Exciting tour with a lot of variation
I contacted Tepo and Anna originally with a request about a mobile safari. Soon, I let them organize the whole holiday of 2 weeks, from Vic Falls to Maun, mobile safari and lodges included. Always prepared to give good advice, very patient with all my questions, they made our first African trip a huge success at a very fair price. The team of the mobile safari was top. Thank you Salani, MP, Joe and Lo! It couldn't be better. Salani was able to show us wild dogs, leopards, lots of lions, and so many more ... always with a smile :)
Thank you guys! Bart, Ann, Janne and Judit

The experience I had with MJ Safaris was amazing.
The experience I had with MJ Safaris was amazing. Our short safari to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro went flawlessly, from airport collection to drop-off.
Our guide, Valerian, was incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and had exceptional animal identification abilities. Additionally, he was very flexible, accommodating our requests and making sure we got everything we wanted from the trip!

Top Notch Company and Guide, Eddie!
From the planning stages to the first meet and greet, Anthony, Brenda and their team went above and beyond to ensure we had the trip of a lifetime! Friendly Gorilla Safaris gave us everything we asked for while keeping in mind our mid-range budget. They are excellent with communication, professional, patient, and were able to answer all our questions. Our itinerary was amazing with river rafting, game drives, chimp trek and of course the gorilla trek. Accommodations were great, food delicious and Eddie our driver/guide was fantastic! Highly recommend this company.

Eddie is amazing! He’s funny, intelligent and tried diligently to find the animals we requested
I think MoAfrika Tours is good for first safari tourists but not the best for those who’ve been on multiple trips, as I felt many things were inefficient, and some of the safari tours were repetitive.

Discovering Kampala's Hidden Trails.
In August 2024, I visited Uganda on a business trip but decided to get to know it first. I contacted many companies but decided to go with Oasis Safaris because they gave me a flexible schedule.
I visited Kampala the capital to get more knowledge about the country I was about to invest my money. I was taken to places like Uganda Martyrs shrine Namugongo which explained so much that ugandans believed in God, took me to Owino and Nakasero markets which were vibrant markets, Took me to Uganda museum to learn about Uganda's history and lastly to a local restaurant to experience Uganda's food.
For those with limited time, and would like to explore Kampala's hidden gems, oasis Safaris is an excellent choice. Their expert guides will provide a unique perspective on the city's history, culture and daily life.

Fair, well organized, super helpful travel-consultant AGNES!
Agnes was recommended to us by a Kenyan friend. She helped us to organize our safari trip and gave us a fair price right away.
Positiv:
- super fast replying
- super professional attitude
- easy and flexible for special requests
- we paid 800$ for a 4 days and 3 night trip p.P.
Improvable:
- guide could give more information about the wildlife; our guide was more a driver than a guide; maybe improbable English-skills
- more local dishes would be great for diner

Very professional and customer focused.
My wife and I and another couple had Arem Safaris organize a 28 day custom trip to Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. We visited 6 Game Parks (Murchison Falls, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire and Arusha National Park) . Arem Safaris put together the trip we wanted and gave us a great selection of accommodation. They even organized a visit to a Hospital that my friend worked at 50 years ago. Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and personable. They ensured all our needs were met. They could not have done a better job for us. We would definitely work with Arem Safaris on any future trip to the Region.

Fantastic tour and amazing experience
We booked a 2-day gorilla trekking experience with Lulu Safari. Elvis made the booking process easy and efficient. We maintained communication over the months leading up to the safari and he patiently responded to my random questions and eased my concerns more than once ;)
The day of the tour, our guide Smith was prompt to pick us up from the hotel in Kigali. He was friendly, warm and welcoming from the moment he introduced himself. The drive was long but he offered so much information about the culture, stopped for photos and always asked if we needed a break. He was accommodating and entertaining throughout the drive and it was appreciated. He was an advocate for us in immigration and got us through the line and process quickly.
The gorilla trek accommodations and permits were all pre-arranged for us by Lulu Safari and the process was seamless. The gorilla experience itself was absolutely amazing!
Based on my experience, I highly recommend Lulu Safari and suggest asking for Smith as your guide!

A Wonderful and Engaging Experience
My daughter and I undertook a three day safari starting and finishing in Kigali, Rwanda. The trip was administered efficiently through email and WhatsApp. Our driver, Medard added to our enjoyment with his knowledgeable narative and engaging laugh.
A brief tour of Kigali included the Belgian Peacekeepers Memorial and the National Genocide Meemorial. A sobering reminder of mans inhumanity.
Our Gorilla Trek took place in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. Here we were hosted in a community camp and took time to visit the pygmy community and hear about their lifestyle. The gorilla trek was amazing and the National Park staff were professional and knowledgeable. Much to her delight a juvenile gorilla ran up to my daughter and slapped her leg. Magic.
Our final day was spent visiting with Golden Monkeys in Rwanda before being dropped off at our hotel.
I can thoroughly recommend the trip we did. The gorilla experience in Uganda is simple but you feel a part of the gorilla ecosystem. A mistake I made was not having enough cash for tips. These are paid to porters (if you chose to take them), the guides and the cultural groups who perform for you. It is best to have them prepared in advance.
Overall we loved this trip, it will surely be a lifelong memory.
