9 Day Kenya & Tanzania Safari
We had an incredible safari experience through Baboon Budget Safaris. Everything was well organized with Dennis and the process went flawlessly. We thought the safari was an amazing value for the amount and we were able to do everything we wanted on our trip. The 9 day safari was basically a 3-day Kenya safari and a 4-day Tanzania safari with transportation between included. We would highly recommend this safari and this company to anybody looking!

Kilimanjaro + Safari
We arranged our trip to Tanzania with BMS for 6 days of Kilimanjaro (Machame) and 5 days of Safari (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, Manyara national parks).
The price we had was overall reasonable in comparison to other companies and they generally took care of us well considering we were budget travellers.
Only problem we had was tipping after Kilimanjaro which is not related with company actually but only with porters, and do not believe what you read online otherwise you are expected to be paying 300 USD which is crazy.
BMS is a good company and we can recommend to anyone. (Especially ask for the guide named ''Elias'', an experienced, genuine guy makes your trips more enjoyable.

Outstanding, friendly and professional.
My safari with Frank was amazing. The itinerary was impeccably planned and highly detailed.
Frank is exceptional. He has an extensive knowledge of Uganda and its people and culture.
In addition to mammals, Frank is fascinated by birds.
He is always friendly, with a good sense of humor, incredibly organized and a very responsible driver.
Thank you, Frank, for this unforgettable experience. I had a wonderful vacation and I still enjoy it every day.
I can highly recommend Frank Tours Uganda to all of you!

The best I ever had
I would first like to thank Mr Ndamungu for his professionalism and our guide Samwel , without them this trip would not have had the same and it is thanks to their devotion vouyage it will remain for us as good and wonderful memories. We liked Tanzania as much for its scenery, national parks but also for its people. They are very likeable people. The visit to the Maasai village of Longuido was perfect, far from villages turned into marketing to tourists, the guide Loy Tribe Datoga Hadzabe and was perfect (clear explanations person invests in his work). The different tribes gave us a taste of change of scenery,(Tarangire, Lake Mannyara, Serengheti and Ngorongoro) are wonderful, we had the chance to see a lioness hunting and thanks to our guide , the big five was assured. The lodges were very comfortable, the food very good and excellent. We returned the head filled with beautiful and good memories. Thank you

Excellent safari
It was 6 nights safari, we visited Samburu, Aberdare, Amboseli, Tsavo West. James
has offered us the best price for this week. We started from Nairobi and finished in Diani beach. Everything was perfect! We saw almost all animals, even leopard 2 times - in Samburu and Tsavo West. Was no any problem, all that James promiced and wrote in contract - have been done. Our driver Jackson was very good guide, After rest on Diani beach we had short 1 day safari in Nairobi National Park, here we met white and black rhino. i recommend travel in Kenya with them, they are honest people and do the best that everything was pleasant to you.

We would recommend Pembury Tours to all and sundry
We read reviews of various tour companies before deciding on Pembury Tours. This was the best decision. Our expectations were high when we made the booking and these expectations were well and truly exceeded. We had so much confidence in our advisor, Laurette McKinnon at Pembury Tours, that we felt Laurette was on the tour with us. The tour went so well that my wife had tears in her eyes when the tour ended.
We sincerely wish Laurette and the team at Pembury Tours all the best and success in the future.

Excellent climbing and safari trip
When we arrived at the airport Edward picked us up and brought us to the wonderful Ilboru Safari Lodge. The next day we met our guide for the climbing of Mount Meru. Everything was perfectly arranged by Magda and Edward. After this trip we visited a number of national parks with a guide who took us everywhere and gave us a lot of information. Both guides were well informed, kind, reliable, taking good care of everything. After these trips we planned to do some other things (Zanzibar). Flash safari's helped us organising this, you can ask them anything, they have a lot of contacts!
Before we arrived in Tanzania the contact with Magda by email was perfect, all our questions were answered very quickly . She is very pro-active!
The trips really met our expectations. The climbing of Mount Meru was difficult but the views are spectacular. The safari's were impressive, far beyond our expectations. Everything was very well organised.
We can really recommend Flash Safari's! Magda, Edward, thanks for the wonderful experience.

Great Safari
We were so lucky to find out Baboon safari here. Mr. Dennis did great job to arrange our trip. Great communication before we arrive Nairobi. Our guide and driver, Mr. Dugan, was really nice and experienced. We saw big 5 and many other animals. Our trip is budgeted, but the camp was not too bad. Wee met lots of friends there. One thing I have to say was that my friend forgot her wallet at the hotel, and they help to find it without any valued missing, and even bring it to our next camp for us. We were really satisfied with their service and enjoyed the trip, will definitely choose them if we come to Africa.

Best trip we have taken. The guide made it unforgettable
I am extremely pleased we booked with Red Africa Safaris. We had a great time and will book with them again in an instant. Our trip included the scenic panoramic route, a trip to Kruger National Park, and a visit to multiple animal rescues. Red Africa Safaris makes sure the companies they work with are ethical and have a focus on wildlife conservation. It was a good feeling to know all of the businesses through this trip were treating their animals well and releasing back into the wild when possible.
What really made our trip special was our guide who joined us from the moment we got off the plane until we departed. He drove us from location to location, told us about the creatures we were seeing, helped us track wildlife we wanted to see, cooked several meals for us, helped us spot animals, taught us a ton about the bush and it's creatures and answered all of our questions. He was extremely knowledgeable regarding any topic we wanted to know more about. We would often to stop so he could explain plant life, local birds, any animal we saw, the history of what we were seeing, geographical features, conservation efforts and even current day Africa. It is fun to look for the big 5, but it was often just as interesting to learn more about the birds or plants. In the end it was like we were traveling with a good friend not just a guide.
The animal rescues were an awesome addition to our trips into the bush. You are given the opportunity to get up close and personal with the animals you saw in the wild. Some of our highlights were walking with lions, getting a kiss from elephants, petting an eagle, and having a monkey ride on our shoulder. It also was great to see some animals that are harder to see in the bush like painted dogs.
Book your holiday with these Red Africa Safaris. They make sure you have a great time and work with a focus on ethical conservation.
