Petras dream to be in Uganda
We have to say thank you for this trip! It was my dream since I was a little girl to visit Uganda and of course to see the Gorillas in nature. We picked up by Sam and he was 12 days our private guide, driver and helpful hand.
All lodges and people we met were so friendly and we wouldn't miss every time we spend there. We will come back to visit Uganda again.
My special experience was the last big tour to the Gorillas.....hard work for myself and I will never forget in my lifetime.

Trustworthy, committed and reliable tour operator
We've climbed in October 2024 with Zanzi trekking and safari's in Arusha. The crew is very committed to get you to the top. Everything is in done in order so that you'll make it, that made us a bit emotional at the end of the trip as well (in a positive way). The guides George and Lazaro are experienced guides, who behave professionally. We would easily trust our lives to them again.
Don't forget to ask/request a packing list beforehand, if they haven't sent it to you yet when you booked a trekking.

Isaac was a fabulous guide and made our safari one of the best experts my life. Beyond 5 stars
Africa has many hidden gems. Authentic Africa Safaris created a custom adventure that surpassed my wildest dreams. From trekking with gorillas and chimps, to going down the Nile seeing a waterfall and getting chased by hippos. It was epic! If you want a trip to make your dream of Africa come true, Authentic Safaris will make it happen

Education, excitement, and full-on exhilaration, all in one package.
Thale Kolhus put together a great lodging package. Each lodge was unique to the park's varied areas. She then matched us up with knowledgeable drivers who educated us on not only the wildlife and their habitat but also an inside on the people of South Africa and points of interest. Thale added the Moholoholo Rehab Center to help raise awareness of how endangered these animals are. I would not change a thing and would recommend Wild Planet Safari to anyone, and any family looking for a trip of a lifetime.

Unforgettable experience - excellent guide
Me and my partner had the pleasure of going on a six-day private safari with Destiny Explorers at the beginning of September, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, the organization and attention to detail were exceptional. We visited stunning locations including Tarangire National Park, Lake Natron, the northern Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Each stop was breathtaking and offered unique wildlife encounters. The itinerary was well-balanced, giving us ample time for game drives while also allowing for moments of relaxation.
Our guide, Gilbert was always friendly and fun, making the journey even more enjoyable. He is an impeccable driver, ensuring that we always felt safe on the roads. He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about wildlife and ecosystems, and we were amazed by the incredible variety of mammals, reptiles and birds we spotted. He provided fascinating explanations about each species and it was great to learn so much about the local ecosystem. Gilbert made sure we got the best views of the Big Five and wildebeests migration at Mara River, sharing insights about the animals and their behaviors. His passion for nature is evident and really enhanced our experience.
Issa, the company manager, was helpful in planning our itinerary and selecting accommodations that suited our mid-range budget. He was also flexible and made a small adjustment to our itinerary during the safari, allowing us to visit Olduvai Gorge and its museum, which was a highlight for us.
The accommodations provided by Destiny Explorers were comfortable and offered stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. Each location was well-chosen, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the beauty of Tanzania. The food throughout the trip was delicious and catered to our dietary preferences, which was a nice touch.
We chose Destiny Explorers mainly because they are a local Tanzanian company, and we believe it's important to support local businesses in our travel choices. The dedication and commitment to providing a great experience were evident in every aspect of our safari.
Overall, we highly recommend Destiny Explorers for anyone looking to explore the incredible wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania. A special thank you to Gilbert for making this experience so memorable; your kindness, peaceful nature, expertise, and driving skills made all the difference. This trip exceeded our expectations, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that everyone should have at least once!

Robert was professional, kind, and enthusiastic. I will definitely call on his services again!
I highly recommend anyone to have a ride or Safari with Robert. His knowledge and expertise is beyond compare. He is polite, well spoken, and funny. He is an excellent driver and we felt very safe with him. We enjoyed our time in his van and knew we were in good hands. It was great to feel so comfortable and well cared for when we were so far away from home. I will definitely call upon him for transfers and Safari the next time I’m in Kenya! I highly recommend you do the same!

Absolutely Worth a Second Visit
This trip to Tanzania was fantastic, especially the safari tour. Choosing Meijo as our travel agency was a wise decision. Marcelina arranged the itinerary very reasonably, and Daudi was able to solve any minor issues immediately. The best part was our guide, Andrea. He was very experienced and incredibly patient. During the safari, we not only saw the Big Five, but also numerous lions, including a group of cubs. We even witnessed a lion hunting a rhinoceros. For those who choose Meijo in the future, requesting Andrea as your guide is definitely the right choice. We enjoyed this safari so much that we plan to return in February or March to see the animal birthing season and experience the different landscapes. This trip to Tanzania changed our impression of Africa. The people here are hardworking, kind, and very hospitable. Africa is a wonderful place.

First class mount kilimanjaro experience with Almighty Kilimanjaro
A genuinely excellent expedition led by Joseph and supported by john. From start to finish, the team could not have done more to look after us and were absolutely key to us reaching the summit. The food was excellent (portions, variety and frequency) and particularly note goes to Shabani, who was a very friendly and diligent waiter in support of the climbers. Would highly recommend!
