An unforgettable safari experience
We had an absolutely wonderful few days and truly a dream week, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Emmanuel Mbise.
He was friendly, funny and very knowledgeable, always sharing interesting facts and stories with us and making every day even more enjoyable. He also speaks Spanish very well, which helped us a lot throughout the trip and made communication so easy and comfortable.
Emmanuel was always attentive and made sure we were enjoying every moment. He even took great care to help us get lots of beautiful photos and memories from the trip, which we really appreciated.
Thank you so much for everything, Emmanuel, for taking such good care of us and for making this experience even more special. We truly hope our paths cross again one day.
Asante sana, Emmanuel!

A Perfect Trip
We went on a seven-day safari tour visiting Tarangire, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. Our guide, Innocent, was professional and friendly, while Helena from the sales team was quick to respond and effectively resolved any issues.

A great operator, well organized and very attentive to every detail.
An amazing tour! We spent 4 days on safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and we absolutely loved it. We experienced some incredible moments and stayed in mid-range lodges, which we found to be very good value for money. The food was also delicious every day, and the drivers did an incredible job.

Deceiving consumers
My experience with Inspired Budget Safaris was extremely disappointing and, in my view, completely unacceptable.
I booked a 6-day safari for September 23–28, 2026. According to the original agreement, I was required to pay 30% as a deposit, with the remaining 70% to be paid at their office before the safari.
However, after I had already paid the deposit, the company repeatedly changed the payment arrangement and pressured me to pay the remaining balance in advance. I was repeatedly told that if I did not make the additional payment immediately, they might not be able to arrange my safari.
Because I was worried about losing my safari and my entire trip was approaching, I eventually paid the full USD 1,910.
And after receiving the full payment, everything changed.
The safari was not provided at all. I had to find another safari operator at the very last minute, while already in Kenya.
The company then confirmed in writing that they would give me a full refund. However, despite this written promise, I still have not received my USD 1,910 back.
From my experience, I feel that I was repeatedly pressured to pay money that was not due at that time, and once the company received the full payment, they failed to provide the service and have still not returned my money.
This was not simply a bad safari experience — there was no safari at all.
I trusted this company, followed their payment requests, and paid everything they asked for. In return, I was left without the service I paid for, forced to make emergency alternative arrangements, and am still fighting to get my money back.
I strongly advise other travelers to be extremely careful before making any payment to this company. Get every payment term in writing and do not assume that paying in full will guarantee that your safari will actually take place.
I am still waiting for the full USD 1,910 refund that the company promised in writing.
