Great support from Sekanka Travel
we travelled to Vic Falls (Zimbabwe) and through Botswana on a 9 day safari with Sekanka Travel.
Anna and Tepo where excellent and our guide Macha was fantastic.
Our one recommendation would be to confirm which accommodation you will be staying at in each location and stop of your safari.
Some locations have more than one accommodation option - and if you'd prefer one lodge vs another - make sure you share this with Tepo and Anna and they can ensure you are in the exact accommodation you want to be in.
For Victoria falls - we would recommend the Shearwater explorers village vs the PheZulu lodge. The PheZulu lodge is nice but its quite a walk (25 minutes) to the central shopping are of Victoria falls.

Kenmara is an exceptional tour operator to make memorable experiences with.
Having heard a lot about Maasai Mara, I had the pleasure to tour it recently. The all experience was quite exciting. The team offered timely communications making the experience worthwhile. The professionalism of the guides exceeded my expectations. Also, considering the team's reliability especially in their timely and comfortable transport means and accommodation, not forgetting the tasty local cuisine, I felt the experience was worth every moment and money invested. Lastly, Maasai Mara is the best place to visit if you are looking forward to some memorable moments and experiences. The wildlife, most especially 'The Big Five,' the stunning landscapes, the insightful Maasai culture among others is worth experiencing. If you are excited about making the best memories in Maasai Mara, I highly recommend Kenmara, you will love it.

Maasai Mara
I booked with them to celebrate my birthday. The planning was seamless and well coordinated, Ivy was on top of things. We left Nairobi on time for the Mara. The journey was smooth. The game drives were amazing and Jeff our driver and tour guide did an amazing job throughout the trip. We got to see so many animals, had lunch at the park, he took his time ensuring we were always where the action was.
We also visited Maasai village and had a very good time with the community there.
I would recommend them time and time again, value for money and a guaranteed good time

Fantastic service
We booked a 10 day safari for 5 people, which exceeded all our expectations from start to finish. Our driver/guide David was excellent and helped to make the experience special- everything was calmly and efficiently organised, with clear and helpful communication- all our questions were always answered and our needs were always met in a courteous and sensitive manner. The itinerary was full on but never rushed and the truck was always spotless, with a fridge full of water for us. We saw more than we’ve ever seen on other safaris to Kenya and S Africa, the range and amount of wildlife was amazing and the landscapes were fantastic. David helped spot animals that we couldn’t see and we managed to have unique experiences every day- seeing leopards and taking time to watch a hunting lioness were particularly special. All the lodges were excellent with the set menu approach for lunch/dinner with options working very well and the breakfasts which were cooked to order were superb. Although the roads are often bumpy, David’s careful driving meant that even long journeys weren’t too exhausting and we always arrived at our destination in good time.
Our gorilla trekking day in Bwindi was amazing and a wonderful highlight of the holiday, the organisation was fantastic and although the trek itself was challenging, our guide Joy and the rangers were wonderful.
Thank you for a fabulous experience, we will look to book with Speke again.

A good car and great driver is necessary when travelling
We hired for 6 days a car and driver via Grassrootztravel. We had to visit for our work several organisations in different places in Uganda.
The car was comfortable and we had a great driver. He brought us in time to different addresses, even the ones difficult to find. He was always patient and ready to help us and he was also an enthusiastic guide who told us on the road about his land, the people, animals and nature. We did not book a safari trip, but even so, we saw a lot of animals and learned a lot about the country.

Well-organized safari with a skilled guide, offering good value and a flexible approach
We had a very good safari experience with Johnny Jackson as our guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating, and his insights into the animals' movements helped us get some excellent sightings. Johnny was also flexible with the itinerary, taking into account our preferences, which was much appreciated.
The vehicle was comfortable and well-suited to off-road sections. Accommodation was simple but comfortable, and the food was decent, though it could have used more variety, as we had similar meals each day (mostly rice, lentils, and meat).
At first, the price seemed high, but after the tour, I felt it was good value for money given the quality of the experience and Johnny’s skill as a guide. Overall, a well-organized tour with a capable guide. Recommended.
