Far below expectations
I did the 1-night stay tour and it was quite a disappointment. Game drives are too short in duration (overall 5 hours) while 11+ hours are needed to go to Masai Mara and back. Period is supposed to be ideal to see the great migration, but we didn't get the chance to see it, as "there was not enough time to go to the river", which is practically a matter of tour guide decision! Staying at the outskirts of the reserve, close to the gate, automatically meant less chances of seeing all the animals. In fact we got to see just 3 out of the big 5 (lion, buffalo, elephant), and not even other animals that are supposed to be present in large numbers (cheetahs, crocodiles, hyenas etc), which doesn't make any real difference compared to going to Nairobi National Park which is right next to the capital. No comment on the accomodation or food, as these are definetely secondary issues for all visitors. If i knew before, I wouldn't do it.

Mokoro Tour and More!
I found Outdoor African Tour Safari on Lonely Planet and had every one of my expectations surpassed! Best part of our two week trip to Africa. When you book with OATS, you are not joining a large group; rather, your entire trip is personalized to you and your group. No one else will join you except your amazing guide! We had Boitumelo who was genuine, effective, and fun! And not in the over the top way- in the professional you know every detail has been attended to way.
We had such an amazing time on our mokoro tour from Maun that we tried to extend our trip another week to return to the area. Boitumelo responded to our inquiry within minutes and was regularly corresponding with us as we personalized an extended itinerary. He will be the first person I connect with when I return- not my travel agent. B knows every detail and tour company in the area to get you the best experience at the best rate. Every communication wowed us.
OATS has the experience and connections to make your trip whatever you want it to be and is small enough to personalize and personally take excellent care of you.

Great safari professionals. Amazing experience. Fully recommended!
Very good service and attention. The drivers are very experienced and will be able to provide you the tupe of experience you seek for. Full flexibility on demand if needed. Our driver thomas managed to spot a rhino while many failed to even find one. The food and service was great. Good food and all obtained from local markets to contribute local economy. The guide to kilimanjaro hike was also very nice and welcoming. Overall I fully recommend this safari and kilimanjaro tour operator for all types of adventures. Just send them an email and ask.

The service was amazing, the staff was friendly, the guides and game rides were action packed!
Moses and Allen made our safari experience very comfortable and thrilling. Both accommodated all our needs throughout our time in Uganda. We had such a wonderful time and was pleaslantly humbled by Uganda, its people, the food and everything there is to do and see. We will definitely be back as we feel there is so much more to be done and seen in Uganda!
Till next time,
Love and thanks from our family!

Best group safari ever!!
good organization and very nice people, our safari can't be better than it has been!
Communications with the tour operator were easy and fast, we joined a really funny and wonderful group safari, for two days Ngorongoro and Tarangire parks. The service and the accommodation were perfect, our driver was really nice and expert, thanks to him we saw a lot of animals and we spent two unforgettable days.
Great value for money, I recommend them.

Lovely week in Tremisana Lodge
Kruger Park Tours arranged a 7 day visit to Tremisana Lodge through an agent. All included: pickup, dropoff, food and safaris. It was all well organised. I enjoyed my stay and the way Kruger Park Tours handled everything. They are very prompt in answering when you have a question, always friendly in their mails. I had to change my pickup-location just a week before I started and it was no problem at all!! I love the way they work.

Perfect safari!
We, 2 adults and our two kids, are still totally impressed.
It was our first trip to Kenya. We were interested by the many positive reviews. Wrote an email and after only a few hours we even received a Watts App call from Martha in the office in Mombasa! From the beginning there was a sound direct information and well-prepared tour to our liking. from very responsible, punctual pick-up to the really remarkable quick reaction after our 8-hour flight delay made us feel safe and secure right from the start. We booked the Comfort Lodges, which were all highly recommended. We have made the deposit by bank transfer in euros and made the balance right before the start of the safari. Everything worked smoothly !! I have to emphasize our driver Pascal here! Human and with lots of background information, he was the perfect companion for our 10-day tour. He has turned his attention to our wishes and made our safari a perfect experience. We opted for the jeep / pop-up roof, built to be sturdy for the roads, recommended for wildlife viewing and comfort. Natural World Kenya Safaris deserves every point and we thank you for a great holiday. At the end of our trip we were personally called by the boss to inquire about our safari and our satisfaction.

Excellent travel consultant: Very flexible & responsive
Kerry helped us create an itinerary to Masai Mara safaris & Gorilla trekking in Rwanda. Despite multiple rounds of itinerary changes from our side, she was very flexible and helpful in providing information as well as details we need for our trip.
Our trip was amazing and we really enjoyed our time in Kenya & Rwanda. Will definitely come back to Pembury for our next trip in Africa.
