Beautiful country of Africa which can be compared to any beautiful country in the world
We, a party of 3 adults travelled to Kenya on 01 May 2023 and returned on 10 May 2023. We principally had 2 main plans - a 4-day safari in Masai Mara and a 4-day trip to Diani beach near Mombasa.
Safari day 1 was spent in Nakuru lakeside in Sarova Lionhill Game Lodge which was is of the best resorts ever for us. Nestled on a mountain overlooking the lake Nakuru it had the most scenic views. Game drive from the resort was fantastic with white rhinos, buffalos, gazelles, flamingos, baboons, etc.
Masai Mara savannah is a place to visit at least once everyone's lifetime. Although we were in a lean season (which is better as less tourists) the number of animals were fewer than peak season from July to September but it worked better for us as we could more spend more time at key places. We saw all the big five including lion kill, leopard kill and more...
Our tour guide Solomon from Explorer Kenya Safaris was very courteous, knowledgeable, knew Masai Mara like the back of his hand so he could take us to all the happening places with ease.

Amazing, they took very good care for us and food was amazing even for vegetarians!
We had a very good experience of the safari. Saw 4 out of big 5 (&much more)
The food was amazing (despite we being vegetarians) and so were the guides, Quinton, Victor and Raymond.
We would have loved to do something on our last day as we had of a bit of time so please do plan your days in advance.
The tree house was a great experience to stay one of a kind! Would recommend to stay for a day!

Every effort was made to accommodate us to our satisfaction
We were picked up at our place of residence and transported very comfortably to Hazeyview where we were picked up and driven to Pretoriuskop inside the Kruger Park. The accommodation in Pretoriuskop was very basic. the problems we had with the shower in the chalet was not the fault of the tour operator. Inside the Park Mbombele Experience was responsible for game drives in a safari vehicle and catering. the driver who was also the leader of the safari, was competent and very knowledgeable.
a basic breakfast was provided during a stop in the early morning game drive. lunch was not provided but was available at our own cost at the restaurant in the camp. dinner was served after the late afternoon game drive. it was tasty me cooked food but again very basic. the young man who was the cook and general factotum was charming and made every effort to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. going home was not as smooth as our previous transport had been but MoAfrica sorted out the problems quickly and efficiently. this was a well run and enjoyable budget tour.

Very convenient and affordable
Very convenient way to travel and relax at the same time. Adequate space for all passengers and sufficient rest stops along the way. Service also runs daily both ways which is an extra bonus.

Good
The safari was very nice and guides very nice too. The hotel is well located and employees (for most of them) are helpful and pleasant. We had an issue with our room. We were supposed to sleep in a tent but this type of accommodation cannot welcome 3 people. We had to sleep in another room which was not in our booking… so we were disappointed with this part. But overall, we were happy with organisation, safari and hotel. Thank you

Good Safari!
The Safari all together was good, but I changed 3 times the group in 6 days, which is quite annoying in the end.
So I dont know, with which operator I was going exactly.
But in the end it worked out, saw what I like to see and the Game Drives, where good and successfull.
The god thing, different to Kenia, you do need to spot the animals, means like I'm used to it.
The comunicación was very good, you get allways a response If you ask something.
