Amazing guides!
A huge thank you to Éric and Julius for this safari in their company, a well-deserved 5 stars!
Makasa's strength lies in connecting you with a perfect local team. Éric, our French-speaking guide, was passionate, knowledgeable, and friendly. Julius, the driver, was really kind and very skilled at finding the best spots to observe the animals.
The lodges offered were good, especially the Kimbilio tented camp, with a truly wonderful team. During our stay at this camp, the Makasa owners were present but didn't show much warmth, they didn't take the time to welcome us.
Choose Makasa for its local teams, who are truly excellent and deserve working! Makasa should invest in a new vehicle for Julius, he deserves it, and it would be more comfortable for travelers. We hope you'll have the chance to be guided by Éric in French or English, it will be a wonderful experience for you!

Professional, reliable, and unforgettable from start to finish.
Our safari with Rozsella Africa Safaris exceeded every expectation. The communication before the trip was excellent, everything was well organized, and our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and always made sure we had the best wildlife sightings. We saw the Big Five and learned so much about Kenya’s wildlife and culture. The entire experience was smooth, safe, and truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience!
We had an amazing experience with Good Secrets Safaris and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.
From the very beginning, Elsy was incredibly helpful and professional. She handled all the arrangements, answered our questions promptly, coordinated the hotels, and made the entire booking process smooth and stress-free. Everything was well organized, and we always felt we were in good hands.
During our 5-day safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru, Evans was our guide. He was always friendly, positive, and willing to help with anything we needed. His great attitude and constant willingness to make our experience as enjoyable as possible really made a difference throughout the trip.
Overall, everything exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Good Secrets Safaris, especially Elsy and Evans, for making our Kenyan safari such a memorable experience. We would definitely book with you again!

Speke Holidays provided us with a long-awaited dream holiday in Uganda.
This trip was unique and fulfilled a long-held dream of ours: to see mountain gorillas in the wild.
We were amazed by the diversity of the country, the beautiful national parks, and the high density of wildlife.
The Kazinga Channel, in particular, was a dream come true—seeing so many animals together at the water's edge. All the experiences described in the itinerary came true. We saw shoebill storks, tree-climbing lions, leopards, and many other animals.
And the chimpanzee and gorilla tracking sessions were the most emotional highlight of the trip for us.
Uganda is a beautiful country with friendly people and truly the green pearl of Africa.
Speke Holidays did an excellent job organizing our two-week tour of Uganda. The route took us through the most important national parks.
The accommodations were very well chosen, and the food was always excellent.
With our experienced driver Hussein, we always felt safe. He always steered the Toyota Land Cruiser perfectly through the sometimes difficult routes.
Our guide Ian told us a great deal about the history of Uganda, the customs and traditions of the people, and was able to explain all the animals and birds to us. He is very empathetic and we had a good relationship with him and also had a lot of fun.

We cannot say enough good things about Big Cats African Safari and our wonderful guide, Omega. From the initial planning stages, their communication was prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. They expertly balanced our specific interests—such as adding a day hike on Mt. Kilimanjaro and witnessing the Great Migration—with their own deep expertise to design the perfect loop through Tanzania. Our ten-night itinerary included Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tarangire, multiple regions of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Leading up to our trip, they provided excellent guidance on what to expect and how to prepare for the trip. Once we arrived, the whole trip was seamless. Omega met us at the airport and was an extraordinary guide throughout the duration of our journey. Manuel from Big Cats also met with us upon our arrival to help us know what to expect each day.
Omega worked tirelessly to ensure we had a world-class experience. His knowledge of the local wildlife and the region was remarkably impressive – a function of his inquisitive nature and many years of study. He was also very responsible about not disturbing animals in their habitat. Together with this expertise, Omega’s friendly nature and his focus on our safety and comfort made the trip into memories for a lifetime. We were particularly impressed that Omega often knew how to find animals based on his educated hunches – rather than following other safari vehicles to the obvious highlights. Because of his expertise and his sharp eyes, we saw every animal we could have hoped to see – e.g., lions, leopards, cheetahs, black rhinos, white rhinos, elephants, giraffes, warthogs, zebras, wildebeest, and many many others. And birds! Once Omega learned that we were also interested in birds, he was able to help us spot and learn about hundreds of different birds.
For our accommodations, Big Cats selected tented camps that were clean, comfortable, friendly, and perfectly located for spotting wildlife. In the end, the price was similar to three other quotes we received from various safari companies. But we learned that some companies were more reluctant to help us design a custom itinerary – Big Cats worked with us every step of the way. We’ve been lucky go on several African safaris and many games drives. Big Cats was far and away our best experience.
