Tayiai Safaris did it again!!!
This was our third time we went on Safari with Tayiai Safaris and Lenny Koshal as a guide. As we did a long distance tour - Nairobi, Maasai Mara, Victoria Lake, Kakamega and back to Nairobi - Tayiai Safaris took us safely all the way. Lenny was, as always, a very good guide and showed that he knows a lot about many different places in Kenya. Superb knowledge and service. 100 % satisfaction!

Great Safari experience. We saw so much wildlife!
Our driver was excellent, very knowledgeable of Tanzania, the Serengeti and of the animals. He was able to take us places to see every type of wildlife we hoped to see. I'd recommend Macho Halisi to anybody considering a safari in Tanzania. Our accommodations were also excellent. Everything exceeded our expectations.

A well kept secret, a definite for anyone wanting to experience the wild life in their own habitat
It was more than I expected, timely and very affordable. The service was excellent and the people spoke English

Unforgettable experiences with Netherken!
I have been on several 1-day tours and a 3-day Safari with Netherken. Everything has always been perfectly arranged. I am sure I will make a few more trips with this organization. The owners are very nice people and know a lot about the different parks and tours Kenya offers. I think they give reasonable prices for the tours they offer compared to other organizations. I like how they make every trip a unique one exactly as you wish for!

Day trip to Kilimanjaro
As we were staying in the hotel where the office of Kibosho Tours is located, we chose to pass by and see what they had to offer. Previously we passed by another agency and were approached by flycatchers on the street, but here a lovely and enthousiastic lady at the desk informed us about their offers for day trips and we decided to take the risk of going on a day trip to the Kilimanjaro with them (they didn't have a lot of reviews yet). It was worth it, for us they had a good balance between price and quality. We were driving in a jeep to the entrance of the parc, our guide helped us with the registration, we got enough water, good lunch box and our guide made sure we were okay during the hiking part (which was 4h going up and 2h going down, more or less). We were only out of luck when we got to the small crater where clouds prevented us from seeing the summit. But now we are inspired to come back to get to the top, one day... They were also kind enough to help us with information about local transport.

Safari - packed with adventures!
We went on a three week safari with EWA to many parks in Tanzania. We saw all the birds and animals and found ourselves in the middle of the great wildebeest migration, wow. A very cool part of our trip was visiting four different tribes, including the Hadzabe hunter gathers. Our guides were first class and able to provide information on animals, birds, flora, history and geology of the countryside. Accommodations and food were excellent and tailored for those with special food needs. We have done some high end tours to Antarctica, Arctic, Galapagos, Bhutan, Sahara, National Geo etc. and Brian and his staff certain match or exceed the best. The tour was customized to match up to our eight member group and all the members personal need.
The trip was so fantastic for birds its convinced me to take birding up - I recorded over 200 species of birds, most with good pictures with a modest lens.
Each day seemed to top the next with new adventures and sights. Even our last drive to the Serengeti airstrip produced a pride of lions with three month old cubs and a leopard hunting through the tall grass. A great send off to a wonderful trip.

perfect bookings!
Once again perfect organized! At all places we wanted to visit the perfect accomodation was suggested and we had no problems with any oft the bookings. We had a great time, however, the trip (again) was much too short, means, we are planning the next trip and we'll do it with you again! Many thanks and kindest regards, Klaus

Our safari with Usambara Expeditions: punctual, dedicated and knowledgeable
For our two week early March 2016 Kenya - Tanzania trip we wanted to see friends, do all travel over land by bus, get some safari feel in Tanzania's Northern Circuit but focus on Ruaha National Park in the South and wrap up with Zanzibar beach days. Bookings were done from abroad, choosing Tanzanian companies based on reviews: we had no prior experience with any of them. Ultimately this means trust and with Usambara for our Ruaha safari that played out very well. So much so that after the safari they also handled our getting from Iringa (town closest to the park) to Dar es Salaam to Zanzibar and eventually back to Dar's international airport: a company that also handles your getting from A to B in a tailor-made way proved a real bonus.
Given that our time of visiting was not the best to spot game - long grass, dense bushes - the Usambara guide being local to this part of Tanzania nevertheless tracked many: unforgettable encounters with lions. lionesses and elephant families in particular. Ruaha National Park is firmly on our list for next time - be it in a different season.When that happens Usambara Expeditions will be our choice of safari company again.

Wonderful trip to Massai Mara and Lake Nakuru
We had a great safari with suburbs adventures - many animals, much laughter and fun. Our driver was fabulous and did his best to show us as much as possible. Lamech did everything for us to feel comfortable and was absolutely reliable. Any questions before our journey he always answered immediately and kindly. I do highly recommend "Suburb adventures" !
Thank you so much, Lamech and staff
