Excellent and very smooth experience
I thoroughly enjoyed the trip with Bamboo ecotours. Edison was super helpful and patient to answer all my questions from the start. This was my first time in Africa so I probably had more questions than most people who had been here before.
The actual trip was very smooth and amazing. Fred was my driver and guide. He did a great job making sure everything went as planned and my needs were met. Apart from the gorilla trekking, I also really enjoyed the time with the local community. Interacting with the local people just adds a whole other dimension to my experience. Highly recommend Bamboo ecotours and Fred!

Excellent experience
Jean picked me up at 5am in the hotel. We had a smooth drive to the Akagera NP for a game drive. We stopped for coffee and a nice breakfast buffet, and then the game drive. We saw many animals. Jean was a great driver and also great at spotting animals. We had great conversation in the car too. Highly recommend.

Harrison is an extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, friendly safari guide who keeps safety first.
I have had the pleasure of experiencing safaris with Harrison 3 times to date and am in the process of planning my next visit. I would recommend him to any and everyone looking to book a safari. I have experienced Massai Mara twice and Amboseli once, each being completely unique and breathtaking experiences. Massai Mara gives you an opportunity to potentially meet the Massai tribe and learn about how they live, whereas Amboseli gives you an opportunity to see Mt. Kilimanjaro which is an experience all on its own. I will warn though that there is no guarantee you will see Mt. Kilimanjaro in all its glory due to cloud coverage which you also obviously can't predict.
Harrison is an extremely intelligent, friendly, knowledgeable, safari guide/driver with a great sense of humor. He will make you feel at ease from the moment he picks you up. Harrison is very protective of his clients in a way of taking NO RISKS or chance of putting anyone in danger and making everyone feel as comfortable, safe and at ease as possible to enjoy the experience to the fullest. Harrison knows all the best places to spot the animals you desire to see and has proven to do the very best to his ability to make sure you see, learn and do everything you wish to do while enjoying your African safari. Book your safari with them NOW if you're even considering. I guarantee you will not regret booking with African Hagyko Safaris!

magical
Our ranger picked us up from our hotel bang on time. Salim he was brilliant. so full of knowledge. you could ask him anything and always bang on with the answer. We went to tsavo east and stayed in vio Lodge. On entry to the safari we seen so much . we done a 2 day 1 night safari which was perfect for us. cos as much as we loved looking at the animals I think when you see 1 elephant for example you seen them all. what an awesome experience a safari is. and we were very lucky to go on 1. Harri done the booking and he was always at the end of an email If I had a question. The lodge was lovely ideal for 1 night don't think I could of stayed longer to be honest. Rooms were clean etc but for 1 night is more than enough. the surroundings of the lodge is to die for. so much to see and so relaxing. food was nice. we had dinner and breakfast included but we had to pay for the drinks. I would 200% recommend doing a safari if you lucky enough. awesome magical experience.

Magical, Authentic and Exhilarating African experience
This safari was the best safari experience of my life. Growing up in South Africa I’ve been fortunate to experience a wide range of safaris from luxury lodges to self drive to walking safaris. The safari with Sam and his team tops my list of a relaxing retreat whilst been immersed in the beautiful African bush. Sam has an uncanny sense of where to park at a sighting so that his guests get the best views and photo opportunities. All qualified guides need to know the facts of the animals, birds and trees in their area - what sets Sam apart is his knowledge of their behavior and his delightful sense of humor. The team at the camp treated us like royalty and we were spoilt at every opportunity. It is unbelievable the quality of food that can be made on a camp fire. The tents are beautifully clean and the outdoor shower is the cherry on the top of every safari experience. We have booked our next adventure with Sam and the team. Ideal for a friend’s or family getaway. Thank you Sam and team for an experience that nurtured my soul and one that was very difficult to leave.

Great guides, great program, great experience!
The experience was very good! We started from Kigali, tracked gorillas in the Bwindi forest, then went for one night next to Bunyonyi lake, and then 2 days at Akagera. We prepared the travel with the guides on WhatsApp and arranged everything clearly. On Rwanda and Uganda the guides were always helpful and nice. The places we visited were very cool, but I also was surprised by the great quality of accommodation that was reserved for us! Thanks again for this unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable trip with Harrison
Safari was fantastic - we felt very well taken care of, the car was very comfy and our great ranger, Harrison, had the 6th sense with the animals and was great trip companion. We saw amazing things on the way and it was life-changing experience. Asante Sana
