What travellers remember

“The Mara conservancy stay changed the whole trip. Private guiding, no crowding, and evenings that felt considered rather than scheduled. Shishi Footsteps wrote the days around us, not a brochure.”

“Travelling with children can be noisy planning. Ours was not. Family tents, a private vehicle, and enough rest that the kids still wanted one more game drive. Amboseli and the coast sat together without feeling rushed.”

More Kenya reviews

“We asked for safari mornings and a proper round at Vipingo. Tee times, transfers and the last sundowner all landed. It felt like one journey, not two holidays glued together.”

More Kenya reviews

“They timed the Serengeti camp to the herds, then gave us Ngorongoro as a single, early crater morning — not a checklist. The migration felt like weather: present, moving, never promised on a given hour.”

More Tanzania reviews

“Tarangire’s elephants and the crater rim stay were the chapters we still talk about. Logistics stayed invisible. That is rarer than people admit.”

More Tanzania reviews

“Zanzibar after the dust was the right kind of quiet. Stone Town one night, then a beach lodge with nothing to prove. Shishi left honest recovery time between the last game drive and the first swim.”

More Tanzania reviews

“The gorilla hour in Bwindi was steep, muddy and completely worth it. Permits, porters and the lodge the night before were handled before we ever thought to ask.”

More Uganda reviews

“Queen Elizabeth’s boat time on the Kazinga and the chimps at Kibale made Uganda feel wider than a single trek. Our advisor kept the driving days honest.”

More Uganda reviews

“We added a round at Tooro between forest days. It should have been awkward. It was not. That is the Shishi difference: the itinerary still had a pulse.”

More Uganda reviews

“Kigali to the volcanoes is a beautiful drive, and the gorilla morning was as carefully paced as everyone said it would be. Golden monkeys the next day felt like a gift, not an add-on.”

More Rwanda reviews

“Akagera surprised us: real savannah, boat light on Lake Ihema, and a night that was quiet in the best way. Rwanda is compact, and Shishi used that well.”

More Rwanda reviews

“We played Kigali Golf Resort, then went to the forest. Championship turf and mountain mist in the same week. The proposal read like someone had actually walked the days.”

More Rwanda reviews

“Sabi Sand guiding was as good as we had hoped, and Cape Town afterwards had room to breathe. Wine country was not a rush through tasting rooms. It was lunch, light, and a late table.”

More South Africa reviews

“Private reserve nights, fewer vehicles, and a lodge that cooked as if it mattered. South Africa can feel easy. Shishi made it feel chosen.”

More South Africa reviews

“Garden Route golf, then a quiet coast. Tee sheets were protected, clubs arrived, and nobody was improvising at the first tee. That is all we wanted.”

More South Africa reviews

“Sossusvlei at first light is a photograph you walk into. Distances in Namibia are real; Shishi flew the legs that would have stolen the days, and kept the road where the landscape deserved it.”

More Namibia reviews

“Desert-adapted elephants, night skies, and a camp that understood silence. We did not want a busy safari. We were not given one.”

More Namibia reviews

“Etosha waterholes in the dry months were magnetic. The itinerary never pretended Namibia is small. That honesty is why we will go back.”

More Namibia reviews

“The Delta was water, light and a camp that felt private without being precious. Mokoro time was slow in the way you hope Africa will be, and never is when the days are overpacked.”

More Botswana reviews

“Chobe elephants from the water, then Savuti for predators. Two camps, enough nights, no filler. Shishi matched the water, not the brochure.”

More Botswana reviews

“We wanted quiet luxury and got it: small aircraft, a guide who could wait, and evenings that belonged to us. Botswana is expensive. This one earned it.”
