If you are looking to go to Africa, Encompass Africa are the team to befriend
It was our first trip to Africa and like most people we didn’t know where to start. Stephanie asked me what we wanted to see, what our budget was and how much time did we have, after having a brief discussion over the phone, Stephanie responded that same afternoon with the first draft of our itinerary. I made several changes to that first itinerary and none of them were a problem. The accommodation we chose was boutique, small and offered everything we wanted, she helped us choose accommodation that was slightly different in all locations, some were luxury tents, others tree top houses or lodges, all with magnificent view of waterholes, and all with exceptional staff and amenities. The trackers and lodge staff are the friendliest and most knowledgeable people you will meet, and are one of the highlights of Africa. The safari activities were exceptional and exceeded all our expectations, we did a walking safari, spent the night in the treetops, had a bush bath and many many more amazing experiences. We saw so many animals and such a wide variety of animals, that we could only dream of seeing. Over 13 internal flights, pick ups, drop offs and tours were arranged perfectly and someone was there to meet us at every point. We couldn’t have had this amazing stress free holiday without the expertise of Encompass Africa, I can highly recommend their services and the knowledgeable staff that hold your hand through every step of the way.

It was amazing
It was really well organised!
Since we contacted them , they text us back in 5 minutes. Pick up at the airport, and once at the hotel, we could pay there (they gave us the option to pay at arrival).
Next day we started the safari and was incredible! with the best guide ever, Benson, explained us all the animals, and in 4 days we saw all of them!
Really professional! We had a great time with him and the food was also great!
Sleeping inside the natural parks was amazing! It made everything more authentic.
The team at the hotel was also really kind, and helpful.

Best experience a female solo traveler could ask for from the first inquiry, to the airport drop off
Sedrick was unique and stood out from the rest in the high quality communication he provided since the first inquiry. He called me to provide information about the itinerary and see if I had any questions even before booking the tour. We communicated through WhatsApp for any other questions that came to mind after that call. After picking me up from the airport, he and Pilot (additional tour guide) provided plenty of information about the country to give me some context and we started our long drive to the impenetrable forest. The food was delicious with many options; the accommodation was very clean with exceptional service; and the transportation from Entebbe to Bwindi park was very comfortable (although long). As a solo female traveler, both tour guides (Sedrick and Pilot) did an exceptional job at enduring I accomplished everything intended to in Uganda, and always made me feel safe. I highly recommend to book your safari with this company because the quality and professionalism will not let you down.

Trip of a lifetime
Our Northern Circuit Tanzania safari was planned, to perfection, by Casey of Access2Tanzania. The company specializes in custom, private tours. We had a single guide throughout the 9 days of our safari; from airport to Tarangire to Ngorongoro to Northern Serengeti. The safari was planned to perfection. Every detail was double and triple checked. Our guide, Danny, ensured that our time in Tanzania was as perfect as humanly possible. Five stars doesn't seem enough!

Review about Murchison Falls National Park by Barbara Osmundson
This was our favorite park. Scenery is stunning. Wildlife incredible. This was our favorite game drive. We went with the sun rise, and lighting was incredible for photographs of the great herds of wildlife that occur here.

Review about Lake Mburo National Park by Barbara Osmundson
Only place we saw zebras. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is that this park is missing 2 apex predators because of neighboring cattle ranches. I don't know what the solution is. The guide here was excellent.
