Amazing experience with the most knowledgeable people!
My wife and I booked a week and a half excursion all over Kenya with Australken. It took a little back and forth to really customize our trip, but Zippy was able to adjust everything to exactly how we wanted, despite us asking for quite a bit, and at a very reasonable price too! Leading up to departure, Zippy was very helpful. She guided us on what we should do in preparation, what others have done, and threw in tips here and there on what stuff to bring. Once we actually landed, the experience was smooth, it was clear that this wasn't some janky operation. Everyone at Australken knew what they were doing, and had been doing it a long time. We visited several places all over Kenya, the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, and more. Our primary driver, Simon, had such vast knowledge about all of the animals, and he knew how to drive our private Land Rover very well. We got up very close to Lions, others couldn't reach the area we were in due to their vehicle. Aside from multiple lions, we saw plenty of rhinos, giraffes, water buffalo, wildebeasts, cheetahs, hippos, zebras, elephants, baboons, crocodiles, impalas, warthogs, jackals, waterbucks, and more. For me and my wife who love animals, this was 10/10. We ended our stay in Kenya with a beach hangout at Diani Beach. Diani Beach has a lot to offer to couples and just people in general, it has a really nice view, and going into town from there, there are a lot of small shops you can get things for cheap. $0.20 to a tuk-tuk will get you a decent distance. We also spent some time in Mombasa before our flight, which was a very very cool place, culturally. Fort Jesus was one of the most interesting pieces of history in Old Town. I recommend you visit.
Overall, Australken was professional, gave us room to customize whatever we wished, and was the right price for me and my wife to experience the greatness that Kenya has to offer. I would recommend them to anyone!

Great Safaris experience with Jocky tour
I joined the Masai mara 3 days tour. Our driver was very experienced. On the safaris tour, he was very quick to move to the good location where we could easily take photos of wild animals including elephants, lions, giraffes, and cheaters. Also he was very helpful and friendly to us during our entire tour.
I stayed at a tent, which was clean and comfortable enough. Meals were good enough so I think the price of the tour was pretty reasonable. Overall I can strongly recommend Jocky tour based on my experience.

EXCELLENT ONE MORE TIME!
It´s the second time Nikki Thaver plan a travel for us and we have to say that it has been wonderful again. All her suggestions have been helpful for us in our South Africa & Mozambique two weeks holidays. She is always ready for any question and make you feel good on travel because is calling to destinations to make sure you arrived safety. The guides, locations, accomodations, transfers , etc have been great one more time. There are many travel agencies in Spain but we prefer to choose Southern Africa 360 - Luxury Holidays for the highest level of efficiency.

perfect experience to see my countries 123, 124 and 125
after 125b countries moving around , I get a little bit difficult as a tourist
They told me my best option
instead of going by airplane to to go to zimbabwe and from there, they arrange all my transfer s and tours to the nearby countries to Zambia, Botswana
also a nice experience
the hotel they suggested was great, very central located , and colonial style rooms
my friend Lola also made a tour with them and she choose bed and breakfast houses and she was delighted
I am more into the hotel option, but Shikwaru can arrange anything for you

John Muhoho took great care of us on our 9 day Maasai Mara and Zanzibar adventure!
From the email communication, to the reservations, bookings, flights and hotel accommodations, John Muhoho, was detailed, responsive and delightful to work with! Confidence in traveling around Sub-Saharan Africa on safari in the Maasai Mara or in the spice farms and Stone Town of Zanzibar couldn't have been better. The Fig Tree hotel in the Maasai Mara, was in a beautiful setting just near the game park. It was a restful and beautiful place full of smiling, honest and welcoming staff! It was in large part a result of the smooth coordination and advance planning within our time frame by John Muhoho. All the best to him and others fortunate enough to book travel plans through him and the CKC tour company!

Awesome safari experience with kids in Kenia
The agency communication with us was great, they answered our requests very fast. They prepared the trip schedule according to our wishes and family features (a couple with 3 kids) , and they sent all the details and quotation pretty soon so that we could make changes. The method of payment was flexible .
The guide, Kikitu, was really cool, especially with the kids, trying to meet our expectations all the time.
The only improvement point from our side was the car. It was old and had no security belts
