Better Experience Than I Could Have Ever Asked For!!
Let me first begin by saying that Amos saved our trip! To make a long story short, we had originally booked our 6-day Machame trek and 3-day safari through another company, which we discovered had gone out of business one week prior to our departure. After calling various numbers trying to get ahold of someone with our prior company, we came across Amos who was the first one to answer. He went above and beyond for us, even trying to contact the company himself (and going by their local office), ultimately to confirm to us that they were in fact no longer in operation. Given that we had lost our initial deposit and were one week out from the trip, Amos offered to match the prices given to us for the exact climb and safari and even allowed us to pay upon arrival rather than pay in advance (although we ended up paying in advance so we did not have to travel with the money and had no issues). Amos also personally picked us up from the airport to help ensure to us that they were a company that we could trust.
We had the most amazing trek and made it to the top of the mountain all due to our incredible guides, Siza and Niko, amazing porters, and cooks. The trek and safari were extremely well organized, especially for the last minute nature of our booking with Migration Venture Africa. Our safari driver was very knowledgable and our hotel in Moshi and lodge during the safari were very nice as well. After both the climb and safari, Amos stopped by our hotel in Moshi to check in with us and see how our trip was going - by far the best customer service I have ever received anywhere. We had an amazing trip with no complaints at all and never once felt unsafe with any individual who helped us or at any of the places we visited or stayed. I could not imagine booking the trip with another company and am so thankful that we stumbled across Amos' number and found this company. We wouldn't recommend booking a trip to Tanzania with anyone else!

Amazing!
I want to first speak on how accommodating George from Northland Africa Adventures was. I knew a trip to Tanzania would be expensive coming from New York so I had to kind of put safari out of my mind as not being able to afford it.
I spoke to George and he let me know that I would be able to join someone else’s group as I was a solo traveler. This helped tremendously and made me experience a once in a lifetime experience without “safari money”
The safari itself was truly breathtaking and I would definitely recommend booking through Northland! They won’t disappoint!

Fun Uganda Experience with Ronald!
We had a great time in Uganda with Ronald. He is easy to talk with and is overall a likeable guy. I felt like he genuinely wanted to make sure we had a good time and saw all of the animals/sights possible. I found the van comfortable with plenty of space. I especially appreciated the pop-up roof while driving around Queen Elizabeth National Park.
Our trip was “Budget” and we found the accommodations nice. We really liked the camping at Kibale and Queen Elizabeth. Overall the food was good, especially at the camping resorts.
We saw chimps, elephants, warthogs, hippos, lions, kobs, buffalo, gorillas, and more. The countryside is beautiful and Lake Bunyoni is amazing. We personally didn’t care much for the bigger cities, but our itinerary didn’t have us spending much time there so that was perfect.
Ronald went out of his way to help us with various things, like finding the best place to exchange money. We would recommend him to our friends and family who are looking for a personal and authentic Uganda experience!
Amazing Safari at Affordable price
Everything from start to finish was excellent with this company. Lizzy in the office helped with booking procedure and answered all queries promptly and with professional knowledge. Lizzy went over and above, helping me with some personal issues, resulting in this safari being a much better experience than it could have been. Overall, great communication. The itinerary works well, I did the 4 day, 3 night tour to Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. You get plenty enough time in each place. Our driver Emanuel did his utmost for us to have the best viewing experience of the animals. He was friendly and professional and knowledgeable. The accommodation each night is fine, the first night we had large tents with beds in which was a nice surprise to us all, and our tents the next two nights were fine too. Good facilities at the campsites, and lovely scenery at the Ngorongoro Crater site. My personal favourite area was the Ngorongoro because aside from seeing plenty of animals, the scenery down in the Crater was stunning! We had plenty of photo opportunties of the animals. I would highly recommend Drones Safaris for an overall amazing Safari experience

What u ask for is what you get, sometimes more. They will advise you on the choice of destination if not sure, they will do proper research for you and give you options to choose from ..
Everything goes as planned,their attention to detail is exceptional.
I can’t wait for my next travel..

Lovely proffeisional services with Africa Adventure vacations
Just to say thank you very much for organizing all the trips I had, I had a great time! I have to say that the service I got from you was always very professional and to western standards, which gave me a lot of confidence. The fact that you sent an invoice and the other documents with practical information and more was excellent in particular. As I mentioned on the first day over the phone, Sam is such a lovely guy. He also displayed very high standards of service and he was great company too. His driving is excellent and he really knows how to look after people.
