Masai Mara Dec 2016
We were a family of 8 That took the three day safari package. Eventhough They recommended 7 to ride in the car it did not feel crowded for us. Our driver, Evans came and picked us up at the appointed time. We made a few stop on our way to the Masai Mara. The campsite was well equipped and rustic. All food was included in the price but the beverages was not. If you want to visit the Masai village remember to bring money. There is nothing to complain about the safari, our driver did everything So THAT we would experience as mush as possible. When we drove back to Nairobi, he went beyond and made a few extra stops so that we could run a few errands.

had great fun in our 4-day trip, wish we could come back again
Thanks to our smart driver Nasarri, we had a great time during the 4-day safari tour (although it could be much better if we were provided binoculars), and our best memory might be the day in Serengeti - lovely animals during game drive, and beautiful sky full of stars at night which happened to be Christmas Eve. Best Christmas Eve (and Christmas day) ever in my life.

Exploring Kenya at Affordable Prices and Quality Service
We had a wonderful time in Kenya, thanks to TravelForChange team and especially Carlos (our driver and guide). We planned a 7 Night 8 Day tour - Amboseli-Nakuru-Masai Mara-Naivasha
Patricia and her team patiently helped us customize our itinerary in the initial phase. Everything was well executed - Pick Up/Drop, Hotel Bookings, Food, Safari Bookings, Park Fee etc.
All you have to do is reach the airport and everything is taken care of. We didn't have to worry about anything in terms of logistics.
I do have some Important Suggestion for those who plan to book with TravelForChange or other Tour Operators -
1. Ensure your Driver is also your guide and understands the bush better than you do. We got lucky as we have a wonderful guide. You have to remember that you will spend most of your time with the driver/guide. Please ensure you discuss this point in detail with the tour operator. Clarify Safari Timings before you sign the contract.
2. If you are doing Kenya only - You may skip Nakuru and Naivasha. Even if you have to travel longer by road, make sure you spend most of your time in Amboseli or Mara. If your budget permits, transfer by light aircraft between parks. The road to Masai Mara is badly maintained (Approx 150Km Stretch)
3. If your budget permits, try to book a lodge/tent inside the park.
On the whole everything was well arranged, accommodation in Amboseli - Kibo Safari Camp, Nakuru - Ziwa Bush Lodge and Naivasha - Naivasha Sopa Lodgewere brilliant. Wajee (in Masai Mara) was basic but very close to wilderness, we liked it but I think it could’ve been a little better.
We are very happy with our experience and we will definitely go back to Travel for Change Africa for our next Holiday in East Africa.

Professional organization
Special thanks to Eric who helped us to organize the trip according to our wishes.
Our guide Joshua was just great! Very polite, told us about the country, culture and animals.
When we started to prepare the safari tour we tried 6 difference safari agencies and I can confirm that Jocky Tour is the best!

Well planned and executed family safari
After a bit of online research we contacted Hamadi at Face of Africa Adventures to help plan a safari for my wife, 8yr old son and me. Hamadi was very patient and helpful in recommending various lodging options and game drives to meet our desires. After putting together a plan that met our budget Hamadi provided a long list of previous clients as references before the down payment was made and there was nothing but rave reviews. The end result was a perfectly executed safari, from Hamadi and George (our guide/driver) meeting us at the airport to our game drives in Serengeti/Ndutu (saw the great migration), Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire and the private Manyara Ranch Conservancy (where we sat 10m from to a pride of lions, with 2 cubs in an open vehicle having a sundowner for over an hour).

We had an amazing time - everything was wonderful.
I enjoyed the whole experience and would highly recommend Wild Planet Safaris. We saw loads of amazing animals and enjoyed the camps we visited in Kruger National Park. The accommodation was good and I loved having the meals included. The vehicle was very comfortable and clean. Everything was taken care of very well and made for a super experience. Many thanks to the staff of Wild Planet Safaris.
