Tanzania Northern Circuit - Too crowded
Hi Folks,
Just a quick one to let you know about my experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
We had an amazing well organized safari with Serene Tours Tanzania, in fact this is the second one I did with them. The first one was back in January in the South of Tanzania. But for the North of Tanzania I am a bit disappointed, it was way too crowded and spent quite some times at gates of the parks.
My advice to you guys, do not do the same mistake as I did. Start with the North of Tanzania first, do not do the safari in August as it is peak season and then only do the South of Tanzania. Doing so you will have a different feel of your safaris and will not remain and a mixed feeling.
This been said, Tanzania is well worth it but, you need to be careful when you choosing the itineraries as well as the time of the year you will visit!
Enjoy Tanzania,
Xavier

My Aug 2016 trip
You did an excellent job with our itinerary , We had an excellent trip and felt we were particularly lucky with sightings at the first three camps/lodges due to the expertise of our driver, Stanford.
We were particularly pleased that once an animal had been spotted we were able to observe at leisure and have wonderful memories of a very restive leopard in a tree. We watched for about half an hour as he tried to find a comfy spot and walked up and down and all around the tree. Having our own vehicle really made a difference.

Fantastic time in Uganda with Home To Africa Tours and travel.
In June, I , my wife and my 4 children planned to make a trip to Africa, we urgued on which country to go to. My elder son suggested Uganda . We contacted several companies regarding our trip to Uganda but we selected Home To Africa Tours and Travel company because of the way were packages were setup, had a unique approach to packaging of tours and their budget was affordable.
My family and I have just returned from a two week trip round southwestern Uganda (Kibale Forest, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Lake Mburo). Our driver/guide, Paul, was a fount of knowledge, a superb driver and a real pleasure to be with for the whole of the trip. We have come back keen to visit other parts of Uganda in the future and would definitely go to Home To Africa Tours and Travel Again . We already miss Uganda. we will surely send more of our friends to Home To Africa Tours and Travel.

Our first experience in Uganda
Its still like a dream , I cant believe all that I saw in a wonderful small country Uganda.
Home To Africa Tours and Travel took amazing care of us throughout our three day excursion. They were also incredibly helpful in getting the safari set up and having all bookings taken care of for us in advance. I searched on google for almost most tour companies in uganda, we selected Home to Africa Tours and travel because their budget was affordable and they were so fast and quick at responding to your emails and all the questions. Elephants, giraffe, deer, antelope, warthogs, hippopotamus, crocodiles, hyena, lion, beautiful birds, and a leopard. It was incredible! The boat ride up the nile to Murchison Falls is a must do and a perfect way to end the tour. I Did not have any Idea on how beautiful Uganda is . wow, I highly recommend Home to Africa Tours and travel for anyone who is interested in adventuring Uganda to its fullest .

Want a once in a lifetime trip that also helps a local primary school? Book Gatatu today!
We decided to go see the gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda for our honeymoon, best decision ever! My husband searched online ad nauseam for the best deals and we were so lucky/thankful we stumbled across Gatatu tours! The owner, Richard, was such a pleasure to work with. He always replied to the endless questions we had and really helped us personalize our trip. Per our request, we even got to meet the kids he helps support. We loved the questions the kiddos had for us and were very impressed with all the plans Richard has for the school (his passion and dedication to these kids is truly inspiring!). As for the main attraction, I can't talk up seeing the gorillas enough! It was such a humbling and amazing experience. I was thrilled to learn how gorilla tourism is not only helping the gorilla population slowly bounce back but the Rwandan & Ugandan governments are also giving portions of the money made from gorilla tourism back to local communities through infrastructure. So if you want to fill your half empty cup, help out the gorillas and local communities including Richard's primary school, warm your heart with a once in a lifetime experience PLUS take some unbelievable photos, then Gatatu safaris is the best option for you! As previous people have commented, they require a wire transfer to book the trip (this is not uncommon, we did the same for a prior trip to Tanzania). Richard is 100% trustworthy and I would be more than willing to answer any questions you may have about the process (or share some of my favorite gorilla pics with you!). Feel free to email me. Bottom line, my advice is to book Gatatu today and then prepare yourself for an unforgettable trip!!! Thanks again Gatatu Safari and keep up the amazing work!
