Great safari in the southern parks with few tourists and lots of animals!
The Southern Circuit (Selous, Mikumi, Ruaha) is really recommendable because you discover the big differencies in the behaviour of the animals in the different parks and the changing landscape on the way. The parks are not crowded at all (maybe Mikumi a little bit) and there are plenty of animals to see. Except of lions or leopards (where everyone is going directly to have a look) you will often be the only car close to the animals.
The weather is pleasant and the accomodations very nice. There are also just a few mosquitos and Tsetse-flies.
We would definitely recommend the Safari in the Southern Parks if you like more remote parks with few tourists.

It was nice to meet the wild!
We went on two safari trips with bushtroops: maasai mara and ambosseli. As a family traveling with young children we felt comfortable and safe throughout the entire trip. Our driver, Joseph was mindful of the characteristic of our group as well as attentive to our needs and requests. The accommodations, in Sentrim and Sopa lodge, that were selected for our journey were clean, safe, family-friendly and serene. Sleeping in the comfortable and solid permanent tent is a great first experience in the "wild" for city folks' like us. The food was really good. We enjoyed the African special tea, the most.
We recommend the whole experience.
Please note that the drive to Maasai Mara is longer than to ambosseli, but for what you'll experience, it is worth it.

Review about Amboseli National Park by D. Ex
Ambosseli, has lots of animal herds (zebras, elephants, wilderness,...). The elephants are particularly impressive from close. We saw a few birds and a lion family, in the end stole the show. Wish we had close access to the water points. We spotted some hippos from far, but couldn't be close enough. There's a lot of dust, especially hard when another car passed us by.
What we saw there was picturesque: I took national geographic-like pictures with my phone!

Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by D. Ex
There's a wider chance of meeting the big five there. We got to see four out of the fives. We were able to follow a lonely lion, watch a leopard (puma)devour his lunch, chat with 2 giraffes and missed our appointment with the rhinos all that before lunch. It's an amazing feeling to be in the wild with all these animals and more.

The best moments
It was almost perpect. If your travel agent has kept the specified schedule and accomodations. At least, the travel agent should have told me that it can not be changed because of the distance. But Guide had a skillful man. also, Kenya is amazing
space.

Very good Experience!
It was a very good safari. Mr. James was very responsive, always provided quick feedback at the stage of booking and he came personally to pick us from the airport. Safari was organized very well and made some good friends. Our driver was great - special thanks...

Unforgettable
Rajabu is a great guy!!! He helped me out with our trip trying to make it fit to my expectations.
We had a couple of unforseen, but he helped us out of them and even compensate us for the inconviniences.
Nice hotels and great parks. We were luck enough to see the Big 5 very close. Drivers and guides also very nice and friendly.
We really love traveling with RajaTours!

Memorable for the right reasons
We went to Selous game reserve for 3 nights, 4 days. We stayed at hippocamp. Our experience at the game reserve was amazing, we saw lots of animals, had lots of breathtaking memories made, so many pictures to go through. Our guide Ali, was very knowledgeable about where the animals might be and about their habits. We loved every minute of it. Would definitely recommend.
Hippocamp, was basic but we knew this. The staff were lovely and the food was very good, we didn’t have a bad meal. No internet for 4days was lovely, there is no WiFi, no need to check social media,
Bush babies visited us every night and our walking safari was eventful, heart stopping and exhilarating.

Good Organization Overall
Humphrey was very helpful with all the reservation and doubts. The safari was as described and the accommodation better than I expected. The safari depends a lot on the guide/driver and cooker you are assigned. I would have expected better lunch box but this is not so important with the amazing holidays.
