Great experiences und impressions of Uganda with the highlight visiting the gorillas.
First of all we would like to thank our guide Moses for the friendly assistance during our week in Uganda.
It was a pleasure meeting you. Nevertheless don't forget to be always in time :-).
The accomodations are all absolutely perfect for that that trip. The wunderful nature especially in QE Bush Lodge and
Arcadia Lodge Bunyonyi will be always in our mind. Also the support of all staff in the hotels were very impressive.
The safari tour itself (Ishasha and QE Nationalpark) was nice but not comparable with Tansania where we spent a holiday four years due to the amount of different animals.
Nevertheless we will keep the green Uganda always in our mind due to many great experiences, also outside the "normal" tour.
The most amazing experience was Bwindi Nationalpark with the gorilla family and also chimapnzee trekking in Kibale Forest National Park.
Thanks for giving us the chance to collect so many great impressions.

Good Company
I am a photographer, and Davis and our guide, Alex, made certain we saw every animal possible. I have some health issues, and both were so kind and patient with my limitations. The sheer volume of birds and other wildlife to photograph was beyond my wildest expectations. I highly recommend!

Adventure Safaris and especially our guide Robert created a terrific experience in Uganda for us
Our guide Robert was really the highlight of our tour through Uganda. He took perfectly care of us, always friendly and with great patience. All our accomodations were inspected by him first and if something was not perfect he took care immediately. On the afternoon Safaris he always found the perfect place for our Sundowner. We recommended Robert to friends of us visiting Uganda in November.
What was not so good: our permit for the Gorillas requested a 2 hour drive from our lodge early in the morning, means we had to leave at 6h and wihtout breakfast. Nobody told us before - in this case we would have choosen another lodge or choosen another timing for our travel. But again Robert made the best out of it - he made tee for us an organized breakfast boxes.

BOTSWANA - SURPRISE
I am an experienced traveler, travelled all continents, only in Africa I did 11 countries mainly alone. Travelled difficult and sometimes really dangerous paths, I have never met such bad service as I encountered this August during "6 Days of Moremi Game Reserve" in Botswana. The service was provided by Waterlime Mobile Safaris.
And this is what Waterlime Mobile Safaris can provide:
1. Guides (Frank and Katee) who lie about travel conditions, change the route without your approval, refuse fresh water, shout at and ignore requests and protests of their customers.
2. Guides who are very reluctant to give their telephones to call their agency, and when communicating with their boss speak only their language so that others couldn’t figure out what they talk about.
3. Guide/ driver (Frank) who instead of driving along the paths for vehicles in National Parks, drives across the bush chasing animals, incl. a female elephant with a baby.
4. Guide/driver (Frank) who probably knows nothing about nature and tracing animals and cannot give any information about the area and traces basic animals with big difficulty.
5. Guide/driver (Frank) who is very willing to sleep with you in your tent and offers his service also at night.
Now it all looks a little funny but it was not on the spot.
It was a surprise, and not a pleasant one. I have never expected such a treatment in Africa.

Fantastic safari lead by a very knowledgeable guide!
Transtreck provided a great experience for my husband and I on our honeymoon. We saw about every animal imaginable and our guide, Tony, was extremely knowledgeable about the terrain and animals alike. We stayed in some amazing camps , our favorite being the Mara Bush Camp, met wonderfully interesting people and felt at home in the Jeep after a week or so. A highlight of the trip was seeing a cheetah stalk and run down a gazelle. Tony placed us in the perfect position to see the entire event from start to finish. Simply amazing!

An exceptional game drive
I had booked our safari through Luitours and Safaris because of the many options they offered. We spent two nights in Selous Game Reserve and one night in Mikumi National Park. The staff at both places couldn't have been more accommodating - excellent!

Great safari trip, good guides and very enjoyable
Haron was very communicative via email for the booking and organising of the tour. We visited 4 parks across Kenya and Tanzania, both Paul in Kenya and Peter in Tanzania were great guides, friendly, professional and very knowledgeable - saw lots of wildlife including lions, leopards and cheetahs, and learnt a lot in the process. Had a really great time.
Slight hiccups:
1) a misunderstanding by one of the lodges, but I would like to underline that Haron sorted it out IMMEDIATELY and it was NOT the fault of African Sunset Safaris, the lodge had made a mistake (I mention this despite it having zero negative effect on our trip as it shows how responsive and quick to fix things the team at African Sunset Safaris are);
2) slight disappointment the early morning game drive on the last day in the itinery turned out to be a mistake, but we had seen so much by then that actually not getting up at the crack of dawn on the last day wasn't a big issue!
All the lodges/tented camps (mix of mid-range and a couple of luxury) were amazing, beautiful rooms, attentive staff and delicious food.
Would definitely recommend African Sunset Safaris (and already have done to a friend).
I am going to copy this review to FB and tripadvisor, as some travellers use those forums to double check reputability etc, and I would't want others to be put off by a lack of reviews on either of those - great company, great people, great trip.
Thank you very much for everything!

We had a fabulous honeymoon and couldn’t be happier we booked with Mmilo tours.
All that had been booked and arranged many months before hand all went to plan with no problems. The tour met my expectations! Food was lovely at our lodge and the Safari experience was amazing. We saw the big 5 on both tours which was incredible.
