Sympatic
We got the option for three days and sleeping in a tent both nights, which was the cheapest option. We saw lots of animals and our driver was amazing, he told us a lot about the landscape and the animals. The food was totally fine, the tents were okay for the two nights. If I would do a Safari for longer, I would recommend the other nights in the lodges. All in all we had an amazing time and it was a wonderful experience, to see the wildlife in Tanzania!

Excellent safari journey with MorningStar
We 2 persons, chose Morningstar as our safari agency becasue of a quite detailed, prompt response from Alice. She is always helpful, patient and agile for all my questions or the situations we met. All quotations has the breakdown, even proposal changes, there will be a transparent update on the quotation which make us feel morningstar is reliable. It might not be the cheapest price but it's our choose to secure us a pleasant, expected journey in Africa.
Morningstar is quite reliable, you can also find that they had a good relationship with the lodges/camps when we check-in in different places.
Alice arranged Willy as our 10 days safari guide and driver, I highly recommend Willy as the safari guide because of his excellent drive skills (safety first especially you may have long-time drive from one national park to another), rich experience on animals behavior and habitat! The most important thing is that Willy highly repect the animals, he knows what kind of distance should be kept between the vehicle and animals, so that the wildlift can be respected and protected, while the guests can also get the good photoes. We should always respect the wildlife, this is their home.
I would recommend morningstar to our friends.

NaShibe is the most dishonest tour operator I have ever had!
I had a very unpleasant tour with Nashibe, where I found their tours from safari booking.com which I suggest this company should be removed from the website, to avoid more people being cheated by them.
I had an agreement with Caren from the company with a price and lodge accommodation. After my deposit paid, she sent me a almost totally different itinerary. My 7 nights lodge has changed to 3 nights in Camp, 2 nights in a resort which the price was not even as half as my original itinerary booking( showing on the booking.com).
I had to join the tour cos they already took my 30 percent deposit!
The only 2 nights lodge I stayed , one has a big pitfall next to my room! I trapped into it as walking in the dark and injured myself! All they did was just moved me to another room!
The driver we were provided got a bit sick from the first day of safari, I asked if he is ok or do we need change to another driver but he insisted to continue. However everyday we have to negotiate for not finished the safari early and stick with the itinerary plan! We’re literally exhausted by just dealing with him. Not to mention the last day we drove back to Nairobi and he was caught by police cos somehow his license was expired and we were stopped on the road for 2 hours !

Must-Go Tour! Highly recommended for great itinerary
First of all, great itinerary and eye-opening experience, especially for history buffs and enthusiasts. We love our tour guide, Sello, for being approachable & friendly and the tour itself is unlike others which can be intense, this one feels just nice. Would recommend to other people to join this tour if they come to Johannesburg next time!

Everything you can asked for during your visit to Uganda-Rwanda.
Bamboo Ecotours exceeded our expectations during our tour. From the very beginning, when planning our trip, Edison responded to our emails promptly. He also showed us the different accommodation options they offer and was very helpful with the visa process, staying in constant contact via WhatsApp and email.
A week before our trip, Edison shared the name of our tour guide, which made us feel safe and prepared. Jackson, our guide, was the best we could have asked for. We arrived at Kigali airport and drove all the way to Uganda for our first stay. Along the way, Jackson pointed out many interesting insights about Kigali, and we even had a coffee stop (by the way, you have to try African coffee!).
On our second day, Jackson took us to Bwindi National Park, where we met our trekking group. One thing we loved about the gorilla trekking, besides the gorillas themselves, is that it wasn’t crowded. Groups are split between 8 to 10 people, and each group visits a different gorilla family. This way, the gorillas don’t experience too much human interaction, and the experience feels more personal. From the moment you see your first gorilla, the one-hour time limit begins. We were accompanied by the guide, two park rangers, and there’s also an option to hire someone to help carry your belongings.
After this, we went to our next hotel (which had incredible views of Lake Buyonyi) and enjoyed an amazing night.
I just want to take a moment to thank both Jackson and Edison from Bamboo Ecotours for giving us the best experience.

Clear and Supportive Feedback
We have booked the budget safari of 7 days with Super Eagles Travel as a couple. The communication with them over email and later on whatsapp was very clear - they have provided us with a brochure explaining in a lot of detail what each day would look like, including the list of accomodations. They were very supportive when their help was requested during the safari. We have been grouped with other people from other agencies, but it was an enjoyable experience as advertised by the Super Eagles.

Amazing safari experience
We booked a fly in/fly out private safari going from Zanzibar to Tanzania to visit two parks: Tarangire and Ngorongoro. The full experience was amazing from booking and pick up until drop of. Our game driver Filemon was amazing and provided interesting information about everything we saw. He also made sure we got to see all the animals and his knowledge was very good. The accommodation they provided was also high quality and an experience in itself. I highly recommend booking with Polecat Safari.

Lappet is our only choice
At that time, we compared many local agencies, and in the end, LAPPET's sincerity and practicality led us to choose them.
Firstly, Francisco's response was very timely. When he gave the quotation, he provided all the details, which made people feel good. And before we paid the deposit, he would confirm with all the hotels we chose if there were any available rooms, so we ended up staying at the hotels we wanted to stay at without changing hotels. This is really great!
Our guide Raphael is very experienced and professional! The driving was very stable and humorous, and we were very happy every day. On this trip to Tanzania, we saw the Big Five and a horned horse crossing the river. We were really lucky and worth it!
Raphael team gogogo！
