very good with communications
The email correspondent with Edith was very professional. She was very fast and patient with all my questions.
This is the only tour operator that offered a very fair price for the 5 days safari that I wanted to do. Moses, my driver was very knowledgeable, hard working and a very good and safe driver. The hotel chosen for me to stay in was nice. I definitely liked the Rushaga Gorilla camp as it is a fairly new hotel and the village was nearby. The food was very good, I just wished that full board means drinks like juice/tea/coffee should be included in the meal. Only thing I didn't like was the method of payment. I should be able to pay with my credit card online and not having an unsecured way of payment such as sending a wire bank transfer. In the end I payed by credit card but I called Edith via whatsapp to give out the number which I was skeptical about, but it all went well. I would not hesitate to book with Ansima Safaris again.

Compass Odyssey gave us an awesome experience and we had no worries about arrangements.
Darren & Kate we very helpful throughout the whole planning stage and when it came time for our trip. Senalala in Greater Kruger was a faboulos place with top notch guides. All the transports and guides were very informative and friendly. Safaris in Kruger and Chobe gave you pretty much an up front and center seat for the greatest wild animal show you’ll ever see. Everybody should go to Africa at least once in their life time.

Amazing experience with great friendly guides, accommodation, food
Ask for David as safari guide. He is awesome, funny, and very knowledgeable. Also ask for Action as a chef. He made killer food for us every meal! Geofrey was also fantastic with email communication throughout the whole process.
David is the Lion King!!!!- he made us count more than 100+ lions in the wild. amazing!

An unforgetable experience with a guide/ driver with excellent knowledge about the nature.
We went to the Manyara park, the Ngorongoro crater and the Tarangiri park in 3 days.
We had a great guide/ driver; Loi. His knowledge about the nature and surroundings in the parks was incredible. He explained a lot of things without us having to ask. And if he didn’t know the answer, he looked it up in the book with all the species in it. He anticipated our wishes about when to stop. And, important to me; he had a great sense of humor!
He is also a very defensive driver, so really ‘pole pole’!
The owners are very friendly and they are taking good care of the clients. The communication, oral and written was clear and informative. I didn’t know what to expect, but I felt comfortable with this treatment.
The tours itself were impressive, beautiful birds to watch and wonderful views. We’ve seen the ‘big five’. The lodges were nicely picked, especially the place where we started from in Arusha and the one with tents was awesome.
I’d love to come again some day.
Keep up your splendid work!

Simply Stunning Serengeti Safari!
The trip was brilliantly organised by Alym and clearly communicated at all times in the lead up to the trip. He provided good advice on the itinerary and how long to stay in each location etc, providing a balance of accommodations to perfectly suit our request and requirements. He even "arranged" for 3 leopard sightings, not to mention an unforgettable lion pride with cubs on simba rocks.
Our guide, Frank, was faultless and must be credited for his animal sightings (spotted a rhino with his bare eyes at about a kilometre distance!), manners and all round performance.
The overall safari and trip to Zanzibar was pretty much faultless and we would definitely recommend East Africa Wild to others - if we go again we will be specifically requesting Frank as our guide.

Amazing
We had an amazing experience with able safari, our driver was the best, and Uganda is really worth a visit. i cam only give this my warmest recommendations
Perfect introduction to Kenya
Me and my gf had an amazing time, saw all the big 5 and a lot more. Our guide Isaac was friendly and always happy to help.
the accommodation at the maasi mara fitted the experience perfectly and situated within walking distance of a Maasi camp, which was interested but as a warning if you visit the camp they will pressure you into buying things. But that's just the camp not Axis.
All in all the entire trip was amazing and was truly a highlight of our trip

Very responsive service
I used East Africa Shuttles and Safaris services for a quick tour to Amboseli after doing the Kilimanjaro climb. They custom made the itinerary to my needs and I needed to do some changes after initial booking and they responded very quickly. The hotel, Amboseli Kibo camp was excellent and didn't have any trouble in the transport connections (Moshi to Arusha to Namanga to Amboseli). I would recommend East Africa Shuttles to anyone.

Good value for money
This trip was just great! The communication prior the safari was effortless and easy. The transport was on time, comfortable and very convenient. The accommodation and food were simple, but very nice. I will say that for this cost, we were impressed. I recommend!
