Reliable and friendly
The agency that accompanied us was reliable, friendly, and very communicative.
They regularly checked in with us to see if we had any questions or uncertainties.
They were extremely reliable, and we were thrilled with the entire process.
They took care of everything and more.
A huge thank you also goes to our guide, Rashid, who has over a decade of experience, which we benefited from. He accompanied us on our journey and was incredibly friendly and helpful.
He has a vast knowledge base and was always courteous and highly professional.

Spot on organisation
“The organization and the trip were arranged wonderfully. All the game drives were truly memorable thanks to our amazing guide Alex, who did his best to show us everything. This is definitely an agency we will travel with again.”
Patient and knowledgeable
Planning was very good with Gift from Meruslopes. He promptly answered all of our questions quickly either by text or telephone. He customized our trip to meet our needs, we were a group of three, grandparents and our 11 year old granddaughter! We were met at the airport and all of our transfers went very well.
Douglas was our safari guide. He has 18 years of experience and knowledge. The man knows all there is to know about the animals, fruits and vegetables and
flowers ! He was very pleasant and patient the entire trip, just amazing !
He worked well with his colleagues to help us find interesting events happening in the wild, he took lots of time watching a cheeta try to steal his prey back from a hyena, the hyena won ! Douglas made sure we had a great view to watch ! We also watched a huge herd of hippos in the river which was mesmerizing! Douglas was kind to let us stay there quite a while.
All of the sleeping arrangements were nice ! Good mattresses and lovely breakfast upon awakening. The various staff cannot be more accommodating and pleasant.. they all go out of their way to make you are happy.
In summary, I recommend Meruslopes for a safari in Africa ! They are very communicative and willing to go out of their way so you have a successful safari ! Douglas is a true gem with his many years of experience! Try to get with him if you can … he is a walking encyclopedia and a very pleasant one too !

A dream come true
We have just returned from an incredible photographic safari in Tanzania, and honestly, we couldn't have asked for a better experience.
From the very first contact, Athumani and the team at Kilimanjaro Unforgettable were fantastic. Communication was always clear, fast, and incredibly helpful. We felt well looked after throughout the entire planning process.
When our original flight was unexpectedly cancelled due to the conflict in the Gulf region, Athumani provided invaluable support in reorganizing the entire itinerary. His responsiveness and dedication turned what could have been a very stressful situation into a smooth and manageable adjustment.
Every aspect of the trip was perfectly arranged. The lodges and camps exceeded our expectations, offering comfort, excellent service, and wonderful locations immersed in nature. The domestic flight was flawlessly organized, making transfers easy and efficient.
As this was a photographic safari, we especially appreciated how every detail had been tailored to the needs of photographers. The safari vehicle was spacious, comfortable, and ideal for moving around with camera equipment, allowing us to make the most of every wildlife encounter.
The greatest added value of our journey, however, was our guide, Gabriel. His knowledge, professionalism, and exceptional ability to spot wildlife made an enormous difference to our experience. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to capture countless memorable photographs and enjoy extraordinary sightings that we might otherwise have missed.
A special thank you to Athumani: if this trip was the realization of a dream, it is largely thanks to him.
We would recommend Kilimanjaro Unforgettable without hesitation to anyone looking for an authentic, perfectly organized, and unforgettable safari in Tanzania.

Amazing experience
We had an amazing Kenya safari experience and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The wildlife sightings, landscapes, and overall organization made it a truly memorable journey.
A special mention goes to our guide, Jackson, who was exceptionally well-behaved, professional, and cooperative throughout the safari. He was always punctual, knowledgeable, patient, and eager to ensure that we had the best possible experience. His ability to spot wildlife and share interesting information greatly enhanced our trip.
The only area that could use improvement is the Land Cruiser provided for the safari. While it served its purpose, the vehicle would benefit from some maintenance, particularly the seats and doors. Improving these aspects would make long game drives much more comfortable and further enhance the overall guest experience.
Overall, we had a wonderful safari and would gladly recommend this experience to others. Thank you to Jackson and the entire team for making our Kenya adventure so memorable.

We are a couple (M, 49; F, 38) who chose to go with Wagatil for its positive reviews and the itinerary. The trip was a dream from start to finish! Roland picked us up at our hotel in Kigali and for eight days he made sure we experienced the best of Uganda. Our itinerary included Golden Monkey trekking, Gorilla trekking, Game Drives in Queen Elizabeth, River cruise and Chimp trekking. The lodges we stayed in were beautiful and romantic. The beds were comfortable, the water was generally hot, and the food was delicious. It was a real privilege to connect with Roland over his passion for Uganda's fauna and flora, learning about the different animals and plant life (lots about banana trees!)
The Ebola outbreak was announced halfway through our trip and Roland and Wagatil took care to keep us up to date about how it might impact our trip (it didn't!). It was clear there is anxiety for Uganda's tourism industry and its workers (tour guides and hotel managers and staff) over what is expected to be many cancellations because of fear of the virus. Each person has to choose for themselves but we always felt very safe since the Uganda tourism circuit is far away from the epicenter of the virus (about 200 miles!).
It's hard to pick just a few stand out moments. Heading back to the lodge after the game drive, Roland stopped the car on the side of the road to point out a rare Leopard sighting -- it was such a chance encounter! At one of our lodges, an elephant sauntered up to the lobby. It was so cool to be so close to wildlife. And when we insisted on stopping by the side of the road for an authentic pork joint / Waragi gin experience, Roland happily obliged.
The Gorilla trekking was awe-inspiring and exhilarating. With the chimps, it was downpouring so much, but it created a unique experience, and we got some great shots and had some interesting interactions.
The whole trip was a dream. It's always a little nerve wracking to choose a tour operator sight unseen, but Wagatil was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend!
Rudzani did a great job driving and got us everywhere safely and on time.
Our two tour guides were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The museum boat ride was fun. The cave tour turned out to be an adventure. We learned why we were given hard hats.
Very flexible.
After another tour company set up the wrong pickup site, Rudzani met us and made sure we got back to our hotel after the tour.
