Great tour! The guide was really enthusiastic and could tell a lot about the park and about all animals we asked him about. We were only with the two of us and the drive still continued. We were picked up in time. The driver/guide didn’t ask for food or anything (in other parks this always happened to us). We didn’t want to go to the Maasai village and that was no problem at all. Would recommend totally!!

I appreciated that the tour still went on after a group had to postpone their trip and I am a solo traveler, therefore being the only one on the trip. Was a great day seeing the wildlife. I was not as excited about the Masaai village part of the tour and could easily have skipped this.

Alex was an amazing host, he communicated everything very clearly the day before and arrived on time for pick up. He was friendly and such an informative guide during the safari. He made sure we saw as many of the wildlife as clearly as possible. A great day spent, highly recommended.

Our guide was prompt and great. We had an excellent game drive, and witnessed a ton of elephants. We were also lucky to spot a lion, and zebras, wildebeests were aplenty. It was a cloudy day so we couldn’t see Mt. kilimanjaro, but overall a great game drive.
