Professional staff, friendly and very accommodating.
We had booked our Masai Mara 3days Safari with Leisure Escapes Safaris for travel in July 2020 and had already paid by February 2020. However, due to COVID 19 we were not able to take this trip at that particular time and we had to cancel or postpone our Safari. We engaged the tour company and they came in handy. After discussions we agreed to postpone it and travel in a years’ time. I can attest that Leisure Escapes Safaris was very understanding and they did not charge us any extra. They engaged the lodge we had booked for our accommodation and they also agreed to hold our booking till the following year. Come 2021, we settled on the dates as wanted to travel during wildebeest migration. We had the best experience ever! I would like to personally recommend Leisure Escapes Safaris for they are very accommodating and handle issues with utmost professionalism. They handled our situation with optimum care and they also gave us a Safari like no other. Great driver guide with a 4x4 tour Land Cruiser, we had unlimited game drives and the guide (James) was able to know where to find the animals. We also had a chance to witness the wildebeest river crossing though only few crossed and others refused to cross the river

Amazing lifetime experience with the best tour operator
My husband and I chose to do a private Safari in Africa for our honeymoon. The first question was "where in Africa?" We wanted to combine an adventurous experience with some relaxing days at the beach. Tanzania had it all! The country is not only known for having one of the best places to experience safari but also beautiful beaches on its island, Zanzibar.
Ok, we have the country, and now, which company? Truth to be told, we didn’t know anyone who could recommend a safari company so we had to search on the internet. We found African Big Cats (ABC), read some reviews, and took the risk.
From the very beginning, the people working at ABC were very open to all of our questions and eager to make us feel in good hands. We trusted our trip completely on them and, my friend, they know what they are doing. Everything was very well organized and if there was ever an issue, ABC resolved it immediately. Thank you so much btw!! We had a huge inconvenient at the beginning of the trip and they worked hardly to help us even though it wasn’t their responsibility.
The lodges were AMAZING, luxurious indeed, and, believe it or not, in the middle of the savannah - you could hear the lions walking around during the night. The people SO friendly, polite, and hardworking. We were amazed about the dedication for everyone but specially our guide, Obed. Obed was patient, kind, and knowledgeable as he guided us through the national parks. The tour was in English but later we found out that Obed speaks Spanish, French and Swahili. We spent 6 days with him and at the end be unavoidable became friends.
I can't recommend this company - and specially Obed - enough! Once in a life experience. There are no invented words yet to describe it.
THANK YOU!

Excellent Tour! Would highly recommend!
We were picked up from our Airbnb and taken to the safari location. Once at the park, we were greeted by our driver/guide, Ben. From the moment we started until we arrived back, he was amazing. His knowledge of the animals was superb. We saw three of the big five, and I think I can speak for everyone on the tour that we were sad when it ended. I would definitely do it again!

Best Tours and Costumer Services by Sekanka.
We had a great experience with Sekanka. Thalo and his team were extremely professional and had great knowledge of the Chobe region. They were always on-time and had great communication when we were on the road. Our daughter loved the experience and had many wonderful memories. I highly recommend Sekanka as a top safari company not only for the experience, but for their professionalism and custumer service.

A lifetime African Experience
Me and my sister planned to go for a trip to see the gorillas, visit the Murchison falls and also see tree climbing lions. We did a search on internet and zeroed it down to Primate safaris. The whole team was really helpful especially Reagan we got in touch with and exchanged emails he was really informative, friendly and flexible. Andrew our guide was really friendly and patient with us when we wanted to spend more time during the game drives. We really enjoyed the trip and would recommend the company again.

Shengena Adventure places your interest, curiosity, and desires at the center of planning.
Shengena Adventure stands out as a safari provider even before the safari begins. Their team was in constant communication with us during planning, and even had a briefing session at our hotel the day before we were set to depart, outlining our agenda, answering questions, etc.
The safari itself was a breathtaking experience, and the program really felt perfectly tailored to our desires. From scheduling, to locations, to lunches, everything was considered according to our preferences. Our guide, Godwin, was also always on the lookout for the animals we were most interested in seeing. And he was really great at spotting them, too!
Overall, the safari was one of the best travel experiences I've had so far in my life. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Shengena to anyone looking for an adventure in Tanzania :)

Great 3 day safari
We had a very good trip and managed to see more or less everything we could have hoped for (Big 5+), thanks mostly to our guide Joshua. Everything went quite smoothly, despite the Nairobi morning traffic delaying our pick up.
It was three long days in the vehicle on some pretty bumpy roads so quite tiring but also very rewarding. A shorter trip (2 days) would have been too short and a longer trip probably wouldn’t have offered much more as we had a long time in the park.
The accommodation was more than adequate - a fairly basic camp but with comfortable beds and a private bathroom in the tent. Food was simple buffets but tasty and sufficient.
We went for the Landcruiser option rather than the cheaper minivan which was definitely worthwhile as there were some muddy places that I think the van would have struggled to navigate, and there was a little more space in the vehicle.
