Unique experience
My boyfriend and I had seen animals only at the zoo before going to the safari. We came back about a week ago and our heats are still there in that magnificent place. Thank you, Gianluca for all the assistance and guidance. We had an amazing experience there! great food, very organized, wonderful and comfortable lodges, and tents, excellent food, excellent guides and that wonderful land and nature which is unforgettable to us and to anyone who visits! Thank you Safari Avventura!

good animal viewing but roads and general environment poor
Wildlife - good viewing but most only visible on the roads, where they are almost "tame"
Guide was great. Indeed all Kenyans were nice to us.
Roads in the parks terrible limiting getting around and detracting from the pleasure of being there. A very rough ride!
Roads to get around also very crowded with terrible traffic jams, mainly due to large trucks.
Due to the inability to cross into Tanzania there were long drives to and from the parks, via Nairobi
Accommodations variable
Nairobi is a polluted crowded city with terrible traffic jams and no redeeming features
in terms of souvenirs, poor quality and very expensive with most not in ebony (although sold as ebony)

Outstanding Service!
The service provided by Sandra was amazing. Her help with planning our trip and making sure we found the right location for our honeymoon was outstanding. We could not have been happier with her recommendations of The Residence in Johannesburg and Lush Lodge, they were the perfect place for our honeymoon. Our holiday was stress free because of Sandra she made sure all transfers had us where we needed to be and her level of communication was above our expectations. Could not recommend Sandra and Traipsing Africa more.

Gorilla Trek and Queen Elizabeth Park Safari
My wife and I booked our Gorilla Trek and Queen Elizabeth Park Safari with Rumara in February 2020. The driver Onesmus and Charity from the office met us in Entebbe and took us to Bwindi National Park. We were treated so well that I felt like a life long friend. The driver/guide was most knowledgeable in regards to all animal life.
The accomodation was excellent at 3 locations. We managed to view a family of 14 Mountain Gorillas at Bwindi. This was the most unbelievable experience we have ever had. We then stayed a night at Lake Bunyonyi and enjoyed beautiful scenery and a relaxing atmosphere. Our last visit was to Queen Elizabeth National Park where we had spectacular close up views of herds of Elephants and also saw the tree climbing lions. These are very rare and was another highlight moment.
We were also treated to the Kazinga channel boat ride where we viewed Buffalo, Hippos, Elephants and many bird types. Nile crocodiles were also seen on the bank.
I would definitely book again with this company. We couldn't have been treated better or had more informative guides. Many thanks to Charity and Onesmus.

Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli - 6 day/5 night safari
We went on this safari and it was really great. We saw 4 of the big 5 (no leopard) and many more animals. Guide and driver Jackson was really good and he got us as close to the animals as possible. He was very well acquainted with the area and knew all whereabouts blindfolded.
Masai Mara was the best so if you have less days going there is enough. Honestly there’s a lot of driving to get from one park to another so if you really get annoyed in a car, 3 days in Masai Mara is enough. BUT you see Rhinos only in Nakuru. Amboseli was nice too but we just saw more elephants and giraffes and gazelles which we had already seen before. Masai village was really interesting too. If you go, take some gifts for the kids....the smile on their face is worth it. I didn't know so I just gave them my lunch but they were so happy sharing it. Despite its cons I still loved this safari.

Christmas Vacation
Me and my husband did a 5 days safari from Arusha to Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro Crater for Christmas and it was incredible. We grew to like Kagabo Adventure Safaris from the detailed timely responses by Evath and we were very comfortable by the time we arrived in Tanzania. We enjoyed our safari with our guide Daniel who did an awesome job of driving and leading the vacation. Game drives were fantastic seeing many animals and even getting close-up views of lions, elephants, cheetahs, zebras, wildebeest, water-buck and even a rhino. Accommodations were nice but the camp in Serengeti was really exceptional, it is built right in the middle of the jungle and wild animals roamed very close to the camp at night.
We are grateful and fully recommend this company for a very wonderful time

Fantastic and top proff.
Our Safari was 4 days and 3 nights. Starting in Mombasa and ending in Nairobi.
It was excellent. Fantastic driver/guide. 4x4 Landcruiser was perfect with wifi, horsepower - State of the art.
Our driver, Dominic, got us the best Wild life experiences and made sure that security allways was in top. He really was proff and his knowledge about all the animals and culture made this trip perfect. The Accomodations were high class and foods great. We really recommend Natural World Safaris.

As for the game drives, one has to see them to believe them
We planned our sort of "spur of the moment" trip to Kenya with only a month before travel. After combing through several agencies and sending out emails, Vincent caught our eye. They were quick to answer & thorough in what they offered/suggested. Once in Kenya, they were by our sides from the moment we landed in Nairobi to when we were dropped off in Emali to take the train to Mombasa. We spent 9 days on safari starting in the Mara & ending in Amboseli. It was incredible. We enjoyed the time spent with Maasai people as much as we did on game drives. I highly recommend staying in "guest hut." We so enjoyed our evening with the villagers laughing and eating ugali with goat! As for the game drives, one has to see them to believe them. The car was perfect, our guides Moses & Solomon were incredibly thoughtful & knowledgeable - pointing out special sites & animals, stopping & waiting for photos. We also loved learning the local languages. It was perfect. I felt incredibly spoiled to be so thoughtfully taken care of during our time there! We would recommend this company to our family and friends for sure. There is no way other companies could offer such a personal experience as Sino Africa Safari. We will be back for more fun one day!

Fantastic adventure in Tanzania
Last July we had a fantastic six days safary with Safari Avventura. Everything was perfect since our first contacts with the staff. Before leaving they answered all our questions and doubts. Our guide was very nice and patient and we could see and photographe all the animals we expected to see. Big five included. Perfect also the choice of the lodges and the safari camps.Thank you Safari Avventura!
