Adventure of a lifetime
We loved our driver, saw all the animals we came to Africa to see, and had the most memorable experience. Our driver was very knowledgeable about the zoology of all the animals and the history of the Serengeti. The only thing I would have changed about our trip is signing up for a 5 or 6 day safari versus the full 8 day safari. We saw 80% of what we wanted to see on the very first day, so 8 days wasn't necessary.

Nice and Realiable Company!
This company organized our tour for Rwanda and Brundi.
Tour was excellent! (The guide, Arrangment of transportation, restaurant, time control etc..)
If I go to Rwanda, Uganda, Brundi or other african countries near these countries, I definitly would ask to this company for arrangement of the tour.
Thank you so much for your excellent job! Mr. Reginal and Odyek!

Awesome company to deal with, lifetime memories
What an amazing experience we had.
Bobbys attention to detail was there from the very beginning, from our initial contact to the final quotes. He was very particular in asking what we wanted to achieve and delivered exactly what we asked for. We were a group of 9, all vegetarians. And so you can imagine that our demands were quite varied and we needed to get that right. Very pleased to say that Bobby delivered that.
Initial enquiries were from London and we had several chats and telephone conversations via whatapp. Response was very quick even when I sent a message on Friday night UK time and it was 1am in Tanzania.
When we arrived in Tanzania, we were greeted by one of the drivers at the airport who then took us to our hotel. Hotels were also booked by Bobby in Arusha for a days rest. We met up face to face the very next day and went through the itinerary again. Once again, very thorough and was exactly as we had requested.
We left for a 5 day/4 night safari in two cars, with probably the two best drivers in Arusha. Both Jolis and Seid were fantastic and throughout the safari, very patient and courteous. Thanks to these two, we managed to see all the major animals, including the big 5 and the illusive cheetah.
Would I use him again? YES !!! , without a shadow of doubt.

Excellent safari holiday with great range of animals seen
This was our first safari and we had an absolutely superb time. The organisation was excellent, and we saw much more than we could have hoped for before the trip.
We travelled in two vans with Agoy and Polycarp as our guides. They were both extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the areas we travelled in, the wildlife that we saw, the local people and life in Kenya in general.
We travelled to several wildlife areas and saw an amazing range of animals and birds. The guides were always very keen to get us to the best spotting areas and we had multiple game drives each day. Their local knowledge and relationship with the wardens meant that we were always in the right place at the right time. As well as the wildlife we also visited several workers co-operatives, a local school and small towns and villages.
The hotels we stayed in were excellent with good food and very comfortable rooms. Agoy is well known throughout Kenya and this helps in getting the best treatment everywhere – in hotels, rest stops, game reserve entrances etc.
We will certainly be going on safari again and it will definitely be with Affable Tours.

Awesome experience
Tanzania is the greatest place to be for a safari and the tour was made all the more special with our tour guide Jolly who made us feel secure and safe ..
He made sure that we were able appreciate the wilderness and the animals ..
Murthaza (the owner) given us all information related to Tanzania safari and quoted us the reasonable/competitive price. He supported all through our 6 day safari by keeping in touch with us about progress of the safari. He met us on the day of arrival and explained our tour itinerary.
Jolly made sure we see almost all possible animals. The highlight of the trip was taking us to see the migration in Mara river area wherein we were fortunate to see the river crossing of wildbeasts. Also he took us as close as possible to animals to have a better look.
Overall it was a great unforgettable trip which we never forget in our life time!!

A dream came true!
Together with my 20 year old son, we visited Africa for the first time. We booked through the Dutch agency www.safariinafrica.nl and were welcomed by Muli and our driver Peter in our hotel in Nairobi. The first day we drove to Amboseli. Peter is an amazing guide, he knew exactly what the elephants planned to do when there were too many cars surrounding them, so we had an amazing view!
Unfortunately Peter got sick the next day and a replacement was arranged very professionally. Paul accompanied us the rest of the trip and did a wonderful job. He spotted a lot of animals and told us so many interesting stories. We went from Lake Navaisha to Lake Nakuru and last but not least Masai Mara. In 6 days we spotted the Big Five, a dream came true!
When we got back to Nairobi, Muli came to the hotel to ask us about our experiences. Very much appreciated!
Since we had not other Safari experiences we cannot compare, but for us it was all so well organised; the communication, the Safari itself, the people, the accomodations, the food: excellent service from the beginning to the end!

Rongai route trek and safari
My friend and I Planed the safari of our dream . Fatuma was absolutely amazing in helping us get the trip set up exactly how we wanted and it was a dream come true. Our trekking guides, Bernard and Said made the hike a ton of fun and were super motivating the entire time. Their whole crew was nothing short of perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better trekking crew to be on that journey with!
After the trek we went on a safari journey through Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area. The team are really took in to consideration what we wanted to see and what we liked to eat. Our guide Dickson made sure we saw as many of our favorite animals as possible and helped to find the animals that had babies with them because he knew we enjoyed seeing them. Our chief, Magoma’s cooking was among the best of the best. Everything was delicious and flavorful.
I can’t recommend this adventure enough and Claws of Africa made everything seamless for us.
