The best safari we have had
This was by far the best safari we have had. We can’t express enough how wonderful an experience we had far exceeding our Expectations. We visited Amboseli National Park with Our guide John .His knowledge, patience and his good mood, ensured we saw as many different animals as possible. The Lodges we stayed in had very delicious Food and the service unmatched!
In one sentence: fabulous experience with African Sermon Safaris and we recommend them with our eyes closed! A thousand thanks to our driver John. Hakuna matata!

Trip ran like clockwork from start to finish a first class service and product.
We were collected from the hotel in zanzibar and taken to the airport. Flights were on time and landed in selous game park. Stayed at lake Manze lodges. The accommodation and food was beyond expectation. The game drives and water safaris were excellent along with the Bush breakfast. A fantastic trip.

A not so good experience. What was promised and communicated on mail and whatsapp, was not delivered
The communication with George was very good via email and whatsapp. The itinerary that we both agreed on was not followed. As soon as the balance of the payment was done before the journey, things were changed randomly. I had specifically asked George to start with a night at Nakuru and then 3 nights at Mara. The plan was reversed without being informed. After 2 nights in Mara, we were informed that we would be heading out to Nakuru and Naivasha for a day each. I had to put my foot down and show them the itinerary which clearly said 3 nights at Mara. The driver obliged and put us into another van. In 5 days, we changed 3 vans and drivers which was a put off. Also, the camps and lodges I had specifically asked for and agreed upon by them, was changed. Although luckily, we ended up being in a good camp. Unfortunately the lodge at Nakuru was pathetic, to say the least.
The safari itself was a fantastic experience. Maasai mara has to be seen to be believed. The sheer vastness of land exclusively for animals is something that blew us away. Will surely make it a once a year affair.

Well Planned Holiday
I called and explained that I was planning a lifetime safari trip to Tanzania . After discussing dates , budget and expectations we agreed on a itinerary visiting four parks in Northern circuit and then finishing up with a few days relaxing in Zanzibar .
Planning was done almost a year in advance and we had lots of time to wait . Paying deposits through online and final payment were smooth and after getting closer to departure I was sent all my confirmed documents and final itinerary.
From the moment I cleared customs in Kilimanjaro
International Airport until being dropped off for my return trip to America , I was always well taken care of. Escorts and drivers were all on time and spoke English well . My itinerary had been well organized and went off without a hitch . I would not hesitated to recommend Jaribu Africa Adventures to anyone .

A Safari come true
As a family, we've been planning an African safari for years. Since this would also be the first time deposits and payments were required before arrival, I carefully reviewed proposals from 6-7 established names that came highly recommended. After exhaustive review over many weeks, our decision for Tazama Africa Holidays boiled down to 3 things: 1) Antony's itinerary was more original than the rest 2)It provided real value on the ground in actual safari time, not days spent on the road or in cities, and 3) Antony came through with every ridiculous verification I asked for, from booking confirmations to pics of vehicles, without questions, any time of day, fully transparent. The moment of truth came when all 5 of us arrived for our two week safari; deposit paid months before to secure accommodation and full payment day before arrival. Antony and his staff delivered everything they promised in the itinerary beyond our expectation. We were delighted with the range of accommodation from wilderness tents to dream lodges, efficient, seamless travel and transfers, and most importantly we saw first-hand action every day on safari and learnt so much that Samburu, Nakuru, Olpejeta, Maasai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, came alive for us. Every day something exciting and unexpected on safari - lost count of the numerous animal and bird species, saw hunts, kills, herds migrating, newborns - very little we missed and a lot more than we bargained for. Before the safari, I admit I was sceptical about the perfect reviews Tazama had received, but having experienced it first-hand now, I realize its because of Antony's tireless energy to ensure his customers have the best experience possible and he never takes us for granted, even though we had already paid in full. Talking to others on safari where we stayed, we realized too that we were indeed experiencing a safari well above par. This was without a doubt our most expensive holiday even before a thousand dollars in tips alone (yes, we've even been to Norway) but it was worth every penny we spent.

Excellent
The trip and program of my journey in Kenya was one of my best !
The weather was not good when I arrived and Seven By Far changed the order to make sure I could benefit of the best conditions for my safari.
The visits , the driver and guide were beyond my expectation. I took a private tour with 3 participants and have enjoyed every day.
The drive was sometime a bit long, but the reward was there when we arrived at destination.
The choice of lodges, the communication on changes when we had to adapt the program, the safari itself is an extraordinary experience that I recommend with this Tour Operator.
Great quality of lodge and food.
Lacking words to express my satisfaction but I was able to take many pictures to remember back home

Really great and exceptional experience
My wife and I were recommended by the Serena Mara hotel to book our 3 day safari at the Masai Mara with the Bigfoot Adventures. Since, it was our honeymoon trip, we wanted everything perfect, including the car, the guide, trips, minute details etc. We were absolutely delighted with every single thing we received.
Overall experience: We really enjoyed the entire experience. Maydaysay really made it very good for us. I am pretty sure, if we come to Kenya again, we are going to call them up again. Sam and Mary were the people whom we contacted for booking our tour. They were very humble and courteous and they really helped us make our journey memorable.

amazing experience
My husband and I have just returned from the 5 day Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha tour. This really was an incredible experience for us from start to finish.
We were picked up and dropped off directly from where we were staying in Nairobi. Accomodation was as described. I felt comfortable and safe wherever we stayed.
We managed to see lots of animals and our tour guide Ben really went above and beyond to make sure we were at the best spots to see the animals.
We really have no complaints and would recommend Segein Adventure Safari to anyone interested in exploring this part of Kenya.
Thank you so much to the staff that supported us throughout our trip. Debby and George,- you are brilliant!
