Excellence with a smile
Theresia made some great plans for four days, what to see, where to stay and how to get there when I asked her for suggestions, for a reasonable price. I had some great days together with Eric, my guid and Safidy, our driver. Safidy made a good job on those crazy,bumpy roads- I felt secure all the time. Eric shared lots of personal stories, cultural traditions and knew a lot about both history and animals . we had a really good time. So, if you looking for a team that wants to do the best for your vacation- choose Soul of Madagascar.

Perfect Safari in Tanzania
We truly had an amazing safari in Tanzania where we made amazing memories. We are totally impressed by the amazing work put in by Gecko Adventure Tanzania to make sure that we had an excellent time. Our guide Philip went above and beyond to find all the animals that we wanted to see, and also to keep our young boys captivated. He answered all our questions with well thought out answers and his genuine concern for our comfort and happiness was evident all through.
We saw many different animals ranging from the huge elephants, lions, leopard, rhinos, wild dogs, hyenas, buffaloes and lots wildebeest in Northern Serengeti.
We were impressed by the lengths that Rama had gone to ensure we had a perfect experiences, like organizing for a complimentary birthday cake for my son Toon at Pakulala Camp in Ngorongoro on his birthday! That was really cool!
The overall experience was amazing and given another opportunity we would return in heartbeat.

10/10 experience
I had a truly amazing time on this tour! Ruth the person I was in contact with before my tour was very communicative, answered all of my questions and made adjustments to my trip on request. This originally was supposed to me a solo trip but I another solo female traveler was put on my tour which was a nice surprise. Farouk- my driver/guide- was an excellent source of information, very friendly, and a safe driver. While the journey was long (driving 10 hours to get there) Farouk made it easy with plenty of rest stops. The guesthouses we stayed in had staff that went above and beyond! They offered several short walks- a nature walk, a community walk, or a walk to the Pygmy people’s village. The meals were also excellent. The gorilla trek was of course the best part! The guide for that were also excellent, they shared lots of information, ensured we seen the gorillas and were able to follow them for the duration of our hour, and pointed out other wild life. The second day we went to Lake Bunyonyi after the gorilla trek. This was also great and included a boat ride around the lake. I also wanted to try to local gin and Farouk helped me to find that. The final day we drove back to Kampala and stopped to see how the local drums were made. East African Jungle Safari really met all of my expectations and went beyond. I would highly recommend EAJS to anyone and recommend Farouk as a driver. I will definitely be booking my next tour with them!

Amazing local guide - excellent value for money
Emmanuel was knowledgeable, attentive and ensured that we had the best day. He organised chimp trekking for us in the morning and picked us up from our guest house. On the way to Kibale he explained exactly what we should expect. The trekking was great - we saw so many chimps really close.
We hadn't booked anything for the afternoon and Emmanuel suggested some ideas - but didn't put any pressure on us. We ended up going to the village community at Bigodi where we learned to make banana beer, coffee and weaved baskets - it was extremely interesting and we felt that we got an insight into Ugandan rural culture.
All through the day Emmanuel was alongside us and wanted to make sure that we enjoyed it. I can't rate him highly enough. If we come back to Fort Portal we will certainly use him again

Romantic Honeymoon Escapade
My husband and I did Kilimanjaro as part of our honeymoon. We had contacted a couple of companies but it was Mboni Adventures that stole the show with their professionalism, ability to tailor the trip to suit our needs and within a reasonable budget.
We had a great crew led by guides Brian and Jacob supported by six porters and Carlos the camp chef. They all did exceptionally well to keep us comfortable and safe all through the trek.
The weather was pretty good though it rained heavily between Barranco and Karanga camps, luckily we had been kitted with waterproof tents that kept the water away, and had also packed the waterproof jacket and pants. The views were amazing and we are happy to have taken Jackson's advice on taking the Lemosho route. It was very scenic and quite sheltered from the elements. Getting to the summit was not easy and we could not have made it without Brian and Jacob taking the lead. It had snowed heavily and the tracks totally hidden, their keen eyes and prior knowledge of the route assured our success.
The food was unbelievably delicious and Carlos served very generous portions for everyone. Meal times were always very jovial with the crew creating a very warm atmosphere.
A big shout out to the entire Mboni Adventures team for organizing this epic journey that we will cherish for a longtime.

Incredible and more than we were hoping for, 100% recommending to friends and family.
100% recommending to friends and family. Did our research and Suricata delivered! Amazing experience.
Our 5-day safari with Suricata Safaris was an unforgettable journey through some of Tanzania’s most stunning landscapes. From the start, Suricata’s team impressed us with their professionalism, organization, and warmth. Our guide Rocky was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic, making every game drive an exciting and educational experience. We visited Lake Manyara, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater, each location offering its unique charm and an abundance of wildlife.
We were thrilled to see all the Big Five, witness a cheetah sprint, and spot the rare tree-climbing lions—all with our guide’s expert insights. Suricata arranged comfortable accommodations, including a tented camp that made us feel fully immersed in the wild yet safe. The entire experience felt thoughtfully curated, from seamless transportation to delicious hot lunches and dinners. This safari not only exceeded our expectations but gave us memories to last a lifetime. We wholeheartedly recommend Suricata Safaris to anyone looking to experience Tanzania’s beauty and wildlife at its best.

Exception attention
We went on safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, and I can't thank Oscar enough for arranging such a great experience. From the moment we started, it was clear that every detail had been carefully planned. Oscar ensured that the transport, lodges, and timings were perfect, allowing me to focus solely on the incredible wildlife.
A major highlight of the trip was our guide, Emanuel. His deep knowledge of the parks and the animals made the journey even more memorable. He was not only skilled at spotting wildlife.His expertise truly elevated the experience, and I felt fortunate to have such a passionate guide. This safari was an unforgettable adventure, made even better by Oscar’s excellent planning and Emanuel's exceptional guidance.

Amazing experience
Me and my fiend decided to do something memorable on our 50th Birthday. After exploring many options, we hatched a plan to trek to the summit of Kilimanjaro. We’ve been recommended Almighty Kilimanjaro by a group of friends. So we approached Rashid from Almighty Kilimanjaro . He was super helpful in terms of answering questions, offering suggestions and his willingness to help. He also organised a day trip to Kikuletwa hotspring for us in a very short notice and we had a great time. It was a great experience. Driver and a guide were lovely and friendly.
We started our trek to Kilimanjaro on 20th October with a brilliant team of 12 people. All the Staff members were lovely, funny and friendly and they looked after us really well throughout the journey. We reached to the top on 25th at 6.40 in the morning. Breathtaking views from the top and views of sunrise, immediately compensated my tired body and achy legs.
I would like to thank entire team of Almighty Kilimanjaro and Rashidy for their hardwork and help to create this amazing memory. I would highly recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro to everyone who is thinking about creating a similar memory as us.
Pole Pole, means slowly slowly in local language, you hear them from every other person you pass by, were probably the best thing to cope with the altitude. It was certainly what I did.

Safe, Affordable, Absolutely amazing experience
Honestly, it was my first time in Africa, and I was very anxious about how to choose from all the safari tours available. However, they maintained great communication with quick responses right up until the day of the tour. The driver, hotel, and food were all excellent, and the care after the tour was wonderful as well. I absolutely want to join a safari tour with this company again. Thank you for an amazing experience! I highly recommend them.
Thanks a lot🫶🏻🫶🏻❤️🔥
