Fantastic!!! Got to see so many animals and our driver Jackson was amazing!
My partner and I arranged to do our safari while still in Australia and even though we weren't in Africa yet David was very very helpful with all our questions even if they weren't about the safari itself! The hotel we stayed in the night before arranged by David was very nice too! All in all we were very sad to finish the tour and can't wait to come back and visit!!

An unforgettable 14 day Best of South Africa, Swaziland and Lesotho (Craigs Fav)
Communication was quick and effective.
We experienced everything we wished for. A fantastic Guide, nothing was too much effort, outstanding knowledge and great food.
The Drakensberg mountains was our favorite highlight of the tour and we loved the Kruger Park.
I would highly recommend Southern African Tours, for their skill and expertise.
We will definately book our next holiday with them.

Great tour, excellent guide
My wife and I have traveled to a lot of different countries, but this excursion is by far our favorite. Obviously, going to Kruger Park is great, but what made it extraordinary was our guide Rhys. Rhys has a deep understanding of the animals and is extremely passionate about them and his job. Because of this, we were able to see a lot more than the other tours. He has an incredible eye to spot animals that are far away, then have an understanding of where they are going. This is how we were able to watch two Cheetahs walk 5 feet in front of our car. It was amazing. I cannot say enough great things about Rhys and his company. I would highly advise to not do a group tour on these trips. The personal attention we got was incredible. He actually cooked for us the whole trip, and he's not too shabby with the grill (braai). It was great. Thanks Rhys.

On of the best National Reserves in Kenya!
One of the best places I have been in Kenya in 31 years of traveling around Kenya! The wildlife is prefuse and qutie friendly and accustomed to vehicles. The roads are fine as far as park roads go and the river is magnificent! We stayed at the nicest campsite under huge old acacia trees with a very helpful campsite attendant who much to our amazement was able to source cold beers and fresh bread and milk from out of thin air.
The drive to Samburu from Nairobi is an easy one, there is a very good cafe mid-way just before Nanyuki - One Stop Cafe opposite Barneys airfield. Camping and park fee's for what the experience is worth should be much higher as it is in almost all Kenyan parks.
If you want to see the South of the North of Kenya - Samburu is your park - if you dont like camping, Elephant Bedroom Camp is the best place to stay by a mile.

Review about Kenya by Cookswell Jikos
Having lived here and met thousands of people from all over the world who have saved for years for a 2 week holiday to Kenya - I am very happy to have been able to travel all over the country with my tree planting job and validate just why so many people come to visit this country. Its simply breathtaking!
