Memorable experience, 4 day safari Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
Fully recommended safari tour operator. Roselyn provided all information and support before booking that trip on short notice. She was very responsive and patient. No problems with fitting safari plan to our needs and budget. We had private trip with experience guide Peter.

Well done Safari Update!
We were nervous about going through a foreign company, but in the end we were really glad we did. Not only does the money get invested in the country and goes to the people who actually need it, but Safari Update Travels gave us a fantastic experience.
We dealt with Silas from the office and he was patient and prompt. Our first stop was at Tsavo West where we had a guide, James, who was excellent and we were sad to see him go when we switched parks. I would definitely recommend James.
Safari Update Travels also took care of the little things, like a transfer from the airport to our hotel and then to the restaurant Carnivore - our package also included a prepaid dinner at Carnivore which was a nice surprise to finish off the Safari.
I have no hesitation recommending Safari Update Travels and am working on my parents to use them when they travel to Africa. Well Done!!!

Excellent First Time Experience!
We booked the 5 day, 4 night safari and everything about it was fantastic. We had never been to Africa and I was a bit clueless as what to book and for how long etc but after a simple email to Silas who works in the office, he just asked for some rough dates and duration and tailor made a safari for us that took a night in Amboseli, a night at Lake Naivasha and then 2 nights in Masai Mara.
Our guide/driver, Simon, picked us up and was truly exceptional. His knowledge and help were spot on and we only felt like we weren't asking him enough! He told us all about the Kenyan culture, tribes, history and of course everything about the wild and animals we saw.
We opted for standard accommodation and it was amazing. The camps/lodges we stayed at were really nice, all with pools, good showers and great facilities - a bar :)
No complaints whatsoever and fully recommend Safari Update Travels and Simon our guide."

Very professionally mapped out everything I was told was true
I was in Zanzibar with my daughter son in law and 2 grandchildren a Safari had been on my bucket list for many years.My daughter done all the research she spoke to many companies but after speaking with Lomo she thought that they sounded genuine and were value for money.We were not disappointed the service from the driver was first class and all the accommodations were first class.I would highly recommend Lomo to anyone.

The best tour company
We did a 3-day, 2-night safari with Safari Update Travels to Masai Mara. They are awesome. They were very friendly and accommodating. They put us in a nice camp and the driver went out of his way to help us spot a ton of animals in the park. (The only one we didn't see was the rhino, but that's hard to spot in the Mara anyways). He even helped us park the car in a way that allowed us to take nice selfies with the animals! Safari Update Travels made my trip to Kenya one to remember!

Amazing honeymoon safari
Well, i never thought I'll enjoy this much on such a 3 Days safari but actually now i have unforgettable memories of Tanzanian Mother nature thanks to Aenea who was the best friend trying to answer all questions and prepare the most amazing honeymoon for us with all the passion and caring in the world, but the trip wouldn't actually be anything at all except for the Super Friend and Guide Kelly, he made our honeymoon worth it with doing his best everywhere during the trip to make our experience unforgettable, and he actually did amazing and sure our anniversary will always be with them!

Amazing
We had a great time on our short but exciting safari trip.
Our guide/chauffeur was punctual and picked us up at our stay in Kampala at 7am on Sunday.
The trip to Murchison went smooth with a coffee break at a nice place by the road with clean toilets and good coffee.
Our guide worked through the payment/paperwork by the Murchison park entrance and on arrival at Paraa we checked in at Paraa safari lodge and had lunch.
Once again we got picked up on time by our guide who drove us to the Nile 5min away.
We had a 3h boat safari up to the Murchison falls and saw hippos, crocodiles and elephant and some other animals on the way, by the river bank.
We continued straight to and evening safari in the park and we’re lucky to see both elephants, giraffes and lions among other animalS in the dusk. Dinner at the at 7pm. The Lodge have pleasant rooms with AC and comfortable beds.
Coffe in the morning and a morning safari at 6. Highly recommended! We saw lions eating and other animals inf the morning. Breakfast at the lodge and then checking out and continuing for a stop at Murchison falls our way home.
The car was comfortable with AC and a roof that got taken away during the safari trips.
We got back at 5pm on Monday.
The guy was informative without being stressful and was a great driver and guide.
We could have stopped at Ziwa rhinos sanctuar but choose not to in order to get back home before the worst traffic jams in Kampala.
We had a great time!

Danny Boy was the BEST!
Out of all the Safari companies to choose from we literally hit the JACKPOT with African Chitah! Trust me, BOOK IT! And while you’re at it, ask for Danny Boy! He made this a trip of a lifetime for us! They made everything about this experience so easy that all we had to do was enjoy ourselves!

Best experience in my life!
Excellent tour company!!! Vanessa who did all the tour’s organization was impeccable; We were looking on this trip for approximately 1 year and I had to postpone it due to the pandemic, I sent around 200 emails to Vanessa and she always answered all my doubts, with great education and resolution. My expectations were very high, as the recommendations were excellent, and even so, they managed to surpass them.
The guides are very kind, respectful and do everything to find the animals we want to see, even if we have to walk thousands of kilometers. They are also extremely punctual and well educated.
The hotel directions were magnificent, with unique service.
At first it seems expensive to pay per day and per person for the safari, since my currency is devalued, but when we got there, we saw that it is very fair for everything that it includes and for the work of everyone involved in the organization.
I recommend the company with my eyes closed, and for sure our experience in Kenya and Tanzania was the best, because we went with Spirit of Kenya.
Just perfect!!!
