We had a fantastic trip!
Thank you to Saso Uganda Safari! Our family of four had a great trip to Murchison Falls. Our guide looked after us very well and we had a wonderful time.

Nice customer service, correct communication, friendly hosting, professional guide
We were more than happy with the services. They were on time, they did what we agreed, no surprises, no hidden charges. The guide was excellent, nice personality, and professional, with a very deep experience of salaries.

Wild life adventures East Africa (Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya)
In nov/ dec '16 we travelled with Grassrootz to Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya. Before booking we had intensive contact with Sander to ensure that this trip would be exactly what we wanted. And it really was!
George our driver was the best! We truly worked as a team, as he did his best to ensure that we had the best time possible. He provided us with so much information on both the wild life as on Ugandan history.
We stayed in basic banda's as well as in more luxurious lodges. The basic banda's have all the essentials, provided that the electricity and water works. But off course as this is Africa, some times either or both of them are simply not working. All the accommodations had friendly and helpful staff.
We deviated a bit from our original travel agenda due to the fact there was a small issue in the Rwenzori region. This was done in mutual agreement, and gave us a chance to include a visit to the Rhino sanctuary and Kampala.
All and all we were really happy with our trip, with our driver and Grassrootz overall. We would recommend them to anyone who wants to travel through East Africa.

Excellent experience - highly recommend them
I booked an 8 day safari with Crystal Safaris November 25 – December 2, 2016 as a solo traveler. I am a retiree with 33 years as a travel industry professional and I could not have been more impressed. From my first contact with Barbara she was very responsive answering all of my questions and creating an adventure that met all of my requests. She showed a great deal of patience and professionalism as I had to make numerous changes over the course of our correspondence. From the moment Jonah, my guide/driver picked me up at the airport everything was taken care of and the trip not just met, but exceeded, my expectations.
During the 8 days I was also lucky enough to stay at 2 of the lodges owned by them, the Gorilla Safari Lodge near Bwindi and the Crater Safari Lodge near Kibale. The locations and accommodations were first class and the staff of both lodges made me feel pampered.
I would not hesitate to book with them again or to recommend them with full confidence.

Thrilling experience
It was an amazing experience. We visited Maasi Mara, Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Hells gate. I joined different groups with different drivers. Dennis,James and Mike and should a great deal of commitment and care.
I believe what it actually differentiates Axis Africa from other companies is the level of professionalism and commitment they showed. Putting customers convenience first. I would definitely like to do business with them in the future.

mostly reliable!!
Doing a gorilla tracking was one of the main reasons travelling to Uganda. The communication with Encounter Africa Safaris was just perfect. Prompt responses to all our questions, very flexible with our wishes, easy online-payment system through credit card and mostly reliable. Die Broadbill Camp in Bwindi which was included in the package was a great place to stay.
We would highly recommend this agency (run by ugandans!!)

Wow what a great trip!
We would greatly recommend this company to others. Thinus was very knowledgeable, resourceful and accommodating. His good humor and personal story were also a plus. His choice of lodges and itinerary maximized our group comfort and ability to experience the flora and fauna of Namibia,Botswana and Vic falls.

Probably our best holiday ever
After watching numerous wildlife documentaries on TV we decided it was time to see Africa for ourselves.
We found several companies on line who appeared to be able to offer a complete tailor made booking service. After talking to several them we decided to book with Safari Club, as the consultant seemed to have personally visited most of the game reserves and lodges and her knowledge and advice was incredibly helpful.
Safari Club proved to be an excellent choice as everything worked like clockwork from the meet and greet service at the airport, to lunch on our final day in Nairobi.
As we had ten nights available our consultant suggested visiting three different and contrasting areas - Lewa Downs, Amboseli and the Masai Mara. This was a great choice as there was so much to do and see we never had a dull moment.
The service and quality of the safari camps that were recommended to us easily exceeded our expectations and the wildlife was amazing. On one day we saw four of the “Big Five” plus a cheetah mother with three small cubs that were incredibly cute.
When can we go again?

Big 5 became Big 7 !
We selected Wildlife Safaris because of the quick and efficient response from Christine Duxbury.
The tour was amazing. Everything well organized, lodging, meals, transport.
But it was Hoppy who made us happy. Because of his sharp eye and his knowledge of where to find the animals according to the weatherconditions of the day, we saw so many different animals.
Lots of beautifull birds and the Big 5 plus the extra 2 ( wild dogs and cheetah).Fun and laughter on top of that in our group made it an unforgettable trip. Thx Hoppy!
