Wonderfully organized Kenya tour by BigTime Safaris
I arranged my first Kenya(Africa) visit through BigTime Safaris. It was a seamless arrangement. Martha was really helpful from aiding us plan the tour to helping us with documentation. Right from landing at JKIA to leaving was a friendly & comfortable experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed Hell's Gate NP, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Balloon Safari over Mara, Nakuru reserve. The safari guides were very knowledgeable and experienced. Spotted the big 5, cheetahs, hippos, and almost saw a chase/kill !!!
Will surely recommend BigTime to everyone...
Cheers!

Northern Uganda Experience
We booked a private tour to north uganda, it was a great experience.
From organization to implemantation, all was perfect. We enjoyed the accomodations, the contact to the people, the wildlife and the countryside.
Special thanks to Sven (organization) and to our guide and driver David!

Incredible, unforgettable lifetime experience !
It's a risky task choosing a tour operator from all the options out there. The email exchanges with Ben however made it easy to choose E-Trip Africa. He and Aurelie was extremely responsive, dedicated and professional. We felt they would go the extra mile to make sure everything would work ut to fulfill our desires and satisfaction.
The tour became a success - to a large extent thanks to David and Eliamini, our two drivers. Two wonderful, friendly persons and excellent, knowledgable guides which we and particularly the 3 children got very fond of - they will be missed .
Ben, keep up the great work of transparency, humility and care that was extended to us throughout the safari.
I do not hesitate to recommend Ben and E-Trip Africa to friends and others.

amazing tours with fantastic impressions
Nevertheless I was travelling alone I find beautiful landscape with many animals in wildlife and a interesting knowledge about the people and their culture. We entered in one month four Nationalparks and learned so much about the life in some regions in Kenya. Thank you so much for incredible adventures also because of the engaging guiding of Joni and Martin. Hope to see the exciting country and the warmful persons again

Professionally organised, reliable, amazing experience, highly recommended
We booked our 12 day Masai Mara Nakuru Ambolis Tasvo East / West tour including the balloon ride more than 13 months in advance and with full payment. Of course we have been concerned a bit if the company would be reliable and if the trip would meet our expectations. To make it short, the journey was outstanding, excellent value for money, really a good experience. The correspondence with KWSS was professional, the staff very friendly. Our driver Benson was one of the best East African driver and at same time an excellent tour guide with a bride knowledge of plants and animals. Remarkable, he dit not need any road map on our 2 weeks tour of Kenya and it´s National parks. We recommend the KWSS company without any limitation, 5 stars!

Travelling with a higher purpose
I travelled with my teenage son and we both agreed on this being the best way of getting to know the culture and the country in the week we had to spend. We were picked up at Kilimanjaro airport Saturday night and brought to the Matunda village where we stayed for the first two nights. On the first day we got an introduction to the project Mr.Kaaya has built up there and saw the orphanage and the school. We then did a coffee tour and a walk with the very entertaining guide Innocence, which is highly recommendable in order to get to know the surroundings and the culture. Eating dinner with the children gave us the opportunity to get to know them a bit which was great- and because they are tough in english they all speak some.
On Monday we took off for a Safari for the whole week, which was beyond anything I had ever imagined. The set up was just perfect and we saw so many animals, so close by!
It felt like coming back home to return to the orphanage and we were so happy to spend our last night there, just wished we could have stayed longer.
To experience a tour operator with such a vision and pride in his work was truly inspiring and I can not recommend Peace Matunda highly enough for all those who want to make a positive impact on the local society while travelling.

Another amazing trip
This was my third booking with Cuan and I have to say that I wouldn't use anyone else. On my first trip when we explained what we wanted, he suggested the Masai Mara in Kenya, which turned out to be just perfect. He persuaded my friend & I that we could cope with tents rather lodges, and he was so right. Mind you, the 'tents' he found us were just a little above your usual camping! I'm talking comfortable beds (with hot water bottles at night if you need them) and an en suit toilet and shower. Wonderful game drives, amazing food and great company.
On this trip - again to the Mara - I changed my international flights at the last minute: no problem. I had to store a suitcase in Nairobi for a week at the last minute: no problem. I was travelling on my own for the first time but I was confident all my pick-ups & drop-offs would be there on time, and they were. Cuan also explained why I was on my own (my travelling friend had passed away a couple of months before) to the camp I was staying at which was very sweet, and avoided those awkward questions on arrival. I will book with Ubuntu Safaris again without a shadow of a doubt. Thanks Cuan!

What a memorable experience with Hello Tanzania
We booked a 2-day/1-night trip to Mikumi National Park with Hello Tanzania. We had great communication with the manager Mwajabu from the very first moment. She answers all our questions and made everything go smoothly without worries. In addition to our wonderful safari tour we also got complimentary lift from the airport to our hotel. Our driver Othman and guide Gilbert made our great trip unforgettable. Our safari were amazing because of the experience of seeing so many animals but also comfortable and nice accommodation in Camp Bastian. Thanks to Hello Tanzania that provide us everything that was necessary to have a great time on the road and in the savana with amazing animals and real adventure together with all the great people we've met. Thank you, Mwajabu, Othman and Gilbert for everything.
We strongly recommend "Hello Tanzania".
