Fantastic - made for an unforgettable family adventure!
Last year, we booked a 5-day safari covering Amboseli, Tsavo East & West, and Taita Hills for our family of six, and we had the pleasure of enjoying a private land cruiser for the entire journey.
From the start, Charles was incredibly responsive and crafted a fantastic itinerary tailored to our needs.
Our tour guide, Patrick, was the highlight of our trip—he deserves a full 5 stars. His extensive knowledge, dedication to finding the best game views, and warm, engaging personality made the entire experience truly memorable.
However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind when booking:
As noted by others, the quality of accommodations varied. While one lodge offered a unique leopard experience, the room itself was too uncomfortable for a good night's sleep. Given the long days of travel and game drives, we found that restful sleep was essential.
Additionally, although the itinerary mentioned "time at leisure" at the lodges, in reality, there was little downtime between lunch and the evening game drives. Unless you plan to stay in one location for a couple of days to truly unwind, I recommend prioritizing accommodation comfort over amenities like pools.
Despite these minor points, the trip was absolutely incredible and one we will cherish forever!

Shaba lodge tour
Luxe by Mulanda had me on a perfect vacation to Shaba reserve. They were very clear and precise, quick in communication. I remember running late and they called just to make sure we got on time. I loved everything about this Safari. And you definitely are my plug for safaris. Thank you greatly.

Connoisseurs of land, animals, nature and guests
The two of us booked 7 days with 4 national parks. The program was individually tailored by Bobbytour Chief Ali to our wishes: lots of time in parks, simple accommodation, own guide. It was exactly the right decision! It should be 3 nights Serengeti (we had public camp). It takes time to observe the animals and be in the right place at certain times. And we need a guide who knows these places and gets involved with us as guests and who recognizes, openly discusses and enables our wishes and interests. Leonard was that in every way. In summary: reliable, communicative, neat, punctual, at eye level, sympathetic and empathetic, extremely competent. Thank you! Our own cook, who took care of and host us in the camps, was also very nice and professional. We were amazed at what "Chef Yussuf" could conjure up on the simple equipment. Everything is freshly prepared and of the highest quality. Safari costs a lot of money, but the entrances to the parks make up a significant part and it is worth investing in cook, guide and organization (e.g. safety of the off-road vehicle). Bobbytours is a local provider with more experience and more favorable conditions than many competitors. Clear recommendation!
Dan's a very polite and friendly guide! He's professional about the tour.
I was having great fun traveling with Dan. He's friendly and polite, knows how to cheer guests up when there's long way to drive. He's happy to listen to guests request, so I took really good photos! Thank you Dan, I recommend him to take your for an amazing Kenya tour.

Great value 3 day safari
Had a great experience with Tall Masai. Very good communication with Benson throughout and helped me tailor the tour to my budget.
The accommodation at AA Lodge was great, staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful, and the food selection was good.
The safari experience itself was amazing, the Masai Mara is beautiful and my guide Derrick and his colleague Dan were brilliant, very happy and knowledgeable and made the experience even better.

Just amazing
We just came back from a 14 day tour in Rwanda and Uganda. Our family of 5 had an amazing experience organized by Elvis. He managed our requests very well and we got the best out of our trip. We had the best guides with first Samuel (in Rwanda) and second Samuel in Uganda. We loved all of it and had on of the best trips ever. A special shout out to Samuel who did everything to make Uganda the most special Safari with seeing Gorillas, Chimpanzees and so much other wildlife. Thanks Lulu, we will be back!

Amazing honeymoon experience
From the moment I booked our “private honeymoon safari”, Mohamed was always on hand to answer any questions and provide information as required.
We arrived in Arusha 3 nights prior to our safari and Mohamed organised transport to pick us up from the airport. This was a great service and we didn’t expect it considering we were arriving early. We were also offered transport anywhere around Arusha during our time there.
Our safari was AMAZING, best experience and a great start to our honeymoon. Our guide Omary, was fabulous, he done his best to find us the big five & ugly five along with many other animals. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!!
Our accommodation during our stay was lovely, our favourite being the Marera Valley lodge. It was just breathtaking. All the meals provided by the accommodation (including lunchboxes for during the day when on safari) were delicious.
Big thanks to Omary & the rest of the team. We would recommend yourselves to anyone!

Brilliant and reliable Safari tour operator in Tanzania
We have bene on a 5 days Safari tour organizer by African Polecat Safaris: days 1-2 in North Serengeti, day 3 in Centrale Serengeti, day 4 in Ngorongoro and day 5 in Tarangire. We had a great experience overall, all the resorts were high standard and great quality. We had a jeep entirely for us (we were 3 persons) and our guide Emmanuel was outstanding: nice, knowledgeable, friendly. When we returned ti Arusha he introduced is to his family and took the initiative to bring us to a waterfall in Mount Meru - highly recommended. Ibrahim (the main contact at African Polecat) is kind and smart and always responds quickly to requests - via WhatsApp which Is very efficient. Overall a great experience and I will definitely recommend African Polecat to all my friends.

Excellent and professional service，meet all my needs well，I highly recommend
Super Eagles provided me with an extremely wonderful journey. It met all my expectations for this trip. Daisy patiently answered all kinds of my questions in the early stage and well addressed all my customization demands. Driver Wilson is very professional. He took us to see almost all the animals we wanted to see and answered various knowledge about animals. In short, this is a very wonderful trip. Super Eagles has first-class service. I strongly recommend this company.
