Experienced
Our guide Khalifa was very friendly, knowledged and very experienced. He answered our endless questions, drove very smoothly, gave us flexibility with different options for the game drives and thanks to him, we saw many animals and learned about them. We’d definitely recommend going on a tour with him, thank you for the tour!

The best in the business
My husband and I had the pleasure of taking the 5-day gorilla and chimpanzee experience tour with Nature Connect Safaris. From my initial inquiry until the tour was complete, I had excellent communication from Francis regarding our itinerary, including a packing list and information on obtaining our Ugandan tourist visas. He was very proactive, and he replied quickly and thoroughly to my emails. I felt completely informed and well-prepared for our trip. Our guide, Sam, made this the best trip we have ever taken. His friendly and kind personality set the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable journey. He is extremely knowledgeable, and we learned so much from him about not only wildlife, but also the history and culture of Uganda. I highly recommend Nature Connect Safaris Uganda and would love the opportunity to travel with them again.

Great fun with the best guide!
Four of us booked a private safari with Kilipath for three nights and four days, and it was incredible! We visited the parks and the crater (seriously, don’t miss the crater!), and Hamza, our driver, was amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw the Big Five and so much more. With his experience and great communication with other drivers, he got us to all the best spots. The team even surprised us with a cake and champagne at the airport on our last day to celebrate my wife’s birthday- such a thoughtful and personal touch! Huge thanks to Kilipath for making it all so special. A lifetime of memories!

Amazing Value, Great Communication, Incredible Wildlife
A huge shoutout to Joel, who felt more like a reliable friend than just a safari organizer. I highly recommend Tanzania Pilgrimage Safaris to anyone planning a safari trip in Serengeti areas. From inquiries and booking to pick-ups, briefings, and the actual safari—right up until we returned to our hotel—everything ran on time, allowing us to maximize our safari experience. We even lucked out with an awesome shared group—it was so much fun meeting new people along the way.
Joel’s response time is exceptional, unlike many other operators who slow down once you’ve paid a booking fee. He also went above and beyond when a flight of mine got canceled, actively monitoring the situation and offering practical tips. Plus, he explained a lot about Arusha, our city hub. Thanks to all this, we managed to spot the Big Five—truly unforgettable. Overall, it’s a budget-friendly option with five-star service!

Very nice people arranging everything for you
Amazing experience! We saw so many animals and the car was very comfortable. Good views and very close to animals. Levis is a very nice guide with very interesting stories about his life as a Massai.

Ron was impeccable and helped to create an unforgettable experience!
My husband and I did a 10 day safari tour for our honeymoon through Frena Adventures. To say our experience was incredible is an understatement. We had Ron as our personal tour guide throughout the entirety of the trip and he truly made our first experience to Africa one that we will never forget. He made his wealth of knowledge as well as his passion for what he does evident every single day and I am positive that we could not have had any better of a guide! From the Rwanda genocide memorial, to the indigenous Batwa community, to the wildlife and nature throughout Uganda, our experiences felt limitless and were surely unforgettable. If this is a trip that’s on your mind, I would recommend this company and Ron to anyone who is looking to be truly immersed within such a rich culture!

Perfect ride through Tanzanian parks with best guide and his sharp eye for group of biologists
Best value for money we found in 2024. Easy communication, perfect service above our expectations. We had a problem leaving Kili airport, but the driver from Cubs went back and helped us with the issue. Well planned safari especially for us as we were a group of biologists, lots of info and storytelling. We were always first near every animal, as our guide and driver had a sharp eye and good knowledge of savannah.

The whole experience was great, and I saw a lot of animals.
Papa is a very good tour guide, taking us to see all the animals of big fine. They will chat with us and tell us stories about animals. We will be reminded to bring our luggage and passports every day. The whole trip is very good.

Jartan is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his country; both the tribes and animals.
Jartan was interested in learning about our culture and easily shared his own life experiences. He wasn’t just a tour guide he became a friend to each of us. He always checked on our comfort level and worked to correct even the smallest thing. He never left anything to chance.
He also, seemed to know exactly where the animals might be as we rarely went for long without seeing multiple animals and a variety of landscapes and animals. He was able to impart knowledge about the country and its people as well. I especially enjoyed meeting the variety of tribes and learning and interacting with them. He understood that joy was found not just in the sighting of an animal, but in the gentle smile of a native lady and that hugs and smiles are a universal way to communicate.
Jartan’s tour was a remarkable blend of people, animals, and the tranquility of an amazing land.
I highly recommend him as a tour guide and friend, as you will leave Africa feeling that you received more than your moneys worth and an adventure of a lifetime!
