Excellent service from the initial enquiry and throughout the safari.
5/5

I had originally asked for the Mara Serena lodge but it was unavailable for the dates required. Equivalent accommodation was very quickly proposed and arranged. The driver Moses was very knowledgable and was also able to network with other drivers during the safari to find the best viewing opportunities. We were able to view different prides of lion including one pride feasting on a kill and fending off jackels. We also saw the 5 brothers cheetah family and had an excellent leopard sighting. Moses covered vast areas of the Mara to maximise our viewing opportunities . Some other companies' drivers went off the tracks to gain viewing but Moses respected the rules of the park and our viewings were excellent due to his positioning of the vehicle and knowledge of how the animals moved. This was particularly noticeable when we stopped a short distance from a herd of elephants but another vehicle went too close and was warned off by the matriarch. The accommodations were both very nice, particularly the Ashnil camp on the Mara river with its resident banded mongoose and bushbuck. from the lodge we could view hippos, crocs and waterbuck at various times in the river and on the opposite banking. I would travel with Arkman in the future.

Excellent holiday planned and tailor-made for us by rightchoicesafaris.com
5/5

This was our first trip to Kenya. One of our best holidays ever! We would most definitely recommend Right Choice Tours & Safaris.
Kenyans are so welcoming & friendly. Always smiling!
The wildlife is like no other. We got up close & personal with the animals. In the 4x4, we toured Amboseli & Masai Mara. A wonderful experience!
The weather was warm, clear & sunny... what more can one want.
A brilliant way to see animals in their natural habitat.
We watched sunrise & sunset, beautiful & picturesque! We photographed animals with sunrise & sunset...a sight to behold! It’s forever imprinted in memory!
The accommodation was brilliant! Clean, excellent room service, friendly staff. Buffet meals three times a day, hot well prepared food, lots of choice! Just amazing!
Our safaris guides were brilliant! We had Emmanuel for Amboseli & he drove us around endlessly & patiently.
For Masai Mara we had Ruben, who was great. He was very well informed & took us around to all the spots. We’ve never seen so many beautiful animals before!
Other highlights- Balloon safari was a unique experience! We watched the sunrise & animals from above!
We spent half a day on boat safari on lake Naivashu, saw hippos, beautiful unique birds.. Anthony & Nick were great! We walked around crescent island with the herbivores... just amazing!
We spent an entire day in Hells gate! What an experience! We cycled for 20km, we hiked in the gorge, saw ‘devils bedroom’..... the hot springs... did rope climbing, scaled the highest point..
Joseph our guide for the day was brilliant...
Overall, a wonderful experience, many thanks to George from Right choice in putting together this amazing itinerary... a truly memorable trip...

Tanzania choice safaris was well organized friendly and comfortable
5/5

I was amazed at The number of details Tanzania choice safaris managed. We especially enjoyed getting to know all of our borders and guides. We feel like they have become friends for life. They took all factors in mind and made it possible for 21 of us to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. It was a massive effort and great fun. Everything they arranged was perfect for us. I highly recommend them.

Let down
3/5

When I had made my booking, I had specified that I needed a driver/guide who had knowledge of local birds.
The vehicle provided was a below average vehicle. Lots of noise and smell. The driver a good man but not so knowledgeable about birds. There was not even a reference book for birds. Even worse was he was on the phone for a long time due to which he was not engaging with me.
A trip to Africa is probably once a lifetime to many people. The tour operators needs to respect that and ensure proper service.

Fantastic experience with our guide George
5/5

We had safari with our guide George. His goal was to make sure that we saw as many different animals as possible. On our first drive we saw elephants, giraffes, many buffalos, zebras and also cheetahs. On the next day his focus was searching for rhinos, lions and leopards. Because of his efforts we got to see all the big five.  George told us captivating stories about animals and their behavior. This made the game viewing that much more fun. We hope to come back next year.

Our second African safari with Giltedge and another excellent experience with them.
5/5

We worked with Sandi Bird of Giltedge. This was our 2nd African safari planned with her expertise. This time we went to Botswana for the incredible wildlife. Sandi was flexible with our requirements and proposed a fantastic itinerary for us. Everything worked out very well in the end and this allowed us to fully enjoy a worry free safari. Her itinerary allowed us to see and experience a range of environments and habitats in Botswana that maximised our time and wildlife encounters in this amazing country. Charter flight transfers between camps were seamless and hassle free. We would not hesitate to recommend Sandi of Giltedge Africa to any of our friends and in fact we do plan on traveling to Africa again in future with Giltedge.

Personable, down to earth, warm, funny and accommodating.
5/5

The staff are just all-around terrific. They are very accommodating and so well liked. They make you feel like family. Always having your safety in mind and able to answer any questions that you may have. I’ve never been on a vacation with happier people than those at Go Touch Down. Your days are full and your evenings delightful!
I went on Safari and was very pleased from beginning until end. I did not want to leave! Definitely worth the trip and affordable as well.

Amazing Images
5/5

I have been on many safaris.  My favorite animal photos come from evening sunset drives. I’m able to capture so much more my professional cameras than you can with an iPhone. The end results were well worth the extra effort hauling my equipment around.
