What our travellers say
My wife and I went on our first safari and decided to use Afio Mai Africa Safaris. We had an incredible time! Tevin made planning our safari extremely easy and was very responsive to any questions we had. Our driver was very professional and knowledgeable about all the animals and birds. We saw the big five, the small five, the ugly five, and many others.
Our trip was meticulously planned right from the onset and everything fell in place like clockwork once the trip started. The tour operator understood that we would be traveling with kids who easily get bored, and crafted an action packed itinerary that ensured we all had a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Afio Mai Africa Safaris for professionally organized safaris, value for money and incredibly reliable communication before and during the tour.
From the first explanation that was given to myself and my husband, everything was extremely good and very professional. The staff and members of the team are excellent; they make you feel like you are part of the place. Keep up the great job, we are surely coming back.
It was an incredible experience; one we hope to repeat in Tanzania this time. Your staff, choice of locations, accommodation, food, personalized service, and beautiful animals far surpassed our expectations! We would not consider coming back with any other company.
Our driver-guide was perfect in every way: polite, pleasant, always on time, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable of the flora, fauna, and cultures of the Kenyan people. He was extremely helpful in making the trip perfect!
We all loved our safari, you thought of every detail to make the trip fun for all ages. I'm sure the children will return as they were in tears when they left. What a wonderful family holiday we have all had, every part of it a great success. Thanks for a magical two weeks!
We had a spectacular time! The trip exceeded every expectation. We can't thank you enough for all the time and effort you put in. It was great to meet new friends and see the great wildlife and African scenery.
Afio Mai Africa Safaris has set a new standard of travel for us that others cannot quite match. Rest assured, we will recommend Afio Mai Safaris to folks back home!
I have experienced the services of numerous tour companies, but our Afio Mai Africa safari was the best experience I have ever had anywhere in my travels! It was just flawless: from the arrangements, talking to your office, arrival in Kenya, to the warm welcome everywhere we visited.
I went with my wife on our honeymoon to Kenya and Tanzania, and you guys made it unforgettable. Special thanks to your expert travel planners who custom-made our honeymoon itinerary, and your knowledgeable driver-guides Moses and Andrew in Kenya and Tanzania. They were so great and always with a big smile on their faces.
