A great adventure and we saw it all
Right Choice Tours and Safaris delivered. We were a last minute large group of seventeen. George delivered. Massaging Mara, Lake Nakura, Amboseli. Each park a unique topography with unique animals. Our lodges, keekorok in Masai mar! Lake Nakura lodge and the sibu safari camping Amboseli were great. Our drivers/guides, Jacob, ken, and Willy’s were all good. We saw the big five and much much more.
Right Choice was the right choice. Thank you.

Wild Planet Safari offered an outstanding experience featuring abundant Wildlife in Krueger
Our four day Safari with Wild Planet Safari at the end of the dry season in Krueger Park surpassed all my expectations. The park and campsites themselves are appropriately developed to offer a comfortable and accessible environment for visitors. If this is to be your first, or only African Safari, I highly recommend Krueger and Wild Planet Safari.
Our Wild Planet Safari with our Guide Ryan and his assistant in a private enclosed vehicle was the perfect choice. We had personalized service and wonderful meals. The information Ryan shared about the animals we saw was extensive. Additionally, Ryan was able to speak knowledgeably about Conservation not only in Krueger but in other parks in southern Africa, South African politics, and culture providing us with a much richer experience than we would have had touring on our own.
The dry conditions meant foliage was sparse which helped in spotting and viewing wildlife. Speaking of wildlife, the abundance and variety of birds and animals we saw continues to amaze me and the pictures I share with family and friends get rave reviews. Ryan's knowledge of the park itself meant he maximized every minute outside the campsite gate and visits to all the best animal viewing spots.
If you go, Go with Wild Planet Safari. Get your self an Animal guide Book because it is the ONLY way you will be able to keep track of every animal you see. Take the Morning Ranger led Bush Walk to spend time on the ground walking the trails used by the animals. You may not see ALL the animals you traveled to see but you will see far more animals/birds than you ever imagined you would.

Trip and Memories of a Lifetime
We traveled with a group of friends (6 in total) to Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania. We met with Chris to communicate what we wanted from our trip to Africa and our budget. The smartest thing we did was listen to Chris and have him put together the itinerary for us. It ended up being an amazing trip that met and exceeded our expectations in every way. We were well looked after by local guides during the entire time we were in Africa. We were in Rwanda to see the gorillas which were the highlight of our trip. Our animal safari was in Kenya where we stayed at two camps, the Elephant Bedroom in Samburu and Encounter Mara in the Masai Mara. Both camps were in a private reserve/conservancy that made for easy and up close views of animals. Both camps also provided excellent service and food but a special shout out has to go to Encounter Mara camp for their 5 star all around experience. We ended our holiday in Zanzibar in Tanzania where we spent several days on the beach at Matemwe Lodge.
A big reason why we had such a great experience in Africa is due to Chris' guidance and knowledge. We received great value in using Safari Partners and highly recommend them for anyone thinking of traveling to Africa.

Four days I'll never forget
Everything was perfect. The shuttle picked me up on time, all meals were pretty good, accommodations were really comfortable and also interesting (such as in Marc's Treehouse Camp, a great camp where we could easily see different animals nearby, even buffaloes). I thought really well organized, in a way that I always felt great professional work being done all the time. It was much more fun and more informative than I was expecting. The full Kruger day was absolutely incredible, specially because our friendly guide, Sean (from Viva Safaris), clearly loves his job and is pretty good at it - he gave us plenty of information about the animals and did the best to find the Big Five, and yeah, we saw the Big Five, and also a white lion at the end of the day. Amazing days and nights that already became strong memories.

Beautiful experience in Zanzibar
We had a blast in Zanzibar, we were taken in tour around the city and taught about the rich history, it was really a humbling experience. We walked everywhere which was a bonus for interacting with the locals, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. Our hotel was right on the beach, beautiful view, everyone was so nice to us and great food. I highly recommend LUESA Travel & Tours.

Wonderful experience from beginning of booking until end of trip!
My two adult daughters and I traveled on a custom itinerary in September 2018. After comparing prices and services of multiple safari companies in Uganda, we chose booking with Brian and GoExplore Safaris. We chose this company because of the range of services, the cost, and Brian's excellent communication. I told him what our needs and interests were and he made sure he included all that we were hoping for. GoSafari prices were comparable to other companies but what stood out with me the most was that Brian, owner and tour operator, communicated quickly, efficiently and welcoming before, during and after the trip. Although he was not our driver for the trip, he met us at the airport in the middle of the night with Moses, who would be our driver for the week, which was a nice touch. Brian also continued to check on us throughout the week, making sure we were happy and enjoying ourselves. Moses, our driver, was superior in all ways. He was knowledgeable, calm, a great driver, and always made sure we were taken care of, safe, and punctual for anything that we were scheduled for. We were in very good hands with Moses and Brian. Brian and Moses both get 5 plus star ratings for everything they did for us.
We traveled to Murchison Falls, QE National Park, Kibale NP, Bwindi Imp. Forest, did rhino trekking, chimp and gorilla trekking, took 2 boat trips, visited an orphanage, school and communities (something we requested) and much more and stayed in accommodations with beautiful views. It's unbelievable that we saw and experienced so much of Uganda in 9 days. It's amazing we were able to do it for the price as well.
I would recommend, without reservation, this company and it's employees. It truly was a trip of a lifetime and an enjoyable, learning experience.

Excellent trip
My family and i went to the HwangeNational Park during our vacation to Zimbabwe. We were picked up at our hotel by a very courteous driver and safely driven to the park 2hrs away. The accommodations at Hwange was good and the safari tours was very nice. In the park there was lots of elephants, giraffes and birds. Too bad we didn't get to see any cats but that's the way it is sometimes. Over all I would recommend using the folks at African Coast Tours to help with your vacation. Great job guys!!!

Very happy with trip to Tanzania - Dar, Selous, Stone Town and Zanzibar Beach
We were originally apprehensive as all our trips we arrange direct with each hotel/airline/guide etc
Ones did a great job listening to what we wanted and communicating along the way
The trip went to plan and we were very happy

Once in a lifetime experience climbing Kilimanjaro's Northern Circuit
Enosa Expeditions did an amazing job organizing a 9-day tour of Kilimanjaro and a 3-day safari tour. We definitely enjoyed ourselves. The guides, cooks, and porters for both the safari and the trek were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Everyone in our 5 person group was able to summit Kilimanjaro without any problems, and none of us got altitude sickness. The accommodations at Kilimanjaro Wonders Hotel, our place of stay, were also excellent. I will definitely recommend Enosa to anyone who wants to ascend Kilimanjaro or have a fun time in Tanzania.
