The best Safari..
5/5

We would hereby give Gecko Safari, Rama Mo and Said Nganga our beset recommendations. We travelled to Tanzania in July 2014. Before our departure we contacted Gecko Safaris the email correspondence was very easy and Rama Mo very fast understood our wishes and put together a perfect program for our safari. We went to Udzungwa Mountains and Seleous nature reserve. Every question we had regarding the trip was swiftly answered by Rama Mo. The price for the safari was very reasonable compared to other tour operators. When we arrived in Dar es Salam everything was exactly as planned, we had Said Nganga as our guide and driver for the 6 days. He was an excellent guide with an enormous knowledge about his country; plants, animals, history geographic and politics. He was friendly, professional, funny and very good company during the trip. Furthermore he is the best driver; Fast, but all the time safe driving on dirt roads, with crazy African traffic. On the safari we saw any animal you could expect, even several lions, all due to Said´s knowledge and skills. Accommodation and food on the trip was all very nice. All in all a perfect planned and fantastic trip thanks to Rama and Said.
Best regards Lotte, Tyge, Oskar and Stine

Kenya is a beautiful and fascinating travel destination. Amboseli has plenty of wildlife worth your visit, despite it being a bit crowded with tourists. Tour was good overall, despite there being some unnecessary delays in the beginning. Driving and guide were excellent. Do visit if you can!

Amazing!

4/5

We went to Kenya specifically for safari on the Masai Mara. I wouldn't recommend anyone spend time in Nairobi except to see the Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Sanctuary. The selection of wildlife on the Mara wasout of this world, we had a fantastic driver who knew exactly where to go and we saw the big 5 all within the first 2 days. Good choice of accommodation also, we went mid-range and felt like it was luxury!

Professional, nice accommodations, perfect logistics, enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide
5/5

Makasa offers tailor made safaris. Based on your preferences and budget they compose the safari holiday of your desire. The accommodations were nice and all the transport in Tanzania was well arranged. Our guide really contributed to the success and joy of our holiday. He was enthusiastic, friendly, extremely knowledgeable about the animals and nature, and - last but not least - he was a very safe driver. Since a safari is pretty intense, we were happy to relax a couple of days at Zanzibar. In sum: a great experience! We certainly want to recommend Makasa.

About: Uganda
Unforgettable experience with the best safari guide in Uganda.
Overall rating
5/5

My husband and I just had an amazing 12 day safari in Uganda, thanks to Wild Jungle Trails. The lovely Teresa had helped us so much in advance with finding the right tour for us and helping us prepare for this amazing safari. She is so nice and professional, and we felt very comfortable through the whole booking process.

Once we came to Kampala we were very lucky to have Twaha as our guide. Twaha is the coolest and nicest guy and he is an amazing driver (people would bet that we couldn't get through certain tough spots during our safari, but Twaha just surprised everyone with his driving skills).

And furthermore he has extensive knowledge about wildlife and was a great guide. On our safari we were very lucky to see many birds and animals, among them were antelopes, buffalos, elephants, hippos, monkeys and even tree climbing lions in Ishasha plains. It was an amazing experience! The big highlight of our safari was of course the Bwindi forest Mountain Gorilla trekking. That part of our safari can't even be described in words, but it will forever be an unforgettable experience. Wild jungle Trails Safaris had also picked only great lodges for us with amazing views and great food.

I would like to particularly mention the Silverback lodge in Bwindi was our favorite. The view from our room was just breathtaking. All in all we would definately recommend Wild Jungle Trails Safaris to anyone who is going to Uganda. And also we would like to add that Uganda is a wonderful country with amazing safari experiences, great food, very friendly people and breathtaking nature and wildlife. Would love to go back some day in the future. Thanks again Wild Jungle Trails Safaris for a wonderful and unforgettable experience!

Best regards, Luks and Mark.

Comprehensive professionalism
5/5

Extremely prompt and reliable communications given that we booked from overseas with a 6 hour time differential.
Excellent advice and itinerary planning tailored to our preferences and requirements.
One of the most enjoyable holidays we have taken, with all worries taken care of by African Welcome Safaris. We will be back.

Amazing Safari with the „big five“ — 100% recommendation
Overall rating
5/5

The mixture of our group (which was organized by the company) was really good and we had quite a lot of fun during the five days in one car ;-)
Our driver & guide was very experienced in spotting wild animals while driving. We were really surprised because we didn’t expect to spot that many animals. He was always up to giving us an unforgettable safari, we are very thankful for him.

Thank you so much for the organization, we made „the big five“ :-)

About: Namibia
Unique desert and coastal scenery.
Overall rating
4/5

The desert scenery throughout Namibia was quite spectacular, although at times it looked just like we were in the Australian outback. The weather was quite pleasant, with the exception of sesriem where it got to 48 degrees Celsius during the day but otherwise we barely saw any clouds the whole 10 days we spent there. The standard of accommodation and food exceeded our expectations in most cases, especially at the luxury desert inn at Sesriem. Having the ability to drive ourselves at our own pace was good as we were able to stop at various interesting sites along the way.

Kilimanjaro and Safari
5/5

The Safari and Kilimanjaro hike was even better than I expected. Ibrah was extremely accomadating and made sure that everything went to plan. On our Kilimanjaro Hike, the Guides were extremely experienced each having summited more than 60 times, and it showed. They knew exactly what they were doing and all of our group got to the top. The safari was Great as well, Fred, our driver was amazing. He knew exactly where to find the Animals and we saw nearly everything we wanted to see, Cheetahs, Lions, Monkeys, Hippos, etc. We were very happy with our experience.

5/5

I have been to Kenya for 6 days in Dec 2017, and safari for 3 days. I could see most of the animals and some scene of predation as well. There are lots of tourism and they are going for similar trip, but you can enjoy the wildlife very easily.
