this was one of the best trips of my life, and that is 100% because of the amazing tour guides ( and ) that I had throughout this whole trip. Not only were they the best at finding the animals for us, they also were so good at anticipating group needs, keeping us safe, helping us to have fun, etc. They bent over backwards to make sure I had the best trip ever and it worked. I will miss them forever. Besides that, I have never been so well fed in my life than on this tour. The hotels we stayed at had the most comfortable beds. My favorite thing was not having to think for 1 second during the trip.

This was the adventure of a lifetime, I absolutely loved it. If you're at all inclined toward a safari trip or even on the fence about it, I'd say book it now and you'll have a new favorite vacation after it's over. Between seeing all the different animals up close, seeing Kilimanjaro, visiting a tribe, the hot air balloon ride, the slum visit, the different landscapes and national parks, and just being in such an exotic location, it made for an amazing trip. After just a day or two it felt like we'd already experienced an entire trip's worth, but we were only 20% done at that point.
I'd also say absolutely do both the Kenya and Tanzania portions. You're going all the way to Africa so you ought to take advantage of doing as much as you can while you're there.
