Excellent company, which helps with every problem
Absolutely amazing company! The team really saved us and helped us out a lot.
First of all, our flight was delayed, so until the very last minute we had no idea what time we would arrive or even exactly where. Despite that, they still arranged a transfer for us and made sure we got to the hotel in time and didn’t miss our safari. The communication throughout the whole experience was excellent.
And our guide, Jordan, was absolutely fantastic. He even helped us get a refund for our hot-air balloon trip, even though it was officially non-refundable.
The food was delicious, and Jordan was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. He told us so many interesting stories and facts — how crocodiles hunt and what they eat, why hippos walk alone at night, and much more.
He took us to some truly amazing places, and we got to see a huge variety of incredible animals.
If you’re looking for a great safari operator, I honestly don’t think you’ll find a better one. Highly recommended!

Very good at finding the best spots to see the wildlife up close
Very good tour - well organized and we managed to see all Big Five up close due to the extra effort of our guide Jordan.

A truly amazing trip - Extra Miles is going the extra miles!
We booked a combination of safari and beach holiday through Extra Miles Unique Adventures, and I can honestly say: better is hard to imagine!
What we booked for us as a family of three (2 adults and our 13 year old daughter): private safari package for 2 nights in Amboseli, 3 nights in the Masai Mara and 1 week in Diani Beach, including all transfers (flights Amboseli-Masai Mara-Diani Beach and car transfer from Nairobi to Amboseli), accomodation, and a hot-air balloon ride in the Mara.
What we got: 2 weeks full of unforgettable experiences, amazing encounters and memories we’ll never forget.
From the very beginning, everything was just perfect – from the great advice and easy booking process (a big thank you to Winnie for taking such good care of us) to the fantastic support throughout the safari.
A special thank you to our guides Richard for the wonderful time in Amboseli and to Fred in the Masai Mara - he managed to spot even the most hidden animals – and he took us to an amazing Mara river crossing with hundreds of wildebeest. Absolutely unforgettable!
We also felt completely safe throughout the safari. The driving was excellent, and the safari vehicles were comfortable and well equipped, which made the transfer and game drives much more enjoyable. The choice of lodges was also spot on – great locations, beautiful places and a perfect fit for the overall trip.
The communication and organization throughout the whole journey were excellent. Everything worked smoothly, and we always felt well taken care of.
Keep doing what you’re doing! It’s clear that going the extra mile is part of your DNA! Highly recommendable!

Unforgettable.
I did 6 days budget safari in Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. Everything was well organized and our guide John was amazing: knowledgeable, reliable, friendly. Thanks to him we saw so many animals and beautiful sceneries. He was always happy to answer our questions and meet our needs.
The only thing i would have done a bit differently was the third day, when you just go to Nakuru and do an optional short boat tour in lake Naivasha. I would have done the game drive in nakuru at sunset instead of the morning after, when you have to do already a lot of driving to go to Amboseli. But it was not a big issue.
In 6 days you will do two full day game drive, one in mara and one in amboseli, one sunset drive in mara, and two morning drives in nakuru and amboseli. The rest is just driving from one park to another. Parks are spread out and logistics in Kenya is not the best, but that’s not the operator fault.
The experiences you will live are so beautiful that whatever issue you might have goes away, and when you come back you will just want to do it all over again.
Thank you.

My new experience at the diani beach is truly thrilling
The white sand, clear blue water and peaceful surroundings of Kenya's famous Diani Beach really impressed me. What I liked the most was the sincerity of the local people and the coastal Swahili culture. There is also the opportunity to visit historical and cultural sites along with snorkeling, boat trips, marine life.
For me, the best part of the Diani Beach experience in Kenya is the tranquility of snorkeling, marine life and exciting moments. Spending a few days on the Kenyan coast in Africa made my trip more complete. Definitely recommended!

Amazing trip throughout the pearl of Africa
Great organisation by SEMU Gorilla safari and tours before even reaching the country. Edinson was helpful and reply to all my questions within minutes via WhatsApp. Excellent communication throughout the process (regarding accommodation, activities, payment etc.).
We were awaited at the airport upon arrival by Edison who introduced us to Jimmy Mukasa our guide for the tour.
Jimmy was super dynamic from the beginning, explaining a lot about the country, the journey and the activities ongoing. We had a lot of fun with him, he was both professional and friendly. He made us discover the country from his local perspective, trying local food (we shared millet bread, matoke, kitafeeri, Enturire etc.). Jimmy was caring and made every demand possible. If you need something, Jimmy will make it happen !
I would 100% recommend both the organization and the guide.

We have also done the air-balloon experience and it has been unbelievable.
A special mention to our guide Julias, he has been so nice, well-prepared and also incredible in catching all the animals. We will for sure recommend to all our friends!
