Fantastic experience
I was so pleased with all aspects of my trip. Ephraim was so knowledgeable of the animals we saw. I am a nervous traveller , but he made me feel so at ease I soon forgot my fears. He is a safe driver and has a great sense of humour. I will definitely be going back soon. I was very pleased with the cost of this trip. Well worth every penny.

Amazing experience with personalized service
We started looking for a private safari of about 10 days in Tanzania and 4 to 5 days relaxing in Zanzibar. As this was not our first safari, we contacted several tour operators (TO) with a sample itinerary we found on the internet.
While most of the TO were only interested in our budget or responded with a price for the exact sample itinerary, Jerry Tanzania Tours was the only one who requested to talk to us in person to suggest changes and discuss options.
Over a time period of about 2 weeks we talked multiple times via WhatsApp to Jeremiah Kimambo of Jerry Tanzania Tours and developed an itinerary for our dream safari. Only then we discussed price. Even after we agreed on a price we made additional changes without problems.
The first question Shirima, our guide asked us, at what time we wanted to be back at the lodge, at 4 PM to take advantage of happy hour or stretch the game drives as long as possible, we answered, we are here for the nature not for the swimming pool. This set the tone for the best safari we could have dreamed off, including amazing viewing of the big migration of the wildebeest.
Shirima turned out to be a fantastic safari guide, he was able to explain particularities of all the birds and animals we encountered, obviously this included the big five, and answered all our questions with a smile.
Jeremiah of Jerry Tanzania Tours organized a flawless safari vacation. The dedication and knowledge of Shirima our guide, made this an unforgettable experience.
We do recommend a few days of relaxation after a hectic safari, Zanzibar is fantastic.
If we come back to Tanzania we definitely will again use the services of Jerry Tanzania Tours, and we will insist to have Shirima as our guide.

Fantastic and very professional!
We had a fantastic experience with Great Escape trails and we would definitely recommend them. They were super organised and professional and they helped us by giving us advice for all our trip and not only for the safari. We went on a 4 day safari and our guide Noel made everything he could to keep us happy and see as many animals as possible (imagine we saw 32 lions in 4 days). We also saw the big 5 and animals we didn’t even expect we would see, we visited a school in a village and had the chance to share some gifts and also a Masai village where we found out their history and culture. Every day was special and the memories will stay with us for a lifetime. Thank you for everything Thom and Noel!

Excellent safari with great drivers
We stayed at 3 great camps- each very different that the company administrator helped us chose. We were a big party of 10, and used 2 jeeps. Our driver, Bashir was superb. He went at just the right pace, was unfailingly good humoured and knew when to stop for pictures and what we were interested in. He altered the schedule as we needed and travelled with us all the way from Nairobi to the beach south of Mombasa. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

5 day private Safari
We just finished a 5 day private Safari. Planning with Hillary was seamless and we really appreciated his recommendation to spend 2 nights in the Serengeti instead of 1. We loved the Ang’ata camps in the Serengeti and Ngorongo. Max our driver was organized and with such long days and so much to see he always had us on schedule. We had a great time with Max, saw the big 5 and so much more…... thanks for the memories!

Brilliant tour of the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru National Park
I booked my Kenyan safari tour through Lenchada Safaris and it has been a once in a lifetime memorable experience. The rare and immense beauty of the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru National park was incredible. The animal sightings are very special. Really, the whole tour from the safaris, the accomodation and food right through to our amazing tour guide Dickson (Make sure you get Dickson he is so insightful on the nature, wildlife and very helpful in every department to cover all your needs whilst on tour) I would highly recommend booking a Kenyan Safari with Lenchada Safaris. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

THE BEST YET!
Having undertaken several safaris in various locations in Africa, I have to say none has bettered this one. Everything - accommodation, food etc - was superb & excellent value for money.
Our Tour Guide, Ephraim, was awesome. His knowledge of, & respect for, all the wildlife we encountered was superb. This is not just "his job"; it's clearly a labour of love. He genuinely cares about all the many animals we were blessed to see. We were treated with care and respect and we felt entirely comfortable & safe. A trip of a lifetime, we will be returning as soon as we can. Highly Recommended - 10/10!

THE BEST TOUR COMPANY & THE BEST GUIDE WE LOVE FREKA!!!
My boyfriend has wanted to do a Gorilla treck for many years but I have always been concerned about safety and also the price of the tour. I wanted to book something memorable for his 30th birthday and so I reached out to a few providers to find out a little bit more information. From the very beginning Freka stood out. Emily in the office was amazing at helping me put my dream route together and advising me on things that I shouldn’t miss! The communication was excellent and Emily really helped me to feel at ease throughout the whole process. We booked the 4 day itinary that included the trip to the gorillas as well as a chimp treck and the kwaszi Chanel. The price of the trip was absolutely incredibly I was worried that maybe we may loose value in the lodges but everything felt very high end.
When we arrived we met our tour guide Gerarld. We have travelled to over 50 countries as a couple and we have to say that our experience with Gerald as a guide was really one of the best! He m my by ade the experience so special and always went above and beyond to make sure we were happy! Gerald understood the things we were interested in and took us to activities that were not included in our itinerary such as the trip to the equator. These things went on to be some of the high lights of the trip and wouldn’t have been possible without Gerald. Gerald also ensured we got a great group for the gorilla treck that matched our fitness levels as a result our gorilla experience was so much better than we could have ever imagined! If you can request Gerald as a tour guide I would definitely recommend you do so! We have been on safari previously and Tanzania and didn’t have a great experience with our tour guide so it’s very important to get a guide you are happy with! Uganda as a country felt very safe and the people were so friendly and passionate about making your Uganda experience an amazing one.
So to sumarise if you are looking to book a safari in Uganda / Rwanda or Tanzania Freka is the company you should book with and hopefully you are lucky to have Gerald as your guide!

Excellent!
Everything was so easy to organise and once we got out to Kenya and met our guide James he looked after everything for us the whole time. He was very experienced and knew exactly where to be to get the best sights of the animals! We were so lucky to be able to see the big five and I’d definitely recommend Kameraz of Afrika to anyone I know who wanted to go on safari and have the best chance of seeing the big five! James was also very caring, as I have a bad back, he took this in to consideration and was always checking to see if I was comfortable and let us have stops throughout travelling from place to place to have a stretch.
