Review about Kruger National Park by Adrian
The Kruger Park is awesome for animal spotting because you will find all big 5 there. The downside is, there are a lot of cars, and you cannot go offroad

A perfect, fabulous once in a lifetime experience
The safari was absolutely awesome, Rochelle from Kruger Park Tours did an awesome job and has organised the whole trip to our FULL satisfaction. She answered all questions in a timely manner and organised everything just as we wanted it.
And we were not disappointed at all!
Organisation - excellent
Wildlife - excellent
Food - excellent
Accommodation - excellent
Bush Vibe, Guides and Staff - outstanding.
We enjoyed our stay so much. We had no idea which camp operator to choose, Kruger Park Tours booked us for Tydon Safari Camp. It is a familiy owned business, for people by people. Thanks to its location, you will/can enjoy both, the Kruger Park itself and the Sabi Sands Reserve - wildlife spotting was awesome and so was the rest! About Tydon Safari camp: it is not toursim mass processing, the guides take their time to explain everything, food is superb - local food - which you don't find in a restaurant. Beds in the tents as well as the tents were VERY clean and comfortable. The evenings and also day toures were full of fun and giggles - we could not ask for more.
Thanks so much Rochelle and Tydon Safaris for this awesome Safari, memories for a lifetime!

Gorilla trekking was one of the Best experience of a lifetime. Thank you team Experience Uganda
Experience Uganda was the best agent I found. From the moment we made contact all the information regarding gorilla trekking was very efficiently sent. Kevin was very knowledgeable about every aspect of our trip. He made the right recommendations and created a perfect itinerary that was well presented.
Our flights from Entebbe to Kihihi were booked instantly and gorilla permits obtained straight away almost 9 months in advance! Just before our arrival to Entebbe, we were well briefed by Kevin.
At Entebbe Airport we were greeted by Sam who drove us to Karibu Guesthouse in a beautiful setting. Brett and Bex warmly received us and briefed us very well for our gorilla trip.
After a lovely breakfast in the verandah surrounded by the lovely garden, we headed back to the airport to fly to Kihihi.
Mahogany Springs Lodge was beautifully located surrounded by Bwindi Forest.
After a briefing from our official guide Rita, our trek began with two rangers and amazing porters without whom we would have had many slips and falls!
After two hours trekking in perfect weather, we met trackers who had located the gorilla family in the bushes. Seeing these beautiful animals was the most magical and awesome experience! We were so lucky to see a Silverback, Blackbacks and babies at a very close range. It was our best hour and every second worth it.
We descended back to the Ranger’s reception to receive certificates for our achievement!
Next day we were back at Karibu where we enjoyed warm hospitality once again. We had freshly prepared lunch, shared our gorilla stories with Brett and Bex. It was then time to say goodbye.
We highly recommend Experience Uganda for gorilla trekking to all for their thoroughness, efficiency and organisation. We have already tempted many friends!
This was one of the best holidays we have had.
Thank you very much Kevin, Brett, Bex and the team.

Great experience at Maasai Mara
Great Safari experience,
One Big thank you to your team for organizing and meeting our last minute requirements. We honestly had a great time. Our drivers were Joseph and our mobile cook was Mosses. Our trip began on the 18th with the Joseph meeting us on arrival at the airport. We met Mosses our cook the following day. We departed for the Maasai Mara we spent four days camping with full day game drives in between. Maasai Mara is indeed the 8th wonder of the world. Not only were we able to experience the migration on the second day of the safari, we were saw all the big five (Including Rhino) on just two days.
After Maasai Mara we made a short trip to Lake Nakuru National park. We stayed at WCK guesthouse that serves very good coffee and is a very relaxing place. The following day we drove to Lake Baringo but like Nakuru, the water levels had risen so much and our Camp(Roberts camp) had mostly been submerged in water. From Lake Bogoria our safari took as to lake Baringo where we saw geysers and lots of pink flamingos. We stopped at Lake Naivasha on the following day and were able to walk in Crescent Island. This place is worthy visiting as we saw lots of zebra, gazelles and waterbucks.
Our last safari destination was in Amboseli but the road was very tough and tiring. Actually in the 9 days of our safari we travelled 1600 kms without counting the game drives. After the Safari we left for Diani where we relaxed for 5 days on the beach of Mombasa. We would like to thank the team for making everything work according to plan. Thank you.

“So Amazing “
One of my best trip ever. The walk in the jungle was amazing (and not too hard). Hanging out with the gorillas was an incredible experience. Our guide was very nice and explained us many things about the park we drove through.
Uganda is an amazingly beautiful country with stunning places to see. I really hope I will have the opportunity to come back.Viv

AMAZING
I enjoyed the entire experience. Megan Warrinington, Discover Africa, was wonderful. I told her what I was looking for in a Safari and she delivered. I was picked up promptly at the airport in Maun and flown to Moremi Game Reserve where the accommodations were very nice. The staff was extremely friendly and I enjoyed the mokoro rides.
From there I was flown to Pom Pom Camp which I fell in love with, the guides and staff were fantastic. Accommodations were wonderful. Everything worked out and I was able to see a leopard kill an impala, and got to see the leopard's cub. Highly recommend booking with Megan in the future. I also was very impressed with Moremi Air, the outfit that picked me up in Maun, let me store my luggage (no cost) and took me to the various camps.
Thank you for an amazing adventure.

Excelent tour with Routes Kilimanjaro Adventures
The overall of arrangement, communication in general was easy we were getting the response from our questions within the very reasonable time. We definitely got what what we were expecting from Routes Kilimanjaro. We were very surprised by the quantity of animals we saw during our visit to Tanzania considered that this was our first trip to Tanzania in comparison to the previous trips we did in other African countries and Asia.

Well Organized, great people, reasonably priced, and wonderful experience
Ute Sonnenberg was very responsive to my emails and even did a WhatsApp call with me from the U.S. She explained everything well and it was just as described. When we got there, Edward, our tour guide was wonderful and very informative. He knew a lot about the animals and seemed very passionate about the park and his work. We were very glad to have him as a guide for Kruger. At Sabi Sands we stayed at Nottens Bush Camp which was a wonderful camp. We got really close to the animals in their natural habitat. The lodging was really accommodating and felt very homely as we had dinner at a long communal candlelight table with the other guest. Every aspect of it was wonderful. The cost was not cheap but a lot less expensive than the other safaris we looked at.
East african Safaris.
Just a quick note to say that this Gates Adventure Safaris is the most amazing items of arranging all types of East Africa Parks and beyond.
Jose is the professional tour organizer and Consultants with professional manner ,he did organize our couples trips of East African National Parks and he well equipped and on punctually on replying e-mails.Yet he had been following up every night to make sure we are all in safe at news stages of saris programs.
Finally he gave us the noble humble driver guide who knew how to meet clients dreams,expectations,desires and smart land cruiser 4x4 pop up.
I Philipo and my wife Dorrie would like every one to enjoy African safaris with this Gates Adventure Safaris.
