Abu is professional and friendly, he made me feel safe and he’s a GREAT music DJ
This Safari was the best trip I have ever been on. It was well organized and I felt so safe the entire time, that allowed me to relax and enjoy the beauty of Africa! The guides knew all the best spots to take us to catch a sighting of the animals. By the end of the trip it felt like the guides had become our friends, and it was sad to say goodbye! 100% worth every penny in tenfold, I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful safari
We have just finished a 4-day safari with Suricata Safaris. We saw an incredible number of animals, and the camping nights went very well despite the cold. Our guide, Melita, and our cook, Jeremiah, were fantastic and made sure that the schedule changes had as little impact on us as possible. Thanks as well to our guide on the last day, Antho, who introduced us to Tarangire.

Trip of a lifetime, with help from Claire at Off2Africa
We travelled from Canada to Africa for our trip of lifetime. The experience was more than we could have hoped for. It all started with connecting with several agents and determining that Claire at Off2Africa was the best fit for us. We knew generally what we wanted to see and do while in Zimbabwe, and Claire was able to chat with us to ensure we were able to see and do exactly what we needed. She customized part of our trip and was extremely helpful with consulting on where we go, and our transportation. Some of our itinerary was not a standard request, but Claire made sure it was taken care off without any worry or stress. The camps she set up for us to visit were fantastic. The service and kindness of all the staff was 5 star service and then some. The animals, the safaris, walking safaris, nights in treehouses, fishing and the sunsets are memories we will cherish. Thank you Claire for being so attentive even during our trip. We hope we will go back again some day and we'll be in touch.

A wonderful and romantic trip
I trusted Extra‑Miles long before my trip even started. I had really pleasant conversations with Simon, the sales representative. We worked out our travel plan carefully every single day. He replied to my messages promptly even when it was very late in Kenya. He is sincere and hard‑working. I’m extremely grateful for his recommendations of such wonderful hotels and itinerary.
On our departure day, our flight left early in the morning. Simon waited for us ahead of time, which warmed my heart. He helped us get local SIM‑cards. I gave them small gifts from China, putting me in a great mood right at the start of the journey.
Our official tour kicked off on June 10. Our guide Ximeng was shy at first yet highly dedicated. We drove a long way to Samburu. The wildlife there was absolutely breathtaking. Ximeng introduced every animal to us. We spotted reticulated giraffes, Grevy’s zebras and rare lions. We were lucky enough to see four out of the big five within the first two days.
I have to mention how attentive Simon is. Whenever he got news of lions or leopards, he drove there at full speed. He could predict where the animals were heading, so our vehicle always got the best viewing spot. He even checked guidebooks to identify animals for us.
After staying two nights at the lovely Simba Hotel, we headed to Nakuru. The stunning Sopa Hotel relaxed all of us, surrounded by picture‑perfect scenery.
Later we travelled to the Masai Mara, Ximeng’s hometown and the biggest surprise of this trip. Thanks to him, we saw nearly all the famous lion prides. He parked properly for our photos and moved on quickly to look for more wildlife. Everything went perfectly.
Our next stop was Lake Naivasha. Our local agent Simon arranged a free boat cruise for us. Guide Ximeng toured Crescent Island with us and took excellent photos. I took plenty of precious pictures with animals together with him.
The final destination was Amboseli. Right now I am lying at the gorgeous Praro Hotel, gazing at Mount Kilimanjaro while writing this review. Last night we chatted with Ximeng around a campfire. He gave each of us four Kenyan‑style names, which was hilarious. We formed a close bond from spending whole days in the car together.
I will whole‑heartedly recommend everyone from Extra‑Miles to my friends, and I will choose this agency again myself. Special thanks to salesperson Simon and guide Ximeng. Hope we meet again someday.
Tonga was very helpful and a courteous driver. His knowledge of the region and Masai people
My wife and I had an exceptional experience with Kipruto Safaris. Their drivers, Tonga and Winston, exhibited exceptional courtesy, conscientiousness, and expertise. They possess a high level of skill and can navigate all the roads leading to the safari and the surrounding communities effectively.
I highly recommend Kipruto Safaris.

Wonderful experience
I participated in a 7-day safari from June 11 to 17 and had a wonderful experience. I chose Jungle Roam, and my guide was Evans. During the trip, we saw all the Big Five — we were incredibly lucky! We also spotted many other beautiful birds. It was truly a worthwhile journey, and our guide was exceptionally patient and knowledgeable.

Our operators were professional, smart, safe, and charismatic.
Our experience with with Wild Horizons was absolutely amazing. Our guides were so beyond accommodating and genuinely loved being out in the safari. Everything they did enhanced our trip and I could be happier I chose Wild Horizon. We saw so many amazing landscapes and animals, but by the end of the trip, I considered myself friends with everyone at Wild Horizons

Incredible First 4-Day Kenya Safari with Antonio Safari, Edna and our best Driver/Guide Charles
We had the most amazing time on our 4-day safari through Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara. The entire experience with Antonio Safari was flawless from start to finish, and the value for money was unbeatable.
Shoutout to Edna for the perfect planning.
Edna was a dream to work with. She listened to exactly what we wanted and put together a custom itinerary that checked every single box. She handled all our special requests with total ease and professionalism. From the warm welcome and smooth pickup in Nairobi to the fantastic lodges she booked for us, everything was incredibly well-organized.
Charles is the Ultimate Guide & Driver
Once we hit the road, Charles made the trip truly special. He’s a fantastic, safe driver who knows how to navigate the traffic effortlessly. Out in the wild, his spotting skills are next-level. Thanks to him, we managed to spot the entire Big 5, plus so much more (including cheetahs, hippos, and incredible birdlife). He knew exactly where the animals would be and was always in sync with the other guides to make sure we did not miss a thing.
Since this was our honeymoon, they also organized some wonderful special touches that made our trip extra magical. We felt so looked after every single day. If you’re heading to Kenya, definitely book with Antonio Safari and ask for Edna and Charles!

Highly Recommend!
Elijah was the best tour guide! He tried his best to have us see as many animals as possible. He also is a wealth of knowledge on birds! He has amazing eyes and was able to spot a hunt that we witnessed within minutes! He also spotted a cheetah with 3 cubs from far away and a black rhino with a baby! He was amazing!
Also, Ozon did an amazing job with the itinerary & lodges. We stayed at amazing lodges for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Ozon- the booking process was seamless. And I highly recommend Elijah as your Tour guide!

Wonderful experience with Dav Safaris!
In February, a friend and I went on a 4-day chimpanzee and gorilla trek.
We had previously spent 10 days volunteering at a school and didn’t want to leave Uganda without seeing the gorillas—a childhood dream for both of us.
We spent four wonderful days with our guide, Ben. He was knowledgeable and friendly. At the start of the tour, I wasn’t feeling well, and Ben went out of his way to get me medicine so I wouldn’t have to miss the chimpanzee trek. He was amazing, and I’m so grateful to him!
We always felt safe and were able to enjoy truly exciting experiences, both with the animals and with the stunning landscapes we traversed in a super-comfortable van.
My only regret was not having more than four days. I hope to return to Uganda soon, and I won’t hesitate to book with Dav Safaris again with Ben as our guide.
I hope everyone gets to have an experience like this in their lifetime.
