Marvellous
Peter took me around Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and the mountains showing a complete understanding of not only the beautiful history of the park, animals and various hills but also of the weather conditions and care to be taken at all times throughout the National Park. In addition to the very friendly approach and a good sense of humour, Peter makes himself easily available and flexible to attend to your wishes. Highly recommended for sure.

Great Organisation
I have just returned from a superb trip to Uganda organised by Let's Go Travel. It went very well indeed. It was a group tour, but I travelled on different flights and was met at the airport by a lovely lady (Christina) holding a card with my name on it. This takes the stress out of what to do on arrival. The hotels were very good with lovely flavours in the food. I have food intolerances, but was catered correctly for me, which added to the enjoyment of the trip. There are so many different habitats in Uganda, such as savannah, wooded, forested, swamp etc which makes great a variety of birds and mammals. We had many highlights- gorilla, chimps, different types of monkeys, hippos, elephants, shoebill and other birds. Our guide Jude was brilliant, so knowledgeable, patient, safe driver and so enthusiastic about his country. He worked hard to ensure we saw our targets such as lions in a tree. The people in Uganda are friendly always with a smile on their faces. Everything on the tour was well organised and I felt safe at all times. Let's Go Travel impressed me and I would travel with them again.

Our accommodation, the Africa Safari tented Lodge was amazing.

John was a great, knowledgable and entertaining tour guide!
I loved the tour. The safari was absolutely great. It was well organized, even though the people on the tour constantly changed in order to fill up the car. Our tour guide John was very reliable and always on time.

5-Day Kruger Safari, Panorama Route & Canyon Boat Cruise - Excellent, Friendly and Great Value.
We booked the above trip with Red Africa Safaris and I must say it was the best trip we have had the pleasure to enjoy. The booking of the trip was very easy and relaxed and Amelia was able to answer all questions without any fuss.
The highlight of the trip was having our own personal guide Joco. From the moment he picked us up at the Hotel he made the whole experience a wonderful event. On the trip out to Panoramic Route Joco provided us with a comprehensive overview and history of the regions we travelled through. He was able to answer all questions fully with knowledge from his vast experience of the regions.
At the different beauty stops (the Pinnacle Rock look-out point, the beautiful Lisbon Falls, Bourke’s Luck Potholes, the Three Rondavels and Blyde river Canyon and the Blyde river Canyon Dam) Joco provided an in-depth overview of each of the them and again the history surrounding them, especially how the Dutch settlers made their way through these regions.
The trip on the Canyon Boat trip on the Blyde River was very interesting and relaxing with another excellent guide providing great information and stories of the River. The visit to the Moholoholo Wildlife Centre was very interesting and the hosts provided a very good picture of what is happening to the different animals in South Africa and how they work with the local farmers in protecting and helping animals where possible.
Once we got to Kruger Park Joco passed us onto the local guides but not without providing advice on what to look out for and how to notice small changes in the landscape to be able to see different Animals. We went out in the park on four separate occasions and where able to see a wide variety of animals at different times of the days. All four visits to the park where well organised and the guides knowledgeable and willing to try and meet peoples requests.
On the afternoon of the last day Joco took us out to some places that he knew well to get even closer to some of the animals we had seen from a distance and again his local knowledge and knowledge of the animals was put to good use.
One thing I must say is while we were on one of the trips to the park we had a few visitors to our cabin who helped them selves to some fruit and cakes that Jaco had provided for us when he prepared out evening meals. We found this to be very entertaining to have been chosen by these visitors. I think Joco thought otherwise.
Again on the trip back to Johannesburg Joco was able to provide more information on the regions we passed through and made the trip thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish.
It was great meeting Joco and learning about his very interesting background, his home with the different animals and his Family which he shared with us over the 5 Days. We will definitely be looking to book another trip with Red Africa Safari in the near future.

Safari Goats provided an exceptional Safari experience beyond what I dreamed.
Safari Goats provided exceptional white glove service through each phase of our safari. During planning they listened to learn the type of experience we wanted to have as well as our budget, and provided great options for us to select from. They were quick to communicate and were patient responding to all of my questions. By the time we met at the airport, I felt like we were family and felt completely comfortable and at home in their hands.
As for the Safari experience, everything including their explanations, sharing of the culture and knowledge of the parks was unmatched. The accommodations were beautiful and exceeded my expectations - their recommendations were top notch and they cared that the lodges met our expectations.
I could go on and on saying great things about how wonderful Safari Goats is, but I’ll stop by saying their genuine kindness and excitement at our joy and amazement meant so much to me. They love what they do and put that joy into your experience. Book these guys, you won’t be sorry!
Oh and they are top notch photographers and videographers! A safari with Safari Goats is worth every penny.

Wonderful time in Uganda
Solo traveler - Communication from the start was excellent , extremely fast in response and detailed plan of what the tour will be and what I should I expect from it. I did change the plan couple of time and they were very accommodating. My tour guide Brian was brilliant ! always showed up on time , answered any questions I had ( I asked alot) , funny and made sure every picture I wanted to take was taken . my experience wouldn't have been the same if it wasn't for Brian.
if you are considering visiting Uganda use Home to Africa and ask for Brian !

Amazing
I am a travel agent and booked a safari tour with African Mosaic Tours.
Max was so helpful and extremely responsive. He made the whole process so easy.
My clients absolutely loved their Safari and said their Tour Guide was so good!
They said their whole experience was amazing!
When they returned home they even requested that Max send them some post cards from Africa and he did. They go above and beyond.
I highly recommend African Mosaic Tours and will definitely book clients with them again!
