Magic Serengeti
We spend 5 days around Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
Mack was funny, polite and very generous with us.
Thomas, our driver, was simply the best: great knowledge of area and animals, funny, always quit and very polite. He delivered every requests from us. He let us see a Leopard as close as possible!
When we turn back to Serengeti we'll ask for Thomas again!

Good value, fun 3 day 2 night safari at Masai Mara
Safari itself was a good time. Our driver (Peter) was awesome. He was polite and listened to us when we wanted to stop or move on to other things. The campsite was alright, but the food situation was weird. It seemed like other groups at the same campsite had a specific cook that would reserve tables (of which there weren't enough for the number of people staying there) and set them up and make specific buffets just for them. For some reason our group didn't get this treatment from our cook. Our food was basically the exact same meals both days... but for 2 nights it's not a big deal. The food wasn't bad, just kinda bland. Shower was hot, toilet worked, towels were provided when I asked for one, and the bed sheets seemed clean to me. Beds weren't terribly comfy, but for 2 nights, they did the job and it was a heck of a lot better than sleeping on the ground would've been.
Josh was very reasonable and helpful. He answered all my questions, and picked me up from my place near the Nairobi centre to meet other safari group members. He was very organized. Only thing was when I was brought back to Nairobi, it was with a different driver than we'd had the rest of the trip with (we transferred at a town on the way back because some others were continuing on to Lake Navisha) and he wanted to just dump me in the city centre (not back at my place as Josh and I had agreed). When I called Josh, he arranged for a taxi driver to bring me back home and it all worked out.
All in all, the best deal I could find. Was $290 USD all in, and I have no regrets. Great experience, met some really nice people from all over the world in my group.

Great experience and good organisation
We had a very good Safari with great experiences in Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara.
The organisation was also good and due to our driver we felt also safe as he told us many things about the landscape we drove through.

Gorilla Safari in Uganda and Genocide museum in Kigali
I really enjoyed the Tour organized by Gorilla Bookings. The rate is quite high, but the services have lived up to expectations, both for the gorillas safari, as well as the visit of the country where there is still passage to Rwanda to visit the Genocide Museum in Kigali.
I especially keep an incredible memory of Meddy, driver, guide ... became a friend. A real encounter that is warm in the heart! To recommend !

Amazing days with Viva Safaris
We had an amazing experience with Viva Safari. We have been quite unlucky in Tremisana (could happens) but our guides did theyr best to spot something. In Marcs Threehouse (especially during the Kruger day) we had right the experience we could only hope to have: amazing.

just passing through town
Top of my bucket list was to see the gorillas in the Congo. It was a dream come true and to make travelling easier we were introduced to Barak who helped us with our visas and get us across the borders with no trouble. He also took myself and my girlfriends to a local market to go shopping which i give him a lot of credit for too. He not only stayed sane, he managed to get us some bargains. We spent a few days with Barak and I found him to be kind, happy, funny and helpful, all with a constant smile which is so nice to be around. I recommend him to anyone travelling to this area!!

Happy safari with Bigfoot
My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon in Kenya and Tanzania. We did a short 3-day Trip in Nairobi and amboseli with Bigfoot. Daniel and James answered mails very quickly and with many details. They emphasized clients'demands very much and considered what u want when making itinerary for u. Their good service leaves very good impression on me.
Our guide Julia is a very experienced one who took care of us since we landed in Nairobi. Our car is brand new and very comfortable. We didn't have lunch at Talisman restaurant due to my mistake. So sad.... Julia recommended us another famous restaurant which is good. My husband and I enjoyed meal very much.
Amboseli national park is a beautiful park. We saw plenty of elephants there. No wonder it is called land of elephants. We also saw many other animals such as lions,cheetahs(2 at one time),gnus,blabla..... We felt really sorry that we could not see Mt.kilimanjaro due to the thick cloud. My husband felt very disappointed. In my opinion, having pity in one trip is common. That may be the reason for me to come back. I will choose Bigfoot again when I have opportunities to be back.
