Film Crew Fixer Services- Excellent Experience
I engaged Encounter Africa Safaris to help has arrange various services, including media permits, kit bond (for customs clearance), ground transportation and security for a television shoot in the Kampala area.
Right from pre-production, Chris in the office was very helpful in providing information on what permits we would need and the process to obtain these. Communication was very clear and Chris responded to my emails quickly and was always available on the phone.
Once our shoot started, the crew were met at the airport by Paul and Tolbert who cleared the kit through customs and drove the team to the hotel. Throughout the shoot they were very helpful and flexible, which is key as a shooting schedule is always changing!
I massively recommend Encounter Africa Safaris if you need a fixer in Uganda, my experience with them was consistently professional and efficient!

Fantastic 3-days safari
Me and my husband booked our 3-days safari with Jesca Simon from Sunny Safaris. She was extremely helpful with all the questions we had before, during and after the trip. We had a change of flight at the last time and arrived at another time and airport than we first had booked but it was never a problem for Jesca to rearrange our pick up.
We were very lucky to get our guide, Edward!!! He was for sure an expert to find all kinds of animals and he was respectful towards the nature and all animals. He really looked after us and made sure that we got fine rooms at the lodges.
During our safari we had a jeep only for us. We think it was great not to depend on other passengers wishes and we could decide all on our own, how long we stayed at different places, when we had our lunch and so on.
We visited 3 parks, Tarangire, Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara. We think it was perfect for us. We saw all the animals we had expect to see and we had no wishes for more. We were there the last days of December 2014.
If you plan to go on safari we highly recommend to book it with Sunny Safaris.

Great service for a great price
We booked a three-day safari in amazing Masai Mara with Ancient Wild Safaris. Michael, our contact person, took great care of us and did everything to make everything as easy and comfortable as possible for us. We had the freedom to give our own input to the program, he was flexible with regards to the payments we had to make, and informed us very well during a visit to our hotel the day before the safari. Also, the guide did a good job and was able to find 4 of big 5. The accommodation was okay-ish. We did not get the promised hot showers and the hygiene was not that great, but I did not expect that much for the very low price.

We had a very pleasant time. Safari was excellent!
We spent 4 days with jipetrekkingandsafaris and visited many interesting places at Northern Tanzania. We were at Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro National Parks. As a additional option we visited Maasai village where we got very good experience and knew a lot of information about Maasai culture.
Safari was arranged very professionally and as a result we saw many different animals like elephants, lions, zebras and so. My group consisted 3 adults and 3 children 12,13 and 15 years old.
Everyone was very glade to collaborate with jipetrekkingandsafaris.

Great time in Arusha region with Quest Horizon
My family and I had a very good time in the Arusha region with Quest Horizon. Their team was reliable, resourceful and flexible so that we could enjoy every moment of our stay. We particularly appreciated that the guides were knowledgable both during the 1 day cultural tour and the 3 days safari in Arusha National Park and Ngorongoro. I warmly recommend this operator.

Gondwana Tours & Safaris is the best travel agency we have worked with. Cannot go wrong with them
We had no idea where or when in Africa we wanted to go for our first safari. Thanks to Gondwana Tours & Safaris they made it so much easier for us to decide. They helped us so much in making decisions on which camps to go to and what other areas that would be also good to visit while we were there. We went to two camps, Victoria Falls and Cape Town. Little Vumbra was our first camp. The Guide and game viewing was excellent. The camp staff made you feel at home and the food was also excellent. Selinda was our second camp. The guide and game viewing were very good, especially if you love elephants. The staff was very accommodating and the food was the best we had anywhere. Both camps were clean, spacious rooms and in beautiful settings. This was one of our dream vacations and Gondwana Tours and Safaris made it come true. We could never thank them enough. We would highly recommend them to everyone.

It was a great 2 days safari experience!
My guide Tony was very nice and friendly. He knows his way arround Mikumi park, I had the chance to see lots of animals, LIONS in particular !!!
I travelled alone and felt completly safe. However the price was a bit expensive for a single person.
Accommodation and food were excellent!
Thanks for this amazing experience :-)!
