4 day gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable and Queen Elizabeth national park experience.
This trip was much like what we had anticipated in the first place. The trip was full of emotions and awe-inspiring moments. This trip was seamless given the prompt and professional touch of gorilla tour booking safaris. We were picked in time at the Airport and transferred to the hotel. Our next day was pretty much enjoy the savannah and green vegetation as we were moving from the capital city, Kampala, to Bwindi Impenetrable forest. We had a stopover at the equator in Masaka for some photo shoots as well. The next day which I would call our 2 day was all about gorilla trekking. Early in the morning we were briefed by the Bwindi game rangers who escorted us to the location they had tracked the gorillas earlier on. We saw them in a matter of a short time compared to what I had expected. Truly this was a lifetime experience: there no words to describe this moment but all I could say it was special for all of us in the group. After Bwindi Impenetrable, we went to Queen Elizabeth for a game drive after which we headed to the airport. That was it. Nice experience with a great professional company, gorilla tour booking safaris.

Great budget safari
We booked the safari directly with Shika tours and everything was well organized. They offer a great value for money. We had whole Land Cruiser to ourselves and and the best guide (David) and cook (Damian) we could imagine. David did an awesome job during the game drives and he could tell us a lot about the animals. After the game drives we were looking forward for dinner which was always very delicous.
We started with Tarangire national park followed by Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara and we would do it again in the same order.

Wonderful people ensuring a high quality safari experience
We have had an amazing 5-day Safari experience in Serengeti, Ngorongo Crater and Manyara lake thanks to Northern Circuit Adventure company. Michael, the owner, was very helpful and friendly, he provided all the information requested, adjusted the Safari offer accordingly to our request, we felt well taken care of. Our guide Wumi was simply wonderful - he ensured we saw all the animals including the Big Five and explained us a lot about wildlife and animals life. He took us all the way to the Mara River to give us a chance to see the Wildebeest migration. Moussa, our chef, managed to cook amazing meals throughout the whole trip.
The abundance of animals in Serengeti and Ngorongo was simply amazing, so many lions so close from us. We spent nights at public campsites - and it was also an interesting experience sleeping in tents in the middle of African savanna. Just make sure that you bring warm clothe if you spend the night at Ngorongo crater campsite as it gets pretty cold at night.
In general we are very happy with our Safari experience and would recommend Northern Circuit Adventure as a Safari operator.

Amazingly diverse safaris in Botswana - first by boat then by jeep - doesn't get any better!
After shopping around for a couple of months, Discover Africa was the one who had the most diverse options for the price. Megan Warrington always responded quickly and was professional and patient with my endless questions. Discover Africa teamed up with some wonderful tour providers who were truly dedicated to providing the best possible experience for their clients. I will be recommending Discover Africa to my friends who have a safari on their bucket list!

Fantastic holidays!!!
‘Fantastic’ is probably the word that better describe our experience in the 8 days Safari in Tanzania. Ludovico - our son - has a real passion for all kind of animals: this trip has been for him like a dream, something he will bring in his mind and in his heart for his entire life!
And this is not only because the country in itself reserves a lot of great surprises in terms of its wonderful nature and people, but also, and I would say above all, because we have been so lucky to have the best guide ever: Asuman Juma!
Asuman has been able to show us the best of what the parks could offer. We have ‘met’ all the animals: lions, ghepards, hippo, elephants, leopards, gnus, zebras, giraffes, impalas and many more. We have seen the sunset and the sunrise, we have looked at the gnu migration, we have spent memorable nights in tended camps (with wild beast around us….), we have got in touch with the Masai culture: in summary we have ‘met’ the real Africa, which we will never forget!
We will never stop to thank ‘It started in Africa’ for this as well as for having supported us in organizing this trip in a vary short period of time.
We definitely recommend to have a Safari in Tanzania with this agency and with a guide like Asuman.
Hopefully, we will come again in the next years!

It was a great trip
Everything went perfectly fine. The only thing, if I had to find something was the shark diving experience in Durban which took place on a stormy day and that I found dangerous and the guides in Durban city who were the nicest people in the world but utterly incompetent. The other tour guides we had in Lesotho and Pretoria and Jburg were amazing and we really recommend them warmly.

Great customer service, excellent high-qaulity tour
Tammy at Pembury Tours took great care pulling together our itinerary. She provided lots of options along with pros and cons and good visibility over price and standard. Very quick to respond to questions and no request was too much hassle. Some good "insider" insights too which helped us decide where to go and how long to stay. The cost of the trip represented good value for money I think. The welcome pack was of high quality and very clear and professional. We felt very comfortable and safe in Tammy's hands and had a wonderful trip - thank you!

The arrangement is thoughtful and adaptable to different situations.
Overall the experience is good. We got prompt feedback in most of cases. The arrangement of hotels and safari trips are very thoughtful and meet our expectations. There was a same issue happened before we went to Amboseli as the vehicle was not the one we expected. We understood the reason but it would be better if we could be communicated earlier rather than knew it when it happened. Still it was a good trip and experience. Thanks!

4 days Safari - Best experience with best company
NCA was recommended to me by my friend and it was great decision to choose them. Mike is very helpful - you can see that he really want to provide best experience for his guests. What is also important he can help to book hotel in Arusha - they cooperate with Clouds View hotel which is in very good price and is quite good. In regards Safari I spent 4 wonderful days in Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro - our driver Denis was also wonderful guide with vast knowledge about wildlife - he knows also a lot of interesting stories - nice for evenings :) Please keep in mind that this is not obvious in other companies that driver is also good guide! Our cheff Sweetbert cared so that we have every day fresh and good food. In summary Denis and Sweetbert are dream team for such trip. NCA in my opinion is best company for Safari in Tanzania. Asante sana Denis Mike and Sweetbert!! :)
