Highly Recommend BestDay Safaris!
I just finished a 6 day Safari with BestDay Safari & highly recommend them! I found them thru recommendations on a Facebook travel group. They are a company local to Arusha so no third party fees tagged on top & was happy to know my money went to locals. From the initial contact, Peter was informative & patient with all our questions. When Covid hit, he had no issue pushing back our travel plans. Our tour guide Morrow was extremely knowledgeable about the animals & their behaviours, he would indicate that something will happen next & it did! The accommodations are up to western standards (clean, comfortable beds, safe, AC, ensuite washroom, etc). We especially enjoyed staying at Eileen’s Trees & the Tukaone Tented Camp! What a surreal experience to have lions & elephants pass by the tents at night. BestDay Safaris make things easy by including airport pick up and drop off, and all meals. We saw the Big Five and many more animals, more than we dreamt of! If you are strapped for time, skip Lake Manyara but the Serengeti & Ngoragoro Crater are absolute must sees! Trip of a lifetime thanks to BestDay Safaris!! Highly recommend.

Customer focused, follow up before and after trip and I felt very safe as a solo traveller.
I was booked on a last minute business trip to Johannesburg, when I was confirmed I looked at what I could do whilst there and this tour came up. Everything about booking through this operator was seamless from booking to pick up, tour and drop off. Every person I interacted with was extremely helpful and pleasant, it made me feel safe and secure about the tour.

Our guide Santiely was amazing and we saw all the big 5 multiple times. beyond all expectations.
We saw an amazing range of animals from baby elephants to the wilder beast migration crossing water (3 times) and killings of prey by lions. Beyond all hopes of a Safari and our guide Santiely was so patient helping us to see all the animals and birds that we wanted while amusing us on the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better drive. Our highlights were the migration crossing of the wilder beast that were caught and eaten by crocodiles. As well as a pride of lion cubs under a tree and a group of male lions who sat next to our vehicle which was perfectly placed by our Easy Travel guide driver Santiely. We also managed to see a heard of elephants drinking and showering in a watering hole. Santiely was amazing and helped to take our trip to the next level. would recommend Easy Travel for everyone. Fantastic time!

One of the most friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable men I’ve ever met
Had an absolutely amazing few days guided by our fantastic driver Santiely. Never been on safari before but find it impossible to fathom ever going on a better one in future. Saw literally every animal there was to see and at incredibly close range, laughing all the way. Unforgettable.

Absolutely fantastic and exceeded all expectations
Fabulous customer service from first contact through to booking through Voice, all the way through our Safari experience itself with Santiely of Easy Travel. Tortillas camps were outstanding highlights with a very warm sense of hospitality and joyful celebration of song and dance and life. Hakuna Matata for a wonderful week.

Top Notch Safari Experience!
Samuel showed great diligence and integrity honoring a safari reservation made in 2020.
Our driver Simon was wonderful, hard-working and diligent. Got us to the best animal sightings in three parks.
Safari hotels in Amboseli, Nakuru and Masaii Mara were excellent
Definitely recommend DeepForest!

Fantastic trip to Lake Mburo
We went on a four-day trip with Ngoni from Kigali to Lake Mburo and the equator. Communication with Sedrick was quick and very interactive. We had a fantastic trip. Our driver/guide Twaha was great and really listened to our requests. Twaha made sure that we got to see and do everything we wanted.
We can highly recommend the cycling safari in Lake Mburo as well as Mihingo Lodge where we had a great stay!

Amazing! Extremely responsive & professional! Highly recommend!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Morning Star! Dennis, our Tour Consultant, organized every detail of our 11-day Safari/Beach Tour. He was so delightful to work with! Dennis is very responsive (I often wondered if he slept - he responded to emails all day/night), and alleviated all my concerns immediately. The accommodations he selected were beyond beautiful. And the activities he suggested were perfect for our 2 families. He thought of everything, and every detail was beautiful presented in itinerary.
Dennis arranged all the details of our itinerary - then Alex and David, our Tour Guides, executed the plan perfectly. From the moment they all greeted us at the airport - I knew we were in good hands! We were busy, on the move most of the trip, but Alex and David kept us on schedule and handled every aspect (not an easy task with 10 adults/teenagers). We went to 5 National Parks, saw tons of animals, went on a Hot Air Balloon, a boat ride thru Hippos, a bike ride thru Hells Gate, many game drives, visited a village and a school, snorkeled in the Indian Ocean, rode Camels on the beach and stayed at breathtaking accommodations - and everything went so smoothly! We just sat back and enjoyed the journey while Alex and David managed everything.
The Safari Jeeps are new, and in great condition - we even had a mini-fridge and wi-fi in the Jeep!
Overall, the hospitality of Kenya is amazing! At every accommodation we were greeted warmly and completely pampered, they truly strive to make your stay perfect!
Thank you Dennis, Alex & David, and the entire Morning Star Tours team for making our Kenya trip so memorable! I know this was an experience we will never forget! I am so grateful!
