An excellent week in the Masai Mara.
We spent a week on safari in the Masai Mara and from being picked up at the airport to being delivered back to the airport everything flowed seamlessly. Our safari guide " George " was marvellous and we saw all we wanted including Black Rhino and a leopard carrying a kill unconcerned by how close we were to it. His knowledge was good and he involved us in everything he did. I would strongly recommend CK to any prospective safari goer.

Review about Tanzania by gordopuggy
Tanzania, and the safari operators we used or came across, were all very carefully involved in protecting their natural resources. Those controls and rules are necessary to protect what they have, which is stunning. We heard stories of wealthy tourists sometimes trying to pay drivers to break those rules - drive off road closer to the animals, or let guests out on foot to get closer, for example - but we saw none of it being allowed.

Review about South Africa by lollipop_lass
Plenty of National Parks with accommodation, lots of private game parks with luxury accommodation. Travel is easy with world class airports, long distance buses and plenty of car hire available. South Africa is very proud of its conservation/wildlife facilities ... And rightly so.

Very special SA safari experience vacation
Ulusaba is hard to fault. Arriving at the reserve's own airstrip via light plane was very special. The location, the activities and the people were outstanding. We visited during the SA summer, but despite this the game spotting was plentiful and, for first time safari-goers, very exciting. Ulusaba offers a compelling mix of beautiful surroundings, luxury accommodation and F&B, and a genuinely engaged and knowledgeable staff and safari team. Highly recommended.

Review about Uganda by Rolf Lax
Beautiful landscape, nice people, ok food.
Our main event was to see the Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi and so we did.
its a great scene especially considering its the longest lake on desert.
Along lake Turkana, there is a unique place called Eliye springs. there is a spring with very clean water that drains its waters into lake Turkana- just 50 meters away. There are two lodges where we usually sleep over. Swimming in the waters on a hot day is a great experience.

Very good service
John and his team were very responsive. We had some problems along the way with our rental, and they worked with us and took care of everything we needed. The support was the key part for me - I would gladly rent again from him. I did not do a full package tour with him, but John and his team are professional and responsible - if they promise something, it will get done, and if there are problems, they will fix them.

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by seltzca
The wildlife viewing was great! However, the large number of tourists that visit Lake Nakuru has attracted other primates who might want to steal your lunch. Be very careful with your belongings!

7 Day 6 Night Safari (Samburu, Mt. Kenya, Nakuru, Masai mara)
Excellent and personalized service, from pick-up, all the way to drop off. Our guide, Emmanuel, was knowledgeable and went the extra mile to make sure we saw wildlife. He knew where to take us during our game drives and could spot wildlife from a mile away. We saw almost all the wildlife we came to see, including witnessing a cat and mouse hunt between lions and zebras. The hotels were great, and the service was excellent. Mwanje, the owner, would check in with us during our safari to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. Since we had a late night flight on our last day, he organized for us to stay in a very reasonably priced hotel and had us picked up a dropped off to the airport for our flight. Highly recommended.

Review about Uganda by danjamo
The country is visual diverse and stunning in a number of ways. The size of Uganda ensures that you can cover a lot in a short time period if necessary. The wildlife is, again, highly diverse and although it may not have the grandiose of Kenya and Tanzania it is certainly impressive in its own right.
