Tony Mobile Safaris is totally recomended, the guys made our trip to a very special.
I'd never thought, that we see so much wildlife, nature and meet such nice guys. Everything was very fine, we would do this Safari every time again.

A fabulous time with Safarihub
We just returned home from an amazing 16 days with Safarihub in Tanzania
Our safari guide, Emmilian, was beyond incredible: an engaging personality, extremely knowledgeable about the animals, astounding at being able to spot them, always knew where to locate the vehicle for the best views and the best light. In addition to the animals everyone sees, we saw SIX rhinos, 9 cheetahs (including one actually taking down a gazelle), 4 leopards--and 2 huge wildebeest crossings of the Mara River. Every evening, we talked about how to schedule the next day--and it was a combination of what he knew would work and the way we liked to arrange our days. I had very few expectations about seeing birds, but Emmilian's love of them was contagious, and I ended up really loving the birds.
In Zanzibar, our guide (Zamir) was also a delight: charming and very, very knowledgeable about the spice farm we toured and the history of Zanzibar.
i loved every single moment of it .

Wonderful safari in a private vehicle at good price
I did the safari when I known little about Kenya. But I only needed to give expectation and timing then they shorly designed the great program. Knowlege about conservation and nature protection is advantage of the tour operator as I you really learn about the wild life. Up to now, it was one of my most memorable trips

Our 10 days safari was so well organised, and our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly!!!!!!
Kwanza tours was very very helpful for us during the safari planning days. They responded quickly and answered all of our questions. They were also responsive while we were in the beautiful country Uganda :-)
Wildlife in Queen Elizabeth national park, Chimp tracking in Kibale and gorilla tracking in Bwindi impenetrable forest were absolutely amazing.
The safari accommodations were very nice!, the food at the safari lodges were very delicious! We were very happy and comfortable the entire safari time. We had unforgetable safari. We will be using Kwanza tours again!

TRULY INTERESTING EXPERIENCE
The tour has been very well organised, we got all the necessary info before leaving. On site we found 2 great guides (Ali and Mau) who gave us lots of explanations and has been very friendly. We were lucky enough to see all the big 9! The accommodation in the lodges and tent camps has been as expected, clean and very well organised, very good food (good variety and choice). It was our first safari, our expectations have been met. One of our cars had an accident so we had to stay all in one for half a day but we were able to continue our tour without missing any parts (poor Ali had to work hard on the car!).
many thanks, a great holiday!|

This trip was excellent and surpassed our expectations.
The attention provided by Isaac - our guide - was excellent at any time, he was very clear in his way of communicating and answered all our questions. The Lenchada camp was very good to, very good services provided by the staff. The hotel at the lake Nakuru was also great.
The only thing we were a bit disappointed about was that at the lake Nakuru, there were hardly any animals, except for a few rhinos, it is advertised as a bird paradise and there were none. If this was due to the season it would be a good idea to let people who book then know what is to be expected. Between going there and back we spent 8 hours driving and saw practically nothing.
The highlight was definitely Masai Mara.

Excellent Staff and Arrangements, Responds to eMails, Highly Recommended
I planned the entire trip with Chris over the email. He responded promptly to all questions. To reduce my cost, I paid in cash (a mix of $s, Rwanda Francs, and Uganda Shillings) at the start of the 3D/2N Gorilla Safari. I was picked up promptly from Kigali and brought over to the border where my guide/driver Steven picked me up and we continued to the Rushaga Gorilla Heaven Lodge where I stayed for 2 nights. First day was relaxation. Second day we started early and left for Bwindi NP where Steven arranged the easiest trek for me. The trek was [still] arduous [for me] and would have been better to have a porter who can carry your stuff as well as assist on the rough terrain. All of us slipped and fell several times over but that was part of the fun too! However, to their credit, all the staff on the trek were very helpful. Seeing Gorillas in their natural habitat was a magical experience. Since we were given the easiest trek, we were back by 11:30 AM, while many other groups hadn't even reached their assigned Gorilla family. Rest of that day was relaxation and on the final day, we started early and after lunch and stopover at Equator, we were in Kampala by 5 PM. Steven was very helpful, professional, and well-known to all. He answered all my questions and was knowledgeable.
This was a very enjoyable, relaxed and slow-paced safari. I highly recommend Encounter Africa Safaris to all - they did a great job!
One improvement suggestion: please include coffee as well as cold-drink as part of the lunch on the third day.

We have used Advanced Tours and Travel over the past 10 years for various travel
Communications are timely , thorough and detailed . Service has been above expected , even early in the morning or late at night . No problem too big for Advanced. Even when problems arise ( which they often seem to do during East African Travel ) they have been handled calmly and efficiently , with the ultimate goal being getting the client to where they need to be. I wont use anyone else for my travel needs , or my friends and family.
