Combines unforgettable Big 5 safaris with some of the world's most spectacular panoramic landscapes.
This was my first trip to South Africa. It was extremely successful and delivered exactly what I was hoping for from a safari. I saw all of the Big 5 and a wide variety of other wildlife. The guides impressed me with their knowledge of both animals and plants and their remarkable ability to locate wildlife. The ability to leave the roads and track animals in a private reserve was a major advantage over a national park-only experience. I enjoyed additional excursions to the Kruger National Park and the spectacular Panoramic Route, giving me both wildlife and scenery. The lodge itself was peaceful, intimate and uncrowded. I particularly appreciated watching wildlife from the lodge veranda while relaxing between activities. The food, staff and overall hospitality exceeded expectations.

Excellent
I was apart of 5 21 year old girls who booked the 2 day and 1 night safari in Tsavo East national park. When I say it was the best two days of my time in Kenya I am not exaggerating. From the minute Herbert picked us up to the second he dropped us off, he made sure we were provided with everything we needed and made us feel so comfortable. As we are a group of young girls we were worried we wouldn’t feel safe, but we really shouldn’t have been worried as Herbert is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He was so knowledgeable and answered all of our questions! For our night stay we stayed at Voi Wildlife Lodge and when we got there we were amazed by how nice it was. The whole weekend was such great value for money, and we honestly had the best time. I would recommend Black Santa Safaris to anyone who wants the most amazing experience

Adventure of a Lifetime
We took our niece on her graduation trip to Uganda, so we could trek with the gorillas and chimpanzees. We specifically chose Eco Adventure Safaris for their ratings and itinerary. Were there hiccups? Of course, it is Africa. But their staff, especially our guide, Silas, quickly pivoted and immediately came up with alternative solutions. The amount of wildlife we saw was amazing (thanks to Silas' expert spotting). Silas took fantastic care of us; we met as strangers and left family. We were so blessed to have him as our guide. We've been to Africa 4 times previously, and Uganda is very special. Not only are Uganda's scenery and national parks beautiful, but the people are so gracious, welcoming, and friendly. We will definitely be back!

Amazing gorilla trek made great family memories!
Emile was helpful and responsive as we planned this once in a lifetime adventure. We chose Lion based on that and what previous travelers shared about their experience with this tour operator. Joel, our guide, was a great fit for the three young adults in our group. We appreciated his positive energy and his knowledge of Rwanda’s history, culture, and wildlife, particularly on safari in Akagera National Park.

A dream come true thanks to the professionalism of 1001 pattes !
The most extraordinary experience of our lives! A huge thank you to the 1001 Pattes team for organizing our honeymoon. We had an incredible week in the heart of Tanzania's national parks. A massive thank you to Omar, our guide, who took such good care of us throughout the trip. A true expert on the local flora and fauna, he show us all kinds of landscapes and animals! From herbivores like giraffes, zebras, and elephants to the most charismatic animals: a lioness and her cubs, two lions by a river, a cheetah with her cubs, and even a leopard with a hunting trophy, all right in front of our car, away from the other tourists!
The accommodations were also of very high quality and located in the heart of the parks. We even saw zebras outside our window one morning

Best Adventure Ever
I can’t say enough positive things about this company and what they provided for our group. They were willing to go to the nth degree to ensure we were happy, safe and got to experience everything that we could ever want.The guides were very well informed extremely helpful and always up for a good laugh. we spent three weeks in Tanzania and another week in Uganda. They’re planning for getting us from place to place was without a hitch. I never thought I’d see so many animals! They knew where to take us and I have never been on a better vacation in my lifetime. Elephants, giraffes, wildebeest, cheetahs, leopards, flamingos, birds galore, monkeys, hyenas, jackals, zebras, hippos, rhinos, gorillas, and more! You name it we saw it! When we were in the middle of the Serengeti, the soles of my shoes started coming off. Brian (the owner of the company) said no problem, and somehow got my shoes to a cobbler hours away and return to me the next day with brand new soles for just a few dollars. We were also given the opportunity to experience different tribal cultures, which was very inspiring! If you’re thinking of going on a Safari, I have the highest recommendations for Ecological Wilderness Adventures! This group is the best of the best! I miss you Amiri! - Lynne
