A note on Airalo
Airalo offers fixed-data Kenya packages. Choose a validity that covers the whole trip; the cheapest short package does not cover a week. A Kenya-only plan does not imply Tanzania coverage.

A note on Holafly
Holafly suits travelers who prefer a duration-based unlimited-volume plan. Hotspot and fair-use conditions matter for laptop work. Rural safari coverage is not guaranteed.

No independently measured network winner is established here. For safari, ask each lodge about its exact location and keep essential maps offline. A missing quote does not mean a provider has no suitable product.
