This was a once-in-a-lifetime tour!
My tour through Kenya was absolutely incredible. From the moment I was picked up at the airport by John and Simon, through my safaris at Lake Nakuru and Massai Mara, and back to our beautiful hotel in Nairobi, this was an A+ trip. Our driver and guide Simon was beyond incredible. He seemed to know exactly where each and every animal would be hiding during our safaris, providing the perfect amount of adventure and excitement. I cannot recommend this tour group more highly!

The organization ... a real surprise
we have been made a very fantastic and amazing safari and the most economical proposal. We made a 4 days-safari and they kept all their promises, we saw wonderful landscape and the guide and driver were very professional during Safari. Compliments. Giuseppe

A horrible journey and attitude
I regret the day I got in touch with this company. It was my expensive and pointless sport in my life - walk to Mandara Hut. 380 dollars (for 2 persons) for bringing you to a place from where you can not see anything beautiful.
The terrible experience began when it was time to start a new day with new adventures. We got up early in the morning to have breakfast before Kili Holidays arriving to the hotel to pick-up us. They arrived instead of the time (at 7:00) with an hour's delay (at 8:00), and only when they were called. There were 3 men in the car: a driver, a guide and a person who was collecting money. Nothing was arranged. We all went out to lunch boxes. It was only then that the journey began (from Arusha for more than two hours until Mandarin trail).
When we get there, a guide was no money to pay for the entrance. I need to pay this, although it was included in the price (we get back money when we arrive, but it shows the attitude). Upon starting the route, the guide said that we could not get up to the end, because we had to be back in time (although they were the ones who delayed). We went up to Mandara Hut, because we climbed quickly (there's nothing to see). The guide does not even lead us to the magnificent waterfall 200 meters from Route (the Mandara waterfall). I only noticed this when we returned (watching a photo on the Internet).
On the way home, I heard that the guide told the driver about the company and then I understood that none of them was working at Kiliholidays. They have been taken from the edge at the last minute.
Upon returning to hotel, a man who at start of the day charged money from us, was waiting us. (To make sure about how we liked, but in reality - he did not care. He thought he would get some tip, or something).
No one spoke to us either during the trip or during the climb.
We paid a lot of money just to be able to climb the beautiful trail and see and find out exactly nothing.
This company is badly organized.

Great 3-day safari
Everything was great from the first day.
We choose 3-Day Northern Circuit Special with accommodation at Ngorongoro O'Ldeani Mountain Lodge (2nights). We were at Lake Manyara National Park, Tarangire National Park, and the real treat - the world-famous Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
Our guide was ERICK MANYECK - a nice person who showed us the most beautiful places and listened to our desires and needs. Recommend! The car was comfortable. The journey was not overly tedious.
Everything was arranged perfectly from the company. Easy to understand plan. No hidden costs. Acceptable transfer rates from airport to hotel (arrived a day before the safari).
O'Ldeani Mountain Lodge was a paradise between safari trips, with 3 meals included (the lunch box that was given to the safari was very good).
A 3-day trip is the perfect to not get too tired.
Thanks, Shadows of Africa and Erick! :)

Best 2 days of my life
I just got back from 2 days safari with these guys, and it was just amazing. I booked it in the evening and the next day I was already at Tarangire national park befriending elephants. The service was impeccable and everyone went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and safe. When it came to nature and wild animals I was clueless and terrified, but the guides knowledge, which is out of this world, and appreciation of nature changed the way I think forever. With such a quality services, amazing staff and competitive prices (the best I could find in town), I could not recommend Mega Adventures enough. You just got to come and see this for yourself!!!

Had a great experience!
Many thanks to Twaha and Farouq for the great day exploring Jinja! They were able to organise everything on very short notice and I really enjoyed it! I will have to come back for the longer tours!

Reliable
We made a great trip to a number of National Parks in September. Our guide Livingstone spoke good English, was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. Everything went according to plan, nothing went wrong. The financial part was also carefully handled. We can definitely recommend High Peak Expeditions and organizer Hans Kitumbu.
