Comfortable, lovely experience. Reliable operator!
We had a fantastic time with Africa Tours Adventure. Extremely professional and responsive. We had booked a 4 night itinerary -- 2 nights in Bwindi with Gorilla Mist camp and 2 nights in Lake Bunyonyi with Birdnest.
- Bookings: Very smooth. We always got detailed and SUPER-QUICK responses from Nicholas. We had contacted a number of tour operators but Nicholas ability to provide us gorilla trekking passes for a particular day as well as his responsiveness, made us choose him for the trip. I was also very particular about the hotels we stay. In spite of a lot of to and fro, Nicholas was very patient to accommodate the best possible stay options for us. He was ready to give us what we wanted and was very honest about the prices for the same too. They provide you the band for your buck!
- Accommodation: Stay was very comfortable in both the places with UNBELIEVABLE views. Gorilla Mist camp and Bird-nest - both were second choices but were perfect for us. (Our first choices had some big group bookings in both the places exactly for our dates. Nicholas also offered to switch the dates to accommodate but we wanted to stick to itinerary and hence went with 2nd choices instead.)
- Tour & Guide: There are long drives in this trip which I was prepared for. Our guide, Rogers, was a very sweet person. He was polite, helpful, punctual, professional and always answered our questions. He also helped us change currency and gave honest view of the exchange rates. (He also helped in advance of the drink prices so that we knew how much to convert as the rest of the trip was paid for.)
Overall, a fantastic country with beautiful people. Would love to come back to Uganda to see more wildlife next time.

Nice holidays with Orongai Africa company
Tanzania was a fantasy location for me quite a while. The wild beasts are so impressively astounding to pull in me.
Our visit guide Asseri was exceptionally proficient and knowledgeable about all that we encountered. Likewise, He also takes us deliberately, treat us like a genuine family. We sensed that this trip was amazing and had a great experience in viewing passionate Africa. On the whole, it was an unforgettable trip with Orongai Africa Tours.

Tour of Kenya, August 2018.
We traveled through the parks of Kenya by a small group of 4 people. The company was chosen thanks to Elena, the Russian-speaking manager. After much discussion, the route was approved: Samburu-Solio-Bogoria-Naivasha-Masai Mara. The trip was organized at a good level, but there are a few comments. In Masai Mara we were replaced with a samp and settled in the ENCHOROW WILDLIFE samp Masai Mara. They greeted us cordially, but this was all wrong. We had 2 houses, in one the toilet was in disassembled condition and the water was flowing with a river, and all three days we were trying to fix it, but it was not possible. There were also problems with light. Burning wood and firewood burned next to the other house, it was impossible to breathe. But we made an advance payment, so that we booked everything in advance. The firm promised that we will have a cook, but right on the day of departure, they said that he was sick and only appeared in Masai Mar, but we do not think that it was our cook, since we ate our own table. We travel a lot and we know what our chef is, by the way there were groups with his cook.
I would like to say a big thank you to Elena for the prompt resolution of all the questions that arose, if her trip had not been spoiled for her help.
Thank you to the wonderful guide of the driver of Kagum, his skill and knowledge allowed us to see everything that we wanted.
And the company wants to wish that it clearly fulfilled its promises and carefully chose partners.

Reviewed 1 week ago Everything was very well planned
Communication with Sarah was fantastic beginning many months before the trip. He and his wonderful staff have answered all my interrogations via e-mail and that was the main reason why my wife and I chose Dallago Tours . Pick-up at the hotel was on-time. The Safari tents at Elanagata Olerai Camp was much better than during my first safari in the Masai-mara a few years back. They were equipped with a hot water shower and a toilet. Beds were very comfortable. Visiting a Masai village is a must. I strongly recommend it. They were very welcoming. Many thanks to Joshua who brought us there. During the 3-day Safari, We saw the big 4 (excluding the Rhino which has become so rare to spot - haven't seen any during my first Safari either) and a lot of other animals, too numerous to mention here. The stop at Narok was a bit too long with our driver Joshua, over an hour and a 40 minutes, I am sure there is a possibility to accelarate things at Narok in order to spend more time on a Safari. Having mentioned that, we really appreciated our safari with our driver Joshua and we strongly recommend Dallago Tours.

Amazing safari
It all started with good communication with Geophrey. Emails were promptly replied and when we arrived, Jane was there to pick us up. She was very friendly and briefly explain about our safari. Our guide Simon was very knowledgeable and funny. We managed to see all the big 5. As for the camps all are wonderful especially in Masai Mara. Will definitely use their services again.

I had such a great time visiting beautiful animals with the best possible guiding!
Everything was just so great! From my requests they costume made a great plan for my tour. The guide Peter is very professional, knowledgeable and humble. He understands very well what visitors need and would enjoy experience. I saw amazingly many beautiful animals in a fairly short safari tour and was more then satisfied when we returned to Kampala.

Trip of a lifetime that far exceeded any expectations!
Luckily I had a friend who had spent months researching which trekking and safari company to go with months earlier so when it came time to plan my own trip, I went with her strong recommendation of KTM which saved loads of time and was the best decision I could have made! Nick who worked his way up from being a porter, to a guide and now a company owner, was extremely professional, helpful and responsive to all our of pre trip jitters, emails and thousands of questions. From the moment we landed to our departure, he was there to help and go out of his way to ensure we were safe, well taken care of and in the best hands with our guides and team. (He even had to send a porter up the mountain 3 days in to deliver us warmer sleeping bags and tampons!!!) Our team for Kilimanjaro was incredible and our guides Ali and "Simbamze" ensured our safety, confidence and success in reaching the top. Kevin the chef cooked up amazing food which was way more and much better than I could have imagined! (Was hoping to lose weight and I think we all gained instead!) Cholo our waiter would wake us up ginger tea every morning, dust off our boots at the end of each day and even give us massages if we felt sore. By the end ceremony, we were all in tears to say our goodbyes and so thankful for all their hard word and contagious smiles! Our safari was also amazing and an easy transition with incredible accommodation, food and professional kind guide Shirima. I highly recommend this company without any reservation! Asante Sana!

Extremely Profesional with outstanding service
What a great Company! They are professional in every way with great communication. I will admit I was a bit concerned that they were not a USA based operator but with the communication with Maurice the director all my worries faded quickly. Maurice explained everything clearly and simply. Everything was simple and seamless from deposits to end! Our Driver/guide Muli Jones was a great ambassador as well as a Great guide and very experienced and very personable he is a great asset to the company. We were able to see and photograph the big 5 with the eagle eyes of Muli being essential! his knowledge of the names of all animals and birds is amazing!! This was such a nice trip im still amazed! the accommodations were all very good Moderate lodges and tent camps with very good dinning choices and amenities. To all Us travelers I would recommend using Africa Safari Classics without thinking twice! Absolutely no problems with booking or on our trip. Thanks you to Maurice and Muli for providing us with the trip of a life time!!
