Satisfied
4/5

It was a wonderful experience, a private tour with a guide and driver. I was very satisfied with being able to observe wild zebras, oryx, gazelles, ostriches, and birds I had never seen before.
The hotel was mediocre, so I'm giving it 4 stars.

Great
4/5

Did the one day golden monkey encounter in the volcanoes national park. Shever was the driver, friendly, great communication and stopped at certain places to take pictures on the return trip. Only issue was the vehicle was having issues on the way there.

Wonderful tour
4/5

It was an amazing experience. Only the hotels could be a bit better. Perhaps the luxury option would be a better experience.

Very efficient and organized.
4/5

The trip was very well organized, the agency responded white promptly to all our enquires.
We only had a minor issue one day with the driver telling us we had including only morning drive when in fact we had full day for the whole trip. The agency helped us in that occasion.

Overall is strongly recommended.

Good quality and good service, open to feedback
4/5

The hotels, lodges and camps that Magical Skies booked for us were excellent at good prices; their food and service was very good too.
Our guide was very dedicated and knowledgeable; we saw very many things that others didn’t because of him.
We had a problem with our vehicle which was amicably sorted.

Kind, funny and relaxt.
4/5

We did a half-day private tour of Nairobi National Park with our two children (ages 5 and 8). Our guide, Owen, was very friendly.

We were picked up slightly late at our Airbnb, but this wasn’t really an issue since there is usually a long wait at the park gate anyway. On the drive, while passing Kibera, Owen already started sharing info with us about the slum.

Inside the park, Owen explained a lot about the animals and their natural behavior, adding witty remarks every now and then. At one point, he noticed a lioness preparing to hunt and patiently waited to see if we might witness it.

We saw hippos, zebras, giraffes, warthogs, impalas, antelopes, crocodiles, and lions. The absolute highlight, however, was seeing multiple rhinos with their babies. One mother was even breastfeeding her calf just a few meters from our car. The cherry on top was when Owen took a quiet road back toward the city, away from other vehicles, and spotted two beautiful lion cubs for us.

We also saw many bird species, including ostriches, spoonbills, marabou storks, helmeted guineafowl, spotted thick-knees, and several others whose names I can’t recall.

Communication with the organization was pretty easy. We paid in cash (KSh). Be sure to bring your passport, as it’s required at the park entrance. The advertisement mentioned that water would be provided, and the organization also said binoculars would be available, but neither were included on our tour. This wasn’t a problem for us since the animals were very close and we brought our own water, but it’s best to come prepared just in case.

Well coordinated
4/5

The tour package was very well structured and coordinated. The guides was also knowledgeable and punctual. The package as a whole was what was promised and of high standard covering the Cape coast, wine routes and the highlight was Kapama. We saw the entire big five in two days really commendable with very professional staff and superior accommodation. The only low point was the Johannesburg Soweto tour which portrayed the bad side of South African history.

Nice experience was delivered, better than expected.
4/5

There are many operators, the tours offered are more or less the same. The main question is if you get what you were promised. I am happy I chose to go with these guys, as everything was even better than I expected. Special thanks to a guide - Gifty. He is really a guy, who is dedicated to what he does and what he loves - nature. Isn't this we all coming to safari for? I had more than a few safari experiences, and this was among the best. Go for it.
