Awful tour for affordable price level.
We can truly say, we had a great tour with many highlights, especially in Maasai Mara, where we got in close contact to the big five. Before starting the tour we had no big expectations, but after the tour all our expectations have been fulfilled. The accommodations were okay as well as the food, which was served. We had a perfect guide (Arony). He was a very good and safe driver and took care about us all the time. We can recommend Karibu Safaris in Kenya to all, who would like a budget and no luxory safari.

A fantastic adventure through South Africa
Going on safari with Benjamin as our guide was perfect.
Benjamin is very enthusiastic, he knows a lot about the nature and culture of South Africa and he is a real gentlemen.
Thanks to him it was a great journey that we will never forget.

Excellent and very friendly team.
The whole team of ACZ were good and friendly during our visit to Kenya last week. Our tour guide Mr. John is very funny and knows exactly where to spot the animals! Thanks to him we have some amazing pictures and memories to carry. Joshua is an excellent co-coordinator and will be available always to answer your questions. Hope to avail their services again in future.
Scope for improvements:
The lunch arranged during game drive can be better.

Great adventure, but ended up going with Greg Adventures
We had a top-notch experience. We did a 3 day safari through Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and everything went as expected. Sammy, our driver, was really really great and one of the main reasons we ended up seeing so many animals and so close to us. Same as our cook, who provided us with great meals over these days.
The negative point is that we end up going with a different company (Greg Adventures) after asking by email and being told that we weren't going with a partner of them. It was quite a big surprise when we arrived and we noticed we were going with a different company. So there's not really a lot we can say about Face of Africa, but we can 100% advise you to go with Greg Adventures.

Good
Well organized tour. Accommodating to our schedule and our time delay.
The tents could have been cleaned at least once a day. The breakfast required a bit more variety to accommodate for allergies and dietary restrictions. A good tour but some room for improvement

great trip - Gorillas , volcano , monkeys and lots of beautiful countryside in just 4 days
Nicolas did a great job suggesting and refining our itinerary over 3- 4 weeks before we settled on a 4 day trip out of Kigali . Great hotels , fantastic guiding and a wonderful few days with my daughter seeing the gorillas , climbing a 12,000ft volcano and finishing off with the golden monkeys . and after all that dropping us back at Kigali airport to catch our flight home . Great value and should be someone you contact if you are looking to have a well organised trip

Wonderful
Me and my husband were looking for a Safari Operator, which offers a mid-range safari & covers some specific National Parks of Kenya. Therefore we used safari bookings.com. This is how we found Kenya Safari Arcade with good reviews. Finally we booked the "6-Day Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli" via Edith. A really good decision! Everything went very smooth: she answered all our questions and also the payment went without any troubles.
We were very satisfied with the chosen accommodations, especially with the Basecamp Masai :-))))
And our Guide David was also a really nice guy! The only thing, which can be improved a bit is the minivan. On some bumpy roads it was really not that comfortable.
Altogether: We can really recommend Kenya Safari Arcade and would also choose this Operator again.

Trustworthy and well planned.
We were picked up at the airport by a representative from the company before transferred to our guide.
The drive to Masai Mara took approx. 6 hours. We had a flat tire, and with a short game drive we didn't reach the camp before after 7,5 hours.
This drive could have been skipped as we had already traveled for 20+ hours.
It was dark when we reached the camp so we didn't see much. Received a welcome drink and escorted to our tent for some freshing up before dinner.
All the food was fantastic and the service was second to none. We felt very welcome and taken care of.
Our guide picked us up at 8 am, way later than the other guests, but seeing it was our honeymoon we didn't want to rush.
We saw A LOT of animals! Our guide obviously knew where to drive. It was really impressive to see how they remembered all the roads crossing each other. We had a whole car for our selves, which was great. Except for one time where we forgot the clock and lost track of the direction in the dark, this trip was everything we had imagined and more! The transfer back to Nairobi was well organized and everything went smoothly.
We would recommend using Classic Journeys when booking a safari in Africa.
