Thank you Carol!
If you want timely communication, humour, honesty, attentiveness, and the best safari tour and accommodation there is, book with Carol! She's not afraid to get exactly what she wants from the safari guides so that you can have the greatest experience and has so much experience under her belt so she knows what to expect in every detail. She also makes everything so fun and her laugh is so contagious! Thank you for putting your all into my safari in Uganda, I'll never forget it!

We waited 6 years to track mountain gorillas and the experience was worth the wait...
My son and I traveled with Paul and Inter-Tropical Tours in the past and our previous trip was so well-planned and enjoyable that we promised to return to Uganda to track mountain gorillas when my son turned 15. It was worth every second of the 6 year wait! Five members of our family traveled to Uganda on what we considered to be a trip of a lifetime and Paul, Inter-Tropical Tours and the mountain gorillas didn't disappoint. We visited Lake Mburo, Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks as well as Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. We saw every animal that we wanted to see, including a beautiful leopard on the morning of my husband's birthday! What a birthday gift! The lodges were all luxurious and the food was beautifully plated and delicious. The happy, smiling locals were friendly and kind and catered to our every need and want. Paul is a safe driver and we always felt cared-for in his capable hands. There is absolutely nothing that I would have changed on our trip. Uganda has a special place in our hearts and I will be forever grateful to Paul and the lovely Ugandan people for an experience that my family will never forget!

First time To the Kruger.
We selected Wildlife Safaris because of the quick and efficient response from Christine Duxbury.
The tour was amazing. Everything well organized, lodging, meals, transport.Our guide Sue was a
total mine of information she made the whole tour a pleasant and relaxed time (even the 5 am starts).
We were collected from Johanesburg south and went to Kruger via the panoramic route which made
the start of the tour fantastic to see the beauty of South Africa.

Great experience
I definitely recommend ilmaasai as a tour operator. Great service before and on the trip: Highly responsive, always willing to help us to make the best arrangements according to our needs and wishes. We changed our plan several times and Loth always stayed friendly and helpful. The car was not the newest, but ok and reliable. Our driver Brycon and Oman as our cook ("stomach engineer") did a great job: Brycon has a lot of interesting stories to tell about animals and nature, and was very successful in spotting animals. Oman made great food for us at night. We stay at Camp Lilac, which was a very good choice.

Great personalized serviceeven came to meet me to sign disclosure agreements
Surprisingly, we had a personal guide. We upgrade our accom at a minor upchsrge. The time spent with them was phenomenal. I'd highly recommend using them.
Only criticism is that when we where on the way to Murchison falls we where on what I considered to be a public transport.
Other than that extraordinary. Do it.

Nairobi, Amboseli, and Masai Mara
We needed help setting up a week in Kenya and John with CKC tours delivered. We wanted to attend a family wedding in Nairobi and then see the beautiful parks in Kenya without breaking the bank and we couldn't have been happier with the service and accommodations that John set up for us. We arranged our own air travel to Nairobi and John was there with Julius to pick us up. We stayed at the Nairobi Serena Hotel while in Nairobi and really enjoyed the hotel and found the staff and the restaurants quite good. Julius, our guide and driver while in Nairobi was excellent and had a wonderful knowledge of the city. Because our time was limited, John arranged for us to fly on Air Kenya to both of our lodge experiences. Our first flight was to Amboseli where we stayed at the Serena Lodge. The accommodations were lovely, the park was truly amazing and the the food was very good. We were well cared for the entire time. After 2 nights there we flew back to Nairobi and then on to the Masai Mara. We really loved the Masai Mara! The views were spectacular and the wildlife was amazing. The lodge was top notch! (But be careful around the baboons!) John was so easy to work with! With his help we were able to have such a wonderful and memorable trip. I can't recommend his services enough!

Very experienced, very caring, wonderful trips every time
I have travelled to Uganda several times with my daughters and friends and always choose Gorilla Link Tours to help us decide the best itinerary and to make the bookings - they have been the perfect Tour Operator every time. Their staff know everything about tourism in Uganda - not just in theory but they have sampled most of the locations and many of the lodges/camps. Whatever the interest and budget of the group, they have arranged the perfect tour. They are especially talented at getting gorilla tracking permits when these are hard to come by - and at short notice! Nothing is too much for them and while trip is underway, they are working 24/7 behind the scenes making sure everything is running smoothly. So I never have to worry about anything and can just enjoy my time in this fabulous country.
