Excellent Tour Operator with Deep knowledge in Kenya
We were a group of 5 who booked our 4 night safari at Masai Mara with Asland Adventure Tours. The staff at Aslan, Anne and the driver Patrick were outstanding. Anne provided us with all the necessary details and answered our questions promptly and I would highly recommend this tour operator to anyone visiting Kenya. Our drive Patrick had a deep knowledge of the Masai Mara area and was able to show us so much wildlife. Having the right driver who knows the park is the key for a great experience.

“An exceptional safari company”
We've visited Tarangire, Ngorogoro Crater, Serengeti and Lake Manyara, we went and Monduli and enjoyed walking with maasai and my wife learnt to cook maasai food and kids learnt maasai words before ending with the trip in Zanzibar. It was a very well arranged trip! I reccomend this company to all.

Unprofessional & Liars
We booked a 10-day safari tour of the North including the main National Parks and a trekking from Empakai to Lake Natron. The very first day our rusty 4x4 had to be fixed. Ok. No problem. That happens. It was going to be fixed the same day. Next day we departed very late cause it had not been repaired. We arrive to campsite. Rain. Water seeped into our tents so our sleeping bags, mattresses got soaked... We complained and they were not changed until the 4th night!!! Meanwhile, more delays... We complained to the big boss (Mr. Nasoro - sorry if the spelling is wrong) for the delays. He'll do his best to solve it blah blah blah... Next day we arrive to Serengeti NP. Driver says he has not enough money to pay the entrance. Ok. Call your boss to solve it. He says that we have to pay ourselves. Same happen with Ngorongoro entrance. We spent more than 1 hour for the Boss to solve the problem. We paid. Later we found that it was intentional cause we have arranged with him that we will pay a little amount at the end of the trip. As you can imagine, that amount was exactly the money that we paid at Serengeti & Ngorongoro. So the thing is that we complain about the delays and the following days he creates a new problem that make us waste even more time. We were really furious. As for the trek, it was so badly organized that we had to pay to rescue part of their own stuff (cook, cooking material, etc...). We missed Lake Natron (the driver that had to pick us up to take us there was delayed..). We used some local guides for the trek. Really nice people. They were not getting paid by our staff. We almost had a fight so they got paid. They found the money to pay them miraculously. We did not trust them since we knew they were all liars. That last day, the Big Boss did not appear. He said he was in Dar. We complained about the money that we paid: the rescue of the staff, food expenses since cook and food were in the middle of nowhere... obviously he refused to pay us back. Not a single apologize. Later, the same staff, ashamed, told us that he was at home...
As you can see, we can't recommend this company. They made our trip a nightmare. Everyday there were delays and one lie after the other... And the way they treated the local guides was degrading.

Great service, excellent organisation and once in a lifetime experience!
We really enjoyed our safari trip with Flash Safaris to Serengeti, Ngorogoro, Tarengire and Arusha National Park. We spoke with Magda about our wishes and she gave us great advice about what parks to see. We even did a balloon safari over the Serengeti. Our guide was a former wildlife preservator from Serengeti and knew all the right spots to see animals (i.e. leopards; lions etc.) We had an amazing time and can recommend Flash Safaris to everyone!

Safari Planning Made Easy
My planning started a good eleven months before the trip. While I had the basic structure of the trip in mind, Willow from Planet Africa Safaris had many helpful recommendations and my dream trip was set to reality quickly. I was impressed on how fast she always responded to my every inquiry, as if my trip was the only one she was working on. The airline changed the international flight twice and each time Willow juggled many bookings to accommodate the new schedule. I was lucky that the airline did not change the schedule too wildly and, more importantly, I was lucky that Willow was the one orchestrating all the planning, bookings, flight schedule, and all the details I didn’t think of. On the trip, the logistics flowed smoothly as the Mara River flows and each stop offered new and different experiences: From bush experience at Rekero to solitude at Naboisho Conservancy, from equatorial forest canopy at Rubondo Island to the open plains at Namiri Plains. By the way, this was the second trip Planet Africa Safaris organised for me. And for my next Kenya and Tanzania trip, I will call Planet Africa Safaris, first and only.
