Nice experience in Kenya
My friend and I had our safari organised by this tour agency from the 6th August till the 16th August: it was our first safari and, overall, we enjoyed it, even though some aspects can be improved. The communication with the agency was really quick and efficient during the all time and our accomodations were good (budget option), except for the first one in Masai Mara, where we spent two nights and both food and bathrooms (scarcely essential and with unstable hot water) were not the best.
Our driver, Newton, was a nice guy and he used to provide adequate explationations during the game drives, but he was not always on time, so the timing in general should be optimized, also considering few but proper stops and the time for meals, and we didn't always feel safe while he was driving, because he was constantly on the phone. A very negative aspect about the organisation is that the driver didn't have his accomodations booked for the night, so it happened twice that we had to leave earlier from the game drive in order to let him find where to sleep (and of course we agreed to leave because we didn't want him to sleep in the car, but it would have been more appropriate to book it in advance, maybe through the agency, so that we could enjoy the whole day at the park). In addition, during our first game drive in Masai Mara the car broke down twice (at first there was a problem with a bolt of the tyre, which probably wouldn't have happened if there had been a proper check-up before the start of the safari and this inconvenience made us waste more than 1 hour to solve it, while the second time was just a damage in the tyre, which of course can happen and was quickly changed).
Our programme also included a visit to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha: they are not bad, but I think two days are too many and it's better to skip at least one of them and to have more time for a game drive in a park (Amboseli for example, where we spent just half a day at the end) and when we realised this during the trip, they told us it was too late to change our schedule. I would have liked to spend more time in Masai Mara too, because, even though we were supposed to spend two days of game drive there according to the programme, we actually had one day, since we arrived in the afternoon on the first day and there was only the possibility to visit the Masai village, which we preferred not to do.
So, on balance, I would suggest to see less spots, but to spend more time in the main parks, maybe also providing more packed lunches to be taken in the morning when it's time to change accomodation in order to avoid waisting time in reaching the new place, doing the check-in and having lunch, but going straight to the new park for the game drive and then doing the check-in directly in the evening.
At the end, we went to Diani Beach, where we spent a very nice and relaxing time at our resort. Anyway, apart from the previous points, we had a good time.

Amazing Safari
The tour was perfectly planned. We had an amazing and very experienced driver called Assad. His knowledge is impressive and we saw lots of animals with an amazing view. His driving skills are as well very good - he is a calm and professional tour guide in general. Value for money is appropiate. We would recommend the Safari 100% especially Assad as a driver!!

Amazing Safari with African Big Cats Safaris!
Well, sometimes is really difficult to express with words the emotions, excitement as well as happiness for such an event like safari tour. Thanks to African Big Cats Safaris organization and people involved, all this factors proved to be at the highest level of professionalism, kindness and knowledge about their work, people, traditions and many other small things that make your experience even more beautiful. Our guide/driver Ernest and our Tour organizer Emmanuel were definitely at their best helping us with everything and sometimes beyond their responsibilities (they helped us find an accommodation in the very short time, since we were not happy with the one we found on our own). This was a private tour, worth its money since the quality of the lodges, food and guidance was really very high. We felt safe every step of the trip, and our driver was so knowledgeable about savannah, wild animals that we managed to see all kind of wild lives we could not even imagine. I would definitely recommend this company thanks to their dedication, professionality and passion they put in literally everything they provide for their guests. Tanzania should be proud of its people and beautiful countryside.

So happy that we have chosen Meijo Safaris for our first safari!
Our 5 day safari with Meijo Safaris was simply perfect. From our first communication with Daudi, who organized our itinerary and met us in Arusha, to Herman, our amazing guide throughout the safari. We felt that it was very important for both that we have a great time - and we did!
During our safari Herman took great care of us and went above and beyond to provide us with a safari experience we will never forget. We saw the Big Five and so many more (impossible to count!), we learned so much about the animals and nature from Herman. He has incredible eyes and many years of experience as a guide. Every day was different, there is a great variety within the different national parks (Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara) and we had so much fun watching the animals and taking amazing pictures. At the same time, we felt 100% safe and in really good hands (kudos also to Herman's responsible driving).
The lodges we chose during our trip were all top quality, very welcoming, comfortable and with incredible views. The hot lunches during the day were also very good.
All in all, we are still overwhelmed by all the beauty we have seen during these days and are very happy to have chosen Meijo Safaris for our first safari.

Top-Notch Safari
On a photography tour with friends, we traveled for 2 weeks in Samburu and Masai Mara. Accommodations, food, and service were terrific. More importantly, our guides were exceptional and got us to the right places at the right time for amazing photography. Quality of the guides is the single most important factor in a successful safari, and Sunworld excels at this and has new, well-designed vehicles to match.
