The beauty of the Namibian desert
My first experience in a desert environment, the Namib-Naukluft National Park offers amazing scenic panoramas, dune climbing, desert wildlife, great weather and excellent accommodations. A must if you visit Namibia.

An amazing adventure.
Experienced many good surprises in Kenya. First, the Kenyan people are so wonderful…kind, gentle, civil, appreciative. Every American should be required to visit to learn how to treat others! Second, the animals….seeing in their natural habitats…amazing beauty. Third, the food…fresh and unprocessed, so delish!! We always felt safe.

Fantastic experience
Recently got back from a 2 week holiday in Kenya . We travelled around 6 national parks on a safari trip with Meektrail safaris followed by 4 lazy days at The Swahili beach hotel on Diani beach . All of the national parks offered something different and we thoroughly enjoyed everyone however the Masai Mara , Amboselli and Lake Naivasha were my personal favourites and the ones I would highly recommend . We did a lot of travelling about by road and really enjoyed seeing a different way of life . We found the Kenyan people to be very friendly . Nice to have the lazy days by the beach at the end of our trip o the lovely Diani beach . The only slight negative I had about the entire trip were that the beach boys and beggars in Diani became a bit tiresome at times making a nice simple walk on the beach or into town feel like hard work .

An exceptional company that gave our family with an unbelievable, once in a life-time experience!
I cannot recommend this travel company more! Lightness did an exceptional job working with us, a group of 10 family members, to map out a trip that accommodated everyone’s wishes at an incredibly great price. Everything was perfectly orchestrated and methodically planned. Lightness made every effort to communicate frequently and effectively before, during, and after the trip. The driver/guides, Bon and George, worked tirelessly to ensure we had the best possible safari experience. They treated us like family, kept us safe, shared a wonderful sense of musicality and humour, and clearly were experienced and knowledgeable. The accommodations that were arranged and the food at each location far surpassed my expectations! This safari trip could not have been any better due to the incredible planning, care and expertise of all the people in this company. Bon and George will be forever remembered for all that they gave us on our experience of a life-time!

Ayubu Delivers the Most Inspiring, Safe and Fun Safari Experience
Ayubu was not only deeply knowledgeable about the routes and terrain but also had an incredible insight for the wildlife we encountered. He spot animals from a distance and share fascinating anecdotes into their behaviors and habitats. Whether it was lions lounging in the shade, elephants moving majestically through the plains, or giraffes strolling in the trees, our guide knew exactly where to take us for the best views.
His driving skills were impeccable as well, effortlessly navigating the rugged and uneven terrain, ensuring we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey. We got perfect shots of the wildbeests crossing the Mara river and close up photos of vultures enjoying their feasts. Ayubu even helped up took some pictures from afar, which was super helpful.
If you don't want to get lost when it gets dark and just enjoy the nature and the animals, Ayubu is the guide to go with!! Highly recommended to all!

Fantastic
My first safari with myself and my partner so I really didn’t know what to expect. Sammy our guide was absolutely fantastic, a walking encyclopaedia of information as well as being one of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure to meet. I also met the business owner who was a really polite and humble guy. I managed to photo not only the big five but also have some encounters with many other animals and had some very rare sightings. I would recommend to anyone, new or experienced. I will be back again next year and will be using Ramja again.

Amazing Safari
We have just returned from a fantastic safari arranged by safari 360. They arranged everything for us and came up with an incredible itinerary. All communication with them prior to our departure was swift, courteous and helpful so when we set off our expectations were high.
Our expectations were met and surpassed. Our guide, Amos met us at the airport. Amos stayed with us throughout. He was our driver, guide and expert animal and bird spotter. He was polite, friendly and we were very happy to spend time with him. Amos showed us animals we didn’t think we had any chance of seeing and tried his hardest to find us rhinos and complete the big 5. Amos made sure our holiday was truly a once in a lifetime incredible experience!
The accommodation arranged was brilliant, most were tented camps and far more luxurious than we were expected. All had en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water, even in the middle of the Serengeti. The food was great, mainly buffet style with plenty of variety and as much as we wanted to eat. Lunches were packed lunch style, but there was plenty of it.
All in all, we had an amazing time and we would recommend the company and particularly Amos. Thank you all for making our experience superb.
