Excellent service and safari with landslide !!
Landside Adventures is a top notch safari company that will ensure you get the best safari ever! I travelled with my fiance and we firstly had a 2 days trek on Kilimanjaro going to Mandara Hut (Base Camp of Kilimanjaro) and down again the next day. Great experience with a really good guide who took good care of us. And we had several people carrying our food and other stuff to the place for us a well. Nice experience and a must for me to go back to go to the top of Kilimanjaro! :)
After Kilimanjaro we went on a 6 days safari and had a great experience! Stayed and some fantastic lodges and camps out on the savanah right there with the animals. Serengeti kati kati tented camp is really an amazing place, just imagine having your own flushing toilet and hot and cold shower - Out in the middle of nowhere! Food was great as well.
We really like the guides of Landside Adventures, they are both really humble and friendly whereas when you see some of the guides from other companies they seem more of the Sales" type of guides talking too much, aggressive and so.
Another thing that i really like about Landside Adventures is that it is a locally owned company so you really support the local community by using Landside Adventures rather than using some of the foreign owned companies where the profits goes out of the country.

An amazing week-perfectly planned and full of incredible experiences!
We had a wonderful week in Uganda and Rwanda in November, 2016. Our time we spent there was filled with incredible impressions and great experiences- a once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
The tour was exactly customized and it was planned perfectly- from the beginning to the end.
Our guide Milton was very attentive, friendly, had a very large knowledge and was always open for our questions. We felt all the time very well cared and we would always choose Around Africa Safaris again!
Thank you so much!

Wonderful safari life for my family
Wonderful safari life for my family
My wife, 5 years old boy, 2 years old girl and I visit Kenya and did 8 days Safari.
That was so nice safari and everything is adhered to all our wishes. We believe Kenya Safari Arcade is best Safari tour company in Kenya. I negotiate several company with my plan. Most company provide us a very good rate. However, Kenya Safari Arcade give us amazing price. I did not believe at that time.
However, they give us a hotel upgrade and private car tour for my family.
At first, we visit Mt. Kenya and stayed Serena Mountain Lodge. At this park, there are no game drive. But, we can see all animals from the hotel. This hotel face to water. Every animal come to drink water. This hotel has kids room and hotel staff take care of my kids during parents walking safari. All foods are so nice for my family. The hotel provides my kids a special menu. We are very satisfied all service.
Second day and 3rd day, we stayed Kenya Safari Arcade give us hotel upgrade to Ashnil Samburu. This is also very nice hotel. It located river and Elephant comes to drink water by the hotel. We can see big animals from hotel room.
Safari Driver also gives us a amazing experience during Safari tour. We request big 5 and rare animal. Driver always contact another driver and he realize us to have all requested animals. My kids really want to see a moment of hunting scene. Car driver fulfilled all our wishes.
4th day, Kanya Safari Arcade upgrade hotel again to Sweetwater’s Tented Camp.
It is so wonderful that I cannot express it by words. Car driver also guide us a fighting scene of rhinoceros and also take us a rhinoceros place that we can touch rhinos. Our kids were so exciting at that time.
At 5th day, we stayed Navisha Sopa lodge. Car driver provide us a boat safari. It takes 2 hours’ boat safari and we can get many Hippos.
6th and 7th day, this company upgrade Basecamp Masai Mara.
I cannot say anything about it. So wonderful, so nice and so amazing. Everything is over our expecting.
Few years ago, ex US Mr. President Obama stay this hotel too. All rooms are located face of river and in the jungle. At night time, many Carnivorous beast comes around the room. But, do not worry about this. Masai warrior guard all night time long. We can relax and sleep very well. At morning time, Awakened by the barks of lots of birds.
Masai hotel staffs provide a wonderful service include laundry and foods. We believe this is the best hotel at Masai Mara.
Kenya Safari Arcade gives us a free hotel upgrade.
We are fully recommending this company. I guarantee you will be 100% satisfied after Safari.
Minus point that we have, car is old and not 4wd. Sometimes, stack at bad road.
This is only one minor minus point.
If you need good price (reasonable), good service, nice game drive and good accommodation. We are fully suggesting you Kenya Safari Arcade.

Safari Way Exceeded My Expectations
I did not expect to have so much fun on this safari. From the pickup at the airport to the drop-off at the airport, the service provided by Seven By Far was excellent. Our Tour Guide, Nicholas was very professional and very knowledgeable on our tour. He knew the ins and outs of the national parks. We found the BIG 5 within 3 days into our tour. He gave us advice on shopping. We also had the opportunity to meet the owner, Sylvester Silas. He was very personable and at the same time professional. We had a blast on this tour that we are planning another one next year.

Perfect
Good service all the way and excellent guides’’
My friend and I hiked Mount Meru, went on Safari and had a day-tour in Arusha - all arranged by Landside Adventures and we've been more than happy with everything! Their service and guides are all top class. Special thanks to Faza, Elia and Elisante. Faza was our guide on Mount Meru and he took so good care of us all the way to the summit and down again. He is a really experienced guide and paced us perfectly through the entire trip + he is used to tourist like us, who underestimates the cold on the top, so he brought extra warm clothes for the both of us. Elia and Elisante was our guide and cook on safari and we had a very good time with them as well + amazing food from Elisante. For our safari we had ordered "budget safari", So overall an experience beyond the expected.

A friendly memorable 10-day gorilla trekking safari
We were referred to gorilla tour booking safaris from a friend who booked her gorilla trekking packed vacation a few years ago. We planned to do the same itinerary and was so fortunate to work with Ronald. We reached out to him with our available dates and requests, and he responded so quickly with a quote and options. Unfortunately, the lodge we had requested was not within our budget so we had to go with another.
The communication was so great, We did so many activities but the peak of journey was gorilla trekking. The night before the trek started, all we could dream about was to meet these strong, brave, and kind animals. In the morning, we couldn’t wait any longer because we were fully prepared. It’s an experience that even the movies I seen about the gorillas can’t really mimic so well. Everybody in this world needs to experience this adventure.

Best customer service
From start to finish the level of services we received was very interesting, this was the 1st time taking my small family to tanzania. Bright world safaris gave us what we expected and more our next challenge is Mount Kilimanjaro. In regards to communication I could not fault them whatsoever. Bless Tanzania.

Very responsive agency that proposes tailor made services
The safari tour was above expectations. The services provided by the agency are tailor-made, and the whole staff is caring.
A wide variety of hotels and lodges were proposed, the van driver amiable and helpful
I definitely recommend Wild Safaris!

Great trip!
Wild Destinations asked generally where I wanted to take my family, the timeline, and the price range. Then they arranged everything, from flights to lodging to transportation. Normally on these types of trips, I play tour guide because I live in the area. But because Wild Destinations had taken care of everything, I could relax and enjoy the trip with my family! Also, the tour guides and lodging that they set me up with were all great!
I like it and enjoyed a Lot
‘’Top Notch All Around!”
My first time to african safari trip and what a wonderful experience it was! Keddy was patient and responsive to emails. Competitive price. Top notch service all around from accomodation to vehicle to unlimited cold drinks. We stayed at the beautiful Burudika Manyara Wildlife Lodge in Manyara. Make sure you go to the lake and see thousands of pink flamingos. The Acacia Tented Camp is very nice and comfortable. We heard the lion roar in the middle of the night, very special. In Ndutu we encountered mother cheetah with her four cubs. Wow. Our driver, Beatus is highly knowledgeable, a real good driver and has an eagle eye to spot the animals. All in all, a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks, Keddy and team for making it so memorable!
