Knowledgeable, reliable and thoughtful.
When I contacted Tanzania Choice Safaris, Brenda -the co-owner- easily grasped my interests, ideas and concerns to set out to build a customized itinerary for me. While I went to Tanzania initially for a week-long conference, I had a few personal contacts and hopes for trips and sight-seeing afterwards. I was amazed at how expertly Tanzania Choice Safaris put together a package that organized everything into an amazing program. Brenda had taken my proposals, and together with valuable ideas from a wonderful contact she gave me, I had an itinerary that covered visiting a Masaai girls school, a hospital, a theological faculty, museums, a short trip to Dar Es Salaam, and a safari trek. It was a joy to count on Kasakii for all my local visits and tours, as well benefitting from his knowledge and upbeat attitude in my safari to Arusha National Park. I heartily recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris.

Surreal Masai Mara and excellent hospitality
I had an awesome safari experience with Magical Retreat and Adventure tour. The moment I started communicating my queries with Pamela, my trip organiser I got a very comprehensive responses from her. She answered most of my queries with adequate information before I even ask her.
After I registered with her, she was always there, very prompt in planning my trip and answering queries. The way she handled our concerns and planning, I was assured we are in right hands.
The day we reached Kenya, she surprised us by receiving us on te airport. We felt so good to be received so well in another country.
Then trip began, our driver was very jolly and cool company telling us exciting stories and facts about Kenya.
The stay and food was beyond expectation. And Masai Mara was surreal. Meanwhile Pamela kept tracking our trip and asking us our well being.
Lake Nakuru was also so beautiful.
Overall the trip was huge success without any hiccups , best memories were created. Thanks to Pamela

Really nice experience and well organised for a really good price! Only problem : cash only!
All was perfect from the beginning to the end. The safari park was amazing we could see all of animals we wanted to see and the service was always friendly and on time! The only thing that they could develop is an electronic system's payment!

Unforgettable Optimistic Safari
The staff is very helpful from the first moment when they pick you up at the airport and take you to the hotel, it's all included. Daniel, the two Emanuel make you feel welcome from the first moment. The days are organized very well and with Pole-Pole mindset we did everything. We saw all the animals included on the safari, maybe we missed the Leopard but we saw two times Cheetahs. It was very nice and comfortable to sleep in a tent in the middle of Serengeti Park and at the top of Ngorongoro hills. The bathrooms were really acceptables to be in the middle of nowhere, hot water a few times.
John was always ready to not let us starve, so he cooked for us all the time during the Safari: morning, lunch and evening with super tasty and traditional dishes.
The guides in the Safari: John and Thomas made us feel very comfortable and welcome, they taught us a lot of new things and Kiswahili language too. Thomas was very friendly, has a great knowledge of life. A beautiful person to spend time with, forwarding is very nice and a Great Safari Explorer. Finally Andrew is a good mentor.
This experience was fantastic and will remain in our hearts forever. Maisha marefu.

9 Day Rhino, Wildlife, Gorilla and Primate Safari
Lifetime Experience Safaris was a trip of a lifetime! Upon arrival at Entebbe airport Baylon met us and we were on our way. There are not enough kind words to say about Baylon. He is a wonderful person and excellent driver/guide. He knew where to go to get the best pictures of Elephants, Lions, Leopards, Hippos, Giraffes, Crocodiles, and numerous other wildlife. We started our trip at the Rhino sanctuary- and on that trek we spotted 10 Rhinos! After that we went on Murchison Falls National Park. While in Murchison NP we went on 2 Safari drives, a Nile cruise, a hike to the top of Murchison Falls! All accommodations during the 9 days were fantastic. We picked the "moderate" level for accommodations. The meals were also very good.
After Murchison NP we headed to Kibale for our Chimp trek. This was truly amazing. We then went on to Queen Elizabeth National Park for more safari drives and tree climbing lions!
The highlight of our tour was seeing the Mountain Gorillas at Bwindi. Even though it was raining we were able to see two families of Gorillas on the side of the mountain. it was truly mystical. Memories for a lifetime!
After Bwindi we stopped at Lake Mburo National Park and there we saw Zebras and Impalas, along with other wildlife.
We made a deposit on our trip via credit card. A 3% credit card fee was added on. This is done in most places in Africa because they cannot afford to absorb that fee. We paid the balance of our safari in U.S. dollars once we arrived.
Prior to the trip all email communication was done with Jesse-Tom and he always answered every email promptly. We met Jesse-Tom in Kampala for a quick cup of coffee after our arrival in Entebbe. He is a kind gracious man.
Thank you Lifetime Safaris for the BEST trip of our lives! Before this trip Uganda was just a place on a map...and now Uganda is a place in my Heart!
If anyone has questions about Lifetime Experience Safaris or traveling to Uganda please do not hesitate to contact us. We felt very safe during the entire trip.

The exceptional of all tours...Given another chance I would choose them all over again.
We had an amaizing trip to the Ngorongoro crater..The Service offered by Mupana tours was amazing,in that they helped us choose the best hotel to stay,where to start our trip from and the best tour guides to escort us,which was all according to our preference.
I was amazed at the fact that we saw the cheetah which is the most rare animal to come across and was spotted by our tour guide.
We also had the best memorable pictures on the best sites chosen by our tour guide...
I would advice anyone interested with a tour in the hearts of Tanzania to choose Mupana tours.

Incredible, saw all the animals, Vumi our driver was flexible and kind, Eric our cook was amazing!!
My 4 friends and I did a lot of research and quote requests on SafariBookings before reaching the decision to go with Kanuth. WE NEVER LOOKED BACK. We chose the 4 day 3 night Serengeti Safari and chose to camp all 3 nights. The price point for this safari was perfect and we were a little worried how the quality would be sacrificed but nothing about this safari felt budget. I cannot say enough good things about our driver Vumi or our cook Eric. Vumi, our driver, was in the loop with all the other drivers and would radio over when we saw something or vis versa then speeding along to ensure we saw whatever animal he was told about. He quickly learned what we loved seeing and skillfully drove us around ensuring we got the most of our days! Eric, our cook, made us feel very special to have a private chef with us. We had a vegetarian on the trip and all meals had multiple spectacular options for everyone! The Ngorongoro campsite was amazing and many other groups were there as well, the Serengeti one was nice as well with a few other groups (there is no fence and animals are around you all night just a heads up!), and the Tarangire one we were the only people and everything was fine but it was a little more rough. We would recommend Kanuth Safaris and particularly Vumi and Eric to everyone!

Africa experts. Great safari.
We have been to Africa before but always stayed at lodges. This time we wanted a tented camp experience and locations in the northern Serengeti for the great migration crossing the river Mara, and I can say is one of the wildest and best experience ever.
Our guide was a gem.. He was very knowledgeable about animals and birds. wonderful books on birds and animals the he would use to answer our questions. over a half mile away and we were the only ones to see her that day. Same for a leopard and seeing it have its lunch. When We visited also a masai Village, we loved this experience and shared with the real masai for the whole morning. We were glad that the company and ourselves could contribute to support economically the community for they live in such a hard conditions.
We had an incredible time. Thanks again guys to make of our safari a fantastic experience.
