A lifetime experience!
We did a 5-day safari trip with Anthony, the owner of the company, and it was beyond amazing!!
The communication before coming to Africa worked very well, Anthony picked us up from our hotel in Nairobi. Our first night in the Sweetwater Lodge in the Ol Pejeta conservancy was so great, we got an extra upgrade and had such a beautiful tent. From our veranda we could watch the elephant and the giraffes walking by to drink from the waterhole. For us, that was the most magical moment of the whole trip!
Also our accommodations in the Nakuru national parc and the Masai Mara were so beautiful, the staff was always very friendly and helpful.
On the game drives we did every day twice, Anthony showed us all the animals we could wish for. Rhinos, elephants, zebras, lions (also the cabs), giraffes, cheetahs and many many more. We also had the chance to watch a hyena while hunting and killing a gazelle. We felt very safe in every moment and besides the game drives we really enjoyed having long conversation with Anthony about the culture and people of Africa.
In total, we can highly recommend Tazama Africa holidays for doing a safari in Kenya! Thank you again Anthony for this trip, this was a lifetime experience!

My recent trip with peaks and safaris was perfect. The guide was knowledgeable and very professional. The game drive in Masai Mara was exceptional! we saw all the BIG 5s.

One of the best experiences of our lifes! Highly Recommended
It was just fantastic! Abner makes scheduling and coordinating a trip like this incredibly simple, and he knew precisely what our family was searching for and responded to our messages within an hour. I really wanted this trip to be special for my wife and me as we were approaching our 25th wedding anniversary, and I can't thank the Ongeri expedition team enough for exceeding my expectations. Martin met us at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and kicked off our 10-day wildlife trip. They are extremely talented, and we would suggest them to anyone.

Marvelous.
The safari trip exceeded our expectations. Although we were a bit hesitant before arrival, once in Arusha everything went smoothly and resulted in an unforgettable trip. The staff are very service minded, warm and well structured. We got well cooked meals with great proportion and variety. Our guide was originally from a masai village and gave us invaluable knowledge about the area, wild life and its people. We cannot ask for more.

Great! Everything was brilliant :)
We are very, very happy that we chose exactly Kihindo Tours and Safaris.
Everything was great, both the service and the price. The price is really great for what this tour has to offer.
The guide himself is a very nice person who took great care of us. On the safari tour we experienced exactly what we expected and even more.
We spent 3 days and we will always remember these days. The animals and nature there are fantastic. We saw everything we wanted and more :) We saw lions and elephants, the giraffe even one meter away. No need to go to such a Serigeti on a safari to see all the animals, because it can also be seen by Mikumi. We recommend choosing this service and we guarantee that you will not regret it :) We spent 15 days in Tanzania and we remember the safari most vividly. We recommend that you take the Game drive programm - thats be great.
After this tour, we have the impression that we have even become good friends with Kihindo. Thank you!

Adorable - professional - respectful
One of the most beautiful trips I have ever done .
Extra miles give you a secure ride among the most beautiful parts of Kenyan Nature and landscapes .
Our tour Guide Graham and his colleague Flada were such an amazing company. Beautiful people inside - out .
We saw the most beautiful flora and fauna . All animals such as mammals , birds , hippos, giraffes !
I really recommend visiting Kenya , but most importantly choosing Extra Miles , in order to live the true Kenyan culture .

Budget safari tour of excellent standards
Budget safari tour of excellent standards. You spent 2 nights in a nice hotel/lodge, and 3 nights in safari campsites, where you are guaranteed the most beautiful sunrises. The food is so tasty and varies from every meal! (beer + wine is also included :)) - both the guide/driver and the chef were so kind, open and helpful with everything, you might need. I am diabetic, and thus I was worried that I could not keep my insulin cool and safe during the day. However, there is a little fridge in the vehicle, which was perfect for storing my medicine - it was genuinely an incredible experience, that you don’t want to miss out on!

The best of the best outfitter!!
I had a quarter life crisis and booked this trip four weeks prior to start date. Great Lake Expedition from the get-go was 10/10 with their communication and support leading up to the trip. Every single staff member is phenomenal at what they do. I personally appreciated the support shown prior to leaving the hotel for the mountain where an equipment check is done to ensure you will have everything you need for the trip. The rental equipment is top quality and I ended up renting a sleeping bag, trekking poles, and an extra jacket. It feels counter-intuitive to pack such cold-weather gear for Africa but I am telling you it is COLD COLD COLD after Day two. My best tips for summit night is to have a downloaded playlist with motivational music, a downloaded David Goggins podcast or any other podcasts that pre-occupy your mind.
Our guides William and Jocky were 10000% professionals and so helpful and caring. Our waiter Swalehe was always looking after every need, The porters were extremely kind and athletic. Another tip is to bring extra snacks, I loved being able to share my candy and granola bars with the team as a small token of gratitude to the hard work they put in to make out trip memorable.
