Lovely bush setting, friendly and willing service
We chose this package because it offered a less commercialised experience than the famous game reserves further south and west. The lodge itself and our unit was charming and beautifully located overlooking the Rufigi River. The lodge staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. The chefs did wonders in the very limited space and the restricted access to ingredients at their disposal. Nixon, the lodge manager, went out of his way to give us as good an experience as possible. We had two game drives, two boat safaris, a bush walk and a village walk, and learned something from each of them. We very much enjoyed the experience of living in the bush and felt our original hopes had been fulfilled. After a 15 minute drive to the entrance to the reserve, we may have been unlucky in visiting immediately after heavy rains. The reserve was green and lush with lots of thick cover. As a result we saw fewer animals than we had expected. It is apparently the largest reserve in Tanzania, and it may be that there is just too much space for the animals to disappear into. For instance, there are allegedly 6000 elephants in the reserve but we did not see one. However, we came away with a good feeling about the product Kinga Lodge was offering and would encourage anyone to do the same.

Benson was really so knowledgeable with his skills and abilities,he gave us a deep explanationties
In terms of knowledge and experience, Benson was our best guide. Overall, an unforgettable safari adventure! On many levels, the trip exceeded my expectations.
The accommodations in which we stayed were excellent. It was our first trip to Africa, and everything went smoothly. We had a great time. The guide was fantastic in every aspect of our vacation. He is extremely knowledgeable and was an excellent tour guide. The safari you go on with Kubwa Five is one you won't soon forget.-

Flexible, reasonably priced & reliable
From the first time I contacted Daniel about my requirements he was very flexible and he did his best to meet my requirements even I've customized a lot in the schedule, and during the trip, all of our requirements were precisely followed with ZERO hassle.
The trip was reasonably priced compared to many other Safari companies and the accommodations were very good.
Our tour guide was Tony, he is a very likable and friendly person, he did his best to give us the best view of all animals and we managed to see the big 5 indeed as well as many other animals. However, the only negative point was that Tony didn't initiate by explaining stuff about animals to us and we had to keep asking him whenever we needed to learn more about something.
Overall I'm very satisfied with the trip and would totally recommend booking with Meektrails Safaris

Ngoro ngoro is wonderfull
We had the most amazing trip with Superb Tanzania Safaris with our incredible guide Stephan. We would highly recommend Stephan as a guide - ask for him when you book! He was so knowledgeable about all of the parks and the animals and was so eager to learn more as he went, answering any questions we had. His attention to detail and great service on the whole Safari, but especially when serving food was exceptional. We were especially lucky and saw 8 leopards on an 8-day safari which was so special and he even spotted some cheetah and serval for us (he knew we really wanted to see cats). He was also a very safe driver and was so fun to chat to and laugh with. We thought the food was great (lots of vegetarian options) and loved all the accomodation, especially Luxury Escarpment Lodge and Embalakari Camp. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater were especially amazing, lifetime memories made.

Thank you Delfin Tours for this wonderful safari.

Seven by Far are Sincere and Proactive
We chose Seven by Far Travel because they were proactive when we first contacted them. They always replied to our emails very soon with their suggestions on the itineraries. The price for the tour was also reasonable.
For the trips in Kenya, We have been taken good care of by Seven by Far Travel. We also learnt a lot from the Game Drives in the National Reserves / Parks.
The only thing which needs to be improved is the arrangements on the East Coast but we have already talked to them and I am sure this would be fixed once they have new tours over there.
In general, they are sincere, caring. My family and I enjoyed our time in Kenya.

Very excellent, reliable, super Customer friendly Tour operator with excellent guides
We could have not imagined a better Tour Operator than spirit of Kenya. Andre was an excellent help in advance when we planned the Route for our Safari. The Email communication, booking was all super easy and we always had the feeling that andre wanted Just the best for us! Nestor was our guide during the safari and we can highly recommend him!! He was simply the best. He shared his knowledge abt the animals/ his culture with us and He always knew/anticipated correctly what the animals are doing next! So we always had a little advantage over the other cars! All in all, it was an amazing time with Nestor as each day there was at least one Wow-moment. Spirit of kenya is a very reliable Tour Operator and we can only highly recommend it!
PS. Always book the Jeep!
