Abroad to Tanzania Safaris was the right choice for our safari
We had most wonderful time on our Tanzania trip with these guys. Since the beginning and the preliminary talks and planning went smooth. The guys took care of us all the way, since arriving at Kilimanjaro airport to all the transfers and game drives we had amazing time, and cannot thank them enough for all they did to make our holiday truly memorable. Big thanks to Paul and his team for everything.

Interesting, knowledgeable, easy going, comfortable
We had Victor be our driver from Nairobi to Amboseli and back for 3 day, 2 night tour. It was a 4-5 hr drive to and from Amboseli but the conversation with Victor about Kenya made the time go by quickly. It was amazing and eye opening to experience the life of an average Kenyan throughout the drive in the city, small towns and countryside. We stayed at the Sopa Lodge with great service, pleasant staff, comfortable beds, and decent food. Nice to have a pool. We enjoyed Hemingways Bar and the bartender. In the late afternoon and all day drive Amboseli we saw beautiful Mt Kilimanjaro and many animals with the elephants being the highlight. We feel the price was reasonable for our family of 4, including a 12 and 10 year old, since we had Victor all to ourselves. We recommend Victor and Majestic tours for your next Kenya Safari. Joseph made the booking process easy too.

A Remarkable Uganda Adventure with Kajie Safaris
I recently embarked on a 7-day journey to Uganda with Kajie Safaris, and I can confidently say it was one of my best trips to Africa. My decision to choose Kajie was based on thorough research into local travel agencies, and it turned out to be the best decision I made for this adventure.
From my initial query to the moment I departed, the founder, Ronald, exhibited exceptional professionalism and a passion for providing an unforgettable experience. The meticulous planning started with numerous email exchanges to craft the perfect itinerary. Ronald's suggestions, backed by his extensive experience, proved invaluable, and I'm grateful for his insights.
What truly sets Kajie Safaris apart is the personal touch. Ronald was by my side from the moment I landed in Entebbe until my departure. His warmth, sense of humor, and deep knowledge about Uganda added a unique dimension to the trip. I felt like I was learning more from him during our travels than I could have from any online source.
What impressed me most was Ronald's flexibility. He seamlessly accommodated last-minute changes to my itinerary, providing me with the opportunity to explore more of Uganda. The accommodations he recommended were not only comfortable but also affordable, striking the perfect balance between quality and cost.
In just seven days, I fell in love with Uganda—a credit to Kajie Safaris' ability to showcase the country's beauty and diversity. Ronald's commitment to ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience has left an indelible mark on my memories. Without a doubt, when I return to Uganda, it will be with Kajie Safaris. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and memorable African adventure.

Incredible Safari experience, Knowledgable & friendly Guides
A friend recommended Kanje and we’re so glad he did! Amani & Iddi were our guide and driver and they did a great job - perfectly using a ton of their knowledge & skills to find the animals at the top of our list and teaching us a lot about the animals, culture, Swahili language, the country, the parks we visited and the ones located to the southern part of the country. They were also great friends ☺️ to Us. on the long days we spent in the parks. It was such an incredible experience, I don’t think you can go wrong with these incredible people.

Wonderfull family safari with Savannah Explores & Gerry
We, a Swiss family (2 adults / 3 kids), spent a wonderfull week with Savannah Explorers.
The organization of the tour with Micky was perfect.
At the airport, our guide Gerry waited for us and welcomed us heartly.
We loved the almost new safari car (Toyota Land cruiser) with the good seats and that we could go private as family.
We did the northern safari circuit. It was so beautifull (see pictures). The lodges are so nice and clean - all in excellent places!!!
At the tented lodges we loved the combination of nature and luxury.
Gerry, our guide was the best driver and a perfect guide for us and the kids. He always listend to our wishes and could fullfill all of them. He always was able to find the wild animals and was in contact with all the other cars to find the predators (lions, lepard, etc.). We enjoyed every minute of this week!!

Great 8 days in Kenya
Me and my mom spent great 8 days in Kenya with Meektrails Safaris.
The planning and communication before our arrival was smooth, Pauline was very responsive and provided answers to all my questions.
On the first day of Safari we were picked up from our hotel on the agreed time, greeted by Pauline, Daniel and our guide for the week - Anthony. Anthony made our safari experience great, he is a very positive person, provided us a lot of information about the plants and animals and made sure we see all the big 5 animals before the end of our tour.
The accommodation at Ziwa Bush Lodge can be highlighted as it felt luxurious, the rest of the lodges were fine as well for the mid-range category.
At the end of the safari we were dropped off at our hotel in Nairobi.
I can definitely recommend booking with Meektrails Safaris.

Comprehensive Tour Operator with Great Drivers
My husband and I along with a good friend and her husband had an eleven day safari and beach trip throughout Kenya. I went in knowing where I wanted to go mostly, and worked with Dennis at the front office. He was able to put together an itinerary that took into account what I had asked for, but also expanded it to address what my friends and husband would want to experience, considering this was their first time in Kenya and on safari. He put together a packed itinerary that hit so many things (Nairobi, Samburu, Aberdares, Naivasha, Mara and the Coast). We were always on the move with our driver, Alex. Alex was great - some amazing driving skills and good eyes. Also very sociable so always connecting with the other drivers to find the good spots and sharing perspective on life in Kenya.
The accommodations were great, the land cruiser was relatively comfortable and well stocked with water.
During the planning, Dennis was very accessible and communicative. He was willing to make small changes to the plans as I had some particular notions of what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go. Having Whats App downloaded allowed me to connect with the front office while we were traveling around Kenya, which was helpful when we were at the coast.
We greatly enjoyed working with Morningstar! The only issue I would mention is that if you have questions or concerns, speak up clearly and early. It's not a bad idea to review the itinerary with your driver/Morningstar upon arrival to make sure your understanding of what is included and what isn't is still the same and has been confirmed with the driver and the accommodations. Especially if you are going off the regular tourist track (out of the major parks).
There were a few communications transparency concerns where I think the office had everything under control, but plans had changed and we had not been updated. There were some miscommunications at the end between Morningstar and the accommodation, that seemed to have been based upon expectations and not confirmed commitments from the accommodations.
When I spoke up or contacted the office or mentioned something to Alex, a fix was often figured out (or at least they attempted to figure it out) but you need to speak up early if you have questions or concerns and don't make assumptions that just because something is stated on your itinerary, everyone involved is aware of what the initial travel itinerary was and is and has the same understanding of what's included and what isn't.
The experience we had for the money we paid was a great option and Alex was there and ready for us on time every day. He had a great energy and was flexible with our irregular requests (finding a pharmacy in Nanyuki, going to my old house in Nairobi, visiting Sarit Center/Westgate in Westlands.
