We had an incredible experience!!
The safari lasted a day and a half 🤩 and we were assisted from the start with prompt and precise organization.
The first morning, they picked us up directly at the hotel where we were staying (about an hour and a half from Tarangire National Park). After a morning filled with animals and incredible landscapes, we stopped for lunch.
Lunch was organized by them with a complete take-out: rice, fried fish, vegetables, fruit juice, beer, and everything else we needed.
In the afternoon, the safari ended around 4:00 PM and they then accompanied us to the hotel where we would spend the night.
This was the only hotel we used an external organization (in the 10 days between Zanzibar and Tanzania), and I must say it was truly an incredible surprise to find such friendliness and professionalism in the accommodation.
After showering, we watched an acrobatic and dance show performed by four local guys: it was a beautiful moment, thanks also to the view of Lake Manyara.
Dinner was included in the price and was excellent.
The next morning we left at 6:00, and the entire morning was filled with lions, hippos, zebras, and countless other animals, in truly surreal situations.
I can say they didn't miss a beat, and for that they deserve all 5 stars.
A special thanks to our guide Faustin Paulo (a local guy who speaks Italian) and our driver Dickson, who, thanks to their experience, took us to places only true experts know and taught us information about the animals that will remain etched in our memories of this trip. 🧳

Perfect safari
"I felt in good hands with African Big Cats Safari from the start. They were very attentive to my needs, and our guide, Lavoy, was amazing throughout the entire trip. He was so knowledgeable and sharp at spotting animals—we saw more than I ever expected! Even though this was our third safari, it was easily the best one yet. We did a 5-night mid-range tour with two nights camping in the Serengeti, which was a fantastic experience. Highly recommended by the whole family!

Goes above and beyond
I had the most amazing time in Ethiopia with Peerless. Our guide Mulu and our driver Dave went above and beyond. My friend and I felt very well looked after at all times. We had once in a lifetime experiences, meeting tribes and learning about their culture and history. A highlight for me was seeing the hippos!!!! I would recommend this tour and this tour company to everyone!!!

Eric Ringani, the guide, made climbing Mt. Kenya a fantastic experience!
If you book a climb with this company, ask specifically for Eric Ringani as a guide. The company’s communication wasn’t great, but, if you have Eric as a guide you will have a safe, enjoyable, informative and fulfilling climb. We did Mt. Kenya: in with Sirimon - out with Chogoria. Amazing!

Unforgettable experience in Lalibela
I highly recommend Dan as a guide for visiting Lalibela! My partner and I spent three days exploring this incredible place with him, and it was an unforgettable experience.
From the moment we met him, we felt completely safe and well-cared for. Since Dan lives locally and knows the terrain inside out, his expertise was evident in every step of our journey. His professionalism shone through in the way he naturally adjusted his pace to match ours, making even the hike up the mountain feel pleasant despite the altitude.
He guided us through the fascinating tunnels that connect the different churches and shared his deep knowledge of the site at every turn. What made the experience truly special, however, was his personal connection to Lalibela. Learning that one of his relatives is actually a priest at one of the incredible rock-hewn churches added a unique and emotional layer to our visit. An unforgettable experience!

Excellent, Aslam went out of his way to make sure we saw as many animals as possible
Aslam is an excellent driver and spotted animals we would not have seen. Aslam also was very good at explaining what the animals were as well as the country's history. I would highly recommend him.

A brilliant nine day safari with an exceptional guide
I have just returned from a fantastic 9-day tour of Uganda with Home To Africa. It was a very enjoyable and productive trip - thanks, especially, to my outstanding guide Karim.
I’m a photographer and have made around 20 wildlife or journalism-focused trips to Africa over the years, including a previous visit to Uganda. My focuses this time were chimps at Kibale, gorillas at Bwindi and mongoose tracking at Mweya (that last one being a bit niche). But we covered a lot more than just this, and the spectacular landscapes alone make Uganda a very compelling photographic destination.
I was travelling by myself, and Karim made the trip so much better by not only being an excellent and very safe driver and a sharp-eyed and very knowledgeable guide, but also by being such a pleasure to travel with. The drives in Uganda are long, so to spend that time with someone who is so nice, so interesting and such a great conversationalist makes a big difference.
I was also grateful for his unfailing punctuality. Early morning light is critical to photography, and he understood that well. He always beat me to breakfast, and we always got to the various park gates before they opened. He also has a well-attuned eye for what makes a good photo and made lots of very helpful suggestions. It really felt like we were working as a team, and I really appreciated that.
The accommodation was all excellent, but I would particularly single out Haven Lodge Buhoma Community at Bwindi. The views from the restaurant terrace looking over the forested slopes are exceptional - and they were just as good from the (very private) terrace of my room. I already miss the view, the tranquility and the sounds of the forest!
It was an exceptional trip and I can recommend Karim and Home to Africa very highly indeed.
