Amazing
The organization was top from beginning to end! Pick up in Naivasha and bring back to Nairobi no problem. our driver was really great and made a real effort. We had one of those little busses where you can stand and look out of the open roof. Room and board were convenient ... you may not ask for too much for a price of $ 300 ... had to send $ 100 via PayPal and then pay the rest locally. Currency is not a problem. have seen everything except rhinos. We recommend.

Amazing company - highly recommend! - 3 day Gorilla Trakking
I did a number of tours around Africa and my experience with Prime Safari's was by far the best. The vehicle was of a high standard, always clean, well stocked and safe - everything in working order, including the A/C (which is rare in Africa!).
My tour guide was Peter, who was nothing short of exceptional. Not only was he positive and well presented each day, but his manner was consistently kind & welcoming, at all times went above and beyond to ensure I had a great trip and was safe and ok at all times. He is extremely knowledgeable in many areas and is happy to share this with you.
We stopped at the Equator line on the way there which was fun. The Gorilla trekking day itself was incredible, we did Mgahinga National Park, took around 1 hour hiking and we found the entire Gorilla family we were trakking, including 3 Silverbacks!!! After the hike we went to Lake Bunyoni, which was so beautiful.
At all times I felt safe (solo traveller), accomodations were all of a very high standard, Peter ensured I always had plenty of water and food - he buys fresh bananas for in the car in case you need a snack which was so kind! We did plenty of stops for restroom and coffee/snack breaks. Oh there is also wifi in the car! Bonus!
All up I had such a wonderful time, would so HIGHLY recommend using this company (ask for Peter if you can!!) and I would use them again in a heartbeat.
Thankyou Peter for a trip of a lifetime!!

Amazing Safari tour !
We had an amazing tour by our guide named Aroni. He knew the best timing and places and we saw all the animals. He was also very talkative and friendly and taking good care of us.
Worked like clockwork
Encompass Africa put together a bespoke tour for us. This meant the merging of different experiences, different countries and different on the ground tour operators. The experience was fantastic; everything from the standard of accommodation through to the experience of the various guides. Encompass Africa were easy to deal with, excellent communicators and planned everything down to the last detail. I would recommend this company highly.

A great safari beyond my expectations
Everything was excellent about my experience with Love Uganda Safaris. Response time for booking my safari was very fast with several quotes to choose from. Our tour guide picked us up on time and made sure that we had everything we needed. He literally took care of everything. He did a fantastic job taking us out to look for game and went out of his way to find lions for us to see. The accommodations we stayed at was very nice and the food was excellent. We had a fantastic time on our safari and would definitely book with them again.

Exceptional! Would recommend RajaTours to anyone.
Gary and I absolutely loved our safari.
Communication with Rajab was very good from day one on through our return.
Khalifa was a very knowledgeable and fun guide. He was also a safe driver. All the lodging was of high quality and the food was wonderful. With Khalifa’s expertise in seeking out the many animals and identifying the different species, we could not have experienced a more rewarding time. We both rate this the top vacation experience we have ever had. We highly recommend the itinerary and felt the value of the trip for the cost was exceptional. Thank you again for making the trip of a lifetime so special.

Exceptional experience in every detail beautifully blending warmth and quality.
This trip was a "bucket list" treat for a 70 year-old family member who has had limited opportunity to travel and it absolutely could not have been more successful. To start with the basics, every detail re: transport; schedule; etc was implemented perfectly and seamlessly. Staff at our lodges were extraordinarily warm, regularly going above and beyond to assure that her dream came true. And so it did. Accommodations and food were lovely and well-managed; settings were stunningly beautiful. And, especially because the guides were so knowledgeable, flexible and persistent, the core of the trip - the quality of the drives and the wildlife viewing - was exceptional, including a memorable morning spent following a pack of wild dogs! Wonderful memories linger!

An unforgetable memory
My friend and I spent one unforgettable week with Abu from Longway Expedition in the central and north Serengeti last August. I was expecting a lot from this Safari and all my expectations were filled. Everyday has its own surprises and memorable moments. the landscapes were astonishing and the wildlife thriving. Abu made sure that we were the first on the go and the last back at the camp everyday to enjoy the most of our days. Abu is a very kind, interesting and knowledgeable person who has been trying very hard to give us unforgettable memories and we are grateful to him. Thanks to him we saw the migration, did a walking tour and enjoyed incredible views and moments on the vast plains of the Serengeti
I strongly recommend anyone willing to go on a safari to travel with Longway expedition. Ann will make sure to support you on your travel planning while you are abroad and reveals to be of great help. And for those of you who have enough time, they are also offering trips to the Lushoto area which is astonishingly beautiful.

An amazing experience!
I booked through Intrepid, but as this was a short tour a local guide was hired. A great choice! Thanks Hannington for sharing your extensive knowledge on Uganda and all the wildlife, for keeping us informed of the itinerary for the next day, for getting us safely to each destination and for ensuring we were well prepared for our gorilla trek. The trip was well organized and seamless, allowing us to just focus on enjoying the wildlife, the culture and of course the gorillas. A trip of a lifetime I won't ever forget!

Brilliant Holiday from Start to Finish
Our dream trip to Africa was perfectly orchestrated by the knowledgeable and dedicated staff at Wayfairer. Every suggestion was spot on! The accommodations were fantastic and exceeded expectation. We did not encounter any problems throughout our entire stay. We wholeheartedly recommend Wayfairer travel and look forward to booking with them again.
