Amazing!
My husband and I did an eight-day safari with Sunny Safaris in June and had a wonderful time.
Our guide, Sammy, was excellent. His ability to spot animals was impressive. Where we saw acres of grass, he found lions. Where we saw tree branches, he found cheetahs. He could also answer every question we had about their habitats, lifestyles, hunting and mating habits, etc. We saw 59 lions, a few cheetahs, a servile cat, countless birds, and of course loads of elephants, giraffes, and zebras. We also saw two black rhinos - which is extremely rare - all because of Sammy.
We did a mix of camping and luxury lodges and both were fantastic. I was nervous about camping in the bush but it was actually really fun and quite exciting. We could hear lions roaring in the background and a buffalo even ran along the outskirts of our camp one night while trying to escape a predator. The stars we were able to see out in the bush were unlike any I've ever seen before. While camping we had a cook who made every meal for us and the food was delicious - it definitely exceeded my expectations.
All in all, I'd recommend Sunny Safaris to anybody considering working with them. They were incredibly responsive and helpful during the planning process, our guide came and introduced himself to us the day before we left and gave us a rundown of how the trip would go (a nice touch), and their prices were very reasonable.
We give them an unreserved, enthusiastic 5 stars.

You will not be disappointed!
The ACZ Safari was the highlight of my 3 week backpacking adventure around Africa. They are quick to respond to emails, picked me up and dropped me off where I was staying, and provided water, meals and the best lodging! Edward was an incredible driver and a great guide; he led us right to the great wildebeest migration!
I am lucky to have had this unforgettable experience.
Thank you ACZ!
Lovely safari in Tsavo west and Diani
I would highly appreciate the kind effort from Sun splash safaris. we were recommended by our friend to use this operator . we booked 7 day safari to Tsavo and beach holiday in Diani. My husband and I loved the private safari apart from the driving distance to Diani which we had to wait for a long queue for ferry transport.
I would recommend them to other travelers.

Great experience with a great driver
We booked a 3 day safari to tarangire, ngorongoro and lake manyara over the internet. Mr. Ndamungu replied my emails very fast and answered all questions. The driver and his boss collected us at your camp in arusha in the morning. After a visit in the supermarket the boss left in arusha and we first went to tarangire. Our driver Abraham was very good in english and so we spoke a lot and he told us very much about the country and the animals. Both nights were in the panorama camp with a great view over lake manyara. The food was good and very much. Second day we went to ngorongoro, a really fascinating place! Afterwards we go back to the camp, where we were allowed to left our bagagge. Last day we spent at lake manyara. In these days we saw almost every animal, we wondered if Abraham could smell the animals over kilometers.
So we enjoyed our stay with mercury tours really very much and i only can recommend this company, it was a really good and cheap safari!

Excellent communication and unforgettable experience for 16 family members ages 7 to 78!
We just returned from an amazing 8 day, 7 night private lodge safari with Sunny Safaris. I would highly recommend Sunny Safaris as your tour operator. When my parents visited Africa in 2011, it was their dream to return with all 7 of their grandchildren which finally came true this summer. We have been working closely with Jessica and her staff since last summer when our family decided to embark upon this journey. Besides price, her prompt and complete email responses was a major deciding factor when choosing a tour operator. We visited Lake Manyara (1), Serengeti (2), Ngorongoro (2), and Tarangire (1). We stayed in Serena lodges except in Tarangire where we stayed in a Sopa lodge. Our first night we stayed in Arusha at Lake Duluti Lodge which was a phenomenal experience. Due to our diverse age range (ages 7 to 78), we decided to include one day of recuperation after the long journey which turned out to be just what we all needed. The rooms and cuisine were beyond our expectation. Saeed was our dining room manager, and he catered to our dining requests. His staff delivered delicious meals beyond our expectation and pampered us with Tanzanian hospitality. All the Serena/Sopa lodges provided us with clean rooms and mosquito nets where needed. Much to our surprise, we didn't see many insects. The bathrooms had hot running water and facilities like home. The lodges were well maintained. All the dining rooms provided 3 to 5 course meals from buffet to off the menu dining with service beyond expectation. All the chefs were attentive to our dining needs, and the staff pampered us with their courteous service. We all enjoyed every meal which is difficult to achieve with a group our size. Our drivers, Abdul, BJ and Edward delivered a memorable safari experience and all the jeeps were well maintained. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the animals, plants, and culture, not only in identification, but also behavior and extra facts about the animals/plants. Because they knew the animals so well, we witnessed the Big 5! What a treat! When you are sifting through the many tour operators, seriously consider Sunny Safaris. They deliver beyond your expectation.

One of the best of my life.
Excellent communications. The whole trip exceeded my expectations. Our guide, Andy was superb and extremely knowledgeable about everything. In fact he absolutely made the trip. The staff were excellent, the food amazing (I'm a vegetarian) and altogether the holiday was brilliant.
Amazing, trip of a lifetime, left me wanting more
I have recently got back from one of John Cooper's photographic safaris. Wow, what an amazing time I had. We only had a small group which is a bonus on such a trip because everyone is trying to get the same vantage point. While on safari drives we were also able to split our group into two which gave us even better photographic opportunities. The accommodation and food were all great and we were able to see 4 of the big 5. We tried hard to see leopards but they just didn't want to be found. John was the ideal guide and knows a lot about the history of Africa and all the places we visited and knew where to take advantage of the best photographic opportunities. I am missing the animals and the entire Africa Adventure and am already saving for my next trip. I can highly recommend John and his African Adventures Safari Company.
