Uma das melhores experiências da minha vida
5/5

Fomos em lua de mel para Tanzania. O safari maravilhoso, o nosso guia, Joseph, foi fundamental. Ele conseguia ver os animais de longe e em dois dias vimos mais de 40 felinos (entre leões, leopardos, guepardos...), quando outros não viram quase nenhum.
O jeep era muito bom e realmente foi uma experiência incrível!
Não vejo a hora de poder fazer um outro safari.

African big 5 helped me make my dream safari come true!
5/5

I can not say enough good stuff about African big 5 safaris. I have been a professional wildlife photographer for years. Now in my older years getting around has become tough. My wife and I chose Uganda for our safari for various reasons, knowing full well that it would have some limitations not present in other safari areas of Africa. I had a specific agenda ranging from Kidepo in the northeast, and hitting all the major wildlife areas including doing chimpanzee tracking, Gorilla tracking and finishing with lake Mburo in the south central area. We had somewhat limited time, and a limited budget. African big 5 helped us design what amounted to our own private safari (with a couple exceptions where joining others was not avoidable.) I spoke with Geoffrey, the owner over the course of 1.5 years putting together things the way we wanted. Geoffrey was amazing! Our needs and questions were numerous, and he answered all, as well as accommodating our needs, and and offering suggestions for us where needed. He/they were flexible both prior to the safari and during as well. we upgraded to some 5 star places and downgraded to some lesser places per our interest. Our Driver/guide Musa was great, understandably pushing us a bit when we needed to move our buts, but always with the intention to get us the maximum game viewing times possible. he found us all we wanted to see. I had set my expectations for Uganda differently not expecting to see Cheetah or leopard, and we did not see those, as they are harder to see there. But, we saw many other unusual critters that I had not expected to see. And, as I had previously seen leopard and cheetah in Kenya was delighted to get to see the other animals. We took lots of luggage to ensure our equipment and necessary clothes made it even if all the bags did not. He helped us everywhere with our things and even gave us his backpack on a couple occasions where we needed one and had inadvertently forgotten to bring our own. If Uganda is your destination and you want personalized care - I can not recommend them enough. And, though not all was perfect, any problems were always dealt with expediently and with understanding..... We will miss Uganda, and the personalized care we received.....

Fantastically Well Organised Trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5/5

Hi Tammy,
I hope you are well and enjoying Summer.....its wet, cold and England here!?!?!
I have been out of action since our return, following a small Nose Op. But am back up and running now. (as is the nose!?!?!?!)
So, at long last, I have managed to get to the computer to say a Big Thank You for organising our trip to South Africa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Helen and I enjoyed our adventure enormously despite the late arrival of the SA Summer and various days of petulant weather....hey we are British so used to the odd bit of rain....usually here in Britain though, not Durban and Stellenbosch, where we had some torrential storms!!
Sadly the Cage Diving was a victim of the weather, so I guess I will have to return again to sort that one!! The rest of MY diving was fab and I had an Amazing Encounter with a “lady” at Aliwal Shoal......she was a real Tiger!! (see the video about 2 & 1/2 minutes in:- watch-v=X1rzLd4Sh7M ctr & click). Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We found the information pack and all the details Most useful or rather essential and it really helped. The Guy who met us was most helpful too.
Our accommodation was all absolutely lovely and spot on!
Lalibela was fab and we had many great sightings, probably the most spectacular being a virtually complete Lion hunt and very nearly a successful Kill too....all in one go....I think “Mr Attenborough” would have been jealous!!!!
Once again thanks for your help and we look forward to a return visit maybe sometime sooner than another 25 years!!
Kind regards
Andrew & Helen (Morley)

Nice Safari, bad Kenyan roads (be ready to stuck in dirty several times)
5/5

Safari was good, driver is exeperienced and did his best to show us as much different anymals as possible (actually I cannot say what we didn't see :) ).

The only issue you should consider is bad Kenyan roads. We stuck several times actually. It didn't took long to get out because drivers help each other, but consider this when you have tight airport or other connections. Also we were provided with RWD car, not AWD. On the other hand driver were experienced and handled it good, so we didn't stuck in places where AWD cars had issues.

Great safari and birding trip
5/5

Three day birdwatching and safari with Paul...very bespoke and just the job. First day t the banks of Lake Victoria with amazing views of the Shoebilled stork. Then up towards Murchison Falls Park with great birdwatching en route. Accommodation and food was all of a high standard, Paul and his colleagues were very knowledgeable and the whole trip was pitched well for all the members of the party. Only issues...said breakfast included on the first day which was not the case. Also...we had a potentially serious problem with a burst tyre. This required repair; I wonder if the company need to examine their policy about spare wheels. But overall a fantastic short holiday.
