Wasini and snorkel in the coral reefs of Kenya
Booking a trip with our guide Julius was an absolute delight! Not only is he incredibly friendly, but his services are remarkably affordable compared to others on the market. He accompanied me and a friend on a trip through Wasini and the surroundings of Mombasa, providing insightful commentary on every cultural and natural aspect we encountered along the way. His extensive knowledge about the local wildlife made the journey even more enriching. Moreover, his initiative to capture memorable moments through photography and instantly share them with us via Whatsapp was truly appreciated. Our excursion to witness dolphins in Wasini and snorkel in the coral reefs of Kenya was nothing short of amazing – we felt safe and well-cared for under his guidance. To top it off, he treated us to a delightful seafood lunch at a local eatery. It was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! His exceptional service has left such a positive impression that I eagerly look forward to joining him on more adventures next year.

All the travel with zambezi was amazing. Okavango delta was the highlight. Everything was perfect and Oscar, our driver and guide, was really kind and helpful. I recommend.

Looking forward to our next trip!
We traveled to Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amborselli. Everything was well organized and we felt very welcome. Our drivers John and Gioffre are the nicest people. We'd love to come back.

amazing
I had the pleasure to experience my first ever safari with Vwasu Expedition, back in March this year.
I decided to gift myself this experience for my 30th birthday, and let me tell you, that was the best thing I could do for myself. I’ve always wanted to explore Tanzanian nature, and thanks to Vwasu Expedition I was able to fully experience its beauty. During my stay I’ve seen lions, zebras, rhinos and many more animals, that I could’ve only seen on a TV screen. I will never forget the hospitality and kindness that I was treated with. I’m sure I will come back, this time with friends and family.

Once in a lifetime experience
My partner and I had a game drive with Bhekifa..where do I even begin...He said "today I'm going to find you a leopard" and he did spot one hanging on a tree from a distance, he was very educational, the best and patient game driver, he showed different types of birds, we also saw lions.. I don't know how to put in the right words but we had the best experience and it's all thanks to him...Bhekifa♡♡♡♡

Very funny, friendly, welcoming, and caring
Felt safe and well-informed about the journey in general - the tour guides have very good communication. Climbing a mountain can be very stressful but the crew made sure to keep us nice and relaxed which made the journey so much more enjoyable. It felt as if we were just climbing with our friends which is exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend these guys to everyone!

Extremely helpful and made the whole trip amazing!
The whole experience was very simple. Truffy was very informative and knowledgeable, and helped arrange a bespoke safari for me which met all my wants and felt comfortable and not too hectic. Communication was great, by email and whatsapp, and she even met me in Nairobi at the start and end of my safari to make sure everything went smoothly. I opted for the luxury accommodation and both properties were perfect; beyond my expectations. The driver and tour guide made the trip amazing, with his excellent knowledge of the country and wildlife. I'd say the booking was great value for money and I can't fault a single thing. I've already recommended them to a couple of friends and colleagues who are looking to book for next year.

An unforgettable experience
My partner and I had a trip of a lifetime thanks to Bamboo Ecotours. We did a 4 day tour involving a golden monkey trek at Volcanoes, and gorilla trekking at Bwindi.
Edison, the founder of the company, was exceptional when organising our tour - super quick with his responses, professional and attentive to our needs. He managed to provide us with an itinerary which suited our preferences, budget and was great value for money. We also had to book last minute but Edison was very flexible with the payment/refund policy.
Our guide Herbert was amazing - he was considerate, knowledgeable and skilful at driving! The roads in Uganda are no joke - super bumpy and muddy when wet. One of the most memorable times of our entire Africa trip was when on the morning of our gorilla trek, the one-way road which led to Bwindi was blocked by a broken down truck. With only centimetres to spare from the cliff's edge, Herbert safely and expertly did a U-turn and got us to the trek on time. He also made sure to contact the park so that even if we were late, we'd still get to do the trek.
Our accommodation at Mutanda Lake Resort was also a highlight. The views of the volcanoes in the background and the lake in the foreground will forever be etched in my memory.
What also sets Bamboo Ecotours apart is their commitment to supporting disadvantaged communities in the area who are overlooked by the tourism sector, by providing financial support and only hiring guides who come from these communities.
We highly recommend Bamboo Ecotours and will definitely be using them again when we're back in Uganda!
