Excellent personalized service and eye for detail
Communication with Kichao's was easy and quick. They responded swiftly to my questions. They suggested to meet at my hotel two days before the safari to talk through all the details. Safari car was convenient. Driver/guide was very experienced. Lunch was perfect. I knew beforehand that this was not the good season to see any large herds of zebra or wildebeast (we didn't see any). But we did see a.o. many large groups of elephants and 2 packs of lionesses. And the landscape was stunning. Very convenient drop-off at airport afterwards. Highly recommended!

A great adventure, well run
Spend the day biking through a national park, with a reliable and friendly guide and driver to follow. The experience was unique, as we saw some giraffe and passed local Maasai herding their animals. It was safe too, we had plenty of water and a driver following us incase something came up. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a travel fitness adventure.

Great travel and great attentive service.
I used Genesis of Adventure's tour services when traveling to the remote northern part of Kenya. The company made all of the travel arrangements to visit the western side of Lake Turkana. There are very few tour companies that offer services to this area and I was glad to have found Genesis. Jane was very responsive and answered all of my many questions in great detail. When Jane was not available Jonathan himself stayed in contact with me. Everything was nicely organized from flights to Lodwar to private transport around Lake Turkana and accommodation as well as drive to Lokichogio (even more remote). Jonathan even made some last minute changes to my itinerary as to my request; I appreciated his great flexibility. He was in contact with me on a regular basis throughout the entire trip. I recommend Genesis of Adventure and hope to be back.

Great operator - highly recommended!!
We had a great time seeing the gorillas at the Bwindi impenetrable forest. We made a late decision to go to Uganda to do the gorilla hike off the back of a business trip to Malawi. Edris at Uzuri was very helpful in making all of the necessary arrangements for us and the trip went without a hitch. He was always available and very responsive to speak to or message via whats app. The accommodation he arranged for us was perfect for our purposes and set us up well for our short stay in Uganda. He obtained our gorilla permits with little notice and also arranged our internal flight. We arrived late into Entebbe and overnighted at the Karabu Lodge which was just perfect. Transfers both ways were provided by the lodge (as was a packed lunch) and we flew out the next morning to Kihihi. En route, the Aerolink flight flew low over the Queen Elizabeth National Park where we observed literally hundreds of hippos as well as elephants and wildebeest sunning themselves by the river. We met Vincent, our local guide, at Kihihi airstrip. He’s a great guy with a great sense of humour. We did the local community village walking tour at Ruhija before spending the night at the Bakiga lodge. Next morning at 8am, we assembled at the meeting point at the Bwindi forest for our briefing before setting off for what turned out to be a 2 hour 4.5km hike through the forest. Trekkers preceding us had located the gorilla family we were rendezvousing with and we spent a magical hour observing them from very close up… so close that one young gorilla playfully shoulder-charged one of our group who was kneeling down to take some photos.
Although I’m pretty unfit and we were at 6500’ altitude, the hike back was not too bad. It was certainly worth the effort to see the gorillas in their natural habitat. Vincent then drove us to the Birsdnest Lodge at Lake Bunyara which is another magical spot. We could have spent another day there had we had more time. Next morning we set off early for the 7 hour drive back to Entebbe. We chose to drive so we could see more of the wonderful scenery in that part of the country. It was a wise choice .. with the added bonus of crossing the equator and checking out whether water really does flow anti clockwise or clockwise…. What do you think

An experience of a lifetime
My husband and I went on a five day safari and have nothing, but incredible memories. This truly was an experience of a lifetime. We had James as our driver and he was amazing. Aside from his knowledge, his true love and passion for his country and the animals was evident. While he ensured we saw "the big five", he did so in a way that kept the animals best interests in mind. We never swarmed the animals or gave chase. As much as possible he gave us the experience to observe the animals as they are with us going undetected. We highly recommend Enchanting Tanzania Safaris and hope to join them again in the future!

Wonderful
Our family of 5 recently did the 6 day safari with Becon safari. The
communication and booking through Robert was excellent and prompt. We were
picked up in Nairobi, went to Ambosili, Massi Mara and Lake Nakuru. The
accommodation and meals were very good.
Our guide was an excellent driver, polite, friendly enough, found and
showed the big 5, and many other wild animals, which in itself was
fantastic! He also spoke to the front desk at one of the lodges and
promptly got us a room when ours wasn't ready at check in, which was very
much appreciated after a long day of travel.
Beacon Safari was easy to book, took care of all the details, and a good company to go through if thinking of going to Kenya.

It was amazing!
Everything worked like clockwork with drivers/transfers! The lodging & food were very good and amazing wildlife viewings/spottings (even an elusive leopard) and gorgeous Kruger Pk vistas.

A truly enjoyable experience with a great guide.
Communications before and after the trip were very good. Everything went according to plan and exceeded our expectations, nothing was to much trouble for Raja or Nico our guide.
