania. We were able to see many animals and we were really lucky with this, but Roko and the driver also knew where to find the right places in the national parks. We also had a cook with us on safari who served us delicious food!
Afterwards we stayed for a week in Lake Natron. In the Maasai Guesthouse you will not miss anything as a guest. We also went on a walk to the lake and the waterfalls with Roko (and his brother Bura) as a guide, both walks are definitely recommended! Just like booking with Roko Safaris!

3 Days Safari - an incredible experience
It was a great experience we had with this safari.
Everything was perfectly organized by the company: the transport from the hotel in Zanzibar to the airport, the flights, the overnight accommodation, the safari.
Our driver Innocent picked us up at the airport in Arusha and we drove straight to Tarangire National Park. There was so much to see and our driver tried to show us as many animals as possible.
We stayed overnight near the Manyara National Park. The next day we went to the Ngorogoro crater. Here we were able to see all of the big five. (many thanks to Innocent)
We also visited a little village of Massai, which shown us there lifestyle.
On the third day we were in Manyara National Park. Here our driver tried to show us as many animals as possible, which is not that easy with so many trees. However, in the future I would consider whether I would go to this park again, since compared to the other two parks, there are now very few animals to be seen here. (apparently due to the rising water of the lake)
Innocent was a really good guide who saw animals long before us and pointed them out to us. For us they were mostly at that moment just small dots in the landscape.
Many thanks to the Travel Wise Team and our guide Innocent for this incredible Safari.

Amazing, fantastic experience
Picked up from the airport, taken to the office and then onto adventure. The Masi Mara is a beautiful place with a huge assortment of animals, which thanks to our guide Johny Jackson we saw everyone of. He drove us around for 2 days there and gave us an insight to the animals and how they live. He answered all of our questions and was very friendly, knowledgeable and a lovely man. Onward to Nakuru where again he made sure we saw everything in the national park. We then went on a boat trip at Lake Naivsaha, where we had a CLOSE encounter with a hippo! The accommodation has been very good everywhere and the Kenyan people are wonderful. The children smile and wave at you, the adults ask you how you are! They are amazing, I hope the country never changes. The company were very helpful when neither of our luggage made the flight and arrived a day late to Nairobi airport! They organised that it came up in the next available transport at no extra charge. I will definitely recommend this company to others, we told them our dates and they organised everything. Yes there is a lot of travelling between places but the memories are invaluable and I can't wait to share with others. Many, many thanks your amazing.

Well organized and very worth it
Everything was well arranged, specially the timing. Besides visiting the wonder of the natural park and reserves, the game driver also gives you free time to relax in the afternoon
Communication with our game driver (Joshua) was very good, he made sure that everything go smoothly and he respected the needs of the group. Also he has a wide knowledge about wildlife and nature and he answered all our questions.

Reliable, highly professional tour operator.
We just did a 2 day / 1 night Safari to Amboseli National Park as part of a stopover in Nairobi. Whole experience with Morningstar Tours was awesome. As a family with 2 children (5 and 7 years old) we had many questions which were all taken care of by Carolyn who was extremely attentive and speedy in her replies. All arrangements / promises (e.g. car seats) were kept as aligned. Our Guide Glenn, who picked us up from our Nairobi hotel and was also doing the game drives with us (one in the late afternoon, one in the early morning) delivered a Glenn-tastic experience. He knew exactly where to drive to in order to catch the best views and pictures. Having such a knowledgeable guide with lots of experience really makes a difference. He's certainly an asset for this company.
Wrapping things up, if you're planning to do a Safari and are shopping for a tour operator: Go with Morningstars and ask for Glenn. If you've the opportunity to add a stop-over to your Kenya Airways flight (as we did): Go for it! ;)

Amazing safari in the wild life
We got taken in charge from beginning to end it was a really good experience.
Someone came to pick us up, from our hotel (which was far away from stone town) brought up to the port, someone else gave us tickets, at the arrival our driver Kapande took care of us for 3 days answering all our questions and giving us more context.
During our Safari we had the chance to see a lot of animals among which were Giraffes, Lions, Elephants, Buffalos, Impalas, Baboons, Pumbas, and much more.
We also were provided with food (delicious) and water.
The tented camp had its charm as well

9 Amazing Days in Tanzania
What an amazing experience this was! Everything was perfect from start to finish. Makasa put together a perfect itinerary with a great blend of activities and lodging for our family of four. Our safari guide, Robert, was exceptional. He knew everything about the land and the animals and made sure we didn’t miss a single thing.

Into Adventures Safaris is a professional, family-friendly tour operator
This was our first safari as a family of four (2 adults and 2 young kids, ages 7 and 5), and our experience with Into Adventures Safaris surpassed all our expectations! From the start, Benson put together a fantastic itinerary, choosing accommodations that were both special and surprisingly comfortable, given how remote some locations were. It made our trip feel both adventurous and safe, which was important for us with young children.
John was our guide throughout, and he executed the plan to perfection. He was precise, knowledgeable, and patient, always going out of his way to ensure we saw the best parts of each park we visited. His passion for the wildlife and landscapes was clear, and he made each day a unique experience for us all. We felt in excellent hands the entire trip.
For families considering a safari adventure, I would highly recommend Into Adventures Safaris. They delivered an unforgettable, expertly planned trip that we will cherish for years to come.
