5 Stars for Gilmag Safari! Heartfelt Thanks to Gody and Felix
Our recent trip to Tanzania proved that the glowing 5-star reviews for Gilmag Safari are absolutely legitimate., from planning to execution.
Our local guide, Godlistens (Gody): Gody is a phenomenal, 5-star guide. He prioritized our safety while consistently positioning us for incredible, close-up wildlife views. As a bird enthusiast with still much to learn, I am impressed by his expertise; he is a walking offline Wikipedia who patiently answered all our repeated questions. Upon request, he also shared fascinating stories that gave us meaningful insights into Tanzania's beautiful culture and local customs.
Seamless Coordination by Felix: A huge shout-out to Felix for his exceptionally prompt responses during the planning stages and throughout the trip. He patiently addressed every minor detail we raised and even went the extra mile to coordinate a birthday cake and celebration for my friend.
Outstanding Accommodations: We spent most of our stay at Lemala Lodges, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The food, service, and overall comfort made us feel entirely welcome and safe. The outdoor showers were a spectacular highlight!
Tip for Future Travelers: If you do not fancy taking a dip in the water, we suggest skipping the Chemka Hotspring. While the scenery is beautiful, it is a very long drive, and the local guards can be overly pushy for tips.
Thank you, Gilmag Safari, for an extraordinary journey. We cannot recommend Gody and Felix highly enough!

Serengeti Unforgettable safaris forever
This was one of the best experiences of our lives - I am sure we will remember it forever!
Our guide Gilbert was so well informed and really tried to make this experience special for us. We saw many Elephants, Lions, Zebras, Wildebeest, Warthogs and so many more and also had the luck to see a rhino, and a leopard and a cheetah up close - it was amazing!! The landscape was also something else, such a once in a lifetime experience!
Our cook Salim was so talented and prepared so many delicious meals for us.
The accommodations were perfect and luckily we had the best car, which never got stuck, even in the most muddy areas.
If you want a perfect Safari with no troubles whatsoever you should ask for Gilbert and his Land Rover - they are a dream team!
All in all this was the most special experience if you love nature and want to see wild animals up close in their natural habitat. We are so happy we chose Serengeti Unforgettable safaris for our trip and would definitely choose them again if we ever come back to Tanzania!
Thank you so much!!

David is really helpful and knows about animal
Great trip, hotel was good, seen Lion, cheeta, and a lots of elephants. Having traffic jam on the way back, guides choose a detour swiftly and send us back on time.

They are extremely professional
Visiting the gorillas in Rwanda with Explore Plus was a dream come true. Not in my wildest imagination did I think we would get so close to them. It was just unbelievably fantastic

A flawless trip that was tailored perfectly to our needs.
We were looking for a last-minute Eid getaway but ended up booking the trip of a lifetime. What began as a four-day journey on a tight budget evolved into eight unforgettable days filled with extraordinary experiences for two families.
As we learned and explored the possibilities, Bob patiently adapted the itinerary, offering thoughtful suggestions and collaborating closely with us until we had created our ideal holiday. Our wish list was ambitious: volcanoes, waterfalls, boat trips, horse riding, golf, and, of course, plenty of wildlife. Every request was considered, and when the trip finally came together, it exceeded our expectations.
The lodges were beautiful, the food fresh and delicious, and the team (Francis and Chris) throughout our journey were fun, kind and very knowledgable. We found it incredibly difficult to leave. Understandably, concerns about health and global uncertainty had been on our minds before traveling, but we were so well looked after that those worries quickly disappeared, allowing us to fully relax and immerse ourselves in culture, breathtaking landscapes and wonderful people.
We have become unofficial ambassadors for Uganda and are already looking forward to our next visit.

Magical experience
As a first time solo traveller, first time to Africa and safari, I have to say that my entire holiday experience was spectacular. The highlight was my safari which I booked through Viva Safari's. From the initial booking experience via email to the actual holiday itself, I have been nothing but impressed with their efficiency and friendly nature. I cannot fault any aspect of my safari, the lodges, the food, the information, communication, comfort, facilities, game drives and different experiences and value for money was clearly outstanding and magical. I never once felt alone and felt part of a big family the entire time. I will definitely be returning and would use and highly recommend Viva to anyone thinking of a safari. THANK YOU for making my trip so special.
