Easy communication, perfect Tour (also for children!)
What an amazing experience! We travelled with our 2 children (both below 10) and from the very beginning of the planning process KingTomondo was extremely nice and helpful. Lisa and Niklas are such a lovely team. Communication was super good, it seems you can write to them at 4 in the morning and still get an answer almost immediately. They also speak German, which was extra convenient. We had quite a lot of questions about the tour and also about a few days at the beach before the tour, and they easily guided us through all of that. They even recommended a few hotels and lodges for us which specifically cater to the needs of children.
Later, on safari, our guide Said was wonderful. Always smiling, friendly and very very helpful. We enjoyed both his company and his knowledge a lot, also (and even especially!!) the kids. I can recommend to anyone to take your kids on a safari, it is such an adventure for them! Whenever we come back to Kenya, we will go straight to KingTomondo again. You can't go wrong with them, super friendly, easy going and professional. 100% Recommended!

Memorable 4 days safari!
We are two Canadian volunteers working in Zanzibar and we got recommanded the 4 days Safaris with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris by our fellow volunteers.
Wow!!! Our experience was memorable. We saw so many animals, it seems like our guide knew were they were hiding! Massive packs of wild animals, big cats protecting their babies against hyena, cheetahs climbing on our jeep, a lovely lion wedding and roaring lions around our tents at night was more then we expected. We lived incredible moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
All of that was possible because of the professionalism of Serengeti Wakanda. The communications before the trip were fast and clear. The staff did the extra mile to pick us up after our landing. Everything they planed was respected and we even got more! With Mood as a guide and Meshark as our cook, we were fully satisfied and we laughed quite a lot. We received valuable information on the animals and the wild life in general. We had plenty of food and drinks for the entire 4 days.
Barto and Carlson, the owners, are running this business with great enthousiasm and a tremendous love for the animals. To the whole team of Serengeti Wakanda, we are thankful and we absolutely recommanded this tour operator to anyone who wants a reliable, unforgettable and entertaining safari.
Asante sana warafiki!

Outstanding! An unforgettable trip!
The custom 11-day safari arranged by Earthlife Expeditons was an indescribably wonderful adventure. Our personable and knowledgeable driver/guide, Daniel Ballela opened our eyes to see not only the exotic and magnificent animals of Tanzania but also to glimpse amazing aspects of animal behavior in protected natural habitats. Daniel could sense where we could find not only lions, elephants, giraffes, leopards, cheetahs, and cape buffaloes but also provided us with a close encounter with a rare black rhino!
All details of the trip were superbly handled by Earthlife Expeditons from the bookings to the accommodations to the route through the Ngorongoro Conversation Area to the North and Central Serengeti. We particularly enjoyed the excursions guided by local villagers and rangers to get a close up view of daily life there. Esau was very informative in Mtowambu.
I highly recommend Earthlife Expeditons and Daniel Belela. This trip was not on my “bucket list,” but it should have been! I am so glad we chose to go with Earthlife and Daniel.

Compass Odyssey helped us plan an amazing trip to southern Africa
We selected Compass Odyssey for our Africa experience and we couldn't be happier. We'd narrowed our search down to a few agencies after some initial inquiries and selected Compass Odyssey because of the wealth of detailed information they provided an their low-key/low-pressure approach. Darren and Kate provided prompt responses to all of our questions, and we can't say enough about the information packets they provided. We never felt pressured in making our decision even as some lodgings were filling up while we were working out the details. We had a busy two weeks that included time in Cape Town, the greater Kruger area, Victoria Falls, Chobe, and the Okavango Delta. Darren and Kate tailored the itinerary to our needs and wishes, and the lodgings and guides at every location exceeded our expectations. The arrangements Darren and Kate made for us allowed us to relax and enjoy our experience instead of worrying about how we were going to get to the next destination or what to expect once we got there. Everything went according to schedule, and we had a seamless transition from one place to the next: ALL of the details were well-thought-out and taken care of. One of our big concerns prior to the trip was food/meals, since we are both gluten and dairy intolerant, and the lodges and lodgings Darren and Kate arranged were able to accommodate our needs without a problem. We will certainly choose Compass Odyssey for our next adventure in Africa. Thank you, Darren and Kate!

Did work out at the end !
The company may be a good tour company but certainly can’t carter to luxury travellers. The communication was nonexistent but most things happened as they our itinerary stipulated. Safaris’s experience was rushed for later part of the trip but that’s because of wrong flights booked and so on.

After checking a few reviews online I decided to get in touch with best memory safaris to book our holiday of a lifetime. From my initial contact with Isaac (owner) to the run up to our departure date, best memory were very accomodating, from answering questions to working the package around us. I explained what we were looking for (1 week safari, 1 week beach) and Isaac came up with the perfect itinerary. He was more than happy to find us alternatives to parts of the itinerary that we weren't happy with and was always quick to reply. We arrived in Nairobi after which we were to start the safari the following day. We were picked up (though late) by Steve who was to be our driver/ guide for the week at which point we also met Isaac. Lovely friendly guys. We had the most remarkable experiences of our lives during the first week of the safari's. The accomodation that Isaac had arranged was beyond what we were expecting and overall we had a wonderful experience which will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Steve was pleasant throughout our trip and let us enjoy our time without us feeling we had a third person with us. Though I wish he was a little more enthusiastic, as were we, about the trip and experiences, especially coming to the end of the safari week. We started the second week in Mombasa and again were not disappointed with our choice of hotel. We had a wonderful stay and a lovely experience dealing with Isaac and Best memory safaris as a whole and would definitely recommend to others.

Great experience!
We had an awesome 5-day group safari and went to Tarangeri, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Organisation and communication with Bryson upfront was very good. Moreover Juma, our driver and guide, was the best guide I've ever met: he spotted the wildlife very well and knew everything about the animals. He has repaired the jeep several times (which was the only thing that could be better: the tyres of the jeep). Moreover, Markus was an excellent and cheerful cook: his smile when serving the food made us happy every day. To conclude: highly recommended!

Trip of a lifetime!
This was an outstanding trip from the moment we booked until we arrived back home. Every question was answered quickly and the preparation information was spot on. This company is unique in that the have 12,000 acres of land leased from the Government home of the Masai. For this Thomson provides a hospital and school also running programs to empower women who have no source of income. Only Thomson guests have access to the land and their safari camp. That alone was worth choosing this company. A wonderful cultural experience with animals galore. We traveled to 3 camps throughout Tanzania seeing the Big 5 and ending with 3 nights at Gibbs Farm. An experience not to be missed! Our guide during the safari, Babu was the best. He never missed a question, of which there were many and nothing was too much trouble. We hated to say goodbye to him! We would highly recommend Thomson to anyone that is looking for a unique and memorable safari where animals and culture intertwine to give a full picture of this beautiful country and it’s people.
