well-organized tour operator
I had a fantastic experience. Everything was well-organized, and our guide was excellent—knowledgeable, patient, and truly passionate about wildlife. He made sure we had the best opportunities to see and understand the animals, answering all our questions with enthusiasm.
We spotted a great variety of wildlife, including elephants, lions. The game drives were well-paced, allowing plenty of time to observe the animals without feeling rushed.
The accommodations were comfortable, and the staff was welcoming and attentive. Meals were good, and the overall atmosphere made the trip even more enjoyable.
I would definitely recommend this safari, especially thanks to the expertise of our guide, who made the experience truly special.

Well-organized, but under informative guide
The Super Eagles safari company was very communicative and organized. We also loved that our driver found many animals for us to see including lions, cheetahs, giraffe, elephants, and more. However, our guide’s communication was lacking. Our itinerary on safari changed without any discussion or comment from the guide/driver, and we expected him to offer more information about the parks we visited and the animals we saw. As a driver, he was great, but as a guide, we wanted more. I would give the company 5 stars, but our guide 3.

Nice safari in Masai Mara
4 day private tour in Masai Mara was overall very good.
Our driver Nelson was excellent at spotting animals and positioning the jeep at the right angle and light direction for photography, anticipating the wildlife movements remarkably and ahead of other vehicles, but not particularly talkative. We saw many species, but didn’t manage to see rhino or leopard.
Accomodation in Jambo Mara Safari Lodge glass twin cottage was nice, with good food, but the cottage did not have wifi, tv or ac.

Martin fulfilled our Safari dream
We toured Uganda on Safari for 12 days in January with Martin, who now owns and operates Wagatil. We confidently recommend his services as a skilled planner and knowledgeable guide of Uganda. Martin was excellent in his daily communication with us and often made recommendations that enhanced our Safari. We saw everything we wanted to see and more, and learned so much about Uganda, it's people, and of course the animals. We particularly enjoyed the two days of gorilla tracking, and Martin ensured we got to track a different family each day. Martin even arranged a fabulous tour for us to go see the Shoebill stork and we saw a mating pair! Martin is friendly, dependable, and safe. We trusted him completely and highly recommend his safari services.

Very beautiful
Overall, we had a very good stay. Everything was done to make the trip enjoyable. Here are, in my opinion, the positive and negative points.
Positive points:
- Beautiful parks, we were very lucky since we saw many animals including 4/5 of the big five
- The landscapes were beautiful in every way: savannah, Kilimanjaro...
- The hotels were perfect: view, restaurant, pool... everything was gathered to spend a pleasant stay
- The exchange with Pauline was great, she booked us a program adapted to our expectations
- Peter, the guide, was very kind and knew many things about animals
- The guide gave us a pleasant surprise: we had the chance to discover Masai Mara on foot in order to observe crocodiles and hippos
- The guide was a very good driver regardless of the terrain we used
- Peter took us to the typical Massai village, we could discover their customs and it was very enriching from a cultural point of view
Negative points:
- Peter was regularly late, and did not bother to warn us
- Transfer times entered in the program were not real, distances between locations are very long (sometimes double what was written)
- Peter was regularly tired, especially in the afternoon, which made the safari less enjoyable. We were afraid that he would fall asleep at the wheel and had to be vigilant.... We told him about this problem several times.
To conclude, we highly recommend this company which has many assets.
Thank you to the whole team for letting us discover your beautiful country.

A nice safari introduction among the baobabs
We had a fantastic experience on the first day of our safari in Tarangire. In retrospect it didn't compare to Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, but I still think it was a good safari starting park. Here we spent a long time marveling at seeing our first giraffes, our first elephants, and our first lions, but they definitely aren't present here in quite the numbers as the other parks. A part of this could be because we came in green season in February; Tarangire is much more ideal in the dry season compared to the other parks which are good in all seasons.
That being said, Tarangire did have some things that the other parks didn't have. In terms of scenery, it has a ton of really impressive baobab trees! We saw a whole lion pride walking right past our car (in other parks the prides were sleeping and when we saw lions on the move it was usually just 1-2 of them). We saw ostriches up close while in other parks we only saw them far away. We also saw a lot of vervet monkeys, while in other parks it was usually one at a time. This is the only place we saw hyraxes and the northern red billed hornbill.
Overall, it's worth a visit, I assume especially if you go in the dry season, but it'd be okay to skip it if you're short on time.

Great travel destination, Tanzania. Chilly nice weather in Arusha with Safari trips, sunny island beach vibes in Zanzibar, urban living in Dar Es Salaam.
3 places/experiences to have visiting Tanzania.
Furaha Tours did a great job with a good guide Gamma. Saw 4 out of the big 5 during my tour of Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire & Lake Manyara.
Tanzania seems generally safe.
Machala at Kendwa beach provides great jet ski service too. Great guy
