Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Sina Wiedemann
Thick bushes where the animals can easily hide, so you don’t see them much:(

Amazing experience!
Masaii Wanderings was amazing right from the get-go. Donna was able to deal with all my bookings and silly questions (it was my first time to Africa so I had plenty). She was incredibly helpful, professional and courteous! Even with the changes I had, she was able to accommodate me first, and then 2 friends and their slightly different schedules as well!
The camp at Naona Moru (and Diana who runs it) is also amazing and I could go on about the camp but i've left a great review on trip advisor - https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g293751-d9830857-Reviews-Naona_Moru_Camp-Serengeti_National_Park.html
I'm told that this camp is use almost exclusively by Masaii Wanderings so I can assure you that it's an amazing camp!

An unforgettable tour from Johannesburg to Capetown.
In october 2014 we made an organized trip from Johannesburg to Capetown in 4 weeks. Our guide was Kobus de Jonge from the Jewel of Africa Safaris who showed an enormous knowlegde of the country, all the different people and their history as well as the animals we saw in the different parks we visited. Kobus was serious when needed and he could make us laugh when on a lot of other occasions. He was very helpful when one of the women broke her hip. He also organized a lot of things when we had free time. I think I can speak for the group when I say that he made this trip an unforgettable one !

Supreme Safari Organisers
My first experience of Africa Odyssey (then Tanzania Odyssey) was ten years ago when, after trying unsuccessfully with another very well known safari operator to arrange a Ruaha/ Katavi/Mahale trip, someone mentioned Tanzania Odyssey. I spoke to Marc who was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and came back to me within 24 hours with everything arranged to perfection!
Since then we have been on four more African safaris with them, all different and arranged for us on a personal basis with detailed knowledge of our likes and dislikes, and each has been a huge success. All have been enormously enjoyable and have been run extremely smoothly - no hiccups! We have had marvellous service throughout from Marc and Ted who personally know most of the camps well. We are thinking about another safari next year and would not dream of consulting another operator.

Short April Safari
Everything went well from the pick-up to the drop-off and all in between. The service and lodge were both excellent and we got to see many amazing animals thanks to our top-class guide Anthony who really tried his best throughout the trip. The Mara itself looked great and it was a privilege to spend even a short time there. I would certainly love to see it again in the not too distant future.

Wild Jungle Trails goes above and beyond!!
The experience of traveling to Uganda is life changing as it is, but finishing our trip with a safari under the care of Wild Jungle Trails is impossible to measure. This January will be my 4th year traveling consistently to Uganda and I am addicted! We travel with an organization (Hearts & Hope for Uganda) and finish each mission trip off with a safari. Lukwago Twaha has been our guide every year and I can't imagine traveling with anyone else. The drive from Kampala to Murchison falls may be long, but worth every minute. I highly recommend the evening AND the early morning safari via the Paara Safari Lodge. I honestly feel that we had an inside track to the location of all the animals we wanted to see. These guides go above and beyond to not only give you an amazing experience within the park, but to educate you as well.
We also take a trip up the Nile to see Murchison Falls from the base of the Nile....along the way we have seen elephants, giraffes and of course a ton of hippos...
On our last day our guides take us to the north side of the park to see the top of Murchison falls....It is truly my favorite spot in the entire world....
Uganda is beautiful in itself, but if you don't have the right guide, you miss so much. I am a small business owner in America and my time is limited to take off...The right drivers/guides make all the difference in maximizing your experience in a country that offers so much. Wild Jungle Trails is the only choice to an amazing African adventure. It's not just a safari...it's a life changing experience.

Seeing Gorillas in Uganda with Encounter Africa
I had an excellent trip with Encounter Africa to see gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable forest. They provided an excellent guide for the trip (I traveled alone), all transportation, and booked my hotels and gorilla tracking permits. The costs were reasonable and they were flexible, polite and responsive. I would recommend them.
