Dreams come true: wonderful experience in Huganda
I started planning a safari to Huganda in February. We planned it between the end of August and the beginning of September 2016. Charles, the president of 1000 shades of green, was very patient to answer every request we made and he was able to customize our perfect 10 nights safari. Moreover he informed us also about visas, vaccinations,... The itinerary was really good and included 2 nights in Murchinson Falls (game drives and boat cruise),2 nights in Kibale national park (to track chimps), 2 nights in Queen Elisabeth National Park (game drives and boat cruise), 2 nights in Bwindi National Park (to track Gorilla), 1 night in lake Mburo National park and the last one in Kampala. All the lodges were perfect, the itinerary planned respected all our expectations. Most of all what really made the holiday a perfect one was the best and more skilled guide we had ever had: Milton! I highly recommend this company!

Good but not exceptional experience.
The communications were good, the service also. All the people in the camp were very kind. However, I could not help being a little bit disappointed by the safari tours, due to a relative scarcity of animals, especially the lack of lions.

Best value, excellent guide, great service
My wife and I had a phenomenal experience with Easy Travel. They gave us the best quote of 4 tour operators. Their trip exceeded our very high expectations. Joseph, our guide, was incredibly patient, knowledgable, friendly, and extremely knowledgable about all of the animals and vegetation. He could even tell us all of the birds that we saw. The tented camps we stayed in were wonderful. I cannot imagine them being any better. The animals and wilderness were truly magnificent. Everyone should go on a safari and I highly highly recommend Easy Travel.

We were very pleased with Jocky Safari Tours.
A few years planned to go on a safari, but on safari tours price, here in Moscow really bite. And then by chance, at a forum Vinsky learned that can be quite inexpensive to travel without intermediaries. Immediately I contacted c Jocky Tours and began to correspond about the price and other details of the tour with them. And then came the day when we arrived in Nairobi. We were met at the airport by a driver of the company and drove to their offices for the payment of the tour, and then delivered to the hotel for free. The next morning, we drove for another driver and we went for a long-awaited safari. With us in the jeep was still four. The first item on our itinerary was the Masai Mara National park. On the first evening we saw so many animals: giraffe, zebra, impala, buffalo, warthogs and wildebeests, everything looked especially beautiful at sunset. On the second day even saw elephants, jackals, monkeys, hippos, crocodile, ostrich, cheetahs, lions. And the most important thing that impressed us - it is the migration of wildebeest and zebras across the Mara River. Please herd stood and did not dare go into the water, and when it went first, then the others all began to jump into the water behind him and go to the other side. We looked for an hour with bated breath for ungulates, it seemed there were thousands and thousands formed a never-ending chain of antelope with zebras, somewhere out there, in the depths of the savannah. We had a full day safari in the Masai Mara park, and we stopped for lunch in the middle of the savannah. In the evening on arrival in the camp, Maasai guarding our hotel accompanied us to his village. There we visited on a visit at this Maasai tribe, saw their way of life, by taking pictures with the locals. Masai start a fire using a wooden stick for us, I tried, but failed, and they produced it for two minutes. And finally, we jumped with them one above, and even danced. What I want to say about Jocky Tours. Safaris are organized at the highest level, all our wishes fulfilled, subject to any fines. We were fed three times a day. Kenyan cuisine at very very tasty, I visited many countries and some where, so delicious cooked. We were very pleased with Jocky Safari Tours.

Excellent personalized safari
This was our first safari and it felt slightly strange to plan everything with an operator that did not have a website or online reviews. Everything worked out perfectly. We were picked up at the airport, everything along the way worked like a well-oiled machine. We had customized a route that was slightly unusual with Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Amboseli. The different crews were all very nice. Food was always good and accommodation really quite ok.

amazing safari
We had a wonderful experience with Victor John, our guide from Leopard Tours. Victor made our safari experience full of surprise and nice animals. We did the big five thanks to his “instinct” to find the most amazing animals. On top of that, Victor John was very nice with us and we would definitely recommend any friends or family to take him as a guide that knows perfectly well the animals and the way to find them. So nice enjoying the safari with someone so competent and funny that had become a friend.

Great experience in South-Africa with kids!
At the start of our Holidays we received a personalized safari-book. This was like a bible for us, bringing us to all places, explaining how travel and tips work, telling us where to do our shopping and where to go. We travelled with three kids (age 15, 12, 9). We enjoyed the animals, the lodges in the parks, the birds and the people. The guides we met have a lot of knowledge about nature. We especially enjoyed the cultural village tour, where Pumi showed us the village of her husband and where we met her mother-in-law who cooked us a lunch. She had a piano in her living-room at which our kids started to play and the young kids that were around started to sing. The visit at the church was also a nice experience, also here very friendly people! It is nice to combine nature with culture in a country like South-Africa!

Very nice experience, good organisation and friendly support
We booked a 3 day safari in Kruger Park as it would habe been our 1st time in South Africa. All transfers were arranged carefully and the accomodation was over our expectation expecially because of the great service we got from the staff. Very nice and reliable people, great safari game tours (we could see 4 of the big 5). All in all a nice experience that I would recommend to anyone.

Awesome experience at Masai Mara and Amboseli
I had my awesome safari in Kenya with this company and I enjoyed from airport transfer to the days in the wild. I had an awesome driver guide who had knowledge about the animals and attractions. This company made my visit to Kenya enjoyable and worthy.
