Possibly the best guide to Masai Mara
We have now returned home after an extremely good safari. Even though we only had two game drives, one evening and one whole day, I think we managed to experience Masai Mara the best way. Our driver G-man (Geeman) knew his way around and was well connected. The first knight we saw all of the normal animals, plus seven lions, cheetah and water buffalos. The next day he provided with about 22 more lions, elephants, hippos and crocodiles. We had some nice stops for toilet breaks and lunch.
We drived a really cool beige Toyota Landcruiser with a removable top. Perfect for the drive from Nairobi and also on the wild savanna.
We stayed at Sopa Lodges which was much better than we expected. It was way nicer than on the pictures, and the food and staff was exceptional.
Jockey tours always answered our questions asap, and they were really helpful and reliable.
The best of reviews from me and my family.

The Safari was excellent
The Safari was excellent!
We took the Safari with Destiny Explorers, and the service we received was excellent. Although we had some issues during the planning with Issa, the communication was always appropriate. We were able to add some places we wanted to go and Issa accommodated them. The places he chose to stay overnight for the seven days of the Safari were excellent, the service was impeccable, the driver and guide were very good and excellent people. I think we got the best value for money. In summary I would definitely recommend Destiny Explorers, we were all very satisfied. The service was impeccable.

Excellent life time experience
We had an incredible experience and were able to see many different animals and at the same time learn a lot about nature and animals. I am convinced that this is largely due to the wealth of experience of our guide Florid (if you are reading this, Asantesana for the whole experience). The entire organization and the joint optimization of the route with Safari Soles was flawless. The price was totally worth it, as Florid made sure, hat we have a Great time, even on non-safari days.

Lush Safari delivered a wonderful primate trekking experience in Rwanda & Uganda.
We did a 10 day primate trekking safari in Rwanda and Uganda. A few of the highlights:
We started in Kigali. The first stop was golden monkey viewing in Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda. The mountainous terrain and fertile soil was stunning.
We visited Bwindi for gorilla trekking. It was simply amazing to spend an hour watching and observing them up close (literally feet away). We also visited a village neighboring Bwindi. We loved meeting the children and seeing their school. We were greeted by one of the men in the tribe and one of the oldest residence. They showed us their homes and way of cooking. They performed traditional music and dance.
Queen Elizabeth National Park provided a big five experience. We also spent an afternoon on the channel between Lake George and Lake Edward. It offered great hippo, elephant, crocodile, water monitor and bird viewing.
Kibale National Park provided an up close and (too) personal view of chimpanzees. It was probably the wildlife highlight of the trip.
A tour is only as good as its guide. Our guide Derrick was wonderful. He ensured that the trip ran smoothly and comfortably. He is very knowledgeable and a wealth of information. On more than one occasion, Derrick altered the itinerary to accommodate weather impacts so all activities were completed.
Finally, here are some impressions on Rwanda and Uganda. Uganda is called the 'Pearl of Africa'. A visit will make clear why. The landscapes are stunning and the people are very, very friendly. The soil is so rich that everything grows in abundance. After our tour, Derrick dropped us in Jinja. We highly recommend spending some time here touring Lake Victoria and the Nile before returning home.

Knowledgable, great flexibility and communication and overall an excellent service
The best thing about our trip was our tour guide Sufiani. He was personable, friendly, knowledgeable and flexible with our plans. We did Gorilla trekking, river canoeing and also visited some local villages and museums. It was easy to communicate with Golden Rwanda, very quick to respond to emails in advance and Sufiani was only a WhatsApp away.

The safari experience I admit was the best decision to choose this company!
We had options to visit South Africa or Kenya. My partner and I started searching for a best safari destination, immediately we realized Tanzania is the best destination for our vacation. Then we contacted African Wanderlust Adventures from Belgium and Robert responded to us ASAP. He was helpful, kind and always ready to answer all the questions we had, but it wasn't until we met him in person that we realized how special he was.
We booked with them a one-day excursion starting in Arusha to go to Materuni waterfalls, 4 Days Mount Meru trekking and 4 Days safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti.
The Materuni day far exceeded our expectations as the coffee experience really blew us away. We witnessed the process of coffee making in a local village, sang and danced with the village guys, and it was exciting to say the least. This turned out to be one of the best days of our vacation.
Thereafter we had unforgettable 4 Days Mount Meru trekking with Fred as the guide and Chef Tenga who provided us with the best meals you wouldn’t expect to get up high on the mountains. The other supportive crew were charming and amazing, they assisted us fulfilling our dreams.
The safari experience I admit was the best decision to choose this company! Robert provided us with the best options for Safari and overnight stays. Our driver Steve was one of the nicest people that I've met. He was searching for the animals himself, helped us to spot them, provided information about animals. He took us to the best places for the best experience.
We recommend everyone to contact this agency for excursions, treks, safaris or any kind of services related to tourism because they are really reliable and kind!!!
