Will continue to recommend The Luxury Safari Company
I recently returned from a second trip organised by this great company, this time to the incredible coastline of Kenya, staying in beautiful locations and accommodation. As with my first trip, The Luxury Safari Company was very efficient and helpful with all aspects of the trip and I really hope to be able to do another trip before long.

Excellent Safari and Value for Money!!!
After my first encounter with Africa Flash McTours, I was impressed by the detailed information and fast response to my emails. I was abit skeptical when it came to making my payment as I had to pay the full amount upfront, and this was explained as I was booking my tour a few weeks to my date of departure and it was a Peak Season and Lodges only confirmed payment upon full payment during that period. I requested a few reviews from previous clients and after their positive feedback I continued with the booking.
The 3 days safari was unforgettable. Excellent accommodation - the main highlight being the cottages. The staff were wonderful. Cyrus was a wonderful guide and good luck ensured amazing animal viewing and Cyrus knew exactly where to take us. I know there are many travel agents but I would highly recommend Africa Flash McTours.

Best and most economical safari you can book
My husband and I went on a 13 day safari with Kenya Walking Survivor’s and we were extremely happy with every aspect of the trip. As others have stated, I too was leery about wiring so much money to an unknown person in Kenya, but rest assured, Mr. Otieno is very ethical and will go to all lengths to make your trip spectacular. Our plane arrived and departed in the wee hours of the night and he provided transportation each time. We had such a great guide (Ochieng) who was focused on providing us with the best views and photos of all of the animals. Not only was he the first to spot the animals, we were finished viewing them before other vans came upon the same viewing spot. We were on our way to another spotting by the time the competitor’s guides came along. He was very knowledgeable too about all of the animals and the country of Kenya. Our accommodations were top of the line. I know with Kenya Walking, you can choose to tent it, but we chose the tented camps and lodges which were very luxurious. We literally had linen table clothes and a 5 course meal out in the middle of the Serengeti when we went to Tanzania. Mr. Otieno is very accessible too. When we were leaving, we accidentally left our cameral in the drop-off car. I had to call Mr. Otieno at 2:30 AM and he answered and called the driver to return to the airport with our camera. He couldn’t be more attentive to his clients. The food at all of our lodges and tented camps included a wide variety of Western food and some African selections. It was delicious. They will provide all the bottled water for you on your safari. You only have to purchase alcoholic or soft drinks, if you choose those. He really listens to the clients’ feedback too because there was one hotel in Naivasha that we mentioned we didn’t like to our guide and before the end of our trip, the word got back to Mr. Otieno and he had already changed the Chester hotel to another tented camp for that location. I cannot stress enough how nice these tented campsites are. It was like we were the rich and famous on a safari. He said he negotiates rates, so he can get them much cheaper than if the customer books it directly. I was afraid since his rates were lower than the other companies that I would get subpar experience, but that wasn’t the case at all. Overall, I would rate our experience as 5+++! Since we had 13 days for our trip, the only thing I would do differently is I think I would choose to go see the gorillas. I heard from other people along the way that it was super cool to see them. We met the guide who specializes in those tours and his name is Martin. He was great too, although we only had him drive us back from the border to Nairobi. You can’t go wrong with this company.

Safari fantastico con Savannah Explorers !!!!
Io e mia moglie abbiamo deciso di fare un safari di circa 8 giorni (Arusha Tarangire -Lake Manyara - Serengeti - Ngorongoro dal 1marzo 2015 al 9 marzo 2015 ) con Savannah Explorers. Ho contattato Roberto per organizzare il mio viaggio lui è stato molto professionale ed ha organizzato tutto nei minimi dettagli . Al nostro arrivo all'aereporto di Kilimanjaro ci ha accolto (alle 2 di notte ) il suo socio Greyson che ci ha spiegato ottimamente come veniva svolto il safari accompagnandoci in albergo e assicurandosi che tutto fosse ok per la nostra accoglienza. Greyson è stato costantemente in contatto con la guida per sapere come procedeva la nostra escursione .Gli alloggi come i pasti sono sempre stati all'altezza delle nostre aspettative , la jeep ben attrezzata e sempre fornita di ogni tipo di bevande .A noi è stata affidata come guida il "Grande" Yuda : guida espertissima e molto simpatica ( con lui abbiamo fatto amicizia e ci sentiamo tuttora.) Yuda è stato molto disponibile e puntale accontentando tutte le nostre richieste e permettendoci , grazie alla sua competenza , di vedere tutti gli animali possibili nel migliore dei modi . Sicuramente in futuro ci appoggeremo di nuovo a questa agenzia che si è dimostrata seria e professionale .

Very professional and solid company
I actually got hooked up with this company through another company in Kenya who proved to be disastrous but nonetheless this company was excellent and comparison. Even though a lot of what I received onto it was not what I was promised again through the manager of the original company who set me up with these guys, had a true budget camping Safari with no facilities been what I was looking for these guys did a great job. Becker the guide and Rafael the cook were friendly and efficient and provided excellent food and knowledge about the area and animals. I can't get over how good the food was really I was so impressed. Becker joined us every night at dinner and was so professional it was just great. If I shall return I will go straight to him for a tour as he was good.

Tam and Alex were awesome and ensured we had a better time in Africa than we could ever dream of.
My son and I travelled to Africa going to Kingspool(linyanti) and Khwai camps via Maun. This was not my first trip to Africa but it was my sons and no stone was left unturned in ensuring we had the trip of a lifetime and the care and the focus by remarkable-africa was to make sure your my son was safe and consistently enthralled with new experiences every day. He has now fallen inlove with Africa and i am sure we will return and will only look at one company for our travel plans. Remarkable-Africa (especially Tam and Alex) are incredible to deal with and make your feel like your needs and desires are as important to them as their own.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Tourist from S.F.
We went all over, and saw everything: birth, death, mating...I can't say enough about what a fantastic experience.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Tourist from S.F.
Like being in a huge zoo without walls. The animals were fearless, so much less shy, and easy to see.
