More perfect than I could have hoped
My experience with this company was very good. Me and my friend did a 4day safari trip trough tarangire park, ngorongoro and serengeti. We never went camping in our lives so we tried it for the first time. All the camping places were very nice and the tent was big enough for the both of us. Our chef ‘ Action’ made the best food ever. Every morning, noon and evening he did his very best to make us happy. He listened to the fact that I’m vegetarian and he always prepared extra vegetables. There is nothing to complain about. He’s also a nice and helpful person. Our driver, Florid did his best to show us the big 5 and he achieved it! Every morning he woke up happy and took us to the best places. He knew we were two girls who like to take insta pictures so he stopped everywhere and showed us the right spots. He did his very very best for everything we asked. Every question we had about animals he was able to answer it. You could clearly see he knew what he was talking about.
The whole trip was very well planned. We had to leave early because of our flight and there was a taxi ready on time.
This experience was better than what I expected. I would recommend everyone this trip and if possible ask for florid as a driver and Action as a chef.
Big thanks to Hilary, Florid and Action for everything.

Amazing experience with an amazing group of guides and porters.
Really amazing experience for the money. Climbed mount kenya successfully in 4 days. The guides and porters at Hyrax safaris catered to my every need and were super friendly. Truly an amazing experience and I would defiantly recommend this service!

Very professionall and serviceminded, catering for our needs
We had a wonderful weekend in Kibale Forest, where we met our relatives, the Chimpanzees. Maleng travel provided us with a travel itinerary customized to our needs. We were met at the morning of the start of our trip both by our Tour guide and the founder Tony. We had a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide on our trip. The safari car and the tour guide we were provided with, made sure we had a pleasant drive from Entebbe to Kibale Forest.
Because of the pandemic, there are many things to think about these days. .Maleng travel and Tony not only helped us by giving us a very well organized weekend of Chimpaneez trekking, but also gave us information and guidance regarding the current entry restrictions for travel to Uganda. We really enjoyed our trip, and recommend using Maleng Travel!

Amazing Safari Experience with Kajie
I just came back from a 16 days Safari tour in Uganda with the local tour operator Kajie Safaris
The communication with Ronald Muvunyi - managing director- was from the first day excellent. Ronald is easily accessible and flexible. The program was custom made and changes were possible where needed. The necessary COVID test were very well organized. Ronald gave good advice in time before the journey about all necessary paperwork and waited for me at the Airport. He was also very helpful during the whole process entering the country.
All the accommodations were were wisely chosen, comfortable, clean and had a nice atmosphere with excellent friendly staff.
Ronald has a wide network, connections, informations were exchanged easily.
During the tour we used a powerful vehicle with open roof to get the best view during the game drive. Unavoidable engine problems were solved quickly and without negative effect on the program.
The food was tasteful, clean everywhere and personal dietary wishes were taken into account.
Ronald is an enthousiast service oriented professional driver, guide , friendly and has a huge knowledge about his land, the wildlife, customs, history. That makes him a pleasant travel companion.
I recommend to visit Uganda to every nature lovers , as it really deserves it’s name : The Pearl of Afrika

What an amazing adventure!
Because of the Covid situation our decision to go to Uganda for 2 weeks in November was pretty spontaneous. Without Axel from Across Africa we would have never been able to organize and book this trip so quickly and easily. He was always on stand by and gave us helpful tips. We decided on a self-drive tour, which surely was an adventure but we never regretted it.
The country is beautiful and so green, just incredible.
We felt safe at all times and have never met such friendly people anywhere else.
The gorilla tracking was our highlight, we still cannot find the right words to describe it! It was an unique experience which we will remember for the rest of our lives.
We had so many amazing experiences in those two weeks, especially when it comes to the animals we got to see, e. g. giraffes, buffaloes and elephants. Another highlight was the chimpanzee habituation which we would have never done if it wasn’t for Axel. We are glad that we could to spend half a day with this amazing guide.
The food was delicious and every special request was fulfilled. Everybody was always so eager and we did feel welcome and comfortable at all times.
Thanks again to Axel from Across Africa for the amazing organization, the great tips and for answering all our questions so patiently.

Excellent tour operator
We did a private safari tour for our honeymoon and I must say this was one of the BEST experiences ever! I could write an entire book about this experience. From the itinerary, communication, accommodation to the game drives. First, Lilian's recommendations were beyond anything we could have thought of. She was really accomodating and friendly. She made adjustments per our requests. She made you feel welcome and made you feel like you've known her for a while. She even provided tips for us well after we left the safari on our trip to different parts of Tanzania. We really appreciated that. She was very quick with replies.
Now our tour guide, Ahmed. I cannot say enough about him. He is hands down the best guide ever! He was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us an amazing time. The safari trip from beginning to end went without a single issue. He was hilarious, we had a lot of laughs and adventures. We truly lucked out when we were assigned, Ahmed. He was not only an outstanding guide with a knack for spotting wildlife but a great person that we now consider a friend. He made you feel comfortable. I truly believe Ahmed made our experience that much better and to a whole different level. We were never bored at any point of the trip. He was really accomodating to all our needs. He was proactive in finding the "rare" to spot animals. I would highly recommend him to anyone planning on going on this tour. In my opinion, your tour guide determine how well the trip goes and Ahmed made sure we had a blast. My wife and I were happy he was with us.
Let's not forget the most important thing why we went on this trip, the great migration and the wildlife. During our trip, Ahmed made sure we saw all the Big 5 and the great migration! Saw other wildlife of course. It's an incredible feeling being "up close and personal" with these animals in the wild. To see their behavior and how they are was definitely a bucket-list item. I wish we had enough time to have seen the wildebeest crossing the mara river. This is likely the next adventure on the list is to see that.
We want to say a big thank you to the Zohar team and everyone involved in making this an incredible experience, especially Ahmed.
