Professional and enjoyable
The initial communication was excellent - very quick and clear. Upon arrival in Dar es Salaam we were met at the agrees time and everything was explained to us. The following morning our driver was there on time to meet us. He was very friendly and well informed, and always tried to give us the very best experience.

Great first safari experience at a fair price (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru + Amboseli NP)
Hi there,
My journey did not start so well as I had a flight delay of 24h in Paris.
But Robert helped me to join my friend later, that was much appreciated.
Karibu Safaris run daily tours and have a flexible tour system where they put together new groups for each tour part if necessary.
The drivers were good. Especially Arony was great, had a lot of knowledge and experience and was fun to drive with.
The accommodation was basic but ok.
Thank you for the great trip, I enjoyed it very much, saw a lot of animals and of course the big 5.
I will definitely be back to Kenia for another safari!
Cheers

Right from first contact we enjoyed an as professional as pleasant treatment with a personal touch.
As an experienced world traveller for business as well as for leisure I‘d quite high expectations from the start. The Five Stars Tours & Safaris professional operators fulfilled all their promises regarding organisation, realisation, safety and personal care to the expected prime standards. The charge for their services and all the booked travel items was absolutely justified. Their almost friendship-like way of dealing with their clients came as a welcomed bonus.

BEST SERVICES AND VALUE FOR MONEY
We booked our Kilimanjaro Climb and Safari with Shika Tours and Safaris, everything was well arranged from the first approach to the date Of arrival, Manase the owner of the company came to pick us up from the Airport to the Hotel in Moshi, this guy is a such a wonderful man very helpful and supportive as well, he gave us all the information we wanted for Kili Climb and even convinced as to take a safari after the climb.
The Team was so helpful and very knowledgeable about the country and all the activities they offering.
Our mountain guide and Safari guides both ware so amazing and very knowledgeable as well.
We really recommend Shika Tours and Safaris this is the best Company to choose.

Overall excellent tour
It was a largely faultless trip - there were a few minor issues, but nothing major. Largely excellent communication, the roof top tent was really comfy, the sites were great and myself and my friend had a great time.

Sumptuous Namibian Holiday
We literally did not have to worry about a thing on our holiday to Namibia. Everything was seamlessly planned and executed. We loved our lodges and the Namibian guides. The tour company was extremely responsive, even hiring us a private charter flight when there was some confusion regarding activities promised in our itinerary. I would definitely recommend this tour company, as it made the trip completely stress free and permitted us to really enjoy what Namibia has to offer.

4 day 3 night safari - Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater
My boyfriend and I are budget world travelers and booked our safari through Carlson.
Carlson went extremely above and beyond all expectations. He spoke directly with our Kilimanjaro trek guides to arrange a pickup for my boyfriend and me from Moshi to Arusha. He and Oliva picked us up in their private car and drove us to the tourist inn hotel which had great WiFi, excellent vegan food, and hot water. He picked us up the next morning, arranged for our bags to be held in the office, and got us in the car with a few other travelers to start the safari since we joined a group. He surprised us with 4 bottles of wine and some vegan snacks since he wouldn’t be joining us on the safari because he runs things back in Arusha. We joined a group and camped. The guide was very knowledgeable and we were so lucky to see everything you could hope to see on a safari! We saw the big 5 as well as a lion hunt! Our guide was very accommodating and would drive as close to the animals as possible and even changed his itinerary around when we said we’d like to try to see more cats. The vehicle was very well kept and although we got a flat tire at the end Of day 2 it was fixed in no time and was ready to go by morning. All vegan meals were accommodated and we were dropped off at the tourist inn hotel after the safari where Carlson and Oliva surprised us with custom made sandals and an African skirt!! The next morning Carlson drove us to the airport for our flight to mafia island (and he set us up with a friend of his for accommodation and whale shark swimming) and even offered to come pick us back up when he found out our flight had been cancelled.
I would HIGHLY recommend Carlson for your safari. He is so kind and truly values your business. He is honest and extremely hardworking and was truly a joy to work with! Oliva is great too and so sweet - hopefully you can meet her too!!

Highly recommend to travel with Planet Reserve . This’s a dedicated, customer care& timely operator
Highly recommend to travel with Planet Reserve . This is a dedicated, good customer care and timely operator.
I had a one day group trip to Ngorongoro Crater with this operator on 26th December 2018. That was holiday season, and I booked quite late, only 1 day before the departure. But The Planet Reserve tried their best to find a place for me while other operators offered trip on a much later day or with high price for single tourist only. Thanks to this operator, I had an amazing safari in the famous heaven Ngorongoro Crater.
