I used them for Kilimanjaro and had a fantastic experience. The guides Ellie, Richard and Paul were very professional and fun to be around. They pushed us when we needed pushing and I don't think we would have summited without them! Ellie has been a guide for over 20 years and was summited literally

Meagan Bradham, United States

Expect in Africa Safari exceeded my expectations. Our driver was Raymond. Raymond was extremely knowledgeable, he had an answer for every question we had. He was able to use his knowledge of birds and animals to locate every animal we wanted to see. He was professional and kind. We will be returning with our children and using Raymond again. We also loved the accommodations. We felt safe and the tents were clean and spacious. If you are considering safari, this company is who you need to book with. Read more
