Grand safari adventure
Overall we were very happy with our family vacation with Home to Africa tours and travel. It was planned according to our wishes and we saw, experienced and tasted more than we had ever hoped for (thank you for the unexpected, fantastic birthday and graduation cakes!). The parks, treckings, animals, people, markets, scenery, food and experiences were all wonderful, not to mention the rafting. The lodgings were at times a bit simpler than we'd hoped for but worked out for us anyway.
Our guide was very knowledgeable regardless whether it came to animals, history, agriculture, nature, politics, really anything. Unfortunately he was short tempered with little patience and at times put a damper on the atmosphere.
All in all we are very happy with our trip to Uganda and have managed to raise a lot of interest from friends and colleagues.

Superb service, amazing Kenya
We are a family with a child of 11 and travelled in Kenya with Wildlife Sun Safaris for 14 days at the end of June. Although it is a low season, the weather was sunny without rains, very pleasant. The tour was very busy. Nairobi - Masai Mara - Naivasha - Nakuru - Bogoria - Nairobi - Amboseli - Tsavo West - Tsavo East - Diani Beach - Nairobi. We made our tour plan by ourselves based on the example tours at their website. James was prompt to reply to all our emails and the price for the tour was quite reasonable. He personally met us at the airport, in the middle of our trip, and before departure. He organized the tour very well. Our personal driver – Toya - was always polite, precise, and executed the itinerary with no faults. We had a 4x4 Toyota minivan. It is OK on good road and off-road. However, there are some roads under construction. Especially, if you go to Masai Mara you have to drive about 1.5 hour on washboard road. Here we wished we had a heavy Landcruiser. It is more comfortable, but more expensive too. This was our choice. We had an excellent journey and Kenya is really amazing. Don't hesitate to take children with you. It is a safe and comfortable country for the tourists. I was surprised to see no insects. Leisure at Diani beach was the right thing after 10-days safari. Get ready to meet many local people that sell things at beach. Swimming in the ocean is a challenge. We had everything we wanted in this tour. And it was gracefully done by Wildlife Sun Safaris. Many thanks to James and Toya.

Tailored to each client's needs and wants like they read your mind
Mr Kennedy is available 24/7..he responds to emails immediately. He helped and guided us very well. Mara Sopa was just beautiful and was beyond our expectations. Since went during the peak season we saw all the big five..saw lioness with her cubs and Cheetahs eating their catch and masai River crossing was epic and was worth the 1hr wait. Our driver Joseph was the best. It was a lifetime experience for us and a game meat at carnivore is must on ur way back in Nairobi.

Awesome experience
Duncan was a great guide. He knew exactly where to be and when to be there. We only had one morning to see some animals because of our schedule and we saw so many in just a few hours. His knowledge of the area and animals was tremendous. I highly recommend using him for your safari and tour. Thank you for a great experience.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
We were met at the airport when we arrived in Victoria Falls and the one on one attention and hospitality never stopped from there. Our schedule was really busy and we ended up making a few changes here and there at the last minute and Patrick made every accommodation necessary without any problems. Our guide to the falls, Polite, was amazing and so knowledgeable about everything. We felt we were given such a better and in depth tour than others around us with their guides. A trip to the local village in Zambia with Esau was great and well worth it. Knowing that every time we had an outing and that Patrick was there to see us off and make sure the driver was briefed and transfers, tickets or anything else was taken care of was really nice. It made the trip so personalized and different that the other tours offered. We would recommend Jibha and do it all over again in a heartbeat!

An experience of a lifetime!
My friend and I travelled a 5 days 4 nights circuit through lake manyara, ngorogoro, serengeti and tarangirr using mercury travels, and we were very satisfied with the experience. Our guide, Stewart, was a total pro at his job, and was almost always among the first to get to the spots where lions, cheetas and leopards recided. In addition, not once did we break a wheel on the whole trip. One truly appreciates this feat, after having driven past several vehicles that had to stop in the middle of the savannah to change wheels or wait for assistance. His driving was really top notch, and I must say that this turned out to be one of the top priorities in hindsight. In addition to this, he could answer almost all questions we had about the animals, and otherwise had a good set of books to fill in the blanks. The sleeping facilities were fine for the budget, with nice sleeping mattresses and warm sleeping bags. Also, the owner of mercury went the extra mile to get us to our hotel a bit outside of Arusha, and we appreciated the service. I would definately recommend Mercury tours for anyone wanting to go on a safe, professional safari!

Safari was an incredible experience for us and especially sleeping in a tent in the Serengeti National Park.
Everything was great and we enjoyed adventure.
Thank you very much for the entire organization, all the praise for the cook who filled our wishes and of course the big greeting and thank you for Frank(driver). He taught us how nature worked and explained to us everything that we were interested in. He took care of everything and we enjoyed it.

Amazing safaritrip with Ezekiel to Tarangire and Ngorongoro
At the end of July, I went with the guide Ezekiel and a group for a two day safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro. It was EPIC. We saw very rare events like, leopards and cup eating a gazelle, fighting and making out monkeys. The tentcamp was also nice with dance acts, campfire and dance acts. The next day we went to Ngorongoro were we had the most amazing views and saw a lot of wildlife. Lunch we had at a pool full of Hippos. Afterwards, we stopped at a nice site were we had an amazing view over Lake Manyara. Very good safari.

Absolutely loved it - 8 day Lemosho Route
We took the 8 day Lemosho route. Enosa is not one of the larger tour operators which means that you are traveling in a smaller group. We were four (father son and two brothers from another tour operators) and had a support staff of 17. Great guides: Danny, Brighton, Great cook: Walter, Great Waiter: J4 and the porters. They made the climb possible for us.
