Amazing adventure
First of all we want to thank our guides Francis Karika and Patrick. Traveling around Kenya for just over a week with Francis in the safari beast was like traveling with a friend who knew his job well.
He provided us with great insights into the Kenyan animals behaviour and we saw most of them close up, including some mating. We also watched lions etc eating their prey.
The whole tour was well organised and we would recommend it to anybody.
The accommodations were good as was the viewing from the 4WD.

Brilliant Udzwunga and Mikumi Tour
We had a brilliant 4 days organised by Wildness Safari. Having no knowledge of safari companies we researched as far as possible and feel we selected a good one based on our experience. After booking, all queries via email were very quickly responded to and answered. I felt I was dealing with an organised and professional company. I also wanted to change the itinerary slightly, allowing us to visit a school that we have links with, and the company were able to accommodate that also.
Ahmed personally came to pick up our final payment the day before we went on Safari at a time convenient to us and he brought along Raj who would be our driver and guide. Thought this was a nice personal touch.
Raj arrived early on the day of the Safari so we left on time. The drive is a long one to the Morogoro region ( 5 hours or more ) but lots to take in as you drive along and Raj provided an excellent service informing us of things of interest ( as well as being a great guy, easy to get on with ).
The detour to the primary school added a few hours extra to our journey but it was worth it and Raj just took it all in his stride. Eventually we reached Mikumi and enjoyed our first taste of a Safari as the animals are just roaming free beside the road.
When we arrived at Camp Bastian there were no issues on arrival or with any part of the organisation over the few days. The camp has a lovely vibe and I would highly recommend. Lodge rooms are small but what would you expect on Safari?
Our trip to the Udzwunga Mountains was fantastic. The walk to the Sanje Waterfalls is about 6km and is challenging but manageable. We learnt and saw such a lot led by an enthusiastic local guide. Raj had made sure we had a guide who knows his stuff so we had the best experience possible. The views from the top are amazing and the chance to have a dip in the cold plunge pool was exhilarating.
The Safari to Mikumi National park was awesome and brilliantly guided by Raj. Mikumi is a smaller, quieter park I believe and so we could enjoy the wild at our leisure. Even managed to see a lion and cubs thanks to Raj's determination ( and luck ).
Great experience made even better by the personal service we received from start to finish from Wildness Safari.
Overall exceeded our expectations. Thank you Wildness Safari

Everything organized perfectly
Compass Odyssey has taken care of us for 14 days on a trip in which we have toured parks in South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe. The organization has been perfect. We have had the best guides in each of the areas visited, so that our final list of birds and mammals seen has been impressive. During the preparation of the trip, they adapted perfectly to our requirements, making reasonable suggestions to improve the itinerary. Fantastic!

Holiday of a lifetime thanks to Spirit of Kenya and their fantastic guide
From the beginning when we started to plan our safari holiday, Spirit of Kenya shone out as the company who communicated promptly and efficiently and they were always there with a friendly reply to our queries. It was the best decision to choose this company and we had the holiday of a lifetime, helped massively by the wonderful guide, Raphael. Everything Spirit of Kenya promised was delivered. Our guide arrived on time to pick us up at the start of the safari and from that moment on we felt safe and confident we were in the hands of an experienced and knowledgeable guide. Without such a guide we would have missed out on so many things to see - he was truly amazing. We would urge anyone out there wishing to book a safari in Kenya to choose Spirit of Kenya.

The Best Safari Tour, it exceeded our expectations
We went on a four day safari tour with Beacon Safaris. We visited lake Nakuru and Maassai Mara. Beacon Safaris made all the arrangements, hotel, car, game drives etc. On the first day, we were picked up from our hotel in Nairobi at 7:00 am and driven Lake Nakuru where we spent our first afternoon, made our first game drive, and spent our first night. The next day we were driven to Maassai Mara where we spent the last three days and went on multiple game drives. At Maassai Mara Beacon Safaris booked us at the Ashnil Mara Camp. An excellent hotel. The highlight of it all were certainly the daily game drives. Our driver, Ken, was fantastic. Thanks to him we managed to see four of the big fives, plus many other animals. He knew were to go to find the animals, and how to position the car to get the best pictures. When we booked the tour we did not expect to see so many animals, and so close to them. Ken is kind, pleasant, patient, accommodating, very knowledgeable, and an excellent driver. Thank you Beacon Safaris for making our safari trip a wonderful and memorable experience.

Robert was extremely helpful and fully understood what our needs were.
We were very happy with the service we received from Wild Africa. Everything was organised perfectly. Flights, Hotels, transfers the works. Our safari was amazing. We had particular places we wanted to stay and Robert organised it all wonderfully. We loved the places they recommended as well and will return there. We had to cancel one of our travellers and that was taken care of without a hitch. We will use Wild Africa again.
