A local family-owned business, provides a tailored Kenyan safari experience
We used Ramja Safaris for our 7-day trip to Kenya in September 2024. The owner, Steve, was easy to work with throughout the planning process and was very responsive and transparent during our communication via email and Whatsapp.
We started the process by getting a quote for a 6-night safari trip using the SafariBookings website. My wife and I wanted to make a couple of lodging upgrades. Steve accommodated these requests and also suggested itinerary adjustments to optimize our trip.
I was very impressed that Steve and his wife Jackie greeted us at the airport in Nairobi at 4:00 AM to make sure that our trip was off to a smooth start. They also met us at the very end of our trip to hear about our experience.
We had 2 great guides during our safari trip, Moses and Isaac. Both of them were easy going, knowledgeable and passionate about the safari experience. We really enjoyed our safari experience with them and were impressed by the stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and the warm hospitality of the local people.
Overall, we were glad to work with Ramja Safaris, a locally owned family business. If you’re considering a trip to Kenya, we highly recommend them for a personalized experience.
Steve, Jackie, Moses and Isaac - thanks again for your hospitality!

All in all a great experience!
The booking via the website worked really well. Peter from Kima Safari always responded quickly. We would recommend asking again shortly before the start of the safari when, where and how exactly it starts, as we had a communication problem between the agency and the guide. In general, you should not approach things with the German punctuality, because the Tanzanian clock ticks differently :)
In the end, we had a great safari and our guide Fikiri was super nice and pleasant. He patiently showed and explained everything to us and we had an unforgettable experience. We can highly recommend him as a guide. The long drive from Dar es Salaam to the national park was also interesting and you could see a lot of the life of the locals. Fikiri always had good music on!

Unforgetable safari experience!
Very helpful company which arranged two incredible tours (Lower Zambezi and South Luangwa) for me. Communication is very swift and clear. Although it felt a bit weird to transfer money to a Zambian bank account, it was worth it every single penny. Eva arranged nice accomodation and very knowledgeable guides which contributed to the experience. The accomodation is excellent for anyone who want to experience a safari without spending too much money.

The tour operator is dedicated to providing unforgettable wildlife experiences.
The trip was expertly organized, and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing insights about the wildlife and the ecosystem. We saw a remarkable variety of animals in their natural habitats. The accommodations were comfortable, and the meals were delicious.

Beyond expectations. Fantastic experience!
I did a 4 day mid range safari tour. From the moment I arrived at the airport I was taken care of by Mr T. Hotels before and after were included as well as the transfer. The tour itself was amazing. The guide Ezekiel was incredibly knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure that we saw as many animals as possible, despite the fact that this wasn't the optimal time of year. We saw more animals than I could've hoped for. Plenty of lions. A heard of elephants passed right next to the jeep on two occasions. The food at the camps was very good and there was a hot shower available. When I returned to Arusha Daniel also gave me some great recommendations. I'd highly recommend Suricata.

Fantastic Holiday in South Africa with Kerry at Pembury Tours
We have just returned from a 4 week holiday in South Africa and Victoria Falls with superb assistance from Kerry Ririe at Pembury Tours.
Kerry gave so much time to all our queries and requests and always came back to us very promptly and was so patient with us. All the bookings and arrangements she made on our behalf were faultless and it is especially pleasing and reassuring that all the transfer drivers were always there in plenty of time and couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful. She provided so much invaluable information through an online portal as well as in hard copy on arrival.
We were really grateful for the advice she gave which made the planning so much easier and prevented us from making some illogical decisions and mistakes.
It was simply an unforgettable holiday and the memories we have together with the hundreds of photographs will allow us to remember it all.
Our very grateful thanks to Kerry and she is a travel consultant that we will certainly be in contact with whenever we return to Africa and have full confidence in recommending to anyone interested in travelling to these wonderful countries.

The team at Tubale Safari exceeded our expectations!
Our 18-day journey with Tubale Safari through Uganda was everything we hoped for and more. We were immersed in the beauty and diversity of Uganda’s landscapes, wildlife, and culture with numerous game drives and activities that provided a fresh perspective at each location. Traveling in the low season was a huge plus; we enjoyed having many stunning places nearly to ourselves.
The experience was not only unforgettable but also fantastic value for money. After meeting other travelers with similar itineraries who paid significantly more with different companies, we realized how fortunate we were! Tubale Safari offered better accommodations and an outstanding guide!
Our favorite moments included the enchanting encounter with the golden monkeys and a peaceful walking tour near Lake Mburo, which allowed us to connect with Uganda’s nature up close. While there were long drives to Kidepo National Park and the Batwa/Pygmy community visit felt a bit unnatural (not Tubale's fault), these were minor points in an otherwise extraordinary trip.
The team at Tubale Safari exceeded our expectations, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking an authentic, well-organized Ugandan adventure!

Knowledgeable, professional and flexible
The very best in Tanzania! I requested a custom tour with a very specific itinerary and Snowcap delivered and exceeded my expectations.
Their guides and porters are true professionals. I don't know if I would have made it to the summit of Kilimanjaro without the wisdom and encouragement of my guide. Likewise, my driver/guide for the safari was knowledgeable, fun and eagle-eyed.
The cooks were incredible. Bring an appetite! Every meal was a treat and I was always surprised at the high quality they were able to produce at a primitive camp.
These are good people offering an unparalleled experience at a fair price. Highly recommended!
