Review about South Africa by Harold Brown
South Africa has many game reserves and experiences to meet your desires. Ngala is a private game reserve where a smaller number of guests and experienced trackers and drivers can take you to what you want to see. I visited Ngala in 1998 and what a great experience of getting up close to leopards and lions. The bush vibe in private game reserves is a certain.

Awesome!
An amazing trip that couldn't/wouldn't have happened without Safarihub . They captured exactly what we wanted to do and made that possible in this trip. Fantastic people that we met whilst out there and definitely want to return

Fantastic Trip - Well organised and tailored to our liking
Two females travelling Rwanda for 8 days. The trip was tailored exactly to our request and everything was extremely well organised with daily itineraries, hotel details and contact numbers as well as emergency numbers for the Agency. I was extremely impressed and plan to go back to East Africa next year with the assistance of E-Trip Africa. We had a great selection of hotels and activities and not a single glitch throughout the trip. ETrip Africa know what they are doing when it comes to the region! They have clearly traveled the area and are familiar with the field and organise your trip accordingly. They have access to great Guides on the ground which is critical. We had an amazing guide, Kevin, with us for the entire duration. He was friendly and full of interesting and useful information and was able to talk to us about our political, historical, environmental and social curiosities about Rwanda.
One of the best organised trips with friendly, accommodating and pleasant agents - everything was simple and easy and they will ensure all is taken care of and well organised so you can enjoy completely worry free. Sent them a lot of emails with questions and they were extremely responsive with all queries. Thank you for everything! Highly recommend ETrip Africa and highly recommend Rwanda - dont let the press and general perceptions misguide you. The country is one of the cleanest, most efficient, friendliest, socially developed and safest countries I have travelled (and I have travelled to approx 50 countries).

Hello Driving!
Our guide was very kind, knowledgeable and an excellent driver. The animals were terrific. All of the lodging was great especially the Mipito Tent Camp - the only exception was an aiport hotel in Dar Es Alaam. Please be warned about what the actually itinerary will look like! I failed to understand that the morning and evening game drives would be preceeded and followed by very long drives through the Serengeti. Instead of being able to relax at a lodge or campsite, we spent 12 hours a day for three days in a safari jeep over very rough roads getting from one place to another and then slowing down for the game drive portions. It was awesome to see the vastness of the Serengeti and the animals - but a morning or afternoon break would have been welcomed. We tried to do both the Serengeti and the crater in one trip and I would suggest you only do one unless you have more than 4-5 days to spend on safari.

Excellent Experience with Hello Tanzania
From beginning to end, we were very well taken care of by Mwajabu and Hello Tanzania. Two members of our group had food allergies - soy and gluten - and they did a great job taking care of us. In particular, we loved our guide on the safari - Richard. We were in great hands, saw amazing wild life, and never felt unsafe.
Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

I recommend Ecospecialist Tours for a straightforward, reliable, and reasonably good value safari
Review of Ecospecialist Tours Uganda; www.ecotoursuganda.com
5 day safari from Kibale – Murchison Falls and Budungo - Entebbe, Uganda, July 15-19th 2016
Ecospecialists tours Uganda organised a 5 day, 4 night safari for my family of four (two children aged 9 & 15), with most of the safari based at Murchison Falls (at the Murchison River Lodge – highly recommended, particularly for families). The company gave excellent value for money – prices 2/3rds quoted by most other larger operators – and are a small local, enthusiastic company that try hard. Arrangements were all conducted efficiently and clearly by email and 50% deposit for safari in advance all done safely and efficiently via bank transfer. Robert Kungujje, one of the owners of the company, created a custom itinerary for us and was also our driver and guide. Robert was friendly, very helpful, very knowledgeable about sites and mammals, and moderately knowledgeable as bird guide (enough to satisfy an infrequent or new visitor to East Africa). Travel was in a standard, perfectly adequate, pop-top safari minibus, well and safely driven by Robert. The safari itself was excellent: Murchison Falls is excellent for mammals, scenery and particularly birds, and Robert put together a good program to encounter the best of it. I recommend Ecospecialist Tours for a straightforward, reliable, and reasonably good value Ugandan safari. Prof. Will Cresswell, St Andrews, Scotland.

Excellent Safari with a good guide with humor and broad knowledge of nature.
The Safari was well organized. Savannah Explorers listened very well what we want to see and came with all kind of suggestions. Together we made a beautiful safari. Our driver/guide Ibrahim has a great knowledge of animal live in general and he was always a happy person with a lot of humor. Savannah Explorers arranged everything really nice. It was for us a great experience.

be careful - wrong itinerary
I'm so sorry, but be careful. You can't trust the company.
The itinerary was wrong (5 days Mt Kenya, 2 days Samburu NP)
and you can't trust the stuff:
I left my luggage in the office, and after the Climbing, I missed my electronical values.

Great short safari
I set up a last-minute safari to Mikumi National Park with Gecko Adventure. They picked me up in Dar and we drove to Mikumi (about 7 hours because of all the heavy traffic leaving Dar). The accommodations at Camp Bastion were great and the game drives fantastic. My guide, Anthony, did a great job and I was amazed at all of the animals we saw - lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, impala, eland, baboons, jackals, etc. Overall, it was a fantastic trip.
