Dume can design your Kenya safari trip wonderful.
5/5

My friend and I chose Dume Africa from at least five hostels. Our guide was John, who loved animals and loved his work. So he was very enthusiastic about introducing each animal to us and telling us how to tell the different species of antelope. He has made us feel very reliable throughout the journey, with 30 years of experience.

Well rounded budget safari
4/5

Went on four day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari. Solo female traveler. Safari was awesome. Caleb was the driver for Masai Mara. He was friendly and appeared to be well experienced. He made sure to stop and show several animals and at a very close distance. Not a dull moment with him.

Mostly good communication with Alex but he was not reachable when the airport pick up driver suddenly decided to transfer me to another driver half way to Masai Mara. He demanded and made me pay the money enroute instead of when we reached the park as Alex said . This got me worried. Alex was not reachable to clarify. It worked out okay in the end. There were other times in this trip where the plan was not communicated at the start and I was transferred between vehicles, or driven a longer route to accommodate other travelers. It would be much better if this is informed to a traveler at least at the start of the day.
My flight got delayed upon arrival and Alex arranged for a special pick up for an extra cost but unfortunately never refunded me the cost of Masai Mara park entrance fee for the day I missed. I didn’t ask. Last day, airport drop off was part of the trip but the driver from Nakuru dropped me off in Nairobi downtown. Another driver asked for some money to take me to the airport. I paid.

Budget tents in Masai Mara I felt are a bit too cheap. No charging outlets, food is quite mediocre, no lights in the tent after a certain time, shower/toilet are bad. Someone I met at breakfast felt the same way. Go for a better lodging if you can afford. Lake Nakuru hotel room and food were pretty good however.

All in all , I am satisfied with the safari and most importantly felt safe as a solo female traveler.

Taking away one star for poor communication about transfers, lack of park entrance fee refund and charging extra airport drop off charge.

Incredible safari, great tour company and good communications
5/5

After extensive research and consideration, I decided to go on my first-ever safari with Pilgrimage Safaris in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and I have no regrets. From the very beginning, the communication with Nowatus was fantastic. He was extremely helpful and always made sure to organize the best tour for me. Nowatus is a kind and trustworthy person, and I had the chance to get to know him a bit better during a ride to Moshi right after my safari. I'm happy to support him through my booking, knowing the money is going to good hands, which was important to me before booking my safari.

I opted for a budget camping safari, and it was an incredibly thrilling experience. I was fortunate enough to see all of the Big 5, which is not always guaranteed. Our guide, Zuma, was undoubtedly one of the best guides in Tanzania and made sure that we had a truly unique experience. As a solo traveler, it was important for me to be part of a great group, and Nowatus did an excellent job placing me with an international group that grew very close over the three days. We had so much fun together, and I'm grateful to have shared this unique experience with them.

Absolutely perfect
5/5

I've been on several trips arranged by Kafu Safaris as I've traveled around Uganda many times. Comparing to my experience with other companies, I always come back to using Kafu as the level of service, just always delivers that little "extra". My tourguide Deo, always acts very professional, paying attention to any needs and makes a pleasant company.
My warmest recommendation.

Fantastic safaritrip in wonderful Kenya - an unrivaled experience
5/5

Unscripted Safaris (Lewis Mungo) provides excellent service and combine their know-how with our wishes and suggestions. We booked really late but Lewis still found us a mix of mid range and luxury lodges in all of the parks.
Our guide Jeremy was a lucky match with our family. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a deep respect for nature.
To everyone who has Kenya on their bucket list: do it ! you won't regret.
To everyone who decides to go : book through Unscripted ! you won't regret.
Thanks Unscripted team, for your dedication to the job, to nature, to the customer.

Great safari experience with Suricata Safaris!
5/5

The safari arrangements by Suricata were very professional. Even though our arrival flight was delayed, the communication with Suricata worked out and they were waiting for us at the airport. Accommodation worked out well in Arusha, Suricata Boma Lodge as well as in Angata Tented lodges in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Suricata Boma Lodge was particularly nice! The food was great in all of these places and in our picknick lunches. Our guide Elias was great and had a very good eye for animals. Definitely recommend their services to anyone. Thank you Suricata Safaris!

He was friendly, accommodating, attentive to our needs,prompt and reliable.
5/5

Tongesai was very quick to answer our emails and answer all the questions we asked. Our adventures started within hours of being picked up from the airport. Our days started early and we stayed busy enjoying the activities throughout the day with enough time to telax a bit before dinner. Our safari guides were very knowledgeable and were able to answer any question we asked. The accommodations were first class at every stop. The success of our trip was due to the expert planning by Tongesai. Everything went as planned and there were no unexpected hiccups. It was a trip well worth the money spent. We would highly recommend Cultural Vibes if you are planning a trip to the Botswana, Zimbabwe area. In fact, we are already working with Tongesai for a return trip next July starting with Kruger National park.

Enthusiastic Guide with lots of experience in spotting animals.
5/5

After our first Game Drive with John we decided to make 2 more with him. He is reluable, enthusiastic, has a lot of experience and has an incredible eye for spotting animals.
As a photographer I appreciate that he is not rushing you and you can take your time for a picture. If I would come again I would go with him all over.
