A trip of a lifetime...worth every penny.
We had a most pleasurable 6 day Safari experience with Beacon Safaris. Beacon Safaris was easy to work with and worked out an itinerary to suit our individual needs. Robert was quick to respond and took away any unease we might have felt booking such a vacation from such a distance. Our accommodations were comfortable and offered conveniences we had not expected. The food at each of our accommodation spots was satisfactory. The variety and quality of the food varied with each accommodation destination with some being better quality than others. At each destination, the service staff were outstanding. Our guide/driver Kennedy was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to be with for the duration of the trip. We had the chance to view each and every animal we had named to Kennedy that we wished to see. The scenery, the animals and the people of Kenya will always be memorable.

Wow!
Ramona from Go2Africa was awesome. Her recommendations, insights, and communication were right on. Our transportation and accommodations were top notch. Loved the whole experience. We had to keep pinching ourselves to make sure we weren't dreaming. We saw more than expected and our guide was wonderful. I would use go2africa again and highly recommend them.

My experience was ideal.
We had a wonderful experience. There were three of us in the party. Our driver was experienced, knowledgable, professional, and friendly. The safari was booked through Buymore Safari. They were willing to work with my pick up and drop off in different locations with no issue. They made sure we were well taken care of. We stayed at Fisi Camp. This is a 10 tent camp with very personable owners who keep the camp small so that the bush feel is maintained. I loved it. The food was good, the tents and beds were comfortable, and the overall service was perfect for what we were doing. There are never any guarantees when it comes to the wildlife, but our driver did his best to give us the best experience possible in our wildlife finding and viewing. We got lucky with the migration timing, and the sight of wildebeests and zebras dotting the land for miles was awesome.

Excellency from start to finish
I travelled with Journey Beyond twice this year and could not have been more impressed with the service and team. Attention to detail, quick replies and extensive knowledge before travel, and an incredible dedication and quality of services, from hotels to transfers to guides. Journey Beyond excels from travel planning to delivery, and I would not consider a visit to Africa without their guidance.

One of my best experiences in life
Kenya was amazing from day 1 until the end, and of course the visit to Masai Mara was the highest point of my trip. Everything was well organized, the camp was better than expected, clean tents, private bathroom, good food and very friendly staff.
I was lucky enough to see the begginning of the migration and that was superb! During my 4 days in Mara I had two guides and both of them were nice, helpful and friendly, stopping for pictures and activelly searching for animals.

Exactly what we wanted, knowledge, experience, confidence, compassion and above and beyond service.
So I have to admit, after traveling over 7000 miles all I could think of was "Please just let someone be there waiting for us". Not only were they waiting for us but that was the start of an absolutely awesome adventure! The service was impeccable at every camp, each one special in their own way. The Elewana Collection is a superb provider of hospitality, friendly staff , luxurious accommodation, and best of all superb locations. From the coffee plantation, to the treetops, the manor house surrounded by jacaranda trees, and the migration camp in the Northern Serengeti all exceeded our expectations. Our guides were a wealth of information, and we appreciated their passion for their country and the gifts that nature has bestowed upon Tanzania.. a special shout out to Moses and his first Pangolin. Thank you Lauren, it was a pleasure working with you and I would certainly use Go2Africa again. Haven't been to Botswana yet!

Lifetime experiece to see the wild animals so close in their natural habitat!
The land of natural wonders.
I did a 4 day safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and was able to spot all the animals very close except rhino. But is understandable that due to illegal poaching their numbers have been significantly reduced and according to our guide there were just 10-20 Rhinos left in the area. As they are also shy creatures, we were just able to witness one sleeping in the grass. Apart from that, we crossed numerous pride of linos, herds of elephants, crash of hippos, cape buffaloes and a couple of leopards.
If you ever think of a safari trip, Serengeti is a must!

Great experience, great value
I really recomend this safari company. We had a great 8 days trip with them. Abel was our guide, he is very professional and nice with us. He knows a lot about the Parks. If you are spanish speaker, they also speak spanish. Elisante was our contact, we change the itinerary and he was very flexible.
Definitely, a great and reliable safari company!

beautiful trip
Peter was our first contact and kept a close eye all along, greatly appreciated. Did Kilimanjaro 1 day climb with guide Tibit, a very good guide and the 6 days 5 nights to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and enjoyed every minutes if it. Our guide Jackson was knowledgeable, funny and delightful. Saw all animals, visited a Maasai village. Lunches were very good and dinners always accompanied with a recap of the day with planning for the next one. Transportation was very good. Accommodations were good with a plus for Kilimanjaro Wonders Hotel and Tukaone camps. Very nice and friendly staff at Octogone Lodge. Overall a wonderful experience. A really good group. Thanks to all!!!!
