Kenya is a lovely country with friendly people with stunning beauty natural beauty.
We traveled with Asory Safari company, who were very friendly and well organised, and flexible to changes to our itinerary. The driver were very experienced at finding the animals in the Maasai Mara National Park at this time of year, when the grasslands are entering the end of the dry season, thus less feed around, and less animals to see, but we saw all the main animals living in the national park in 2 days. We also took a balloon flight which was stunning in the early morning sunrise which I would recommend to anyone visiting the Maasai Mara.

Friendly personal service from an efficient, knowledgeable operator
I have now travelled twice with Abiy Ethiopia Tours and each time found the planning and delivery of the tour immaculate. Abiy is prompt replying to queries, generous with advice, and always knowledgeable, courteous and fluent in English.
We enjoyed the first tour so much that we trusted Abiy to arrange our second experience of Ethiopia. We found going through a trustworthy Addis-based tour operator proved excellent value for money. We were again impressed with the friendly efficiency of all involved and the personal interest Abiy took in ensuring that we got the maximum enjoyment from the trip. Well done Abiy Ethiopia Tours!

Excellent in communication and organization of a lovely fist time time trip to Africa!
My friends and I had a perfect time. The accommodations were lovely, the people were warm, welcoming and helpful. The tour operators were easy to contact with questions, and when we wanted to change plans to have an authentic Kenyan dining experience, they were more than eager to assist in that desire. We had an amazing time and are very thankful for the Safari team for working with us to make it happen:)

Great 5 day safari with Kenedy
We had a really great jam-packed tour with Safari Soles. They managed to take us to Tangirire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorogoro in the 5 days, so we got to see 3 really different landscapes. We really loved all the accommodations they put us up in and the hot lunches were a great touch. Kenedy was an amazing guide, always very friendly, reliable and upbeat and he took note of things we were interested in. The hot air balloon ride in the Serengeti was a really special experience and we would definitely recommend.

A fabulous discovery 🥰
Will and Cosmas were amazing! At first, Will was of an incredible help to plan and decide of the itinerary. We compared prices from different agencies and ATSL was the Best! Plus we had access to will for all our questions to make better choices, with fast and accurate answers! From the moment we arrived, with our family of 4 (2 teenagers 12 and 16 yo), Cosmas was there to welcome us even though it was late and the airport changed… we loved everything from this agency. Friendly (almost like family), easy to reach and amazing to plan the trip of our lives! From the game drives through the serengeti, the meet of those incredible tribes so interesting, to the slopes of the Kilimandjaro where we made a hard but beautiful trek to give us a taste of the great summer… we were astound by this magnificent country! We would recommend 120% to choose them for sure!

Hirwa Safaris team truly delivered a life changing journey for me in Rwanda!
I came to Rwanda as a stranger, but thanks to Daphne and the Hirwa Safari team, I left feeling like family.
From start to finish, every detail of my journey was handled with such care, warmth, and professionalism that it became more than just a trip - it was a deeply personal experience.
The bespoke itinerary included unforgettable adventures such as chimpanzee trekking & a canopy walk in Nyungwe, mountain gorilla trekking and the Dian Fossey hike in Volcanoes, and encountering the “Big 5” on Safari in Akagara.
Each moment was thoughtfully curated, blending Rwanda‘s incredible wildlife with cultural immersion, healthy and delicious cuisine, and handpicked accommodations that reflected the beauty and hospitality of this amazing country.
What I appreciated most was just how seamlessly everything came together. From the beginning when this was just an idea, Daphne was there to answer every question & offer suggestions, guaranteeing my experience in Rwanda to be an unforgettable one. From the second I arrived (being greeted at the airport!) until I landed back home (with a “check in text!)) she was there every step of the way!
Daphne anticipated my needs before I even knew them, making the entire experience effortless and enriching.
I arrived with the expectation of a great trip, but I left with a lifetime of memories, a full heart, and a profound love for the people and landscape of this remarkable country.
I wholeheartedly recommend Daphne, Levi’s, Fiston, and the entire Hirwa Safari team to anyone seeking not just a vacation, but a life changing journey in Rwanda.
-Be prepared because this country of 1000 hills and 1 million smiles will have you falling in love.

Our Magical Tanzanian Adventure
There are so many companies that offer you the 'safari experience of a lifetime' - where do you even start?
We opted for Paul and Life Journey Experience based on a number of things: initially we based the first contact on the reviews from previous clients; following that, his amazingly quick response and availability both via email and whatsapp then, most importantly, as he is a small company, we felt we would get a more personalised service. We also preferred putting our money into a smaller set up where we hoped the monies paid for the trip would trickle down to all employees. We were not disappointed on any front!
From the moment that Paul met us at the airport, he could not do enough for us. We spent the most amazing first day of our trip in Arusha, being shown around the town and then visiting the market with a Masai guide - a fantastic experience that Paul organised and we thoroughly enjoyed.
The following morning we set off on our safari with Amos - our guide. He was without doubt the magic in our safari! His knowledge of wildlife, geology and history was never-ending, his 'spotting abilities' were amazing and our time spent on safari will be in our hearts and memories for a long time to come.
Paul organised our trip and tailored it to our whims and fancies (poor man), our chopping and changing of dates and times as our arrival date kept moving around and not once was anything too much trouble.
Our accommodation was exactly what we had envisioned - we stayed in small migration camps that were very low key - our favourite being Kontiki Ndutu.
We just can't recommend Paul highly enough. Over the course of our time in Tanzania, we met a number of his employees all of whom spoke very highly of him and said what a 'really good and genuine guy' he is. Our experience also supported this point of view!
Thanks to Paul and his incredible team, our safari exceeded every expectation and we just can't recommend him highly enough.
Paul - hopefully we will see you again - we're going to get into training for our Mount Kilimanjaro climb....but only if Amos comes too!

INCREDIBLE safari experience
We chose incredible Africa Adventures as they are a local company with extremely good response rates and honest pricing and what was included. Octavian answered all of our questions and provided a hotel stay before and after our adventure. The trip was well worth the money and this company is very reasonably priced. We initially did a Kilimanjaro climb with the company and added on a four day Safari to the Tanangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our safari guide, Josephat, was extremely knowledgeable and was with us the entire ride. We saw every animal we wanted to see and the lodges chosen by the company were amazing and added to the once in a lifetime experience. Airport pick up and drop off was included and due to a late flight they even arranged for us to have dinner and a shower before our flight home.
I wish I could give this company 10/5 stars for their exemplary service, attentiveness, and family orientated demeanor.
