The best in Tanzania
5/5

I have used Alex’s services twice in Tanzania for a Kilimanjaro climb and a multi day safari. Not only did he save my husband’s life the first time due to altitude sickness by making the right call, but he led me to two successful summits bids through two different routes. His experience is unparalleled as a guide, a climber, and a chosen leader of the Kilimanjaro Climbers Association, an unpaid role picked by your peers.

I dont think I would do Africa or Tanzania any other way. If you want to be in safe hands and have the best experience in the country, this will be your best choice!

Review for a 9-Day Safari in Uganda with "Hooves of Africa" (Instagram: @hoovesofafrica_photosafaris) in December 2024

I had the immense pleasure of experiencing a 9-day safari in Uganda with the tour operator "Hooves of Africa" in December 2024, and I can confidently say it was one of the best trips of my and my husbands life.

From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. The team at Hooves of Africa, led by the incredibly dedicated and warm-hearted owner Dickson, took exceptional care of us. Dickson made sure we felt comfortable and well-supported at all times. His passion for the nature and wildlife of Uganda was palpable and only enriched our experience.

Our safari guide, Veronica Naka (Instagram: @veronica_naka), was an extraordinary personality. Her extensive knowledge of Uganda's flora and fauna, her enthusiasm, and her friendliness made each day an unforgettable experience. With her guidance, we enjoyed breathtaking encounters with chimpanzees, gorillas, and the rare golden monkeys as well as the big five and an incredible amount of wonderful birds. The chimpanzee tracking was magical, and the gorilla tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was an absolute highlight—it was a dream to be so close to these majestic creatures.

Visits to the Rhino Sanctuary and Murchison Falls were also unforgettable. The Murchison Falls are a true natural spectacle, and the wildlife viewing in the adjacent national park was simply spectacular. The Queen Elizabeth National Park also offered us impressive wildlife in an astonishing setting.

The entire trip was not just a safari in the traditional sense but a deep dive into the natural beauty and cultural diversity of Uganda. The accommodations were excellently chosen, and the meals were consistently delicious.

I can wholeheartedly recommend "Hooves of Africa" and the team, especially Dickson and Veronica. They made our safari experience truly special, and I am already looking forward to returning one day to explore the wonderful nature of Uganda again. If you are planning an unforgettable safari in Uganda, then you are in the right hands with "Hooves of Africa"!

More magical than I could ever have wished for
5/5

I honestly don't even know where to start with this review. I had a truly once in a lifetime experience during my 9 day adventure with Serengeti Clarity. Kelvin (our guide) was awesome - so knowledgable, so passionate, so entertaining (and had the best safari outfits you've seen). From the second we met Kelvin at the airport and saw the Jeep we'd be in, stocked with beers, water, snacks, safari sunhats, animal books and more to the moment he dropped us off to go home, we had the best time. We journeyed from Lake Manyara, to Tarangire, to Ngorongoro, to Serengeti - and every day brought something else that blew our minds. We were convinced each day that the next couldn't get better, and it always did! Kelvin was so so amazing at knowing where to find animals, seeing them extremely close up, often first to find things so we could enjoy the nature without other people there (which is particularly impressive). He organised delicious hot lunches for us every day and we loved sitting and chatting away with him getting to know all about Tanzania, the national parks and his own background. In terms of our animal leadership board - we averaged about 10 lions a day, 3 cheetahs a day, a leopard a day, more elephants and giraffes than you can count and incredibly, saw 3 of the incredibly rare black rhinos in Ngoro.

Frank was a truly wonderful organiser - we didn't have anything to worry about and he was so incredibly flexible when helping us organise our dream trip. He took into account everything we asked for and more - the lodges he organised for us, the food, everything was spectacular. He even did us a special painting to take home with us which we proudly have up on our wall! He also organised a really fun birthday event in the Serengeti which made it even more special.

I couldn't recommend Serengeti Clarity and Kelvin enough - we are already planning our next trip and we will 100% be using these guys!

Great Tour Guides
5/5

This was truly a trip of a lifetime and I'll remember it forever. I think your tour guide can make a good game drive amazing and our guide made ours amazing!
Wilson was incredibly knowledgeable of all the animals. For every animal we saw he had at least one factoid about the animal and had the answers to our questions about the animals. He was excited to share what he knows about the park, animals, and Maasai culture. He made the trip more enjoyable all around.
He also worked really hard to ensure we got to see as many animals as possible. We saw multiple lions, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes and buffalos. We also saw a Cheetah and a Leppard, which I understand to be fairly rare. I noticed that Wilson was really good at predicting where the animals would go so we would not only get one view of the animals but see them move as well.
He was also a great driver - I would make sure you have a land cruiser as the road themselves are pretty bumpy but Wilson did a great job navigating the bumpy roads.

Great Safari with Lions, Elephants, Giraffes and more!
5/5

Had a Great Safari with MoAfrika Tours. Everything, from the request, Communication and booking was effortless and convenient. Transfer from Pretoria to Pilanesberg was on time and the drivers were very friendly.
At the Safari we had the luck to have a very experienced guide who provided great knowledge.
I saw a lot of precious animals like lions, zebras, giraffes and elephants among many other interesting species.

Overall a great experience, well recommended.

Incredible Adventure and Exceptional Service!

This was an unforgettable experience and one we will treasure forever! Everything was perfectly organized, and our guide, Jonas, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. We were amazed by the wildlife, especially the breathtaking views of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Every moment was filled with wonder, from the seamless pickup to the heartfelt farewell at the end of the trip. Highly recommend this safari for anyone looking for a truly magical adventure!
