Properly organized safari, unforgettable experience !
4/5

4 DAYS LOW BUDGET SAFARI IN SERENGETI, NGORONGORO & TARANGIRE - solo traveller.
Based in Kenya and having a representative in Arusha, “Trip Advisor Africa Safaris” has extensive experience in Tanzanian parks and safaris. Vincent Seth, its director, is very friendly, responding always willingly to all e-mails and questions.
As usually, you end up in a car of a different agency but that’s not important...
The poor conditions of the campsite in Serengeti, the risk to sleep with a stranger in a small tent - which didn’t happen with difficulty - and my window of the vehicle which didn’t open - but we had an open car roof - they were nothing compared to the greatness of the 3 parks!
The price was affordable, time was always respected, the 6 pax group was fine, the driver and the cook were nicely professional, we were always busy and active, the number and diversity of animals were amazing, the weather perfect... I am happy! I could use their services again.

The best honeymoon safari!
5/5

Me and my husband Giacomo decided to do a 6 days safari for our honeymoon which was followed by a self-organized trip to Zanzibar. We found Easy Travel thanks to the reviews in trip advisor/safari bookins and the best decision we made was to select them to organize our safari and 1 day trip to Kilimanjaro. Our point of contact Maryam was very professional, responsive and quick in preparing our programme and selecting wonderful lodges. She communicated to all accommodation places that we are on our honeymoon and in every location we were discovering nice surprises showing great customer care thanks to her. Our tour guide to Kilimanjaro Isaak was really knowledgeable about the flora and fauna in the region and answered all our questions which i can ensure you were plenty. He was also very humble, kind and honest. After the Kilimandjaro 1 day hike we did 6 days of safari in Tarangire National park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu area (where we saw amazing amount of animals) and Central Serengeti. Our guide Endeni was extremely professional, knowledgeable and made sure that everything during the trip runs extremely smoothly and husstle free so we could enjoy every minute of it. He always managed to get us on time to see interesting scenes from the animal life and was extremely responsive to our demands. We arrived to Arusha without our luggage due to a ground handling strike in Belgium and Endeni was very helpful and called several times the airport and made sure that we will get our bags on time.
Easy travel's vehicles were the newest and the best we saw in the savanna. The company looks very well run and it is really an 'easy travel' with them.
Overall the safari, the guides and Easy Travel really exceeded our expectations and made our honeymoon a memorable one.

Maryam, Isack, Endeni, me and Giacomo thank you so much for all your care and professionalism! Thanks to you we will keep forever these beautiful memories from our trip in Tanzania!!!

5/5

Nick was extremelly helpfull in helping me planning my vacation. Before joining friends at a rest camp in the National Kruger Park, I wanted to go to a private game lodge. I had no idea how to go about it, so I contacted a bunch of agencies that I found through a basic Google search. Nick responded right away even though it was Saturday evening in South Africa. I explained him what I wanted and my schedule constraints. He recommended what turned out to be an amazing private lodge, arranged the transfer from Johannesburg and then he came to drive me from to the lodge to the Satara camp where I had to meet my friends. Nick was friendly and courteous, I called him a bunch of times before booking as I was not at all familiar with South Africa and game reserves and he was of great help. The private lodge portion of my vacation in South Africa was truly the highlight. I couldn't be happier for choosing Buya Buya. Thank you Nick for accommodating my schedule and doing such an amazing job. I'll definitely go with Buya Buya for my next safari vacation.

Excellent
5/5

Davis is an excellent tour guide. He really took care of us, and that's what you need in foreign location. The accommodations were fantastic. We slept at lodges located in the forested areas. We could see elephants, in the distance, from our porch. What an unexpected treat. I'm a lacto-ovo-pesco vegetarian and I had no problems with meals being prepared without meat. On top of that, the meals were delicious. I highly recommend touring with Gorillas Homeland Safaris.

Amazing experiences in Uganda with Home To Africa
5/5

We have just returned from an 11 day to Uganda with Home To Africa. Everything went incredibly smoothly. Our guide, Sam, was knowledgeable, friendly and open to just about any conversation. We saw all the animals we had hoped for (gorillas, chimps, lions, giraffes, zebras and elephants) and a myriad of different types of antelope. The leopard remained elusive so we may have to come back! Sam is an excellent spotter and he also knows birds very well. This was our first visit to Africa and first safari. A memorable trip indeed.

The office team was responsive from first inquiry through the booking process and beyond. All our questions were answered, usually within a few hours in spite of an 8-hour time difference. This was an easy trip to arrange and the staff deserves all the credit.

As a bonus, Home To Africa supports local charity works. In addition to the donation they make when you book, we had the opportunity to visit a local community and meet children - mostly orphaned - for whom we had brought school supplies and clothing. This was a very special opportunity to experience Uganda.

4-day safari was wonderful, 6-day safari not so much
3/5

Foot Slopes was wonderful about communication right from when I first submitted a request for a quote. They were very responsive and answered all of my questions fully. The first four days of the tour were wonderful--I was with a great group of people, and our guide Freddy was amazing and passionate about showing us Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater, and all the places in between. He was personable, knowledgeable, and seemed to really enjoy what he was doing. After the fourth day, the group I had been with finished their safari and I continued on for two more days to Lake Manyara and to hike in Kilimanjaro National Park. I was matched up with two different groups and communication between the tour guides and Foot Slopes seemed to be lacking. On the fifth day, we waited for the guide to arrive for many hours, and when we finally got started, the car broke down, the guide reeked of alcohol, and it took over an hour to fix the situation. The new guide was not friendly, barely commented on the animals and natural scenery, and rushed us through the park. On the final day of the tour, I was matched up with another group and we hiked in Kilimanjaro National Park. The hike was beautiful, but a lot more difficult than it had been marketed. I hadn't realized that I'd need hiking apparel and wasn't prepared for the terrain, so the hike wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been. If you're thinking about taking Foot Slopes four-day safari, you'll probably have a great experience as it seems like this is what the majority of travelers choose. However, if you're taking a longer safari, the experience might be more hit or miss.

GREAT
5/5

Reliable. Friendly. Fair. Best value for money.
We rented a 4-WD for 3 weeks for our self-drive tour and also all our permits for CHEX and 2 gorilla trekkings.
Hajarah took care of everything in advance. She is not only nice, her service was really great. All her support was helpful and also her advices about our tour. She always replied prompt. 100% perfect. 100% service.
Moses picked us up at the airport and he is just phantastic. The car, by the way, was brilliant as well.
All we can say is: YES- we can recommend Simba Safari Expeditions by all means.
Thank you - Simba Safari Expeditions made our Uganda tour unforgettable and phantastic

Saw 4 of the big 5!
5/5

Had a great safari with Joshua as my guide. He was so knowledgeable about the animals and knew exactly where to take us to see them. Be prepared however for the long and intense drive from Nairobi to Masai Mara. If you get car sick or can’t sit for hours at a time I suggest doing a fly in safari. Lodging was nice honestly you are so tired after safari each day you would sleep anywhere.

Amazing Kenya Safari tour and beach experience – Highly recommended
5/5

We asked Diana to organize a 14 days Kenya safari tour plus 3 days rest at a beach for 3 persons. Diana created a perfect tour, was very friendly and helpful and responded quickly to questions. She helped to organize a German speaking tour guide and joined us for dinner at the day of our arrival which we enjoyed a lot. Our tour guide Tony picked us up next day and turned out to be a great tour guide very soon. He drove us through the country and all national parks and we were very impressed about his German skills, his knowledge about the country, the parks and its wildlife. We felt in good and safe hands anytime. We did full day and half day game drives and have seen many, many animals also because of our tour guide who had a good eye for that. Main stops were Maasai Mara, Kericho, Kisumu, Kakamega, Iten, Lake Baringo, Lake Elementaita, Lake Bogoria, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo East and Watumu. Accommodation in the traditional Kenyan Lodges was excellent and on a middle-class but high standard, an absolute highlight was Tumbili Cliff Lodge at Lake Baringo. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Adventure Expeditions and thank them once again for a great time in this beautiful country.

Perfect Safari with a very good driver
5/5

We booked at the last minute and the agency was very responsive. The driver Larry was just perfect, patient, attentive and adapted to us. We could see the big five and so much more. We stayed at the Rhino Tourist Camp which is very good. Thank you very much for this experience.
