Simply memorable! Once in a lifetime
Fantastic! Breathtaking landscapes, majestic animals that can be seen a few feet away, but above all, warm, jovial and professional people. We were surprised at the level of knowledge of the Lomo guides. They do three years of university and a six-month internship in the park to become a guide. They are real encyclopedias on the fauna and culture of this magnificent country. Their joie de vivre, their laughter and their smiles will remain in our memories forever.
On the organizational side, everything was on point. Everything is planned to make us live a unique experience like sleeping in camps in the Serengeti Park with wild animals near the tents. Hearing the lion roar near your tent is an unforgettable moment. But don't be afraid, it's safe and the camps are surrounded by lights all night long.
We particularly enjoyed our experience at the Maramboi Tented Lodge. Imagine a plain with zebras, wildebeests, giraffes a few feet from your window, all with a majestic lake in the background. Breathtaking. The hotels and the food are excellent. Dinners on safari days are simple but very good with choices for all tastes including vegetarians. We had hot meals even at noon in the middle of nature and unlimited fruit.
Plan your trips well because these are dirt roads and it's quite rough at times. The distances can be long depending on your choices and it can be quite tiring but this fatigue is largely compensated by what we have seen. So, in summary I highly recommend Lomo. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent service to the last detail!
I travelled with a few friends from Germany with Utopia Safaris. The communication with Mr. Exaud starting from the planning phase until my departure was seamless and I was always assured of the best and the best is what I received!
Each individual as well as group requirement was taken care of -upto the last detail. For example, the team updated our family and friends back home about our daily itinerary along with pictures which not only helped our loved ones share some of our experiences virtually but also be aware of our whereabouts. The tour guides were friendly and experienced, always up for a good chat and a laugh. Each part of the Safari be it Tarangire, Ngorongoro or Serengeti was simply magical. We definitely left as friends at the end of the Safari. Post the safari, I was travelling alone in Zanzibar. Mr. Exaud and his team in Zanzibar, ensured that I was comfortable until my departure.
Utopia Safaris promised us the time of our life and delivered on that promise! I would highly recommend organising your time in Tanzania with the lovely team at Utopia.

Friendly and reliable.
Had a FANTASTIC tour with Bamboo Ecotours. As a woman traveling alone I felt safe the whole time. Had excellent food & my guide knew a ton about the locations we visited. They were able to secure me a gorilla trekking permit last minute.
I loved my tour and wish I could have stayed longer.

Excellent experience with a great guide
Our 6 days safari was more than we could imagine. Sami is an excellent tour guide and he drives very safely . He has hawk eye and thanks to him we saw 4 of “Big five”. A great experience, to repeat as soon as possible!

They are the best tour company we have travelled with and look forward to joining them again soon
They were excellent communicators and went out of their way to make sure we saw the big 5, were always reliable in their pickup and drop off times. The tour itself was very planned by then and lived up to its amazing expectation! We all loved Atif and hope to tour with him again with our entire family. Their tour is the best value for money and the only way to experience Africa.

Grand tour
Great tour exceeded my expectations, very good hotels and at a super price, the best thing is that they are very reliable, I left a deposit before the pandemic and almost three years later I was able to take the tour and they kept my deposit

The most fantastic safari holiday
Our family has just returned from a week-long holiday to Kenya, organised by Rose at The Luxury Safari Company. We had the most wonderful time - our best holiday on record! - and could not recommend The Luxury Safari Company more highly.
We do not usually use travel companies to organise our trips, but this was our first safari and first journey to sub-Saharan Africa, and so we wanted the guidance of an expert to make sure we had the best experience.
From our first contact with Rose she was highly responsive and professional, keen to assess and understand our needs and desires for the trip. We have an 8 year old son and she was very thoughtful about how travelling with children needs to be factored in at every stage of planning. She presented us with some great options but steered us towards two centres for our holiday - Angama Mara in the Masai Mara and Alfajiri Villas in Diani Beach.
She also planned all flights and transfers to maximise our time away. This included organising a fantastic meet and greet service on arrival in Nairobi where we were whisked through immigration and baggage to the domestic terminal for our connecting flight. Rose also - very thoughtfully - arranged a day room and dinner in Nairobi to take us through a gap between our domestic flight from Diani and our return flight to London. In essence, we didn't need to think or worry about a thing at any point during the trip! If only all long haul travel could feel this way!
The two venues which Rose recommended for our holiday were both absolutely superb. The setting, facilities, food and service at both were flawless and we adored our time at both.
We cannot thank Rose and The Luxury Safari Company enough for arranging the most amazing trip. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services and are looking forward to booking with them again very soon.

Exceptional experience with Extraordinary Africa for our Kenyan Holiday.
Alex from Extraordinary Africa arranged a fabulous 13 night trip for us to Kenya - on safari and the beach. Her knowledge of different areas/camps was excellent but what made the experience exceptional was the time and effort she put into ensuring that the trip was perfect for us. She spent a considerable amount of time establishing what our preferences and priorities were and then suggested a couple of different itineraries which we then tweaked together to finalise the trip. Her patience was very much appreciated and all three lodges we visited were exactly as she described. Every transfer we took and representative we met was carefully co-ordinated and we were assisted at all times by reliable and professional staff and drivers. The whole trip ran like clockwork. We are experienced safari goers but this was the best trip we have made and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Extraordinary Africa for your travels.

Simply the best !
If you want the best Safari and Africa experience of your life, there are not a lot of option. Indeed, only one: Morning Star. They are amazingly organised and prepared. Everything is tailor made for your best experience. They are the best in the Game of the Game drive and will always find the best spots to observe wildlife and will make everything to seek for any of your animal request followed by a clear success of the mission.
We saw the big 5 after 2 hours thanks the Alex Masila the best guide , the bro, the big boss that knows everything about his country, its wildlife and about things in general !
I seeked for several months for the best Tour company and after receiving dozens of quote i was immediatly starstrucked by far by Morning Star. They are fast with the reply, pro, clean especially Robert and their designed are the most pro i have seen.
So we booked and we went to Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru in the best Lodges, seeing amazing wildlife and being pampered all along our journey. They absolutely rocked everything it was a 10/10.
Thanks again to the whole team, it is not for nothing that they are the best rated ones !
