Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by Oussama
The Masai Mara was the highlight of our safari in Kenya. The wildlife viewing was incredible, the vast open landscapes were breathtaking and the whole experience felt like a true African safari. Every game drive was exciting and offered something different. The combination of wildlife, scenery and atmosphere made it an unforgettable experience and a destination I would definitely visit again

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by Oussama
Lake Nakuru was a very enjoyable safari experience. The landscapes around the lake are beautiful and the park offers a good variety of wildlife in a relatively compact area. It was a great place to enjoy nature, take photos and experience a different atmosphere from the Masai Mara. Definitely worth visiting as part of a Kenya safar

A good mixture between modern and tradition. Depends of course where you are
We travelled as a couple and made a mixture between tour operator for Serengeti tour and self organized. We had a rented car for 11 days, this was perfect, sometimes challenging, but we enjoyed the freedom. Trafic was not as bad as expected and also police controls were easy.
I was a little worried about to much traffic Jam in Serengeti and Ngorogoro during high season. All over all it was full but not that bad. At the entrence everyone is together but after a while all cars go different directions and you can also enjoy the fantastic landscape alone.
But I heared that in July 2026 there were less tourists than expected.
All accomodations we had during our stay were fantastic. I don´t need it fancy but I must say all places had great atmosphere and great food.
I must say, the people in Tanzania are very very friendly!!!
But we also left the normal touristy paths and there is always a difference how people react to you as an obvious tourist

African Dream
I had a wonderful time. Can recommend Zambezi Quest and Brighton to everyone. It was all very professionally planned. Hotels were nice. We had Gerry as our Tourguide. He was great. He was always on time and made sure that we are happy. He is very knowledgeable. Had trouble with my luggage, which did not arrive and they made sure, that my vacation will go smoothly. They finally got it. They make sure that you are happy with everything. Would go with this company again. Thank you Brighton. Gerry and Prince.

It felt like meeting Rafiki from Simba in person.
Our trip to Tanzania with Makisala Safaris was such an amazing experience from start to finish. James, our guide, was fantastic and made the safari even more special with his knowledge, patience, and great sense of humor. Everything was well organized, and we always felt taken care of throughout the trip. We would definitely recommend Makisala to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Amazing 8D/7N Safari in Kenya and Tanzania
Shanjoy Tours organized an amazing 8D/7N safari with 3 days in Masai Mara, 1 day in North Serengeti, 2 days in Central Serengeti, 1 day in Ngorongoro Crater and 1 day Tarangere NP.
Ms. Rodah was our tour coordinator who was absolutely brilliant through the planning stages and checked in with us every day of our safari to make sure everything was going smoothly. She picked fantastic accommodations for us which were both luxurious and immersive. She was quick to respond to every question we had and giving us useful tips. She is excellent at what she does and provided 5 star service.
Our guide in Kenya, Mr. Jamlek is passionate about his work and knows Masai Mara like the back of his hand. He gave us some incredible sightings of the Big Five by day 2 and even a cheetah sighting as a bonus. We had an amazing sighting of a Leopard that walked past our safari jeep. We had a total of 15 sightings of lion prides including a lion with a buffalo kill surrounded by hyenas and vultures and a pride of 6 lions strolling in the Savannah early morning. He even went above and beyond to help us pick up our lost luggage from the Olkiombe Airstrip. He has an incredible intuition of sighting game. He is also a fantastic and safe driver with superb knowledge of Masai Mara. He dropped us off at the Isebania border crossing into Tanzania and helped us with a smooth transfer.
Mama Savanna handled the Tanzanian portion of our tour. Mr. Marley our guide in Tanzania is exceptional at his work. He has an incredible knowledge of the bird and animal wildlife in Tanzania. He was brilliant at spotting wildlife and we had the opportunity to see two leopard sightings including Leopard cubs, multiple sightings of lions including a pride of lions resting 10 feet from our safari jeep as well as a cheetah sighting. In Ngorongoro he showed us a herd of 4 White Rhinos which we were able to watch from close quarters for a half hour. He took great care of us for the five days we spent in Tanzania. He is a very safe driver and a professional safari guide.
Thanks to our amazing guides Mr. Jamlek and Mr. Marley, we had amazing sightings of the Big Five in both the Masai Mara and Tanzania.
All in all we are glad we picked Shanjoy Tours and Safaris who were very transparent from the beginning and provided a five star experience from start to finish.

Unforgettable 6-day safari in Rwanda andUganda
I recently completed a 6-day safari in Rwanda and Uganda as a solo traveler and photographer, and it was an experience I'll treasure for a long time.
The office was excellent from the start — quick to respond to every message and very accommodating with all my customization requests. They arranged a good mix of lodges throughout the trip, and importantly, they gave me confidence and reassurance about my reserved gorilla tracking permit, which was one of the main reasons I chose this trip.
My guide, Edgar, was punctual and flexible with all my ideas along the way. One thing that really stood out: since we entered Uganda by land, I hadn't had the chance to withdraw any local currency. Edgar kindly offered to help by exchanging USD for local currency whenever I needed it — a small gesture, but one I truly appreciated.
Edgar is also a clearly experienced driver with solid knowledge of the animals in the field. His eyes were incredible — he could spot something as well-camouflaged as a monitor lizard hiding in a tree from a good distance away. It was also obvious that he's well-regarded and well-liked among the other guides.
Of course, safaris don't always go exactly as planned — there were a couple of days when the wildlife simply wasn't cooperating — but Edgar never stopped trying, doing everything he could to help us find animals.
One of my favorite memories came on the last day. We finished our activities a bit early, so Edgar organized an adhoc community visit, where I got to learn about local coffee-making and try tasting banana beer and banana gin. It was such a thoughtful addition, and I'm really grateful he took the initiative to make that happen.
Overall, this was a very enjoyable safari experience, and I'd highly recommend both the company and Edgar as a guide.
