Amazing safari tour!
We could see lots of animals like lion, cheetah, elephant and so on. It was unforgettable moments ever. Our guide driver Albert, he explained every animals and try to get close. He was amazing. Camp site was also nice, just we couldn’t use electricity in our own room so we needed to go to kitchen to charge our mobiles and camera but it’s still acceptable.
But we booked a car which can ride max 6ppl but actually it was 8people.
We were 4ppl group so 6 and 8 was big deference. If they explained before we would booked private one.
Anyway at total it was amazing trip, thank you so much!! Special thanks to Albert:)))

Morning Star were excellent to deal with.
We recently booked our honeymoon with Morning Star and they were excellent. We were dealing with Alice who helped us plan our perfect trip. Alice was very responsive to our queries, gave excellent suggestions on our itinerary and was very accommodating of any specific requests we had. The trip itself was excellent value for money and the accommodation was perfect and exactly as described. We had a fantastic time. Special thanks also to our excellent guides Alex and James (King James!!) for a fantastic safari. They were brilliant guides with great local knowledge and showed us the very best of what Kenyan safari has to offer. We can’t wait to visit again!

very freindly, prompt to answer, patient
We have good communication with the company. When in the process of consultation, they are the quickest to reply. The guide Champion is very knowlegable, energetic and positive. He has the rich experience even though he is young. Good experience!

Unbelievable attention to client needs
This was our second trip with Tailormade Africa following an amazing experience last year.
Lots of travel agents have access to good quality accomodation but very few take the time to understand what the client really wants, and then match those needs to the right safari.
Clyde's intro video calls are a great way to discuss what we are looking for and also to work out how to test our boundaries. He then comes back with a detailed intinary that demonstrates he has listened and reacted to our discussion. We trust him 100% with his recommendations and the detailed support infrastructure in country.
We visited Zambia - South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi. Both parks were outstanding in terms of landscape, quality of safari and the camp. They offered a complementary experience with amazing quality. Both delivered 100% on the brief. Clyde texted to see how things were....we replied with one word. "WOW!"
We had a few connections in/out of Lusaka airport. Each time we were met by a local agent who guided us through the airport. On our last connection we were early for the international checkin so had the opportunity of relaxing in the local agent's lounge with drinks, snacks and air con. Very welcome!
Clyde keeps in touch when you are away via WhatsApp so you know that he's able to sort any problems that may arise.
In summary, Clyde's knowledge of African safari is immense and his ability to properly tailor a trip to suit your needs is second to none. There is no need to consider anyone else in my opinion.

Easy and friendly communication
Our 5 day trip from Johannesburg to Kruger was great. The transfers were well organised,the drivers attentive and careful and out in the park our guide/driver Shadrack was awesome as we looked for wild game. Accommodation was rustic and comfortable.. excellent hot water...and the staff were happy and friendly.This was a tour of excellent value .

Kenya & Tanzania Safari
Great safari by Morning Star Tours. Would recommend to arrange your safari....guides, vehicle and accomodation all first class. Obviously it is not guaranteed to see everything you want....but the guides were able to put us in the best position to see the big 5 and give us a great experience.

Unforgettable days among African wildlife; 3-day luxury fly in fly out safari
We absolutely loved our safari experience - wonderful close-up encounters with elephants, giraffes, lions, hyenas, zebra, wildebeest and more - and overnight stays in really comfortable lodges who served excellent food. We highly recommend our guide Christian - he was very knowledgeable and perfectly discreet.
Pick-up and transfers were very smooth - all personnel involved spoke English fluently.

It was amazing tour
We went to the safari for half a day and a full day, the entrance fee is expensive, but it is better to go to safari as long as you stay there. We could also see different points of view and animals. Thanks to our divers Albert ;)

The most amazing experience!
We did the 5 day 4 night safari package and it was one of the most amazing experiences we have had. Solomon our guide was outstanding. He was so patient and stopped for as long as we wanted to see the animals. His 15+ years of experience showed throughout the 5 days and his knowledge on animals and areas we visited was incredible!
We managed to see 4/5 the big 5 and Solomon made sure to get as close and as safe to the animals to fully experience the true beauty of them! We even managed to see a cheetah and her 4 cubs eat their breakfast!
We had a chance to visit one of the Masai Mara tribes and would advise anyone doing the tour to pay the additional $20 to experience this and learn about their cultures!
We also did the nature walk additionally for $30 at naivasha. This allowed us to walk around the Crescent island game sanctuary with a guide and was in near touching distance of giraffes, zebras and many more animals. This was so exciting to experience!
I celebrated my 30th birthday whilst on the trip and Solomon even got me a birthday cake and had one of our lunch stops sing to me African style. This showed how thoughtful he was throughout our whole trip!
Jocky Tours where very reliant with communication and would normally reply within a matter of hours! We did the budget safari and this was an incredible value for money!

Great
I was very happy with the tour. I had a very limited time and I had to find a tour for two days on the weekend, going on Saturday morning and returning on Sunday evening. I contacted many companies but Kihindo tours was the one I felt the most comfortable thanks to its professionalism. As I am a solo female traveler, I was a bit stressed and I was not sure if safari was a good idea or not. But I am glad I did it! Winnie and the whole tour team took very good care of me from the moment I was picked up from the hotel to the moment I was dropped off. Although people normally had one guide, I had two guides. Salonike and Jonathan were both very good guides (Jonathan actually was the driver but he was also super knowledgeable) and very nice people. We did game driving both in the morning and evening, both were incredible experiences. I recommend both the tour and mikumi park if you have a limited time and cannot go to the Serengeti.
