Life changing experience
I was apprehensive about traveling alone but Gorilla Tours were always there to answer any questions I had they organised all my ground transport, the accommodation was fabulous and I always felt safe. The drive to the Bwindi National Park was long but my driver was accommodating stopping so I could take photos and meet the locals. This is an amazing life experience that I will forever be grateful for, I would recommend it to anyone and really hope to go again one day. I would totally recommend Gorilla Tours.

A Perfect South Africa Vacation with Pembury Tours
Everything just went perfectly from planning to final itinerary to actual tours! Thank Laurette for her wonderful service. She is extremely responsive and flexible. Within one and two emails, she adjusted standard package to meet our requirements and acted on it quickly based on our preference (good camp is often gone quickly). Laurette was also very friendly and followed through everything we discussed in the emails. She proactively shared all necessary information, such as how to prepare the trip, safety tips and give us advice. We enjoyed our tour in Cape Town very much! it was exactly what we were looking for! V&A hotel was great too! The candle lights experience in Notten camp was unique! We not only saw big five in three days, but also saw baby lions, baby giraffe, baby Reno, it was just amazing! The transportation arrangements were very smooth which made very easy for our traveling. We definitely recommend Pembury tour and Laurette to anyone!

Marvelous experience
Though we spent only an hour with the gorilla family, it was a perfect experience. Our family was the "good family," with two silver backs, a couple "teens," mom and a sister, and a baby not quite a year old. It took only an hour of trekking for us to reach our family in the dense forest. And the Gorilla Valley Lodge with its' magnificent views made "gorillas in the midst" come alive. I also stayed at the lodge where the author of "Gorillas in the Midst" did her note taking and relaxing. Another perfect setting, with a lodge that had a bar, a fire place, and a lodge dog that was very friendly. Took the Batwa Trail, and loved the sights. And, finally, the folks at the Travelers' Lodge near the airport were more than accommodating, with an evening dinner on the lawn in the courtyard. The guide/driver was charming and I loved driving through Uganda and taking photos of these charming people. All this at an affordable price.

We had a great time on an 8 day safari across Kenya and Tanzania. The 2 guides we had were awesome, very knowledgeable and accomodating.

Impossible to have been any better!
Gorilla Tours was exceptional in its communication, friendliness, and quality. The tour was tailored exactly to our needs and requests. The lodge was among the best places I have ever stayed. The jeep was clean and in perfect condition. When my wife casually mentioned she would like to see baby gorillas, our guide, Ronald, made sure to get us into a group that had had recent births. Though we expected to hike a little to see the gorillas, we were face to face with them within about 10 minutes. Our proximity to them and the photo opportunities were beyond anything we could have imagined... literally a few meters from us. We spent the rest of the day exploring the countryside and meeting the local farmers and villagers in the valley which was wonderful. I give the highest recommendation to Gorilla Tours.

The most amazing experience from booking to the trip itself
From inception, my experience was great. Giada was my travel agent and she tailored my trip to perfectly match my tastes. There were different types of accommodation provideo yet all of a high standard. The safaris were amazing and I saw most of the big 5. All in all a fantastic milestone birthday vacation well executed and enjoyed! I would recommend KrugerPark.com without reservation and Giada in particular.

Tours of Serengeti, Zanzibar, Bagamoyo, and Dar es Salaam
We used Usambara to guide our class of 25 students studying abroad in Tanzania for 3 months. We used Usambara for tours around Bagamoyo, Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, and a 4 night stint through the Serengeti. We had Alex and Zechariah as our guides. Both were exceedingly helpful, courteous, knowledgable, aware of risks, and sensitive to foreigners' needs. Both were extremely generous with their time and went above the call of duty to make sure we were comfortable.

Wal-Mark offers me value for money, friendly drivers, always on time.
I have been using Wal-Mark Safaris since 2009 during my official trips to Uganda. Airport transfers and field travel have always been a great experience; the drivers are friendly and very informative. I have ever missed a flight or delayed to be picked from the airport.
In October 2016I changed employers and I introduced my new colleagues to Wal-Mark Safaris, it was a sigh of relief after departure from unprofessional services there before.
I would recommend Wal-Mark Safaris to any one travelling to Uganda on official business.
Keep up the good service Wal-Mark!

It is hard to conceive that the service and knowledge of the area could get any better.
I was apprehensive about the Tour for many reasons, but from the very start, I was put at ease and enjoyed the entire experience. This was due to the Guides always being on time, have knowledge of the area and processes, and their general respect and courtesy. Outstanding!!!
