Best Safari Experience and Excellent Service
After watching many safari organizers we decided to join Bigfoot Adventures and the experience was better than expected.
The transport was comfortable, all very well organized but the best was how nice these guys are and they try that you remember the trip as a fantastic experience.
Thanks very much and hope to come back one day!!

Uganda Trip 2017 arranged by Wild Jungle Trails
I had an outstanding tour of Uganda arranged by Wild Jungle Trails last month ( July 2017). It was a last minute booking and they really went the extra mile to arrange it for me. I contacted two other agencies beforehand and neither was very helpful. Teresa from the tour office went out of her way to allay any concerns I had. She also provided helpful explanations to my numerous questions and made suggestions where her level of expertise was a huge benefit to me. Since I did not have unlimited time (13 days in Uganda) and I wanted to do a lot of things, it was important to plan correctly and we as much as I could. I started off from the Protea Hotel on the shores of Lake Victoria and drove up to Murchison Falls National Park. On the way we stopped at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary ( it's not often you get to stand 60 feet from a mother Rhino and her baby or look over and see 4 rhinos lazing in the shade). Another few hours out us at Murchison Falls an amazing location with so many animals visible that it also still didn't seem real. ( multiple lions, antelopes, elephants, hippos, buffaloes galore. The Falls themselves were great too. From there I went down to the Kibale rainforest to hang out with the chimps ( amazing) and then a boat on the Kazinga Channel and then Ishasha in Queen Elizabeth National Park. ( yes I saw the famous tree climbing lions up close and personal and elephants right outside my tent at the great Ishasha Wilderness Lodge. From there we headed down to Mgazinga National Park and I spent two awesome days hanging out with the Batwas ( pygmies) and the mountain gorillas. Mount Gazings Lodge where I stayed was very nice and very conveneiently located to the trail head for the gorillas. ( unlike what I heard about Bwindi, it was an easy hike to find them). My driver/guide Twa ( Lukwago Twaha) was first class in every way. I spent the entire time with him as he drove me from park to park and acted as guide in many of the locations. He is very experienced and knows all the details about the parks, lodgings and the animals. He has a great sense of humor and we laughed many times over the 12 days I was with him. He really tries to make your experience enjoyable by taking you to the best places to spot wildlife. Because he has so much experience, he knows the other guides and he calls them when out on the game drives and they tell each other where animals are located, so you can drive right over and see them rather than randomly trying to find them. He even saved me from a huge rampaging baboon, haha. (While waiting for a boat trip on the Nile, I foolishly tried to show I thought how to drink from a coke bottle and it went after me. Twa ran at it to distract it so it chased him instead. He ran like lightening to escape its nasty claws. The other guides were there waiting too and they started laughing and yelling " Usain Bolt!" As he flew by with the baboon on his heels. I would give Wild Jungle Safaris a rating of 5 out of a highest possible score of 5 on every level. I did everything I wanted to on the trip and it was much better than I thought it would be. Book with them!

Go with Kenan and you won't regret.
My mother and I booked an 11-day Kenya safari with Kenan. We had a perfect experience from the planning stage to end of the trip. Geophrey helped us choose lodges/camps and give us suggestion on itinerary to meet our need. He was very helpful and patient. Jane and our driver/guide Paul welcomed us at the airport when we arrived. Then we began the trip. Our Safari was fabulous. Paul was an expert. He did his best to make sure we can see everything. And we really did. We saw the big five, many cheetahs, and other animals that I didn't expect to see, such as vulture and eagles. What is more, he knows photography. He could always find the best spot for us to take pictures. At the end of the trip, Geophrey also went to the airport to say goodbye to us. Again, we had a wonderful trip and we highly recommend Kenan to everyone who wants to do a safari in Kenya.

Our group had a really good time and were well looked after
We were picked up on time from our hostel in Dar Es Salaam and accompanied us on our journey to Mikuni. It took about 5hrs to get there, including a stop in a service station for breakfast. When we arrived we were given lunch and then headed out for the safari. The jeeps were very comfortable and our guides were very knowledgeable. We stayed in a motel that night and started back on safari early next morning. We were very lucky to see a lion attack a zebra right in front of our truck. The rest of our safari was great and the journey back flew by. We were really well looked after by everyone, and it was a very reasonable trip. 10/10 would recommend to a friend

Good service for low budget safaris
We had a 6-day safari in Masai Mara national park, Nakuru, Naivasha (hell's gate) and mt Longonot. We enjoyed every destination and the budget accommodation we spent the nights in. Even if we had been told that in our van the maximum number of people would have been 7, we were 8 during some days of the tour. It wasn't such a big problem because we were all young and friendly, but it wasn't properly what we were expecting.
Cyrus, our dear driver, we are gonna miss you man! He is a polite guide, always willing to do his best to make your safari unforgettable. He was the first to wake up, and the last to drop you off at the camping! Thanks to him we managed to see all the big five and many wildlife rare scenarios! Even more than we were expecting!
To conclude, we recommend them! Please just have clear in mind all your itinerary because sometimes they seem to forget it!

Amazing 4 day at Kruger
Ryan was a great guide. He exceeded our expectation. We are a family of five, youngest 13 year old. He answered almost all our question and we had many. Wealth of information. Ryan was prompt and very attentive to our needs. Thale cooking was wonderful, second helping was the norm. We saw more than we could imaging, even a rare white lion. Highly recommended

A driver guide can make a safari trip be amazing: Wnjau (Animal) is just great!
The experience of 7 days of safari has been very positive, we have enjoyed it a lot and we had a great time. The only thing we did not like is that water was included in the price of the safari and we didn't see those bottles arrive, it seems that no one had them. They only gave us 3 litres for 2 people for the whole week ... Everything else perfect, very happy!
