Fantastically Well Organised Tour Company with Excellent Guides
We initially contacted approx. 8 Safari/Tour operators offering Gorilla Treks in Uganda and Rwanda with a reasonably detailed specification of what we were looking for, only two responded with Itineraries that matched or request, accordingly we chose Experience Uganda Travel. Their pre-trip support was almost always immediate and fully comprehensive.
As far as the trip itself was concerned, which involved Chimpanzee Trekking/Habitation, Gorilla Trekking and Game Viewing in Queen Elizabeth National Park (including Tree Lions, Elephants, Hippos, Buffalo, numerous Bok etc.etc.). Plus a certain amount of Cultural activities. This was in a word "SUPERB" extremely well organised. The Guide/Driver we had (Obyara Emma Eyenga) was absolutely fantastic, in organising all the stays and activities plus as far as Game Spotting is concerned, he is without doubt one of the very best we have experienced in all our years of Safaris/Travels in Botswana, Kruger (Ngla), Zambia, KwaZulu-Natal.
Even slight unforeseeable vehicle problems were immediately sorted out with extreme professionalism by Experience Uganda Travel Management and the Guide/Driver and no way detracted or impinged on our trip.
Bottom line is from start to finish the whole trip was Fantastic. We will visit Uganda again and our automatic choice with no hesitation will be Experience Uganda Travel and would certainly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Uganda

Communicative, responding quickly, flexible
We really enjoyed safari with Ngalawa. It has also been very first experience for my partner, so he enjoyed even more. The company picked us up in front of the hotel where we stayed on agreed time. We travelled only in 2, so we had the whole car for ourselves which was really good when it comes to game viewing. The option we have selected was the combination of boat trip, walking safari and game drive which was perfect for person who never been to safari before. Service in the camp was amazing, all the time meals and snacks ready, rooms were clean. Our driver Leonard was trying his best to show us around and get us to best places to spot animals.
So if you want to enjoy safari in the reasonable distance from the capital, combine few options to experience, I would really recommend this one.

Great one day Safari
I did a solo one day Safari to Arusha National Park. We saw plenty of wild animals, many up close. Giraffe, Cape Buffalo, Zebra, Wart Hog, Waterbuck, Flamingo, Baboon, and Monkey. My guide was extremely knowledgable, friendly, and spoke great English.

Unforgettable experience in my life
We have good communication during this trip. If it need,travel agency would satisfy our needs as possible as they can. Our tour guide in Kenya and Tanzania-- Fred and Edward, both of them are experienced and careful. We met so many rainy days , and the road was very difficult to drive. They conquered all obstacles and sucessfully took us to see what we want to see, like big five, migration . Really thank you, kiliholidays.

Great Safari experience with Wakada tour
l have contacted Wakanda tour via their WhatsApp number mentioned in their internet page. l immediately received information about the whole package.
Bartho and Carlson both are very friendly and taking care persons. They helped me with all my queries and took care of a smoot nice Safari experience. Carlson and Bartho have helped me with arranging my flight and Bartho has drove me to the airport and made sure l get my flight.
l have taken the budged one for 6 days. l met great people from Canada and from Europe during the Safari. People around you makes the experience much better.
we started at Tarangire, then Manyara, Serengeti and finally Ngorongoro. All different experience and different wild lifes.
l liked Serengeti most since we also stayed in tented camp in the middle of wild life.
we have been taken care very well by our cook and our guide. Our guide, Dougles, was very experienced guide and gave us many information about wild life and also about Tanzania and its cultural life.
l surely advise Wakanda tour to everyone for a great Safari experience.

Excellent service and very knowledgeable
We had a stellar experience in our Africa tour that was booked thru Incredible Kenya Adventures. Francis was very flexible in the planning phase and helped us build the perfect itineary (10 days for party of 8). He worked tirelessly to get us the best deals on the hotels and was very communicative via WhatsApp and email.
Our driver for the majority of the Safari (Mr. Mungai) was also very knowledgeable and we had a great time with him on the tour.
Overall i highly recommend Incredible Kenya Adventures!! A++

The best tour guides ever!
The best company to go on safari with! Very nice and helpfull people who will make you feel safe and welcome. We were really lucky to choose them. Our guide Simon had a very wide knowlage about the animals and parks which he willingly shared with us. We were never rushed and took as much time as we needed. We learned a lot and had a really great time. Thank you!

We took an awesome 4 days Safari.
Abraham met us at the Arusha airport, which was very nice. Suggested to take Tarangeti instead of lake Manyara . Glad that we did as we saw elephants , girafs more animals but the most important baobabs. We were really lucky to see the emigration of animals. Chitas hunting. A lot of beautiful colored birds We enjoyed staying in tents.. especially the second day.. Where we could hear the gienas and a lion visiting our camp. Emanuel our driver and guide knows the places very good and has a lot of interesting information about animals. I think we saw the maximum we could see for the 4 days. The way to Serengeti it s a long one but definitely worth it. I would definitely recommend African Travel Tour. Would like to thank Abraham for helping us with the tickets to Zanzibar. Good price.. and best service.. Thank you.

Amazing Experience with Serac Adventure!!!
On January 2019, Me and my 2 girlfriends summitted Mt. Kilimanjaro via 8 days Lemosho route with 5 days safari afterwards. It took me sometimes to do the screening of many local tours and there were a lot of them! But I am glad that I decided to go with Serac Adventure. Here's the major reasons why:
- Nickson, the owner of Serac Adventure took the utmost care, that the trip planned and executed carefully. I talked to him during the planning stage and he was really helpful and very responsive to my emails. He was also very helpful from the time of our arrival until we departed. He would make sure that you come back from the mountain and the safari very satisfied. He was also funny and a friendly person to talk to.
- The mountain crews, including the guide, assistant guide, cook and porters were excellent. They checked our gear the night before the trekking to make sure that we brought the proper ones and they prepared some extra equipments which we might need during summit night and it was proven very helpful! The guides were so knowledgeable and experience on the mountain and they had a huge impact for us to summit the mountain and we did it. They knew the right pace for us to have a good acclimatization on the mountain. One of my friend had mountain sickness during the first two days and she tought that she wouldn't be able to continue the hike, but after the help, the patience and the positive attitudes of the mountain crews, she got better the next day and was able to continue the hike until the last day. POLE...POLE is the key!!!
- During the summit night, each of us was accompanied by a guide or an experience hiking crew to help, to encourage and to make sure our safety during ascending to the summit and descending to Barafu camp. If you could ascend to the summit but you could not descent safely, then it doesn't count!
-The food on the mountain and during the safari was also very amazing and I never got bored of it. I even found some of the meals that they prepared were more delicious than the one I had in the town. Other arrangements (i.e. tent set-up, hot drinks after arrival at tent, hot water for washing, breakfast, etc) were also well coordinated.
-We managed to see the big five during our 5 days safari and it was a lifetime experience! They guide explained to us about all the animals we saw there and he sounded very knowledgeable.
-The overall service we got was beyond my expectation considering the price we had paid.
Tanzania is a very beautiful country. Lemosho route is beautiful and unspoiled and I love all the national parks as well. We really had fun during our trip and many thanks to Serac Adventure and all the team members!
I would highly recommend Serac Adventure to anyone for your Mt. Kilimanjaro and safari adventures!
