Brilliant organisation
We went on several trips they were all very good including the sun set cruise, however as all the alcohol was free some of the guests took advantage and spoiled it somewhat for us, but with that exemption the other trips we excellent

professional , close and trusted
Hello, from the very begening, the comunication was very eficient, I was trying to organise the safari from Europe for my family, we have made many diferent proposals and we had always a quick and profesional answer. We are 4 in the family, including my 2 sons, 9 and 13 years old, my wife and me. The whole Safari starting from the negotiation of the different options, the reception in Arusha, the guide, the route, all was really fantastic. The guide was a clever and profesional guy, showing us the country, natural life, culture and much more much better and depper tan expected. My family was always safe and happy. All locations were incredible, offering different prespectives and aproaches but all of them in very high level of price-quality balance. I can not remenber nothing negative of the whole Safari, appart of the dust of the tanzanian offroad routes jajajaj!

Best safari ever with yala safaris.They gave us more than we expected,more than we deserved.
That last night at home.You think about how your safari is gonna be like.There are some experiences that are unforgettable.We wanted that safari at the highest ..When we started planning our trip,we looked and asked many places but we chose Yala safaris because of the positive and competent answers we got.Despite our budget,the owner/our guide Godwin still managed to fix us comfort full board accommodation in all the places we travelled.Because of his flexability,connection and good character with people everything was nice and easy.He is so friendly towards clients and always willing to help in any way he can.Our trip to murchison falls and Queen elizabeth will forever be the trip of our life time.If we ever have to tell our story,we will say we once travelled with Yala safaris the best,we lived in the time of Godwin the expert!!

Absolutely lovely from start to finish
We had organised the 7 day safari with Makasa and everything was perfect. The organisation / lodges / taxi pick-up / guide / extra coffee tour were all topnotch!
It was our first safari, but will definitely not be the last.
You get to personalise your own trip with lots of help and tips from Selma. Via email everything went smooth, lots of answers quickly.
We were very happy to have chosen Makasa instead of the many overpriced tour operators in Arusha.
We paid way less for a private safari than some companies were charging for shared safari (which I definitely would not recommend).

Great trip to various locales in Tanzania.
Antelope did an outstanding job in organizing tours to Selous, Serengetti, Nogorongoro and other parts. Our guide Miraji was a fine man.

Wonderful experience with karibu excellent service.
We had a wonderful six day safari in Kenya¡ Robert is an excellent trip advisor, he answered all our questions about visa, itinerary, price, optional trips and what was included. Since we arrived at the airport they were waiting for us, drivers Gibson and Jackson were very formal and kind on their duties, food was enough and good. Masai Mara, Amboseli,Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha were marvelous¡¡

Ten day safari in Tanzania.
From start to finish the safari holiday was fantastic. Great communication from Epic Tours keeping us updated. Their service was first class. From picking us once landing into Tanzania to dropping us off at our final hotel.
Safari was spent in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. The guide Living Temba was excellent nothing was no trouble. His experience his personality made the holiday. To see the Big five on one day was most probably the highlight.
Accommodation was as advertised, clean, staff helpful and plenty of animals roaming around the camps.
A true once in life holiday, made by Epic Tours.
it was my 1st time to do the company but itwas just awesome
Iwas kept informed to an extend of a follow-up , generally it git that touch of customer focus, definately a do again

Slow service on the trip
We booked a 2 night/3 day walking tour to Mount Meru. The communication before the trip was very good. The two porters/chefs/guides we met originally seemed good fun and very helpful. We were told we would have 4 porters for our trip. When we arrived at the National Park, we were told to sit and eat our lunch, then told, we needed to hurry as the ranger ( who we had never met) was leaving. We then realised we were in a group with 20 other people(I had originally inquired whether we could join another group and have a discount and was told no). The 2 men we had arrived with, did not walk with us on that first day. We had nobody from Bobby tours with us. When we arrived at the camp, the other people were given tea, but our representatives were not there. They arrived an hour after us and we had tea approx 2 hours after everyone else. The next day started the same way, we walked with a group of 20 people with no representatives from Bobby Tours. That afternoon we climbed Mount Meru with one representative from Bobby tours and a local porter. Mount Meru is an amazing climb. The next day we walked down off the mountain with our Bobby tour representative. They then asked us for tips for 5 people ( we had already had to tip the ranger) I explained that we had not seen these 5 people. We agreed to give tips for 4 people when we got to our hotel. The Bobby tour representatives' attitude towards their tips was simply not good enough. They were pushy and questioning constantly and when we gave them their tips, they became quite unfriendly, greedy and close to abusive. Afterwards we rang Kassim in the office to explain our problems with his workers, he said the greediness is to be expected and is fairly normal and he apologised for their behaviour.
