Outstanding experience, they exceeded my expectations
I had an amazing experience with Peter, Nicholas and David. From the beggining they caught the idea of what I wanted, eventhough it was my first safari and I didn't have a clear idea of what I would enjoy. They were super friendly and nice and did their best to make me feel confortable and at home, something really important when you spend so many hours together. All in all, I can recommend them at a 100% and It's something that all their clients do as I contacted them because a friend with experience in safaris recommended them.

Excellent!
We were collected from the airport on time. The vehicle was clean and in good condition. Jeremy was very friendly and willing to assist us with anything. Overall we were very happy and would highly recommend them.

Excellent service!! I have already booked another holiday in December.
Their communication, service, was amazing and what I liked most is the way they keep time.

Nzuri sana Safari!
Matata is fun, kind and VERY knowledgeable about the fauna (especially around birds!), as well as a great driver!
We vowed with my partner never to go back to a zoo after seeing natural wildlife up close. Matata knew every centimetre of the Morogoro and Mikumi, knew all about the animals' schedules and behaviours so discovering these wonderful beings was also accompanied with lots of information about them, which made the whole trip incredibly interesting. The reserves we visited, the hotels we stayed in, the food we ate, the people we met, made the experience even more special.
We kept a piece of Tanzania in our hearts, and thanks to Matata we want to go back and explore more of this wonderful country with him.
Maisha marefu rafiki!

Highly recommended!
We booked a 6-day safari trip and were offered an extra complimentary night in Nairobi. Since our flight arrived in the early morning hours, Sylvester and his team sorted out an early check in for us and then showed us around Nairobi and surrounding areas.
Next day we were introduced to our safari guide and driver Antony. Antony is very friendly, talkative and easy going person, he always pointed out random facts along the way and shared a lot of knowledge about Kenyan culture, animals, nature and generally anything interesting that we came across. He was great in selecting routes and spotting the wildlife and also avoiding the traffic.
We were driven around in a powerful but comfortable Land cruiser. I’m happy I booked a private safari. Being only two of us in the Land cruiser we were flexible with planning our days and game drives and also had plenty of space to move around while standing up and watching the animals. Some other vehicles we met along the way looked pretty rammed. We were also booked into beautiful lodges during our stay.
One of the accommodations was facing some connectivity problems but Sylvester promptly managed to re-book us to a different property the next day.
The communication was great throughout the whole booking process. We had to cancel our initial booking for Oct 2020 due to passport issues, however, that was not an issue for Seven by Far and we rescheduled for Sept 2021 with no problems whatsoever. Also, we needed to have a negative PCR test for our flight back home, it was conveniently arranged to be taken in our lodge in Maasai Mara by a mobile unit on our last night in the park, so the results were ready in time for our flight.
Overall, we had an amazing safari trip to Kenya. Big thank you to Sylvester for organising the trip and to Antony, our guide, for being amazing and looking after us the whole time.
Hakuna matata indeed :)

Izeikiel (and Anocely) were perfection, and we will recommend them to anyone and everyone.
Start to finish the experience was executed perfectly. Paul was attentive to our needs and was fast to respond to itinerary changes and date changes and was warm and hospitable.
We were lucky to have Izeikiel as our guide and Anocely join us as well. Start to finish they were informative and eager for us to have the best experience. We always felt cared for and it felt like a team of friends rather than two strangers. Every detail of the trip was made special and catered to our dream trip. On day one we saw a leopard and by the time we left we were lucky to see all top five (save the rhino). The trip was so special that we are planning to go back and do it all over again with the same team (and this time see a rhino:). Don’t hesitate to book with Roadside. Was a trip we will never forget.

Awesome safari
It was a fantastic safari we had courtesy of Nitarudi Afrika Safaris. They made arrangements from end to end and our bit was only to go on holiday and enjoy ourselves! The choice of hotel was great, with friendly staff, really good food and memorable game drives. This is not to forget that Nitarudi helped to negotiate pocket friendly rates. As their name Nitarudi suggests (I’ll come back in Swahili), we will certainly be back to Nitarudi to arrange for another safari.

A Dream Come True
After changing our wedding twice because of COVID we finally were able to do it. We were very nervous to do our Honeymoon right after the wedding because of COVID restrictions, but Shikwaru made everything possible.
They were SUPER communicative before we booked (we exchanged like 20 emails prior to our arrival). We had 8 amazing days with them, since minute one everything was arranged. They picked us up at the airport, they sent us the itinerary on advance, they gave us recommendations of what to wear for the excursions, how much money to pay for tips for the locals, they have all the knowledge of the country, the people, the culture, the animals and the hotel selection was amazing.
We did hiking, safari, exploring, elephant experience, and surprise private dinners. All the details of the trip made us feel so special.
My favorite memory of my honeymoon that will last forever was in a lodge that Shikwaru chose for us, my husband and I looking at the stars from our glamping bathtub listening to Hippos, an incredible experience.
I want all my trips to be with Shikwaru!!! I wish they were all over the world! I would book my honeymoon with them 100 times more! And they speak Spanish for me, being a Mexican with an American husband made everything super easy!
