Amazing 3 Days Maasai Mara Safari
My family had such a memorable safari experience to Maasai Mara.
We had an opportunity to see the Big Five animals during the game drive. Our Driver guide was professional plus the whole planning and execution by Humphrey is highly recommended.
Our Stay at Sarova Mara was epic with such magical views of the Mara Plains. The Accommodation, meals and staff were really friendly.
I highly recommend Africa Kenya Safaris for their professional service and looking forward to go on another safari with them.

Awesome Trip
LaMara put together a great luxury safari for me. Hit Amboselli the Nakura...3 nights 4 days.
Our driver tour guide Nelson was the best...aka Kevin Hart from Jumanji....Nice toytoa truck safari....Nelson knows his stuff and is great at finding animals....We scored Lions both days in Amboslli...the bomb....The elephants are incredbile in Amboselli....
Is a long haul to Nakura from Amboselli so dont know if I would recommend the 1 night in Nakura. But i didnt mind...saw rhinos there....Both lodges o takai and ziwa in nakura were great.. waking up to the plains sunrise...nice....book the luxury...you only live once...
Office staff excellent also....thanks LaMara...

Nice, experienced guys!
We got all the big five! That is the most important! On the other hand we got all we need: nice food, safe cars, natures beauties, campsite experiences.

A wonderful safari tour operator that catered to our requirements for a sensational experience.
We had originally planned our trip with Wild Secret Safari for 2020, but things didn't quite work out as planned. They were very accommodating and we were finally able to get the trip done in December 2021. They arranged everything for us, including pick up and drop off at the airport. They knew where to go and we got a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness all the abundant natural beauty of Tanzania and the Serengeti. They arranged the hotel stays and all of them were above par, comfortable, and enjoyable stays (even in the middle of the Serengeti).

Find another company to book with!
We choose to go with Douglas, but I hope my review will help you to choose better.
We've booked with him 2 way transfers from the airport in Nairobi to our accomodation, one trip to Nairobi National Park, Giraffe center and Elephant Orphanage.
When we arrived at the airport no one was there waitting for us, even if one day before we reconfirm with him the time of our flight. We had to ask someone in the airport to call him. We waitted for more than an hour with our one year old baby for him to send someone to pick us up.
We ve payed for everythig to his colegue/employee Alex. The day we left we agreed with him to be at 7 30 to take us to the airport. He texted me at 7 20 that he arrived....but at 7 50 there was no sign of him in front of the building. I called him but he rejected my calls. Then he wrote he was lost... how can you text me you have arrived and half an hour later to be lost?! Lies and more lies...
We had to take uber and pay againg to get in time at the airport not to miss our flight. When I ve asked him for refund of 20$ we ve payed and didn t get the service, he said he ll pay only half. He told us he didn t find the adress I ve sent him...but his colegue one day before picked up us from the same place.
NEVER PAY BEFORE THE SERVICE IS DONE!!! AND THE BAD PART IS THAT HE IS THE CEO/OWNER OF THIS COMPANY.
I M SORRY DOUGLAS,I HOPE THAT 20$ REALLY HELPS YOU, BUT SOMETIMES IS NOT ALL ABOUT MONEY

We loved it
Everything was perfectly organized the accomodation, the food and the safari itself
Our driver was a pro he was able to explain everything about the different species
He was determined to make us see the big five and we had fun during the entire trip
It’s my first time doing a safari and I highly recommend Topy Tour ! I’m still amazed
Thank you for everything

Very well organized private safari
We are very happy that we choose KingTomondo for our safari! We first had a one day tour to Shimba hills and then a four day tour to Tsavo East, Amboseli and Ziwani.
Our driver Said was very experienced in finding animals and we always felt confident. We hope we can go with him again in the future!
We fully recommend KingTomondo and Said for a great safari. We really had wonderful days!

Great Service, Amazing Communication, High Standards
We used the services of Shemeiji Safari for our honeymoon trip at the end of 2021. We chose the provider for a good value/price ratio, a itinerary meeting our expectations and great reviews. The pre-trip communication was clear, smooth and transparent. The Shemeiji employees were replying swiftly to our inquiries (thank you once again Emma and Anna!). There was flexibility about the payment (only a small pre-payment) which we highly appreciated in the uncertain times of Covid. Shortly before our departure we received a summary of all relevant information and contacts which was very helpful.
The trip itself was an amazing experience. Joseph, the guide and driver, was very friendly, fun to spend time with, helpful and very knowledgeable. He was always making sure we were enjoying our trip and that we were not in need of anything. He accommodated all our requests (like leaving a bite sooner/later, passing by a shop or ATM etc.). He was extremely good at sensing and spotting the game and thanks to him we saw many more animals than we expected. Asante sana, Joseph!
The accommodation was great too. We chose the Comfort 7 day trip option so we stayed in tents with ensuite bathrooms. The tents are more glamping than camping so we had lots of comfort after the long days. Shemeiji is a part of Paradise and Wilderness Group, a Dutch owned company owning also most of the accommodation we stayed in. As the companies are integrated, everything passed really smoothly and keeping a high European standard.
There are few minor things to improve (for example the food can get very repetitive) but these were only minor issues.
Overall, we had a great experience with Shemeiji and I can only recommend their services!
