Review about Uganda by LB
Uganda is a small country with a lot of variety to discover (landscapes, wildlife, vegetation, cultures), while distances are small; most places can be reached within a day. Tourism is only developping, you can find peace, tranquility and adventure. Some nice lodges in different price ranges offer basic or upmarket accommodation. Uganda is a safe country and can be travelled individually. The climate is pleasant, not too hot. People are extremely friendly and welcoming in general.

Uganda, fantastic place to see the gorillas
We had a fantastic time in Uganda. The people were really friendly, the birding was great (although we're not really birders) and we felt safe. The outstanding attraction has to be the gorillas. The hour that we spent with them was totally magical, I once in a lifetime opportunity which tops any other wildlife experience I've had. Aside from the gorillas, you can probably get better sighting animals (especially the large cats) in other countries, mainly because of the scrub and jungle landscape in Uganda. However, the gorillas make up for any lack of lions, leopards etc.

I loved Mount Kenya so much I wrote a book about it
Tour operator, hotel, tour guides excellent. I climbed Mount Kenya thanks to the team around me and I have written about my life enhancing experience in the book, 'Mount Snowdon to Mount Kenya, (and back again)'. Love and best regards always, Jerry Gordon
An incredible first African Safari
South Africa has many things to offer and the variety is just exceptional. In Cape Town the amazing view of the Table Mountain as a backdrop to the Victoria Waterfront during sunset is seen to be believed. The scenery on the Garden Route and the food topped with a winetasting day makes for a memorable holiday. The crowning glory of a South African tour is the private safaris....... and ours was at the Thornybush Game Reserve.
The lodge is simply outstanding with the room overlooking a water hole. The sightings of smaller game coming to the waterhole while having a shower is, I suppose "exclusive"....
Got the big five, including the sight of a leopard jumping from one tree to another as well as a baby elephant rubbing its forehead on the side of the open land rover, right where I was sitting!!!!
The meals were great and the price was extremely reasonable. The tracker was exceptional....
The lodge also organizes walks and that is where the tracker explains the differences between the pug marks of a lion and a leopard.

Review about Namibia by Brian
Namibia has some great open spaces with few signs of humans besides the fences by the roads. The people we encountered were all very friendly and we felt completely safe during our entire visit.

Review about Botswana by Dee Lange
You just get the REAL feeling of being at one with nature, it sends shivers through your body, a truly spiritual place. Its like nowhere else on earth. If you truly want to experience a safari how it should be without queues of cars and tourists then this is it.
