We had an amazing time which was truly enhanced by the dedicated work of our guide Ouko Zakaro
Ouko Zakaro is/was a professional, thoughtful and dedicated driver/guide. His enthusiastic approach to sharing his experience permitted us to see the animals on the Massai Mara through his wise eyes. He pointed out so much to us and explained everything too, referring to and showing us pictures in his books when necessary. He listened to our requests and made it happen whenever he could. For example, I really wanted to see the giraffes and if by magic, a few kilometers later, there they were!!! The same happened when we requested to see the lions, although it was several kilometers later, but he persevered and succeeded in pleasing us. Thank you for making making our holiday into an adventure we will never forget - an absolutely amazing trip.

Adventure all around - Adventure Three Sixty
I have been on safari several times, but never before have I been traveling with a safari tour operator that takes the client that seriously. Being picked up at the airport by one of their drivers, being met at my hotel by the central representative of the tour operator the evening before the start of the safari, and being followed up during and after my safari tour - I have never experienced that before; and I really appreciated it! I was also given a number that I could call at any time if facing any problem during the tour. I really felt as an important client,. Usually, I do not remember safari tour operators that I have been traveling with. I will definitely remember Adventure Three Sixty Kenya.
I was on an 11-day safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania - Maasai Mara, Amboseli, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Nairobi National Park.
During these 11 days of safari in 6 different parks, I saw the Big Five. Not for the first time, but it is always great to see the Big Five.
I guess the most memorable incident was when being on a perfect distance from two leopards in a tree in Serengeti. And within a couple of hours the first late afternoon in Serengeti, seeing lions, cheetahs and leopards. Another great experience was to sleep in a tent in the camp in Serengeti while hyenas were walking between the tents.
Adventure all around - Adventure Three Sixty. I really do recommend them!

Great journey
We've booked 5-day Mount Kenya climbing. It was amazing! Thanks a lot to our guide Jimmy and Patrick's team (Patrick, Aizek, Kim,...). The food cooked for us was very tasty, climbing was interesting, amazing and not very difficult.

Excellent 14 Days Gorilla, Chimpanzee and Wildlife Safari
We had a very special time in Uganda with great wildlife sightings and a fascinating insight into the culture of this amazing country which truly is the "Pearl of Africa".
Even before the beginning the trip we were very well looked after by Scovia who put together the best possible safari package with well chosen accommodations for us and always immediately took care of any wishes or concerns we had. After a very warm welcome at the airport we set off to our awesome journey with our extremely experienced and reliable guide Ben who made our holiday an unforgettable experience thanks to his first-hand knowledge of the country, its people and wildlife. The highlights of the trip certainly were the surprisingly close encounters with the gorillas and chimps, but also the beauty of Queen Elizabeth National Park and the diversity of the landscape.
We can highly recommend planning your trip to Uganda with Pamora Safaris - thanks to Scovia and Ben we had a fantastic journey which we will never forget!

Good experience and reliable support
We worked with Aramati and John to coordinate a month long trip in Kenya. Aramati drivers were knowledgeable and courteous and we enjoyed interacting with them. Vehicles were clean and comfortable and we felt secure as we traveled from Nairobi to various parts of Kenya. Kenya is an amazing country with incredible people and parks and I would be happy to work with Aramati on future trips.

Can't say enough positive for our family vacation with 11 and 13 year olds
From start to finish, Abdallah with Uhuru Travel and Tours was prompt and had everything super organized and had the best people working for him. We were traveling with another family. Kids were 11-13. Four kids and Four adults. We all went in one big safari jeep and it was SO MUCH FUN with our driver, Julius. He was part of our family and was so calm, patient and loved to laugh with us. He cared so much about the land and showed us everything. We saw all animals and he knew when we were ready to move on or just keep watching. We all could tell that other drivers respected him and he was sought after at the gate entrances with hellos and chit chat. This made us feel so good. He was a wise soul and just perfect with the kids. We all love and miss him! There are some days you are in a jeep for NINE hours. You want to like your driver and trust him. Julius checked every box.
Everything we booked from start to finish was impeccable. Flights , extra tours, lodging and timelines. We hit so many parks and had the BEST people to people cultural experiences. We had brought clothing , balls, candy and school supplies just in case and we mentioned to Julius that we would like to stop at an orphanage or somewhere to share with local kids. He looked up a orphanage that he drove by quite a bit and we stopped a couple days into our trip. It was a huge highlight for our kids and us. We played and hung out with the children. It was really fun and special.
If anyone wants to reach out, I can answer any questions. I was super hesitant to book just because I wasn't sure of Uhuru Travel and Tours and there was nothing on Trip Advisor , but I can assure you that we were extremely pleased. We live outside of San Francisco and have very active kids - this trip was perfect. It is important to know that at some of the lodges we were in two separate rooms - beautiful rooms, but there aren't a lot of accommodations that had 2 double beds in a room. Sometimes we had adjoining rooms and sometimes we were right next door to each other or shared a deck . Abdallah had told us this, but I want to express that it was always figured out and we were right next door to each other. It was really perfect accommodations. We stayed in 3-5 star lodges.
We did 10 day safari and cultural experience in Tanzania and 4 days in Zanzibar. Everything was taken care of by Abdallah and I mean everything. Best service and Julius was a phenomenal driver and person. We knew we were being taken care of on day one! The personable service was excellent.
There was a Uhuru Travel representative who met us at the hotel going and leaving Arusha. His name was Mr. Loy. Such a sweet man and he explained everything and answered all our questions. I didn't even know there would be someone to meet us so that was a bonus and put everything at ease right away. We bought stuff on safari and Mr. Loy kept it so we didn't have to bring it to Zanzibar. Than he met us when we flew back in a parking lot and gave us our souvenirs. When we went on a "safari blue tour" in Zanzibar that we booked thru Abdallah after we arrived to Zanzibar. We had our own guide with the group we were with and felt special. I can't even explain in words how our trip was besides PERFECT! Get the WhatsApp as we communicated thru that. All communication was prompt. Enjoy! Trip of a lifetime for our family!!! We travel quite a bit and this one is towards the top!
WE MISS JULIUS and Tanzania. Beautiful people. We always felt safe and taken care of!!!

Amazing experience and very professional
We went into an 8days Safari in Uganda with Gatatu Safaris. The expererience was amazing and overall even exceeded our expectations.
Lodging was amazing (imagine Elephants coming exactly out of your door in the lodge feeding and you are there to capture the moment)
Activities (They delivered exactly what they promised with all animals included and tried their best to achieve it)
Behaviour-Punctuality - Responsiveness, were up to European standards and extremely friendly and caring to our specific needs. Even when we had a medical emergency they were there to help and found immediate solution.
Our driver Stephen, was amazing, very skillfull driver and accomondating with a clear friendly and human approach.
Lastly the owner provides some of the money into real charity for children in need and we had the pleasure and honour to see it with our own eyes.
Prices are amazing and much lower than the competition.
So please, whenever you want to look for a Safari in Africa consider them as the best-by far option. We are looking forward for our next trip to Kenya and Tanzania with them.
