Amazing experience
Certainly! Here’s an appreciation message in advanced English for a safari guide:
Dear [Guide’s Name],
I wanted to take a moment to express my profound gratitude for the exceptional experience you provided during our safari. Your profound knowledge of the ecosystem, combined with your genuine passion for wildlife, elevated the entire journey to an unforgettable level. Your meticulous attention to detail, patient guidance, and ability to seamlessly weave fascinating stories into the narrative made every moment incredibly enriching.
It was evident that you have a deep respect for the environment and its creatures, and your dedication to preserving the natural world is truly inspiring. You not only made us feel safe but also gave us a profound sense of connection to the wilderness, which is something I will carry with me for years to come.
Thank you for your professionalism, your kindness, and for helping us see the beauty of the wild in a new light. It was truly a privilege to be under your guidance.

Amazing trip with lots of expertise!
We went on a 2-week-trip with Malagasya Travel and got to see a huge part of beautiful Madagascar. The whole trip has been organised perfectly with nice hotels, a great mix of local restaurants and the best activities we could wish for. A huge shout-out goes to our guides Luciano and Love who have been perfect! Definitely a recommendation!

Outstanding
We did a 5 day safari - Nairobi-Amboseli-Lake Nakuru-Masi Mara-Nairobi.
This was just the right amount of time to see 3 different environments (mountain, lake and savanna), and all the animals.
Now having understood the driving times, I would have probably changed the order and ended in Mombasa, instead of returning to Nairobi.
Dec/Jan is a great time to come, before the rush of tourists for the migration.
Oakland service was fantastic from the second we engaged with them through safaribookings.com. The driver they provided was great - knowledgeable, funny and also understood when we just wanted to snooze and not chat on some of the long drives between Parks. We were keen to learn all about Kenyan culture, so thankfully we had Mr Henry to educate us. On the game drives, it was clear he had huge respect for the animals and their environment (when there were other drivers being intimidating and disrespectful of both).
As with everything, you get what you pay for - we mixed it up, with some standard lodges, and the last 2 night in the Masi Mara in luxury, over NYE, with a sunrise air ballon ride on New Year’s Day. Worth every penny. With Park fees so high, the temptation is to do only one night in each, which is a shame, because you don’t get enough time to enjoy some spectacular accommodation, food and hospitality.
With so many safari operators here, it’s difficult to know which to pick - I can only say that Mr Henry, our driver and Oakland have been excellent in every respect.

Amazing Safari experience, perfectly smooth organization
First things first: we had the best time on our safari.
I contacted Axis per mail about 3 weeks before our arrival in Kenya, asking for an offer for a 4 days/3 nights safari starting in Nairobi and finishing in Mombasa/Diani beach. Lennox came back to me with an offer and itinerary with a selection of accommodations for us to choose from - 1.350 USD per person, for the two of us incl. all accommodations, meals, park entry fees, our driver/guide, water. We chose our preferred accomodations, paid a 200 USD deposit. Lennox was super friendly and very quick in answering all our remaining questions, then we travelled to Kenya.
Our driver/guide Khalifa was perfectly on time to pick us up from our hotel in Nairobi, we briefly checked in at the Axis office in Nairobi CBD to meet Cynthia and complete the rest of the formalities/pay the remaining amount we had agreed on. Then, off we went. After a couple hours drive we arrived at Sopa Lodge near Amboseli National Park, checked in and headed to the National Park for amazing afternoon - horses of elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, lions, a breathaking sunset.. what an experience. Tired and happy we got back to the Lodge, ate, slept and headed out for another game drive early before breakfast. Elephants passing in the rising sun in front of the Kilimanjaro was quite something, again. After breakfast at Sopa Lodge we departed the Amboseli area for Tsavo West.
After a few hours of driving through the most beautiful landscapes we arrived at Severin Safari Camp, our favorite accomodation of the trip - room, food, atmosphere was all over the top. We checked in and headed out for another game drive incl. a visit of Mzima springs. We saw elephants, zebras, numerous different gazelles, lions, a crocodile, and more. The next day saw the most spectacular drive - we drove from Tsavo West to Tsavo East through very diverse and most beautiful landscapes, seeing all kinds of flora and fauna, absolutely amazing, before arriving at Ashnil Aruba Lodge in the early afternoon.
Khalifa, who had been the most amazing driver/guide/wildlife spotter the whole time, offered us another game drive later in the afternoon but we were so full of impressions that we decided to rest for the remaining day. After a good night’s sleep we departed Tsavo East after breakfast, again seeing a couple of elephants, giraffes and zebras on our way out of the National Park. Heading into Mombasa, Khalifa showed us around the city - his hometown - and instead of taking the fastest way, we got the great experience of crossing from the Northern to the Southern part of the city by ferry, before it was time to say goodbye when Khalifa - the best guy, really - dropped us off at our hotel at Diani beach.
Long story short: an 11/10 experience. Amazing safari, perfectly smooth organization, the very best time. Most highly recommended!
PS: The only thing we would slightly adapt if we did it again - you might want to squeeze in a “rest day”/an extra night at Severin Safari Camp. This lodge was absolutely perfect and we would have loved to stay there for a day and be able to indulge the facilities there for a little longer. Aside from that - we wouldn’t change a thing.

Very professional and amazing.
My experience was amazing. Kafu/ Deo is very professional, he picked us on time and even gave us a mini game drive before the major one which was scheduled for the next day. I’d recommend them in a heart beat.

Top professional Agency for a great Safari.
We travelled a lot all over the world: Mauritius, Thailand, Mexico, Seychelles, USA, Egypt, Maldives, Far East, all over Europe... but the Safari we had with Faithfull Adventures was the best organized tour we ever had in our life. Tanzania is a wonderful country and you can't miss visiting its parks. Thanks to the professionality of Innocent we had a wonderful 3 days Safari for an excellent price for value. Then Idris was the best guide I ever met in my life. It's not easy to select an Agency to organize your Safari, there are so many..., but if you pick Faithfull Adventures you will never regret, it's for sure one of the best choice. Strongly recomended! Thanks Innocent and thanks Idris. After this experience we are now planning to come back in July/August to climb Kilimangiaro and visit Serengeti. We know we can rely on Faithfull Adventures for the best experience also next time.

Professional, helpful, caring and always respond on time
A Memorable Experience with Serengeti Landmark
Our family recently had the pleasure of traveling with Serengeti Landmark on a safari trip in Tanzania, and we were thoroughly impressed by the overall experience. From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism and a deep commitment to making our journey unforgettable.
The safari drivers were outstanding—always smiling, incredibly knowledgeable, and ready to answer all our questions with professionalism and patience. Their expertise made every game drive an exciting and educational experience.
Another highlight was the food. We were fortunate to have a talented chef accompany us during the safari, who prepared delicious meals that added a touch of home to our adventure. His friendly demeanor and constant smile made the experience even more enjoyable.
The accommodations during the safari, whether in lodges or camps, were comfortable, with great service that added to the overall enjoyment of our trip.
If there’s one area for improvement, it would be the hotel used on the first and last days in Arusha. Upgrading to a better-quality hotel for arrival and departure days would make the experience truly flawless.
Overall, Serengeti Landmark provided us with an incredible adventure, and we are grateful for their hard work and attention to detail. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

Personalized services
I have used Bison Safaris for two family trips. Maggie gives personalized attention and keen to understand your needs and budget. Our first trip with Bison Safaris was in December 2023 to Masai Mara everything was well organized and was available on call when we needed to clarify access to the hotel through the park our stay at Enkorok Mara was well organized and we enjoyed. December 2024 she organized our vacation to Watamu, from booking SGR tickets and check in. Despite arriving early in Watamu she had ensured that our hotel rooms were available earlier than the booking in time and her expertise in room selection ensured we got rooms away from the restaurant and pool which were quiet. Maggie is available on call and responds quickly to any questions and clarifies any concerns one has. Thank you Maggie and team.

Unforgettable Experience
Audence our guide couldn’t have been more accommodating and was fantastic at spotting all the animals. If it wasn’t for his knowledge we would never have seen the leopard or had such a wonderful and close experience with the lions. His bird spotting was unbelievable. Would highly recommend Lulu Safari’s.
