Just the best tour operator I could have asked for :)
Phine Safaris is ann anmazing tour operator. Everything was impeccably arranged, and we enjoyed every single day of the tour. They tailored a comprehensive tour that comprised of Mount Kenya hike, safari in Masai Maara and a coffee tour. We had limited time (only 8 days available for this trip) and they managed to fit all our destination requests in this short period.
The hike to Mount Kenya was a highlight for us, and the safari was simply unforgettable. In not even 2 full days we saw enormous amount of animals, including dozens of big cats. The coffee tour that Phine Safaris arranged for us was also fantastic. A special thanks to Perpetua, for always being there to support us if we had any question or concerns; her help made a big difference in ensuring we felt looked after throughout the trip.
It was the best value for money, the communication very efficient and definitely a very reliable company.
Please don’t hesitate and book with them, you will have one of the best (if not the best) trips of your life.

An Incredible Bucket List Experience!!
We spent 5 days travelling through Uganda with our amazing guide, Simpson. Our tour consisted of a safari through Queen Elizabeth National Park, a trip to the Equator, Chimp Tracking and Gorilla Trekking. From the very beginning of the process Peter was incredibly responsive and helped curate a trip that was in our budget, including everything we wanted to see. Even when we were having trouble acquiring our visa to get into Uganda, Peter stepped in and finished the process for us without hesitation.
All of the accommodations we stayed in were absolutely beautiful!! Although our first stay at Elephant Hab was changed last minute it was replaced with a fantastic stay at the Aardvark lodge. The food throughout the trip was absolutely delicious and the service throughout all of our stays was top notch.
Our guide Simpson really made our trip a 5 star experience. His incredibly kind and funny personality mixed with his knowledge about his home country was everything you could ask for in a guide. He is someone we will continue to keep in touch with and he quickly changed from just our guide into our friend. If you are booking this trip with Buyaga we hope you're lucky enough to experience it with Simpson!!!
Look no further and book with Buyaga Safaris.

Elisha was great!
Elisha was a fantastic guide during our safari tour! He was professional, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great time. His knowledge about the wildlife and environment was impressive, and he managed our schedule very well. Elisha kept the tour fun while also making sure we learned a lot and stayed safe at all times. If you’re looking for a guide who is friendly, smart, and knows their stuff, I highly recommend Orange Adventure for an amazing experience!

Fantabulous Experience EVER💯‼️
Sox and his crew were AWESOME! Their knowledge and attention to details of our trip were outstanding. The accommodations were complete & comfortable, the meals were delicious and filling; the safaris were informative and eye opening - the animals, the birds, the flora - all of it was absolutely amazing! I have to look at my photos to believe that I was there. I can’t wait to return!!!!

Great safari for a great price!
Did the 5 night 6 day safari covering the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli Parks. All very interesting and unique in their own way! Thousands of animals. Saw all the Big Five although the Cheetah was at a distance and the rangers were on top of her right away and we couldn't get closer. Did not see any leopards but were told they are rare anyway. My driver for the first four days was John and he was a good driver, very conscientious of stopping for breaks and refreshments. Not for the faint of heart! It's bumpy and some of of the trips are really long! That being said, the camps I found to be quite comfortable, the food was OK and plentiful! John was extremely patient when we got on a "Big One"! The fourth day however was an extremely long ride with a different driver named Stephen. Not as conscientious as John and we kind of breezed very quickly on the last day through the Amboseli. I would not recommend him for your whole trip. I had been wanting to do a safari my whole life so I'm glad I went with the Lenchada. It got us really into the bush! No luxuries, a great taste of Africa in the wild, came in and out safely and all on an extremely affordable budget! Great safari! Great Price! Thanks Alex.

Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro: Three Days in the Wild
Three days spent in the heart of Africa, within the national parks of Serengeti and Ngorongoro, will forever remain in my memory. From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized. We were met at the airport with a welcoming sign.
Our guide, Edgar, an experienced wildlife expert, immediately created a comfortable and adventurous atmosphere. His skill in off-road driving and deep knowledge of animals were truly admirable. Each encounter with wildlife was accompanied by fascinating stories about their habits and characteristics. Chef James and his team, who accompanied us on the safari, prepared simply delicious meals. Three times a day we were served hearty and varied lunches.
Serengeti and Ngorongoro are truly a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts. We saw giraffes, elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hippos, buffaloes, zebras, and many other animals.
Camping was a unique opportunity for me to fully immerse myself in the atmosphere of the African savannah. The sounds of the night, the smell of fresh grass, and the feeling of closeness to wild animals created unforgettable impressions.
I express my immense gratitude to the entire team for their professionalism and hospitality. It was a great journey to remember!!

3-days safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro National parks
I recently had the most incredible three-day safari experience in Tanzania, visiting Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Parks. The entire trip was flawlessly organized, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received.
Our guide, Edgar, was exceptional. His deep knowledge of the wildlife and the parks made the experience truly unforgettable. He was patient, informative, and always went the extra mile to ensure we had the best possible safari experience.
James, our chef, prepared delicious and varied meals every day. His culinary skills added another layer of enjoyment to our adventure.
The communication with Suricata safaris was excellent from the very beginning. The email correspondence was prompt and informative, and the airport transfer from Arusha was smooth and efficient.
The campsite was clean and comfortable, and the tents provided a cozy retreat.
Overall, I highly recommend Suricata safaris to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in Tanzania.

Sello was enthusiastic and knew answers to all our questions. He was a really likeable guy too.
I really had no idea what to expect. I kinda hoped that SOWETO wasn’t like I thought it might be due to my ignorance on how the person that showed us around and lived there felt about it. They love their home and are really proud of how it’s run and how it works. It opened my eyes.
The other parts of the tour such as the towers, Hector museum, stadium and Nelson Mandela’s home were really interesting too but the trip into Soweto was most educational - both listening to Sello and seeing with Hope. Thanks
