Professional, competent, safe - and so much fun!
Economic Adventure Safaris were a great tour operator for our visit to the Maasai Mara. The office support were kind and communicative and not at all pushy as we were trying to decide on what to do. Our driver, Edward, was amazing - he knew exactly how to position is to see the animals and he was also very knowledgeable about the animals and the park. He was able to spot animals we could barely see with binoculars! It was astonishing. I have no complaints at all. If we ever make it back to Kenya, we will definitely go with them again.

Professional, Reliable & Truly Exceptional
Their communication was impeccable from start to finish. They shared a well-planned itinerary in advance, which made it easy for us to prepare and know exactly what to expect. Every update was timely, clear, and thorough..no guesswork, no follow-ups needed. Just smooth, professional coordination.
They kept time to the core; every pickup, every drive, every schedule item was executed with precision. They also ensured we followed the itinerary exactly as planned, without rushing us or causing any delays. Their commitment to time and structure made the trip smooth and completely stress-free.
The service was top-tier. James, our guide, was exceptional, knowledgeable, warm, patient, and deeply passionate about the Mara. He gave us a safe, seamless, and enriching safari experience. We saw 4 of the Big Five and even the notorious Ugly 5. We enjoyed breathtaking sunsets and experienced the serenity of the Mara River. The journey was beautifully curated, and the entire experience surpassed my expectations.
From the scenic road trip to the expertly guided game drives and the seamless coordination with Zebra Plains Camp, we truly received value for money. Every part of the experience felt intentional and worth it.
Morning Star Tours & Travel is, without a doubt, a highly professional, reliable, and client-focused agency. We highly recommend them for an unforgettable experience!

Trip of a lifetime
We had the most incredible trip, organised by Julieth who was really brilliant and made many personalisations to our itinerary, and guided by the incrediblly knowledgeable, kind and patient George.
We stayed in Heart and Soul Lodge for Tarangaire and Ngorogo Crater, in Into the Wild for our time in the Serengeti- which was the best accommodation we have ever stayed in- and Nungui Beach Resort for our time in Zanzibar. All great places to stay, with a wide variety of food both for me who is very picky (think beige, think chicken) and my husband who is more adventurous with his food!
We got to see so many animals up close. George made sure we got to all our favourite animals as well as the Big 5, with a highlight being a 2 hour old baby giraffe, two hippos who chased eachother right in front of our jeep, and a pride of lions including 3 males.
Our time in Zanzibar was also great, we especially enjoyed learning about how so many different spices and day to day producted like chocolate and coffee are grown. The staff at the hotel were amazing, teaching us how to weave, organising volleyball tournaments, and bringing us on a lovely walk of the town including to a turtle sanctuary.
An absolute trip of a lifetime, but if we were to do another safari we would not hesitate to book with Brilliant Safaris!

Amazing
My Kenyan safari with Horizon Hunt Safaris exceeded all expectations. From seeing the iconic red elephants of Tsavo East to taking in the breathtaking views of Amboseli’s savannah with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, every moment was unforgettable. Visiting the Masai Mara in September was truly special. My partner and I were fortunate to witness the wildebeest migration and the dramatic Mara River crossing, a lifelong dream come true.
I would highly recommend Horizon Hunt Safaris and their entire team, especially our tour guide Francis, whose excellent navigation and deep knowledge of the wildlife enriched our experience from the moment we arrived in Kenya to the day we departed.

A once in a lifetime experience
For those looking to check off another item off their bucket list and to see a Safari as it is meant to be, I highly recommend going to Kenya. From the first camp to the last, it’s like walking onto a movie set. The picturesque views and the abundance of wildlife were so much more than we expected. We saw lions and rhinos and zebras and giraffes and monkeys and wildebeest and buffaloes in warthogs and birds aplenty. And for the most amazing experience, I highly recommend the hot air balloon over the Masai Mara - you will never forget it

Namibia is very interesting, it's dunes unforgettable, wildlife unbelievable, arid, worth visiting.
Namibia is very diverse. Windhoek, the capital beautiful, Etosha National Park full of wildlife, exciting. The skeleton coast quite unique with its city
Swakopmund very German influence and pretty. The Namib dunes, one of the oldest deserts in the world very captivating. and worth visiting. When we were there, it was quite hot, so an early walk was necessary. The landscape in some parts, pretty others very arid and dry. We travelled in our minibus thousands of kilometers to see it all, most of the roads are unsealed so we were "rock n rolled" quite a bit. As the African call it "African massage" It is not for the faint hearted or people with back problems. Due to the hot climate, we needed to buy many bottles of water daily which our tour operator did not provide. Disappointed! For the money we paid, we were expected at least water to be provided! Most of the accommodation very good. Meals Superb. All in all, it was an experience I will never forget. Would I do it again, definitely.

Vincent is fun, engaging and an incredible animal spotter.
I have been on two safaris with Special Moments Africa and intend to go on a third. What we saw was just incredible and unforgettable. I wish everyone could have such an experience. We saw all the animals and we even drove into Uganda and trekked with Vincent to see mountain gorillas. We felt so safe and secure and comfortable. Vincent is also so kind and fun and made us feel like part of his family.

Very professional, cost-friendly, and excellent.
If you’re looking for a local tour operator that would not break the bank, this is it. I highly recommend Wild Media Safaris. My husband and I wanted to experience our first Safari without sacrificing comfort, and Wild Media Safaris surely delivered. Me and my husband enjoyed all our accommodations throughout our trip as they were all great and pleasant. The owners Cornel and Jackie were very accommodating with our requests. Kweka, who was our Safari Tour Guide was very professional and knew responsible tourism - something we tourists should be mindful about while enjoying the wild. We were so happy that we saw the Big 5.
Thank you so much Wild Media Safaris! We will definitely recommend you to all of our friends!

Trip of a Lifetime
Our family safari truly was a trip of a lifetime from start to end. Luice was prompt in his response to my inquiry, questions and ensuring every detail was addressed. Alfa, our driver, provided outstanding service. Not only did he guarantee our safety on the roads, but he also impressed us with his extensive wildlife knowledge and exceptional spotting abilities. Thanks to his keen eye, we observed a diverse array of animals, including elephants, lions—highlighted by a memorable sighting of a lioness with her cubs—giraffes, zebras, and many more species in their natural habitats. The accommodation arranged for us was both comfortable and welcoming. The staff consistently went out of their way to be helpful, enhancing our overall experience. A particularly thoughtful aspect was how Luice communicated my daughter’s food allergies to the lodges in advance, ensuring that her dietary needs were met and she was well cared for throughout our stay. Among the many highlights, the breathtaking scenery offering us a window into Tanzania's natural beauty. The safari hot air balloon ride, which provided unique and unforgettable views of the landscape and wildlife from above. I wholeheartedly recommend Go Giraffe Safari for anyone seeking adventure, educational opportunities, and outstanding service.

Very friendly, informative and welcoming.
I would definitely recommend Salt Holidays for a safari trip. We went on a two days trip at Murchison Falls National Park.
We left Kampala early on a Saturday morning, arriving at the park midday. Going on a boat trip on the Nile among alligators and hippos, seeing the great fall, as well as having plenty of time to see plenty of different animals such as lions, giraffes, elephants, different types of monkeys among other.
