Wonderful experience!
We chose Kenya for our first trip to Africa, and we are very happy that we were able to visit the Masai Mara, which was the most interesting part of the trip.
In Masai Mara, we stayed at Masai Mara Bush Camp Private Wing and were very satisfied with the hospitality and support of the staff there.
For us Japanese, traveling in Africa is not easy, but visiting here has changed our minds.
I hope many Japanese people will visit.
It was the support of Leisureway Adventures that kept us satisfied.
And it was SYLUS that supported us in this experience.
He provided quick feedback and a plan that met our requirements at all times.
Without meeting him, I could not have had such a wonderful experience.
I want to thank him again.

A once in a lifetime experience! ♥️
Crystal Safari was very helpful from the planning process to any questions we had. The tour was pricey but worth it. We saw everything we wanted to and had an overall great experience. Our guide Joseph was very friendly, helpful, flexible with our program, trustworthy and also always in a good mood and up for a joke. We would fully recommend crystal safari & Joseph to our friends! Thank you!

Breathtaking wildlife in various scenario and beatiful beaches in a perpetual summer.
We spent one week safari with a great and well experienced guide (Patrick from Leopard Orchid Safari). From Nakuru to Masai Mara, from Amboseli to Tsavo we encountered uncountable animals and experienced some impressive wildlife scenes. In addition we visited a tea plantation near Nairobi and enjoyed some days in Tiwi beach near Diani. Safety is good, but wandering in some parts of the big cities alone (without a local guide) is not recommended. Nevertheless a travel in Kenya is definitely an experience to do and hopefully repeat.

Review about Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary by Marco Orsi
Game drive with few animals compared to National parks. Beatiful accomodations and high level services and securities.

Review about Tsavo East National Park by Marco Orsi
Less crowded and quite different from the other parks because of the lower altitudine (e.g Baobab, Giraffe Gazzelle) and because of the red terrain.
Absolute Excellence
We booked a 3 day/2 night package with Akondo Adventures from Zanzibar.
Given the short notice we gave for our booking, we were extremely impressed with Boris' communication, quick responses to our enquiries with clear and precise information. During the course of our tour, Boris kept in contact making follow ups on us as well.
We had a great guide Ayoub who shared his passion for wildlife with us and we learnt a lot from him about the local people, the parks we visited (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Manyara). We also loved that we had an exclusive tour.
We enjoyed all the Parks we visited but the Tarangire Park and Ngorongoro were the best.
Our accommodation, Heart and Soul, was a good spot, we loved it. The staff were welcoming, we enjoyed the meals, the room was neat, great shower, the bed mattress could have been a little more thicker.
Because we were celebrating our 1st year anniversary ( which we communicated with Boris) Our room was set up with a suiting theme on arrival and the staff sang for us on our first night dinner and we were surprised with a cake they made for us.
We had a pleasure to meet Boris and his Akondo team at their offices in Arusha after our last safari.
It was a special moment for us, after having had 3 days of safari, to meet the team that made our experience in Tanzania a memorable one and to hear the story of their journey.
Lastly before we were taken to the airport for our flight back to Zanzibar and while this may have not been part of the normal tour routine. Our guide took us to a local food spot in Arusha where we had a taste of their local meal nyama choma naugali which is polenta and BBQ meat. It was special to us as we love to try local meals everywhere we travel to.
I will book with Akondo again, great service indeed. Thank you Boris and your team.

Breathtaking
My family and I had the trip of a lifetime in Tanzania in June with Nihapa Tours. Kelvin and the team were outstanding! Everything from planning, our arrival, and our 11 days spent adventuring was phenomenal. Every detail was thoughtfully planned and considered to ensure that we were not only comfortable, but had a luxurious experience. I highly recommend Nihapa tours to anyone looking to embark on a Safari adventure. Honorable mention for our amazing Safari driver, Suma. We were so lucky to have him and he ensured we saw everything we hoped to see and more. I would definitely recommend splitting your adventure up between Safari and Beach (Zanzibar). We did this and it made the experience all the more exciting yet relaxing. I cannot thank Kelvin and team with Nihapa tours enough! I feel extremely blessed to have had this experience and to do so alongside family. We will never forget it!

Tour operator directed us to outstanding properties with excellent care!
Clyde worked with us to determine the best location to meet our goals and worked with us to get the best value in our budget. All connections were smooth and flawless. The lodging and people guiding and taking care of us were top notch.
Tailormade Africa knows where to go and always sends us to unbelievable places.
The last trip was even more amazing as the lodge and resorts are very much giving back to their communities and people
Second safari with Tailormade and cannot recommend or praise them enough!
