Worth every penny
Brian is an energetic and passionate young guide. On our first day, he asked if we’d like to take a boat ride on Lake Naivasha—a truly rare and unforgettable experience. Shortly after entering Lake Nakuru, we were lucky enough to spot both black rhinos and lions. To top it off, as we left our hotel on the second day, we even saw a mother white rhino with her calf!
In the Masai Mara, we had the incredible fortune of spotting leopards two days in a row, watching lions feeding and guarding their prey, and admiring majestic herds of elephants. We also thoroughly enjoyed the fascinating wildlife facts Brian shared whenever we encountered animals.

Communication is timely, and pricing breakdown is clear.
The entire safari was a wonderful experience. The ride was bumpy and dusty, but our guide did his best to close the windows and turn on the air conditioning promptly to keep the dust out.
We had a tyre puncture while watching the wildebeest crossing. Everyone felt upset that day, and we could tell the guide was under pressure. We set off early the next day and spent 11 hours on game drives, witnessing the wildebeest crossing four times in total.
The travel agency responded to our messages in a timely manner. The trip offers reasonable value for money and is absolutely worthwhile.

Please read all reviews carefully
I made contact with this company in July 2026 to book a dream African holiday. Reviews seemed pretty good but first alarm bell was when Lina sent the quote and itinerary and the description in the daily itinerary didn’t match the location. They had probably used AI to create the document. Then on further research I found they weren’t accredited via Kenya lead tourism body. I them messaged an accommodation provider who hadn’t heard of them. I just today thought I’d recheck the reviews and I have been vindicated by some horrific recent experiences from poor travellers! BEWARE!

Exceptional African Safari Experience with Williamson Adventures!
We had an unforgettable trip to Tanzania with Williamson Adventures, led by William and his amazing team. From the initial planning to the final day of our safari, everything was seamless, highly professional, and perfectly organized.
As a group of photography enthusiasts, we had specific requirements regarding equipment, vehicle setups, and daily schedules. William was extremely patient, responsive, and accommodating to all our needs. The 4WD safari jeeps were well-maintained, comfortable, and well-equipped with pop-up roofs and bean bags, which made our wildlife viewing and photography experience top-notch!
Our guides were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and expert spotters—thanks to them, we saw an incredible abundance of wildlife up close. The entire experience exceeded our expectations in every way.
If you are planning a trip to Tanzania, I highly recommend Williamson Adventures and William. They are reliable, trustworthy, and truly care about giving their guests the best adventure possible! 5 stars all the way!

A super five-star safari, planned end to end
We just returned from an epic safari in Kenya, and Rodah, Kim and Rio from Shanjoy made it one of the most memorable trips we've ever taken.
From the start, they designed a customized itinerary around our needs and fit it to our target budget. They put real time and effort into getting every detail right and stayed in constant communication before, during, and even as we were departing Nairobi to come back home. Their recommendations and guidance gave us complete confidence that everything was handled, so we never had to worry. They covered the trip end to end, including excellent recommendations for all five of our accommodations and their pick of top guides.
Kim, our guide, was extraordinary. He shared a tremendous amount of insight about Kenya's culture, people, and customs, and gave us a deep understanding of every animal we saw. His knowledge of birds was five-star-plus. He is also a superb driver, and on long highway stretches of up to five hours, he kept us safe and always got us there on time. He also positioned us perfectly for photos, with animals in the foreground against sunsets and mountains.
Rio, our guide in the Mara, knows the terrain incredibly well, has deep knowledge and answered all our questions. Even with the crowds, he placed us where we could watch animals behaving naturally in their habitat.
We give this trip a super five stars and highly recommend Rodah, Kim, and Rio. Thank you also to everyone behind the scenes at Shanjoy. We are talking about this trip to all our friends and family and count it among our fondest memories.

Review about Kruger National Park by Dominic Tennant
Saw so many animals in the magical scenery of Kruger’s bush. Amazing

Lions, elephants, cheetah, giraffe, rhinoceros, buffalo, hyena, penguins and whales, in one trip!
We wanted a holiday to see African animals in the wild. We were not expecting such a vast array. My children were blown away by a bushwalk were they encountered a cheetah. The safari at Kruger did not disappoint seeing a hyena trying (but failing) to attach a zebra. Loved our trip and will recommend to everyone. Our lodge was so luxurious it has a bath outside!

Wild Uganda Is A Great Operator
Wild Uganda did a spectacular job designing our 12 day safari in Uganda and Rwanda. Our contact Ernest was always there to answer our questions over WhatsApp and our guide/driver Kasim was thoughtful, very polite, helpful, very informative and a great driver (important because the roads are difficult in spots and town traffic is fast). Our lodges were all very comfortable with helpful staff, lovely décor and abundant food at meal times. We could also have flavored waters, tea/coffee in the afternoons, with cookies or fruit to hold us until dinner. You will find the people of Uganda and Rwanda are polite, reserved and dedicated to you as a guest. I highly, highly recommend Wild Uganda and I feel extremely lucky to have picked them to give us such a marvelous trip.

Smooth operation with the best guide
Our tour took us to Rwanda and Uganda. We saw the Kigale Genocide Memorial, the Golden Monkeys, the Mountain Gorillas in Uganda, and Lake Bunyonyi. The scenery was stunning in both countries and the close encounters with the animals they are working hard to protect was something special.
Every step of the way our guide, Isaac, was on time, helpful, and smiling. He got us where we needed to be, helped us navigate the national park staging areas and boarder crossings, and was great company throughout our time in these beautiful and welcoming countries.
Additionally, he went the extra mile to ensure we made it to the airport in the middle of the night for a very early flight.
