Good cooperation and all agreements were valid during safari
We booked a four-day safari through Rocktrek Safaris and we were a total of 6 adult travelers. All the agreements we had previously spoken through e-mail with Silas were in force and that was a pleasant experience. We didn't have to worry about anything during the safari because everything was organized and prepared.
We started our 4-day trip from Nairobi Airport and first day drove to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. At the airport we met our guide-driver Lainas. Lainas was a very professional, pleasant and super good driver. We felt safe with him. At the safari Lainas gave a maximum of himself, that we can see the maximum number of animals and birds. Since Kenyan roads are very extreme and the traffic is crazy, we can honestly say that Lainas was a real pro, coping with very dangerous and difficult situations - incl. offroad, national parks and "high"ways. For two days we visited Masai Mara National Park and saw a lot of birds, animals and great Kenyan nature. We also saw all the big five - Lion, Leopard, Rhino, Elephant and Buffalo. Since the cars drive off-road at some point on the safari, this is a topic that the service providers should think through in order to disturb the wild animals less.
Bottle water must be guaranteed throughout the trip, at least 1.5 liters of water per person per day, because the air is very dusty and the weather is very hot. Unfortunately, on the third day of the safari (the longest and hardest day of safari), there was no drinking water in the car. There was only 0.5 l water from the hotel with a picnic lunch.
Our safari ended on the fourth day and we asked us to be taken to the Nairobi train station and Rocktrek Safaris also helped us buy train tickets. We were very pleased with organizing safari and our trip, we recommend Rockkrek Safari to others.

They understand quality
The agency rep, Noel, could accommodate our plan and recommend the right type of safari that fit to what we were looking for. Being a solo traveler, it was important for me to join a group trip to meet the other travelers and enjoyed our adventures together, plus for cost efficiency as well. This company understood on certain quality of the accommodation that I expected and they were all wonderful especially the ‘glamping’ inside tbe Serengeti National Park. Our group was lucky enough to be able to spot the Big 5 within 4 days and I appreciated the quick feedback for any inquiries or feedback that I had during the planning stage till the end of my trip.

Professional knowledgeable guide, great food, good value.
Serengeti Wakanda was quick responding from our 1st contact many weeks in advance. Clearly the owner/operator is client focused and anticipated many queries before we asked them.
Our guide was a skilled communicator, and a strong capable driver, but most importantly extremely knowledgeable about the parks - their history and topography - and the flora and fauna. His knowledge of the animals - their seasonal behaviours, and symbiotic relationships between species - was impressive. And key to our whole experience, he knew where to find them. Apparently we were very lucky to see all we saw, but I am convinced a lot of that luck was related to our guide. On the rare occasion that we stumped him with a question (or overwhelmed him with too many), he had reference books on board to look up anything.
The cook / guide assistant blew us away with his work ethic and culinary skill. In theory, we were camping. But we were eating 3 high-end restaurant meals a day. Really delicious.
All in all, Serengeti Wakanda delivered an experience we will never forget.

Impressive ! Kudos to Kerry from Indigo Safari !
We had our family trip to South Africa in Jan 2023 which was so impeccably planned by Kerry Watt with months of discussion and changes to the very close of the trip. Kerry was very professional in managing our expectation and accommodating to heaps of changes that we made. Kerry, we love your patience and cheerfulness in doing all of these changes with a big smile....so amazing!
The whole trip was well designed with care and consideration for the young and the old for the excitement and the relaxation to enjoy the journey. We enjoyed the beautiful Hermanus beach hike and fabulous scenery (wish we had taken Kerry's advice to stay extra day to enjoy more) and the awesome safari experience at the fabulous Kapama Game Reserve Resort and we were so pampered by the service team as well that we did not want to leave the resort so soon! Not forgetting...the beautiful Cape Town, winelands tours, Graskop tours & etc. All in all, we had a fantastic time in South Africa...kudos to Kerry for orchestrating this whole trip so thoughtfully !
I had already recommended my friends back in Asia to make a trip to South Africa and insisted that they should sign up with Indigo Safaris!!

Excellent service!!
I found Shanjoy Tours online when looking to organize a safari for some friends after my wedding. We were a big group (18) with people from overseas and was put in touch with Patrick. I would rate everything 10/10!! Since I was planning my wedding I did not have a lot of time, Patrick organized everyone and everything excellently. When it came time for the trip, it could not have gone more smoothly. Flights, hotels, game drives, knowledge of the park and animals everything was fantastic. We had a great time and the Shanjoy team took care of everything always with a smile on their face. Would highly recommend Shanjoy and in particular Patrick, he is the best! Asante sana we had the most memorable trip!!

Professional, competent, trustworthy
Your money will definitely be spent well with lenchada safaris, they are professionals and handled the entire tour with in time perfected skills, our driver drove PERFECTLY! in a country where it is not easy at all not to make an accident. We had a lot of fun with our driver and he managed to always be in the right place at the right time allowing us to take beautiful pictures and live wonderful moments.

Great communication and very informative will never forget this experience.Julius was amazing!
We were met my Julius at our hotel who was very friendly and gave great information about the area on our way to the 1st stop on our safari. The first stop (Ngutuni Lodge) was incredible, our room was right by the watering hole so we had a great view of the elephants, zebra etc. Julius was great at helping us find the animals while on the road and was happy to answer our many questions! :) the 2nd stop was even better! (Saltlick Lodge) and again our room was facing the watering hole and the Lodge itself had a tunnel to give you a close up of all the animals. The views were out of this world!
It's truly an experience we will never forget and it was made even better by Juliusand the rest of the team and I would be happy to book with them again in future! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
