It was a great experience in a beautiful nature and with very kindly and polite people.
We had a very extraordinary experience in Kenia and we are very happy that we made a Safari tour because we got so many impressions which we will never forget. We was and we are very satisfied with the organisation Papa Musili Safaris. The tour itself was very good because we have seen so many animals like elephants, giraffes, zebras, lions and a leopard. It was also a beautiful nature and we visited three different national parks and all of them have their own atmosphere. I want to mention that the camps were perfect. The food and the "tents" were very beautiful and we felt very comfortable. The best was the last one, Severin Safari Camp and we wanted to be there for more than one night. Our idea of improvement is, to be in this camp at least two nights so that you can enjoy the beautiful landscape and the comfortable rooms.
We were and are very happy and grateful that we had such a good and friendly driver on our tour. Sammy was a perfect driver and he was very courteous from the beginning until the end of our holiday trip. Moreover the trip to the family, to cook with, was a very nice evening. All people werde very friendly. All in all it was a very good safari tour and we are very happy and grateful about the organisation Papa Musili Safaris.

fantastic safari tour with wonderful staffs
When planning for the long-expected safari tour, Alex from All Seasons Safaris and Tours was the most responsive one among the companies I approached; He not only provided detailed program but also quick responded to my specific requests and questions. In the end, the attractive offer and the responsive and professional gesture made me choose their tour for a 7-days safari without hesitation.
The tour proved to be one of the best trips ever. The staff picked me up on time at the airport and delivered me for first night home stay at Alex's house, where they served a nice Kenya dinner and breakfast, with peaceful environment to share some personal stories.
The most exciting day started with a nice breakfast and greetings with other guests and our driver James. Then we headed for Amboseli national park for 2 days, Lake Naivasha for 1 day, and Masai Mara for 4 days. Among all things, I would first appreciate the knowledgeable, experienced, and easy-going friend, our driver James. Firstly, he has profound knowledge not only on animals but also on lots of things. He explained the characteristics and living habits of every animals we encountered, and also told me lots about the origins and history of the local places, tribes, and even the recent socio-political events both in Kenya and worldwide. Secondly, he has driven for more than 10 years and known where and how to find the big animals. For example, when other drivers gathered behind the leopard, he would predict and stop the van at the route of the leopard, so the leopard would pass just in front of our van and I stay so closed to take photo; also he knows the habits of the animals so well, so I had the chance to see the different groups of lions, cheetah, leopard several times.
For the most important part of tour, the tour provided enough time for game drive. for 2 days in Amboseli, we went out for a afternoon and a whole day game drive; for 4 days in Masai Mara, the first morning and the last day were spent on the road commuting between Nairobi and the park, but we still had a afternoon and two whole day game drive.
For the parks I visited, i would recommend Masai Mara first, where you could witness almost all animals, including four of the big five (lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo); in Amboseli, you could see large group of elephant and giraffe. The lodges also surprised me, with fancy cottages and buffet, which broke my stereotype of Africa living condition.
All in all, this safari tour is most memorable and exciting trip, and I cannot wait for next time in summer, and would definitely recommend All Seasons Safaris and Tours to friends who are interested in.

Unique and life changing trip definitely above expectations !
From the very start communicating with Edris via email was easy and reliable. He answered promptly and was very professional, a real testament to the quality of the service at Uzuri Uganda Safaris. We received a detailed itinerary of our trip.
We had very little time, only one week, but the tour was diverse and packed with great activities (game drive, chimpanzee trekking and rafting among others) that made it a lot of fun.
Starting in Kampala we stayed 2 days in Jinja and then headed Murchisson Falls for 3 days. Short but definitely worthwhile thanks to Edris' skillful planning. The choice of lodges was great and the food (all included) was absolutely delicious ! We particularly enjoyed Murchisson River Lodge. In short, everything was perfectly organized, comfortable and very safe.
Our guide Vincent was fantastic, always attentive and a lot of fun, he made sure our trip was memorable !
I definitely recommend Uzuri Uganda Safaris. They made our first experience in Uganda amazing... We will be back !

Amazing!
The safari was amazing! The three day trip trough West Tsavo and Amboseli provided diversity, and three days was sufficient. The lineup was good. I would not change anything about the trip we took.

Memorable holiday experience , thanks to Lians travel Africa
We booked our Safari trip to Kenya thru Lians Travels, it was a great experience from the word go and our host Mrs.Lilian had organized every aspect of our trip immaculately.
We visited Tsavo East , Ambrosalli , Lake Nakaru, Masai mara to finally return to Nairobi
She was there at the airport to personally welcome us when we landed in Nairobi. The Lodges that she had selected were wonderful and right inside the game reserves thereby enabling us to enjoy every moment of our holiday inside the reserves seeing the wonderful animals rather than wasting time on the road. The local guide (Ben) arranged by Lilian was extremely friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and knew all the roads, had a sense of where the animals would be at a given time. The open top Land cruiser organized for our holiday well maintained, clean and comfortable
Lilian went beyond our expectations and her duty, personally helping us thru the streets of Nairobi, bargaining for us at the local Masai market and driving us down to the local restaurants (this was not a part of the iteaniry and we were staying on our own for a few extra days after the safari was over)
She was communicative thru out the finalization of itenery , booking of lodges, staying in touch with us every day that we were staying at the game reserves.
She is extremely trustworthy person and I would highly recommend her to my friends in the future.
Thanks to Lians travel & Mrs Lillian for making our holiday a memorable one.

The most amazing ,life-changing experience
I booked a 3 day tour to go see the gorillas. It has been a childhood dream to see them and Frank tours made it more than I expected. Frank went to so much effort to show, teach and share his experiences with me as we travelled. He is an amazing, warm, friendly and professional man! He communicated with me so well. I really enjoyed the individuality and personalized experience that he brings to his tours. He is also so experienced in the field and everyone along the journey knew him well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Frank for everything! I will be sure to spread the word about your company and highly recommend you. Wishing you every success.

Professional and efficient.
Planning the trip was managed extremely well especially since travel was at a busy time of year and not much notice was given. All communication was by email, responded to promptly and efficiently. Different options were provided along with recommendations based on local experience. Best of all, everything went according to plan and overall result was a stress free trip. I would recommend Discover Africa to my associates and friends.

Incredible Great Bird Watching with Big Five
Since we were interested in birds as well as mammals, our tour guide Danson Karanja who was an excellent commentator taught us about various birds we saw. He knows very well. The most impressed moment was that I could watch the crowned cranes sitting on her eggs!! Danson took us to the point where we can observe the nest of crowned cranes, and spent enough time at the point. We could watch them not only sitting on the eggs but also the parents cranes standing up and fixing the nest with their beaks so we could find eggs below their feet.
If you are planning wildlife observation in Kenya, I would strongly recommend to bring a monocular or binocular. It would make your experience double the pleasure. You can watch birds catching and swallowing lizards or insects clearly which is difficult with the naked eye.
If you are a photographer, don't forget to bring a larger size of memories and reserve battery with you.
