We had Danford as our guide, he did great to find the animals and also go the extra mile if we wanted to see anything special. Very knowledgeable and friendly!
Our guide Danford was really great! He took us to amazing places to see all the best parts of the natural park. We saw the big 4! :)
The team was very professional and accommodated all our requests. We were welcomed very nicely by pilly and wiliom. Even they helped us with additional day stay in last minute. Guide and staff at our camp were very kind and took very good...
The safari with Kihindo Tours and Safaris was a great experience. Everything - from the meeting at the airport before the safari, to the transfer to the hotel after, was a good team effort. I really liked the place to stay - Lilac lodge!...
