Great safari experience from booking to arrival to the actual safari
After contacting multiple tour companies, I found Super Eagles Travel and Tours to be the most affordable option. During the planning stages, I worked with Bildad. He was very responsive and was able to answer the hundreds of questions I had. He often responded to me within the hour, if not quicker. Bildad also helped me with visa, logistical, and tour questions. He was always patient with me and made sure everything was taken care of - from a ride to/from airport to visas to the actual safari. Once on the tour, my guide, Benson, was amazing. He knew Maasai Mara very well, so we were able to see the Big 5 on our first day of safari. He also was very flexible with our group and we were able to pivot based on weather and traffic to make sure we got the most out of our experience. Benson was very attentive to the group needs and was cognizant of our time and made sure we experienced everything Kenya had to offer. He shared great knowledge about the parks, the animals inside of them, and the Kenyan culture. I enjoyed the experience so much, I ended up extending my safari. Bildad was able to seamlessly coordinate this for me. All I needed to do was sit back, relax and enjoy the safari. All of the staff I encountered from Super Eagles were amazing, and I can confidently recommend working with Bildad to create your perfect safari as well as having Benson as a guide to show you what Kenya has to offer.

Suricata Safaris impresses with experienced guides and excellent service for unforgettable safaris
Our 5-day safari through the Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara national parks was an unforgettable experience.
The organization of Suricata Safaris was flawless. Daniel prepared us with a professional briefing and our guide Fredy impressed us with his knowledge and his warm and cheerful manner.
The highlight of the trip was seeing all of the “Big Five”. Camping in Ngorongoro and the Serengeti gave the safari a very special atmosphere. Many thanks to the entire team for this unique adventure!

A unique experience
Our 5-day safari through the Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara national parks in Tanzania was an unforgettable adventure.
The trip with Suricata Safaris went smoothly and we were in the best hands from start to finish. At the beginning, Daniel informed us about all the important points and prepared us for the tour. The final conversation about our experiences was also very pleasant. The whole Suricata Safaris team speaks fluent and easy-to-understand English - there were no problems with understanding.
Our guide Fredy was great. His deep knowledge of animals and nature as well as his open-minded and friendly manner made the trip something very special. He was able to answer all of our questions and explained everything to us in depth. He also always gave us time to observe the animals for longer and always discovered new animals.
All of the overnight stays were something very special. The Suricata Boma Lodge in particular is impressive with its bungalows, location and view of Lake Manyara - an extraordinary experience! The freshly prepared food and the overnight stays in tents, especially in Ngorongoro and the Serengeti, gave the safari a unique atmosphere.
The absolute highlight was seeing all of the “Big Five” – a long-held wish that came true.
We can recommend this trip to everyone. Thanks to the great team at Suricata Safaris, it would be a unique experience! Thank you for everything!

Once in a life time!
We got to spend new years on the Serengeti which is a once in a lifetime experience for us! We saw almost every animal (minus leopard 😮) and enjoyed the camping tents where we could hear hyena at night. Food was also great with large portions. Great value for money.

Reliable company, great food and wildlife encounters
We enjoyed our safari with Josh Dreamland. We did the 5 day, 4 night budget camping safari.
The pros:
- trustworthy company, everything all organised well
- great communication with Elizabeth leading up to the safari
- easy payment options
- free Josh Dreamland T-shirt!
- GREAT food - chef Matthew absolutely outdid himself for all the meals and we didn't go hungry
- free water, beer, coke
- epic scenery and wildlife encounters
- accomodation was basic but sufficient, the tents, mattresses and sleeping bags were provided by the campgrounds and were clean.
There were elephants and baboons at the Ngorongoro camp!!!
Things to consider:
- Note that Josh Dreamland work with a few other companies, and we ended up on a tour led by Serengeti African Tours instead. The others on our tour had booked through a few other companies, too. This was fine except one couple had booked the lodge stay as opposed to the budget camping stay, so quite a bit of time was spent in the morning and evening picking them up / dropping them off as our accomodation wasn't nearby. This ate into our safari time particularly on our second Serengeti morning. This is why we've reviewed only 4 stars :)
To avoid this, maybe when booking with them just ask to make sure everyone on your tour is doing the same either budget OR lodges, not a mix of both :)

Marvelous experience & our best way to visit Kenya
Kameraz of Afrika gave us trust since our initial point of contact. They fulfilled & exceeded expectations of our 8 day Safari in Kenya. The structure of the tour, the guides were incredible / highly proactive and delivered all the promises in our Games Drives- we saw all the animals in great settings-.
The flexibility to adjust to our preferences was great and delivered the highest value for our investment when compared to the other operators we considered! We’re already planning our next visit to Africa with Kameraz of Afrika!!!

Well organised and excellent value
I can’t recommend crater explorers highly enough, if you are searching for the best place to book your safari trip on a budget look no further.
Emmanuel was kind, helpful and answered all of my queries promptly. The trip was well organised, with everything taken care of for you so you don’t have to stress and can just fully enjoy the experience. We saw 4 of the big 5, including some intense encounters with elephants and lions, whilst always feeling safe. You can’t believe how many wild animals you see in the Serengeti and Ngorogoro is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been
The campsites were ideal with the tents pre erected with good facilities. The food was plentiful tasty and clean thanks to chef Titus. Our guide Lewis was knowledgeable, friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying it.
I think the pricing is with crater is very competitive, I was worried that it might be cheaper to book in Tanzania itself but I checked with a few local places once I landed and was only quoted much higher prices than paid with Emmanuel. Also from asking around whilst on safari it seems crater explores do the best deal

Memorabile experience
Organitazion was great, starting with booking and the full experience. Lodges were fantastic, driver very nice and informative. Safari in Kruger srl is great and in the riserva is even better.

A professional, organized, and flexible tour operator that made our safari an unforgettable experien
We had an amazing experience with this tour operator, and I can't recommend them enough. From start to finish, they were extremely well-organized, friendly, and flexible.
We visited the Masai Mara and Amboseli, both of which were absolutely breathtaking. But what really stood out to us was the operator’s flexibility. After our safari adventure, they arranged for us to be directly transferred to Diani Beach, which made our trip even more convenient and seamless.
Their willingness to accommodate our needs and go the extra mile to ensure our comfort truly made a difference. This level of personalized service is what made our experience unforgettable. If you're looking for a professional, reliable, and accommodating safari tour operator, look no further!
