Great provider of safari adventures
We did a 10 days tour: Olpejeta-Nakuru- Masai Mara- Naivasha- Ambosseli. Lucy from Axis Africa was very responsive organized everything very quick communicated through WhatsApp and email. Price for the entire trip was reasonable. 4 hotels were very good to amazing, one hotel was good/ok . Food everywhere was really good if you do not have dietary restrictions. They all have many vegetarian options but vegan is really hard. They did their best. Talk to the chef in each place and they will help you. Our Guide Ben was amazing, he is a wiz in finding the animals and in putting us as close as possible to them in a great angle to get the best pictures. We saw many Cheetahs, Leopards, lions and cubs, black and white Rhinos, many birds, giraffes, zebras antelopes, hippos, etc. one more important note, the poverty here was heart breaking. Support the locals by buying from them leaving tips and giving food you do not eat to the Masai and other tribes at the parks gates when possible. I felt heart broken to see their conditions while we are enjoying best services enjoying their country.

The Best! Knows Botswana's animals, landscapes - leads a Great Team that made each day a delight!
What an amazing, fantastic, and delicious experience we had with Sam Mopalo and his wonderful Early Kingfisher Safari team! From the first day we set off in Sam’s Land Rover, we saw lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, elephants, buffalo—including cubs and calves—all so much closer than you can imagine. We saw zebras, giraffes, wildebeests, hippos, wart hogs, all sorts of antelopes--and hundreds of gorgeous, colorful birds. We saw them racing, stretching and yawning, nuzzling, sipping water, battling one another, and tearing into prey—it was magical to see so many different animals—and to be so close. Friends who went with Early Kingfisher last summer highly recommended this trip—raving about the warmth and professionalism of Sam’s team, the delicious food, the comfy beds/tents, and warm showers under the stars -- and it was all even better than advertised! We couldn’t believe the gourmet meals and beautiful presentation the Early Kingfisher team produced—including accommodating vegetarian and specific diet needs. Every day was a delight! Sam didn’t need GPS—he knew where and when to find the animals and birds, the best camera angles, and always—the spectacular dawn and dusk landscapes. Once you are in that Land Rover driving through “the bush”, you quickly understand why an expert guide—who can handle any situation—is essential. Sam’s immense practical experience, encyclopedic knowledge of the flora and fauna of Chobe National Park, Moremi Game Reserve, and all Botswana’s national treasures – including the stars we could see from around our nightly campfire – made us feel safe and well cared for. I’ve traveled widely, but had never been anywhere in Africa and didn’t realize how much I would love Botswana! Thank you Sam and Early Kingfisher team for an incredible experience! Hope to see you again.

Extremely friendly and reliable local tour operator
We had such a great day on our safari at Nairobi National Park. From the point of booking, the communication was really good and everything was easy to arrange.
We booked the private 4x4 full-day tour and it was very much worth it. Having the whole day and not being rushed made such a difference.
Kelvin was an amazing guide. He was really knowledgeable, flexible, and clearly knew the park inside out. We managed to get so close to the rhinos, which was definitely one of the highlights, and he made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy each sighting without feeling like we had to move on. Make sure to reserve at the Sheldrick Elephant Center too!
If you're in Nairobi, I'd definitely recommend doing this, especially if you don't have time for a longer safari. It's honestly one of the best things I've done in all my travels, and it's incredible that you can even have this kind of safari experience so close to the city - I would have never imagined it since I came here for work. I'd love to come back and do a multi-day safari with Kelvin in the future.

Outstanding Guide
Martin was an excellent Guide on the Safari. He started off by introducing himself with great humor and warmth. During the drive, he was very knowledgeable of all of the animals, and he took the time to make sure that he answered all of our questions and he always offered enough time for us to take pictures. I've been on several safari and he is one of the best.

Very good
I had an amazing experience with Africa Campsbay Tours! Everything was well organised from start to finish, and the team was friendly, professional and very helpful. They made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free, and I felt well taken care of throughout the tour. I would definitely recommend Africa Campsbay Tours to anyone looking for a great experience in Africa. I would happily book with them again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Do not hire this company for safaris in Tanzania

Our initial interaction with Leopard Tours was far from ideal. My group and I were exhausted from the journey to Arusha; we were a large party of 21 people distributed across four hired jeeps. Bernardo introduced himself as the lead guide but immediately expressed concern about how to fit our luggage for the trip to Lake Manyara. The situation dragged on while a light drizzle began to fall; our bags were left exposed to the elements as the staff debated how to load them onto the roofs—complaining that covering the luggage racks with tarps would take too long. They ultimately decided to cram everything inside the jeeps however they could; naturally, this resulted in damaged wheels and burst zippers on some of the suitcases.
It was a very hot and dusty time of year on the roads. Only one jeep had air conditioning, so unless you wanted to die of heatstroke, you were forced to breathe in clouds of dust!
As for Bernardo, the guide: he was arrogant and sarcastic. He deliberately tried to provoke and irritate me—and he succeeded. Once the safari got underway, he simply stopped providing the kind of information good guides usually share with their clients. He would pretend not to hear requests to stop for bathroom breaks, and he wouldn't even slow down when Thomson's gazelles or other animals were slowly crossing the road or threatening to dart out in front of the jeep. Once he realized this was causing us distress—especially me and the other women—he would deliberately drive straight at the gazelles, only swerving away at the very last second. A guide from a company that positions itself as the best safari operator in Tanzania shouldn't disrespect the animals or the clients; experiencing that kind of tension was shocking and unnecessary. I switched guides and Jeeps (since we had that option as a large group) to avoid making the situation worse.
Bernardo didn't strike me as a man with good intentions; on our last day with Leopard Tours, he displayed behavior that really defined his character: he asked that all the gratuities intended for the various guides and drivers be pooled with him first, claiming he would distribute them later. Everyone was suspicious of his motives, so each group gave their tip directly to their own guide.
It wasn't a good experience with Leopard Tours.
I do not recommend this company to anyone.

We had an unforgettable Safari Trip
We had an absolutely breathtaking 8-day safari with Max. From the very beginning, while planning our trip with Norina and Gwen, we were impressed by their outstanding service and flexibility.
Max made this journey truly unforgettable. He has an incredible amount of knowledge about the animals, plants, and everything surrounding the safari experience. Every single day, he was eager to show us something new and make each game drive unique.
We saw everything we had hoped for and even more. Max always listened to our individual wishes. Even if we only casually mentioned that it would be amazing to see lions that day, finding lions immediately became his mission—and he always succeeded.
He is incredibly friendly, kind, and funny, and spending time with him was a real pleasure. The food at the lodges as well as the lunch served during our game drives was always excellent.
We would highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda to everyone and would choose them again without hesitation for any future safari.

Helpful, patient, kind and magical!
Serengeti Clarity made our dream honeymoon a reality - we had the most magical and phenomenal 21-day itinerary created by Frank and his team. From the moment we landed in Kilamanjaro, our 12-day safari, our flight to Zanzibar and our 9-days relaxing on the beach and exploring Stone Town, every single thing had been taken care of. We are so glad we found Serengeti Clarity and would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much for the most exceptional holiday of our lives, we appreciated everything you did for us and beyond.

Excellent
I was super satisfied. The driver was very good at driving, super careful in finding animals and super willing to answer questions. The organisation of the entire tour was perfect, food and lodge were unexpectedly comfortable. I sincerely recommend it.
