Most professional, kind, knowledgeable guide I have ever had. Mike truly made our trip memorable.
Mike was absolutely amazing and truly made our Kenya safari the best trip ever!
From the very beginning, it was clear how knowledgeable and experienced he was. He answered every question we had, whether it was about the animals and wildlife, different cultures and customs, or anything else we were curious about. With his years of experience, it seemed like he always had an answer—and he was always happy to share his knowledge.
Beyond that, Mike was incredibly professional, reliable, punctual, kind, genuine, and funny. He constantly checked in with us to make sure we were happy and comfortable and would always ask if there was anything we wanted to do differently. He was so flexible and genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience. We felt completely comfortable, happy, and safe with him throughout the entire trip.
Mike is also an amazing photographer! He knew exactly how to set up the best photos and was always patient about getting the perfect shot. What really stood out to us, though, was how much genuine passion and respect he has for the wildlife. He cared deeply about the animals we were seeing and was equally respectful of the other safari vehicles and guides around us. You could truly tell that this is more than just a job for him.
Mike set the standard incredibly high. He made every game drive exciting, educational, comfortable, and fun. We are all going to miss him so much!
Thank you so much, Mike, for an unforgettable experience. You truly made this the most wonderful trip, and we feel so lucky that we got to have you as our guide. We couldn’t recommend him more highly!

The adventure of a lifetime
We are absolutely delighted with our safari. From the very beginning, communication with the company was flawless. Our guide, Harum, was always punctual and professional. We felt very comfortable in his company. He was truly dedicated to making sure we saw all the animals, and he shared fascinating facts about each one of them. We will never forget these 7 days. We highly recommend this company and this guide to everyone!

Amazing experience
We had a truly wonderful experience with Serengeti Smiles. Our contact Baraka helped plan our itinerary, accommodated multiple dietary restrictions and special requests and had detailed responses to all our queries. At Arusha, one of us left our passport late night at the airport, but this was very effectively handled by Baraka and our driver Joel. Our safari guide Charles handled all aspects of the experience with expertise and patience, answering our queries with detailed answers, picking great spots to drive to and showing us a lovely time at Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, where we were fortunate to see the big 5, among many others. He also calmly handled several obstacles including flat tires in the middle of the safari. Overall we are highly satisfied and would recommend this experience to everyone, especially at this price point

A really unforgettable experience
Its my first time safari. Thanks for KLA Adventure giving us a really impressive trip. The scene is great and the animals are so cute.
Which I loved most is our guide Shafino. He is really nice guy. He is a good driver，a good translator and a really professor for wild animals. He knows everything. We all love him and will recommend him to our friend who want have safari in the future

Great 4 days Safari
The Safari with driver and tour guide Laso was an amazing experience. He has put a lot of effort to make the most of our Safari, drove safely and explained a lot of things. I would definitely recommend!

Abu is an ideal safari travel companion. Professional, reliable, genuinely fun to spent time with.
We were extremely happy with the entire safari experience. Everything was well organized, from the daily schedule to the game drives, and the whole trip felt smooth, relaxed, and enjoyable. A big part of that was having Abu as our guide.
Abu is a professional, detail-oriented, and wonderfully polished safari guide — basically the kind of person you want to have with you on the safari.
He was always incredibly punctual and managed our daily schedule really well. The safari vehicle was spotless every single day, which made a surprisingly big difference, especially when you’re spending so much time in the car. And yes, the windows were clean enough that taking photos through the glass was absolutely no problem.
What impressed me most was how much he genuinely cares about the animals. He was always respectful of wildlife, and he had a great sense of where an animal might move next and which angle would give us a clearer view. He’s exactly the kind of guide you want to trust — observant, experienced, calm, and always thinking one step ahead.
And if you’re not a very talkative traveler, Abu is still an excellent companion. He has an impressive collection of extremely dry and wonderfully terrible jokes, so he can keep the silence from getting too awkward. 😂
He’s also apparently quite good at sports… see attached photo for evidence. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a safari.

You gave us an unforgettable holiday!💯❤️
I would definitely recommend Sunscape Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Zanzibar and Tanzania. Before the trip, Neema and I finalized the places we wanted to visit, and she prepared a wonderful itinerary for us. She promptly shared the 5-day plan and the activities involved, and she immediately accommodated any changes we requested. She is incredibly flexible; whenever circumstances changed or we had new requests, she quickly found solutions and explained them clearly to us. They delivered on every single promise they made. Every evening, she checked in to see if the day had gone exactly as we had hoped. Ali and Kerim, members of her team, are also wonderful people; they never left us on our own and were always by our side. I felt safe the entire time. I shared many "first-time" experiences with them, and they truly embraced my excitement. Thank you all so much. May your path be blessed, and I hope to see you again very soon. HAKUNA MATATA! POLE POLE!, HARAKA HARAKA!...💓💯💯👏🤝🤲🫶

Highly Recommended! An Unforgettable and Safe Safari Experience
First and foremost, this safari tour operator is of the highest quality. My wife initially had some anxieties about visiting Kenya, but thanks to Bushtop, she felt completely safe throughout the trip and says it has become the memory of a lifetime.
Denis, who managed our quotes, itinerary adjustments, and payments, was incredibly prompt and helpful. Almost every time I sent a message, I received a reply within minutes. Even when our arrival schedule in Nairobi was uncertain, he handled our booking with great flexibility.
Our guide, James, was friendly, exceptionally hospitable, and highly knowledgeable. He always put safety first and drove very carefully. During the game drives, he made sure we were holding onto the car securely before moving, and he frequently provided us with drinking water. Every time we spotted animals, he would ask if we wanted to stop and patiently waited until we were completely satisfied before driving off. He even suggested stopping by a local supermarket and let us try some local fast food along the way. Even though our English isn't perfect, he explained things clearly and politely, teaching us not only about the animals but also about Kenya's geography and culture.
Regarding the accommodation, our original plan was to stay at Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge and Sarova Mara Game Camp. Since Sarova Mara Game Camp was fully booked, we followed Denis's advice and decided to stay at Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge and Mara Maisha Camp. Both hotels were extremely clean, all the meals were delicious, and we were highly satisfied.
Overall, Bushtop is a fantastic tour operator. We are Japanese, not very accustomed to speaking English, and this was our very first trip to Africa. The fact that we could complete our journey without a single complaint is entirely thanks to Bushtop.
Thank you very much, Bushtop!

Once in a lifetime experience!
We recently completed the 8-Day Great Migration Safari with Safari Soles and had an amazing time exploring Tarangire NP, Northern and Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater - finishing the experience with a day in the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro. Jamal at Safari Soles was extremely helpful with planning the itinerary from our first contact, and everything was taken care of, the accommodation, food and drinks in the vehicle. We saw a huge variety of wildlife, far more than the Big 5, and had some remarkable up-close experiences. The vehicle was comfortable and well cared for, and our guide, Raymond, was extremely knowledgeable and a great driver who couldn't do enough for us. Couldn't recommend highly enough!
