About: Uganda
A very successful 16 days wildlife super safari for one person
Overall rating
4/5

The result of wildlife rating should be very much better if I would have taken part on gorilla or chimpanzee tracking. Without the mentioned
animals you can'' t compare the wildlife with countries as in Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia or South Africa. But also with a smaller animal kingdom you can have wonderful experiences. So I had the possibility to watch in Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary my smallest rhino
I have ever seen before in Africa, in one of the lakes or channels my smallest hippo, without the mother you could carry the cup away with
both hands, a fish eagle with a too tall fish just in front of our car, not more than three metres away, twice the fish fell down in front of our car
when the eagle started to safe the fish and in Rwakobo camp I had the luck to watch a two months old waterbuck, found from the manager of
the camp in a age of 1,5 weeks without a mother. Two times a day the little buck came to the manager of the camp and was asking for bottles
of milk. Because you could touch the cup and give to the animal some milk, it was one of the main attractions.
The safari was organized with one of the best, perhaps even the best travel agency in Uganda. For nearly a year, the manager Jackie was
planning with me together my tour of Uganda. Jackie was a amazing and patient, with unusual prompt replies to my emails and with her help
I booked the best safari to suit my needs. With one of the best cars, a 4x4 wheel driven Toyota Landcruiser, we - the driver and safari guide
Martin - started our safari, when he picked me up at the airport around midnight. For road conditions, which I haven' t seen before during
nearly fifty years in Africa the car and the driver was the best what could had happened to me. Very often without any signs Martin found
without any difficulties his way and brought us without any breakdowns back to Kampala and Entebbe. Under no circumstances I felt unwell
or there was a fear of not enough security. Wether for lunch or dinner I had to eat meat, with his help I could always pick up a piece of fried
fish with chips.
The accommodations, with Jackie I had agreed with "moderate", were always very clean and comfortable, but only the accommodations in
Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and Rwakobo camp where a little bit more simple and older.
The mountains and lakes of the southwestern part of Uganda are postcard perfect. Katona Tours and Travel is a very experienced Tour Opera-
tortor and travel expert for East Africa. I would definitely use Katona Tours again.

Our guide Lenadi during safari was always in contact with other guides to spot as much animal as possible. Food, accomodation & etc. was all good.

Great safari
4/5

We were 2 full days at masai mara which was AMAZING!
Great lodge, Great food. OT upgraded us for 1 more night at the lodge.
The next day we spent at lake Naivasha which was a failure.
We are sorry for not be more accurate when we booked the safari regarding the schedule of that day.
It was a boring day and a waste of time.
The price OT gave us was the most attractive offer after checking with many operators.
OT is the reason we will close our next safari with KWS..
He is very nice and kind man and he gives you the feeling you are in a good hands.

Watching the wildlife close but safety
Overall rating
4/5

National parks are amazing and something that should visit at least once in your life. You can see very close a lot of animals, bigs and smalls too. The weather was really good for travelling, some hot but not too much, and at night you can sleep without problems as temperature is nice.

Food is not varied and maybe is the weak point of this trip.

Great experience with Time 4 Africa!
4/5

We found this Safari Agency through the suggestion of the Manager of our hotel in Dar Es Salaam, as we were interested in organizing a last-minute three-days safari in the Mikumi Park. In less than one hour, our private safari was settled! What a great experience! Our guide was really nice and helpful, the accommodation was comfortable and really close to the park and the safari was perfect! Even though we had a flat tire the guide immediately solved the problem with no time loss for our trip. Beautiful safari with a great company!

We travelled with Afroriginal who perfectly helped us to plan the trip, where to go, where to stay.
4/5

The safari exceeded our expectations. It's hard to beat the wildlife, biodiversity, and expansive landscapes of Tanzania. Especially the wildlife in the Serenghetti and Ngorongoro was tremendous.
Our tour guide was perfect with good information and the cook was marvelous too.
And of course Zanzibar is a mandatory destination with her stunning sun sets and nice Stone Town.

An Amazing, Unforgettable Experience
4/5

I was very happy with the overall planning process. I wanted to combine three excursions in one trip - a camping safari, Mt Kilimanjaro climb and Zanzibar beach time. East Africa Wild Adventures was great to provide me with several options varying in experience and price range involving the three excursions to ensure I could appropriately assess the best experience for me. The staff went so far as to inquire and find me a volunteer position for a week as I wanted to include that as part of my trip as well. Every request I had was accommodated with enthusiasm.

The logistics of the trip were very smooth. Most importantly, I felt safe and cared for every step of the way. As a solo female traveller, this was of utmost importance. I had a dedicated team for every excursion who was very helpful and attentive.

The safari was one of the best experiences of my life. My guide was very good at spotting wildlife and driving our car! You could tell he had lots of experience and loved what he did. He made sure I was comfortable and I had complete discretion as to how much time I wanted to spend in any one place.

I really appreciated my tailored experience in Tanzania and would gladly work with East Africa Wild Adventures for my future travels in Africa.

Best experience seeing wildlife in a wonderful landscape
4/5

We enjoyed a lot our experience in Kenya. We saw lots of animals and learnt a lot about them. We were guided toward excellent landscapes and drived secure in the middle of difficult paths. Both, tour guide and driver are excellent profesionals. Both were kind and amazing. We enjoyed their way of travelling, out of the typical tourist routes but without losing the most important scenaries and qualities of the people in the country.

Very nice trip!
4/5

We had a lot of expectations about the trip (and all were fulfilled pretty nice) and about the accommodation but there were some troubles in two lodges, but Matoke Tours fixed them well.
We have a very good and professional guide and driver!

Though we are not travelers, we contacted seven by far travel to inquiry itinerary and quotation in Kenya for our clients who wanted to do a combined tour of Ethiopia and Kenya. We; being a tour operator in Ethiopia was impressed by their quickest reply especially since the request was sent on Saturday. We received their response after a few hours. If you are looking to finalize your travel plan fast, then seven far is an ideal travel organizer.And regarding their price you should negotiate further.
