Amazing! - What can I even say. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Black Santa arrived on time at 5am, he was courteous, well humoured and very clearly loves his job. The drive is long from Nairobi but Black Santa keeps you informed of where you are, when you will be stopping and where the washrooms will be available. We stopped once at a rest stop which had food as well as a big gift shop (I will say we felt the prices were quite high as we found similar items for less but you are not pressured to buy) We were lucky enough to see Mount Kilimanjaro on the way to the park gate as well as wild giraffes which is apparently quite rare! In the park, we saw zebras, buffalo, antelopes, gazelles, hippos, copious amounts of different birds including flamingos and amazingly herds of elephants. It was such a privilege to see these animals in the wild and Black Santa was great at getting us close to them. Lunch was great. Lots of variety and I was looked after as a vegetarian too! Overall, I would highly recommend this tour. It's well organised, well run and an all round fantastic experience!

Santa's rollercoaster ride - Santa is a well informed and good humored guy. The Toyota seems to be the most robust car we ever sit in. The views in the park with the Kilimanjaro in the background we're just amazing. We saw a lot of elephants (very close), buffalos, zebras, giraffes, antilopes....it was totally worth it!
