The best decision ever!!!
5/5

We almost didn't book with Telly Safari. Due to some miscommunication. And I'm so glad we waited and booked with them.

They took care of everything
Flights, accomodation, food, car, guide...
And everything was perfect!

It's our honeymoon and we're sorry to only have booked 4 days, 3 nights.
We went from Zanzibar to Seronera and it was amazing flying bush planes where the plane was the one chasing the zebras out of the runway 🤣🤣

When we got to Seronera, Aaron was waiting for us with an amazing Toyota ready to start our Safari
The car had everything. Confy pillows on the seats , water and coke in a mini fridge, binoculares for us to use and even power plugs to charge our phones if needed.
The open/close top was also a big plus to see the animals and take pictures.

We saw 4 of the big 5 (only the leopard was missing) and 5 of the ugly 5!!
It was amazing
We saw lion cubs, lionesses sleeping by the road, hippos sleeping and swimming, 2 black rhinos, warthog with babies, hiennas sleeping, chitah! A lot of giraffes!!

Aaron was an amazing guide! Always with a smile, an explanation and a lot of patience for all our questions and stops for pictures

The hotels booked by them were to die for!!
All of them uniques, with amazing rooms, the food was excellent and the staff was super friendly!
And they even made us small surprises for our honeymoon

We were sad to say goodbye to Aaron but we'll definitely be back for more days and we'll want Aaron again!

THANK YOU!!!!

Amazing safari, very responsive service
5/5

Beverlyn from African Hartebeest Safaris did a great job in organising our safari. We were late in planning the trip, and she sorted out everything in only a couple of days.

The safari itself, in Maasai Mara, was amazing. We saw everything we hoped for and more. Our guide Jonathan knew all the good spots.

After the safari, we travelled a bit more in Kenya (self-organised). Beverlyn was also great in helping us out then - for example finding drivers on short notice when our own previous plans fell through. The solution was always just a few text messages away.

In summary, we can really recommend the experience - very reactive, able to accommodate extra wishes, a true problem-solver, and good value for money.

Highly recommended
5/5

Very professionally run business, everything was neatly planned from start to finish, high value for money, food was great. My friends and I did the 4 day safari that covers Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We slept in tents, which was an amazing experience (especially hearing the animals serenading at night). It felt safe and we received good instructions on do’s and don’ts before the night fell. This is an experience of a lifetime, and I would not hesitate to book.

I had the most amazing three-day safari with Pound East, and I can’t recommend them enough! Loyce was an exceptional guide who led our group of 10 with professionalism, expertise, and passion. Every detail of the trip was well-organized, making it a seamless and unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari with Mountain Warriors and Mbwana!
5/5

When choosing a safari agency, I reached out to three or four agencies to request quotes and itineraries. Initially, I opted for a standard package, but since this was our honeymoon, I suggested some adjustments, including staying at luxury accommodations. I didn’t have specific names in mind for the lodges at first, so I simply shared pictures of luxury lodges I found online, describing the vibe and quality I was looking for. Mountain Warriors’ sales officer, Loveness Peter, perfectly understood my preferences and patiently revised the itinerary to address all my detailed questions. Her responsiveness and attention to detail made it easy for me to confidently choose Mountain Warriors.

Throughout the safari, our guide, Mbwana, exceeded all expectations. His flexibility and dedication were remarkable—driving for over ten hours a day while constantly scanning the surroundings and staying in touch with other guides via radio to locate rare wildlife. Thanks to his expertise, we witnessed incredible moments: five lions surrounding a buffalo, two of the 24 critically endangered black rhinos in Ngorongoro, and an elephant grazing just three meters away from us.

Mountain Warriors also went the extra mile by coordinating with all the lodges to make our honeymoon special. We are especially grateful to Signiture and Lion’s Paw lodges for surprising us with song-and-dance celebrations and a honeymoon cake!

Having visited Africa many times and experienced safaris in other countries, I can confidently say this was an unparalleled adventure. It was my husband’s first visit to Africa, and he was equally blown away. This honeymoon was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we will undoubtedly recommend Mountain Warriors to all our friends and family.

A big thank you to the Mountain Warriors team for making our honeymoon unforgettable, and special thanks to Mbwana for his exceptional guiding skills. Wishing Mountain Warriors continued success in delivering amazing safaris and all the best to Mbwana!

In one word: Amazing!
5/5

Spirit of Kenya promised a lot in advance and made all promises reality.
Victor took a lot of time to inform us about all the possibilities and options. That made we ended up with a safari plan that fitted us in a great way.
We visited Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru and Masai Mara. And we saw it all! Big five - a couple of times - and all the other animals you can think of when thinking about a safari in Africa. We enjoyed it so much. The lodges we selected were also meeting our expectations. Especially Kibo safari Camp in Amboseli was lovely. But also Olengoti safari camp in the Masai Mara was a great experience.
The driver/guide we had was mister George. A very professional man with good sence of humour but also a very wide knowledge of the parks we visited and animals we met. A big compliment to him.
Any wat, if you plan a safari in Kenya get in touch with Spirit of Kenya. You ll not regret. They take care of all from the fieat to the last minute. Amazing!

Fabulous 18 day Kenya and Tanzania safari
5/5

We chose this company due to their excellent itinerary, high quality of lodging, excellent reviews, and great value compared to other quotes we had gotten. We had 4 different guides on different parts of our tour (due to additions we made to their normal safari schedule) and had great experiences with each one (David, John, Phillip, and Francis). Our main guide was Phillip. He was awesome! Highly knowledgeable and willing to please his guests. One thing we liked about Phil was that you could tell he was as excited to see a great wildlife encounter as we were. That was very nice. He also took the time to find out what we were interested in and tailored the trip accordingly. Each lodge had its own special charm. The food was fantastic and the unlimited bottled water definitely came in handy. You could easily tell the lodges were chosen with care. Pappa John set up a fantastic trip. Each day was an adventure and almost seemed better than the last amazing day. The communication prior to the safari was top notch. Lucy was very responsive and helpful. Within 3 days of starting our safari we had already seen the big 5. Our animal encounters were out of this world. We especially enjoyed Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s elephant orphanage. What an fantastic organization. We highly recommend using this company. They are an amazing group of people that do everything to make your safari an adventure of a lifetime and it absolutely was! This safari was to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and will give us memories that will last a lifetime!

Jambo Masai Tours gave us a fantastic safari with expert guiding, delicious food, and great service.
5/5

My safari with Jambo Masai Tours was absolutely amazing! The breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife were beyond anything we could have imagined. Camping under the stars added a magical touch to the entire experience and made it truly one of a kind.

Nuru, our guide, was phenomenal. His ability to spot wildlife from afar was nothing short of fascinating. Thanks to him, we got incredibly close to the animals and learned so much about their behavior and habitats. His knowledge and passion for the job made the trip even more special. I would highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari.

Yohani, our chef, was another highlight of the trip. Not only did he prepare fresh, delicious meals every day, but his cheerful personality and funny jokes kept everyone entertained.

The entire process, from booking to the end of the tour, was smooth and professional. Jambo Masai Tours exceeded all expectations, and I wouldn’t hesitate to choose them again.
