Really good day out, just a couple of adaptions to make the day great
The price was great for what was included. The day started a bit sour for us though. Collected at 5am, for a 6:30am flight to be told we was on a 09:30am flight. We had to sit and wait for hours. No clear instruction at the airport. They also confiscate all bug spray which we wasn’t informed of which was quite stressful as we wanted to protect from mosquitos. Once we boarded the plane it was a pleasure from start to finish. So many animals at Mikumi and so many babies. Would 10/10 recommend. Just wished our collection time matched our actual flight time especially as we had a flight at midnight back to London it just made us more exhausted than we needed to be. 10/10 lunch at Mikumi though!! Arguably best food we’d had in Tanzania

Don't miss the Zohar teams!
We decied to order our trip to the Zohar having the good review on this site and others.
It was best choice for all we think.
The Zohar teams made a special good plan considering our every hope & set the 30th years marriage anniversary party at the camp site.
And at the last night presented the sparkling wine with our special label for our anniversary.
We have spend 8 days with the guide "Solo".
He searched the animals which we wanted to see including the big 5 from early morning & made all of them the true view.
He drived car to the good position and explain to us animals also birds using the illustrated book.
All of the selected hotels & the camp site were extream good on there service & view from assinged room.

A once-in-a-lifetime experience
I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Morningstar company during my recent trip to Kenya. Specifically, I would like to commend Dennis for arranging a truly unforgettable itinerary that surpassed all expectations.
My journey through Kenya, organized by Morningstar Tours, was nothing short of remarkable. From the moment I embarked on the game drives, I was captivated by the breathtaking beauty of Kenya's wildlife. Thanks to Dennis's meticulous planning, I had the privilege of witnessing some of the most awe-inspiring sights, making it an experience that will stay with me for a lifetime.
Moreover, I must commend the excellent accommodations and dining arrangements. The comfort and convenience provided throughout my stay were exemplary, ensuring that I could relax and fully immerse myself in the wonders of Kenya.
I would also like to extend my gratitude to Rono, our driver and guide, whose dedication and professionalism greatly contributed to the success of the trip. Rono's expertise behind the wheel was truly impressive, especially when navigating through busy highways with heavy truck traffic. His commitment to safety was evident at every turn, instilling a strong sense of security in all of us throughout the journey.
In conclusion, I want to commend Morningstar Tours Kenya for delivering a truly exceptional travel experience. Their attention to detail, commitment to customer satisfaction, and passion for showcasing the beauty of Kenya have left an indelible mark on me. I wholeheartedly recommend Morningstar Tours to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure in Kenya, especially my Chinese friends.

EXCELLENT ORGANISATION WITH A WONDERFUL GUIDE
We chose African polecat out of so many operators, because they are owned by a local (let's support he local business). Also they gave us a really reasonably priced fly in and fly out option (they picked us up at the hotel on Zanzibar and dropped us of there) and they were quick in responses and very reliable. Feel free to check out the places to stay and communicate them to James. He will adapt the itinerary accordingly. Also feel free to say where you wish to stay for another night (we stayed in Serengeti for two nights and it was magical).
Let me say this was the best experience of my life. Of course we saw so many different animals (you cant even imagine how many) but also our guide Manfred made this trip really special. He fulfilled all our wishes and went the extra mile (literally) to give us the best experience. He was so polite and kind and funny and educated. He told us not only about the animals and nature but also about the country and its people. He trully brought Africa closer to us. We have seen the big five (all animals at least 3 times except for Rhino which we saw once). If you are abut to book a tour, ask James if Manfred could be your guide. You won't be sorry.
What I liked about our itinerary was that it included enough time to actually see all the animals and at the same time experience all of the national parks. We flew in to Serengeti and then drove towards Arusha, where we flew from at the end of our trip.
All the drinks, food and everything else was provided by the tour operator and the hotels. I would recommend Moyo tented camp (an elephant and a giraffe visited it while we were eating lunch) as it is new and not so crowded. The car was really comfortable. I would recommend to bring at least one shirt for each day as it gets sandy because of the road. Also bring some sweaters as it tends to get colder at night.

Extremely valuable budget safari
My solo African adventure with 8 days budget safari in Kenya with several different locations has been fantastic! The animals exceeded all my expectations. Just keep in mind that you can't have too high expectations in terms of accommodation, vehicles and food if you choose a budget safari, but the amount and variety of animals you get to enjoy in any case. And personally, even as a 68 years old female, I thought everything flowed really well despite that you get to mingle with other travelers in a mini van (with a pop-up roof) and might have to change both travel companions and drivers during the tour. This review is based upon MY experiences and expectations. Do your reseach and make sure to explain what your preferences are and Benson will fix it!
My tour started with two days in Masai Mara where I saw and got close to a wide range of animals. Just amazing!
Had also an overnight stay in Nakuru and a nice safari in the national park. Did a boat ride on beautiful Lake Naivasha and stayed one night in Naivasha. Continued to Amboseli with an early morning stop at Hell's gate national park where it is possible to walk or bike among the animals.
The three last nights I stayed at a surprisingly good camp for beeing on a budget safari. And there I did two full day's amazing safaries and unexpectedly got to see a cheetah and a pygmy hippo among many other species and, of course, very many elephants!
All this was made possible to a very reasonable price thanks to Benson at Tall Masai Safaries. All my communication with Benson, from my first request, the pick up at the airport as well as during and after the tour, have been absolutely 💯 percent pleasant, smooth, clear, quick, flexible and correct all the time! So happy I found just this safari agent and I will certainly use them for any other safaries in Kenya and Tanzania. Very satisfied!!

perfect safari
I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the exceptional safari experience Z provided us and my group during our recent safaris. Fadhili and happiness’s professionalism, kindness, and unwavering commitment to ensuring our satisfaction made our trip unforgettable.
Safari by Z’s extensive experience in the safari was evident in the meticulous planning and execution of our every adventure. Fadhili was always ready with answers to our questions and insights into the rich biodiversity we encountered. His ability to adapt our itinerary to the changing routes and wildlife patterns was particularly impressive, ensuring that we had the best possible experience.
We truly appreciated happy and Fadhili’s flexibility in accommodating our requests. Safariz by Z was dedicated to providing us with a safe and enjoyable experience.
The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the opportunity to observe and learn about the incredible wildlife. Fadhili expertise in tracking and identifying animals was exceptional, and we were able to see so many species thanks to his guidance. The memories we made are priceless, and we will cherish them forever.
We highly recommend Safari by Z and Fadhili to everyone who comes on safari in Tanzania!

It was great
Despite facing unprecedented flooding and travel challenges, Safari Adventure was incredibly supportive, providing constant assistance and problem-solving throughout our journey. The camps they recommended were fantastic, meeting all our criteria for animal sightings. However, we encountered some difficulty with the refund process when redirected to a less expensive camp due to the conditions
