Perfectly organized honeymoon - safari and zanzibar
5/5

For our honeymoon we were looking for a holiday that combined a safari with some nice relaxing at the beach. We contacted Makasa and immediately received an example itinerary which already included most of what we wanted and with a lot of information about the possibilities. Everything was still flexible, so we changed a few things to get exactly what we liked. This all went very smoothly, with quick responses to emails and it was always clear what the costs would be etc. Whenever we had questions (although most were already answered in the practical info we received) we got a clear answer.
The trip itself was amazing! Everything was organized perfectly, from the moment we were picked up at the airport. We saw lots of animals during our safari, even on transfer days, and our guide had hawk-eyes, spotting animals in the distance while driving on the bumpy roads. Because we had a private safari, we could spend our time where-ever we wanted for as long as we wanted, which made the trip even better. Because it was low-season, we didn't see many other cars, so it really felt like we were out in nature in the middle of nowhere. The accommodations were very luxurious and the food was great.
For the (even more) relaxing part of the holiday we went to Zanzibar. We booked some tours there also via makasa, so we had the same guide for both days, making it easy to switch around the order of the tours to make it more convenient. We only didn't know the time we would be picked up for the first tour, but a quick call to makasa solved that immediately.

To summarize: we had a really pleasant experience with Makasa. Everything was flexible, adjusted to our personal preferences and arranged perfectly. The guides were very knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable and happy all the time. The price is right, especially for a private safari that is planned around your wishes. If we will go to Tanzania again, we will for sure book with Makasa again!

Fantastic and memorable.
5/5

We had a great time - with 25 of my fellow colleagues from Eagle media company. The trip to Amboseli National Park was a lifetime event. Thanks to the Kenya walk team for making the trip more than what anyone would have ever wished for. In future if we arrange for any other team building event kenya walk will surely be our choice.I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Amboseli National Park.Thanks so much

10 out of 10 for itinerary and organisation
5/5

African Ubuntu Safaris put together a fantastic safari and beach itinerary. The entire holiday was stress-free due to the excellent and perfectly co-ordinated service provided - not a minute of precious holiday time was wasted. Special thanks to Diederik for all the planning.

Safe, well organised, adventurous with a very comfortable set-up run by professional & jovial people
5/5

On all of the above accounts it was the best safari I have been on. We covered a good distance over fascinating terrain & were taught a great deal from a mixture of knowledgable people on our environment & the horses we rode. Two of the guides were Zoologists & the chef was a professional who would continue to amaze us with his culinary delights !
Everyone was well cared for & we had such a lot of fun.
As a result I have already done another of their rides & fully intend to go on all the others they have to offer .

An amazing Honeymoon with an INCREDIBLE company!
5/5

I researched over 30 companies and finally settled with Restoration Safaris for our pre-wedding honeymoon. Are we glad we did!

Bariki and the team at Restoration Safari are incredibly knowledgeable, professional and take great pride in delivering a quality safari experience. My fiancee and I were to lucky to spend 8 days touring Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti of course. We stayed at the most amazing accommodations that Bariki organized for us. With 20 years of experience under his belt, Bariki knows what people want from Safari and is thoughtful, considerate and conscious in his approach.

Bariki went above and beyond our safari needs. My fiancee briefly mentioned a beer that he would like to taste that he couldn't find. The next day, Bariki took us to a local shop that he had sourced out that had the beer.

We loved that we were supporting a local Tanzania company. With so much competition in and around Arusha, its so hard to make a decision, but I promise you that booking with Restoration Safaris is the best thing you can do.

Bariki, Mourine and the amazing team at Restoration Safaris - thank you so much for making this the best trip ever for us and we will be SURE to recommend you to every one we know!

One of a kind tour experiece
5/5

Being a kenyan but mostly in abroad on business I thought of doing a safari in November together with my fiancee.
Dancom tours was recommended to me by an old friend and as a matter of fact it was worth a choice.
A one week tour to lake Nakuru and Masai Mara National Park was the most amazing experience of my lifetime and so to say my fiancee's.

The service was awesome . Very friendly, Professional but down to earth tour guide and driver. To ice things up we were personal met by of the company's directors who was equally professional, helpful and very amiable.

I highly recommend Dancom Tours and Travel and will do another tour in Amboseli soon. This time probably stay in a tented camp.
