Unforgettable experience
5/5

I spent months researching tour operators for our trip to Tanzania and ultimately chose Mega Wild - it was the right decision.

I was a bit skeptical and concerned because it was so affordable, but my worries were unnecessary.

Our first and last nights were spent in the most beautiful hotels with incredible service and kind staff.

The three middle nights were spent in a luxury tented camp. The camp we stayed at the first and third nights was great. It wasn’t as rustic as I thought it would be, but of course nowhere near luxurious. There were some issues with hot water - but other than that, the staff were amazing; so nice and kind, helpful and accommodating. My friend and I are pescatarian; fish wasn’t being offered at dinner but they made some especially for us. They even made some for us to take the next day in our boxed lunches. The beds were comfortable and the room and bathroom were clean.

The camp on the 2nd night wasn’t as comfortable. The floor was damp and resulted in our luggage becoming wet. They also placed us in a room with only one bed when we had specified that we needed two. No big deal, just minor inconveniences. But when you’ve spent 10 hours on very bumpy roads and are exhausted, the little things can feel much larger.

What made our trip so incredible was our guide, Martin Samweli. He was absolutely amazing. He made sure he scoured the terrain for animals that we would have missed seeing otherwise. He taught us so much about the animals and answered all of our questions.

Not only was he beyond efficient and extremely knowledgeable, he was one of the kindest men I’ve met.

I became ill one day, and he couldn’t have been more concerned, helpful, or caring.

On our final day in Tanzania we were supposed to travel to Uganda. That morning I became severely ill and needed to return home.

Martin did everything he needed to do to get us to the airport. My calls to the airline kept dropping, so he found a place where we could stop so I could get better reception. He helped in every way possible. I could see how genuinely concerned he was and sad for me that we had to cut the trip short.

He truly was incredible.

The thing that impressed me was the truthfulness in the information that was given. Many other companies stated that we would see the Great Migration as well as other animals. I had my suspicions, for how can anyone guarantee when the animals might actually cross? When I inquired with Mega Wild, I was told the truth, that we may or may not witness it. I think that’s what made my final decision to book with them.

There were other mid-level companies that offered the same trip. I was concerned that because our trip was several thousand dollars less that we might be disappointed, but it fit our budget. The only difference I noticed when we saw other travelers was the lunches they were served (hot food in chafing dishes with real plates and cutlery compared to our boxed lunches). Maybe they stayed in better camps - but we did not suffer in the least bit.

I will say you have to be diligent in asking questions before departing. We weren’t told about any vaccinations we would need or the fact that we would need visas. Thankfully we thought we might and knew to ask the questions. Our itinerary was also changed. We still visited all the areas that were originally planned, but weren’t informed by the company of the changes; Martin was the one who told us. Again, no big deal.

We had trouble obtaining our visas online (the system wasn’t working), but as soon as we informed the company, it was immediately handled for us, problem resolved. They were also very responsive and helpful when I needed to cancel the remainder of the trip.

I would definitely recommend Mega Wild to anyone who isn’t planning on taking a 1st class trip that costs tens of thousands of dollars.

It was a truly amazing trip and I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

Amazing Experience around Uganda
5/5

Amazing experience with Mega Wild Safaris, good organisation, they make our trip just magic. We provide them with our desired itinerary and accomodations and they sorted out everything very efficiently. Our guide Baker became one full member of our group and we just enjoyed so much travelling around Uganda with him. I cannot be happier after this holiday

A fanatic safari through Uganda and Tanzania
5/5

We loved our safari with Mega Wild. Anne was very responsive in our initial planning and with any questions we had along the way.
Both of our guides - Dalson in Uganda and David in Tanzania - were highly knowledgeable and helped to make sure we saw as many animals as possible.
Would highly recommend Mega Wild to anyone looking to book a safari.

Vacation of a lifetime
5/5

Recently went on a two week trip to Tanzania and Uganda with my best friend. It was truly the trip of a lifetime. From the beginning planning stages through the entire trip the communication with Anne from Megawild Safaris was excellent. She always answered all of my questions promptly and provided great information. We could not have asked for better guides in each country (Baker in Uganda and Minja in Tanzania) They both were amazing and shared so much information about the local people, animals and the country as a whole. We were able to spend as much time as we wanted just observing the animals we came across and allowing us to always get the perfect picture. We saw the big five and so much more. Of course the chimpanzee and gorilla trekking were highlights but the entire trip was more than we could have ever expected. The accommodations were all great with each location having something unique to offer. The price was extremely reasonable for everything that was included. Do not hesitate to book with Mega Wild Safaris.

Incredible
5/5

For our 12-day safari, there were two of us, and we had an unforgettable experience! We had the pleasure of observing numerous animals, sometimes at very close range. The lodges were exceptionally pleasant, and our guide and driver were incredibly knowledgeable.
