The Tanzania Choice Safaris team made this an amazing trip for our family!
Brenda, Leslie and team were amazing in every aspect of our trip. From the initial discussions about itinerary and lodging choices, Brenda was extremely helpful and responsive to our many questions - always openly communicating about any changes or potential new options available. Leslie was an extraordinary guide - and even better person - who was extremely patient with our kids' request and questions. It made such a great difference to experience this trip with a guide who obviously loves what he does!
Many many thanks to the whole team for making this an amazing trip!

Great experience and well organized.
My partner and I recently returned from a three-day, two-night luxury private safari with Crater Explore, and we can’t recommend them highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff was exceptionally friendly and organized, making us feel welcome and valued throughout our entire journey. Our guide, Chazz, was absolutely amazing—his passion for wildlife and his extensive knowledge made the trip unforgettable. We were treated to clean and comfortable hotels and enjoyed delicious meals. Over our three days, we were fortunate to see every animal we had hoped to encounter, with the only exception being a rhino.
It’s worth noting that the roads during our safari were quite dry and dusty. We did notice many other safari companies on the same routes, resulting in busy roads that kicked up quite a bit of dust. Additionally, while the roads were bumpy once we were in the safari areas, my partner and I found it more amusing than bothersome. Just a little heads up for fellow travelers! Overall, our experience with Crater Explore was nothing short of amazing.

Fantastic safari experience!
Our group, Safari Seven, had an excellent safari arranged by Gametrackers. Stacey was able to listen to what we wanted and tailored the trip specifically for us. Our guide, Zach, always did his best to get us to the best places to observe wildlife. We were even able to see the start of the wildebeest migration. I think Gametrackers is a great company to do business with, and at a very fair price. I will be using them again if I am ever lucky enough to return to Africa.

Adventure Safaris
I have had an amazing experience with Ekarua Safaris, and my expectations were tremendously fulfilled. From exhilarating night safaris to early morning game drives, each day came with a different package of amusement, talking about the guide, he was super cool, and he enhanced our experience by making sure he communicated important insights on the scenery and fauna. Camping under the stars was so amazing, and the walking safaris provided us with a very near viewing of wildlife. I recommend Ekarua Safaris if you wish to experience the outdoors in a novel and daring manner.

Detailed, dependable and quick to answer
We had a great experience with Savannah Woods Safaris from start to finish. Lucy provided us with a detailed tour package for 2 different trips: an overnight safari in Amboseli National Park and a day trip to Hell's Gate, Naivasha Lake and Crescent Island. She was very easy to work with and answered all of our questions quickly. Our tour guide/driver Anthony was right on time, polite and just plain nice. He was a safe driver and was informative about the park and animal facts. On our safari we watched a pride of lions eating a buffalo and we returned the next day to see the progress of the feast. There were many "extras" that Anthony threw in for us , going above and beyond in order to give us a wonderful time. Prices with Savannah Woods Safaris were comparable to other agencies that did not provide the same service or information.

Above and beyond service, best Safari ever and I have been on many!
Firstly I want to say that I am in tourism myself. I have a camp in the Sahara Desert and I work with desert and tour drivers. I am born and bread in Africa although British. I wanted my children to come and see where their mother grew up. This trip was very important to me. I wanted an authentic, comfortable experience. Bernard worked through my wishes and changes bending over backwards for us. We booked last minute in the end (1 week before arriving) due to work and visa constraints.
I cannot fault this Safari. Even in the hotel, we had the best family suite, in the tented lodge we had the best tent with a complete view of the Masai Mara, it was breath-taking. Both accommodation were superb. The most important aspect of the trip was our driver in the Masai - John, he had 30 years experience in tracking and was a conservation and ecologist. Daily educating us and my 11 year old son who got such an education from him. We saw more animals than any people at our camp or I dare say with drivers less experienced from very expensive luxury camps, as we witnessed, sadly the disrespect of many drivers. John was a rare diamond.
We never had to wait to be collected along the itinerary, Bernard the owner came to meet us on arrival and give us gifts.
I contact several safari agencies claiming to be exceptional and fast with response. They were not or they wanted to chat and it became laborious with them before I started. Bernard went straight onto whatsapp with me and sent itineraries which I could respond to quickly. He always found solutions quickly and efficiently, it was a joy to deal with him. I'm way to busy for laborious selling. What sets Kudu apart is that you are looked after by the boss, with huge experience. Mara Engai Lodge was great, tents in the jungle with guards to walk with you. Stunning views and the nicest staff I have ever met.
We then went onto Amboseli as I wanted to see the tuskers. As we enter there was 'Craig' we knew we had been lucky, Tawi lodge that we arrived at could not believe it. We love Tawi lodge too, really special, our bathroom had a bath view of Kilimanjaro! They had a swimming pool next to a watering hole, when the kids were swimming an elephant walked up! I told Jack our second driver that we were here just for the elephants, he then changed his plan, enlisting a Masai Guide called David. We then collected David and had a private view with Craig and we were able to get so incredibly close to this giant tusker as he trusted the guide.
We had a really wonderful time I could not fault it, even the staff on the small aircraft were so incredibly lovely and professional. In Nairobi I took the children to the Elephant orphanage, Kudu even helped me organise this, even though it wasnt part of our itinerary. They also helped me with my Tanzanian visas, if they hadnt stepped in Im not sure we would have been able to spend our last week in Zanzibar which I had booked independently. They really went above expectation helping us even though it wasnt part of our package. Will definatly use them again and so should you!

Murchison Fall NP with Jamal
I had the pleasure of travelling with driver and guide Jamal, while he was subcontracted for Kisoboka Tours.
Jamal is a caring and knowledgeable guide, and a safe driver.
During the safari tours he has a keen eye on spotting wildlife.
I was particularly impressed by the respect he pays for the safety of the visitors as well as the local wildlife. He speaksup if either visitors or colleagues do something that endanger either of the two.
Besides that he is a nice and sympathetic person as well.
I would certainly contact him if I wanted to see other parts of Uganda.
