Peter was amazing, he went over and beyond for us. He was a great guide. slightly disappointing.
Peter was amazing, not only we had a great guide but we found a passionate safari friend.
We loved the stay in into the wild Serengeti. Overall food was disappointing, we would have appreciated more local and authentic food rather than touristic one. Great staff everywhere, particularly in Heritage camps.
Bouganvillea was disappointing definitely not luxury. Food was very basic, no entertainment was offered.
We believe Joagro Safari offered the good service however, we think this could’ve been done in four days and not five which should have cut down the costs. The first day was unnecessary and felt like a waste of time (Tarangeri). We recommended to do Ngorongoro on day one, then just spend the rest of the day in Serengeti.

Professionell, friendly and helpful.
The booking was easy and possible last minute. The driver was on time and picked us up at 6am in the morning.
We saw most of the animals, except for a cheetah, which is hard to spot.
The driver did a good job. However he should have been more like a tour guide. Would always recommend booking with Cytravel‘s lovely staff.

Tanzania will stay in my heart forever and ever
Tanzania is a great place to do safari....Wildlife is amazing and also landscapes. I went in January and the nature was beautiful, so green, I didn't imagine. The parks are big, Serengeti of course is on my top list but also Ngorongoro, Tarangire. The experience in campsites is absolutely wonderful. They are well organized with a cook who does all the best during your stay. I felt so comfortable there. I would like to go there again as soon as possibile. Their culture, Maasai people, are so interesting and fascintating. I would like to know more about them. Thanks to my tour operator Meru Slopes and my wonderful driver Jacob and cook Dulla. I loved them. Asante sana Tanzania!

Incredible!
I really enjoyed my trip with Beacon. Our guide John was very kind and gave us a great experience. Robert who was our point of contact before the trip was pretty quick to respond and helped us plan it kind of last minute. I did feel the burden of communication at times and had to reach out multiple instances to ensure they had all the essential info as well as to ensure I did. Despite some communication issues, I would definitely recommend Beacon for a Safari.

Great experience
We booked a 7 night safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli with our family of five.
All in all we had a fantastic week with our guide/driver Clinton, who was a very safe driver and positioned his car at the best spots for close encounters with wildlife. At the first game drive in Masai Mara we even spotted a leopard, which is the most difficult to find. Clinton advised us to change hotel in Nakuru, as the City Max is below standard according to the reviews. That was a good suggestion, the Buraha Zenoni was very clean and had a nice buffet spread. Miti Mingi Eco Camp (Masai Mara) was basic but clean and food was ok. In Amboseli we upgraded to the amazing, very luxurious Kibo safari camp but we heard Nyati (more basic, in the standard package) was also good.
The safari tour is great value for money, but I advise you to check and double check with Benson on arrangements made outside of the standard package, i.e. booking and payment of accommodation.
Logistics with other guests joining the car is also a bit of a challenge, especially if they have other plans than you.
Would have given 5 stars if logistics and bookings were flawless.

Nice travel agent. The people are very nice.
The service was excellent, except that we agreed to pick someone up at the airport for free and subsequently asked me for a fee. The price was cheap, the accommodation was mediocre and the overall value for money was good. Recommend it!

Adventurous and family friendly
Guide was well elaborative and knowledgeable with a high stake of professionalism. The experience was much more than the intentions as he gave us the right timing to be able to meet most of the animals .
