Good
I just picked a 7days lodge safari with Africa wise safaris. I am happy to say that I was extremely lucky to go with this company. From the beginning of our conversation, everything went smoothly. Kelvin responded very quickly to all of my emails and I was very much satisfied for his great helpful information and advices. The safari was very amazing. My Guide Elisante was very knowledgeable, friendly and charming guide. He knows a lot about the bush. He showed me almost everything I wanted to see. Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro crater and Lake manyara were all beautiful wildernesses with different unique contents. I saw Elephants, Giraffes, Lions, Impalas, buffaloes, Cheetah etc even Rhino in Ngorongoro Crater. Accommodation plus meals at Country Lodge, Halisi Tented Camp and Ilboru lodge in Arusha were perfect. I will always recommend this Company for any traveler looking for life-affirming experiences. Thanks Kelvin and the team for organizing a wonderful safari!!!!!!

Very professional company, excellent safari experience
They are very responsive to requests for information. We went back and forth quite a bit refining our itinerary and they were very helpful in finding the right fit for us.
The safari itself was well planned and conducted. We had a comfortable car with a good driver to take us around. Everything went as planned because the logistics of all the tours and overnight locations were figured out by them. The cost of the safari is substantial but it includes accommodation, meals, car and driver, which also seems reasonable.
The safari itself was fantastic. All the trips were well guided by professionals and the wildlife was fantastic. It is amazing that they can pretty much guarantee that you'll get the experience you're looking for-- tracking chimps and gorillas, seeing lions in trees, etc. The best experience is the gorilla tracking... it's a challenging hike but the landscape and the gorillas make up for it.
The countryside drives to and from the destinations are also excellent. We drove from Entebbe to Kibale (for chimps), then QENP (for savanna safari) and then to Bwindi (for gorillas). It's a good way to see the landscape changes and the life of the locals. Overall, the safari was excellent.

Unexpected Uganda. Nature, Safari and much more
I didn't expect to find Uganda so fascinating.
It was a while that me and my husband were planning this trip and I have to say that Destination Jungle was just the perfect solution. Every day our driver and guide took care of our tour and explain to us what we would have seen and done. He was also very flexible with our expectation that were pretty high. I had a wonderful experience and I would recommend to all to join this tour to celebrate nature and appreciate our earth.

Once in a lifetime adventure
Our experience with Lion King was perfect. Anna was great and helped us to organize a trip specified to our wants. We enjoyed every aspect of the safari and felt taken care of every step of the way. The lodges and tented camps (more like glamping than actually camping!) that Anna picked for us were everything she promised.
Our guide and driver, James, went above and beyond for us, truly making the trip.
Our only regret is that we did not stay longer!

Holiday of a lifetime
I spent a considerable amount of time researching our Africa holiday only to find that I felt confused by all the information on the internet. Then I spoke with Encompass Africa! From the moment I emailed and then chatted with Jono on the phone I knew we were going to be well looked after. We are a well travelled family however planning a trip to Africa was a different experience for us and Jono made it all seem so easy. He was wonderful with our kids and he gave them great information to manage their knowledge and expectations about being on safari. We had the most amazing holiday because Encompass Africa listened to us and they understood what we wanted from our holiday. When we were in Africa everything went smoothly and the contacts Encompass Africa have on the ground are so professional and most importantly so warm and friendly. Our holiday was the most wonderful experience for our family. We had the most amazing guide (we miss him!), the accommodation was fantastic and as we expected, the food amazing and plentiful, and the wildlife was incredible because Encompass Africa knew where we needed to be at the time of year we were travelling to see the wildlife. I would definitely book another holiday with Encompass Africa and recommend them highly.

Amazing!. Reception,timing attention to detail was more than we could expect. A wonderful experience
The communication waz great with so much attention to detail. The service is compared to none. I've been to other destinations with different agents but this was by far the best. You deserve 5 stars. Frankly my expectations were average but the guys at Tropical were amazing and exceeded my expectations. The safari was great,you guys have an amazingly beautiful country . Such a shame it's not very well marketed. Please get somebody to fix a few roads and traffic

very reliable with good travel info and quick reponses to our queries
Tammy Harding was our travel consultant from Pembury Tours. She provided great advice about the travel options we could explore and was responsive to both the timing and cost of these proposed options.
She got back to us without fail within 1-2 days of receiving every one of our e-mails.
The accommodation booked at Victoria Falls, Hazyview, and Sabi Sands suited our needs and our budget and made our trip all that more memorable.

Awesome experience!
I booked a 4 day safari with Sunny Safaris for a group of 6 people and we absolutly loved it. They were extremely communicative in our emails, cleared up all our questions and explained how everything worked with very fast replies. We were picked up at the airport and left right away for the agency to pay the rest of the safari. There we were welcomed by the employees, briefed on how the whole plan was set and how things would go. Everyday we got a lunch box with plenty of food for the whole day, the lodges we stayed at were amazing and our guide (named Hassan) was super awesome and nice. So I highly reccomend this agency for an amazing safari experience!!
