Absolutely perfect!
We used Godson for safari and hiking Kilimanjaro. Godson was absolutely incredible. Him and his team looked after us so well. For me in particular as I have dietary requirements (coeliac) I was a little nervous but the food was not only safe but really delicious. The whole experience with Godson was very professional and extremely friendly. I would highly recommend Godson for Safari's and hiking, he certainly went above and beyond my expectations.

Excellent planning and customer service.
Planning and booking a safari is a daunting experience. We looked into and contacted a number of companies for a safari in Masai Mara preserve in Kenya. Although we had many proposals, Denis from African Vacation Safaris clearly was the most thorough and thoughtful. His proposal included multiple options in terms of budgets with each detailed in what to expect. His communication was timely and precise and he made us feel like we were in trusted hands. True to his word, the experience was excellent. Joseph, out guide, was outstanding and his expertise was evident right away. Each day fulfilled our expectations and he was a true professional in his knowledge and understanding of the area. We were extremely happy with the trip and would recommend them to anyone.

Excellent safari adventure with a fantastic tour guide
Overall I was very impressed by the service from African Skimmer Safaris. Nick is very educated about all of the wildlife and areas that you will be visiting, he is very friendly, and one of the best drivers on the planet. Taking a safari in Kenya is an experience not to be missed, with unforgettable sights of diverse wildlife and culture.

Excellent trip!
Last week we came back from a 15-day Kenya-Tanzania safari and Zanzibar resort trip arranged by Otieno of KWSS. It was an amazing experience. It started with emails between me and Otieno and he never failed to respond on time with detailed answers to all of my questions. It was a real pleasure corresponding with him. If you are hesitant to send 100% deposit, don’t be. It’s a very responsible and reliable establishment. While on safari, I had called Otieno few times and he answered calls immediately, assuring concerns and answering questions.
On our first part of the trip in Kenya (lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Amboseli) we spent with assigned guide Anthony. If you decide to book your trip with KWSS, I highly recommend you request Anthony to be your guide. He is not only knowledgeable and friendly; he is also a person with a huge heart. I highly encourage everyone to bring something for the children of Maasai Mara tribes, when visiting. Box of cookies, few packs of candies will not break your bank but will be divided amongst these unfortunate children and will go a long way. In any case, let Anthony be your guide and let him share his knowledge of Kenya and safari with you. Not only that he tries hard for you to see the wildlife, he will explain to you the behavior of the animal and will predict what will happen next. If you witness a lioness finish devouring her kill, do not leave the spot right away. Savanna drama continues. You will likely see hyenas, vultures and others to compete for food.
Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania are the highlights of the trip, especially Ngorongoro. The amount of animals you’ll see there, even in low season, is unbelievable. Flamingoes and a black rhino are the only two species that we couldn’t find. But hey, it’s like going fishing. One day you catch some and on other days you don’t.
Last but not least. Be prepared for the unexpected. A shower in the lodge may not be like back home, a generator might go out in the tented camp or a baboon might steal your lunch box. It’s all good; don’t let it ruin your trip. Be prepared for long, dusty roads. Bring few surgical masks to cover your mouth, plastic bags for your photo equipment, lots of patience and generosity.
Zanzibar was good, but we were so tired from the trip that we just vegetated for few days, doing absolutely nothing but relax.
Overall experience with KWSS is five stars and if we ever decide to come back, rest assure we will book with Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris.
Thank you Otieno. Thank you Anthony.

Great time in Masai Mara
We were group of 7 and spent 4 days on safari in Masai Mara. Alfred, our guide and driver, knew the park very well and we saw all Big Five animals. Alfred was a great companion, always in a good mood, helpful and reliable. The lodge where we stayed was excellent. It was well located, there was a great food and the tents very nice and spacious. I enjoyed every minute of my stay and I would like to come back.

Excellent organization and beautiful places
I make the premise that this is the only safari I've done until now. We traveled on private tour for two people for 6 days / 5 nights visiting Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater, Serengeti and Tarangire; overnight stays were in lodges and tented camps (Serengeti). Everything went well and we were able to see all the big five and lots of animals and beautiful places. The guide spoke Italian was very good and able to spot the various animals from afar.
