Unforgettable safari experience
It was our first safari trip and ofcourse will not be the last as Professional Safari made it very confortable for us. Our tour guide Anton was the best!! Looking forward to have another tour soon.

A Life Changing Experience!
We had Emanuel Shirima as a guide. Even though we were prepared to the possibility that we’ll miss some of the animals- we’ve seen them all!! Several times!!
Our guide knew the right places at the right times! And it was amazing!!!
The lodges were indulging and the staff at the lodges was warm and welcoming.
An amazing experience that we will never forget

Outstanding and remarkable! No less
We’ve been through Tanzania’s main parks on a cat and crossing eight days journey that we did not want it to end.
Special thank you deserves to Mr. Emanuel Shirima, a driver superb and a ranger extraordinaire.
Above all, his calm and lovely charm, alongside a set of unique set of skills, really made this not only a journey, but a lifelong memory

Picking a company from the internet is tricky.luckily Classic journeys are Efficient and effective
Having lived in East Africa when we did our own independent safaris I was concerned that going on organised one would be a let down. It was not. Definitely the best holiday ever.
Our party was arriving from two different destinations both of which were efficiently met and taken to our first hotel.
The next day Good Luck met us and told us the program. There were one or two items which we were not happy with but he Phoned the office and the tour Was rearranged very quickly. I was impressed.
At every stage Good Luck was sensitive to our particular desires even when they weren’t particularly addressed to him.
At one point I just remarked to the others I didn’t like being with all the other vehicles.
Good luck must’ve heard and he took us off the beaten track to watch a leopard in a tree. We were the only people there.
We were interest In the birds But not very knowledgeable.
Good Luck was well prepared with a very good bird book , better than ours, And some excellent binoculars which he would lend us. I think we all expanded our knowledge.
The rains had been late so some of the tracks were very muddy but I had complete trust in Good Luck’s driving skills to get us through. All part of the adventure.
The company had chosen the hotels well . I wish we could have stayed longer in the tents in the Serengeti. That was my favourite place.
If we are ever able to go back I will certainly go with classic tours and specifically ask for Good Luck to be our guide.

Professional, detailed and excellent services and follow-up to see clients get the best.
My experience with Award tours has always been awesome.
They're reliable in their booking and reservations and will advise on the best hotels where you get value for your money.

Wonderful Sipi and pian upe Tour
I went on trip to sipi falls and pian upe game reserve with bright Safaris Uganda but it was more than our expectations after hiking the all 3 main water falls with a proffessional guide mike, we entere in the man made caves which were really beautiful, and also visited some vilages in pian upe foe cultural dancing.
We really loved this tour and enjoyed it to the fullest.
Bright safaris Uganda is highly recommended to everyone planing to go on a safari in uganda.
Thanks Meddy for giving us this memorable and owesome experience.

Awesome 3 day safari to Selous!
We did a 3 day safari to Selous with Kihindo Tours. It was amazing! One of our best experiences throughout all of our travels. The boat safari was fun and a nice intro to Selous. We travelled with 4 children (2, 4, 9, and 12) and they enjoyed cruising on the river looking at the wildlife. The highlight was definitely day 2 doing the all day safari drive. It was almost surreal! We saw lions, hyenas, giraffes, elephants, zebras, hippos, wild hogs, baboons, wildebeest, water buffalos, impalas, and much more. The walking safari was great as well, where we got educated on the plants and local uses of them. Our family would highly recommend Kihindo Tours! They are professional, knowledgeable, and overall great people. Thanks again Kihindo Tours! We hope to do more tours with you in the future.

I made it with Gecko Safaris
Gecko safaris are an excellent tour company to deal with. Right from the beginning our communications with Monica was easy and prompt. She had no problems modifying our tour to suit our needs better.
Once there, our driver/Guide Ben was excellent , He was very knowledge and personable. He made the long drives feel shorter. He would stop anytime we asked to take pictures and also when he saw things that he thought we would be interested in. Things that were interesting to us and that we would have missed without him.
Now for the tours. WOW. The chimps and gorillas are so magnificent. It is amazing how close they will come to you. The sounds of the chimps even before sighting them is super exciting!! The gorillas are so enjoyable to watch as they just do their own thing or sometimes even approach to get a closer look at you.
The swamp/community walk in Kibale is also a must do. The banana beer and home grown coffee are definitely a must. We did not get time to visit the doctor and the basket weaving homes.
Anyway, if you are nervous about booking such an expensive trip, please be advised that you will have absolutely no issues with Gecko Safaris.
If you can afford it time and money wise, book the extra gorilla day. You will want to see 2 different families as they are all different in behavior and appearances!
Thanks again to all the staff at Gecko Safaris
