Makario provided First Class Service, even surpassing my expectations!
Let me start by saying that Makario Safaris contact person, M/S Mwaka , was very helpful and provided service beyond expectations.
Any emails, calls and messages were responded to timeously, without delay, and the responses were relevant to my queries. Any time I was told that they would revert, this would happen in a timeous way.
Makario are very knowledgeable in the offerings in Rwanda, the Great Lakes region as well as East Africa.They will make you feel "at home", away from home.
Our holiday was fantastic, memorable and well coordinated and I will not hesitate to recommend anyone travelling to Rwanda and the Great Lakes region to use Makario Safaris for their bookings and travel.

This was an excellent tour, experienced guides, very affordable price and great accommodations
Communications - Very responsive communications, contactable by email, phone and whatsapp.
Service - Excellent service, collection to and from the hotel.
Living up to Expectations - The whole experience definitely lived up to expectations.
Safari Tour itself - was excellent. Saw 4 of the big 5. Hundreds if not thousands of animals living together in one place. Was a truly amazing experience.

Everything well Organized and Executed
Booking a trip to Africa is a daunting task with 100's of tour providers offering all sorts of tours and expeditions. George and his team ensured that all the details of our trip were planned perfectly, from the time we landed, we had a smiling face to welcome us and bring us to the hotel.
The vehicle was an African Limousine (Land Cruiser Safari Stretch), brand new with all the right modifications to ensure our safaris were perfect.
Ken, was extremely nice, great personality, very knowledgeable and insightful. No animal or small gesture was missed on his part. Around the craziness of drivers in Africa, Bob drove very respectfully, and NEVER spoke/texted on his phone while driving. I would ask for Ken the next time I come to Kenya.
In Tanzania we had the best 4x4 driver, Salim, he also noticed every animal and sight to see. We crossed rivers, mud bogs, and unbelievable terrains with calm and ease. Very much appreciated as we saw several trucks on their side during river crossings.
We arrived very early for our flight to Zanzibar, flight was good. In Zanzibar, I recommend upgrading to the Ocean Front Villa (nothing wrong with the villa given) . but for very little $$ you get a great view with a great room. All meals were included, very nice spread with something for anyone. If you don't like buffets, you choose the a la carte restaurant which is very inexpensive. We extended our trip for two days and went to Stone Town. Very much worth the time and small upgrade. Stone Town is filled with history that is so very important to learn, and we were only 10 minutes to the airport the next day.
Great Experience! Thank you George, Ken and Salim.

Excellent experience
Excellent experience with Kileo Tours, it was a very good choice. From the first moment cared about us, comfortable car only for us, very good food and plenty to eat until saying enough, and the very good guide, gave everything because we had the opportunity to see everything we wanted to see.
If I have the opportunity to come back sometime, I would definitely hire them again.

Nice and very good experience with sunup Adventures
Communication with sunup was very good and fast . Chris was all the Time friendly and tried to make our Trip as pleasant as possible.
He was very cooperative and flexible even as we had to postpone our Safari tour by one week and switched pick up and drop off location. Everything worked out very well. Thanks again !!
The only thing I can say is, that he could have Pointed out more clearly the long distances between each park. We felt spending more time in the car traveling then being on safari.
Our safari was awesome. This is also because of our guide/driver .
Our guide Surat was great !! All the time friendly and a very good driver . He made our Safari tour special - thank you very much again!! We enjoyed it so much .
Also the car was very good- we chose 4x4 land cruiser and were happy about our decision. Especially due to the long journey the car was the best choice as it was very comfortable and we had enough space ( 3 people and driver)
Regarding accommodations and parks - we did a 5 day safari to amboseli, naivasha and masai Mara. Besides the accommodation and food in Masai Mara everything was really great. From my point of view the accommodation and food in Masai Mara is not worth the money and you can’t compare this camp with the other two. We spend two nights in Enkorok Mara Camp.
Nonetheless we enjoyed the safari !!
The Safari in naivasha was disappointing. We enjoyed our camp / accommodation- this was so great !! - but I would not say that naivasha is “safari”. The boat trip was really boring (ok, we also had bad luck with the weather as it was cold and raining at that day) and I don’t think that such a trip is expensive and the walking tour ... mhh... it was more a zoo walking tour .this was disappointing as we were really curious and were looking forward to this walking tour.
But, the guide there was very friendly and he explained us many things about the animals . This was really interesting !! He made the best out of this waking tour. Thank you!
All in all we enjoyed the trip very much and can recommend sunup adventures !!!

Murchison National Park
I travel with a group of interns to Uganda once a year for medical work in the north of the country. For the third consecutive year, Prime Safari took care of our moments of relaxation with brilliance and professionalism.
First for a weekend at Murchison Park. Transport, accommodation and meals. Everything was faultless, on time, polite and above all, with no bad surprise. Conscientious drivers / guides who know the secrets of the fauna and know how to locate it out with respect.
The day before our departure, we also appreciate tourist support in the city of Kampala. Professional transport in traffic that is not always convenient. Suggestions of attractions and restaurants that respect our pace of discovery.
So far, no false note for this agency retained 3 times

Trip to remember for life
We would love to thank Saso Uganda Safaris as we had a great safari experience, on a high professional level. Wilson is always nice and ready to satisfy your desires. Very important: the email communication was fast and he gets always back to you shortly. Dona was the perfect guide, always on time, with an high level of experience, the jeep was big enough to move, standing up and taking pictures, and all lodges and hotels we slept in were cozy and fascinating. I highly recommend saso for your next Ugandan tour.
