Knowledgeable, reliable and friendly.
We were given Destiny's details by a friend who had used them...a good recommendation.
They had a very competitive price for our 4 day safari and picked us up exactly on time at our accommodation in Moshi. Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew the best places to go. The accommodation included on the safari were of a good standard. One night at an hotel and 2 nights in a tent/lodge in the Serengeti.
We would definitely use them if we ever return and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Excellent and reliable tour operator

Great tour with Chris Sanyu of Native Africa Tours. He was considerate, knowledgeable, honest, caring and an excellent driver. We all loved him.
The tour included all hotels, meals, tours and transportation for the 5 of us in a customized safari vehicle for 14 days at just $4,500 (without airfare) per person. Itineraries can be designed around your interests and time available. Highly recommend Chris and his team if you want a fabulous Africa adventure.

Incredible nature sights and educative tour guide in Mikumi National park
I traveled with Kihindo Tours and Safaris to Mikumi National Park in December, accompanied by three friends. Our tour guide, William, picked us up from our accommodation in Dar es Salaam early in the morning, around 6 a.m., and we drove together to our hotel near the park. In the evening, we visited a Maasai village where we had the opportunity to take part in a Maasai tour. The guide taught us about their way of life and showed us around, which was an enriching experience. We then returned to the hotel and enjoyed dinner at their restaurant.
The following day began with breakfast at 6 a.m., followed by a short drive to the national park. On the way, we already saw several animals, including zebras, antelopes, and giraffes. We quickly realized that luck was on our side, as we managed to spot four of the Big Five in just a few hours (there are no rhinos in Mikumi, which is the fifth of the Big Five). Throughout the day, William, our exceptional guide, took the time to explain the characteristics of each animal we encountered and answered all of our questions with great care. Lunch was served at a restaurant within the park, where we were accompanied by monkeys roaming around the area, all while enjoying a beautiful view of the savannah. We ended the game drive around 5 pm and were served dinner back at the hotel.
On the second day of the safari, the weather turned rainy, but this did not bother us, as we were in a vehicle with a roof—unlike most other safari companies we observed. It was actually quite beautiful to witness the dramatic transformation of the landscape as the rain began, and it added to the surreal feeling of being immersed in nature. We informed William that we wanted to experience a more relaxed, "slow TV"-style safari, simply watching the animals at our own pace, which he was more than happy to accommodate. His flexibility and attentiveness made the experience even more enjoyable, and I appreciated this personal touch, which was a major advantage of having a private guide.
On the third day, we had a travel day, as we drove back to Dar es Salaam and were dropped off at the ferry terminal for our trip to Zanzibar. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Kihindo Tours and Safaris to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania.

A beautiful journey that never ends
I have been a customer of BMS (best Memories Safaris) for a long time and can only say that I am always happy to return. This time I left everything to Isaac, the organisation, the parks, the lodges, and it was perfect. We started from Nairobi via Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara to Lake Navaisha. One of Kenya's many scenic highlights. We were lucky enough to see the ‘BIG FIVE’ in their natural environment. The tranquillity and professional knowledge of our guide Joshua was particularly impressive. The warm hospitality of Kenya, together with the choice of natural yet luxurious accommodation made this trip an unforgettable experience. Of course, the next trip with best Memories Safaris is already planned. What I would like to emphasise here is that BMS is always fair in terms of value for money. There is stable communication right from the start and the vehicles are roadworthy. Invoices are transparent and you have the option of paying in different currencies. I personally prefer KSH. Service is a top priority. Asante Sana Isaac, for this wonderful experience.

They were helpful, efficient, knowledgeable, and supportive.
Overall, my experience with Moroka was amazing. I gave them my dates and a few things I wanted to do and they put together and amazing itinerary for me for a great price and my tour guide was even able to add more activities on as we went. Everything was taken care of and organized and they were always available to answer questions and support wherever needed. I would absolutely recommend them and my tour guide William who was also amazing.

First class! - Adventure Africa Expedition will always be our "Go To" company!
This was our first trip to Africa as part of a large group following a varied itinerary over 2 weeks. The group had been advised by our Kenyan friend who was leading the group, to be very careful whilst in Kenya, and to only use people whom she recommended and knew to be trustworthy......hence our introduction to Dickson.
As part of our trip, I was trying to arrange a meeting with 2 groups of people (I only knew of via a church) from the Lake Victoria area of Kenya to hand over a large suitcase of supplies and equipment - things to make life easier - which I had been gathering for over a year. It was proving very difficult for me to arrange this meeting, however Dickson came to the rescue and suggested the ideal meeting place and facilities in Nakuru.
Prior to the arranged return trip from Nairobi to Nakuru, Dickson came to meet myself and my husband at our hotel the night before and went through all of the arrangements. We immediately liked Dickson and trusted him, so our minds were put at ease for my big trip. Dickson quoted me a very reasonable price for the journey - by comparison, the hotel staff quoted me 3 to 4 times more money than Dickson had quoted me, for transport for the same journey which would have made the journey unaffordable!
At Nakuru, I had offered to pay for lunch for the 2 groups. I was busy dividing out and handing over the donation to each of the 2 church elders, and in my absence, the remaining party were busy over ordering meals and drinks, and then, in addition, ordering full meals to take away.....as if the sky was the limit. By the time myself and the 2 elders returned to the restaurant, the bill was enormous, and getting larger by the minute - the waitress was genuinely upset by the group's grasping behaviour. I was upset and in shock. I was not expecting my generosity to be abused in that way. My credit card would not work and I did not have nearly enough in my Kenyan Shilling holiday account to cover the bill. Ever reliable Dickson came to the rescue again and took care of everything : he maxed out one of his cards and also had to withdraw cash to cover the bill on my behalf, with only my word that I would pay him back as soon as I could. I was and still am so grateful to Dickson for helping me out of a very difficult and embarrassing situation.
My 8 hour Nairobi - Nakuru round road trip with Dickson itself was the most brilliant experience - an unexpected gem! It was an "epic" road trip in every way, and is a wonderful memory. I knew I was completely in safe hands; being transported in a high quality vehicle and had the best tour guide telling me all about Kenya and wildlife etc throughout the journey.
After that, my husband and I were transported by Dickson for the remainder of our journeys around Kenya because we know that he is efficient, reliable, communicative and he gives us excellent value for money ; and he is a thoroughly decent and trustworthy man.
We will return to Africa for another safari, and will have no hesitation in booking with Dickson Wambugu & Adventure African Expedition.

Excellent organisation with quick responses and very helpful overall
Everything was handled very easily by Informative African Tour.
Gift was able to clearly explain what the tour included and two payment options were provided.
On the day, the tour was very well organised and we were able to see nearly all of the animals. We were also provided a delicious lunch and drinks throughout.
The driver, Simon, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly through.
10/10. Would highly recommend.

The company is top notch, they are helpful, responsive, with a highly qualified and wonderful staff.
This team knows how to do it right.
THESE FOLKS KNOW HOW TO CREATE LIFE LONG MEMORIES!
The office staff has "can do" attitude and never makes mistakes. They created a jam packed itinerary that was fun and interesting.
The Guides are phenomenal, speak English well, conduct great tours, can find an amazing variety of vistas and animals while keeping you going answering any questions about the wildlife, the area we were in and had great knowledge to share. Plus they are enthusiastic and well versed about Tanzania, it's economy, politics, history and it's future prospects. We were never bored.
Final points: The vehicles were perfect for the task. The accommodations, food and hospitality were world class. Everything happened as planned, on time and I can think of a single problem/ issue to discuss.
I am suggesting Tanzania Choice Safaris to everyone who asks about our trip.
