charming, but not reliable and cheating
Very bad end to initiallly good experience!
We had an almost 4 weeks trip in Uganda and Rwanda.
The company owner (Meddy) drove us from Rwanda to Uganda and back. We we visited friends, the Murchinson Falls National Park including Budogo Chimpanse Tracking, and Mambasa Wet Lands, toured Rwanda (Musanze, Rubavu, Rusizi, Huye and Kigali). In the ed we did a 1,5 days tour to Akagera National Park. For the last trip, an employee was employed driver.
First everything went well and we had really great experiences. (Not the Company Owner is driving very fast.)
The travel was planned by myself and covened with the Company Owner and we paid in advance. For the last trip the company owner did not only ignore what we had convened, he changed the lodge, which made a big difference, but he did not tell us before and did not give a clear explanation, after questioning. The communication was very bad. I got very angry.
But more important in the end we had a problem about payment.
Arriving at Akagera Park Visitor Center we learnt to our shock, that the companys credit card was not charged suffiently. No explanation. The company owner asked me to pay and he would reimburse me. I trusted him, because he had done this before and he was friend of friend...
But in this case, Meddy first started to delay and to question details.... He was back in Uganda, I was in Rwanda. He did not pick phone. We texted..... In the end he reimbursed but in tranches and up to today incompletely, and only after many discussions, reminders and big delays!!! Up to now there is a still a balance due that he did not pay. He keeps on promising, and then not action but silence.
This startedd early February and we are not mid March!! This is not professional.
Advises: Don't pay all in advance, don't pay on his behalf and do not rate until the very end of the trip and all bills settled!

Lovely trip to Murchison Falls with Meddy!
Beyond Travel truly saved my trip when another company cancelled on me for being a solo traveller! In the space of a few days Beyond Travel had quickly organised for me to go to Murchison Falls for 3 days. The communication was excellent and Meddy was a wonderful guide to have as a solo female traveller! I got to see so many animals and loved the boat cruise and especially!! Highly recommend this company as they were very organised, helpful and made sure I had a wonderful experience despite being solo!

Best company I could have chosen
The gorilla trekking was an amazing adventure. Everything worked smoothly. Best guide (Meddy) you can think of. Everyone was very friendly and the accommodation had good food, greatly views and comfy beds.

Great guy, friendly, helpful, honest.
We had great experiences and lovely days in Uganda and Rwanda. Ahmed, our organizer, is very friendly, always in a good mood and was always there to help us with all of our concerns. We felt in good hands with him and would book him again at any time.
Many thanks.
