Nice wildlife adventure in Africa
Last September with Karumuna Safari we have wonderful week in Uganda. This was my first trip to Africa and expectations was fulfilled completely. First, although not traveling together earlier the group was surprisingly very solid and, second, our local guides from Karumuna Safaris (led by Richard Kesembo) who organized this trip were very good. In 9 days, I can say we saw a lot and have no objections that Winston Churchill named Uganda as the Pearl of Africa early last century. Staring from Mabamba swamp on Victoria lake, after crossing equator, visiting Kidepo Valley and Murchison Falls National Parks as well as managing boat tour by Victoria Nile to Murchison Falls and finally - a Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. What more you can expect from so short visit to Uganda? It was a real nature adventure I was dreaming from childhood when was reading books about savanna wildlife. We saw lots of animals, including 4 of the big Five-excluding lions although Karamuna guys even additionally perform a night game trip in Murchison Falls National Park. But probably it was not our day this time. So, something should be left for next time.
What surprised me, was a nice and welcoming people in Uganda. Believe me. I have been in very many remote places and in very many countries (so far only in Northern hemisphere), but here I feel very comfortable and relaxed in contacting people. By the way, in Kidepo was also possibility to see the “untouched” or real Africa where tourists are very seldom. This was something what is difficult to imagine here in Europe and I was amazed that people can live in such harmony with nature without services that are in our everyday life.
During travel in most remote site - Kidepo, extraordinary accident happens. It is hardly to imagine how we could get out from situation, but the guys helped very much to sort it out, make necessary local arrangements, adjust the travel schedule and even assisted it after we already return back at home.
Finally, if you asked me about the travel how it was organized, I would say “very good”. But if you asked me about if something goes wrong during travel (like our group experienced and can happens with you anywhere in the world), when in such situations I should say – “perfect”. This company can manage everything in drastic or critical situation where travelers could be confused, helpless and could not see the way out. I am fully trusting these guys and if I will decide to come back to Uganda next time, only the Karumuna Safaris will be my choice. Thanks a lot for the nice time!
So, if you are planning to go on safari in Uganda, do recommend you Karumuna Safaris as they are excellent nature guides, and can assist you to solve any problem or your wish.

Awesome Game Drives
Communication from Europe worked pretty well and all questions were immediately answered by the company. The game drives are stunning and a unique experience. Depending on the driver u get a lot of information about the animals. Tents are good and food is fresh. Everybody is very helpful. We really recommend a safar with Royal Tiger Tours.

Wonderfull safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro!
We booked a safari from a Dutch partner organisation. From the moment of arriving on Arusha airport until we left to Zanzibar, everything was perfectly arranged. The first night we stayed in a hotel (arranged by Meru slopes) in Arusha and the next morning they picked us up to start the safari. The five of us travelled in a comfortable, clean car and we all had a seat by the window. The guide and the cook were both really friendly and the food was really good. The guide was able to tell us a lot about the different animals and he knows where to find the good spots to see the animals. We visited Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro. We had a really good and I recommend everyone to book with Meru Slopes.

It was fantastic
After a good trip to Tanzania, we are back home. We think back to a great 15 days. For the second time Makasa Tanzania Safaris took care of our trip to the Serengeti, Ndutu, Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater. The Makasa guide made a fantastic trip with a real Africa feeling.
Spotted more than 70 species of birds and met many elefants, lions cheetah, leopard en serval. We have been able to take a lot of beautiful pictures. The atmospheric camps in Ndutu, Tarangire and the overnight stay at the Maasai were great.
If we will make another trip to Tanzania , we will defenitely choose Makasa.
Thank Selma, Ngomi, Fien and Ali for their great commitment.

Great organization for our trip to Namibia
A dream came trough when we travelled in Namibia for 3 weeks. The communication with NIT was very easy and fast and within a short time all our Lodges were booked. The route and Lodges they recommended were above our expectations, the tour description excellent!
Everything was well organized for the whole trip and all we had to do was relax and enjoy our trip. I can recommend NIT to everyone who thinks about to visit these beautiful country.

absolutely reliable and flexible
We booked a self-drive safari. Namibia Individual Travel considered all our extra requests. Special wishes regarding the rented vehicles as well as all reservations for special events were fulfilled perfectly. Namibia Travel organizes for our 9-person group a perfect travel experience in Namibia.
I remember Namibia Individual Travel as friendly, reliable, inexpensive and competent. I would always travel with Namibia individual Travel again.

Magda has put together our journey in such a way that all our wishes are met!
We had a very good guide, Radjabu, with which the communication was super! He knows a lot about wildlife and nature, in which we are optimally interested. He also has a lot of humor and that made it even more fun.
We have had a very varied journey, full of surprises, both in terms of wildlife, the locations, camping etc.
As icing on the cake and also the conclusion of our trip, the Maasai-Lodge, SO surprising and so PURE, great!
THANK YOU Magda, Eduard and Radjabu !!!
