Completely Exceeded Our Expectations!
I can’t speak highly enough about Spirit of Kenya Safari’s and our experience in Africa. Our tour arranger Susana was great and helped us put a fantastic itinerary together to maximize our length of stay and budget available while in Kenya. We chose three days/two nights in Tsavo West and three days/two nights in Amboseli. We stayed at the Sarova Salt Lick Game Lodge in Tsavo West which was this very cool lodge built on stilts above a watering hole. While there we were lucky enough to have a herd of elephants visit the waterhole giving us a very special up close and personal look at these incredible animals. In Amboseli we stayed at the Serena Safari Lodge and were equally happy with both accommodations. This is hardly roughing it, but the accommodations were budget friendly, the rooms and meals very good and the service at both places top notch. A special mention has to go to our Spirit of Kenya guides, Charles and Moses. They were both fantastic! Funny, but not obnoxious, knowledgeable but did not drone on incessantly, and most importantly listened to our group and made sure they met our needs and took care of us throughout the safari, which by the way exceed all of our expectations. We kept saying at the end of each day, how can tomorrow possibly top today, and then it would!!!!

Professional and friendly guide
We were a group of four friends and we spend 10 days with Medison. He made our trip unforgettable. Before accepting to do the trip with him, he gave us advice and he patiently modified again and again our plan until we really loved our itinerary. Once in Tanzania the whole trip was perfectly organised and it even exceeded our expectations. Medison was very friendly, paying attention to our needs, comfort and above all to our safety. I would totally recommend you to take a safari with professional safari Africa. Medison is really well trained as a guide, he has the best staff with him, and he has an incredible knowledge about animals and their behaviour. For us, Medison contributed with no doubt to have not only an excellent trip but also a life time experience.

Amazing safari, completely customised to our preferences, everything we wished for and more
We went on a 4-day safari in the first week of december. We wanted a basic-camping safari that would fit our budget. African Jackal gave us one of the best offers. What made us decide to go for African Jackal, is the option they gave us to completely customise the safari up to our wishes. Martin helped us with a fine hotel in Arusha, and then our safari through Ngorongoro and Serengeti started.
This has been an amazing experience to all of us. Thanks to our experienced driver and guide Nobat with amazing skills an magical eyes, we were able to see all the wildlife we dreamed of and more. He was also able to give us a lot of background information and some funny facts. He knew exactly when to stop the car for watching the animals and taking our pictures, and when to speed up to catch another scene of mating lions or a leopard going on a hunt.
After a day of game drives we arrived at the camp where our cook Mika had already put up our tents and prepared the most delicious, luxury 3-course meals every day, completely adapted to our preferences and diets. The public campsites (Simba and Seronera) were just fine, and every morning we woke up with a surprise of being surrounded by many animals very close by, followed by a tasty breakfast again from the cook.
The organisation of our trip went fluent thanks to the smooth communication with Martin & Mage and their flexibility and quick replies to any question at any time. Our safari car had everything we needed and our hole journey was very comfortable, even to my 60-year old parents with no any previous travel or safari experience. On the last day they even drove us all the way up to Shirati, where we were going to spend the rest of our time in Tanzania.
Very, very big thanks to African Jackal, Martin & Mage, guide Nobat & cook Mika, for giving us this unforgettable experience.

Everyone Should Visit Uganda/Highly Recommend Augur Tours and Dauda!!!
I had an opportunity to go on a tour along with a couple of friends to a number of different places in Uganda with Dauda and I had an absolutely incredible time. I would wholeheartedly recommend him and his tour company. I felt that the trip was a very authentic Ugandan experience and I really appreciated that it didn’t feel like a canned, touristy experience. Dauda was very knowledgeable not only about the flora and fauna within the national parks we visited, but also was able to shared general information about the towns we drove through and different ethnic groups within Uganda. Dauda certainly knew his way around the national park and had numerous contacts that he was in touch with during our game drives to learn about the best spots to see animals. From his numerous trips there, Dauda even knew about things such the specific trees that the lions often frequented. Dauda remembered things that we said and followed up on them. He also went out of his way to do the things that we liked and make sure that we felt safe and comfortable at all times. I felt very safe driving around the country with Dauda and he did an excellent job driving on the challenging roads.
