Agama 5 day safari
We've just come home from an amazing 5-day private safari. It was a very pleasant journey. Our guide Samson was very nice and knew everything about nature and all the animals we have seen. The guide and cook also provided great service and nice meals, always asking if we were satisfied or needed anything else. We tasted real African food, which gave the safari an extra dimension. We would definitely recommend Agama to our friends, because it's a great safari for a very reasonable price.
An excellent adventure...
I wish to thank Mwema Africa Safaris director Mr. Charles Muema for his hospitality, he helped us a great deal to plan our trip, his correspondence and details were up to standard. i really appreciated
Our 4 days trip to Mombasa was a real adventure and we really had a lot of fun with my daughter and would wish to visit once more
I would recommend the tour operator to any traveler wishing to travel within East Africa
Best Regards

Excellent Safari by Peter and his crew!
Peter answered possibly over 50 emails to customize our trip to our liking. He was always very prompt with his responses which were detailed and insightful. We had a memorable and excellent trip. Everything went smoothly. His suggestions were great. Martin was an excellent guide. I would go back to him for a trip to Tanzania or Uganda in the future. We went to Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsave East and West, Naivasha and Nakuru.

A great tour of South Africa, wildlife, bush, scenery, peoples and cultures.
From our first contact to our last farewell, our safari exceeded our expectations in every way. Cuan could not have been more helpful in adjusting the 15-day Surprise Safari to meet our extra plans before and after as well as our choice of the options on safari. The little Merc bus was a very comfortable way to travel. Our guide, Chris, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his home country, with a pleasant touch of humour, and our driver, Robbie, added his knowledge and helpfulness, especially in the Cape area. Accommodation, including meals, was consistently better than expected. We were lucky in the range of wildlife we saw, but the first unexpected bonus was the enthusiastic welcome we enjoyed wherever we visited the local people, who obviously value their local cultures, showing that in their dancing and singing. The second bonus was the introduction to modern South Africa, its past and its efforts to rebuild. For first time visitors like us, we could not have enjoyed a better introduction to all the facets of South Africa today nor received better value.

Brilliant Safari Tour in Uganda
Matoke Tours tailor made our safari tour to our requirements. We were impressed with their response time and the package was comprehensive and well planned. Our guide and driver Caleb really ensured we had the most amazing time. He was particularly attentive and had an amazing amount of knowledge on the wildlife, ugandan culture and geography of the land which he happily share with us. we would highly reccommend Matoke tours and particularly our guide Caleb for an exceptional safari experience.

Our Safari was a trip of a lifetime, greatly thanks to these guys
Just to add some context, my wife and I have been traveling the world for the last years and quite frankly we were overwhelmed at first with all the planning required for our first safari trip to Africa.
After sorting the top 10 user reviewed Safari companies in Tripadvisor and correlating with Tanzanian national rankings, we did a second filter based on cost and ended with top 3 based on our budget. Let me clarify that we were looking for private mid tier safari, so no over the top fancy shenanigans.
After emailing them with our desired itinerary, the company It Started in Africa quickly rose to the top in terms of responsiveness and flexibility to accommodate our needs and wishes. Joao Oliveira was simply fantastic, he made sure to understand our trip and location objectives and then provided suggestions to end up with an amazing customized itinerary with private guide for me and my wife, greatly diminishing the stress of safari planning and budgeting, adjusting to our every need, even to our changes throughout the journey itself.
They literally took care of everything, from picking us up from the airport, hotel suggestion according to budget needs as well as lodge/tented camp reservations, park entrances and internal flights. As soon as we got there, they sent a representative to review itinerary, we had some last minute changes which were 100% accommodated.
All I can say is that our Safari was a magical experience, exceeding every expectation. We ended up cruising through Tarangire, Manyara, Serengneti and Ngorongoro with our guide Allen, who was simply fantastic, friendly, knowledgable of the culture, flora and fauna, truly excited to show his country and culture, and also had an amazing eye for locating all the animals in the most obscure places. I am happy to say that we have remained in touch since then. Needless to say we were captivated by Africa, the sights, scenic landscapes, animals, food and most importantly the people and their happiness for life.
If/ When we go back to Tanzania to explore the corners that we missed, we will certainly use the same company and of course the same guide as they made sure our first venture into Africa was absolutely amazing and left us with the thirst to explore such a magical place.

Excellent safari, friendly staff, knowledgeable guides, great value for money
We were a group of 11 volunteers working in Tanzania for a month, looking to go on safari while we were out. We heard about Savannah discovery by chance through word of mouth. They were great sending all the information we needed in plenty of time. They were great in finding out the best prices for us and helped us work out where to go. The cars were extremely comfortable and we were picked up at locations that were very convenient for us. As we were a party of 11 we needed 2 cars so we had 2 guides/drivers, both guides were extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Overall it was a brilliant experience that I am sure none of us will forget for a long time.

Widen your perspective!
After spending a relaxing week in Zanzibar, the Safari experience in Serengeti provided us to widen our perspective. We did not suffer from anything during the safari thanks to Yona. He was a great guide and a great driver. Everything was perfect.
Me and Selin (my wife) appreciate your organization and the effort.
