Superb - Our journey to Amboseli National Park with Team SAWAS (Super Africa Wildlife and Adventure Safaris) was a remarkable experience. The park's iconic landscapes, dominated by the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop, provided a stunning setting for wildlife encounters. Team SAWAS demonstrated exceptional knowledge and passion, enriching our safari with insightful information about the diverse flora and fauna. From close-up views of elephants to observing a myriad of bird species, every moment was a celebration of East Africa's natural wonders. The seamless coordination and attention to detail by Team SAWAS ensured a smooth and enjoyable safari, making our time in Amboseli National Park an unforgettable adventure in the heart of the wild. Shoutout to Mr Martin and team

Amazing Experience - Would Recommend 100% - The safari was incredible from planning with bryan to pick up from the airport with our driver guide Joseph. We did 5 days masai mara, lake nakuru, lake naivasha and we saw a lot more animals than expected, and they were closer too. Joseph was brilliant, he was super knowledgable and able to sport the animals from far, he looked after us very very well. He is the reason for our first safari experience very special. Would 100% recommend this company, and we will book again next time we plan another trip.

Amazing experience! - I enjoyed this 5 day safari so much! It was definitely something that everyone must do! You get to explore and learn so many new things! I had the pleasure of having Tom as my guide, and wow, I cannot say enough good things about him! He went above and beyond to ensure that we saw everything we wanted and was so knowledgeable giving us so much additional information about each place! Masai Mara was amazing, especially the Enchorro Tent Camp where everyone was so nice and it was interesting to learn more about the Masai culture! I had so much fun on this trip and cannot wait to come back to Kenya and explore some more (with Tom as our guide of course)!
