A relatively small country with an endless variety of landscapes and wildlife.
The wildlife was like nothing I've seen before in my life. Giraffes, lions, monkeys, wildebeest...just about everything you usually picture about Africa, except real and in close proximity. At one point, we even had an elephant blocking the road! That's just something you can't experience in the states. The weather in June was surprisingly mild with highs in the 80s. Scenery was fantastic. I couldn't believe the vast array of landscapes, from vast plains to craggy mountain ridges. Food was starchy and filling. Not the best food ever, but something you could handle for a few weeks. Overall, though, an incredible experience with wonderful people.

Uganda - the undiscovered beauty
We operate together with the inhabitants of a small village north of Mityana a humanitarian project in Uganda to improve their lives sustainably. In 2009, we have for the first time together with our children (teenagers) Uganda. An absolutely worth experiencing country. In Kampala, as in many cities of other developing countries to feel optimism. In the country however, the time has stopped and the people live largely in poverty and subsistence agriculture. It is striking that all the automotive business of Indians and Pakistanis can be controlled. The chinese start the exploitation of large oil deposits seen in the northwest. therefore, the roads built in the resource-rich regions very well. European hotels are found only in large cities. But who can get along without electricity and warm water does not necessarily need to take a shower, can also opt for an African hotel.
Etosha is a beautiful wild space where you can quickly get really close to nature.
Everyone in our group loved Etosha. The scenery is stunning particularly out round the pan and the facilities were excellent to return home to. Even though it was the wet season we saw lots of game and the highlight was seeing - and videoing - a cheetah kill on the edge of the pan, where a mother winged a springbok so that her cub could make his kill.
Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by theterrribleone
There must have been a million flamingos. If I had not seen it myself, I would have never believed the "pink lake" was pink because it was covered with flamingos.
Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by theterrribleone
The Masai Mara was where we witnessed the great wildebeest migration, complete with crocodiles, lions, and vultures. As the trip progressed, our accommodations got progressively more "bush", with the last being tents with no fences, no electricity, and Massai guards. An amazing, awesome experience.
Amboseli: An Absolutely Awesome Safari Destination
Amboseli was the first destination on our safari. What an awesome introduction to African wildlife! Even before we got there we saw groups of hippopotamus, elephants, crowned cranes, many sorts of antelope, wildebeest, and many other animals and birds. We stayed at the Oltukai Lodge, from which many elephants, in particular, were seen. On our first outing, there were lions, hyenas, flamingos and many other water birds, wildebeest and zebras, and many other antelope and birds. It was beyond our wildest dreams. We had thought maybe we might get to see an elephant, and probably some antelope. The reality was so much more stunning than our preconceptions that it was mind-blowing. We were able to see and obtain excellent photographs of the "big five". It was truly the trip of a lifetime. I am so glad we went!
One of the particularly nice things was the weather. I don't think it was above 73 degF or below 67 degF at any time during the trip. Most amazing of all was the lack of bugs. We had spent hundreds of dollars on mosquito-proof clothing, sprays, shots, etc. There wasn't a single mosquito. All in all, it was a majestically fine trip. I recommend it highly.

Review about Kenya Expresso Tours and Safaris by Wajahat Mahmood
We took one night Safari at Maasai Mara with Balloon Safari after reading the reviews at Trip Advisor. KET really deserves to be #1 Safari management company! We really tasted the meaning of Customer Delight as we were offered many services without negotiations!
1. Firstly we had a handsome discount from Paul as we referred another family to KET.
2. Then we were offered a special game drive though we paid for one only, and eventually we had more than just two game drives.
3. Then the Guide name Lucky was really helpful and he even took us to Mara Triangle and Mara River which was not included in the package. Due to his efforts we could see the early Wildebeest migration from Kenya to Tanzania due to heavy rains there.
4. We were even taken to Keekorok Hotel and its lake which was not asked by us during the booking.
5. And above all, we were given free ride from Maasai Mara to Nairobi through Safarilink Cessna though we only paid for driving back for 4 hours to Nairobi. Paul even paid us the taxi fare which we had to pay from Nairobi Airport to our residence.
6. The Sentrim Lodge arranged by them was really very comfortable
I really recommend Kenya Expresso Tours and Safaris to all who want to have a real taste of African Safari adventure!
