Exceptional customer service and highly experienced, friendly and professional staff.
We'd been considering going through a larger company, but figured we'd also check out some smaller ones, including Instincts Safaris. We requested a quote and received a reply within a day from the co-founder Niels. He personally worked with us to customize our safari and make all the arrangements for our trip efficiently and thoroughly.
Our guide Rabani was very pleasant and knowledgeable of the region. We were really looking forward to the gorilla hike, and it surpassed our expectations. The hike did take four hours and was quite rainy (and muddy), but we were able to gather some amazing sights that made it worth the while. Accommodations were comfortable, especially refreshing after being outside all day. It was a wonderful trip, and I'd certainly choose them again!

An incredible, fullfilling experience.
I went for a 10 night safari with Ulinda in July of 2017, and it was an experience I won't forget for a very long time. The wildlife was incredible, the food and accommodations were spectacular, and the chance to get away from it all and spend 11 days was exactly what my body and mind needed.
The trip was not without a bit of drama, but Jane acted promptly and made the best of a bad situation, and it all worked out for the best in the end.
Driving around it seemed like most of the tour companies in Botswana use the large, open walled vehicles. And as someone who has been on 5 safaris before, I highly recommend against those types of vehicles. They have no protection from the elements so you freeze in the morning and roast in the afternoon, you get to spend 10+ days crammed in with 11 people you just met, and most importantly, there's nowhere to rest your camera for taking pictures.
Truth be told the vehicle type was the reason I chose Ulinda in the first place, but their accommodations and food totally blew my expectations away. A special shout out to Jane's staff who work really hard all day long to try and make the experience as amazing as possible for the guests.

Spent a week or so with guys from Nairobi to Nanyuki...best week ever!
BigFoot Adventures is the best of the best! Great group of people who do everything they can to make your trip one you will never forget! BigFoot will far surpass your expectations and show you everything there is to see in Kenya. They are amazing at what they do and they have fun doing it! Go with BigFoot, you won't be sorry!
For a day trip, Arusha National Park is pretty special.
I only had one day to spend on seeing wildlife after a week of work in Arusha. Arusha National Park proved to be a very accessible location. It is easy to get to and has an abundance of wildlife if you're prepared to spend some time to look around. It may not have all the animals, but if you go with the proper expectations you will not be disappointed.

the wildlife sanctuary
Tanzania is the perfect country for a safari trip. Here you find tons of animals, landscapes of breathtaking beauty, a wide range of accommodation and travel solutions. During the month of August, it is full of tourists but it is such a big country with such big parks that it remains a wonderful destination. In August the weather is perfect, hot but windy so it is bearable. Food is not a big point cause it is repetitive.

A lot of activities, need to spend more time only for Serengeti
Very interesting trip to Serengeti. Very useless and timeless trip to Natron Lake - I do not advice to go to Natron at all. Ngorongoro is too rather boring - it is impossible to see the rhinos!(( If I knew I would prefer only Serengeti - full 7 day tour following from south to the north with great migration.
