Professional and punctual.
Very well organized. Special call out to Amiri our guide, and Chef Emanuel for the lovely food in the Ngorongoro camp. Were able to see the Big 5 and made many memories!

AMAZING Safari! Thank you Afrishare for making our trip so special!
Truly an AMAZING experience! We could not have had asked for a better trip. A safari is a BIG trip with a lot of moving parts and variables (especially when traveling with kids), and Afrishare made it easy. From the very first interactions with Ibriham, who customized our trip to exactly where we wanted to go, what we wanted to see, and in what type of places we wanted to stay, Afrishare made the entire experience effortless. Everything was handled down to the smallest detail. We wanted to see A LOT in just seven days, and Afrishare made it happen. Our party of 7, including 4 children, flew into Nairobi and were greeted with a warm welcome. We then headed up to the Maisaa Mara with our guides Geofrey and Chris (who were our guides for the Kenya portion of our trip). Both Geofrey and Chris spoke impeccable English and were very kind and knowledgeable of the area and the animals. Geofrey even managed to find all the big 5 in our very first day of the Safari (we still cannot believe that he was able to spot that rhino!)
After a few days in the Mara, we then headed over to the Northern Serengeti, where we met up with our new guides Okuli and Moses (who were our guides for the Tanzania portion of our trip). Okuli and Moses were absolutely amazing!!!!! They were so fun, knowledgeable (they also spoke perfect English), kind, great with the kids, and just really fun to be around. They guided us through the Central and Southern Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park for the next four days to so many amazing sights. They always seemed to know just where to find the animals and were very patient with our many requests for pictures and stops.
All of the camps that Afrishare booked for us throughout our journey were also top notch. And, when our return flight home was cancelled the morning that we were supposed to depart, our guides were able to recommend and book us into another amazing lodge. Okuli and Moses did not hesitate to help us navigate our delay by ensuring that we had a place to stay and transportation to the airport the next day.
I really cannot recommend Afrishare more. They more than exceeded our expectations, and we will definitely use Afrishare for any future travel to East Africa. The kids are already asking when we can go back to Africa. We truly feel like we now have friends in Africa. Thank you Afrishare for making our trip so special!

Seamless connections and Profesional in all aspects.
Residing in Australia we reached out to Africa Incoming to plan a South African experience. Nelly was appointed our coordinator. Talk about efficiency and friendliness, she's hard to beat. She planned the whole experience giving us a complete SA adventure. We got a 4 day Cape Town exposure a 3 day east coast self drive a 3 day kruger immersion then 3 days in Johanneburg and Soweto. Every part of the tours was profesionally coordinated. Hotels expected us, drivers who drove us from point a to b allway arrived on time and were friendly and courteous.
Africa Incoming, as a company, seem to have an effective training program because if Nelly (our coordinator) is the standard by which the rest of the team operates they can only progress. (I did not get paid for this comment) She's very involved in you getting the best experience.
Anyone who has a concern about South Africa forget it. Its the friendliest place. In 2 weeks never felt in any way insecure. Beautiful people. SA is cheap, scenic, friendly and more importlay you have a great booking company and coordinator that has your back.

Really great experience
It was an amazing Tanzania Vacation Operation tour! First of all, our guide was extremely informed and had a keen eye for animals. He made my vacation to the Serengeti unforgettable by providing excellent transportation, accommodations that were clean and pleasant, and a well-planned tour that included delicious food. My booking process went smoothly because the personnel was very kind and quick to respond. Overall, the experience was better than I had anticipated. Strongly suggested for a Tanzanian vacation trip

The safari surpassed our expectations!
We were a bit skeptical about booking the trip with a local operator online from Europe, but it turned out to be an amazing experience!
We did a 3-day private safari tour to Masai Mara and stayed at Jumbo Mara Lodge. Everything was perfect- our guide picked us up from our accommodation, and the drive to Masai Mara was an adventure itself. We passed through Nakuru, the biggest city in the region, took in the stunning views of the Rift Valley, and got a glimpse of the local Masai people going about their daily lives.
Our guide, Daniel, knew Masai Mara like the back of his hand. He is so amazing that on the first two-hour game drive, we already saw three out of the Big Five and so many other animals in their natural habitat. He made sure we had the best time, helped us take great photos, and really made the whole experience unforgettable.
The lodge was beautiful a more like a 5-star hotel - with a fantastic pool and delicious food. They had great Indian and Kenyan dishes, as well as fresh fruit and other options.
Overall, an incredible experience at a great price. Would absolutely recommend!

Tinyiko was a wonderful guide. He not only has a thorough knowledge of South African history but he is very passionate about South Africa. He even had us singing along to one of his songs. I highly recommend him.
