Professional, organised, knowledgable and friendly’
From the first communication till we were dropped off at the airport for our departure flights, we had an unforgettable experience!! George met all our requirements and Dallas, our guide, was outstanding. We visited the most beautiful places, slept in comfortable beds, ate like kings and queens and experienced everything we imagined and more. A bucketlist adventure came true because of them.

Exactly what we wished for
For a budget safari, this experience far exceeded our expectations. Fiona, the owner, was wonderful and maintained excellent communication throughout our trip, from before booking all the way to the end of the safari. She customized our itinerary to fit our specific needs, crafting a perfect journey tailored to what we were looking for. Amazingly, we spotted the Big 5 on the first day while traveling to our accommodation, before the safari had even officially begun! We had incredible wildlife encounters, including witnessing a cheetah hunting and killing its prey, hyenas and lions sharing a meal, and observing migrating wildebeest, among many others. Our driver Abdi was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure we saw everything we wanted, and made sure we had some fab pictures to come home with. The food at each accommodation was excellent, and the campsites and hotels Fiona selected were great (though it was cold in the mornings and evenings, and the showers were chilly, but that’s all part of the experience). If we were to go on another safari, we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Fiona again. This is the most perfect trip, which fit exactly in our budget and gave us everything we expected! X

Professionalism and seriousness
KILIMANJARO HEROES ADVENTURES was recommended to us by our friends who traveled with them in 2023. They themselves had been recommended by friends....We recommend KILI HEROES without any reservation.
For the trek we did the MACHAME route in 7 days.
They are very serious, professional and attach great importance to safety (which is essential for climbing KILI). The organization was perfect and they do everything to make us feel good:
- before the trip thanks to the very good communication with Evarist, who answered patiently and very quickly to our dozens of questions!
- during the stay, where the organization was perfect! our chief guide Mwinyi organized life on the camp perfectly. Thanks again to him and his team for all the attention during the trek!...
Safety is essential for them. For the climb Mwinyi perfectly managed the problem with one of our 3 daughters (19 to 23 years old), who had a problem related to the altitude at 5400m. He quickly made THE right decision and brought her back down immediately, thus ensuring her safety! thank you. The rest of the family was all the way up 🤩.
But apart from these "technical" aspects we loved the mood and the atmosphere on the camp during these 7 days. We built important bonds with the whole team: 16 porters, 1 cook and 3 guides: the chef Mwinyi, Glory and Calvin. Without them, all this would not have been possible! They are adorable and we feel nostalgic when we think back to their songs, their dances and all their attention to make us feel good physically and mentally!
We warmly recommend KILI HEROES and the team of guides Mwinyi, Glory and Calvin. They were the best! and made this trek a moment forever engraved in our memories.
We also chose KILI HEROES for the safari. Our guide Jamal was great! very respectful of the animals, very attentive and interesting.
He guided us perfectly well in the parks while trying as much as possible to isolate us from the other jeeps. The organization was perfect!
Thanks to the whole team.
See you next time we hope!

A Macknificent Family Adventure with Karen Blixen's Africa Tours!
Our family of four had an unforgettable safari experience in Kenya this August, thanks to Karen Blixen’s “Africa Tours & Journeys” now known as “ The Out Of Africa Experiences” . From the first inquiry about this adventure, to the final moments, every aspect was meticulously planned, showcasing the agency's professionalism and care for its clients. I am thrilled to say that the entire experience exceeded my expectations.
Wow! It's hard to express in words the professional, personable and attention to detail that was extended to me. I can't not say enough kind words about my African Safari Specialist Penina Onyando. Penina listened to all my wants and changes and never hesitated to oblige. Penina's
professionalism, kindness and responsiveness come across in every conversation. She made me feel so comfortable that I had no worries at all.
Patrick, our tour guide (driver), was simply outstanding as well. He picked us up from Nairobi and drove us out to the Masai Mara National Park. He was very pleasant and friendly and kept us entertained and amazed throughout the trip; sharing his deep knowledge of the wildlife and the local areas of Nairobi and Masai Mara. Patrick was very punctual but always very flexible. The safari jeep was comfortable and clean. For the duration of the Safari he was always available to us and attended to all of our needs.
We stayed at the Emayian Luxury Camp and it was wonderful. The accommodations were comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff were attentive and friendly.
We did the Hot Air Balloon Safari (Amazing), the Masai Mara village tour and the airport transfers back to Nairobi. Everything was excellent.
Overall, our experience with Africa Tours was incredible. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to have an exceptional safari experience in Kenya.
Thank you, Africa Tours for a truly memorable experience!

Great tailor-made trip
I recommend it 100%
Tailored to your possibilities!
It is the most flexible safari company I know, and I have done several trips like this.. The organization and the treatment are excellent.
The dedication and attention are worth mentioning, beyond the knowledge transmitted by the guides, both in English and Spanish, which is an added value.
We were able to choose parks and accommodations. As I say, "tailored"
It is the best "safari" I have done!
Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Baraka 5 stars guide
Remarkable experience thanks to our guide Baraka. He looked after us from day 1, very knowledgeable on all animals and guess what we got to see the big 5 in just 4 days. I had such hard time choosing the Safari tour but this one is by far the best decision. Thank you Baraka and chef Tito !

Excellent choice for customized Safaris
If you want to book one of the standard packages, I think any tour operator is fine. However we had many customizations we needed to make to our itinerary. We wanted to stay with specific lodges and we needed to shuffle the ordering of visiting them due to our flights. Pendo was excellent in working with us through each of our requests, and she managed to do it in a tight timeframe after our original flights needed to be changed. We managed to have an excellent time in Zanzibar and Tanzania

The best tour operator for Safai in Tanzania
Me and my husband went for a 4 days tour with Suricata and it was the best decision we have made. They are very professional since the day one when we were looking for information, they answered us very fast and clear with a proper information. Once we decided to book with them everything were smooth from the payment process to pre departure information until the pick up arrangement. On the arrival day they were also amazing, pick up on time with a good proper car - arrive to the hotel - hotel booked with clean big room and a good briefing of the tour we are about to do. Four days tour , we had the best guide, Barrakka, he was very professional with all the good knowledges of the safari and driving skills. Our four days went by so fast and it was amazing and memorable thanks to Barrakka and all the team from the office , the cooking teamamd cheft Tito and the accommodations preparing team- the foods we had every day were great considering that we are camping in the middle of National Park we still had a great cook clean meal, ( Big thanks to them for lunch we got a cooked meal served not just a snack box ) everytime we arrived at the camp the tent was there ready for us to jump in we don’t need to wait or make the tent ourself. Everything went perfectly until the last minute of our tour. I think i have said enough so you are deciding which safari tour you should go with - definitely Suricata. We loves every moment we spent on these days. It’s our 1st safari experience and we love it. 100% recommended !!

Great safari tour operator
From the moment our guide Abou greeted us at the airport, the excitement began, he was very funny and jovial. Our journey kicked off at the iconic Masai Mara, where thrilling game drives revealed lions, rhinos, buffalos, elephants, zebras, wildebeest, and even a leopard.
We visited also Nakuru an Amboseli and were enjoyed by all the landscapes and wildlife, Abou is a very good and humourfull guide, and a great photgrapher.
In Samburu, we were captivated by the rich, colorful culture, unique homesteads and warm hospitality. Dancing and jumping with the locals was a highlight. Abou knew the places very well and his knowledge and insight about wildlife was fascinating. The accommodations were cozy, and the entire trip was well organized. For an unforgettable safari experience, we wholeheartedly recommend Abou Safaris
