[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very helpful when the posters list the particular company they used. Interesting no one so far has used any of the big name operators like Tauck, Nat Geo, Disney, etc.[/quote] Because those are US-based companies who then contract with an in-country company to actually do the safari. You pay a premium for them to act as a middleman. Not worth it. [/quote] And to add to this (I'm the PP who just went in Mar 2023), there are HUNDREDS upon HUNDREDS of safari companies out there. Essentially, they're all going to provide you with a similar product. Many of the guides who work for these safari outfitters are freelancers and get contracts with many tour operators. So for example, "Ben" gives a 5-day safari with "Best Safari Kenya", then in a week, he does a one week safari with "Africa's Best Safaris". I used SafariBookings.com to help me pick a tour operator. It worked out just fine. [/quote]
