Communicative, reliable and very friendly
A great service from start to finish. Fantastic knowledge of the breadth of accommodation and experiences available means a really well tailored trip. Flexible and communicative throughout - would highly recommend Mike and the team.

Memorable First African Safari with Wildlife Safaris
Brought my family on our first African Safari @ Kruger National Park in December 2023.
We were most fortunate to have “Hoppy” as our guide - passionate about African wildlife, knowledgeable about the ecology of Kruger National Park, Hoppy was most happy to share his knowledge.
With Skukuza as our base camp, we explored Kruger from Hoppy’s eyes - saw more animals than we thought possible, and heard many more interesting stories. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and wished that we could have stayed an extra day.
We stayed at Skukuza Rest Camp Chalets. There were other newer, more expensive lodges but having travelled a long way from Asia, we preferred these chalets as they offered us an authentic African safari experience. Skukuza, we felt, was also more central location wise and being in the nature reserve, facilitated easy access to game drives and animals.
Mealtimes were enjoyable and rich in conversation, as were the morning coffees with Hoppy. For us, mealtimes were interesting too for other reasons - there were breakfast at Skukuza Golf Club aka “Wildest Golf Club in the World” amongst Hyenas and Hippos, Mugg & Bean Lower Sabie amongst African Buffaloes, lunch at Alzu amongst a large collection of reared African wildlife, and dinner at Cattle Baron back in Skukuza after a long day out.
It was a memorable safari.
Best Wishes Hoppy, loved our trip.

Amazing trip with an amazing guide!
We booked basically at the last minute and got several quotes, and chose Lulu Safaris because they were competitive and had great reviews. We are really happy we did as we had an incredible time on our safari. We even decided to do the gorilla experience a second time while we were there and Katto, our most fabulous guide, managed to make all the arrangements - which we were told by many people afterwards that it is VERY difficult to do and it only succeeded because everyone knows and loves Katto!
The entire trip was really wonderful, lodges that were chosen were fantastic, and each activity at or near the lodge was amazing. We didn't see very much of Rwanda, but we did do the golden monkey trekking which is honestly, just wonderful! An absolute must. The gorilla experience obviously is plain gob smackingly incredible. We spent most the 9 days in Uganda, and what a beautiful, wondrous country it is. We always felt very safe and Katto is very very knowledgeable about everything, including the politics of both countries.
I can't recommend the tour enough. It is not our first trip to Africa, but certainly one of the best. We will never be able to thank Katto enough for the wonders of those 9 days.

Great customer support
Due to conflicting dates, we did not end up going through Indigo Safaris because we tagged along friends who had already organised one. HOWEVER, Kerry offered fantastic support and insights throughout the quoting process and was really kind and understanding when we mentioned we were no longer pursuing the Safari. Thank you very much!

Exceptional service, easy to deal with, would book again!
Our safari was quite complex as we were travelling around Kenya to see several game reserves, but this was no problem for Kevic tours. We toured from Nairobi to Amboseli, to Lake Naivasha, to Masai Mara, to Lake Nakuru and to Ol Pejeta Conservancy before then being taken back to Nairobi on our 8th day. We managed to book in the Chimpanzee sanctuary near Sweetwaters as well as a quick detour visit to Thomson Falls, none of this was any trouble for Bob at Kevic Tours or John our guide. We had good communications from Bob, he advised of the plan, how to obtain our visa for Kenya and the time we would be picked up after our overnight stay in Nairobi. He also provided us with the Whatsapp number for our guide, John so we could communicate easily. John drove us everywhere, and was very adept at navigating the busy Kenyan roads, nothing was too much trouble for him. He stopped at good rest stops for us to use the washrooms as needed, as we were travelling with two children as well. He made sure we were booked in to each camp we were staying in before he left us to get settled. He knew all the game reserves well, where to find the animals at the right time of day, we had lots of fun. He pointed things out whilst we were driving to each reserve, as we did a lot of road driving throughout Kenya, which was interesting and we had some great conversations about Kenya as well. We thoroughly enjoyed each camp we stayed at, and would certainly stay at all of them again. This was pretty much all inclusive, we just paid for drinks as extra and obviously any souveneirs. However all food was provided and this was definitely plentiful and yum! Drinking water was also provided in the land rover each day. Words cannot really express how much we enjoyed the safari, John was just absolutely amazing and he definitely made it a great trip as well as seeing all the animals as well. We would book through Kevic again as their process was nice and easy, and communication with them was easy as well. Bob checked in with us a couple of times to make sure we had been picked up at the airport, and then again the following day from Nairobi, and we met in person on the 3rd day just to make sure all was well. This was definitely a trip to remember!

Unparalleled Adventure with a Masterful Guide!
An unforgettable journey with John Danford, an exceptionally knowledgeable guide. Not only did he expertly lead us through the breathtaking terrain, but he also enhanced our experience with his extensive knowledge of local wildlife and plant life. Adapting seamlessly to our pace, he provided insights into mountaineering and captivated us with tales of his own adventures. His professionalism instilled the confidence to entrust him with a full Kilimanjaro climb. Undoubtedly, a top-tier guide!

Exceptional safari experience with Premier Safaris!
The entire experience was incredible, beginning even before the trip. Cynthia was very responsive and knowledgeable about the itinerary options, and worked to build our perfect visit, including monitoring emergent lodging openings and getting us a previously unavailable reservation at Tortillas camp.
Our guide Sam Peku was great at all times, using vast knowledge and real-time radio communications to provide the best wildlife viewing in Amboseli and Nairobi National Parks - and above all, was a joy to travel with. He demonstrated constant flexibility to create a family friendly trip, made us feel welcome, and also was wonderful to talk to.
We would love to travel to Kenya again, provided it was with Premier. We highly recommend Premier Safaris, especially Sam and Cynthia.

A Memorable Game Experience
It was a great experience working with Maxvel. The guide was exceptionally good at his work and an easy booking. My family and I had the best game drive having seen all animals in our bucket list.

They are experienced, friendly and keep time
I have lived in Kenya for long but l've never travelled to Tourist sites, this is the first time to gain such experience with my family, we left the house on time, we were driven by a responsible driver, who was well informed, friendly and discipline. We arrived in the site on time, at the gate, we were sorted out by the driver and wildlife officers. we spend enough time to see the animals and birds and we had enough time to go round and around

The people of Kenya are very welcoming and the knowledge of the guides makes to trip awe inspiring
We absolutely loved our time in Kenya. We were welcomed from the moment we got there. Our guide Daniel was absolutely amazing and extremely knowledgeable. We saw pretty much every animal you would wish to see on a safari. All the guides in the park work together to make sure that all the tourists get the most out of their safari. One of the best experiences of my life.
