All in one
Guided tour and escorted transport made me safe always and could enjoy the country. Accommodation ranges from decent to luxury, I got what I paid for. The wildlife appeal is great despite tarred roads being everywhere. But not only wildlife, the scenery, history, and cuisine are fantastic. All in one country.

Incredible experience with excellent, reliable service
My wife and I visited Jambo Resort just after New Year. When others said that it was doubtful if we could still see the gorillas (we planned our trip very late) Mambo Gorilla Safaris were our saviours. They looked after us and made sure we saw what we came to see. The trek in the Impenetrable Forest (just the name is exciting) was led by an expert guide who showed a clear respect and love for the environment and animals we were searching for. We had an incredible experience with sufficient time close up to the animals so as not to disturb them but at the same time get some great photographs and memories to last a lifetime. I highly recommend this organisation.

The ultimate camping safari
I had the best photographic trip I've ever had. My goal was to see as many animals (big and small) and birds, as possible; and to photograph them. I can say that my expectations were exceeded. I've done enough animal/bird photography to know that you can't control where the critters are or when they'll appear. However, my guide and staff were so knowledgable and experienced that I had the opportunity to see and photograph incredible encounters with animals and birds.
The meals were cooked over a fire and were deliciousl I'm a vegetarian and I was impressed with the creative and tasty meals I was served.
I mainly communicated by e-mail. My e-mails were answered promptly and my questions were answered.
I truly enjoyed my experience in Botswana, and would highly recommend Ulinda Safari Trails if you want a genuine camping safari in the bush and the chance to experience the wonderful wildlife in the country.

Excellent Services all through.
After a lot of research, we decided to settle for Grand Voyage and for sure they did not disappoint. It was all we needed, much more affordable that most Kenyan safari companies that we had researched. They tailor made our tour to fit our specific timings which were difficult to work with with the other companies. They were in touch with us from day 1, when we started the plans, to our arrival and up until when we came back to the states, they send us a follow up email to confirm if we arrived back safe.They helped us with our plans right till the last minute.
Our tour guide was very friendly and was exemplary informative through out the safari. He gave us options which allowed us to save 3 hours in Masai Mara and be able to do more than we had planned. We wished we could have spent more and more time there as it was an exciting experience.
We had a great time and definitely recommend!!

Full marks for the arrangements and itenary
We had a customised 7 day tour to four parks in Tanzania: Mynara, Ngorongoro, Sarengeti and Tarangire. We were greeted at Kilimanjaro airport and driven for all days with unlimited safaris in these parks. The accommodation was excellent and our vegetarian diet was very good. The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful, we saw all the major game as well as many species of birds. It was a very memorable tour, thanks to the painstaking care by Soumitra Chatterji who kept track of all the proceedings. We look forward to more safaris in Africa with Just Travels in near future.

Experience of a lifetime
My husband and I were slightly apprehensive having never done a safari before but the arrangements and booking process was amazing with Beacon Safaris, Robert made everything so easy. Every single minute was exceptional Antony picked us up at the airport and dropped us off at our hotel and Khan was there bang on time the next morning for our safari to begin. Khan was superb and his knowledge immense, nothing was too much bother. Khan took us to the Sarova at Masi Mari, he was such good company and we learnt such a lot from him, he went out of his way to give us a good experience, an absolute credit to Beacon Safaris who I cannot recommend enough. Sadly when we went to Lake Nakuru Khan was unable to come along, which I understand is very unusual as you normally have the same guide throughout. We had Evans who was also very good. We saw the big 5 and so much more. Don't consider booking with anyone else!

This was one of the most profound discoveries of my life. For me to say that, it's saying something.
I enjoyed every bit of this trip. I was overwhelmed by the hospitality, the accommodations, food, safaris, professionalism and the overall trip itself. I felt treated like royalty everywhere we went. I keep talking aboutmy experience, and me words can not express the experience. This is a must see for yourself!

wonderful Tanzania safari days
During the booking phase for our holidays we were really curious about booking a safari experience. In search of a "taste" we choose a two-day tour through the Tarangire & Lake Manyara national parks. Just a few minutes after our enquiry we received an answer from Emman, the managing director of Kili Serengeti guides. His suggestions of accomodations were perfect and all in all there was no need to thange anything of his offer.
Really excited we landed at Arusha airport on the first of June. Emman collected us himself and brought us to the hostel. Everytime talking to him was easy and a pleasure. After meeting our guide Mike (by far the coolest guide we ever met during any tours) in the hostel, Emman gave us a ride for a restaurant because we knew nothing in Arusha.
The next day Mike collected us early in the morning and the 2 day adventure started. He gave us so much information about the country and the people during the ride to Tarangire. He showed us some really nice souvenir shops aswell but the highlight was the game drive during the day. With all his patience he explained everything, giving so many insights especially about the birds. We were really lucky sawing every animal in Tarangire.
The evening we spend in a really nice panorama tent camp at Lake Manyara. Meeting the cook John there was a pleasure aswell. The food was so damn delicious and we had a wonderful stay there (especially seeing the milky way during the night there).
The next day we started after a great breakfast from John to the Lake Manyara Game drive. Like a little jungle it was so nice to see the elephants, hippos, buffalos, zebras, giraffes etc.
In the afternoon, Mike drove us back to Arusha were we met Emman and he gave us a second ride for dinner again. Thank you so much for this.
The next day he showed us his little office and drove us back to the airport.
All in all; this experience was amazing. From the beginning to the end, everything was so well organized and it was great to see, that Emman, Mike and John took so much care of us.
So please; if you want to book a safari in Tanzania: choose Kili Serengeti Guides; you won't regret it! (especially for this price)
With much love from Hamburg

perfect safari experience
We booked a group tour with this company for three days to Masai Mara in February 2018. It was just a perfect experience.
Picked on time at the airport upon arriving in Kenyas Capital City. We always knwe what was to happen each day. Accommodation was Aunthentic yet very comfortable. Very friendly guide. We enjoyed and requested for an extra days but in Amboseli. Here we had to take a private. tour as there were no groups to join on ghis specific day and it was very affordable and the experience was even better. Kibo safari camp was just the best. Wonderful meal. Amboseli Game drives not as great as Mara but worth visiting. The guide here was as great.
we conclude
The tour was nice
Very nice people
Informative guide and operator
Wonderful places with all animals
Honestly it was better than we expected and we can highly recommend AVS Team to all
Best regards,
Anastacia
