An experience like no other
I visited Tanzania with my partner and had a beautiful holiday together with the Footslopes & Tours team. They were very attentive people and provided excellent service during the safaris, both food, lodging and guide. Our guide was Becca, who gave us all the information we needed regarding animals and their customs and others. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara..and we saw the big five !!! Among other species such as zebras, giraffes, impalas, etc.
I recommend this tour company a 100%. It was the best vacation of our lives !!

3 days on safari in Masai Mara
There are so many options when selecting a safari company in Kenya, and my friends and I were so happy with our choice with African Suburbs Adventure. From the prompt communication with Lamech when organizing our trip to when our safari came to an end, we for sure never regretted going with African Suburbs Adventure!!!
Samuel our guide was prompt and reliable, and quickly put us at ease and went over all me and my friends could expect and would need to know, and while he had things amazingly under control, he was always open to being flexible with the plan.
Samuel has many years of experience and knows the roads, the parks and all the people we came across. Besides that Samuel is also amazing with animal spotting. It was him finding most of the animals, giving us some time, and then calling other guides who were not having as much luck. We saw everything we hoped to including leopards, and both white and black rhinos.
A big thank you to Lamech and Samuel - me and my friends had such a wonderful time, and we will be in touch when we will be back in Kenya, and we will not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and people we know!!! Thanks for a great and wonderful time in Kenya!

It was an amazing experience in all facets
I found the Africa on Foot camp so wonderful. The staff were fantastic, I liked the fact that we blended into the surroundings (the cabins and layout)without the five star fanfare. And the food was very good without being lavish, satisfying and plenty of it. The size of the groups was also very enjoyable.
I saw four out of five of the big ones, no elephants sadly but I had seen them on my previous trip in their natural habitat.
I did a walking tour which was amazing, I learnt so much. No one else wanted to walk so it was just the guide and myself. We didn’t see any big animals, I had already seen them the previous day, but I learnt a lot about critters, the trees, the patterns of the animals.
I really had a wonderful experience with nothing to criticise.

Amazing experience going through the nort of Kenya
Our crew Godie and James did a great job showing us the beatiful north of Kenya. Our personal highlight was going through Chalbi and Lake Turkana. Also the food was super delicious amazing African meals and fresh fruits every day! We will be back for one of their other trips!

Great Budget Masai Mara Safari
Arrived on a very early flight and was able to start a 3day Masai Mara safari the same day. Airport pickup, was brought to a house nearby to rest for a couple of hours and shower, then driven to the centre of Nairobi to join the other tour members. Communication was excellent prior to my arrival and everything ran smoothly. The safari itself was amazing, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hippos, elephants, cape buffalo, wildebeest, ostriches, hyenas, jackals & many other animals and birds our driver was able to somehow spot and identify. As it was low season I had my own huge tent in our camp for two nights, the food was also excellent & there was plenty of it (buffet-style).
The only downsides were a German couple in our van who stayed at a more upmarket camp far from ours, we spent a bit of time making the bumpy journey over there to pick them up every time, but our driver made up for lost time by staying longer in the park. Also beware that the last 70km or so in the van to get to the camp are on probably the worst road I have ever been on in my life, but for the price of this tour it's worth putting up with.

Very good experience
Great experience at a quite affordable price. They pick you up at the border. They are very responsible and help you with everything, from equipment rent to hotel booking. I strongly recommend to count with them!

Encounters with gorillas a must
Our tour which covered both Uganda and Rwanda, was quite big - 14 days which dragged on with little to do. The highlights were definitely the gorilla and chimpanzee encounters. I wouldn't recommend the national parks in Uganda as very little to see. Make sure your tour guide is experienced and has knowledge of the area and animal tracking.
