Kathi was amazing!
Kathi was incredibly patient despite all the changes we had her make. She was helpful and replied as soon as she could. While the trip was unlike anything we had done before, we felt more options could be given regarding the type of car we were paying for. Well, we got a Mercedes and should not complain. Yet I can't help but wished we were given options (regular sedan vs luxury) beforehand and its corresponding costs. My tour guide was friendly and we had fun exploring Cape Town with him. Cape Town is beautiful and our safari was great.

Great Family Safari
We had a lovely experience with Mwema Africa Safaris. They provided an excellent price for the dates and style safari we were looking for. They were accommodating, listening closely that we had family members ranging in ages from 78 to 3 years, and made sure each member had a great experience. We visited Serengeti )2 nights central), Ngorongoro Crater (2 nights), and Lake Manyara. They met us in Arusha and transferred us to a hotel outside the city, but before doing so they agreed to stop and let us check out a bit of shopping.

Fabulous views on Kidepo National Park
From the moment our driver (David) picked us up in Kampala it felt good. He explained a lot, about the country, the places we passed by, the people and the park we were going to visit. We could ask anything and about every subject he could tell something. When we entered the park it was really amazing. What a beautiful place to go to. The wide nature surrounded with mountains was magnificent. We saw animals in their natural habitat and visited the hot springs, close to the border with South Sudan. The ranger that joined us also explained a lot about the park. The second day we visited a Karamodja village. Without feeling a tourist, they led us through the village and explained things about the way of living of the people in Kidepo. We danced with them, played with the kids and again had some amazing views. On the way back to Kampala we bought different kinds of fruit to enjoy at home. After dropping us of safely in Kampala we really agreed that it was a perfect trip.

Reliable, friendly and client-centered service
My family and I had a wonderful experiemce visiting the Masai Mara for 2 days tour, organized by Kennedy Sagwe of Doyen Safaris. Kennedy was very helpful right from the first start when I made an inquiry all the way from Solomon Islands. He kept advising both by email, phone calls and WhatsApp to ensure I received the required info on time to inform my decision. Kennedy organized comfortable accommodations and great meals as part of the package, and I must say my wife and kids had a great time.
I intend to visit Kenya again in Dec 2017 or Jan 2018, and I shall confidently rely on Kennedy's advice to plan the activities of this second trip with my family.
Kennedy was entirely trustworthy with money and we got exactly what we paid for. He was humble and respectful to us during our entire engagement with him.

Highly responsive, competitive pricing
I went with Cross Country for a May 2017 trip to Zambia primarily because they were consistently over time the most responsive to my inquiries and their price was competitive. I wish they had stronger knowledge of camps at Kafue NP in Zambia to tell me that animal viewing in May would be better at a riverside camp than at Kanga Camp which is deep in the bush. But the 2 camps they chose at South Lwange (Flatdogs and Chichele Lodge) were excellent. They were understanding when I wired $200 less than I was supposed to as an oversight and agreed with my suggestion of providing that cash on arrival, which was flexibility I appreciated. I mainly just appreciated knowing that if I sent an email, I'd hear back quickly, even if an interim response.

Good Price Quality Ratio
For my second visit to Uganda, I was wondering if I should self drive or use the services of an agency.
Tourland Uganda made me a very attractive offer (much lower than the competition) and showed great flexibility upon creating the itinerary.
All in all a good experience with a reliable agency, and a very good and very motivated driver / guide, Emma.
The special moments are definitely Gorilla Tracking and Chimpanzees Habituation (far superior to Chimpanzees Tracking)
Queen Elisabeth NP was a huger disappointment but for the Kazinga Channel
Murchison Falls offers good wild life viewing all in all
Beware that Uganda is a very expensive destination.

A nice experience!
Nice experience, very professional.
PS: do not underestimate the wild aspect of the 'jungle': I wore simple sneakers, but on moment I stood in an ants nest and then I regretted not TTY have worn something more appropriate! ;-)
