Amazing!
I got to know lenchada safari by my friend that came on his trip in feb. So I knew what To expect. I was part of the 5 day trip and We saw all the animals that we wanted to see. I want to thank Daniel who picked me up from my hotel for his friendliness, Joshua our driver/guide for giving us such an amazing experience, sharing your knowledge with us and thank you for the hard work! Also Stan the intern that came with us, thank you for making us feel welcome and for telling us so many jokes! Overall I think anyone thinking of choosing this tour should just do it.

The safari was well planned and I did not have to worry about anything. The guide was very kind and knowledgable. In general the tour was also flexible. So great experience,will definitely recommend to anyone.

Small company with a very dedicated owner
Paul, the owner of the company, really puts a LOT of effort into planning your safari and make the best out of your stay. The safari itself was amazing and the accommodations fully met/exceeded our expectations. Our driver was very knowledgable, however, he made it very clear that he would rather be with his family (it was around Christmas time). We of course understand this but this put us in a very uncomfortable situation. He only answered our questions but did not tell us a lot by himself. We also booked a beach vacation on Zanzibar with Tanzania Roadside Expedition after our safari. This part we wouldn't book again with them as we had a very unpleasant experience in the hotel booked for us (but Paul was again VERY helpful).
All in all we absolutely loved our experience and think it is very rare that someone puts as much effort into client servicing as Paul does. It was not "perfect" due to some things as listed below but your value for money is great and you sure will have a great vacation if you book with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions.

Excellent VFM and exceptional safari guide
Special thanks to Joseph Motokaa, the best safari guide in the business - dont ask me how he knows, he just knows.While all the other guides are rushing around like crazy he quietly does his job and as a result we got to see things others can only dream about. He's a real professional.

They are cheap for a reason
We book a budget 4 day safari with Bobby Tours, mainly based on the price. At the time I couldn't find much about them in the way of reviews on the internet but what I could find was ok. Anyway we turn up at the office ready for departure only to be told that we hadn't transferred enough money when we did our bank transfer. I had taken a copy of the paperwork showing we had transferred the exact amount they quoted but they wouldn't budge, so in the end we ended up pay about 100 dollars extra. Not a good start.
The car was old, had no working seatbelts, no windscreen wipers (not ideal when speeding down a motorway in torrential rain to the airport) broke down twice, the poor driver had to fix it both times. The tents were old, musty, but adequate I suppose.
The first night we stayed at a 'Bobby Tours' camp site. we were driven well away from the main strip where everyone else seemed to be staying to this deserted field, we were the only ones staying at this site, ran by a family sat there playing with machetes and looking like they wanted to kill us, not a relaxing night at all. Thankfully the next night was at a campsite where many others were staying too so we felt a lot more comfortable.
The driver was fine, as was the chef. Management and equipment not fine.

Nice experience in Samburu and Tsavo East
Our experience with KT & Safari was very good. We booked a three day safari in Amboseli and Tsavo East. Kindly we were able to change the route so that we could start in Nairobi (with a short train ride for which Dicky arranged tickets for us). Normally, start and end would be in Mombasa
The organization and communication went great and we are very satisfied! The safari is great, we saw many animals and felt comfortable. Many thanks to Dicky and KT & Safari, for the nice experience.

Naphtally goes the extra mile to make sure his clients are provided with a safari that meets their expectations and budget. He even came into his office late on a Sunday just to meet with us and plan our last minute booking. He was also accessible and professional throughout our entire adventure, including meeting with us when we got back to hear our feedback. Naphtally is thoughtful and is truly interested in making his client's safari adventure the best that it can be!
Our driver and guide, Paul, is highly experienced. He knows the parks and where the animals and most beautiful scenery can be found. Paul also has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the animals, birds and plants of the region. There wasn't a question he couldn't answer. Paul was always cheerful and considerate. He'll tell you he loves his job and it shows!
We did a six night/seven day safari through Samburu National Park, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara. This itinerary was perfect for us because we got to enjoy the beauty and animals of Kenya from north to south in different habitats. We did a budget safari and were very happy with our basic accommodations. All of the facilities were clean, we had many good meals and slept well. In Samburu the food was outstanding! There was a young chef, Preston, who customized all of our meals. He was one of the highlights of our adventure.
We saw an amazing variety of wildlife on our safari -- all the Big Five and more!
Don't hesitate to use World Escapes & Adventure Travel, especially if you're on a budget. They will work hard to provide you with a great experience!

Amazing safari tour in Selous
We went to two-day safari in Selous and the experience was amazing! All was well-organized and our guide Rami was fabulous. We managed to see a lot of animals. Many zebras, graffe, elephants, lions, wildbeests, monkeys and even a hippo.
It was great experience! Thanks!
