I used Roy Safaris for a trip to Kenya and Tanzania in Sept. I would give them a 10+. Great service and prices. I looked into Tauck and Thompson, but for what I wanted to do, they were about $2,000 per person more than Roy Safaris.

Have only used Roy Safaris but I would give them a 10. Great guides who know their stuff. Clean land cruisers that are specifically modified to Roy Safari specifications - even down to strategically placed cupholders. Everything went like clock-work. And their prices could not be beat!

we worked with Tracey at www.intoafrica.com and were thrilled with our private safari, which was actually less expensive than the group safaris offered by Thompson. Most other people we saw on our trip were doing a private safari. Check it out.

Last July we did a 2 week safari to Kenya and Tanzania from Safari Magic. It was private and everything was superb. Drivers and guides were knowledgeable and fun. Everything went like clockwork and we felt safe and well attended to. Recommended.
