Amazing Big Five đ
We absolutely loved our safari experience! We didnât just see the Big Five â we also spotted the Small Five and even the âBad Five,â which made it even more exciting and unique.
Our guide, Jared, was fantastic â he seemed to find animals as if he could literally smell them. And Pius, the chef, was excellent: delicious meals and great care every day.
We captured so many unforgettable moments: we watched a young cheetah eating its prey while its mother stayed nearby, calmly observing â and we were only about 10 meters away from this scene. We also saw a leopard resting right by the road and then walking away into the sunset, plus many other incredible sightings.
We highly recommend this safari to everyone. Thereâs nothing like waking up inside a national park, enjoying the wild nature, and watching animals playing and moving around â all visible with the naked eye. These emotions are truly worth experiencing at least once in your life.

Top Safari operator
Imara Africa is hands down the best tour operator in Kenya. I spent more than a week going back and forth with about 10 operators and researching and finally settled with Imara. Best quality price.
The service has been excellent from the beginning to the end. All of Imara's excursion are customizable, adding and removing activities, excursions, upgrading hotels, cars,etc.
No hidden fees!!! and the communication was great.
On top of it, the team was very accommodating. They picked us up at the airport at 5am, so we wouldn't wait extra time until 7. The entire team showed up to welcome us and provided us with a gift bag :-) which was very considerate.
Our driver, Edward was AMaZING. he went above and beyond to make sure that we spot all the animals. He is very knowledgeable of the area and all the wild life.
Will definitely use Imara again and would recommend 1000%

Amazing Safari Experience
We booked a 10-day Kenya safari with Imara, and it turned out to be one of the best travel decisions weâve ever made.
Our itinerary covered Amboseli National Park, Nairobi National Park, Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Giraffe Centre, Maasai Mara, and even included a visit to a Maasai village. From start to finish, Imara handled everything seamlesslyâaccommodation, food, park entry fees, and logistics were all taken care of with zero errors or last-minute surprises.
We had reached out to multiple tour operators before finalizing our trip, and Imara offered the most competitive pricing with complete transparency. There were absolutely no hidden costs, which gave us a lot of confidence. A special mention to Wendy, who was incredibly responsive, patient, and accommodating. She answered all our queries promptly and incorporated multiple itinerary changes until we were fully satisfied before confirming the booking.
At the start of the trip, the Imara team personally met us at our hotel and gave us a detailed briefing about the itinerary, game drives, and what to expectâthis set a very professional and reassuring tone. After we made the advance payment, they took a couple of days to complete all bookings and shared the vouchers as promised. Everything was smooth and well-organized.
Now, coming to our guideâAnthony. Wow. He was simply brilliant. A joyful, warm, and extremely knowledgeable person, Anthony made the safari truly unforgettable. He kept us engaged throughout the journey with fascinating stories and detailed explanations about the animals and the parks.
On the very first day, he confidently promised that we would see the Big 5 in Maasai Mara âand incredibly, we spotted all of them on the first day itself! Not only that, we also saw the Ugly 5, and thanks to Anthonyâs strong network with other guides, we were able to spot almost all animals in the park.
Anthony has an exceptional understanding of the parks and animal behavior. All we had to do was trust his instinctsâwhether it was starting very early in the morning, going for full-day game drives, or splitting the drives into two sessions. He also planned the drives based on the animals we wanted to see, which made the experience even more personalized. Whenever we requested stops for photography or animal sightings, he was more than happy to oblige. His driving was safe, smooth, and very professional.
Overall, this safari exceeded all our expectations. Imara delivers exactly what they promiseâand more. I would highly recommend Imara to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. Youâll be in excellent hands.

Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari Experience with Safari Soles
We had an absolutely incredible experience with Safari Soles, and we couldnât recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, the team was extremely responsive and flexible, thoughtfully tailoring our safari to match our interests and pace. Everything went off seamlessly, which made the entire experience feel effortless and stress-free.
This safari was part of our honeymoon, and Safari Soles truly went above and beyond to make us feel celebrated and special throughout the trip. A huge thank-you to Furahini, our tour operator, who did a phenomenal job organizing every detail and showed genuine care when one of us became sick and needed to go to the hospital. Having that level of support in an unfamiliar place meant the world to us.
Our guide, Abdul, was exceptional. His deep knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and local culture greatly enriched our experience. He was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and professional, and he made sure every day of the safari ran smoothly. We enjoyed all of the picnics and time spent in conversation on our drives â we learned so much from him and always felt well taken care of.
Overall, if youâre considering a safari in Tanzania, choose Safari Soles and ask for Abdul as your guide. They helped make our honeymoon unforgettable, and weâll cherish these memories forever!

Pembury listens to requests and responds accordingly in a professional manner.
We are grateful to Anya and her Pembury team for pleanning our fantastic South African Tour. We miss South Africa already. All of the arrangements Anya made for the tour were spot on from the greetings and transfers from the airports, the hotels, tours and activities. Every aspect progressed smoothly in a professional, friendly and timely matter. Anya took our requests seriously including the pace of the trip, the choice and location of the hotels and the activities. The restaurants and hotels were genuinely happy to share our anniversary with us which made the visits even more special. We have a better understanding of the beauty of South Africa, its people, its animal treasures and especially its food as we tried lots and lots of food. The safari at Seti exceeded our expectations as we saw the big 5. Planned activities at Victoria Falls, Sabi Sabi, Cape Town and Franschhoek were all memorable and highly enjoyed. We cannot recommend Anya and Pembury Tours enough.
Thank you for all of your help making our tour so exciting and memorable,

Thorough, Accommodating and in Sync with what we were looking for.
We just did a 2 week safari and beach adventure with Tapestry of Africa. It was our first safari and we wanted to make sure we got everything as perfect as possible. During the planning phase I worked with Matt and Hilda to make adjustments to our itinerary as we wanted to eliminate 1 night stays as much as possible and decided to fly between Nairobi and Masai Mara as well as between the Masai and the Serengeti. All the changes were handled smoothly and in the end we ended up with a perfect customized adventure. Hilda was great to work with and very detail oriented. We decided to leave our last safari camp a day early and head over to Zanzibar for an extra day. Hilda was fabulous in arranging the last minute changes to our flights and booking an extra day at the Melia. She also arranged a last minute balloon ride for us as well as a game drive in Nairobi while we had a 12 hour wait for our flights home. Everyone at Tapestry was great to work with and very pleasant. From the time we landed in Nairobi and were met by Albert at the airport, we got the feeling that we booked with a great group of people. Bonifiace and Andrew were the guides we had in Kenya and Tanzania, both felt like good friends by the time we said our goodbye. Same with Joseph who took us out for the last game drive. All 3 guys are knowledgeable, personable and very accommodating. Still don't know how Andrew was able to spot the Dung Beetle while driving. The Big 5 are what most people want to see, but seeing a couple of The Small 5 was very cool too, and of course The Ugly 5. The vehicles were great, comfortable and fun. In the end, we had an absolutely incredible experience, saw far more animals than we ever imagined. Everywhere we went the food was fabulous and the accommodations were superb especially the Nairobi Serena, Kilima Camp in Masai Mara, Serengeti Serena, Lion's Paw, and the Melia in Zanzibar. Would definitely recommend Tapestry of Africa. We are already talking about a return visit.
