Excellent safari
We have just returned from a 3 day safari and still have two to go to Arusha. Although there has been rain time we have had a great trip, only in Lake Manyara National Park problem with the roads a little. We saw many animals and it was good time for photography. We are already planning a new trip with Siafu Tanzania Safaris, we will also see Serengeti. Many thanks to our good guide Emmanuel and to Ene who help plan our trip.

We had the most enjoyable travel experience from the beginning to end.
Initially I was unsure of the of what to expect from this type of vacation but Odyssey squelched any questions and doubts I had in making such a trip. From my very first communication with the company, I was impressed with their professionalism. Once we arrived everything fell into place and ran smoothly. Our driver was over the top good in all aspects making our trip a wonderful experience. The lodges we stayed at were fabulous and the staff at all the locations were so helpful and courteous. I can not say enough of this safari as we saw all that there was to see and I would highly recommend anyone to try this outfit.

I had a wonderful experience and an amazing adventure on this trip: 12 days in Kenya
Mr. Otieno respond promptly to all my inquiries. He had everything organised and he always checked on us while we were on the road to make sure we were safe and we're having fun . The price was very competitive, all the accommodation were excellent. Anthony, our guide/driver was very knowledgeable and excellent at finding and explaining all sorts of animals and birds, he used the long range 2 way radio effectively to listen and asked other guides and find out where the animal sightings were taking place to get us up close to the wildlife . I will definitely have Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris again on my next trip to Kenya. I highly recommend this company, it exceeded my expectations.

Reliable, easy to work with and
We had a complex vacation plan in Diani, Kenya that included a destination wedding and Skywide did a masterful job of helping us execute on it. They carried out an extensive search to help us find a suitable hotel. They were also open to exploring hotels that we suggested. Eventually, we vacationed on the Sands at Chale Island for three nights followed by two nights at the Sands at Nomad where we also held our wedding The entire stay at Chale was just magical. Skywide had done an excellent job of arranging travel to and from Diani for us and guests as well as communicating our preferences to the Sands at Nomad leading to a beautiful event and an evening reception whose memory we shall always treasure. We would recommend their services any time.

Unprofessional behavior and old cars! Do not go with them!
1st of all I can tell you that you can have a good experience with them but don't risk it.
Part 1. The manager, I think Ibrahim, took us from airport and went to a restaurant, it wa OK.
Part 2 We went to the hotel which had no hot water... Whatever we were going in Safari next morning, he told us that the car will arrive at 8am. It arrived at 8.20 with the problem of windshields. We lost like anotjer 30 mins.
P4 The driver was ok and had the knowledge of the parks (Tarangire and Ngorngoro).
P5 In the first day of the trip it rained in the car, it was during the rain season.
P6 The accomodation in the Manyara Igloo was ok.
P7 CUT TO THE CASE... We should have had another night in that Peace hotel we stayed in the first night. We went to Arusha wit a taxi driver coz' the Safari driver should have stayed in Safari for another day. AND THERE the manager told us that we wont stay at the hotel because président it's in town and there are no rooms left. When I asked him why it wasn't already payed he said that the room was "complementary", not like it was in tha package we paid. Like we should have stayed on the streets if it wasn't so 'kind' to offer us a "technical room" at the Meru Treks offices, with a llt of lound and unclean bed.
DO NOT GO WITH THEM!!!
This guy is full of surpises.
Actally the car broke in the Safari and we stayed there 45 mins...

Wonderful experience
We just got back from a 4 day safari tour covering Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. Peter was able to customize the tour according to our preference and schedule, and answered all our questions in a timely manor. Our driver/guide Danson was knowledgeable and experienced. He was prompt and always kept the vehicle clean. We have seen a lot more wild animals than we had expected to see on our tour. This is truly a once in a life time experience for us and we are glad that everything went well. Thanks to Serene Safaris we had a wonderful experience we'll never forget.

Eighteen day safari
The staff and itinerary at Gamewatchers is exceptional and thorough. We were on safari with them one week ago and found them to be punctual, informative and thoughtful. Despite my husband experiencing two serious medical problems during our eighteen day safari they accommodated us in every way and even provided an extra three day safari at Porini Cheetah Camp when he was unable to complete the Tanzanian portion of our trip. We are grateful for all their assistance and kindness and recommend this company in every way to anyone looking for an exceptional African safari and tour.

Our trip was simply amazing! It exceeded our expectations in every way.
Our trip was simply amazing! It exceeded our expectations in every way. South Africa and Swaziland (now eSwatini) were beautiful; the waterfalls, mountains and scenery were outstanding. We found the people to be very friendly and engaging. Our guide, Jaco was the BEST! Incredibly knowledgeable about everything.... animals, birds, plants and a great cook as well. When asked "what wildlife did we see?", my answer is "what did we not see!" The accommodations were very comfortable and in some of the most beautiful locations.
I have not stopped talking about our trip since we got home and have told everyone that I talk to about Red Africa Safaris!

I got my money's worth on day one and the trip just kept getting better.
I booked my trip through groupon and it was a fantastic deal. The accommodations were amazing, the food was great, Kenya was a gift, our guide (Francis) was the best and deserves a raise. I can't recommend this tour company and this country/safari enough. It was the rainy season which meant more adventure (be prepared) and fewer tourists.
