An once in a lifetime experience!
My wife and I have just finished a three-weeks tour in Kenya, a beautiful country that we both love so much. During our tour, we took a 8 days road safari with Tazama Holiday and Antony who made it an once in a lifetime experience for us. This is the rightest choice that we have ever made.
When I started my Kenya plan, it is quite difficult for me to pick up a safari company among so many named ones in Nairobi. In order to save time, I searched on Safaribookings and checked with a couple of companies whose quotation can match my budget and expectations. Tazama Holiday popped out finally because they has a very reasonable price and a very understanding owner Antony. My contact with Antony is always straight and frankly. He not only gave me his comments and suggestions on my itinerary, but also quoted in a very detailed and transparent way. Proof by facts, the safari with Tazama is incredible fantastic and value for money which will stay in my mind forever.
I am quite lucky cause Antony conducted my safari by himself with a brand-new Land Cruisier, and this made our whole journey full of fun and surprise. The accommodations he chose for us are not only comfortable but also have the best view. Whenever we had any little problems with the camp, he can always fix it up immediately through his kind relations with the camp management. My wife always likes to call Antony a problem fixer. Even more in Samburu, he gave us an update when the camp we originally booked was closed due to the flood.
Our game drives are really exciting and amazing both in the morning and the afternoon. We traced and witnessed the Special Five in Samburu, and the Big Five in Masai Mara. My wife and I prefer the giraffe and elephant, and he gave us a lot of chances to see these beautiful creatures in an unbelievable close distance and nice position, giving us complete satisfaction on our safari tour.
When Antony got to know that I will take a fly-in safari to Amboseli, he even helped me to book the air ticket with a very favorite price while not requesting me for any deposit in advance. Furthermore, he even provided us a complimentary drop-off&pick-up service to and from the Wilson airport. Antony, thank you soo much for doing me such a big favor.
Kenya is a destination that we will return for sure. Next time, maybe Tsavo West&East, Zanzibar and others. I think I will no longer trouble myself anymore. All I need to do is to just send an email to Antony, and let Tazama Holiday to arrange everything for me.
From my point of view, Tazama holiday is surely not the biggest, nor are they the No. 1 ranked company, but they are more personalized, more attentive, and more tailor-made, If you are expecting and planning a safari in this wonderful grassland, just go with Tazama!

Awfull experience, cheaters!
I had a tour with this "company" in december.
First of all, they do not do tours, they just resell tours of the BIG TIME Safaris - https://www.safaribookings.com/p570
Or maybe it is the same company operating under 2 names...
Due to bad communication from their side I lost 1 day of my safari + I had to pay 350$ extra for their mistake! They did not send me any compensation. Instead - they just started to ignore me once the issue appeared they, so I had to find solution by myself.
I Higly DO NOT Recoomend neither this company as well as Big Time Safaris!

An adventure we will never forget!
We highlighy recommend anyone travelling to Africa to get in touch with Cuan at African Ubuntu. Cuan did an outstanding job organising our trip to South & East Africa. It was an unforgettable trip and more magical than we ever imagined!
Cuan took the time to understand our travel interests and planned the trip to perfect - from transfers, selection of camps and safari tours.
Cuan was always willing to help, answering all of our queries promptly (not only during the planning stages but also during the journey).
Thank you again for a trip of a lifetime!

A fabulous trip! Saw the Big Five!
We had a great experience with Seven By Far in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Diani Beach and Nairobi, thanks to Sylvester and his team. The value they provided was greater than any other company offered - including baloon safari, complimentary hotel in Nairobi, lunch at Carnivore, etc. Everything was arranged flawlessly. Though I have to say more responsiveness and proactive communication before the trip could have reduced some headache and frustration. This is the only improvement area. Travellers with family/ children don’t like uncertainty. Let them know every detail proactively before the trip. Don’t make them ask the same question multiple times.

A trip of a lifetime made possible by Jumbari.
Our daughter has been teaching English in Lesotho for the past 16 months. My husband and I along with our two sons, age 16 and 21 traveled from the United States to Africa for a long awaited visit. Jumbari helped us set up wonderful accommodations at Klaserie River Lodge at Krueger national Park, Batonka Lodge in Victoria Falls and Imbabala Lodge near Botswana. Overall we went on 6 bush drives, 3 river cruises, 1 bush walk, a canopy tour in Victoria Falls and a tour of the falls. Everything was amazing. The rooms were perfect for us and our older children. The food was awesome. Everything Jumbari suggested was perfect for our family. Jumbari set up everything for us, including multiple transfers for our various outings, flights to Zimbabwe and our accommodations. Everything went totally smooth. No surprises and all of our transfers showed up on time and were very helpful. If we ever make it back to Africa I wont hesitate to use Jumbari again!

We had an incredible experience. Couldn’t have asked for a better operator to take us on safari
Mike is so personable and accommodating.He collected and drove us to Zambia and was a great host. The lodge we stayed in South Luangwa was comfy, clean and had everything we needed. We stayed for 3 days doing morning and night safaris. It was AMAZING. Everything was really well organised. Couldn’t recommend it more. Brilliantly organised, highly professional and great great fun. 5 stars

Our eight-day safari for four people with Travel for Change Africa exceeded our expectations in so many ways. Patricia, the organizer, was easy to communicate with and attentive to our wishes for our safari experience as she planned the itinerary. Our guide was knowledgeable and personable, taking into consideration our particular interests and curiosity as he planned each day. We never tired of our explorations, with new sights, discoveries, and experiences every day. The types of accommodations varied, too, from tent camps to inviting lodges, and we enjoyed them all.
