Wonderful 5 days with Engagi Safaris
I had 2 weeks to plan a trip to Uganda and with not much time to research what to do and see, I emailed Engagi Safari for some ideas and prices. Robert was very quick to reply to my emails and was also very accommodating when I keep changing my itinerary. I did the 5 days tour including gorilla trekking in Bwindi, chimpanzee all day immersion and QENP . A friend of mine who has done the gorilla trekking with Engagi Safari some years ago recommended them and after my 5 days with Kenneth of Engagi Safaris I couldn't recommend them more. I was a sole female traveler and they really looked after me. The accommodation choices were great and I felt I was in good hands the whole time. Kenneth is a good guide, lots of knowledge about birds and very passionate about the gorillas. The seamless arrangement by Engagi Safaris made my trip a very memorable one.

Excellent!
I had the best vacation! A vacation of a lifetime!! It was a trip that I had been wanting to take since I was A little girl. Engagi Safaris was recommended to me by a friend. He said that he had a great experience so I thought I would use the same company. I was going to be traveling alone so I wanted to be sure that I was going to be safe and with a reputable company. I was able to arrange a 13 day excursion with many adventures. Basiima Robert was an excellent guide and driver. He was able to set up a perfect itinerary for me that consisted of chimpanzee habitation, gorilla trekking, Ngamba Island, Nile Rafting, Lake Bunyonyi and game drives and so much more! I highly recommend Engagi Safaris for your trip to Uganda. You will not be disappointed. Thank you so much for giving me my trip of a lifetime. An adventure I will never forget

Incredible experience with Robert and his team
Engagi Safaris are very well organised, from the communication we received prior to the trip to the day to day "little things" that Robert and his team were so good at.
We couldn't have had a better time on our Uganda Safari and couldn't recommend Engagi Safaris more.

Fantastic Five Day Family Safari in Tanzania
My husband, two children (23 and 18) and I spent 4 nights and five days in Tanzania on the "northern circuit" in January 2017. All our communications with Wildersun, before and during the trip, were accurate and thorough. We received a detailed itinerary in advance, and Ervin Nunes, the company director, met us in Arusha both before and after our safari to review everything. Our driver and guide went above and beyond to ensure that we experienced the wildlife and natural beauty of Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park to the fullest. The lodgings were great, and the staff were very accommodating and attentive to every detail. This was our first visit to Africa and this trip exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely recommend this tour operator to others.

What an experience!
I finished the safari with my sister in January and we absolutely loved the experience! The way Bariki structured the tour, picnics during safaris and accommodation was fantastic and his knowledge made the experience unforgettable. Would definitely recommend his company!

Professional team and wonderful experience
It is an extremely awesome experience for six of us from China.
Alex is a genius, who helped us design the trip and took care of many details. He is a knowledgeable guy who is so professional and considerate. He ensured our transfer from Nairobi to Arusha to be such unexpectedly smooth.
Allen is quite a nice guy, who is not only a great driver, but also an expert in the field. He knew where to find the big cats and many other terrific animals. He led us to many rare scenes. His patience and earnesty maximized our pleasure throughout the trip.
We felt just like a family. I miss them and miss Serengeti. I am sure I will be back before long.

Best Safari Experience
It was a really good experience. We stayed at the outlook lodge in benoni as we arrived in the afternoon and the we were heading tonkruger park. The bungalow was very clean and all the people that worked there were amazing. We got to see the big 5, and many more animals.
Very good experience I'd definately recommend it.
Congratulations! I had the best time

Amazing experience!!
My boyfriend and me always wanted to go on a Safari in Tanzania, we have great expectations and the were totally fulfilled. We visit Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Serengeti and although 3 of them are different, each has its own beauty. It is a trip that I totally recommend. Thanks to Shemeji we had Fredy as a guide, who was wonderful explaining to us everything, answering all the questions and helping us with everything that he could.
Thanks so much to help us to had such an amazing Safari :)

Safari adventures in 5 of the National Parks of Kenya with a variety of accomodations.
The main strength of African Breeze is the owner Cate....who is determined to provide the best possible experience on each safari. She is excellent at communicating by email in advance, by text and phone in Kenya and in person....she was always available and would follow through with every plan that we made - organizing insurance coverage for the safari and purchasing bus tickets for us and dropping them off where we were staying even after our safari was finished. Indeed she felt like our guardian angel while we were in Kenya and always seemed to be there when we needed her.
Cate has the daunting task of coordinating drivers and visitors and dealing with the unexpected.
We had been expecting to be on safari with another couple but we never got to meet them as they postponed their trip at the last minute. We ended up on our safari with a private driver for the same cost. Spending 7 days together we learned about our driver and he would answer our questions about everything we saw. He admitted that he never knew what each day would hold in store for us....but there was never a shortage of animals or sights to see. Our vehicle was comfortable and we felt very safe. Our only suggestion was that a cooler with cold water would have been nice to have along...also to help keep our picnic lunch cool. We stayed in 4 different locations all well organized and comfortable but each one was unique so an interesting variety. The food ranged from fantastic to very good.... the only exception was the one day picnic lunch which was poor.
We enjoyed our initial 7 day safari so much that we used African Breeze again for a 2 day/1 night trip to Amboseli National Park. Cate organized for us to stay at a perfect camp and provided us with an excellent driver who was very passionate about Kenya and willing to share his knowledge and understanding of the country.
African Breeze made all of our Safari Dreams come true and we are very grateful to Cate for her skills and for her kindness to us.

Over the top wonderful!
Fabulous tour with Aardvark Safaris Tanzania. Our group spent the better part of two weeks visiting Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Oldupai Gorge, the Serengeti, and Lake Eyasi. All our accommodations were unique, welcoming and clean, including four nights at Katikati, a temporary camp in the Serengeti, where we dined in the open air and slept in canvas tents with toilets and showers. Driver guides Augustine and David were superb, with astounding knowledge of birds and mammals. Augustine went out of his way to make sure this trip exceeded our expectations. We've been on safari before. Compared to Aardvark, that earlier safari was more like visiting the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park. This was a true adventure, and we were in the best of hands.
