Wonderful Masai Mara Experience on a Budget
We had an amazing time in Masai Mara.The tent was basic but comfy enough. Our safari guide named Gibson was amazing. He's the perfect guide! When we come back, we'll definitely request for him to be our safari guide again!

Safari Maasai Mara + Lake Nakuru
The communication by email was very good. They came to pick us up at the hotel 45 minutes late without notifying us, but fortunately they arrived. The Safari was wonderful. Our driver Jackson was really good and very helpful. The eco camp had basic services, but we knew it.

Vimbai who was my contact person was very efficient and replied my emails prromptly.
I did not go on any safaris but booked my accommodation through Falcon Safaris. The accommodation was very good and we got a family room as we had requested.

Great 7 day safari in Botswana
We did the 7-Day Moremi & Chobe Wilderness Trail 2 Pax. I can definitely recommend this tour. A mobile safari is a unique experience, and we enjoyed it a lot.
Our team (guide Teenage and chef GeBe) was fantastic. Monametsi, the facilitator of the company, worked very hard to solve the issues that came up at the beginning of the tour.

Great tour, lots of impressive animals, unorganized schedule
We booked a 4-days tour through Masai Mara NP, Lake Naivasha with boat ride and Nakuro NP with 2 nights speeping in a tented camp and on night in a hotel.
lots of animals
great driver
unorganized scheduling
acceptable accomodations
respectful treatment of animals
It was a gorgeous journey and our driver, James, was one of the highlights beside the impressive animals! We saw nearly everything we dreamed of, elephants, lions, a cheetah, rhinos, different types of giraffes, a lot of different beautiful birds, hippos, monkeys, buffalos, antilopes... only the leopard we missed, but James gave his very best. We saw the most animals incredibly near, for example lions or giraffes with a distance of less than 5m or rhinos with less than 10m. But it never seemed to injure the animals freedom.
It was just a pitty, that we needed to discuss with different people so often about what be booked, what was included and how the plan for the tour was. For example we didn‘t have a walking/cycling tour, we didn‘t get 3l water per person per day but 1l instead, we didn‘t visit the Hells gate NP, we didn‘t see the promised baby elephant in an extra area, we didn‘t visit the giraffe center.
All in all, the tour was quite different than described. The tour was described very detailed with certain timeslots and in a specific order, but nothing matched to that schedule, which does actually not matter, but nobody told us so. So we expected for example to drive to the lake Naivasha, but arrived at the Masai Mara NP and wondered if we took the wrong tour bus by accident...
The booked accomodations were acceptable, espacially for the price we paid, ~400 US $ per person. The first one at the Masai Mara NP was a tented camp with a nice areal and quite delicious food. The second one at Nakuro NP was in the Hotel Citynax with very friendly personal. But in both accomodations it lasted ~20 mins until we get warm water in the shower. While the water in the hotel just got semi warm to still too cold ~20 celsius degrees. This hotel also didn‘t have the promised standard as descibed with „Gilden Palace Hotel or similar“.
Nevertheless it was a great experience and I would book another tour with your company again.

Everything worked as promised. No complains.
First guide Ambros was excellent. Wery knowing asked allways can we start the car, have all finished photoshooting etc. Also Kobra was helpfull and knowing. Rhino camp was better than expected. Amboseli camp worse. Lake Nakuru really had only Rhinos and Rothschilds giraffes. Cars are a bit too crowded when 6-7 people in. Max 5.
Would leave Nakuru out next time.
Can and will reccommend.

Saw everything I wanted to see
I just went on a 7 day tour and absolutely loved Uganda and I saw everything I wanted to see during my tour. My only issues were the lack of communication, responses were very slow at times which made it difficult when I’m in another country trying to organize the rest of my travels. I had signed up for a group tour being a solo female traveler, I was told I would join in on a group that was already happening when I got there so it was important I got there on a scheduled date. I kept asking Michael for the copy of the itinerary for the day by day schedule since mine was modified but I never received it. When I landed the ladies who picked me up were very nice but they told me I was signed up for an individual tour and the printed itinerary they handed me was not the places I wanted. I sent Michael a message and he assured me it was a group tour and I would meet them at Murchison falls and he said the ladies confused the itinerary and gave me someone else’s. The ladies told me to be ready at 10:30am the next day to start the tour, Michael had sent me a few messages right before I went to bed and apparently I somehow missed the one that said meet at 8:30 the next morning, so the next day Michael told me they were waiting for me since 8am. I had just landed the night before after a 27 hour flight, had he sent me the itinerary I asked for several times for scheduling and times there wouldn’t have been any issues on timing. After days of riding solo in the car with I asked Michael what happened to the group, He said they changed flights or something and explained the tour must have continued which I agree 100% but I was never told and just left to wonder my driver didn’t tell me anything either. He did upgrade my rooms which I did appreciate, the lodges were all very nice. On my last day on the way back to kampala I was asked to pay for my lunch although it was noted on my itinerary so I thought it was included. I hope that with better communication I can do another tour with them in the future because they were all prompt when I got there and my driver was always on schedule and very knowledgeable
