AMAZING JOURNEY-HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Even if it was our first safari experience, we are experienced travelers, that is to say we have traveled a lot in several countries in cooperation with many travel agancies and many guides. However the experience we had with Tazama Holidays was really unique.
We are impressed by their proffessionalism and their competitive offer/quote (make sure that any comparison is made with the exact same hotels).
Antony was very fast and clear on answering our emails but also surprised us by a) giving us as a present a dinner at Carnivore and b) booking for us the best tent possible at Basecamp Mara which both contributed to an unforgettable ending of our journey.
We had 8 days safari (Amboseli-lake Naivasha-lake Nakuru-Masai Mara) with a land cruiser and unlimited safari hours. It was all just perfect!!
Our guide, Jack was, what could we possibly say, unbelievable!! Experienced, willing, patient, smiling, pleasant, interensting, trustworthy and, in general, better than what we could ever expect. He made it possible for us to see all the animals of the places we went, in the best way. Do yourself a favour and ask for Jack. With only 4 days having passed since our return we miss him already.
Thank you guys for everything.

Simply the best. Would highly recommend Go Touch Down for an amazing trip to Africa.
This trip has always been a dream of mine. Booked in 2019 for 2020. Finally made it in 2022. This trip did not disappoint. The accommodations were great. Couldn’t complain about the food. The staff and guides at the lodges, went out of their way to make the experience truly memorable. Safaris were up close and personal to the Big 5 and numerous other wild animals. The second half was spent in and around Cape Town. This too was a remarkable experience. If you’re thinking of going to South Africa, DO IT!

Well organized, on time and with a wonderful guide that made sure we had an experience of a lifetime
Everything went smoothly right from the booking, communication was offered both through mail and WhatsApp and we made an individual plan for us. First day we were picked up promptly. All in all we are more than happy with the tour. We got to see the animals we wanted to see and the guide was very knowledgeable and gave us interesting information throughout. Next time around we will insist on having the same guide again.

Amazing!
It was an exceptional experience in more ways than one. We saw so many animals and the beautiful African landscape. Our Guide, David, knew all the good spots to go to, and knew how to have fun while we were searching the game. David is also an exceptional barista for those afternoon coffees!
The accommodations were fantastic and the Tanzanian people are so friendly and welcoming, we truly felt at home wherever we went.
We highly recommend Lion King Safari!

Amazing Experience
My friend and I arranged a Safari tour with John. He was very available to explain all in detail before our arrival. He was also very kind when we arrived in Arusha, he organised all transfer and the accommodation was very confortable. Regarding the Safari, our guide Goodluck was Amazing, so respectful, so friendly he make our experience very exceptional and the food during the Safari was very good.
Thank you very much John & Goodluck for this very special experience.

Warm, personal service. Flexible and responsive.
We had a great experience with Wanderlust Safaris on a one-day Chobe National Park excursion. Prompt pick up and smooth hand-off to their partners at the Botswana border. Really friendly people as well. We were very satisfied with the service and with the excursion.

East Africa Epic Excellence
This review may be as long as the wait for our pandemic postponed trip to East Africa, but I want to acknowledge everyone that made it so special. Ker Downey Africa team lead by Sarah Morris and Peter Pittendirgh took every request, wish and desire and designed and delivered the most wonderful luxury adventure, exceeding our every expectations.
Our driver greeted us upon arrival at the Kilimanjaro Airport and escorted us to Elewana's Arusha Coffee Plantation Lodge for a good night's rest after the long flights from the US. The next morning, we met Charmy, our Ker Downey driver and guide, who was with us for two days. He took care of our every need from shopping to guiding our game drives through Lake Manyara and the Ngorongoro Crater. The two nights at Gibbs Farm were made special by the comfortable furnishings and nightly fires in the fireplace of our cozy cottage. The well prepared meals were fresh farm to table. A private dinner was prepared for us in celebration of our 45th wedding anniversary.
The flights to the Serengeti were flawless. Octavian, our Asilia Sayari Camp guide, met us upon arrival. He took us immediately on a personalized game drive before checking us in at the camp. Sayari Camp is a luxury tented safari lodging. Eric and the rest of the staff were friendly and attentive. We witnessed two wildebeest crossings of the Mara River, a true highlight.
Travel from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Masai Mara in Kenya is a little complicated. A small plane flight to motor coach. A drive to two immigration offices, followed by a motor coach ride to another small plane flight to Elewana's Sand River Camp.
Sand River Camp is on the banks of the peaceful and tranquil Sand River. Outstanding game drives with our Masai guide, Alex. World class cuisine prepared by the kitchen staff for ever meal. Hot Air Balloon Safari delivered a awesome balloon ride over the Masai Mara. True highlight.
After leaving the Masai Mara, we overnighted at the Hemingway Nairobi, an outstanding property and Ker Downey Africa arranged a visit to the Sheldrick Wildlife Elephant Orphanage. If you are in Nairobi, this is a must see. An incredible conservation effort to rescue and care for the elephants orphaned by human wildlife conflict and drought.
We flew to Rwanda and were met by Eric, our driver and guide for our last three days of our trip. After a night's stay in Kigali Serena Hotel, Eric drove us to Volcanoes National Park and The Singita Kwitonda Lodge. Kwitonda Lodge is probably the finest accommodations we have ever stayed. Rob and his staff provide a level of service second to none. Jonas, our personal attendant, took care of us 24 hours a day.
The Gorilla trek was beyond words. We spent an hour plus with the "Igisha" family of over thirty gorillas, including five silverbacks.
The next day we trekked the Golden Monkeys. Again, a lifetime experience. The only regret was we only stay two nights at Singita Kwitonda Lodge.
