Breathtaking
We spend 4 nights at the Simbavati River Lodge in a very luxurious tent. The team was absolutely friendly and helpful and we enjoyed every minute. Going out into the bush twice a day was the best. We learned so much from Martin and Stiff and saw next to the Big 5 so much more!
Thank you!!

Review about Phinda Game Reserve by hrosenlund
My time here was amazing. I did not stay at any of the lodges, so I cannot speak of the quality of the accomodation, altough I've heard it is excellent. The wildlife here is fantastic, and I saw a lot without looking too hard, both in terms of large mammals and in terms of birds. The scenery is awesome and classic Africa!
There's no better outfit than Kilimanjaro Brothers
If you're considering a Kilimanjaro climbing adventure, I recently completed a 7-day Machame climb with two friends, and we couldn't have asked for a better outfit than Kili Brothers to help provide us with an experience that we'll remember positively for the rest of our lives. Whether it was George Mtaki's pre-trip communication and advice, the airport pick-up, our hotel stay, or the actual climb to the summit and subsequent descent, George and his staff helped everything go smoothly. Our guide, assistant guide, cook, and all the porters who were part of our adventure were not only top notch professionals but were incredibly caring and generous people. We did find certain aspects of the climb quite challenging, but every staff member was always willing to help in their own way, by being patient and allowing us to rest, temporarily lightening the load of our daypacks, helping us to stay hydrated, providing food or drink to help settle our stomachs, and in countless other ways to help us realize our dream. We were happy to provide the crew members with generous but well-deserved tips and to part with sleeping bags, hiking shoes and several other items that we knew they'd put to good use, but we still felt we received so much more than we gave. Since getting back to the US, I've thought a lot about the climb and the special relationship we developed with George and his team. I truly believe that Kili Brothers is the best and will do everything possible to help provide a positive climbing experience and make your trip a success.
Unique
Traveled around the world but this was
my first time in Africa. Was amazed about the beauty of nature and accessable wild life.

Review about uMkhuze Game Reserve by hrosenlund
I've only spent one day at uMkhuze, and didn't see much in terms of the big stuff. It is nice park, however, birding is very good, and the new facilites there, such as the new hides, are excellent!

Memorable moments
3 magical days between Serengeti and Ngorgoro Park, everything was perfect, we will come back. There were 2 of us in the 4x4 and our guide took the time to show us these majestic places. Safina contacted us every day during the safari to find out if everything was going well. Thanks you very much for these memorable moments.

Review about Kruger National Park by hrosenlund
I didn't spend too long at Kruger, and dind't see a lot either. I am not a big fan of all the traffic, but you will see a lot of animals. Very good place for birding.

Prompt efficient service with great attention to detail
Tkanks to Patrick , Elaine and the African Encounter Team I was able to experience the wonderful sights
of Victoria Falls and view the animals of Chobe Valley before undertaking an amazing 15 day safari of Kenya and Tanzania - viewing so many animals and birds in their natural habitat.
Due to African Encounter's eceleent organization of my trip -including flights , accomadation , transfers etc
this allowed me as a solo traveller to enjoy a completely trouble free time in Africa . I would definitely
recommend African Encounter to any wishing to enjoy travel in Africa.

An anforgettable experience
We had the pleasure of taking a 10-day trip to Uganda where we were able to enjoy visits to the national parks and see a multitude of animals, including the "big five" and to top it off the Gorillas.
It has been a fabulous experience, enjoying the wild nature, the agriculture with extensive fields of tea and other products and above all the friendliness of the people that makes Uganda a fabulous destination.
We have made several trips to Africa, and I can assure you that this has been the best by far.
For all that, if anyone is thinking of taking a trip to Africa, UGANDA is without a doubt the country to choose.
