overland budget tour company?
 
Hello, I have never been to Africa, and I am planning to go this fall. I would like to use a budget tour company, but there are so many online, and I do not know which one to trust. I would like to visit Kenya and Tanzania. Does anyone have any suggestions? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Zara is a budget company operating out of Moshi, Tz.

I've traveled several times with Intrepid. But if you want true overlanding (i.e. a big bus/van and camping) the major outfit is Dragoman. Otherwise you could also look at Imaginative Traveller, Exodus, Explore! and Gecko/Peregrine.

Hola Traveling_chica,
Last year my friend and her boyfriend went to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru with Game Viewers Adventures and they said it was wonderful. They even showed me the hats they were give and said they visited a carnivore.Am thinking this end of year i can do with them. If you find their services good please post me so i can get more on them.
