Joseph is top notch! He is a wonderful guide, providing and attending to all of the clients with information, great humor, kindness! He goes out of his way to see that the needs of his group are met in a gentle and effective way. He is a skillful listener. He is extremely trustworthy in all of the very facets of his being an excellent leader in Uganda. Highly recommended. I have arrived home a different person with enriching memories. Thank you so much!

Overall smooth experience
We booked Wildebeest Safaris after a lot of research and after talking to many different agents. Main differentiation was that they were able to arrange the camp that we specifically asked for (Entim) and the price was competitive. Also, before the trip we asked a lot of questions to Noah (the owner) and he responded to all of them with the requested assurances. We asked for a good guide and he allotted Dennis to us. We asked for unlimited Water and he agreed and he allowed us to pay balance on arrival instead of all advance (we initially asked for some payment at end of the trip which he refused)
We stayed at 2 days at Lake Nakuru (Flamingo Hill) and 5 days at Masai Mara (Entim Camp). Flamingo hill camp was very good whereas Entim was excellent. Stay at Entim was incidentless but the stay had Flamingo had a problem when we were leaving as there was some dispute between Wildebeest and Flamingo and they held us hostage till Noah went to their office and offered himself as hostage instead. It was probably a past payment dispute and we lost 2 hours while they were talking to each other. The good thing was Noah rushed to their office early morning so that we could be released and leave for our onward journey. Flamingo offered us a bottle of wine as a compensation for the inconvenience so it was good gesture on their part. So all in all it wasn't a very unpleasant experience and some glitches are a part of every trip.
Dennis was a great person to have as the guide. He was very patient, is vastly experienced with Masai Mara area, is a safe driver and is a fun person to talk to. He answered all our questions in relation to the forest or the animals and whenever he spotted an animal he knew which one it was. He also showed us the animal in his book which he carries with himself describing the animal and interesting facts about it. That helped in better understanding what I was seeing infront of my eyes. He also agreed to wait when we wanted to at a particular spot and was not forceful to leave unless it was dark and time to get back to the camp (we waiting 5 hours for the five Cheetah brothers to wake up from their sleep and he was waiting without cribbing). Even if we barely had little time left, he ensured we atleast got 5 mins with an animal sighting so that we dont go back disappointed. He was constantly calling his network of people on phone to ask for right places to visit and he wouldnt tell us what was there till we reached to create excitement and element of surprise. Probably just his style. We took bathroom breaks whenever we needed and ate packed lunch at whatever time we wanted. Even if we wanted to eat in the car, he didn't insist otherwise. He was very good with spotting animals from a far distance and he spotted some really good lions which anyone would have easily missed. Another good thing was that he was a keen photographer himself (we went there mainly to shoot) and hence he understood if we wanted some specific angles and took the efforts required for us to get the right shot. He was happy to take the car in any position we asked so that we could take satisfying pictures. He was always ready to leave on time and got us back only when it was time to leave. It was only once in Nakuru that he ended the Safari at 4pm instead of 6.30pm as he wanted to get his car fixed which should have been done before we arrived in Kenya so we lost about 2 hours there. But largely my experience with Dennis (as well as Wildebeest Safari) was a pleasant one and I recommend them to others as well.

our first trip to namibia
Namibia for the first time, there should nothing go wrong. Therefore, we have asked different travel agencies for information. Impala Tours gave us the best information overall. We gave them our desired route and Andre gave us the first proposal for the lodges of our roundtrip in German! He also offered us a suitable jeep, because we wanted to drive ourselves. After some more exchange, we booked the tour with him.
The journey could begin. Andre picked us up at the airport, gave us the keys for the jeep and escorted us to the first hotel. At this time, he told us that there are some changes in the tour, which we did not like at the beginning. But these changes were very well thought out. At the tour, there was a perfect mix between deluxe and basic camping lodges, just as we wanted. Every lodge was special with his own flair.
If we had any questions, Andre was always available and could quickly help us. So, if you want to travel to Namibia ask Impala Tours, one of the best agencies to book a custom tour. We can only recommend Impala Tours and we will definitely come back to Namibia with support from Andre.

I'm satisfied with Go East Safari Martha's service
I booked a 9-days Kenya & Tanzania safari with Martha at Go East Africa Safari /Big Time Safari. It's all went very well, especially I want to thank all the people working there: Martha, Steve, David ... They provided the best services from the first minute I landed Nairobi until the last minute I left the country. This is a totally trustable company for sure. 上個月我向 Go East Africa Safari 的 Martha買了一個九天的肯亞 & 坦桑尼亞旅程, 一切的安排都非常順利與安心, 他們提供了完整的個人服務, 每個環節都照顧周全, 我大力推薦這家公司..

Best safari company doing all they can to make your stay effortless and fun at the same time!
Everything was already set up making a great trip! They handled the transportation to the Mara, lodging, and safari’s. They do all they can to find you the big five, which is hard! Either way you see a lot of animals, in one day we saw a dozen lions and a million other animals. This company really knows what they’re doing to make it a trip to remember for their customers, highly recommended!
