Amazing wildlife and people
We went on a short 3-day safari in August 2023 in Nyerere park. We were fortunate to see so many incredible animals including lions, elephants, and giraffes while driving through a diverse and always changing landscape. Our lodge was so warm and welcoming, providing delicious local foods for meals. The weather was perfect with only a short burst of rain one day. We also spent time on Zanzibar, lounging on a beautiful beach that exposed so much wildlife at low tide including seaweed farming. The water was blue, clear, and so so warm! I would go back in a heartbeat!

Most incredible experience of a life time!
My son and I traveled to South Africa. We did a safari in the Umkumbe reserve, and saw an incredible amount of wildlife, we even saw a rare pangolin. The guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. The accommodations were clean and detailed, we even had a hot water bottle waiting in our beds for a warm night sleep. We then traveled to Cape Town and visited Table Mountain, Roben Island, Boulder beach to see the penguins and swam with the seals. We wanted to go and dive with the great white sharks, but due to climate change these beast have not been seen on the coast for the past 4 years. A GREAT BIG thank you to Ilana for arranging the trip, it was perfect right down to every detail. Highly recommend this trip of a life time. A bucket list fulfilled!

Simon and Real Africa Safaris is the best!!!
Extraordinary and incredible, but those words don't do justice to a trip with Simon. We did a 2 day, 1 night boat/safari/camping in Chobe National Park. Simon is incredibly knowledgeable in not only finding the animals, but he knows their behavior which provided advanced notice to us for some great photos. He also keep lighting in mind when positioning the vehicle or boat for great photos. We always felt safe, comfortable and well informed with Simon. We would absolutely recommend Simon for the ultimate Africa experience. We even had honey badger, elephants and hyena walk trough our campsite.

Very easy and helpful to deal with.
We recently went to Kenya for our honeymoon. We found Lenchada Safaris extremely helpful and professional to deal with. We spent time in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli National Parks. All were excellent but the Masai Mara was my favourite. All our Accommodation was all inclusive which was great as we didn't have to worry about keeping money on our persons and all accommodation facilities were first class. We saw all of the animals we hoped to see and it was a superb trip.
One major factor which made our trip so enjoyable was we really landed on our feet to be paired with Dickson Mutaiti as our guide. He was with us for the duration of the trip and was immense. His knowledge of the Natural World is staggering and he answered each and every one of the many questions we had for him about the animals in great detail. Wildlife is obviously far more than a job for him, it is clearly also a passion. He also displayed a first rate knowledge of the flora and fauna of the country and gave us great information on all aspects of this.
We covered huge distances between national parks, but time flew in the jeep with Dickson as he also gave us lessons in the social, cultural, economic and political history of Kenya as well as filling us in on current affairs around the country. His English is excellent and I can honestly say it was like having another friend travelling along with us. He is an engaging conversationist who made the trips very enjoyable. He was also very flexible and had no problem adapting to any requests regarding itinerary or times changes we had.
All in all I would rate the trip as first class, and Lenchada Safaris, and in particular Dickson, played a major role in this being so enjoyable. I couldn't rate him any higher except to say if you are booking with Lenchada Safaris, you will be very lucky to have him as your guide.

Excellent value for money
Tremendous value for money.
Our guide Charles went above and beyond for us to see as much of the Mara as possible.
Would highly recommend, especially for those short on time or on a budget. Accommodation is basic but as advertised.

Amazing family trip and top notch service
Amazing experience with Reny Safari. From my first inquiry to the last day of our trip I was met with professionalism and excellence. Regina was so helpful in all the scheduling and answering of my MANY question, and always in a timely fashion. We were referred to Reny Safari from a friend who had done two multi week trips with them. Reny came highly recommended by this trusted friend.
On the trip, everything met and exceeded our expectations. Our guide was top notch and very knowledgeable. He was a Masai tribe member so he had all the inside information and connections to make our trip just perfect. The Sopa Lodges were lovely. The Lake Nakuru Sopa knocked our socks off. Wow! It was so gorgeous in every way and the staff was so warm and professional. We were treated so well there and created many special memories in those spaces. The Mara Sopa Lodge was nice as well but more dated. They didn’t have quite the level of service as Lake Nakuru.
The safari drives were amazing. I think we saw every animal on our list except the illusive leopard. We had front row views of a lioness and her cubs eating a zebra, herds of wildebeest, zebra, giraffe, hyena, elephant, rhinos, hippos, ostrich, impala, gazelle, crocodile, and so many more! Jonathan our guide educated us about our views.
Thank you for an amazing, once in a lifetime trip! The people of Kenya are dear to us and this place will hold a special place in our hearts.

Awesome
This was my second safari experience and I must say it's better than my first one. The organisation, communication and openness is appreciated. I can't say much about the game drive because it speaks for itself. I had a chance of touring the famous Kibera slums. I loved interacting with the people.
You can trust Paul's Untamed Escapades to deliver a memorable safari.

Unforgettable experience, great organization!
From the beginning we had a very good contact with Robert and Dennis from morningstarsafaris who put our Safari together. They recommended things to us that were absolutely worth it!
When we arrived at the airport, our guide Alex was already waiting for us with great enthusiasm. He has been on this trip with us and is truly Kenya's best driver driving the coolest new Landcruiser.
He also knows a lot about the animals and nature and has a good eye for photography.
I don't know how he did it but Alex was always in the right place at the right time to see and photograph the animals. He also arranged an unforgettable birthday in the Masai Mara for our son who turned 11.
We are already looking forward to going on another adventure with Alex and Morningstarsafaris!

The best safari experience we could wish for
Tanzania Offroad Trips is the most transparent, honest and best tour operation company I've experienced in whole Africa. My boyfriend and I were backpacking through Tanzania for a month and had the most amazing experience with Robert, the owner of Tanzania Offroad Trips. He did not only offered us the best safari experiences we could wish for, but he also became a very close friend of ours. This is a company that doesn't want to make a lot of money, but really wants to provide people an amazing experience. And that's what a good company does. Robert listens to your wishes and discusses together what the best option is for you. In addition, he is super transparent about the prices, so you can be sure to pay a fair price. Our tour guide, Paul, was also great and knew a lot about the wildlife and nature. After our safaris, Robert came to our accommodation to discuss how the trip had gone and what animals we had seen. Robert ensures that the safari trip is arranged in the last detail from start to finish and wants to make sure that every customer has had a fantastic experience.
Looking for a fantastic safari trip organized by a professional, experienced and transparent organization? With Tanzania Offroad Trips you're definitely in good hands!
