Amazing trip in Kenya
We booked a private Kenya tour with KWSS and had a great time there last month. Our driver/guide Ken was absolutely great! He took good care of us and showed us as much as possible. Mr Otieno was very patient and he arranged really nice accommodations and itinerary for us. We visited Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Bogoria and Masai Mara and each place is just beautiful. We recommend KWSS if you want a quality yet affordable trip.

What a wonderful trip!
Concluded our trip in a simple word: "perfect"! It's not easy to choose a safari company from so many of them, but Lucy won our trust with her friendly manner. Our skillful driver Simon, was very experienced and patience, we spent a pleasure 6 days with him. Serene safari is definitely recommended, they will provide you an impressive and unforgettable safari trip, just like us.

Very Great Experience
The tour guide and driver were very friendly and willing to answer any questions we had. Whenever we had a problem, it was resolved quickly and they accommodated all our needs. The car was comfortable and the camp sites were very enjoyable. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely want to do it again .

Flexible and easy to work with! Excellent service!
My family did an amazing 3 days-2 nights tour of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro national parks. We really appreciated that Love and Dove worked hard to answer all our concerns and to work within our budget. The guides were very friendly, professional and definitely made the trip a pleasure too. Happy that our children got to learn so much about the region! I will definitely travel with Love and Dove on my next safari!

Serengeti / Zanzibar Honeymoon
Alym was terrific to work with - he was able to accommodate our budget while also ensuring that we received great value for our money. In terms of the safari, the tour operator that he setup for us was knowledgeable, friendly, and an excellent driver! We saw just about every animal that the Serengeti has to offer (including the wildebeest crossing the Mara river and a lion hunt/kill). In terms of the resort, Blue Bay was spectacular - it was clean and beautifully appointed. Our expectations were entirely surpassed and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to work with Alym!

Review about Thornybush Game Reserve by Kanikoski
N'Kaya Lodge on the Thornybush Game Reserve gave us an informative, up-close game experience that we could not have matched on a self-drive safari. Our wildlife sightings were magnificent, encompassing every animal that we hoped to see. We couldn't have asked for more.

Review about Balule Nature Reserve by Kanikoski
As far as our game sightings at Balule were concerned, the elephants topped the bill. We had some very close, very powerful experiences with the beautiful animals on the reserve.

Excellent introduction to South African wildlife
We visited the Kruger National Park with a guide, as part of a more extensive South African safari holiday. Our experience at the Kruger set us up very nicely for the rest of our trip, as it provided us with a relatively 'soft' start in viewing the animals and birdlife from the safety and comfort of an air-conditioned car. Our game sightings were excellent, with up-to-date local information points helping us to make and photograph some wonderful wildlife encounters. Beyond the 'big five', much of the pleasure was in time spent close-up with 'common' animals such as zebras, and although I'm not a 'birder' as such, we were also guided into spotting a varied selection of colourful and fascinating birdlife. The Kruger National Park may not be sufficient for a whole safari holiday, but it is definitely an excellent way to get accustomed to some of the wildlife you may see elsewhere in South Africa.

Incredible Animal Encounters In A Wild and Wonderful Country
In April of this year my 76 year old mother and I vacationed in Namibia for three weeks. I chose Namibia because I am a hobbyist photographer and wanted to visit the Namib desert and the Himba tribal lands. Mom came along because she wanted to see African wildlife in their natural habitat.
April was a wonderful time to visit Etosha, because there were many baby animals out and about (we saw baby lion, zebra, giraffe, elephant, warthog, wildebeest, kudu, hartebeest, springbok, impala). The grasses and vegetation were still green, but just turning into gold (the "blonde" season for Namibia) so the beauty of the landscape and the vistas was truly breathtaking at every turn.

Review about South Africa by Kanikoski
As first-time safari-goers, South Africa was an excellent choice of destination for us. We got a taste of both luxury lodges and more 'earthy' accommodation, always with up-close wildlife experiences. We were treated to top-class hospitality all the way through. We booked and travelled with On Track Safaris and felt good about being in touch with local conservation efforts.
