One Day Safari Nairobi National Park
My fiancée and I had a wonderful one-day-trip to the Nairobi National Park. Our tour guide was very friendly, told us a lot about the animals and brought us safely back to the hotel. It's great to have such a nice park that close to the city. Inside the park we saw three of the "big five" plus many other animals. It was definitely worth it.

Really nice people
We took a 3 day safari with swahili paradise tours. They were very helpfull when it came down to being picked up oustide arusha (no additional costs!). everything was just really personal, wich to me is really nice. One of the owners even called us afterwards to aks if everyting went ok en if we like it. I can really recomend this company! The price was one of the lowest compaired to other companies, but the whole trip doesnt differ much from the others.

Incredible experience
Saso Uganda were brilliant.Wilson was really helpful and arranged for me to go on a gorilla trek with only 2days notice! Everything went very smoothly and everyone was very friendly, helpful and professional. The gorillas were amazing- a real trip of a lifetime-so many thanks to Saso for sorting it all out so quickly and efficiently

Simply the best!
Our first trip to Africa, with the kids in 2014 was full of wonders. Luckily we had a great guide, Kobus. He knows all the stories, also some fun anecdotes and is very entertaining. Since he is a ranger too, we got to know all about the wildlife on our trip to Kruger where he managed to show us a large variety of animals.
As Kobus says:"you may leave Africa, but Africa never leaves you", so we started dreaming about going back the minute we got home. This time we were a bit more demanding and had a customized trip made for us. South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, .... all in a 16 day trip. The organization was impeccable, the guide (again) super, the trip a journey never to forget.
Kobus has become a dear friend and we hope to be back with him soon!

EarthLife made our safari my favourite part of our honeymoon!
My wife and I finished off our 2 month around-the-world honeymoon with a safari through EarthLife Expeditions, towards the end of the dry season last August for 8 nights.
Spoiler alert – our safari with EarthLife was my favourite part of the honeymoon too and was genuinely sad to leave!
We went through Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Serengeti Mara & Ngorongoro Crater.
From the beginning I thought Deo’s explanation and route planning was the best out of the half dozen operators that I contact, he countered my own ideas with great explanations and reasoning whereas other operators were just happy to agree with my suggestions. Why would I pay for an expert if not to get their opinion and input?
All of the accommodation he recommended were just perfect and beyond our expectations. We had a mix of luxurious lodges and tented camps, all of which had their charm. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay in the same places again next time I go! He knew exactly what my wife and I were after, I felt he was always on the same page as us.
Our guide was Agrey who was fantastic, had humor and sharp eyes. We saw the Big 5 and also multiple leopard and cheetah sightings, getting up and close with a few leopards and a cheetah too!
Did I mention that we also caught two Mara river crossings? Deo had the best instincts and he decided to go separate ways from the other two vehicles, which meant we were the only ones to catch that first crossing… amazing!
We did encounter a slight mechanical issue with the land cruiser but the roads are so rough and we weren’t stopped for more than 10 minutes as Agrey was practically a mechanic too! We always felt safe with him. Because the roads were very tough, we passed many other cars who had issues such as flat tires or had engine issues which meant they couldn’t move (Agrey stopped to lend them a hand, and we were glad to see that he’s such a gentleman and so helpful). All in all, our small breakdown that took only 10 minutes was not a big deal as it may just be down to luck.
Deo and Agrey made sure the lodges knew of our honeymoon so we received amazing service and special dinners with private fires! All staff at all lodges were simply amazing and we were so fascinated with their culture. Before our honeymoon ended, I was already planning our next safari! Looking forward to our next trip with EarthLife!
