Unforgettable experience!
My safari in Uganda was amazing. Okech Obur my guide and I really enjoy my experience. I visited also Kenya during the Great Migration in august 2016 and I love it a lot. Thanks to Okech and Around Africa Safari. Highly reccommended.
Magical
Amboseli national park is truly magical place to be. There plenty of wild animals to see including elephants, hippos, buffalos, zebra, wildebeests, variety of birds. In addition to this, you have the bonus of viewing the highest mountain in Africa, that is the Kilimanjaro. So really, everything its in the same location.
One thing though, most animals will only come out of their hiding during evening hours and early morning before it gets too hot.

3 nights at Twee Rivieren
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the park with Kalahari Tours and Travel. I had a busy schedule so I could only spend three nights at Twee Rivieren, from which we drove up towards Nossob and Mata Mata. My guide Dennis was incredibly helpful and great at spotting wildlife that I would otherwise have missed.
The wildlife was very impressive, with large numbers of the typical herbivores as well as a few giraffe, southern kudu and red hartebeest. We enjoyed fabulous views of a leopard, two cheetah groups and several honey badgers, but we were unsuccessful with lions and hyenas. The night drive was well worth the small fee and cold temperatures, with six wildcats, a bat-eared fox and many springhares and spotted eagle-owls.
Observing the small birds was difficult as we were confined to our vehicle. However, this was more than made up for by the number and diversity of raptors, including tawny eagles, bateleurs, goshawks, secretarybirds, black-shouldered kites, lanner falcons, martial eagles and jackal buzzards. We also saw the majority of my other targets, such as kori bustard, Burchell's sandgrouse and both southern yellow-billed and African grey hornbills. The scenery was beautiful and provided a great backdrop for photos.
All in all a great trip, although a longer stay would have been great for seeing more of the park's inhabitants.

Wonderful 15 days safariing
It was a very good holiday. Although we have not visited (yet) the North, the South of Tanzania is still devoided of mass tourism ( although one can already see it coming due to the Zanzibar/Mafia vicinity). Selous and Ruaha are really precious. Animals are still afraid/ cautious of Land Rovers.

Great 3 week trip through Uganda and Rwanda
We had an excellent, carefully designed trip for the four of us with the outstanding guide/driver, Abdul.
He kept us safe, drove safely through all different kinds of roads, showed us amazing wildlife ranging from birds to mammals, and gave us great insight into both countries that we visited. He was able to switch to driving on the "wrong" side of the road in Rwanda with no problems! He did a great job of packing and unpacking all of our bags and giving us options in planning our daily schedule. The hotels that they selected for us were very good and several were simply great! Our meals were also delicious and filling. Abdul also gave us a choice between "western" or local food for our lunches and we were very happy with the local restaurants that he found for us.
As with any long trip, there were a few glitches which were not the fault of Abdul nor of Destination Jungle Safaris. Their back office stayed in touch with us by phone to talk us through any rough spots as they occurred.
We believe that we received very good value and appreciated that we could customize the trip before we signed on. This allowed us to know which long days of travel we had signed up for and when to expect one night stands versus two or three night stays which allow one to rest and re-energize.
We certainly recommend Destination Jungle Safaris for anyone thinking of going to these two fascinating countries. The two visits to the mountain gorillas (one in each country) were beyond words!

Dream Honeymoon Safari
After always wanting to go on safari, my wife and I booked our honeymoon through Afroriginal and it turned out better than we could have ever imagined. They thought of everything and our guide, Stuart, was an expert at making us feel like our game drives were once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Our accommodations were also terrific and Afroriginal took care of everything including letting everyone at our luxury camps know it was our honeymoon ahead of time. Indeed, it doesn't get more special than Champagne in the Serengeti with lions in plain sight! If you are looking for incredible personal service by true experts dedicated to ensuring a trip of a lifetime, then Afroriginal is where to go. We highly recommend them!

Trip of a lifetime
A trip to Africa is something that people do once in a lifetime. You work, or have worked hard for the money to go and you want to ensure that it meets all your expectations and dreams to date. I researched for three months, fly in fly out, tented camp, luxury accommodation etc. It even got to a stage where I seriously thought about not going on Safari. Then I came across Safari Bookings and Transtrek Safaris. I contacted Daniel from Transtrek, told him what I wanted and did not want from my trip of a lifetime. He came back with a suggested itinerary. We made some adjustments to include Giraffes and Baby Elephants in Nairobi. Peter met us at the Airport and guided us throughout the trip. He went out of his way to ensure we saw what we wanted and more. My only problem I am faced with now is what photos to keep. I would recomend Daniel and his team without hesitation.

Amazing
Our Safari experience couldn't be better. Africa Celebrity staff are very helpful, friendly and polite. We spent 4 days in total, the first one at Lake Nakuru doing also the boat Safari at Lake Naivasha and the others at Masai Mara reserve spending one night at Masai Mara Village. I strongly recommend Safari in Kenya and if you are looking for the best experience doing that, please make a favor to yourself contacting Africa Celebrity staff! This guys know how to do it!
