Wonderful safari
We had a wonderful safari organised by gilmag. Mary is a reliable person, understanding our needs. With our young children we had a marvellous time observing wild animals. An experience we will never forget! Thank you Gilmag!

Fast responses, reliable service, everything done as the itinerary promised.
We booked a private two-person safari with Uwanda Tours. I would recommend the operator, as everything happened as planned, they are reliable and we enjoyed our trip very much!
A driver picked us up at our hotel in Zanzibar and took us to the flight to Mtemere Airstrip. Our itinerary consisted of a boat tour, a full day game drive and a walking safari. All guides and drivers were on time, all of them could give us information on the program and what to do next. The guides were experienced, they knew exactly where to look for the animals, so we have seen many and they told us lots of interesting facts about the nature.
The accommodation was at Africa Safari Lodge, the room was comfortable with a private bathroom, there were three meals per day and the staff was helpful.
We felt like our safety was their priority, we had a great time. Thank you for the tour!

Excellent org by spirit of Kenya
Planning the holiday with Andre from spirit was very good - he was very flexible and gave us a number of different and varied options to consider. He was also very responsive to all my questions in a timely and detailed manner.
All the arrangements ran smoothly and as excepted ( in some cases exceeded our expectations )
Patrick our safari guide was excellent - knowledgable and very friendly and flexible he really made sure we were comfortable and we got to see the big 5 .
All hotels / lodges were very good and met all our needs with interconnecting rooms fir the children and our dietary requirements / no complaints at all.
It was a wonderful experience and spirit of Kenya made it a very special holiday of a lifetime for us .

Excellent 13 Days Rwanda, Uganda Gorilla Trekking & Wildlife Safari private tour
Me and my partner Lukas have enjoyed a 13 Days Rwanda, Uganda Gorilla Trekking & Wildlife Safari private tour with Adventures to Gorilla Africa. We have enjoyed every single day and had an excellent experience with Adventures to Gorilla. Rogers Muhumuza has been our contact person for the original planning of the tour and also was he our driver and guide. He picked us up at Kigali Airport and drove us to the first hotel. The next morning we started our tour with him. Rogers is outstanding in everything. He was a safe driver, always on time, very attentive, very knowledgeable about the countries and its wildlife and culture. He was very friendly and was always going the extra mile for us. We asked many questions and we enjoyed conversation with Rogers and to learn about the culture. His 4WD safari vehicle was very comfortable and clean all the time and we never had a single issue with the car. All the accommodation suggested was great with good food and service and we would not have found these lodges ourselves. We were very much excited to track the Grorillas at Volcanos Park in Rwanda as well as in Bwindi Forest. It was an unforgettable experience. We also loved seeing Chimpanzees in Kibale forest. For the Safari part of our trip we went to Queen Elisabeth National Park where we saw Elelephants at the water, hippos, lots of birds, buffalos and many other animals from a fantastic boat cruise along Kazinga Channel. Another highlight were our game drives of the Savannah at Murchison Falls National Park Uganda. We saw herds of Elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes. And we were lucky to see a lion on the tree. Roger took the extra mile and showed it to us from close distance. To summarise our experience was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend everyone to travel with Adventures to Gorilla Africa.

Great trip in Kilimanjaro, Mkomazi, and Usambara
We went on a week-long trip with Sunday Safaris. Leading up to the trip, our contact Carola was very helpful in not only designing our trip specifically tailored to our budget, time schedule and wishes, but also in scheduling airport pick-up. Our guide, Daniel, was very service-minded and knew so much about the wildlife! He was lovely to hang out with. We went to Mkomazi, Kilimanjaro and Usambara.
They were also kind enough to provide vegetarian options for all lunchboxes, which were excellent quality. We cannot wait to book another trip with Sunday Safaris.

Made all our dreams come true
Best trip ever! I highly recommend it. It was worth every penny.
I booked a 6 day 5 night safari with lion king adventures back in January for august 2022. From beginning to end the service was great. Pendo assisted us to make sure we were able to stay at the accommodations of our choosing. Our tour guide was Good Luck. When meeting us, he asked us what our favorite animals were to make sure that we could spend time seeing them. Every morning he would start the tour by telling us where we were going and a little about the area. He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and was able to explain to how to differentiate between males and females, tell us about the cubs, food the animals eat, their prey, and so much more. He made sure we were able to see the big 5 and spent extra time finding the animals we were interested in. He would also move around so my fiancé could get the best pictures possible. Additionally, Good luck was able to tell us about the different tribes and cultures in the area. I highly recommend him.
We stayed at the gran melia Arusha, Gibbs Farm, and Melia Serengeti. Each place was great however Melia Serengeti is pretty far in central Serengeti and therefore you have to drive a while in order to see animals during the game drive. If you would like to get up and just see animals I would not recommend staying here. Gibbs farm was absolutely amazing. Everything you eat here is from their farm and they have so many activities for you to do.
Lastly, I will mention we had no problems with communication. Everyone spoke English very well.

Organized and professional
If it wasn't exciting enough to be going on a Safari in the Serengeti, we had an incredible tour operator to make it more special. Paul in the office was very organized and perfect guiding us step by step through the reservation process. Albert was an exceptional guide that traveled with us from resort to camp to lodge to tent and everywhere in between. We could NOT have had a more knowledgeable guide! Albert has a degree in animal behavior and was a wealth of information on the oddities and peculiarity of each habitat, herd, pride and species interaction behaviors. We learned many interesting facts about each species along with mating rituals and predatory protocols. This adventure was a bucket list fulfilled with the BIG 5 (Lion, Black Rhino, Leopard, Lion, Elephant, Water Buffalo) and Super 7 (Big 5 plus Cheetah and Jackal) all in one trip. We were close enough to giraffe, elephant, zebra and wildebeest to look right in their eyes as they walked within inches of our Jeep. We saw the mating ritual literally in front of our eyes of a male and female lion. We were very near 3 cheetahs resting under a tree, giraffe were fighting from dominance, warthogs are hilarious, hyena are demonic looking, hippos smell awful and crocodiles were typically nearby. Water buffalo, jackal, leopard in treetops, baboon blocking the pathway, black rhino under the trees and many incredible birds. The greatest part of it all, these gorgeous, majestic animals were in their natural habitat, running free and living a protected life!!! HIGHLY recommend this exceptional trip!! Roadside Expeditions will take care of your details with fabulous accommodations, food and staff. Request Albert as your guide!!
