Very enjoyable safari
We were very impressed. Communication with the Company was easy and quick. The organization of the whole trip was good. If I have to say what I did not like was that the Company provided tents which were not waterproof, which meants that both nights it was wet from inside. Our Driver could have said more Information about the parks, animals, etc. He actually said just a few things and then he was silent and answered just the questions which we had.
Apart from These things we enjoyed the Safari and would recommend it. It was worth paying the Money.

Tour package was great and safari/hotels were awesome - problem with air travel
Hotels and Safari tours were top - air travel was a problem with airline cancelling flight 10 days before departure

Our helpful and safe escort during our holiday!
We were very warm welcomed at the airport of Entebbe from our friendly tour guide Richard. During our journey through Uganda we felt that we are in good hands. Everything was very well organised and and we enjoyed every day in this beautiful country. We made gorilla trekking which was an highlight for us and an experience which we will definetly never forget! The boat cruise on the Kazinga channel is also a must to do. Our accommodations were really great and we enjoyed every day a great dinner with typical Ugandian dishes. We loved the fresh fish Tilapia from the lake Victoria and of course we could not get enough of Avocados and sweet potatoes, which is really hard to get in Europe !
All in all we were really satisfied and we can really recommend Adventure Vacation Safaris!

Excellent communication and organization and a very good tour which exceeded our expectations
Our driver, Jason, was very professional, efficient and knowledgeable as well as being a good driver. He taught us a lot about local things in Rwanda and Uganda. The tented camp and gorilla trekking as well as the village tour were outstanding and the staff were very kind and helpful. All was very well done.

Smooth sailing all through
Yoga in the wild group tour was surprisingly good. I joined this tor because I love yoga and the added twist of the wild. My group was interesting and the yoga instructor very friendly. We did Yoga twice everyday. Faith was very interactive and helpful through the whole booking process. I will be travelling again with them soon

Awesome world
First of all, I’d like to appreciate to David who is our driver. Thanks to him, we enjoyed our safe trip. And staff and leader of this company is also nice guys:)
I traveled at Masai Mara National Reserve, lake Nakuru and Amboseli National park. I’ve never seen such a awesome world ever. A lot of nature, animals!!
We could have nice experience there. Thank you all:)

Great experience but you can probably get better value for money
I went with a friend to a 4-day budget safari which included 3 visits at Masai Mara reserve and one at Lake Nakuru. The price included pick up and drop off from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the safari and back to the hotel and to the airport, which was great. The car was a bit run down and we were sharing with 4 other people. At Masai Mara we stayed in pre-pitched tents with private toilet/shower at Miti Mingi Eco Camp, which was okay but there were no hot showers as advertised; we had an issue with rain in our tent and we were promptly changed to another one. At Nakuru we stayed in at City Max hotel, which was quite in the middle of nowhere and the wifi signal did not reach the rooms, but it did the job. Our driver Richard was very knowledgeable and could virtually answer every single question we asked him. He found all the animals almost on the first day and we ended up seeing everything we wanted to see. Unfortunately, the weather was not with us so on the 3rd day, the driver suggested to skip the 3rd visit at Masai Mara and stop at Lake Naivasha to do an activity at an extra cost, which we refused to but agreed to stop there for a walk; however, when we got there he advised that the weather was not good enough and we drove straight into the hotel without actually doing anything at all, other than driving, which was a bit of a waste of a day; a back-up plan would have been appreciated. My friend and I finished our safari earlier than some other people in our group and were put in a different car to go back to Nairobi. There, we learnt that the people from that other car had paid less for the same type safari (with a different operator), done more things (the activity at Lake Naivasha that was offered at extra cost was offered for free to them) and had a much better car so it annoyed us a bit but that's life.
In short, I had a great time in this safari and I saw all the animals I wanted to which was amazing but if I were to do another safari I would probably do a bit more of research and negotiate the price better.

Unforgettable experience of true bush life in Botwana with wonderful and knowledgeable staff
Unbelievable experience of true bush life in Botswana! Philimon is so knowledgeable. He as well as his support staff go out of their way to make everything special and nothing is too much trouble. Joe, the chef, whipped up delicious meals and we did not go hungry once. Philimon also took my son fishing in the Delta. There is just nothing like a mekoro ride while the sun is setting over the Delta. We learned so much about the bush in Bots and ticked off a bucket list-experience!
