Incredible, awesome, spectacular and magic
The experience of going on safari was incredible. To see the wild life in their own environment was magic.
The countryside was fantastic the vastness is not seen in photos but in real life just amazing.
The Masihambe Afrika company is a very professional business and was wonderful with all the communication and contact before and after the trip. The guide, Anthony Washford with his wealth of knowledge and genuine compassion for both the wild life and the country was outstanding. All in all the absolute best company to deal with. Recommend them to anyone wishing to see what they have on offer.

Once in a Lifetime Experiences - Expectations Exceeded!
My husband and I just returned from a 2.5 week African vacation which began in South Africa and took us to Tanzania and finally to Rwanda where we had the pleasure of experiencing Pinnacle Africa Safaris. We scheduled the Rwanda portion of the trip for the end as we were most looking forward to our Mountain Gorilla trek and wanted to "save the best for last". We had no idea how right we were!
Our wonderful guide, Adrian Ddungu, was the perfect fit for us personally and took the wheel (literally and figuratively) from the start to create two fantastic days which were book-ended by our arrival and departure processes. Not only was he waiting for us with a huge smile at 1:30 am when our much delayed flight landed in Kigali, he made sure we were completely comfortable before saying goodnight at the Kigali Serena Hotel and making timing arrangements for the following morning.
The next morning he met us and gave us a full briefing on what we would be doing in the coming days and also took the time to show us the various stops on a Rwanda map. Very helpful. From there we started our Rwandan adventure.
After a very emotional and interesting visit to the Genocide Museum, Adrian took us on the 3 hour trip to Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge (gorgeous!!!) to get us settled again. The drive was filled with great information; cultural and historical details as well as a lot of laughs and stories. We were immediately at home with him and truly enjoyed the time together.
The Silverback Lodge was a wonderful place to call "home" for three nights and when my husband tweaked his back one afternoon they took special care to bring several meals to our cottage; co-ordinate an in-room massage and put a wonderful fire in the fire place. The only thing I might mention as a heads up to future Silverback Lodge customers would be to prepare for what we called "mini-Mt. Kilamanjaro"...the walk from the jeep drop off to the main lobby is straight up hill and just when you think it's over - it's not. Combined with the altitude - this was definitely a big surprise. Thank goodness for the very strong porters!
Again, thanks to Adrian, we had two spots on the perfect level of trekking when we set off to find the Pablo Family of Mountain Gorillas. We had requested "low to moderate" and that's exactly what we got. The entire experience was magical and when we heard stories from others at the lodge - we know ours was even more special.
So Pinnacle....I could go on and on but I will stop here by saying thank you! We own an incentive travel company in Toronto, Ontario (Canada) and are definitely looking for the right group to share this experience with. When we find them - we will return to you!

Life changing experience
Some close friends, my wife and I were seeking an adventure this year. There were tons of choices available when we decided to go with safari and climbing kiliminjaro. After much research we settled on Benson Safari and couldn't be happier. Our safari guide, as well as the owner Benson, were incredibly good and accommodating. Peter, our safari guide, was extremely kind, knowledgeable and professional. We can't say enough good things about him. Tomorrow we are going to attempt kiliminajro and we are super confident thanks to Benson and our head guide :)

Good timely and enjoyable trip
The guide in the safari tour to Masai Mara was knowledgeable about the place. Stay in Masai Mara camp could be improved as there was no electricity throughout the night. Reached back Nairobi safely and on time. Nice journey.

Dreams come true: wonderful experience in Huganda
I started planning a safari to Huganda in February. We planned it between the end of August and the beginning of September 2016. Charles, the president of 1000 shades of green, was very patient to answer every request we made and he was able to customize our perfect 10 nights safari. Moreover he informed us also about visas, vaccinations,... The itinerary was really good and included 2 nights in Murchinson Falls (game drives and boat cruise),2 nights in Kibale national park (to track chimps), 2 nights in Queen Elisabeth National Park (game drives and boat cruise), 2 nights in Bwindi National Park (to track Gorilla), 1 night in lake Mburo National park and the last one in Kampala. All the lodges were perfect, the itinerary planned respected all our expectations. Most of all what really made the holiday a perfect one was the best and more skilled guide we had ever had: Milton! I highly recommend this company!

Good but not exceptional experience.
The communications were good, the service also. All the people in the camp were very kind. However, I could not help being a little bit disappointed by the safari tours, due to a relative scarcity of animals, especially the lack of lions.

Best value, excellent guide, great service
My wife and I had a phenomenal experience with Easy Travel. They gave us the best quote of 4 tour operators. Their trip exceeded our very high expectations. Joseph, our guide, was incredibly patient, knowledgable, friendly, and extremely knowledgable about all of the animals and vegetation. He could even tell us all of the birds that we saw. The tented camps we stayed in were wonderful. I cannot imagine them being any better. The animals and wilderness were truly magnificent. Everyone should go on a safari and I highly highly recommend Easy Travel.
