We toured Chobe, Victoria Falls and went on a Game Drive in Stanley Livingston - Amazing!
Tongesai was absolutely fantastic. Every step of the tour he built for us worked like clockwork. Seriously...he picked us up from the airport, handled every small element of the trip and was an utmost professional. I had never booked a trip from overseas, and I was skeptical of putting my trust in someone so far away. Tongesai was the right choice, and I can't tell you how much I would recommend him to any others.

Amazing Safari Adventure!!
My safari with Albert and Richard went completely above my expectations!! We saw the most amazing wildlife including 4 of the big 5 and had so much fun doing it. Food and accommodations were also better than expected! Wish I had them for the last day of my safari as well! Five stars!!

A delightful, well organised trip with attention to detail at all levels
Our trip to Africa with Ubuntu Safaris was amongst the most enjoyable we have experienced. From the initial meeting with Cuan, to the excellent documentation that gave accurate detail of what we could expect, to the actual trip itself, all was professionally organised and seamless.
The communications related to costs, travel arrangements and camps were all as advertised. All border crossings were smoothly negotiated and plenty of personal time was available over and above the morning and evening safari outings.
The relationship between African Ubuntu Safaris and staff at the various camps was relaxed, friendly and helpful. Overall, the trip more than lived up to our expectations.
We have no reservations in warmly recommending African Ubuntu Safaris. Go Ubuntu!

Worst experience
I found them on google search and thought that the reviews were good. Proceeded on to book and pay because they seemed trustworthy. About three days later, I tried contacting them but no one was answering. I tried everything I could but still nothing. So, I decided to file a complaint with my bank and went with another agency. I would never recommend it to anyone. Either they plan who to con once in a while, or this is a scam. Don’t fall for it. Worst experience ever.

The best vacation trip of our lives.
The entire experience, from the planning to the safari itself, was outstanding and well beyond our expectations. Prior to the trip, Brenda was always available to discuss options and to provide answers to all the questions we had. We felt very well prepared and were glad we could customize the trip and do exactly what we wanted to do. We were not limited to pre-packaged itinerary. The trip itself was spectacular, for which most of the credit goes to Leslie, our wonderful guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, helpful, kind, easy going and fun to be with. Also, his eyesight was unbelievable. Each of the parks - Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire - was special in its own way. We saw an amazing assortment of animals and birds, often so close-up we could have touched them. The accommodations were very comfortable and clean and the staffs were friendly and helpful; we never felt like we were "roughing it." All in all a first class trip that we will never forget.

Unforgettable Experience!!!!!
My husband and I have been dreaming about Africa for as long as we can remember. Early in our dating days we both laughed that Africa would be the perfect honeymoon destination. Well, as we got married last year we had to make it happen. Gift was fabulous in helping us put together an amazing trip with a combination of luxury and real people experience. We wanted to go canoeing, check! Meet locals – both bushpeople and everyday people, check! We wanted some adventure, check! We wanted luxury, check! And we wanted to see some animals, triple check! Our guide was Albert and he was a total rock star! He was very flexible taking us where we wanted to go (and when!), made us feel extremely safe and helped us find animals everywhere we went – even a cheetah as it ran across our path and a leopard in a tree munching on a zebra! The accommodations were really nice, but not too fancy which let it fit within our budget. We haven’t stopped telling our friends and family about this trip and look forward to planning our next one – vacation, not honeymoon!

Family Safari Experience
Wayfairer Travel planned an amazing trip for a family which lived to our every expectation and more. The lodges we stayed in were superbly located and Excellently appointed. The views from Rhino Ridge were incredible, giving tempting glimpses of the safaris awaiting. Thonga Beach Lodge is located on an incredible Indian Ocean beach which stretched for miles and often was deserted.
Menus were varied and imaginative. The policies employed by the Lodges to employ staff from local villages is very beneficial to the communities and it was enriching to meet local people.

Every aspect of our tour exceeded our expectations!
After contacting many tour companies to put together a tour including Gorilla trekking, QENP and chimpanzee trekking in Uganda, we decided on Africa Tours Adventure based on reviews, communication and the ideal itinerary and value for what we wanted. We started in Kigali and ended in Entebbe. Every aspect of our tour was just fantastic, from fast responses and communication via email from beginning to end; easy pickup and drop off at beginning and end of tour; a very comfortable vehicle; a great itinerary; and lodging, food and service that far exceeded expectations. And, above all, there was our tour guide, Rogers. Let's face it the guide can make or break a tour. Rogers was punctual and extremely organized, but also very flexible and personable! We always had what we needed, we always knew what was going on and what to expect, and we enjoyed his company as well! Also, he was an excellent driver, which you will find is a big deal because there is a lot of driving when you tour Uganda. If you do a tour of Uganda with Africa Tours Adventure, which you SHOULD, my recommendation would be to take your time. We did a 4 night/5 day tour (at our request) which included everything we wanted, but this is a beautiful country with really great people, and if I did it again, I would add an extra day to just relax and enjoy it!
