Unforgetable experience
Our safari in Tanzania was an incredible and amazing experience and a dream come true. My friends and me were able to feel part of the wildlife and contemplate how the animals coexist in their habitat. Our guide Peter made the difference, he conveyed self-confidence and security, both in the driving and in any eventuality. He explained to us many curiosities about the fauna, culture and behavior of animals. He also kept us awake testing us with some questions and also he brought a lot of laughter and a good atmosphere. Wishing to be able to repeat the experience and for sure I'll choose Peter again.

nice experience to mikumi national park
The 2 day safari trip to mikumi was very nice and a very beautiful experience for us. Mr widman was always very kind and always available on whatsapp. The trip was well organized and everything was well planned. The drive to the safari and the game drives was smooth and they showed us everything and explained everything. The resort was also very enjoyable. Lunches and water was included and the driver even bought us bananas and sugar cane.

Kruger in 5 days
We are very impressed with Mmilo and Norman in particular. He was extremely knowledgeable about the location, found us great lodges to stay at in spite of heavy demand in August. Norman is exceptionally responsive. For example, our flights got delayed and we had to change our plans significantly. I called him in his middle of the night from the Chicago airport. He was extremely understanding and adapted to the situation beautifully. When we landed, our immigration at Johannesburg was long; he waited patiently outside for a couple of hours. When we exited immigration, Norman was extremely friendly with a case of water; it was great to see a friendly person in a foreign land. Of course, his planning of the lodges for what we wanted was exceptional. I would also like to give a great review on Wilhem, our driver and guide from Johannesburg to Kruger. He is extremely knowledgeable about all things Africa. And we were impressed that he runs a marathon in 3 hours 15 mins. Overall, I give these guys 10/10. Thanks, Norman!

Fantastic experience
We had a fantastic experience. Firiki, the guide, was amazing. He did everything to make us feel safe and happy. The accommodation at the park had everything we needed. We wanted to see the sunrise in the park and Firiki took us there at the right time. We were lucky enough to find the lions at the meal time, just after hunting. A lifetime experience! I highly recommend Kima safari.

Excellent guides, itinerary , and value
The staff at Shadows tailored our itinerary perfectly, including a relaxing stay in Arusha, 5 amazing safari days in Tarangire Nat'l Park, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater, and a night to experience the Massai life. Guides Dickson and Loma are encyclopedias of knowledge, incredibly safe and efficient drivers, and helpful and thoughtful.
Asante sana.

Mount Kenya trekking was a blast
We hiked the Mount Kenya with Kentau Safaris and were absolutely satisfied with the organization and execution. The manager Dominic Mwata was very responsive, competent and helpful in answering all our questions upfront and organized a powerful and experienced team that made the trip were convenient and an unforgettable breathtaking event. I can highly recommend this small and growing outdoor company and we already explored future trips with Dominic. Thumbs up!

Excellent tour operator
"The pavillion safaris and tours " is a very good tour operator. Specially, Peter, who is responsible for managing, is very helpful and supportive during the safari. He is available at all times for any kind of help.

Best safari experience with amazing guide
giraffes, zebras, hippos, monkeys, impalas, worthog, buffalos and even lions). What we really appreciated was that Fikiri seemed to be knowledgeable about where we can spot certain animals and he also explained a few details about how they live.
We got to our hotel at sunset and proceeded to check in and have some dinner. We spent a bit of time just talking to Fikiri and he was opened to our suggestions for the next day.
The second day was perfect, we woke up early and had another drive in the safari. We had a lovely morning together and again found Fikiri's knowledge of the park to be very helpful in spotting the animals.
After breakfast, we proceed on our way back to Dar El Salam and had a couple of stops and a lunch break
Overall this was a lovely experience and we appreciated:
The knowledge of our guide (of the park and just general conversation)
The spots we stopped for food were clean, the food was good and the bathrooms were clean
The hospitality was amazing. Everyone was happy to help us and kind
The national park itself and it's beauty
I'd highly recommend it as an experience

Dickson is the best!
The safari was amazing! Our driver was very kind and knew much about the animals.We were all happy to see everything and to be explained about the animals and the nature!
Really enjoyable Kenyan experience although not all smooth sailing
We had a wonderful time in Kenya and we had a truly fantastic guide in Andrew that took us to the Mara and to Naivasha- we would genuinely have enjoyed to have been with him for longer. We enjoyed the tour that had been arranged for us and our friends by William although sadly at the very last minute our accomodation was changed and having been very excited about where we were going to, suddenly this all changed. The new lodge was ok but we would have preferred the original option.
The coast hotel that he booked us was excellent.
