Great
The 5 days camping safari was great. Geofrey was very helpful and friendly. We saw so many animals and the crater is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited.
The tents were nice and the food was fine. The price for the tour was very good.

very good driver/guide and good food with a somewhat old car
We had a wonderful safari-time, driver and cook/chef were very good; some minor points, but as a consequence of the sharp quote for our trip, our stay in simple tents on a campsite was not our style ( we are 70 + years of age) and the car was somewhat old; traveling on the dirt roads makes a lot of noise in the car. Overall we will advise to go with Decent tours Ltd.

Great itinerary and lodging with spectacular views
I chose the 5-Day Kibale Chimps & Bwindi Gorilla Trek Uganda Safari for the second leg of my African vacation. Communication during planning was excellent. On the day I arrived in Entebbe, we were going to leave directly from the airport to start the safari. The guide was late. I called him since I had been given the number, and he seemed annoyed, asking me if I had called his boss. He said he had been told that I would arrive at 6:30, when in fact it was 6. Getting through customs was easy, so I had to wait for about 30 minutes. We got on our way in any case. I had just came off a great trip in Kenya, and I found this guide to be a bit closed off. We didn't really talk much, even over lunch.
When we arrived at the first lodge, Isunga, he just dropped me off and said he would see me at breakfast. I guess the guides don't eat with the guests at this place, but I had some of my best moments on the previous safari hanging out with my guides and it would have been nice to spend a little more time with a local resident. The experiences on the treks were incredible. I would only suggest that they remove the "game drive" wording from the description regarding the passage through Ishasha. Passing through the park on the main road to Congo doesn't really constitute a game drive. The scenery in the mountains is simply incredible. My guide was opening up a bit by now (on our 3rd day together) and telling me about the crops, markets, and some of the land owners in the area. The Bakiga Lodge was beautiful, and I appreciated the briefing about their conservation and rainwater harvesting efforts to benefit the community. I was able to have meals with my guide here, and we were able to start having cordial conversations.
We had a couple of misunderstandings, but I think we had everything worked out by the end of my trip.

Met expectations
We booked our toor on a very short notice but all was ready as we wanted it to be, nicely received in the airport, friendly people running our tour , driver, cook,, good vehicle, well managed program until we were sent back to airport on time to catch our flight onwards.
Going back we had no complains, only good memories, and desire to do it again.

Best holiday ever!
We had a wonderful trip with Ababa safari tours and travels. Our guide, Hamsa, was really caring and has nice stories about Uganda, his experiences and the animals. Robert organized it very well. I liked our stay in Queen Elizabeth National Park at Engiri Game Lodge. My high light was the gorilla that trekking. I could really recommend a safari with this agency. You could add one day at the Lake after the hikes, for some relaxation. :-)

James was brilliant from when I first contacted him and this level of competence continued
Amazing, awesome, terrific. Not one of these words can portray how I felt going on this safari with my family and James made my dream holiday a reality. When I asked a question by email to James he came back with a answer within a day at the latest. The price paid for the safari was very good and I would not hesitate in recommending wildlife sun safaris to anyone. If in doubt contact him as he will soon make you feel comfortable and very well looked after. The safari. Itself was fantastic and we were so pleased to have Mr Toya as our guide, he was a great driver, spotter of animals and we all came to regard him as our friend. We felt very safe throughout and the ladies we stopped at we're just perfect for us. We do want to go again on safari to and would not dream of using another company after having such a perfect experience with James and have our friend Mr Toya again as our fab guide. Don't put off contacting this company because they really do listen and make your every wish come true at a very very reasonable price.

I wish I could give more stars than 5!
We started planning our safari more than a year ago with Seven By Far. Prior to choosing them, we had sent out e-mails and messages to more than 50 other travel companies in Canada, the US and Africa. Seven By Far was amazing from start to end. We were in continuous communication prior to leaving, and they followed our trip and kept in contact for the 15 days we traveled Kenya and Tanzania. I will use them again in the future for my next safari adventure, and I've already recommended them to my friends and family. The guides we had while we were out on safari were knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and always making sure we were having the best time possible. We had the greatest time. Thank you Seven By Far, I look forward to seeing you in the (hopefully near) future.

The Kenya trip
In the summer of 2018 I went to Kenya and had a blast! This was my first time in Africa and I would have not had the same experience with out mowgli expeditions. Their knowledge of the different species in Africa really let’s you learn about the wild life that you are witnessing. I would highly recommend anybody who is thinking about going to Africa to go with mowgli expeditions, trust me you will not regret it.
