A very good safari
It was a very good safari!
We were both my brother and I, and had a great time with Joseph and his driver Khalifa.
Absolutely awesome people. Next time I hope.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Enrico
Serengeti is the crown jewel of Tanzania's safaris. Vast rolling plains. Great photography. All manner of wildlife and birds. Ngorongoro gets close, and you will actually have an easier time encountering wildlife in Ngorongoro simply because of the ecological density, but nothing compares to your first sunset in the Serengeti as you come across a family of elephants. Magical.

Review about Arusha National Park by Enrico
Very quiet, lush, and green. Flamingos and giraffes highlight this park. Walking safaris available. In our walking safari - treks to waterfalls - we spent about half an hour walking literally meters away from a family of giraffes. As long as we stayed quiet, they let us accompany them before they broke off from us slowly. Surreally experience.

There's no better place to get up close and personal with wildlife of all varieties.
Ngorongoro Crater was the best place to get up close and personal with wildlife from the smallest bird to the Big Five. The weather in the Crater was milder than in the Serengeti, despite both safaris taking place during the heat of dry season. Our safari guides were quite knowledgeable, helping us understand not just the ecology and characteristics of birds to flora, but maintaining a constant respect for the conservation efforts in the area and how they've affected the lives of native Tanzanians. I got great shots. Not hard to capture wildlife in motion, particularly in the bright sun. Lots of flexibility in how you shoot. Other travelers can sometimes be quite elitist. Ngorongoro is not as busy as Serengeti tends to be, but certainly is well traveled.

We had an amazing safari with fantastic game viewing, experienced guides, great food and camp!
My partner and I went on safari for 3 nights/4 days in October 2016 and we had an amazing time! I've been on other safaris in Tanzania and was sometimes disappointed with the quality of guides and game viewing. There was no disappointment when it came to this safari it was amazing!!! Our guide Mbonea was very experienced and knowledgable about the animals and their behaviour making it really interesting. We saw every kind of animal and lots of cats, prides of lions every day, a couple of leopard sightings, one very close and even a cheetah! Aside from that we saw lots of other animals. The tented camp was really nice and really comfortable with great food and service was excellent. All in all it was a really excellent safari run by a really professional company!

A family adventure discovering the beauty of the Pearl of Africa
We went on a one week safaris with Kombitours in April 2017 and had Tom as our guide. We were 4 adults and 4 children aged between 2 and 12 years. It was a wonderful family adventure and Tom made sure that everything went smoothly so that we could relax and enjoy Uganda's amazing wildlife and breathtaking scenery. Whenever we had a special request, Tom did his utmost to make sure it was satisfied and we really appreciated that. Overall, we were very impressed by the child friendly service we got everywhere we went. We recommend this trip and our guide Tom to all families traveling with children and looking for a bit of adventure. Thank you Kombitours!

Great experience!
We were 4 family friends who visited Kenya in March. We got in touch with Kennedy in February, much before our visit to Kenya. He was very responsive right from the get go and gave us a very good deal :) We visited Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha for a 4 days and 3 nights safari package. At one point Kennedy was so nice to accommodate a boat ride. The driver who led us to the game drive, Joseph was very experienced. He knew the exact corners and places in Masai & Nakuru where we were fortunate to witness all the BIG 5 of Kenya! We got lucky :) I'd really recommend Kennedy for anyone who is willing to explore true wilderness of Kenya :)

Professional and Friendly
As a rookie on safaris and having a few friends who have been touring in Namibia (a lot of suggestions), my husband's and my own expectations were really high! Needless to say it overcame every single one of them! As we arrived everything was very well prepared by Dunas Safari: technical support, road maps, gps, mobile and wifi. Our trip started with a huge delay from our flight and as a result the "welcome briefing" was postponed for the next morning so we could have a rest, and it was worth it; cause althought the planning fullfilled everything we wanted to see/do, the welcome briefing gave us a lot of plan b's, some of them we took, and ended up having a mindblowing experience - Driving through the wild, painterly and raw and stopping at friendly Namibia.
Also, Dunas Safari was always and only a phone call away which gave us Comfort and solved minor details throughout our journey; made everything very friendly and easy going.
Thank you Dunas Safari

Best safari trip, thanks to Twaha
We, a group of 6 dentistry students from Germany, got picked up by our guide Twaha at different places (Mbale & Soroti) and were brought to the Red Chili Rest Camp in Murchison Falls Nationalpark. On the way through the Nationalpark we were already overwhelmed by all the animals we saw within the first hour. Elephants, antelopes, waterbucks, Pumbaa everywhere! The Camp was the best place to stay. The bathroom facilities and the tents were clean, the food was good and the staff friendly. The next day our guide, who planed everything, picked us up early in the morning to get the first fairy over the Nile. We got a lunch box, we chose the day before and started the game drive at sunrise. We saw a whole flock of giraffes, many elephants and even several lions and one leopard. Twaha was very well connected to the other guides and got a call, when f.e. a leopard was seen and brought us there. He drove respectfully "animals first" and stopped whenever we wanted to take pictures. Another game drive in the afternoon and a boat trip on the Nile were as overwhelming as the first day. The boat trip ended with a hike to the top of Murchison Falls - that was quite exhausting because of the heat and the rise, but in the end sooo worth it!
On monday Twaha brought us back to Mbale, were we need to fetch our luggage and slept one night, and brought us to our next destination in Jinja.
As you can see, we had the best time at Murchison, perfect service and a lot of fun with Twaha! Thanks a lot!
