Overall, we were very happy with our experience.
Our experience was very good, Godfrey was an amazing guide, incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He took excellent care of us and went above and beyond in every respect. The accommodations and experiences that were chosen for us were perfect. We have just one issue regarding the suggestions for travel to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, which is a long and arduous drive from Entebbe. Before choosing the option to be driven as opposed to flying to a nearby airstrip we were told that the drive would take 8-9 hours including stop overs for lunch, photography and traffic. Our choice was to only stop for minimal rest breaks and traffic was light, (even in Kampala) it still took over 10 hours with roads being pretty rough not just for the last hour which we expected but pretty well the whole way. Had we known this in advance I think we would have chosen to fly. I want to confirm this was in no way was Godfrey's fault he drove very well, it is simply that the infrastructure does not allow for the journey to be any easier.

Best tour company in Uganda
We had an amazing trip to Murchison Falls National Park and honestly we had such a wonderful experience from start to finish. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process responses were quick, clear, and very professional, which made planning the trip stress-free and smooth.
The service during the tour was exceptional. The siyabonge team (Junior & Gerald) were friendly, organized, reliable, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. The guide (Gerald) was knowledgeable about the wildlife, culture, and history of the park, which made the experience even more memorable.
The tour itself was absolutely amazing from the game drives to seeing the powerful Murchison Falls up close and enjoying the boat cruise along the Nile. Everything was well coordinated and exceeded my expectations.
I also felt the trip was great value for money because the experience, transportation, accommodation arrangements, and customer care were all worth it. I would highly recommend Siyabonge to anyone planning to visit Uganda. Thanks guys

Perfect!
Although the roads were very bumpy and the weather swung between hot and cold, our guide Moloko tirelessly led us around in search of animals. Seeing the lions in the last half hour made us all very excited.

Incredible experience
We had an amazing safari stay! Our guide, Dickson, was incredible: very kind, professional, and always dedicated to giving us the best experience possible. He made a lot of effort to search for the animals and helped us see as many species as possible.
The JAMBO LODGE hotel is beautiful, with a wonderful setting and staff who are truly warm and welcoming 😍

Excellent service offered to me and my friends they exceeded my expectations
Holiday and beyond exceeded my expectations in terms of planning for our trip, they also arranged for an early check in for us and the hotel they recommended was beyond our dreams for the time we stayed in Watamu.
Thank you so much

Very well organised and well priced
The transfers between accommodation and Chobe were seamless. Guides go out of their way to assist and accommodate requests. Safari was truly worth it!

An absolute dream 7days safari
We booked a 7 day private tour for our family of 3 with our teenage son and it was easily the best trip we have ever taken. Right from our very first email the communication from the office team was incredible. They customized our itinerary perfectly so the daily driving times were manageable for a family and absolutely everything ran like clockwork from the moment we landed in Nairobi.
Every single park offered something unique. The Maasai Mara gave us unbelievable close up views of lions and cheetahs and Lake Nakuru was a massive highlight where we spotted both black and white rhinos. In Lake Naivasha the company organized a beautiful relaxing boat safari to see the hippos and birds which was a fantastic break from sitting in the truck. We finished up in Amboseli watching huge herds of elephants walk right past the spectacular clear backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro.
What really made this company stand out was our incredible guide. His driving was exceptionally safe which was peace of mind for us his knowledge of the wildlife was top tier and he went above and beyond every single day to ensure our family was comfortable. The 4x4 landcruiser was spotless spacious and perfect for taking photos.
If you want an expertly organized safe and deeply memorable family safari in Kenya do not hesitate to book with them. Truly outstanding service from start to finish
