Lovely safari experience, but anticlimactic village tour
We really liked the ease with which we made the booking and fast communication with Rajab. We booked two tours: the safari tour was well organised, on time and both the driver (Fred) and ranger (Majid) were very good and gave us great information. We saw quite a few wild animals and had a full day. The second day we booked a tour to see the chaga people’s village and historical caves. GoodLuck has a delightful character, very positive and always smiling but we found the tour a little uneventful. The caves were very interesting and GoodLuck tried his best to suit our needs but it felt a little unorganised.

Well organized beach holiday
Everything went as planned.
Their services were beyond our expectations.
Everything about Neptune beach was excellent.
We will do it again with skywide Tours.

Truely Exciting
Wow.
After much debating with my friends with which company to go on safari with, we finally decided to use APS.
And what a good choicevening we made.
We had a great time!!
What an experience throughout.
Thank you John (guide) for your eagerness to share and ensure we enjoyed our stay.

Good experience! recommended!
In general I am very happy satisfied with the "fish eagle" 10 nights trip, whole new experience,safari itself exceeded my expectation, the guide and chef are very professional,which made the trip unforgettable, I recommend! .... only very small remark, it could be better to tell the participants there is no need to buy drinking water since there is a filter system in the car, as well as the rent of sleeping bag could be charged at the beginning together with the Safari fee

No issues here
A friend and I took part in the 6 day northern circuit camping in late May 2019. Booking our trip was easy, and Orongai was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns that we had.
Our guide, Freddie, was great too. We spent many hours with him and were never bored. He always kept us entertained with his singing and whistling and it helped the driving pass a little quicker. During the game drives, he always ensured that we got a good view of the animals and a good spot to take photos.
Our chef was DVD, and he was great as well! We never went hungry, and we always had a great selection. His antics and quirky personality were something to look forward to for every meal. We miss DVD and Freddie dearly and wished they could have accompanied us on the rest of the trip!
The tent was good quality. The foamie mattresses were alright (not great), but definitely the same quality as the rest of the tour companies. Some of the camp sites were a little disappointing (we had to wait for water to be turned on at the first one because they apparently didn't expect us to use the sinks or showers) but still better than we expected before we started the trip.
If you are thinking of a safari, you would not be mistaken to choose Orongai. The price of tour is great, and the trip itself was phenomenal. Unlike some other reviews on this site, we did not have any issues with money....what we were quoted is what we paid. Just make sure, if you are going to Ngorongoro Crater, to pack some warm layers as it gets very cold.

Great experience
I went with my mom and for her it was the first time ever doing a safari. She had a great day. I think for me it was over too quickly and we were already driving out before I knew what was happening. I think we still had some time left, but maybe we simply had seen all there was to see at the moment.
I loved the guys knowledge about all the wildlife and I asked them a ton of questions which they all happily answered. It was so interesting to not only see but also learn a lot about the wildlife.

Return by family to where they grew up and went to school-- Kenya and Tanzania
Denham Holidays was picked from about five other safari companies to supply a safari of remembrances for our family of 6 for TZ. and for 8 in Kenya. The initial inquiry was responded to in a 1 day time frame, which was miraculous, usually taking 4-10 days to do so. Everything we requested as far as the kind of lodging, places to go and the animals we saw would rate 5*. The Tanzania part of our trip, which was 6 days, was beyond excellent. The driver was very personal, interacting very good with the family, all of whom were fluent in Swahili. It was a fun and rewarding time of re-visiting places in Tanzania that we knew so well.
The Kenya part of the safari, which was 7 days, was very rewarding in terms of animals seen and lodging. Samburu, always our family favorite, lived up to, and actually exceeded our remembrances of past visits. This was given 4 stars because there was a problem with the vehicle, which was remedied after our 2 days in Amboseli, and miscommunications between the transport company and Denhum Holidays. These were corrected, and we arrived at Nairobi in plenty of time to depart at midnight for our return to the U.S.A. Would I recommend Denhum Holidays? I already have, and the family has contacted Ian Njoroge, and he has replied as they look forward to visiting the same 2 countries in the near future.

Good safari experience
I contacted Boso dabreo safaris last minute for a 3 days budget safari to Masai Mara. She was able to arrange it successfully and I had an unforgettable experience. She arranged also the driver to pick me up from my hotel and I think she can provide several other services. Lydia is kind and helpful and she can find a solution for your need. Do not hesitate to contact her to arrange a safari for you.
