8 night Kenya/Tanzania Safari - lovely!
We spent 8 nights on safari in Kenya and Tanzania with IKAT. and had a great experience overall. We had a custom tour with a private guide/driver the entire time just for my wife and I. We had 3 guides on the trip and they all took good care of us. We saw all the animals except leopards. We got very close to lions, elephants, giraffes, hyenas, hippos, crocodiles and we saw the wildebeest migration in Masai Mara and Serengeti. We chose all of our own camps and lodges and Francis organized everything for us. He was always quick to respond to our emails and we had Whatsapp communication with him before and during the trip. Everything we needed was taken care of. Ngorngoro Crater was our favorite place, but we enjoyed every stop!

My best hotel experience so far
We stayed three nights at Tremisana Lodge.
The staff was very welcoming. In that hotel there is not the typical division between guests and staff. You live there together, eat together and talk together about the animals and last sightings. I reallly enjoyed that.
Furthermore the rangers really love their job and do their best to find as much animals as possible. They are very well trained.
The food is typical South African an homemade. We loved it so much.
The beds with its down blankets are amazing.
I fell in love with the bush and really miss the lodge.

Safari was great. Food was very bad at Masai Mara and on road.
James was an excellent guide and driver and took us to the deep interiors of Masai Mara to ensure that we could see all the Big 5. Lake nakaru was a bit disappointing as the hoards of Flamingos expected were not there and we should have been informed earlier. Gorge walk and water safari in Lake Naivasha were interesting.
However the food at Masaia Mara especially the dinner was really of very poor quality. At Nakaru and Naivasha it was better.
All in al a memorable experience but do something about Board arrangements.

Met my holiday expectations
We had a long communication before I settled on the offers and after my 6 days trip in Kenya Maasai mara , Lake Nakuru and Amboseli with onward Kilimanjaro trek my expectations were all met.
The service was well organised.

Amazing experience with fantastic driver/guide, never to be forgotten
When I talked to Benson he told me he was the kid on the side of the road who wanted to grow up and drive that Safari truck. Well he did and more, he has created a company in his country with fellow Tanzanians and shows it to anyone who wants to view it with gusto. Our driver Peter was fantastic, we at all times were safe, treated with the highest regard, given a wealth of information about everything people, places, landmarks, animals. This trip was never on my bucket list, however because of my sister in law and the Benson Safaris team, it has become a trip of a lifetime.

He has a perfect knowledge of the place and the fauna and really knows how to spot the animals.
Also it is to mention that Roger have made this trip very safe and very enjoyable for all the family.
We hope to renew this experience soon !

Simply Fantastic
Cuan was referred to us by our daughter who had used African Ubuntu Safaris the pervious year. From the start his planning, communication and advice was first rate. We can't speak highly enough of the service he provided and, above all, the specific recommendations he put together based on our discussions with him. We are so glad we accepted all his recommendations - the visit to Victoria Falls, the houseboat and the Game Lodge on the Chobe River and then a magic three nights at Shinde Camp in the Okavango Delta. Everything ran like clockwork, including his father, Gerald meeting us in Jo'burg to look after our extra luggage until our return from the safari. The service Cuan and Gerald provided exceeded all our expectations and it was delivered with both professionalism and genuine interest. If you are considering a safari, you can't do better than African Ubuntu.

Trip of a lifetime!
Sadik our guide and Tito our chef teamed up to give us a trip of a lifetime! It started late Sunday night when much to our surprise, after our flight was delayed ~7 hours, Sadik was still waiting at the Kilimanjaro airport to take us to our lodge. From there we hit up Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. We saw all the wildlife the parks had to offer and learned a lot from Sadik along the way. And despite camping in the bush, Tito served up gourmet, multi-course meals. We did a lot of research on safari company options and are so happy with our choice. Easy Travel is a great value (it was much cheaper than other options).

Wonderful experience made possible by great people.
The experience not only lived up to my expectations but exceeded it. The price range was at par with the services provided and the few hiccups were quickly ironed out rather efficiently. I since recommended it to a few friends who had nothing but praise for the communication and accomodations that they were given. I will for sure utilize their services again.
