Efficient, organised and friendly
This is my second time using Beacon Safaris and Robert and his team exceeded my expectations yet again. The communication is so easy and efficient and when you get there everything is organised so well. Johnny was our guide yet again and his knowledge on the animals and their behaviour still amazes me. More than that however he is a fantastic human being and makes the expirence so much better. I'm sure I will visit Kenya or Tanzania again and will only book with Beacon Safaris. That is guaranteed. Thank you Robert and Johnny for organising a brilliant experience for my family and I.

utterly sublime
Simply the best. Almost a biblical encounter. Victor, our safari guide, is a legend. I've travelled through Serengeti ecosystem many times but nothing could surpass this experience.

Nakuru Mara Safari Was beyond our Expectation
It was a safari that we wanted to enjoy from the word go, but John took us to another level which exceeded our expectation. John keeps his words and is always very available and reliable incase of anything.
Our 5 days safari was well planned from day one to end and this gave us another reason to go back to Kenya.
Thank you Cheetah Safaris

I will return!
Quest Horizon was very easy to work with; Naiman was extremely accommodating in answering my never-ending questions. My guide Okul was very helpful and knowledgeable, going beyond his scope of duty to make me feel comfortable and welcome in Tanzania and to tell me more about the country's culture. We saw great sights (a lion hunt, the wildebeests crossing the Mara...etc) and also got a chance to visit the Maasai, watch soccer in a local pub and visit a local home, which was really interesting to see.
I got an experience of not just safari (which was more than amazing on its own already), but a country with its rich heritage, culture and practices. It was an excellent 9 days spent with Quest Horizon and I look forward to returning with them someday!

Our first safari in Africa
This was our first safari trip in Africa, my husband and I chose Tanzania and we booked through Mwema Africa Safaris agency. We wanted to see as much as possible, especially to have a good diversity of nature and animals so we chose 6 days tour, starting in Tarangire, then spent two nights in Serengeti, one in Ngorongoro crater, finishing in lake Manyara. My communication with Mr Mwema was perfect, I had millions of questions (as it was first trip of this kind and I was very much involved in every aspect of the planning). The tour was flexible and I could add or change things (such as flights, accomodations especially in Arusha - there was no problem at all). Our guide was Osman (collaborating agency from Arusha as Mwema is based in Nairobi), amazing guy and great character as well. We wanted to see the big 5, so he really did his best to look for the animals and we managed to see them. Accommodations were great everywhere, we especially liked tented lodge (with en suite bathroom) in a camp in Serengeti savanna! That was the highlight of our trip. Staff in the camp was extraordinary, food, environment, everything. The camp is situated in the middle of savanna and animals walk free around it - you can see and hear them. I recommend warmly Mr Mwema and his collaborators in Tanzania. We hope to come back for Kilimanjaro hike next year.

Highly recommended
I can wholeheartedly recommend Shemeji. We had a great experience with them from the first email contact, through to booking, arrival and the Safari itself. All very professionally handled. We loved the trip: 6 day Safari for me and my husband, shared with two other people in a car. Our driver and guide Freddy was friendly, professional and helpful at all times, and also a very good driver.

Great lodging! Clear, effective communication. Unsatisfactory guide service.
We were very pleased with the open, clear, effective and frequent communication from BigFoot Adventures Kenya prior to and during our trip. We were more than impressed by our lodging accommodations at Mara Bush Camp! We highly recommend Mara Bush Camp to any future travelers planning to visit the Maasai Mara, Kenya! It surpassed our expectations! We loved the food, the service, the friendly, always smiling staff, the warm gestures like turning down our beds at night, pulling down the mosquito netting, warm water bottles in our beds, coffee served in our tent, clean, cozy and beautifully decorated tents, the scenery in and surrounding the camp, and much more! Our safari tour met expectations, and we were able to see all of the animals on our list! However, we were disappointed by our Guide's behavior at times -- he was frequently on his phone, making him distracted from us and our trip wishes. He was not good about communicating plans for our daily game drives, and he seemed disinterested by our private safari tour together. Overall, we give BigFoot Adventures Kenya a 4-star (Good) rating, but we would rate our lodging a 5-star (excellent) and our guide a 2-3-star (poor-average) rating.
