Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by Lori Carlisle
We had some great sightings in Masai Mara - 12 lion, cheetah, leopard as well as lots of birds. We visited in February and were glad that there were not hoards of tourists. Highly recommend a visit.

Review about Hell's Gate National Park by Lori Carlisle
Great experience riding a bike through the National Park. So cool to be up close and personal with wildlife!

Beautiful country with so much to see and do!
We loved the experience of staying at a lodge in private game reserve which allowed us to see wildlife up close! Kruger was also amazing, but just a different experience. I would highly recommend combining both of those types of safaris.
The lodge was absolutely beautiful and comfortable. Food was amazing and the staff very friendly. Amazing experience for us for sure!

Beautiful place with lovely people
We loved the Serengeti. Just where there for 2 days but saw a lot of animals very close by. A 4 day safari would have been even better.
Don’t expect to see the rhino, though. Chances are below 5%.
And check the wildbeast migration map first, before you book a lodge.
The Melia Lodge was fantastic, though.

Super friendly people, good wildlife and excellent lodges.
We really enjoyed our recent trip to Kenya. We were a little guarded about safety when we first arrived but were soon put at ease. While waiting at the airport for our hotel transfer a number of different people approached us to see if they could help. One fellow even called the hotel for us. As North Americans, we thought that people wanted something from us or to scam us but this was not the case. People were genuinely wanting to help us out. Such a nice feeling. We visited Masai Mara, Kakamega Forest, Saiwa Swamp, Lake Nakuru and Lake Navisha - all places had something different to showcase and made for an enjoyable, informative trip. Highly recommend a trip to Kenya if you are a wildlife enthusiast

Everything you dreamt for in a trip to Africa
Diani Beach and Tsavo East - what an experience
Diani was probably the most beautiful beach I've been to personally thus far. Stayed at Baobab resort and The Sands at Nomad and both were fantastic in their own way.
Baobab - fun activities, all you can eat, several pools, the hotel staff including the Jambo team were AMAZING. Simply put, more life. The Sands - serene, calm, you'll have everything you need in order to reset and use your vacation for its purpose. Great restaurants. Absolute top hotel.
Tsavo East was my first Safari experience and it was magical. We used africamosaictours as our agents and stayed at Salt Lick Lodge. The lodge was built around a waterhole so you could imagine the cozyness and surreality of being around the wild animals constantly. All in all, this was a fantastic stay in this beautiful country.

Animals in the Wild
Cape Town is a great city, from the mountains to the sea, we toured with a driver up to the Table Mountain,the cable car displaying fantastic views,down to the city and out along the coast and seaward,
The beaches were good and and close to the city,
We travelled out to a Safari Resort(,Along way from Cape Town) Mossel Bay, Botlierskop Private Game Reserve,
it was well worth the drive,
and everything there was wonderful, the Lodge and Meals excellent, the Rooms very comfortable with many types as options,swimming pool ,spa,etc
The staff and Game guides were perfect, the vehicles well maintained and comfortable, we saw many animals including Cheeters, Lions, Rhino, Hippo, Giraffes, Elephants, and bird species, we did 4 game drives, early morning and late afternoon, Each one stopping for refreshments along the way, each drive about 3 hours, recommend this Lodge

Amazing nature and Wildlife
We spend an amazing 3 days tant safari with Crater Explorer. We did Serengeti and Ngorondoro. The views are breath taking!!! We saw all the big five several times and from really near! Frederic our guide had eagle eyes to spot them, and was really great. Funny & passionate.
Our cook renamed Chief by us, really take carte of us and the food was delicious.
We met also really Nice people « pôle pole »
If you havé Time only for one Park : choose Ngorondoro the views and animals are everywhere. Also you will see lit of Massai. So beautiful. We choose not to do their village but they are with their cattle all around Ngorondoro. We were in tents ( confortable!) and saw amazing sun set and sunrise.
I raté only 4 cause bad luke my bag was grabbed in Arusha by guys in moto ( this can happen everywhere of course) but we rented a car in zanzibar and each Time we took it police attested us to ask for money under any pretext. So just be vigilant!
Conclusion : Tanzania is amazing we hightly recommand to go for safari.

A top notch company that knows what it's doing in the tourism sector!
Rafa Safaris provided my friends and I with an unforgettable trip to Jinja, filled with adventure, education, and excitement. The highlight for me was the visit to the Railway Museum where we were able to explore the history of the railway in Uganda.
Another highlight was tubing down the Nile, which was an exhilarating and unforgettable adventure. We got the chance to swim in River Nile and the scenery along the river was breathtaking, and the thrill of the rapids added an extra element of excitement.
Our tour guide was knowledgeable and passionate about various subjects, making the whole experience both informative and engaging and also kept time and was extremely friendly and flexible.
I highly recommend Rada Safaris to anyone looking for a memorable travel experience.
