Excellent!
Communication was fantastic all the way through. Fauziah was dictated and organised a fantastic trip. David our safari guide could not have been better - he was extremely knowledgeable and did everything to ensure we saw all the animals we wanted to (and more). He really made the difference! Our flight out of the Mara was delayed, putting our next flight at risk, but monkey adventures contacted the airline and ensured a different plane came and picked us up - travellers with different tour companies and the same issue were sadly left in the Mara to sort themselves out.
An exceptional safari operator that goes above and beyond for every guest.
I recently returned from an unforgettable trip to the Maasai Mara with Tazama Africa Holidays, and I couldn't be happier with the experience.
Our guide, Martin, was one of the best guides I've ever had. Not only is he incredibly friendly and enthusiastic, but he's also exceptionally knowledgeable. Throughout the journey, he shared fascinating insights into Kenya's history, culture, wildlife, and local way of life, making every part of the trip engaging and educational.
With over 17 years of experience, Martin's expertise was evident from the start. He went above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of our safari. He was transparent about what to expect in the park and offered thoughtful recommendations based on our interests. Thanks to his advice, we chose to do a full-day game drive, which turned out to be one of the highlights and most unforgettable memory of our trip. We saw an incredible variety of wildlife, witnessed remarkable animal behavior, and were even fortunate enough to experience the Great Migration near the Tanzanian border.
Whether you're a seasoned traveler or visiting the Maasai Mara—or anywhere else in Kenya or neighboring countries—for the first time, I highly recommend Tazama Africa Holidays. If you have the opportunity, request Martin as your driver and guide. His professionalism, friendliness, knowledge, and genuine passion for what he does made our experience truly exceptional.

A magical day with operator Nuhu in Mikumi National Park!
We had a wonderful day at Mikumi national park. We were lucky to receive Nuhu as our operator for our first safari trip, and could not be more thrilled with our experience. Nuhu knew the park like the back of his hand, and we therefore got to see a lot of different places of the park. He knew a lot of information about every animal and also the birds in the park. He is helpful assisting taking pictures at any time and takes his time to make sure you capture everything. A really good guide with a service mind. You’ll be lucky receiving Nuhu as your guide. Thank you, Nuhu! :)

Our safari dream came true
We put this 8-day private trip together with Suricata over a fair bit of back-and-forth by email, and they were patient with all of it. Both the office and our guide were genuinely flexible with what we wanted along the way. The route took us through Tarangire, Lake Manyara, central and northern Serengeti - since it was migration season and we wanted to catch the highlights - and finished in Ngorongoro. We mostly followed Damian’s advice on where and when to go, and it paid off - elephants, lions, giraffes, the wildebeest crossings, all of it. We ended up seeing everything we’d hoped for. Truly an incredible experience

8 days, 4 parks, one excellent guide - Damian went above and beyond
Good experience overall. We did an 8-day private safari across Tarangire, Lake Manyara, central and northern Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and the office was genuinely responsive over email whenever we had questions or wanted to adjust the plan. Our guide Damian was the highlight - helpful, calm and very good at finding wildlife. Between the parks we saw pretty much everything we’d hoped for, from big cats and rhinos to a great variety of birds and the migration herds

Truly amazing day in Arusha
I had a great experience with this tour company during a day tour in Arusha. Our guide, Juliana, was incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the local culture and history. She shared many interesting stories and details that made the places we visited much more meaningful.
The tour was well organized, relaxed and comfortable, and Juliana was friendly, attentive and happy to answer all our questions. It felt much more personal than simply being taken from one place to another. I really appreciated her enthusiasm and the way she helped me understand more about Tanzania and its culture. If I ever come back to Arusha, I will definitely book more tours with them!

Very communicative and delivered a great trip.
My wife and I planned an 8-day safari from Nairobi to the Masai Mara and Serengeti. The entire experience with Spirit of Kenya was fantastic. Filipa was incredibly communicative during the planning stages. We had knowledgeable guides in both Kenya and Tanzania, who were also great drivers and very friendly. We highly recommend booking with Spirit of Kenya; they delivered the dream safari experience we had envisioned.

Amazing
We are extremely satisfied with our guide Lenny during the Kenya safari tour. He is incredibly experienced and familiar with animal habits. Even those hidden animals can be quickly found by him. Lenny explained local culture and wildlife facts vividly. He was thoughtful and always cared about our experience. It was such a wonderful journey because of him. If you come to Masai Mara, choose Lenny without hesitation.
