My experience with Africa Nziza Odysseys was exceptionally FANTASTIC!!!
Our travel adventure to Uganda with Africa Nziza Odysseys exceeded our expectations on every level. The experience was OUTSTANDING!!!
Mr. Bernard Alineitwe, our travel organizer, demonstrated the greatest level of concern for the implementation of every detail that enhanced our safari journey. He consistently catered to the concerns of every member of our group and provided unique opportunities that allowed us to create exciting, lifetime memories! The service that we enjoyed at every safari location was EXCELLENT.
It was obvious that significant thought, and detailed planning, went into the preparation of our trip. We would not hesitate to recommend Africa Nziza Odysseys to our family and friends. In fact, we intend to use their excellent services for our next African Adventure this year!!

He was knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and accommodating.
From the first contact to arrival back at our hotel, Flash McTours has been excellent. Ahead of the tour, all our questions were answered via email in a helpful, timely fashion. There were just two on this particular tour so we felt like we were on a private tour. The tour guide/driver was punctual, experienced, professional. We could not have asked for more from them. The lodge where we stayed and the meals served were amazing. We saw 1000's of animals and got incredible pictures with just our phones. The amount charged and the services provided were just as advertised and we feel we got more than our money's worth. We highly recommend Flash McTours.

Useful and educational safari tour
The safari tour was good however I would have preffered to see more wildlife specifically big cats.

I had such a wonderful safari with Saso Uganda Safari.
Setting up the safari was very easy. My concerns about payment were put aside because the company was in constant contact with me though out the months I was planning my vacation. They picked me up exactly when they said with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Ours was 3 days, I honestly wish it was longer. I would call them again next time I come visit.

Enthusiastic guide and journey
Coming to Uganda for the first time, I had no idea what to expect, especially with a large group. From the moment we met our guide, he was very informative about the different areas we traveled through and eager to answer any questions we had. On the safari tour there were many opportunities to see different animals which I had never seen before. Our guide in the bus was also very educated about the lives of the animals, and we took many pictures along the way. This trip definitely lived up to my expectations, and I feel like I had a really authentic Uganda experience.

A really fun, enjoyable and relaxing experience.
We had an amazing time in Tanzania over our 10-day stay. We spent most of our time out and about in 2 different Safari parks. Our guides Emmanuel and Douglas were very knowledgable and helpful. Always willing to adress our concerns or satisfy our whims. It really was sort of like build your own adventure. A couple of specific encounters come to mind. Like when we asked to try true local cuisine we were shown to this nice and cozy, out-of-the way place which you would probably never find by yourself. They were willing to make extra time for us to do stuff that wasn't originally planned. Like taking us to a snake centre because one of us really wanted to see snakes. During the safaris themselves they showed excellent knowledge of the wild-life. For example the habits of the animals, where to find them, local folk tales and legends, all sorts of bits and pieces and even if we managed to stump them with a question they had books on hand to find the answers for us. Maybe most importantly of all they were extremely friendly and approachable. They made us feel welcome and that we never had to hold back.
All in all we had the time of our lives and left feeling like we had found a home away from home.

very educational and structured throughout the whole tour.
Overall, I really liked the whole experience. The instructors were very clear in their explanations and so made the tour very educational and interesting. Also the places we stayed at during the safari were very well chosen and made the trip even nicer than it already was.

Trustworthy operator - highly recommended
We selected Earthlife Expeditions after contacting a number of highly rated safari operators in Tanzania. Only Earthlife provided the itinerary that we were looking for, with the type of accommodations we had asked for and the requested number of nights.
Communications with the owner Deo were prompt and polite. We also contacted a number of previous customers who gave positive feedback.
Unfortunately we had to cancel our safari several months before travel due to a change in circumstances. In accordance with Earthlife's terms and conditions (provided before booking), a portion of the deposit was transferred back to us within a matter of a few weeks. Trust is a huge aspect of booking directly with an operator based remotely and Earthlife have proved themselves to be reputable and trustworthy.
We will certainly use them in the future.

A great experience in South Luangwa
Our experience with Dens Safaris was quite good. We hired a 5 day and 4 night tour to South Luangwa.
Denver picked us up at our accommodation in Lilongwe (capital of Malawi) and moved us in a private vehicle to the border with Zambia, where we changed to another vehicle that took us to South Luangwa. Denver explained to us that they use their official 4x4 vehicles only if the number of passengers justifies, and as in this case we were only my girlfriend and I chose to mobilize from and to Luangwa in conventional vehicles. In any case, Denver told us that the game drives would be carried out in 4x4 vehicles.
We stayed at Croc Valley Camp as planned by Denver. Initially we had a tent (tent), but we were finally accommodated in larger tents equipped with beds and a safe (a major improvement!). The service at Croc Camp is very good (meals especially), and you have the possibility to see animals roaming freely around the place (at night they even crossed a couple of hippos a few meters from the store).
The game drives were carried out in 4x4 vehicles of Croc Valley Camp, some of which are quite old and require improvement. Even so they never had a panne or problem that prevented us from continuing. In total we had 7 game drives (4 sunset / night and 3 morning), all guided by the same guide that is part of Croc Camp Valley, and shared with other guests of Croc Camp. Denver was present in most of them, showing their interest that everything turned out well in our tour (the rest of the passengers depended only on Croc Camp). The guide that took us to the game drives (Simon) had a lot of knowledge, but often he gave a lot of time to animals or birds that were frequent to find, and little time to others that could be more attractive or unusual (many very showy birds and colorful were ignored, either because the guide did not see them despite being in front of him, or they may not have been attractive to him .. who knows). Despite those details, we saw many species of mammals, reptiles and birds, which confirmed that South Luangwa is one of the places that every lover of safari MUST visit. Especially we highlighted the possibility of spotting leopards hunting during the night, which was repeated during 3 of the 4 night safaris! Wild dogs, many elephants with offspring, thornicroft giraffes, lions, birds, etc.
We recommend Dens Safaris since the price paid is reasonable considering the number of game drives that included the tour and the facilities where we stayed (approx USD 490 per passenger, + tickets to Luangwa for USD 25 per day per person).
