Honest and experienced
After reading lots of great reviews, we decided to book our three-day safari to Tsavo West and Tsavo East with Steve and Richard.
I have to admit that before booking I was a bit unsure who to choose. There are so many safari companies, and since this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for us, I really wanted to get it right. Steve answered all my questions quickly and had everything sorted out in no time. From then on, everything was easy.
During the safari we saw so many animals – lots of elephants, zebras, buffaloes, gazelles, different kinds of antelope and birds. We also saw three lions trying to separate two buffaloes, a cheetah and three hippos. We felt incredibly lucky!
The best part of the whole trip was definitely our guide, Solomon. He was so friendly, calm and easy to be around. You can tell he really loves his job. He knows so much about the animals, and we learned a lot just by asking questions along the way. He is also a very good driver, and we always felt safe.
We had a big jeep just for our family of four with a pop-up roof, and I would really recommend that if it’s an option. It made spotting the animals so much easier.
I would happily recommend Steve and Richard to anyone planning a safari. Everything was well organized, communication was great, and we had an amazing three days that we’ll remember forever.
I am glad we brought decent binoculars, and next time I will bring a better camera :)
Thank you Steve, Richard and especially Solomon!

Fantastic location and memorable experiences at Chobe House
Had a fantastic 10 days at Chobe House. Stunning accommodation and incredible location.
You get the best of both worlds - on the Chobe river for river safaris, and just a 5 minute drive to the park for land safaris. But also close to restaurants and shops for some luxury holiday living!
Chobe House itself feels spacious and luxurious and the decking at the back overlooking the river makes for memorable Sundowner memories!
Would highly recommend

Great four day safari tour
We booked a four day (three night) safari (visiting four parks: Ngoro Ngoro, Serengeti, Tarangire, Lake Manyara). Everything was great and well organized. Special thank you to Ephata! For those who are thinking about this particular tour, our suggestion - book a 5 days tour so there will be two days and two nights in Serengeti and it will be even more amazing.
Incredible, safe, lifetime memories…..book with Rishen!
I recommend MoAfrika beyond and especially Rishen - it really is outstanding. I spent months of planning and discussing (hundred of messages) with Rishen. He always had incredible patience and advice always. Anytime of the day or night. I am an Australian traveller travelling solo and at all times I felt secure and comfortable when in MoAfrikas care. I originally booked 7 day safari and transfers - but at every chance I wanted to do anything extra - Rishen helped. I did a tour in Joburg, Cape Town. He got me the best deal and really seemed to care about my experience.
Very very grateful - Rishen made my experience the trip of a lifetime and I was never worried. He responded in seconds every time I asked anything. If you are thinking about booking anywhere and anything in Africa - WhatsApp Rishen!!!!!!

Kajie Safaris are great! They made sure everything was taken care of for us on our trip to Uganda.
We had a great time seeing gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest with Kajie Safaris. Our guide Sulait was very helpful and made everything easy while we were in Uganda!

A great base for a safari but also fantastic organisers of memorable mobile safari camping nights
A group of us (parents of kids who were in the same class but now grown up!) decided to safari to Botswana and we struck gold with Chobe House. The lodge sits on the River Chobe with fantastic views and a river boat where you can dine and take breakfast. Very comfortable rooms, relaxing communal space and great coffee machine! But what ultimately makes the difference was the staff. Knowledgeable guides, and attentive staff who were also great fun and really engaging where nothing was too much trouble.
Whilst my wife and I had been on safari before, it was great to be able to mix game drives with river safari's, being lucky enough to see a leopard on the bank on our first boat trip out. We also saw an unbelievable variety of other wildlife, much close up.
My two favourite nights though were away from the lodge, where the Chobe team organised a nights camping just outside the park and one nights camping in the park itself. To sit round a campfire with a nice glass of red listening to the roar of lions and sounds of the bush is something I will never forget. We had comfy camp beds, large tents which were already erected when we arrived on site and wonderful food. Being able to go on night drives in the dark and see lions with a new kill is something really special.
We thought costs of accommodation, food 7 drink, trips out including camping was pretty good value for money. I wouldn't recommend something unless it was a great experience but don't have hesitation in recommending Chobe House. We are already planning a return trip in 2027!

Ephata (and his son) were both very friendly and informative
Our safari tour was great! We did 4 parks over 4 days and saw tons of animals. Ephata and his son were our guides and gave us lots of information about the animals and parks. They also recommended some other destinations of interest along our routes where we stopped by, including a Maasai village and Safariland (souvenir store/art exhibit).

very good
we went on 3 days safari which was perfectly organized. The walking safari is a nice suplement to the stay which shows the bush and the forest environment in a great deal of details and with a bit of entertainment and drama :)

True and loyal people who immersed us in their world
The owner Fredrick has been of great help and service before, during and after the tour. Timing and organization were impeccable. Jonathan was our guide and he has been brilliant and opened up a world for us. For the beauty of the places seen (Masai Mara, Amboseli and Lake Nakuru) and the lodges where we staid the trip of 5 days has been an incredible experience. Thank you so much for everything!

The Ultimate Safari Experience
It was hands down the best trip I’ve ever had. This safari was a lifelong dream come true. Ever since I was a child watching The Lion King, I dreamed of experiencing the African savannah and seeing these incredible animals in the wild. I had very high expectations, but somehow this trip was even better than I ever imagined.
But what truly made this safari unforgettable was our guide Brighton!
His knowledge was absolutely incredible—he seemed to know every little detail about the wildlife, nature, and the area, and he shared it in such an engaging way. More than that, he made the whole experience feel like we were traveling with a friend rather than being on an organized tour. He was incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuinely passionate about making our trip special.
He went above and beyond to make sure we saw everything we hoped for and always put in the extra effort to give us the best possible experience. Watching other safari groups during the trip made us realize just how exceptional our guide Brighton was—many other guides simply didn’t come close to the level of knowledge, enthusiasm, and dedication that we experienced.
A special thank you also goes to Davis, who helped organize and plan our flights. He was available almost 24/7 to answer our questions, responded incredibly quickly, and made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. His support gave us complete peace of mind and made the entire travel experience stress-free.
I can’t recommend this safari highly enough. It was truly the best trip I’ve ever had and an experience I’ll never forget. A huge thank you to everyone! Can’t wait to come back!
