Fantastic experience in Kenya. Amazing place and people
Have been with my daughter 10 years old to Kenya and had an amazing safari experience with all being organized by Kay Adventure. Moureen the adminastrive manager and the guide / driver Kelly made all their best for us to have a lifetime experience. It started since the moment I requested for the offer. Moureen always replied to my inqueries prompt and with a very sense of customer care. Kelly was a very patient and great driver and guide. He always was available to listen to my daughter and search for the animals she wanted to spot. There is absolutely nothing both of them left without personall attention. What team!!! We made Amboselli, Tsavo West and East and Shimba Hills before going to Diani Beach. The lodges we stayed and were booked by Moureen were also great. We really enjoyed staying there after long days safari. At the first night actually was my daughter's birthday and Moureen left organized a birthday party at the lodge. My daughter got very excited with the surprise. It has been one of the best vacations I've ever had. It was the first time I traveled with just my daughter and the experience was wonderful and I have just to thanks Kay Adventure for their customer care. They do delight customers. Love Kenya, Love their people, Love the safaris, Love the wildlife and have just a request for those who are reading to it. Be a sponsor, be a defender of the nature, the wildlife. We need to help and protect them for the future generations. It is not just about the animals themselves, it is also to supporting the future generations of people at the country. Tourism is a quite important income for Kenya and for the future of their children.

Thanks to the Karibu staff and itinerary, my safari experience was incredible and unforgettable.
The safari was easily organized, the staff was incredible, and the tour itself was even better than I imagined it would be. The Karibu staff was easily accessible in case of questions before, during, and after the safari. Throughout the tour itself, the guide and cook were incredibly friendly and flexible to clients' needs. They made me and the other clients feel as comfortable as possible throughout the trip. The tour itself is something I will remember for the rest of my life. We were able to take advantage of the short time we had and saw not only the big 5, but many other animals as well. The guide was extremely knowledgable and explained what all of the animals were, and more interesting facts about them. I would highly recommend Karibu Tanzania Safaris to anyone that wants to take full-advantage of the safari experience.

A 2 week, 4 camp photographic safari
Paul did a great job in creating, organizing, and guiding our safari. He dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's. No detail was left unnoticed. Our sixth safari to Africa and Paul was the best.

They knew the business and what to do. The driver was excellent, the best on the Masai Mara.
From the outset this company was fantastic. The organisation ran like clockwork and the driver was the best on the Masai Mara! Excellent value for money too.

It was totally amazing.... I was so well looked after..nothing lacking...above all expectations
From the minute I arrived I was really welcome that couldn't have done any more. I lived like a queen! The Safari is brilliant with skilled, knowledgeable guides that could find the animals so well. I saw so many rare experiences from two lions so close to us... such loud roars!! giving is an amazing experience and giraffe fighting each other.... elephants having a bit of a tussle.... stroking a cheetah in the wild while he was eating his dinner.... rhinos walking past us.... it goes on and on.... I felt perfectly safe at all times... absolutely brilliant!!

Excellence Service for African Tours
I would like to make a special thanks to Hamza Nyelo our guide. He was beyond our expectations. I recommend Africa Remote Safaris with a balloon ride over the Serengeti as a bonuys. Thank you to everyone involved in my Safari trip. I felt safe and well cared for and will recommend ARS to all my friends and family.

Amazing African Safari
Our Kenyan Safari was perfection from the day Paul picked from the airport to the end. It was very assuring and a great feeling to know that there was someone at the airport waiting for us, driving us to the hotels, checking us into the Safari lodges and hotels and didn’t just drop us off, discussed each day’s itinerary and pick up timings and even calling us in our room to verify times. Our driver Paul was always on time, when he said 0920hrs rest assured he was there exactly at the time. He was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. Paul has been a guide for 20 years and mastery of spotting wildlife was incredible. We asked all kind of questions and he was able to answer, he even taught us some Swahili words. The tented camps and lodges were outstanding, including Ol Moran camp in Maasai Mara, and Flamingo hill.
If I have overlooked anyone or any detail- You were all outstanding , Including Steve who put this together bending over backwards to make every detail perfect. You have made the perfect Vacation even more perfect. Thank you all so Much..

Outstanding in every way
If I could give Amani Afrika and its owners, Godwin and Vivian, 5-½ stars, I would. We recently returned from a fabulous trip to Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda, all arranged through them. We spent several nights each in two of Tanzania’s best game parks (Ngorongoro, Serengeti), then 4 nights on the beach in Zanzibar, and finished with a tour to see the chimps in Uganda and the gorillas in Rwanda. Everything was planned and executed perfectly. Not only that, but we had a car and driver/guide to ourselves for the whole time. The lodgings were first rate (check out Essque Zalu in Zanzibar, for example). Our driver/guides were local natives and were extremely knowledgeable and personable. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of tour company, and we got it all for about ½ the price of a commercial tour group. I should also mention that Vivian is a terrific communicator and went above and beyond to see that our every need was met.

Helpful and cheery, variable in communications
We did self cater, self drive to Kruger.
Service was helpful and upbeat. Booking consultant was very enthusiastic and friendly. Information regarding the cost conservation fees for foreigners could have been more specific. Generally, given we had an unfortunate cancellation the outcome has been favourable and Kruger.com assisted in the credit.
We enjoyed our Kruger visit.

Terri-Ann Scholtz of Ker and Downey Africa planned our perfect family trip to Tanzania and Rwanda!
I contacted Ker and Downey Africa blindly and was blown away by the responsiveness, service level, and incredible recommendations that our representative Terri-Ann Scholtz provided. Never did more than a few hours go by without a reply from Terri-Ann. I gave her a brief outline of what I wanted to do and where I wanted to visit, and she gave me a few great options from which to choose. She gave me her opinion on each, pricing, expectations, and details descriptions. When I showed any concern, she explained further why she thought I would enjoy the excursion or she gave me other options. She never hesitated to give references of other families who had used her and / or the company before. It was their glowing recommendations and her level of service that gave me the confidence I needed to sign on. The trip exceeded our expectations! We spent 8 days in Tanzania and 3 days in Rwanda, and we stayed at the most incredible lodges and camps. Favorites were Tarangire Tree Tops and Serengeti Migration Camp. Terri-Ann also arranged private tours for us. Our guides were knowledgeable, respectful, committed, and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed every minute. The food everywhere was delicious. The descriptions of our itinerary did not do justice to the experience. We went in a hot air balloon over the Serengeti and went trekking in the forest to find a family of 24 gorillas that we observed and spent time with in Rwanda. Everything was perfect, and this trip has been our best family vacation yet! I recommend Ker and Downey Africa without any reservations.
