5 day fly in safari tour
The team at Telly Africa Safaris have been excellent throughout. William organised and answered all of our questions regarding our 5 day fly in safari, despite me and my wife booking fairly last minute. Before we left the UK we had a safari briefing call with William which provided all the assistance we needed just before departing, which included the companies emergency contact number. We were met by our taxi driver, Mohammad, in Zanzibar who was already waiting for us with a sign at Zanzibar airport. Mohammed was extremely helpful, kind and had a large comfortable A/C car. The next morning he was on time to pick us back up before our flight to the Serengeti. Flights organised by Telly were excellent and again all on time. When we landed in the Serengeti, Aaron our guide, was already waiting for us. We got started after a short welcome and introduction. The safari Jeep was great, fully stocked with unlimited water, coke, two brands of beer, three bottles of wine, two binoculars and was extremely reliable, never breaking down and no squeaky brakes like other tours. If you get Aaron as your guide you get his 22 years of experience. Not only is this important to spot animals (he was the first guide in one of the national parks to spot a leopard, no idea now he saw it!), but also he is clearly respected by all other guides which is important as they share information as you drive around. On top of this he has an incredible mental map of the national parks, so always gets to the big spots quickly when needed… this is also beneficial as he has the experience to go places other guides with less experience would become quickly lost in as the network of roads is complex and extensive. Our trip was packed full of once in a lifetime experiences/ sights, but on reflection, without a great guide, I would imagine you would only experience just a few, if lucky. To summarise we saw countless amounts of animals. We saw the big five and our highlights babies elephants, tree climbing lion, 11 black rhinos (from a distance but dancing viewing with binoculars), 2 leopards, 5 cheaters (including a baby). Aaron is great at spotting, explaining and allowing you time with the animals as you wish…the trip is very much yours to direct… should you wish to move quicker…or stay with a animal longer. Hotels and the daily lunch boxes provided by the hotels were good… we never went hungry! At the end of our trip Aaron dropped us back to the airport with the perfect amount of time for our domestic flight back to Zanzibar. Despite our flight landing 30 minutes early Mohamed was actively tracking the flight and was there again to great us.. stress free. Mohammed then comfortably transferred us across the island safely to our hotel which ended our trip with Telly Africa Safaris. Myself and my wife have traveled extensively around the world, this was one of the best trips to date. For us the experience was 10/10. There are so many companies out there… which made it hard for us to pick… but we are thankful we found this team! Friendly and experienced! I will be recommending Telly Africa Safaris to all my friends and family

Amazing trip in amazing country with amazing agency @ Ecovic Tours!
Over all the trip was great. We saw a lot of the country and a lot of birds and animals. The places we stayed were great and the staff at the different locations including Vincent, the manager at Ecovic Tours office were all friendly and very helpful. The Gorilla trekking was difficult but amazing and very worth it!!! Trekking to see the Chimpanzees and the Golden Monkeys were also amazing.
We were very surprised at the beautiful countryside and the variety of different wildlife in Uganda. From the Rhino Reserve, to Murchison Falls National Park, to Queen Elizabeth National Park the sightings were amazing. Definitely do the off-road experience in Queen Elizabeth State Park otherwise the lions and leopards are far away.
Bwindi with the Gorillas was a once in a life time experience. If you're not in shape, take the easy hike! The medium hike was 2.5 hours up and down in the steep forest- hire porter as they are a life saver. The hike out was another 2 hours straight up!
We really enjoyed the walking safari in Lake Mburo National Park. It was pretty amazing to walk with the giraffe, the zebras, and the other animals. If you like safaris, Uganda is a must! And Ecovic Tours is the best agency to plan your trip with!

Nick at African Skimmer Safaris is extremely knowledgeable and professional.
Nick at African Skimmer Safaris is the best and most professional guide I have used. He is exceptionally skilled in his knowledge of wildlife and how best and when to see them. Nick is very hands on when planning your Kenyan safari but can also facilitate trips to the beautiful Kenyan coast and also a guided climb up Mount Kenya. I am very glad I trusted a Nick for my safari and Kenya excursion. A lot goes into planning a successful Kenyan trip and Nick makes us very easy. I look forward to working with Nick again and highly recommend him and his company. Thanks Nick!!!

Amazing 14 day customised Safari & beach trip
We organised a custom 14 day Kenya Safari and beach trip with Peter and from the beginning he was so helpful. I asked for multiple quotes for many many different camp and hotel options and each time Peter would provide a quick response and give a breakdown on costs which made it so much easier to help decide which places we wanted to stay.
The process of payment was easy and efficient, we paid 50% deposit and the rest was paid around 1 month before the trip.
Everything about booking this trip ran so smoothly and this continued once landing in Kenya. Our drivers were always on time and so lovely. If we had any queries during our stay, Peter always responded so quick to our WhatsApp messages and was on hand to advise of times of pick ups/drop offs etc.
We had Anthony who picked us up from the airport to our hotel in Nairobi, drove us to the elephant sanctuary & giraffe Sanctuary and also made the 7hour trip dropping us off at our first camp! We stayed at two different camps within the Massai Mara region and then travelled to the coast for a beach stay returning to Narobi for one night before our flight home. The organisation from Peter was outstanding, he organised our transportation to the camps, organised our flights from the bush to the beach (which include the small safari link planes), every aspect of transport from the trip was organised by Peter and we couldn't be more grateful for his help and service.
This was our first ever trip on a safari and also to Kenya and the service from the team at Africa FlashMc could not have been better. We would definitely use them again for future trips and I would 100% recommend them.
Once again, a heartfelt thank you to Peter and the entire team. This truly was a trip of a lifetime, and it wouldn’t have been possible without all of you!
(p.s As we stayed in conservancies, we had specific drivers from the camps for our game drives therefore didn't have the tour guides from Africa FlashMc conducting these, hence why we haven't commented on that aspect.)

Outstanding service
I want to shout out to Dallas for outstanding service provided to us for a 1 day safari trip to Mikumi National Park. From booking online before the trip, communication throughout, picking up and dropping off from the hotel - everything was just excellent. The safari itself is one of the best experiences we had. We have managed to see pretty much all animals including lions, hippos, giraffes, and even spotted a leopard. All communication was smooth and helpful, all transactions were flowless. We really enjoyed this safari which was the highlight of our trip to Zanzibar. Wish you all the best!

Unforgettable 5-Day Safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safari!
Our 5-day safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safari was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we landed in Tanzania, everything was impeccably organized—from airport transfers to the seamless transitions between parks. We explored Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, and every day brought breathtaking wildlife encounters that exceeded all our expectations.
Our guide, Edward, was truly exceptional—his deep knowledge, passion for wildlife, and incredible spotting skills made this trip unforgettable. Thanks to him, we witnessed some of the most special and rare sightings: a group of cheetahs in action, lions feasting on a zebra, an incredibly close encounter with a pride of lions, and herds of elephants and zebras moving gracefully across the savannah. Every major animal we had hoped to see was right there before our eyes! Beyond his expertise, it was a pleasure to have him guide us through the days, sharing fascinating insights, answering all our questions, and making every moment even more special.
One of the absolute highlights was the balloon safari over the Serengeti at sunrise—an indescribable experience that gave us a completely different perspective of the vast plains. And to top it all off, we even spotted a rhino, a rare and majestic sight that felt like the perfect finale to our adventure.
A special thanks to Norbelt for the impeccable organization and for always being there to ensure everything ran smoothly. His dedication and attention to detail made our safari stress-free and truly enjoyable.
From start to finish, Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safari delivered a flawless experience—every detail was taken care of with precision and care, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the magic of the African wilderness. If you’re looking for a safari company that combines professionalism, expertise, and unforgettable experiences, look no further.
A huge thank you to Edward and his team for making this the adventure of a lifetime! We cannot recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safari highly enough!

Top-Notch Company and Guides
I have taken numerous guided trips in multiple countries, and Arnold and Brighton are as good as they get. From the start, communication was clear and responsive. Once we arrived in Tanzania, they made themselves available for anything we needed. The Land Cruiser was stocked with water and other drinks, and they were willing to stop for anything we were interested in. They tailored the tour to our preferences and were always willing to do extra for us. Their pricing was fair, and they genuinely wanted to ensure we had an excellent time. I highly recommend Major Treks and Safaris.
