Amazing experience! The company plans everything for you. Solomon Asante Sana was incredible nice!
The safari went like I imagined and how it was planned. Solomon Asante Sana, our driver, was incredible nice with us. He has a lot of experience. He explains a lot about the animals, the Masai Mara Park. I learned a lot with him in my days in Kenya. I really recommend the experience.

Unforgettable safari experiences and memories with Informative African Tour
We from Malaysia took a 4-day 3-night safari package to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Informative African Tour. Indeed our choice was right because they offered reasonable prices according to our needs, including providing halal food. Thank you so much to Gift Roman, Jamal Fahad and Chef Joji aka Abdul Karim for providing the best and most satisfactory service and hospitality. A journey across the horizon that never fails to amaze, seeing wildlife here and there, and being treated to deliciously cooked food. The experiences and memories of the safari package in Africa, especially in Tanzania will never be forgotten. We definitely recommend to everyone to choose this company to experience the same best experience and memory. Hakuna matata! :)

An unforgettable Safari Adventure with Meektrails
We recently had an unforgettable adventure in Kenya with MeekTrails.
Our journey started in Nairobi, where Lucas, our amazing driver, picked us up from our hotel early in the morning. From the very beginning, Lucas was patient, cooperative, and genuinely caring.
Our first stop was Amboseli, where we spent two nights and saw a variety of animals in their natural habitat. Next, we moved on to Ol Pejeta for one night before heading to Samburu. Samburu was one of the highlights of our trip with its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife.
We then had a wonderful stop at Lake Naivasha where we enjoyed observing hippos and a variety of birdlife. The boat tour was a great way to explore the area, and we appreciated the tranquility of the surroundings. It was a nice contrast to the more adventurous activities.
Another one of the most unique experiences was in Hell’s Gate National Park, where we took a cycling tour. It was incredible to cycle among giraffes, zebras,... Read more buffaloes, etc… and the contrast between the hot thermal waters and the cool waterfall in the gorge was a fascinating experience.
We concluded our adventure with three nights in the Maasai Mara, a park known for having the highest density of lions in Africa. We were fortunate to witness numerous lions, leopards, and cheetahs up close, making it an extraordinary wildlife encounter.
A special shoutout to our driver, Lucas, who went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. He communicated with other guides to find animal hotspots.
We stayed in mid-range lodges throughout our journey, and we were happy with the comfort and service throughout the trip.
The food was mostly served as a buffet and was of reasonable quality and variety, which met our expectations.
Above all, we always felt safe and comfortable, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable.
A few personal tips:
— Throughout your journey, you’ll be visiting numerous souvenir shops. If you’re looking to buy souvenirs to take home, the best deals are in the shops in Nairobi.
However, if you decide to buy souvenirs along the way, be aware that the prices in the villages are often marked up triple high. While it can be seen as a way to support local communities, be prepared to pay much more than in Nairobi.
_ If you opt for the cycling tour in Hell’s Gate, which I highly recommend, make sure to test the bikes before you ride. Choose one that feels comfortable, with a properly fixed saddle that won’t cause discomfort on the gravel roads. This can have a big impact on your overall experience.
_ Make sure to ask for a Land Cruiser for your long safari, especially in Maasai Mara. We didn’t have one and at times we wished we had it.
These vehicles are perfect for navigating bumpy roads and off-road terrain, offering a much faster and more comfortable ride. Having a reliable Land Cruiser will greatly enhance your overall experience.
_ The most popular time to visit Maasai Mara is during the Great Migration, which occurs from June to August. However, during the high season, park entry fees are doubled, accommodation prices increase, and you’ll encounter larger crowds, which can take away from the exclusivity and immersion in nature. (Imagine 30-40 cars lining up at any point with the engine sound and everyone competing for the best spot to see the animals) Unpleasant!
We visited during the start of the low season (Feb-Mar), and it was a great choice. We enjoyed lower park fees, better deals on accommodations, and fewer crowds, which made our experience a lot more peaceful and affordable.
The weather was perfect, and we still got to see the wildlife you’d typically see in the high season, though, of course, we missed the Great Migration which was a worthwhile trade off.

great & good value
Amazing 10-Day Kenya & Tanzania Tour Experience!
I had a fantastic 6-day tour in Kenya & 4 days in Tanzania arranged by ETA adventure Safaris. From start to finish, everything was well-organized, making the trip smooth and enjoyable.
The arrangement and service were excellent, with clear communication and great attention to detail. Our driver-guide Denis (kenya) & Hozza (Tanzania) was highly experienced, knowledgeable, and ensured we had the best safari experience. He spotted wildlife easily and provided insightful information about the animals and parks.
The price was reasonable, making it a great value for money. Since it was a budget tour, the accommodation was okay, meeting expectations for the price range but there have room to improve.
Overall, I highly recommend this tour agency to anyone looking for a well-organized and affordable safari experience in Kenya!

The experience of a lifetime!
I can’t say enough good things about this tour group. Since k was 16 years old (almost 30 years ago!) and saw Lion King for the first time, I have dreamed of traveling to see the beauty of Africa. Sperito and his team helped all of my dreams come true and were so kind and accommodating for the entirety of the trip.

Service-orientated, communicative, highly knowledgeable and kind
I have just completed an 11-day safari adventure with Serengeti Wakanda. It was undoubtedly the best holiday of my life and I cannot recommend this company enough.
The trip was for my 30th birthday and included 14 people. I sent inquiries to six tour companies with excellent customer reviews. I received custom itineraries from four of them and decided to go with Serengeti Wakanda based on the price, quality and depth of detail in the itinerary, and great responsiveness to follow up questions. Big thanks to Goodluck in the booking office for being a terrific planner and communicator!
From the moment we landed to the moment we took off, we felt well taken care of. Serengeti Wakanda coordinated transportation to/from the airport and a hotel in Arusha for the nights before and after the safari. They also selected and booked the camps where we stayed within the parks, all of which were fantastic.
Our guides (Andrew and Elli) picked us up from the hotel and remained... Read more with us for the duration of our experience, starting with a day trip to Materuni waterfalls and a chance to experience small scale coffee production in the nearby village. Over the course of the next 10 days, we visited Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorogoro Conservation Area (Ndutu and Ngorogoro Crater), and Lake Manyara NP.
Andrew (Senior Guide) demonstrated a profound understanding of animal behavior, encyclopedic knowledge of everything we encountered, and a mental map of the parks that was truly remarkable. His 11 years of experience as a guide were evident. He correctly predicted animal movements to put us in position for some incredible shots before other jeeps (actually, specialized Toyota Landcruisers) which were competing for the best view. He was able to answer every question we had (and we had a lot) about the animals, environment, weather, and the cultures of Tanzania.
Elli (Junior Guide) brought a similarly impressive knowledge base and an infectious positivity which left us all feeling like he was a close friend by the end of the journey. His 7 years of experience as a guide ensured that no matter which jeep I rode in for the day (Andrew's or Elli's) I was sure to have a great experience.
I have never before been so impressed by the combination of professionalism and personability we experienced with our two guides and I would recommend them 100 times out of 100.
During our time in the parks we managed to see wildebeests and zebras in the (tens of) thousands on the Great Migration (during calving season in Southern Serengeti), the Big Five (lions, leopards, buffalos, rhinos, elephants), cheetahs, giraffes, gazelles, hyenas, jackals, baboons and dozens of other animals in some of the best protected natural spaces remaining on the planet. At the end of the trip, our group tallied over 60 different animals, many of which we saw in large numbers.
In addition to our fantastic guides, Serengeti Wakanda stood out from its competitors with its vehicles and the lunches they provided. We had newer model jeeps with outlets in each seat and they provided a Mi-Fi device to provide wi-fi if we wanted it. Perhaps the most evident differentiator though was lunch. While the vast majority of other groups were provided packed cold lunches (e.g. sandwiches), Serengeti Wakanda coordinated with our camps to have hot lunches (e.g. rice with chicken/beef, lentils) prepared in the morning and kept in insulated pots in the back of the jeep until lunch time. They kindly catered to vegetarians and allergies in the group and the food consistently exceeded our expectations.
This was a once in a lifetime trip and I am grateful to Serengeti Wakanda for exceptional planning and execution.
