4 days safari
The safaris were absolutely beautiful, we did them at the Kruger National Park and in a Private Game Reserve. We saw lots of animals very close, Rickus has been an excellent guide explaining everything to us. He really loves his job, and he is also a great cook! Definitely reccomended!

All Around Outstanding and Putting Together a Brilliant13 Day Itinerary to Tanzania & Kenya
Ryan Kendall from Untamed Safaris put together a personalised 13 day itinerary for us showcasing Tanzania and Kenya.
Our trip was a real adventure with many highlights and we experienced something different each day.
There were many pick-ups/drop-offs to negotiate with airports, road transfers, small airstrips and border crossings. Everything worked like clockwork and we were never let down in any area we visited.
Our itinerary showcased the Elewana Collection of accommodation - we visited quite a few of their properties and they were all first class in every respect.
We would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone considering planning a trip to Africa. His knowledge, contacts and advice made our trip planning a breeze and if there were any questions he was very quick to get back to us.

Excellent and Prompt service
Beyond the Plains is a wonderful tour company. My family and I went on an African safari to Kenya, Tanzania, and Zanzibar. The tour company provided us with the best itinerary, excellent accommodation, and a knowledgeable tour guide. Also, their prices are unbeatable. John, the CEO of the tour company, assisted us with everything.

Poor communication, insufficient team spirit
We agreed on a 5-day safari package with Osnet. Our communication was very good beforehand and I had recommended it to many of my friends.
Although the tour started well, problems came one after another during the trip.
On the 2nd day, the Giraffe Center visit did not take place due to lack of communication between Geofrey and the guide. Although dinner was included in the price, I paid for it. The visit to the Masai village also did not take place again due to communication problems. The plan included a Tsavo West and Taita park tour. Our guide suggested to replace East instead of Tsavo West, and I said OK. Again, due to lack of communication between the guide and Geofrey, I had to pay the extra Tsavo East Park fee and fuel cost.
The hotel was not on our plan before the flight on the last day. I asked Geofrey and thanks to him he arranged. He asked 103$ for it and then said he paid himself for cover his excuse, I think.
In summary:
The communication between the team was very poor. Geofrey accusing them, guide and the driver criticizing him, telling he just sitting at the office.
Why I found myself in the middle of unpleasant arguments for no reason? Why did I pay for Park fees, fuel costs and dinner which should be included in the itinerary? Why we didn’t go to Giraffe Center and Masai Village which was also in the itinerary? I spent an hour to explain situations for Tsavo Parks. Why I had to do it on my vacation ?

Professional and caring
I had a great time during my trip and am so grateful to Innocent for the care and effort he put into making my trip an absolute success.
The trip as recommended by Speke was well balanced, adapted to my areas of interest and will leave a lasting impact. The properties that Speke chose were high quality and good value for money, and made for a truly exceptional experience.
Innocent was a great guide: punctual and consummate professional, attentive and caring. I'm a solo female traveler and Innocent was particularly attentive to my safety, even going the extra mile and joining in on excursions when he felt it was necessary to keep a watchful eye on me.
All in, a fantastic trip and I will certainly book again with Speke

Quite better than your expectations!
He gave us an unforgettable bird watching tour! Every member of our 5-person staff says it was the best bird watching experience they have ever had.
The inclusion of a local guide in addition to the existing guide for each area increased the observation quality to the highest level.
Herbert won our hearts with the surprising improvements he made during the tour. We were amazed by how he transformed our hotel in Kibale into a much better hotel without our knowledge. Even though we did not have a hotel before the flight on the last day, he arranged a place for us to stay with dinner.
We enjoyed every moment with zero problems. Highly recommended

Trip of a lifetime -17 day Uganda Safari.
Tubale Safaris exceeded our expectations, from our initial enquiry, the booking process, and accomodating our request to extend the trip by 3 days.
We booked mid range accommodation and was pleasantly surprised as to the quality of the accommodation and the excellent food provided by each lodge.
The game drives were amazing, thank you Jamal our driver/guide who was very patient and readily stopped so we could take photos. We saw leopards, lions, elephants, buffalo, monkeys, antelopes we walked with the rhino at the sanctuary and walked amongst the zebra and giraffes. Jamal was very good at spotting the wildlife, even when they were hidden up a tree.
The trek to see the chimpanzees was an amazing experience.
The highlight was our tour was the trek to see the family of Mountain Gorillas spending one hour with this family of Gorillas was amazing.
We had an unforgettable 17 days and would definitely recommend Tubale Safaris.
We are already planning our return trip.
Thank you Annette and Jamal

Professional and prompt
Sun Safaris were incredibly helpful when organising our first ever safari experience. Natasha provided an excellent trip for us, that was within our budget whilst also providing a very tailored/intimate experience! She was extremely prompt to communicate with and readily replied to our emails. Our transfers between accommodation/the airport were also seamless which was a huge relief! We stayed for 4 nights at Nsala Lodge which was perfect for our group, at times having the whole lodge to ourselves. Thank you Sun Safaris for an amazing trip!

maximun attention to everything!
my assistant Anja was fantastic, in everything. Very quick in contact, already during the planning she gave me advice but also followed my instructions on what I wanted. And she's nice as well as competent. But above all, during the trip he solved various problems for me (not regarding reservations, we didn't have any problems with this!) that I would not have been able to handle alone. This was very important. I will never thank her enough. I would recommend Great Exploration Namibia to everyone.
