Perfect place to see at least once in ur life.
Great landscapes. Amazing animals. Unbelievable wildlife. But at the same time very poor people around.

Murchision national park
Very good to see giraffe and elephants.but has a small population of loin. Still uganda needs to improve service sectors. People attitude about giving service to customers are lagging. They think only about to grab money.

The experience of wildlife is something never to be forgotten, highlights every day, and night.
Saw and learnt lots, with comfortable, clean and well appointed camps to enjoy overnight. The company we booked with (Wild Planet Safari) was efficient, well equipped and also personal in our dealings with them. I would recommend them to others.

Amazing glamping safari arranged by Timbuktu
We visited Qatermains 1920s camp in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, as part of our honeymoon. Timbuktu helped us coordinate everything and it was a great experience from start to finish. Thanks!

Unforgettable experience
With Regional tours and safari's you get what you pay for and then some. We had an incredible safari experience thanks to our driver John who was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating and made sure we saw the big 5! All the places we stayed at were clean and comfortable with very friendly and welcoming staff. The food was great! All in all a top notch experience.

Very good agency
We really enjoyed working with Darren and Kate. They did a very thorough job in planning and organizing our two-week travel in South Africa, Botswana and visit to Victoria Falls. They work with very good local guides and excellent camps. The accommodations that were picked for us both in Cape Town and Victoria Falls exactly met our requirements and were superb.
Thank you Darren and Kate for your excellent job!

It was a trip of a lifetime
The trip of a lifetime!
Vacation2Africa worked with us to put together our personalized itinerary with tented camps, hikes, village interaction, wildebeest migration, Ngorongoro Caldera, several national parks and of course, the Big 5.
To make things exciting we had an escort safari. Since the owner was gonna be in Tanzania he offered to escort us.
Tom (owner) and his staff knew where we needed to be to see the most action. From experience, they could observe an animal's movement and position the vehicles for the best viewing and photos. The drivers amazed us with their ability to spot even the smallest game and birds. With Tom's narration and nightly talks, we came to love his native Tanzania and appreciate the treasures it holds

Bad experience
In short, we got white-collar pickpocketed. We booked a 7-day safari with Jipe Trekking and Safari. On the morning of departure, we were kept waiting at the hotel for hours such that the first day's activities had to be postponed. On day 3, it emerged that there were problems with the dedicated credit card the driver was provided with to pay the entry fee for Serengeti National Park (it seems the company doesn't trust their staff enough to provide them with a general credit card). We were driven around from bank to bank for hours until the driver was forced to give up and try again tomorrow. As a result, we were now a full day behind schedule. The consequence was that we had to subsequently reduce our time in some of the nicest areas on the trip in order to return on time. When we complained about the fact that we were effectively charged one seventh of the total trip fees to wait around during these delays - none of which were our fault - the owner refused to reimburse us, and was even quite emotionally abusive over email. I suspected his responses could have been cut and pasted from previous dissatisfied clients. We've now lodged a complaint to the Tanzanian consumer affairs department. Fingers crossed.
On the plus side, the rest of our time in Tanzania was great, from the very first moment we no longer had to deal with Jipe!
