An incredible adventure that was so much more than we could ever expected!
Elijah picked us up at the airport in Nairobi and from there we embarked on 6 days of the most amazing sights and sounds and delights.
We stayed in very comfortable lodgings and ate well, but the best thing was how busy Elijah kept us off touring around the countryside of Amboseli National Park and the Masai Mara. We got to view everything from cheetahs and an elusive leopard to the magnificent birds that Elijah is so good at spotting. I got much better at it with his guidance.
We saw elephants and giraffes and wildebeests and zebras and so much more that if it weren’t for all my terrific photos it would almost seem to have been a wonderful dream.
I would recommend to anyone that is considering a Kenyan safari to contact contact Gracieh at Kenya Turacos Safaris.

Surpassed all of my expectations!
Clear communication, quick responses, safety, quality of lodging, excellent food, and knowledgable staff allowed us to enjoy the beauty of Tanzania in a most comfortable and enjoyable way!! Thank you Earthlife, Caudence, who handled our arrangements, and thank you Kessi, you are now a good friend! There are many tour companies in Tanzania. I requested quotes and narrowed it down by quick response, clear itineraries, nice lodging, and price. The quick communication that we received from Earthlife, as well as their assurance that this was OUR vacation and that they would make any changes that we wanted, convinced us to go with them. They swapped out a park for us, added a tour that we wanted, switched the dates, shortened one part of our visit, added another traveler. All inquiries were quickly answered. We were never left waiting or wondering. We were able to email and talk via WhatsApp to the company. Once we arrived, we were picked up at the airport and we were taken care of for our entire trip! Our guide, Kessi, took his job very seriously. He assured us that whatever we needed or wanted, he was there for us. Kessi is so knowledgable about all of the animals and birds. He could spot things before we would ever see them with our binoculars. He shared lots about the history of Tanzania and taught us Swahili and even sang with us! We joked and laughed a lot on this trip! It replenished my soul! So much natural beauty and friendly people happy to share their culture with us. Kessi assisted us when we wanted to purchase souvenirs, so that we could visit places with good prices and he helped us so that we would not be too bothered by people trying to sell us things. He would give us the facts we needed to behave in culturally appropriate ways. In addition, Kessi is a very good driver. I always felt safe. The drivers have to really concentrate on some of the rough roads and he was very focused to assure a good ride. He made it clear that we could see some good things if we were patient to wait. We had some experiences where other vehicles left and we got a good show! In summary, this was a trip of a lifetime and I would absolutely, undoubtedly recommend Earthlife Expeditions!

Excellent service, very friendly staff, well-equipped vehicle for self-drive tour
We have rented a fully equipped Toyota Hilux for a self-drive tour of four weeks in Malawi. The staff of Land and Lake were very friendly and supportive. Especially when we suffered two flat tyres on 1 day: the superb service of Land and Lake ensured that we got to our scheduled destination with a taxi without hardly any delay and that our vehicle was repaired and delivered the next day at our destination. Would recommend anyone to chose for Land and Lake when travelling to Malawi!

Perfect!
We found Dusty Roads on the safaribooking, with good reviews and many safari options.
I have contacted them per epost and had long dialogue with Molel, who replied patiently to plenty of question, suggested and discussed accommodation and tours, payment methods (we wished to use credit card) and much more.
When we arrived to Kilimanjaro airport, there were our guide, Emanuel, waiting for us.
On day one we visited local coffee farm (with Tanzanian dinner) - great introduction to Tanzania.
Safari was unbelievable! It was really a dream tour!
We visited Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire.
We have seen a lot of animals. Our guide was very good to spot wildlife and knew much of all species. He had books (in English) as well, showing us photos and description of animals and plants. We were very lucky to have him as a guide.
We have chosen luxurious accommodation (lodges / hotels) - locations suggested by Molel were even better than we expected.

They are excellent in their communication, choices on the holiday destination and team buildings.
Have excellent customer service. Quick to respond to our queries on the trip and Holiday. We have used them to book for our holiday destination in Masai Mara, Nakuru and company team building in Naivasha. They have deep knowledge on the Kenya Holiday destinations and Safaris and offers choices that have excellent services.
My family greatly liked and enjoyed the excellent services offered on the August Masai Mara Holiday .

Great experience with Richard
We went to 3 days safari in Masai Mara, 1 day Lake Nakuru and 1 day Lake Naivasha with perfect price. Thanks to Lennox for that. It is realy cheapest one. There is one thing which is We were not happy that count of the people in the safari car. 8 people were too much.
The most important thing is driver for safari. And we had best driver because Richard did his best. His eyes like an eagle. He found almost all animals you can see except Leopard in Safari. He is so kind and helpful as well. He try to help about all your problem during the trip.

Amazing experience, everything was thought of and arranged, excellent service.
Beverly and her tour operator was since the beginning the perfect contact in Kenya. Not only was she able to give us advice on what places to visit, she also did it on our budget, which was perfect. The trip was amazing, Kenya is a beautiful place and we were able to visit the city of Nairobi, Amboselli, Masai Mara and the coast, guides and drivers were also excellent. Overall an incredible experience.

Never better than this.
Quick reply , all inclusive, well explained etc.
When I met them first in Arusha, Suricata people Welcome us. They try to explain everything in detail.
Furthermore, we did not like the accomodation they recommend us, so I found the other one, but they came to our hotel and explained tomorrow schedule.
Also I was afraid that they would not come to pick me up, but they came to pick me up very correct time(like 6:30am)
I have never found they were late. They were very promised people.
Also when I had 3days tour, the safari car had no problem at all. I found they always fill the fuel fulled.
I actually have got quotation more than 10 company. However I never regeret that I have chosen Suricata safaris.
I strongly recommend suricata for young 20~40years old people.
Never better than this.
This company is quite young, so I am sure that young people will like it.
Asante.

A once in a lifetime honeymoon for my wife and I with the best tour operator around!
Paul organised a once in a lifetime honeymoon for my wife and I this year and it is something that we will never forget!
We have dreamed of visiting Africa for a safari for a long time but deciding just where to go is not easy with so many options. We contacted Paul about organising a trip for us that would be a little bit more off the beaten tourist track of places like the Serengeti. We also liked the conservation projects that Paul Tickner Safaris supports and that helped us decide which tour operator to go with.
From the first day of contact with Paul and even after we returned he was attentive and provided a fabulous worry free trip.
We worked on a package together for a couple of weeks to find something that suited what we wanted within the budget we could afford.
We finally decided on Ruaha National Park in Tanzania and the Ikuka Safari camp. This would be followed by 5 days on the beach on Zanzibar.
After this decision was made the only thing we had to organise our self was our flights to and from the UK (although Paul did also advise us on this as well). We found KLM to be great for this flight.
Paul arranged everything flawlessly in country for us. Every pick up at every airport and anything else you can possibly imagine.
Ikuka Safari camp is a very special place and we could not recommend it highly enough. Paul’s wonderful relationship with the camp also immediately makes you feel very welcome on arrival.
The game viewing in Ruaha National Park is incredible. A short list includes: 6 leopards, 12 lions, Wild dogs, python, buffalo, elephants, giraffes and bird life that there is enough time to type out the variety. Truly a special place and a trip organised by someone that obviously cares a great deal for it!
