Best holiday of our lives, and we've been to over 30 countries. Special beyond words
5/5

WOW!! I honestly don't know where to start.. my husband and 5 year old daughter went to Kenya for a 5 day safari - we went to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, and the Masai Mara all very beautiful and amazing

1. Noah, the man who responds and organises all the tours was amazingly patient and so very helpful!! I'd send him an email, mind you we are 9 hours behind and I'd get emails straight away, he answered all our questions, we forgot to see about getting a car seat for our 5 year daughter until we arrived in Africa. I emailed him from the airport and when Eustace, our fabulous guide, showed up the next day car seat was in the car! My husband realised the day before we were leaving Kenya he forgot his credit card at the hotel in Lake Naivasha ( we'd stayed at 3 nights prior a bit annoyed with the hotel that they didn't call us or Noah as we'd booked through them but definitely not Wildebeest's fault!) so Noah sorted it out got our card to Nairobi. Eustace got it to us before we left for the airport- mind you he had to leave his house early in the morning to get to the courier office to pick up the card, then get to our hotel as the traffic was terrible he abandoned his vehicle got on a moped taxi to make sure we got it before we left for the airport at 9AM. Amazing customer service!!
2. Eustace, our lovely guide, he was so nice and very patient as we had our 5 year old daughter who can be a bit difficult. Every morning he'd have a smile on his face waiting for a new day. He was knowledgeable about the animals and the places we were, very well spoken, and now very much loved by our daughter and our family he made our trip so very special. My little one was desperate to see lions, her favourite animal, and every time we stopped to talk to another guide he'd ask if anyone had seem some.. We were very lucky and saw a mating pair in Masai Mara- we were the only jeep around for a while totally amazing!!
3. Lodges- we stayed in 3 different lodges during our 5 day safari - all were beautiful, clean and had wonderful beds!
4. Journey- we drove to all our destinations and I now see why people fly in and out of the safari camps the roads are horrible but of course this isn't Wildebeest's fault… However if we hadn't driven we wouldn't have seen the great divide and have fond memories of Nairobi traffic, going off road on the highway because there was a huge hole in it, seeing camels, cattle, goats, and chickens as road blocks, and getting our Kenyan massage! ( riding on an unpaved very bumpy road for about 3 hours!)

I highly suggest using this outfit the customer service goes above and beyond. The pricing is so very competitive!! I don't know how they did it but one of the hotels we stayed in was roughly $600/night we stayed 2 nights our whole safari was only $2500 for 2 adults and 1 child…. We considered that a fantastic deal!! When we head back to Kenya, this is definitely who we'll be using!! Fab time!!

Fun trip and true adventure
5/5

First of all I'd like to thank Steve Sr. Manager of safari booking. He is really good experienced manager. He helped me to going through step by step booking my trip even he helped me to search for my domestic flights and hotels etc... He was really careful about if anyone vegetarian or any food allergies in our group. That was a huge plus for me before start our trip to Tanzania.
Once we arrived to Arusha they picked us up from the airport as promised to our hotel. Next morning driver picked us up from our hotel on time and we met our game driver James and our stomach doc.
James is very experienced driver and a guide. I cant even ask more than his unlimited good mood and smiley face friendship and did not take time how he blended into our group :-)
During Safari he gave us all the information about where we are and the animals that we have questioned. He played very well. Knows where to stop for good view that we can take pictures clearly.
We had all the safari experiences that we can in 4 days.
Our cook (stomach doc) had feed us very well with a lot of food... He was careful about vegetarian (me) and cook separately. In the morning our coffee and tea was ready at the table. Food always ready at the time he told us with least 3 courses meal and dessert.
Thank you Safari booking and Thank you James from bottom of my heart.

Incredible day safari in Moremi National Park thoughtfully organised by the lovely Lelobu Safaris.
5/5

After talking to the lovely, friendly people at Lelobu Safaris about what I was looking for in a day safari, I found that they went over and above to go beyond all of my expectations. I had the most incredible day in Moremi National Park spotting all if the African animals I had dreamt of seeing, with the added bonus of watching a lioness attempt a kill to feed her hungry cubs. My tour guide was very informative and experienced and all the timings were spot on. Lunch was delicious, and Lelobu Safaris made sure that there was something for everyone to eat, meeting my gluten free dietry requirements. This was amazing! Lelobu Safaris were super stars, I would 100% use them again.

amazing experience
5/5


Last year December, my friends and I did a 3 day safari with venture Africa budget safaris. I
can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was.The tour guides were on point,they have studied animal behavior and explains everything to the
passengers. Their great and main concern is your experience and what
animals you see and explaining their behavior. I would highly recommend this experience it was the best!!
Thanks again Venture Africa Budget Safaris for the most memorable time of my life
and being able to share this experience with my friends.

Extremely helpful
5/5

I booked a safari last minute and Dunia tours was extremely fast in responding to my quote request. This tour company was the only one that I found that had so much already included in the price (hotel transport, first and last night hotel stay, sleeping bag, drinking water, etc.). If I had booked through another company that would have easily added a couple hundred dollars to the safari.

Once I arrived in Tanzania I had issues with getting money from an atm as with most companies in Tanzania, Dunia does not accept credit cards. The tour operator was extremely helpful in driving and escorting me to the atm and they even let me pay after the safari.

The safari itself was outstanding. There are countless animals in the Serengeti and ngorongoro crater and the camping was in amazing locations. I would recommend booking through Dunia tours. Their customer service can't be beat in Tanzania.

Great 3-day Safari Adventure in Murchison
5/5

This was an excellent safari with East Africa Jungle Safaris. Fred was really quick to respond to questions when I initially contacted him about the details of the safari and the communication was great throughout the planning stages. Also, you can easily customize your trip since it is private, so on the third day instead of chimpanzee trekking we decided to do another game drive. Fred picked us up and dropped us off in a timely manner from our hotel and was a great and safe driver. Murchison was well worth it - we saw a lot of elephants, giraffes, hippos, many kinds of antelopes, warthogs, crocodiles, monkeys, baboons, etc. Unfortunately, we did not see any lions, but Fred did try his best to help us find some. We just didn't have any luck. We stayed at the Parkside Safari Lodge, which is part of the package, and it was excellent! The lodge is right in front of the Albert Nile and the sunsets are gorgeous. Also, they were extremely attentive, the rooms are spacious and they have an amazing cook named Francis who will cater the dishes to your tastes. The only recommendation I have is that the rooms may need fans in them as it got extremely hot in the night. Overall, great trip! I'm so glad we chose this company.

Incredible safari experience
5/5

We had a very nice experience in kenya. James answers promptly any request, is open minded and gave us good offer. Our driver, maxwell, is an awsome guy, perfect guide, very experienced and loves the game drives. We saw much more than actually expected. The lodges were beautiful, lake naivasha country club had the best food, lake nakuru lodge had the best view, massai mara sopa had incredible staff
