Great Safari – great Guide
I think we were very lucky choosing Big Cats Safari. We had a really great guide. Why? A lot of operators name it „guide“ but they are just drivers. Our guide has really great knowledge of animals and flora. Could explain dependencies. And – we don’t know how – he was always in the best position with our jeep to see/meet the animals. Spotted cheetah were others just saw gras. He made this Safari for my whole family a really memorable experience! Thank you Festo – 12 of possible 10 points!
The organization was perfect for us: 1,5 days Tarangire, 2 days Serengeti, 1 day Ngorongoro and 0,5 days Manyara. Pls be ready to meet really bumpy roads for lots of kilometers (ist even for the passengeres tiring). You should be aware – early bird catches the biggest worm 😉 - we got up at 5 AM, leaving the lodge latest at 6.30 AM but it was worth it. The lodges organized by Big Cats Safari were exact what we like – very clean, safe, but not overacting. Espacially happy with the „..tented lodges“ (Burunge and 2x Embalakai); warm and friendly, food was fine and the price for drinks in our opinion more than fair. You can’t be nearer to wildlife – a Giraffe, an Elephant 3 meter next to your terrasse in the night/morning is overwhelming.
Of course in some lodges you can find room for (minor) improvements and „the better is the enemy of the good“ but nothing to complain.
All in all a perfect trip – Thank you

Great experience with minor improvement
I recently completed a 5-day trek up Mount Kenya with Dennsland, and overall, it was a beautiful and memorable adventure.
Pros
• Very quick, detailed pre trek communication by Purity.
• My guide, Ben, was kind, patient, and encouraging throughout. The rest of the support team was equally great.
• Absolutely stunning landscapes and a truly rewarding summit experience. Reaching the top just after sunrise was unforgettable.
Cons
• When I arrived at the first camp, I discovered I was the only one sleeping in a tent while everyone else stayed in huts. I hadn’t been told this was an option beforehand. It was quite cold that night, so I requested to stay in huts for the rest of the trek — which was arranged, though at an additional cost. I’m glad I made the change, as it rained every day and camping would have been much less comfortable.
• There was a small disconnect between the trek team and the company, but it didn’t significantly affect the experience.
Although I went solo, Ben’s support made it enjoyable and safe. The final push to the summit was challenging but achievable, and the rest of the route felt moderate. I was also lucky to avoid any altitude sickness.
The trek effectively ends on Day 4 after reaching the summit, with Day 5 dedicated to the return journey to Nairobi.
I’d definitely recommend Dennsland for a Mount Kenya trek, just be sure to clarify your accommodation preferences in advance!

Very efficient and client oriented
Wild Uganda does its best to satisfy its customers providing the best guide.
The guide was excellent and always available. He didn’t stop until we found not only the the Big Five, but also the Five Ugly 😉
We can highly recommend Wild Uganda.
