Excellent care and guidance. Very knowledgable about area and wildlife.
We have been on several safaris in Africa, and this one was by far the best. Total care of their clients began when they picked us up in Ashura, introduced their staff and greeted every one of us (there were 17 in our group). Our guide, Godson and Emanual, our driver, greeted us daily, with a big smile, telling us what about the day's events. They were eager to please us and would go out of their way to get the best view of the wildlife. They are very professional and courteous to other drivers.
I would definitely book with Vuriva again, with no hesitation.

Great, well organised 3day Kruger Safari
The communication by e-mail with David was very smooth. He picked us up from our hotel in Johannesburg together with Thom. Both
David and Thom are very friendly and helpful. David is an experienced guide, we could listen to his adventurous stories for hours. The Kruger Adventure Lodge is a nice lodge with friendly staff. We were only two people but we got to stay in a large bungalow with one double bed and two single beds! On the first day, we already saw a lot of animals during the sunset safari. Eventually after the full day safari on the second day, we saw the big five except the leopard. On the third and last day, we followed the Panorama Route which was absolutely worth it. Overall we had a lovely trip. There were only a few minor points like the sandwich that was provided in the packed breakfast and that we had to wait a long time at the gate to enter Kurger on the second day. We definitely recommend Adventour!

Excellent from the meeting at the airport and always on time.Very warm reception
Our visit to Kenya was really a fantastic one with African Skimmer Safaris. We were met by one very kind and informative safari guide "Nick" he was so polite and briefed us every morning and evening and therefore making us very ready of what to expect which made it so easy for us psychologically. The safari was way beyond our expectation with great sightings of the big game. Being interested in almost everything in terms of fauna and flora, Nick came in handy as he was so good in identifying a lot of bird species and a lot of wonderful road side flowers and trees in the areas we visited. The land of big cats was so fruitful as we had a whole pride of lions,13 members one evening on the hunt. He really offered a lot of information about the history and the way of life of different communities in Kenya. We surely look forward to having another safari in Kenya and cannot hesitate to recommend African Skimmer Safaris to any potential traveler planning to visit Kenya and east Africa as a whole.

Well knowledgeable with every place we visited,gave us ample time to enjoy and capture every moment
If i could use one word,id say...Satisfactory.There were no communication hiccups hence making it feel quite homely.The safari was the best part.To start with the vehicle was big,comfortable and spacious.We were able to see most,if not all the animals we wished to and clearly they knew the right place and time for that.Our expectations were far and beyond and all other services were met accordingly.

I can Say They are One of the Best and Most Friendly Team!!!
My wife and I organised an African safari with African Adventure Specialists last year in August. We were overwhelmed by the service given to us which was beyond our expectations. The choice of accommodation provided was the best and never knew such hotels and lodges exist in Africa. The safari jeep was well maintained and almost new. Our driver was very kind and spotted for us almost every animal we wanted to see. There is no doubt that African Adventure team lead by Andrew are the best travel planners for any Adventure for an African safari. I recommend them 100%

Kilimanjaro: Barafu made it happen for us
My daughter and I did the Lemosho Route with Barafu in February, 2018. This was our first experience with a multiple day trek, and neither of us had very much time to do physical training in advance, so we just figured we would see how far we could go. Barafu was recommended to us by a Peace Corps volunteer we knew. The Barafu team knew what we needed and gently and skillfully and playfully guided us and took care of us every step of the way. Chance was our main contact and he was extremely responsive and accommodating during the planning process and he handled all logistics including transport from the airport, hotel issues, and pulling together a last minute day trip. Our guides, Mohammed and Diglan, were experienced, informative, encouraging, and fun. The food and the service was excellent. The team morale was very positive from start to finish. Along the way, these guys completely won our trust relative to feedback and decisions that optimized our experience and ensured our health and safety. This allowed us to summit on the 6th day, a day earlier than we had planned, and we spent most of our time just enjoying the experience. The whole thing was a complete delight and Barafu was a fantastic partner to have in this endeavor.

Amazing Memories Safaris treated me very well!
I chose Amazing Memories Safaris for my second trip to Kenya. Planning began with Anne in mid-2017 less than a year after I returned from my first Kenya safari which had been arranged with another tour operator. Anne was very helpful and responsive in the planning process and by August I had a contract in hand and had paid a deposit for a safari scheduled for this month, Feb. 2018.
Unfortunately, I encountered serious health complications in the fall of 2017 and eventually had to cancel this trip. I let Anne know of this possibility in Dec. but by this time payments had been made for lodging in Samburu and at Offbeat Mara plus a flight from Nairobi to the Mara. But Anne was able to get a refund from Offbeat Mara, so both are to be commended for their wonderful customer service.
Even though I was unable to make this trip, my financial losses were greatly reduced by the above mentioned refund and redeposit of my airline miles and a refund of airline fees paid to United. I expect an additional small refund from my trip insurance claim.
