They were professional, efficient and experienced!
I travelled with a work colleague to Kenya and wanted the full safari experience in a limited timeframe, before our work started in Kitale. Pascaline supported with the itinerary and was flexible around our existing travel arrangements, she was very prompt in her responses and gave us a great deal. Bensen was our driver for the 3 days and he was excellent! He was clearly very experienced and knew the animals well enough to anticipate their moves, rather than crowding the animals we held back and this resulted in us seeing more animals, more closely. It was my first safari experience and I was very lucky to have seen the top 5 in 2 days and this was a mixture of luck and Bensen's experience and intuition. It was an unforgettable experience and will be very difficult to surpass. Many thanks to Mufasa travels in Kenya, I'll be booking again and a big thank you to Bensen and Pascaline! The communications, service, value for money, reliability and tour were all perfect.

Very organised and excellent service
Well, well, well what can I say – absolutely amazing from start to finish, memories that will last a lifetime. We have used JT safaris before when we visited Kenya and things were great so when returning to Kenya there was no hesitation to use his company again.
We contacted JT safaris from the UK and planned our trips, we sent a small deposit and then paid the rest when we met him once in Kenya. The organisation of the trips were ‘second to none’, arranged extremely well with our involvement once we was in Kenya. On arrival at Diani Beach Julius contacted us and we met up to finalise details and paid the final fee.
We completed amazing, absolutely memorable safaris which Julius arranged from start to finish. We visited Tsavo for three nights, two days and done the same for Maasai Mara – we were lucky enough to observe the big 5, obviously including a Rhino which was amazing to see in the wild. At Tsavo and Maasia Mara we had a private jeep for the three of us and a driver/guide. At Tsavo we did the night game drive which I would recommend, it is extra but worth it – while out we watched three female lions stalking and then going for the kill of the Gazelle’s (they missed but continued to stalk), saw night mongoose etc.
We had a great guide for Tsavo and an AMAZING guide in Maasia Mara called Robert (photo attached) if you go to Maasia Mara ask for Robert he is amazing, knows the land, animals and goes out of his way to find the animals that you want to find – it was due to his persistence and expertise that we saw the Rhino!!!!!!
In Tsavo and Maasia Mara we had the most wonderful/ amazing safari. We saw a Rhino, male lions, female lions with their babies, Elephants with babies, zebras with babies, cheetahs with teenagers, antelope, giraffes with babies, hippos, monitor lizard, ostrich with babies, buffalos, hyena’s, waterhogs, crocodile and so much more.
Both guides were really knowledgeable but Robert knew his homeland and the animals ‘inside out’, as a tribe man he knew where the animals would be and at what time, which way the wind was so where the animals would be – I could not recommend Robert enough as a guide he was absolutely amazing and I am almost certain that we would not have seen as much without him. Robert let us stay for as long as we wanted while we viewed the animals and it was so refreshing to see him being as interested in the animals as we were and some of the animals he took photos of as he said that they are rarely seen. We could not have wanted more. Robert’s knowledge and keen eye for spotting wildlife meant that we saw so many types of animals.
I genuinely cannot recommend JT Safaris enough. All our needs were catered for and it absolutely made our holiday. Robert was brilliant and when we do a safari again we will not hesitate to contact Julius and Robert. We could not have asked for better. I have two sets of friends who are visiting Kenya next year, I have recommended JT safaris and they are already in communication with him. Each safari and what you wanted, expected from the trip was designed with you in mind, personalised they were not ‘bog standard’.
Thank you for organising our safaris and making our holiday and experience amazing.

You made our Safari dreams come true!
My family and I spend beautiful 8 days in Tanzania thanks to Tanzania Horizon and it was dream come true for all of us, but mostly for me and my husband. As we are all safari fans since very long time, we always love to watch those documentaries on TV. This year we finally turned it into reality when we decided that it is now or never and booked our flights. Thank you Elizabeth and Kazi for your excellent service and for all your advise on this trip. It would not have been possible without you! We would definitely recommend booking with them!

Eddie the Happy Chappy
Eddie was a phenomenal tour guide! He was knowledgeable about the animals and landscape, kind and energetic from 5am to 5pm, and just all around great. This safari was fantastic— Eddie made sure to take into account what we wanted to see, and he tried his hardest to find everything! We saw all of the Big 5 minus a leopard, zebras, giraffes, impala, vultures, hyenas, and more! An all around awesome time!! I would recommend Eddie and MoAfrica Safari Tours wholeheartedly!

The trip was so cool I loved it!
The trip was awesome! I went as a solo traveller so I was quite anxious about who I would be with, but I ended up being with a really fun group of people! We saw so many wild animals, including a pack of lions at one point, a group of lion cubs, and much more! The mornings were an early start but it was so worth it; I can't describe how peaceful the environment felt whilst I was there, and it did suck to leave! I ended up doing more travelling with one of the people I met too.
The food that the cook made was delicious, especially the soup he made for starters. Would gladly do it again.

Kenya specialists and it shows
It has been a wonderful experience touring Kenya with Spirit of Kenya, you can tell that they are specialists in it, they have adapted to our needs and have made a tailor-made tour.
Our guide, Mike is totally recommendable, he has taken care of us and guided us very well, we have felt like his family.
I would definitely recommend this agency for tours in Kenya, we even did an extension to the coast and it was equally satisfactory, special mention to Kevin, our driver in Diani Beach.

Fantastic honeymoon safari
We would like to thank Joysharon for organising the most wonderful safari for our honeymoon. Everything was planned so well but there was also some flexibility in the schedule which we appreciated - we really felt our trip was personalised for us. James was a knowledgable and amusing guide who kept us entertained for the driving between safari parks as well as being a fountain of knowledge on all the animals we came across. A particular highlight was when a herd of elephants with their young calves were grazing round the car! We can’t thank both of them enough
