The Trip with Gama Travel and tour agency was professional, excellent than what we expected
Our family of six—my wife Yvette, our four children aged 14, 12, 8,
and 4, and myself—had an incredible experience visiting Akagera
National Park with Gama Travel and Tour Agency.
As a Rwandan family, we were amazed by how professionally Gama Travel
handled our family safari. From the planning and communication to the
transportation and guidance, everything was organized with our
children’s comfort and safety in mind.
What made the experience especially enjoyable was traveling in a
comfortable open-roof safari vehicle. It gave all of us, including our
youngest child, a wonderful opportunity to see the landscapes and
wildlife clearly and enjoy the experience together as a family.
Akagera was absolutely beautiful. Our children were excited to see
wildlife in the park and were amazed by the experience of seeing
animals in their natural environment. Watching their excitement made
the safari even more special for us as parents.
Our children especially enjoyed seeing the elephants, giraffes,
zebras, antelopes, hippos, buffaloes, monkeys, birds, and other
wildlife. The safari also gave them an opportunity to learn about
nature and Rwanda’s wildlife outside the classroom.
One thing we particularly appreciated is that Akagera National Park is
a wonderful family-friendly destination in Rwanda, allowing families
with children to enjoy a genuine safari experience together. For us,
it was a perfect opportunity to introduce our children to the beauty
and importance of Rwanda’s natural heritage.
Our children even wanted to write their own thoughts about the experience:
14-year-old: “I really enjoyed the safari because I saw animals that
I had only seen in books and on television. Seeing them in the park
was completely different and exciting.
12-year-old: “My favorite part was seeing the animals from the safari
terms like the difference between ice land and peninsula while observing them . I loved being able to look around and see everything, I felt connected to the environment and the guider explained us some geographic terms”
8-year-old: “I loved the animals, especially the giraffes and zebras.
I want to go on safari again!”
4-year-old: “I liked the animals! I saw them with Daddy and Mummy. I
want to come gain to see lions and giraffes!
As parents, seeing all four children enjoying the same experience
together was the greatest reward and a good holiday memories which they will share with their friends when they will be back to school.
We sincerely thank Gama Travel and Tour Agency for giving our family
such a wonderful experience. They understood that traveling with four
children requires extra care and patience, and they handled everything
exceptionally well.
We sincerely recommend Gama Travel to families looking for a safe,
enjoyable, educational, and memorable safari experience in Rwanda.
Akagera is beautiful and experiencing it together as a family made it
even more special.

Mara Triangle Safaris was the perfect choice for our trip
We had an absolutely wonderful safari experience! Our driver, Charlie, was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive throughout the entire trip. We saw an incredible variety of animals, and Charlie made sure we always felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of every step of the way.
Philomena was also a pleasure to work with. She made the scheduling and coordination easy and seamless, which allowed us to simply relax and enjoy the experience.
From the planning to the safari itself, everything was handled beautifully. We came away with amazing memories and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Gorillas and much much more!
We have recently returned home from the most amazing 3 week trip to Africa. A week of this was spent with Wild Uganda!
I contacted Wild Uganda via Safari bookings as had a dream of visiting the Gorillas at Bwindi.
From first contact, Ernest was the most amazing communicator. My many questions! Nothing was a problem.
Brian, our drive! Most fantastic host. His communication, stories, knowledge and now friend for life.
Our group of 6 went to see the gorillas, but Rwanda and Uganda was soooo much more. The beauty and the people! Memories for life!
Thanks Ernest and Brian for the memories!

A wonderful experience, great organization
We booked the last-minute four-day safari to visit Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Conservation Areas. We immediately received a warm welcome from Happy and his colleagues, who guided us throughout our journey. Besides being an excellent driver, our guide, Healthy, was very knowledgeable and skilled at answering our questions about ethology and the area, and he engaged us by inviting us to participate in interactive games. The meals served during the safari were excellent, as were the accommodations at the two lodges and the campsite (the bathrooms at the campsite could be improved).

An unforgettable safari with an excellent team and perfect organisation
My friends and I chose this company for our very first safari, and we couldn’t have made a better choice. We booked a 7-day budget safari and were lucky enough to have Ebby as our driver and David as our cook. They were both incredibly prepared, punctual, professional, and always willing to help and accommodate our requests.
For a budget safari, it was everything we could have asked for and more. The nights in the tents were not the most comfortable, but honestly, they ended up being one of the highlights of the whole trip. Sleeping in the middle of the wilderness and hearing the sounds of the animals around us was an unforgettable experience.
Ebby was an amazing driver and guide. He knew how to navigate the rough roads perfectly and always seemed to know where to go for the best wildlife sightings. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and their behavior, and he was patient and determined to give us the best possible experience. Thanks to him, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five!
David was also fantastic. He prepared delicious meals for us every day, even in the middle of the parks, and was always friendly and helpful.
The safari was an incredible experience, and we have so many unforgettable memories from these days. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking for an amazing safari experience in Tanzania, especially if you are looking for a great balance between price and quality.
A huge thank you to Ebby and David for making our first safari so special! We will never forget it. 🐘🦁🦒🐆🐃🦛🦏

Great migration is greater with Lenchada!
Before planning our trip to Kenya, we got in touch with over 12 tour operators for the Maasai Mara safari.
Amongst these Lenchada was the second cheapest option for a 5 day safari.
We were in touch with Collins L, who was super responsive day-night-weekday-weekend.
Collins helped us tailor a safari based exactly on our dates and requirements.
He only ask for a nominal fee to confirm the booking, and the rest of the amount is paid just before departure.
On the day of the departure, Collins handed us over to Julius.
Julius was our safari guide who has been in the business for over 2 decades.
I had my doubts on the first day of the game drive as Julius did not stop where dozens of jeeps stood, to watch a lion.
He instead continued driving further and took us to a spot with 2 lions!
That's when I knew to blindly trust Julius!
Over the next 5 days we saw hippos, giraffes, elephants, lionesses, wildebeests, cheetahs, leopards and rhinos! Julius just doesn't miss!
Julius has many stories about learning the skill from his father, meeting tourists from all over the world and how his children are doing well at school. He is a positive man and it is refreshing to hear personal stories that are not just about hardships and struggles.
You can even request for Julius at the time of booking your safari. Those who have experience with safaris know that the chances of spotting animals is directly correlated to your guide's expertise!
We had a great safari and I assure you that if you are in the hands of Collins L and Julius, you are set to have the time of your life!
