incredible safari experience
5/5

We had an incredible safari experience thanks to this ground operator. From the moment we landed, everything was handled seamlessly — airport pickup, lodge bookings, and daily game drives were all perfectly organized. The vehicles were comfortable and well-maintained, and the communication throughout the trip was prompt and clear. Our guide Gasper is calm and dependable — wish he'd been a bit more outgoing! Thanks to him we completed the Big Five and even watched an amazing hunt in action. Unforgettable experience! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a smooth and memorable safari adventure!

Exceptional safari experience with attentive service from start to finish!
5/5

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Extra Miles Unique Adventures! From the very beginning, Donnah was incredibly responsive and proactive in all communications. She checked in with us throughout the entire trip to ensure everything was going smoothly. What truly touched us was when Donnah personally welcomed us at JKIA airport upon arrival with a thoughtful customized gift - such a warm gesture! She also accompanied us on our last day exploring Nairobi, which made our farewell even more special.
Our driver/guide Eric was with us throughout the safari. He was excellent at communicating departure times and daily itineraries each day, and his wildlife spotting skills were impressive! We were thrilled to see the Big Five, Ugly Five, and many other amazing animals. The only minor note is that the vehicle was slightly older, making some of the road journeys a bit bumpy, but this didn't detract from our overall enjoyment.
Amos, our Nairobi guide, was extremely professional and passionate. He enthusiastically shared the rich history and culture of Nairobi with us, making our city tour both educational and engaging.
Overall, we are extremely satisfied with this safari journey and highly recommend Extra Miles Unique Adventures to fellow travelers!

Perfect adventure
5/5

Apodiformes Adventures provided fantastic, thoughtful service throughout our entire African safari. Our guide Big Tom was outstanding: caring, quick-witted and flexible. He expertly spotted wildlife across the savannah and explained animal habits vividly, and always responded quickly to our requests. What impressed us deeply was an extra favour we asked for. After our safari, we planned to travel to Egypt and needed help printing our Egypt visa documents. We reached out to the operator, and they immediately coordinated with our hotel in Nairobi for our last night stay. They arranged to have the printed documents ready in an envelope and handed directly to us upon check-in. Plus, Big Tom went above and beyond — after a long safari day, he drove overnight for our early flight and guided our Amboseli tour with merely 3 hours’ rest. This team is reliable, attentive and truly cares about travellers. Cannot recommend them enough!

5/5

We had a great experience with Adventures on Wheels. From when we first starting to make arrangements for this tour the communication was always prompt. What they organized for us was above and beyond. Our guide Bhuki was very easy going and full of knowledge. We did a 8 day trip into Botswana and i would recommend this to everyone.

Peter was knowledgeable about animals.
5/5

Peter was knowledgeable about the animals and the birds as well. His introduction and safety information was excellent. I appreciated his driving skills and his determination to show us as many animals as possible for we only had 6 hours. On this safari we were blessed to see a lion up close, elephants, giraffes, rhinoceros, crocodile, hippos and several other animals. I definitely recommend this safari!!!

Steve was super amazing trying so much to bring us to the best view spot
5/5

We had an amazing safari in Tarangire National Park with our guide, Steve! He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about his job.

He made a huge effort to get us as close as possible to the elephants, always looking for the best spots and making the experience unforgettable. On our first day, we were lucky enough to see elephants, zebras, warthogs, giraffes, and many other incredible animals.

The food was also absolutely delicious and exceeded our expectations!

A big thank you to Steve for an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tarangire! 🐘🦒🦓❤️
Thank you STEVE 💪🏼💪🏼❤️❤️

Beyond Wildlife: A Heartfelt Tanzania Safari with Lappet Faced Safaris
5/5

We spent an incredible 7 days on a private safari tour with Lappet Faced Safaris, and this trip has exceeded all our expectations in every possible way. It is absolutely the most genuine, touching, and unique travel experience we have ever had in Africa.

Our entire safari schedule was perfectly arranged, covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and the great wildebeest migration. We enjoyed well-organized game drives every day, watched stunning sunrises and sunsets over the African grasslands, and witnessed the most authentic wild nature. Living in safari camps for a week allowed us to embrace a simple, primitive lifestyle of rising with the sun and resting with the sunset. We slept peacefully every night accompanied by the natural sounds of lions, zebras, buffalos, and various birds, enjoying better sleep quality than at home. Every meal was well-prepared, including delicious packed picnic lunches for our outdoor game drives, and warm dinners by the campfire every evening.

What makes this trip truly extraordinary is not only the amazing wildlife, but also the pure and sincere human warmth we encountered. All the local staff were incredibly polite and attentive. They greeted us warmly with “Jambo” and “How are you” every time we met, took great care of our luggage, and ensured our absolute safety at all times. Due to the local wild environment, we could not walk outside our rooms alone after dark, and the staff always picked us up via walkie-talkie for meals, making us feel safe and well-protected throughout the trip. The local mantra “Hakuna Matata” was reflected in every relaxing and reassuring moment of our journey.

We were extremely lucky with our travel arrangement. Our flight reschedule gave us a full extra day on the last day of the trip, which is rarely available for regular tourists. Instead of a hasty departure, our guide thoughtfully arranged a full-day authentic cultural experience for us. He patiently showed us local shops, took us to visit his lovely family and his adorable little daughter, who has beautiful big eyes and long curly eyelashes. We shared snacks, nuts, and dried fruits with our guide throughout the trip, and gave him Chinese essential balms and essential oils as small gifts, exchanging kindness and warmth all the way.

Later, we visited a pure local Maasai village, far more original than the tourist-focused villages near Ngorongoro. We learned about the real local Maasai lifestyle, their family structure, livestock culture, and simple daily business. We met local Maasai women and lovely kids, and shared candies with them. We also visited the guide’s private land in the village, learned about his beautiful dream of building his own farmhouse, and witnessed his kindness of installing water taps for neighboring villagers. It was such a precious and eye-opening cultural experience that allowed us to see the real Tanzania beyond wildlife and landscapes.

To end this wonderful journey, we treated our guide and his daughter to a Chinese dinner. They tried chopsticks for the first time and shared their wish to visit China one day. On our way to the airport, our guide’s words deeply touched us — “You came as guests, but you leave as family”.

This safari journey is priceless and dreamlike. Beyond the spectacular African wildlife scenery, we gained sincere friendship, unique cultural insights, and endless warm memories. We highly recommend Lappet Faced Safaris to every traveler planning a Tanzania safari. Their professionalism, thoughtfulness, sincerity, and dedication make every trip special and exclusive. We will cherish this unforgettable African experience forever and keep in touch with our lovely guide and his family.
