9-days Safari in Uganda
Our guide and driver, Julius, gave us an outstanding experience in Uganda, doing everything possible to maximize our chances of seeing wildlife and making each moment of the journey worthwhile. We had nine days, supposedly during the wet season, and set out to see as much wildlife as possible in its natural environment. Remarkably, the rain always seemed to fall when we were indoors or safely in the van, as if perfectly timed for our itinerary. The animals were far from shy—apart from the elusive leopard—and we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the wild, bringing home unforgettable memories and stunning photographs.
Despite unexpected challenges with our vehicles—both suffering engine failures—Julius remained calm, resourceful, and fully committed to our safety and schedule. He handled every situation with professionalism and determination, ensuring that our trip continued as smoothly as possible. We had a great time with fantastic excursions, all perfectly organized, and we are truly grateful for Julius’s dedication and care throughout this incredible adventure.

Vacation Saved
My wife and I visited Kenya last year to spend three weeks on the ground, traveling from Nairobi, Mombasa, Naivasha and other places in central Kenya.
Our first flight from California was delayed almost two hours, putting us behind for our first connection in Seattle Washington. My wife and I made the flight but our luggage did not. Lillian our travel consultant, helped us with multiple reservations so we could move to another spot every few days, so finding our bags quickly was imperative. Lillian was in constant communication with the airline and managed to retrieve our bags and deliver to us before we moved to our second location. If not for her efforts, our trip could have been a stressful experience. Lillian was always available to help with car rentals and hotel negotiations no matter the time or place. I highly recommend Lillian and Ruby Voyages! Our once in a lifetime vacation was saved by their efforts.

From the moment they picked me up to the final drop-off, every detail was perfect.
I had an amazing experience with Zambezi Expedition Travel and Tours. From the initial communication to the final drop-off, everything was handled professionally and efficiently.
The team was friendly, reliable, and ensured that every detail of the trip was well organized. The accommodation they arranged was comfortable and exceeded my expectations, and the tours were absolutely beautiful and memorable.
The team was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive—they constantly made sure we were comfortable during the rides and at every place we visited, which made the whole journey stress-free and enjoyable. Every part of the tour was well organized. We had a wonderful time exploring Victoria Falls, and every experience—from the delicious food to the game drive and the boat cruise—was absolutely unforgettable.
I truly felt that the experience was great value for money, and I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a visit to Victoria Falls.
Thank you once again Zambezi Expedition Travel and Tours for the welcome experience.

Our driver Francis was amazing!
Everything was wonderful. The guides were very knowledgeable about the animals, history and the everyday lives of the Kenyan people. They especially made sure we had all of our luggage and plenty of bathroom breaks. The ONLY negative was an itinerary a bit too full. Would have definitely dropped the one night stay that took 11 hours of driving to get to! I would’ve preferred more time at Amboseli or Nakuru. If Google Maps says it takes 5 hours to get from one park to another, add 3 hours to that. No fault of any one person, just how driving through Kenyan countryside really works.

Excellent. Perfect advices, good listeners and they combine that in a perfect trip and holiday.
From the first moment I felt that no question was too much. Arusha travel understands that of course you want the best value for your money and that you want the best trip ever. And they arrange that!! All questions can be asked, all kind of different routes can be discussed, all type of hotels can be chosen. They’re great! Give them a call and start your journey with Arusha.

Unforgettable — seamless, reliable, easygoing, transparent
Soul of Tanzania and our guide Michael organized an unforgettable 7 day 6 night safari for my partner and me. We had an incredible experience exploring Serengeti, Ngorongoro, a glimpse of Manyara, and Tarangire. Michael was knowledgeable, responsible, and easy going, a natural travel partner and pilot who made us feel safe and well cared for across the whole trip - an excellent guide. He and the tour company were both very flexible which we appreciated and allowed the whole trip to still feel like vacation (as people who typically spend holidays sleeping in and exploring spontaneously on the fly rather than planning ahead and having a tight itinerary) — we were glad to have downtime to relax when needed. We also particularly appreciated Soul of Tanzania’s transparency with pricing and options for customization (i.e., choosing lodge at each destination at our preferred amenity/price points, and mix and matching). This stood out from other companies and ultimately brought us to choose Soul of Tanzania (in addition to their clearly strong track record). Would recommend to others!!
