Combined safari and beach holiday in Kenya

Lewa Wilderness for 3 days; Karen Blixen for 3 days; Kinondo Kwetu hotel for 6 days. Excellent safari camps. Accommodation at Lewa especially civilised and spacious. Kinondo Kwetu excellent - service; food; location. Only disappointment was ensuite room which was cramped.

Safari to Masai Mara and Lower Zambezi, staying in first class lodges

My wife and I arranged the itinerary in conjunction with Safari Consultants, who have extensive knowledge of East and Southern Africa. We stayed at Serian Camp in the Masai Mara, Chiawa and Old Monoro on the Lower Zambezi River. These were return visits to areas we are familiar with, and were chosen for the quality of accommodation, game viewing opportunities, variety of activities, food, and excellent photography. We were extremely pleased ...

We have used Safari Consultants on several previous holidays, and are extremely knowledgable about East and Southern Africa. Although we also have considerable experience of the locations, Safari Consultants are able to suggest alternative programmes. There advice is sound, and valued. They offer good value for money for the overall package. We will continue to use their expertise with any of our future plans.

Surpassed all expectations !

Safari guides were outstanding, camp was well run, food was fantastic, accommodations were spot on. The staff accommodated our agenda for safari and were very knowledgeable. Highly recommend Safari Consultants and the Off-beat camp as Masi Mara, Kenya - a truly wonderful experience.

An unbelievably great family safari experience. To quote two grown up children who have travelled the world with me "definitely the best holiday yet".

Excellent

We went to two safari camps in Kenya which were both excellent (Lewa Wilderness and Little Govenors). We then went to the Seychelles for 5 nights. Our holiday was excellent and the programme organised by Safari Consultants was very much appreciated. All arrangments went well.

jane walker was excellent in planning our itinerary. 4 different camps all with a different feel and experience, great variety and exposure for our first safari.

4 Safari experiences in one holiday

All the connections, meeting and greeting went like clock work. We stayed at Oliver's Camp, Gibbs Farm and Serian Camp followed by a few days in Zanzibar in the Breezes Beach Club. We would recommend all 3 as excellent in all departments. Beware the coast is normally windy and cloudy in July and August, but warm. Gibbs is very cold---fleeces needed. Tsetse fly were not a big deal. We recommend an overnight stay in Stonetown in Zanzibar town

Rob Slater spent a lot of time on the phone to us and we were very pleased with his recommendations. There is no substitute for personal knowledge.
