Marvellous bush tour....
Me and my friend Sudhen Pai took the safari from Oct 2nd to 7th, 2016. I should confess that it was much more thrilling than what we had anticipated. Pamela and the driver, Daniel met us at our hotel in Nairobi and we proceeded to Masai. We had opted for budget accommodation at Mara sidai camp. Evening we visited Masai village and interacted with the tribesmen. Next whole day was the safari. We could see almost all the wild animals, including a feeding Cheetah, lions, hyena, elephant, hippos, giraffe s and off course thousands if not more of gazelles, wildebeest and zebras..being a keen bird watcher, I had seen many varieties , but then we couldn't spare much time for them..next day we covered Lake Naivasha and Nakuru. Its a paradise for bird watchers. Our last destination was samburu, where we stayed at the posh Samburu Sopa lodge. The resort was fantastic including the stay, bar and the restaurant. The safari at samburu was phenomenal in terms of birds and animals. We could see the reticulated girafe, grevy's zebra, guinea fowl, hornbills, lions, cheetah in hunting mode , leopards etc. We headed back to Nairobi and had a lunch at the famous Seven sea grills at ABC mall where we could meet the celebrity chef Kiran Jethwa. All the while, our driver Daniel was enthusiastic. Maybe, if u need bird watching, you should inform earlier to get a guide who is well versed with them . Pamela visited us again and asked us about the trip. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and we didn't have any hiccups whatsoever during the whole trip. Would recommend Magical retreats to anyone. Happy safari !

From Nairobi, Loita Plains, Loita Hilla, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Amboseli, Kilimanjaro, Tsavo West, Tsavo East, Mombasa, Back to Nairobi. Thousands of land miles were covered with complete awe and joy. Elephants, Lions, Wildebeest, Zebras, Buffalo, Rhino, Crocs, Girrafes, Leopards, Cheetahs, Gazelles and, and, and.... birds, the most amazing vegetation, landscape which went to infinity. All breathtaking. And the sky - wow! Day / Night - stars, moon, sunset, sunrise heart lifting.
The safari guides / drivers passionate and knowledgeable about their countries and their animals and land. Kirimi - safari guide/driver was so kind, thoughtful,caring and delighted in sharing his passion and knowledge. The safari lodges and hotels were extraordinary- with the exception of one - I would stay in all of them again. Maji Moto - the cultural eco camp has to be experienced.
When in Kenya and Tanzania - Kenan travel checked that I was okay and made sure that the safari was going well. I was collected on time from the airports and taken to all relevant glorious locations on time and stress free.
The whole experience has been life changing and life enhancing. An authentic adventure.

Best Safari Experience
We had a wonderful safari experience with our guide Poloko. His wildlife knowledge, driving skills and willingness to show us all animals from close distance made our holiday an unforgettable one.

Best way to enjoy Tanzania's Game Parks.
Tanzania Choice safaris far exceded all of our expectations. The knowledge of our guide, Kakasaii, insured that we would be in the right place at the right time to maximize each moment of our trip. Far before we arrived in Tanzania, we were supplied with a well planned itinerary, with all of the information needed so we would not be faced with in-country surprises. When we return to continue Tanzania's wonderful game parks, there is no question that we will use Tanzania Choice Safaris as our host. Anyone reading this should make the same choice!
Thanks Brenda and Kakasaii for making a dream come true.

Magnificent!
If you’re looking for the experience of a lifetime, look no further. Because of the level of service offered by TCO, my stay in Tanzania was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro was more than I could have ever expected. Any hesitation or fear I might have had prior to climbing had completely vanished by the time the journey up began. I was so well informed of what to expect and how we, as a team, were going to make it up together. We were informed of the health measures that would be taken to ensure our well being while climbing. From checking our oxygen output levels to the nutritious meals that would be provided us nightly. I was made to feel safe and confident.
The safari was breathtaking, being up close to the most magnificent creatures on the planet. We saw rhinos, giraffes, an elephant migration, wildebeests, lions, hippos, and the list goes on! We had a black mane lion walk directly in front of our van and have a standoff with a water buffalo 60 yards from us! Ok, maybe 100 yards, but it was awesome!

An amazing and wild National park
Gonaezhou is an outstanding National Park,and is arguably the the best undiscovered gem in Africa. The scenery is simply breathtaking,especially the Chilojo Chills. The pans are filled with birds,and there are plenty of antelope. I saw steenbok,nyala,sable, duikers,and lots of greater kudu. i also saw a herd of eland. There are huge elephants everywhere, including many huge tuskers. On one one occasion a herd of elephants came up from behind us. We also saw zebra,and hippos. I saw many baboons,and one morning I woke up to the sounds of a troop of baboon barking because they had been pursued up a tree by a leopard.
I have to say that Gonarazhou is one of the finest National Parks which safari enthusiasts can visit because it's so off the beaten path. One about 2,000 people a year visit ,and most about 1,800 of them are people who come here on camping safaris. One will be listens constantly to the sounds of the bush at night. One will feel like they have the whole park to themselves,because one won't encounter neither other vehicles nor other vehicles for hours without seeing another vehicle or person.
I also have to say that Ant Kashula the owner of Gonarezhou Bush Camp lives up to his reputation of being one of the finest of all the new guides in Africa. He was simply amazing. He's a superb bushman, and a dedicated conservationist.He also has superb skills at dealing with people.I felt hat fly camping with him was simply superb.

We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Safari Hub to any and everyone who wishes to travel to Africa and we look forward to dealing with you again.

I enjoyed the best of travel services in my entire life at destination Mombasa.
Destination Mombasa has the best communications, best services and I can pretty well say with certainity that they lived past my expectation. The tour was amazing and I had the opportunity to see Kenya's wildlife through the camera in an amazing way. I would consider Destination Mombasa as my first option if ever I travel back to Kenya.
