I strongly recommend joining Open Africa Safaris for safari tour in Tanzania.
Dave and his team made an incredible Kruger experience even better by their attention to detail!
Dave and Mark got to know my team of 6 men personally and were a great pleasure to partner with. The attention to detail for us was much more than we expected. Fantastic time in Kruger with Kruger Flexi Tours!

An excellent weekend with Bramwel Safaris
We were a group of 15 people who went in safari with Bramwel safaris. We was very satisfied with our trip and felt like Bramwel Safari had a genuine wish to give us the best experience we could get. They made a program that was made out of our wishes, budget and our timelimit. They were available 24 hours the days we spent with the company. The food was good, the cars were comfortable and the guides made the weekend complete! Than you Bramwell for giving us a wonderful weekend, we will recommend Bramwel to everyone!

Great Company and great Team!
We traveled as students group from the university of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Open Africa Safaris handled everything about our trip. From the day we started to contact John who is Open Africa Safaris' representative in the USA, he was so quick to answer our questions. He answered all our questions and gave us options on our trip, he was absolutely excellent on communication. When we got in Tanzania we were amazed with an incredible service that Open Africa Safaris' team provide to us in Tanzania. We stayed in wonderful Lodges, food was so delicious, and we even got to try an African food known as Ugali. Our Tour Guide Joseph was such an amazing guy, not only that he showed us all animals we wanted to see but he was so friendly as well. Each of us were very happy about the trip because we got more than we expected. Truly, that was unforgettable experience and we thank Open Africa Safaris to make our dream come true. On behalf of my group, I highly recommend Open Africa Safaris to other student groups as well as individuals who would like to go on tour in Tanzania.

Life changing
The communication from the guides telling us our daily programme was very good, service was better than a 5 star hotel, the expectation I had and the experience I had was worlds apart, I can recommend this tour to anyone. The leadership each member showed and the commitment was really out of this world. It changed my life.
Best Safari Tour!
We did the 4-Days masai mara tour with guide john. It was an amazing experience. Our guide took wonderful care of us, was a safe driver, was very knowledgeable about all the sites, took us to amazing views, catered to our every need. It was an all around amazing experience. We stayed for 3nights in masai mara and by far this tour was our favorite part of our kenya the trip! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

really good and knowledgable
There was one lodge in Ngorogoro which was pretty mediocre but the rest of it was excellent and very accommodating especially when we wanted to stay an extra day in the crater

Great Experience in a real wonderful place
We spent 10 days across the most important Natural Reserves in Kenia and Tanzania: Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngoro Ngoro, Amboseli, Lake Manyara. We had great time with Loth Kornelio, we see lots of animals, great landscapes, slept in tend in wonderful wild places. I really enjoed that experience.
I only missed a nightlife safari...next time!
Very responsive, but a little disorganized
Robert's company was recommended through the Nairobi Expat Marketplace forum and overall, we had a good trip. The driver who accompanied us was friendly and great at spotting animals (though not necessarily able to tell us much about the animals). Robert was also very responsive to our emails both in the planning stage, and throughout the safari when we needed to clarify things.
My suggestion would be that if you book with Maasai Trails East Africa, to send a confirmation email the day before to confirm that you will be getting water and binocular. Both were forgotten for us, which was disappointing. Maasai Trails reimbursed us for the water we purchased, but no binoculars meant some of the animals further from the road were harder to see. Also double-check the itinerary: our driver didn't know half of our itinerary and there was a lot of confusion over whether he had been given the park fees, etc. Ultimately Robert handled the situation but it would have been nice to not have had to spend an evening calling and clarifying our itinerary.
Despite the forgotten items, we enjoyed our safari experience overall. Thanks, Robert and crew! If you all improve communication within your team members and ensure that what is listed in the package is included in the car, you'll be a 5-star deal.
