Big Five stars for Big Five Voyage
My girlfriend and I did a 6 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara.
We were treated to a really personal service by Amon and Oscar prior to our trip and upon arrival were taken for lunch, looked after around Arusha and made to feel very welcome. Had a fantastic time on the safari with a dedicated driver who was able to find us countless big cats (alas we only saw 4 of the big 5 - in spite of our driver's concerted efforts the Rhino were in hiding!) and we had great food and service for the 6 days we we spent with them. Highlights included the Serengeti, the Panorama campsight and the village tour of Mto Wa Mbu, and Johnson our driver has to be commended for his care in helping to look after my car-sick girlfriend!
The Panorama campsite aside, the campsites were basic, but then again, we got what we paid for and we were right in the heart of the action (Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater campsites) - walking past Zebras on the way to the washrooms in the night stays in the memory!
The only small fly in the ointment was an uncomfortable visit to a Maasai village where we were made to feel like walking dollar bills. Although this was at our request I would suggest this is best avoided.
Amon's preferred style of communication was via whatsapp which was somewhat unusual at first but we found him to be highly trustworthy, helpful and personable - and we left the country feeling like we had made a new friend. I'm still in touch with him and would gladly go with him again if I come back (which I plan to, someday).
All in all, a small, but friendly, professional, trustworthy operation who provide great value for money - thanks guys!

They really care!
Michael, the manager was really caring about everyones personal well-being. He gave really valuable information, advice and helpful.
He couldn't have been more professional and human at the same time.
Dennis, our driver and guide was full of information and interesting anecdotes. He and the cook were very easy to get along with and pleasant to talk to.

I had a great time!
I've seen "the big five", thanks to Steve our nice driver. Steve is really a humor guy. Our cook, Samwel is also a good guy and his service is acceptable. You cannot expect fancy foods in a safari trip I think. The only thing that I don't like is that sometimes we had to eat like vegetarians. I don't know if it's due to the tight of the balance for a cheaper safari.
The worst thing is the policy of the company. The price of your safari depends on how well you can bargain with the tour operator but not depends on the quality of the service and not depend fairly on how many people sharing the cars. Since I went alone, I had to join others. I had to pay 750 $ for 4 days of safari and others people in my group had to pay 750$ for 5 days. Shabani, the tour operator even wanted to charge me for 800$ if I didn't try to bargain. This is really a short-term benefit policy! One more thing even worse is that after a long trip of safari, we were brought to the company office and forced to give comments about the company. They didn't ask us if we want to go there to give comment or not! What kind of comment you will give in front of them? This is just ridiculous. I hope they'll read this comment and then improve their quality of service.
Overall, nothing is perfect. I had a great time in Tanzania. I will come back here in the future if I can afford.

Great trip!
It has been an amazing trip to Uganda! Great to see Africa's wildlife. Thanks to the two guides who helped to make the trip an unforgettable experience with their always good mood! Will be happy to travel with them again another time :-)

very satisfied
The communication and overall organization of the trip was really excellent.
We just misunderstood one small detail which is the reason for one missing star.
Otherwise I can only recommend this services and I'm going to use them again myself.

An unforgettable experience with Encounter Africa Safaris
I arrived in Entebbe with my family for a 15 day tour and, from that point on, never stopped marvelling! The guide that drove with us for the whole trip was so informative and keen to do whatever he could to ensure we were comfortable and got the most out of our visit. I felt very safe and was pleasantly surprised with the beautiful places we visited and lodged at. The game drives and boat cruises were plentiful and so exciting; we saw many beautiful animals. Our guide was also very respectful of the wildlife, keeping distance instead of harassing the animals for a better view. This was something very important to our whole group. I can't thank Encounter Africa Safaris enough for making my trip such an unforgettable experience!

A truly great experience
Thank you to our guide Joseph and the Management Team with Mary, Thomas and Ismail for a truly great Tanzania Safari experience. Our Group of six enjoyed the two weeks with Joseph very much. He was helpful and friendly all the time, knew everything we wanted to know and was flexible enough to change the itinerary according to our (or the time's) needs. We saw almost everything there is to see and slept in the nicest spots. It could not have been much better! Thanks

Beautiful Uganda
I had three unforgettable weeks in beautiful Uganda. Cheetah Safaris Uganda had planned the trip around the country, so that we got to see as much as possible. We had two guides: Robert and David. Their knowledge of the culture and wildlife was truly impressive.
In three weeks we had three safaris in three different locations, we did gorilla and chimp trekking, were on cultural tours and white water rafting in Jinja.
It was an amazing trip and I will strongly recommend Cheetah Safaris Uganda to everyone.

Lifetime Experience
A friend recommended Gorilla Trek Africa so I decided to contact them. When I first emailed them to inquire about tours to Rwanda they were very professional and got back to me quickly and after deciding what tour to do I booked for my husband and I and we weren't disappointed. On arrival in Rwanda we were met by David our guide who was friendly, had lots of knowledge, good English and nothing was a problem for him. The car was clean and reliable and our hotel was excellent - everything about the tour was exceptional. I have recommended Gorilla Trek Africa to friends as they make your trip to Rwanda a memorable one.
