Exceptional ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
5/5

What a journey this has been — our very first trip to Central Africa as a family of four. We discovered the tour through SafariBookings and reached out by email. Francisca responded promptly with three package options, and we chose the mid-luxury experience. Everything was organised seamlessly and our deposit was processed smoothly — we were incredibly excited for the adventure.

Unfortunately, our flight to Kilimanjaro was cancelled and rebooked before the trip while we were en route to Johannesburg, which meant we had to forfeit the first day of our 5-
day safari. Despite this setback, Francisca was exceptionally helpful right up to the last minute. She assisted with all the changes and kindly provided the necessary documentation for our travel insurance claim for the park fees at Tarangire National Park.

Our guide, Abia, truly made the trip unforgettable. With over 10 years of experience, his wildlife spotting skills and driving were outstanding. To make up for the lost day, he planned our game drives so well that we saw the Big Five across Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater in just three days — an incredible achievement. Beyond his expertise, his character stood out too. At one point he stopped to help a fellow guide (his own brother) fix a flat tyre, showing genuine kindness and professionalism in the field.

From witnessing a magnificent pride of lions, herds of elephant to the black rhino during calving season — the experience was beyond anything we imagined.

Despite the travel disruption, this safari exceeded our expectations. The organisation, communication, guiding expertise, and overall experience were exceptional. We would highly recommend this team to anyone planning a safari — they truly care about their guests and go above and beyond to make the journey special.

Amazing, well-planned safari with outstanding support from Kale team
5/5

I have completed a 6-day safari with Kale Voyage visiting Tarangire, Ndutu, Central Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater, and it was truly unforgettable.

I contacted several tour operators, including Kale which my friend recommended. And Kale was by far the most responsive. I especially want to thank Oscar for his thoughtful support from start to finish. Even after many itinerary changes and lots of detailed questions, he was patient, professional and always worked to find the best plan for us. He even came to see us off at Arusha Airport, which really showed how much he care.
The accommodations Kale arranged were better than I expected, and the food was consistently delicious. A highlight was our stay at Tukaone Serengeti Camp. We were lucky to get a tent near the river, and we could actually watch hippos moving around nearby — an incredible surprise.

Our guide, Sufian, was excellent. He managed time and logistics perfectly and made sure we maximized game-drive opportunities. Thanks to him, we were able to see the Big Five (including rhinos in Ngorongoro), and we witnessed so many rare scenes — leopard walking on a tree, lion sleeping on tree, lions eating, and even buffalos chasing lions. Whenever he heard updates on the radio about special sightings, he reacted immediately and got us there quickly. We always felt safe and in good hands.

If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend contacting Kale Voyage. Thank you again to Oscar, Sufian, and the entire Kale team for making this trip one of a kind.

Amazing
5/5

Myself and two friends came over to Victoria Falls for 6 days. Brighton picked us up from the airport and basically made the whole trip a dream. He picked us up and took us to every activity we had planned. He organised the whole trip, so everything was very easy for us. All we had to do was make sure we were up in time every morning.

We visited Chobe National Park, had a few days in Zambia, and went over to Namibia for the day. We also had a lot of activities based in Zimbabwe. We did river cruises, dinners, white water rafting, safaris. All in all it was the best holiday the three of us have ever had.

Brighton is very good at communicating. I was planning the trip a few months ahead of time, from Taiwan, and he replied to every text quickly. We were all very happy with the costs too, although everything was laid out well before we arrived, so we knew what they would be well in advance.

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!! Better than we could have hoped for.
5/5

Our trip was 10x better than we could have ever imagined. Do yourself a favor, and book with Loren's safari's and just go to Tanzania! We compared tours, agenda's prices to a bunch of places and it's all competitive. There is true magic in Tanzania....

Planning was a breeze with Ben's quick responses and willingness to work at late hours to accommodate US time zones. We ended up with an 8 day itinerary with Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Ndutu. All are worth it, unique in their own way.

Our guide, Simon, aka 'Safari Monster' was a ROCKSTAR and the reason our trip was such a success!!! A good guide makes or breaks a trip like this. He is very experienced (8+years guiding and driving--not all drivers are guides and vice versa). He not only was able to find us all the animals and views and special spots, he is also a fantastic driver and person. His car was in excellent shape and was able to withstand the bumpy roads and muddy holes that are inevitable parts of this journey.

Thank you so much for an amazing trip Simon. We hope to return again one day soon!

Excellent Safari!
5/5

The folks at Chalo did a great job listening to our needs and presenting options for our 1st trip to Kenya. They led us to the exact right camps for us. We planned our own stay in Nairobi and they integrated it well with assistance in arriving and departing at the airport. The staff on the ground was exceptional. Thanks Chalo!

This is an excellent company, from planning to arrival to safari and departure.
5/5

Our safari was entitled: 14-DAY SPIRIT & SOUL OF KENYA AND TANZANIA EPIC SAFARI.
My sister and I began planning this safari adventure in September 2025. We researched many safari companies listed on Safari Bookings, and enquired about safaris with a few of them. After careful consideration, we decided on Camptrek Safaris and are more than pleased and satisfied. Our travel coordinator, Rose, was very prompt in answering my many, many questions during the planning stage. Each request for this custom-made safari was fulfilled. Rose has a wealth of information in all aspects, from initial planning, itinerary adjustments, payment methods, accommodation arrangements and making sure we got to go to the places we wanted to see. Rose also arranged for a 2 day hotel stay after our arrival in Nairobi so we could adjust to the time change from the U.S., and all of the other accommodations she arranged were more than satisfactory. The price for this 2 week safari was very fair. We visited the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Masai Mara National Park, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Amboseli National Park.
Our first driver/guide, Samuel, met us at our hotel a bit earlier than arranged, accompanied by Rose. He loaded our luggage into the Land Cruiser and then Rose gave us a briefing as to what our safari would entail. We wanted to stand on the Equator, and that was our first stop. Then we were on to Ol Pejeta for a game drive prior to checking in at our camp. After lunch, we embarked on another game drive. Samuel was very informative in describing the animal behavior and excellent in spotting them. We took another game drive on the way to Lake Naivasha. We took a boat ride and a walking safari while there. Then it was on to Masai Mara National Reserve. After check in and lunch, we embarked on a game drive and spotted all of the Big 5. Samuel was in communication with other drivers and was excellent in getting to where the animals were. We spent all of the next day in the Masai Mara, witnessing many things, including lions feeding on a topi and a leopard in a tree that had an impala draped over a branch.
We had to change drivers at the Tanzania border, and Alex, our new driver was excellent as well. We spent 2 days in the Central Serengeti and 2 more days in the Southern Serengeti, a full day in each location, seeing the Big 5 again and thousands of wildebeest and calves. Alex was also in communication with other drivers and is an excellent spotter. We saw three cheetah brothers atop a rock and another mother cheetah with two cubs. All this in addition to the many other animals in the park. Many many zebra, giraffes, cape buffalo, gazelles and impala.
We then drove to the Ngorongoro Crater and saw all but the leopard of the Big 5 there, in addition to zebra, gazelles, impala, flamingos and other birds.
Then on to the Kenyan border and another driver switch. John, our new driver, was as excellent as the other two. Our destination was Amboseli National Park, and he gave us information on many of the animals there and was excellent in spotting them. We had an afternoon game drive and then a full day game the next day.
John took us to the Nairobi airport and we were met there by Rose. Then onward back home.
The accommodations were tented camps in most places. This was expected, as many of them are in the park and there are no fancy hotels. Very comfortable rooms/tents, all with toilets and showers. We spent 2 nights in four different camps.
I cannot say enough great things about Camptrek Safaris. They met all of our expectations above and beyond. The vehicles were comfortable, in spite of the road conditions (many pot holes and ruts in the dirt and gravel roads) We saw hundreds of different safari companies while on the game drives. I cannot imagine any of them could be better than Camptrek Safaris. They provided us with a lifetime of memories and are very thankful to them.
Special thanks to our travel coordinator Rose, and our three drivers - Samuel, Alex, and John.

It was a very nice expedition
5/5

We went on a 4 day safari in late January 2026. It was a very nice expedition. First of all, every staff and manager at Abner Safaris treated us very well. They organized the best trip within our budget which was quite limited. We were able to visit the best parks in the country (Amboseli, Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha) and had quality accommodation in each place. We also had a wonderful, professional and knowledgeable guide which was a big advantage. He was great both humanly and professionally. We are very grateful to him. He helped us find the animals and knows perfectly the best places to hunt and encounter all the species. Thanks again to him for really contributing to making our safari unforgettable!

Very well organised. Great Tour
5/5

Having to look at a ferry/train 3 day Safari tour from Zanzibar to Mikumi National Park meeted all expectations with whole trip door to door from Hotel to park and back.

Was incredibly well organised and was someone to meet and help you on each stage of journey. Pilly was amazing at organising the trip and making sure had everything that was needed.

Getting into the park early and leaving late meant was a bonus as had more time without the hordes of day trippers, more animals were out when less people around, particularly towards the end of the day. Danford the private tour guide was very knowledgeable and tried his hardest to find the rarer animals, and was in no rush to leave the park.

Overall a great experience and would totally recommend Kihindo Tours.
