Best of Africa with the support of an serious and very friendly and helpful safari agency
It was our first time in Africa and at the beginning of our planning, we were not sure if Wild Jungle Trails will full fill all our wishes, but we can say everything got fine. The communication was very easy and Teresa from the agency answered all our emails as soon as possible. The organisation of the Safari tour was well prepared und the accommodation wonderful and better than we had expected. During our Safaria we were guided from Fred. He is one of the most professional and friendliest guide ever .
Many thanks to Fred!
I can recommend to anyone this Agency. If we would come back to Uganda sometimes (and I hope so), I am sure that we will organize the next trip also with Wild Jungle Trails.
Thanks to all members of the team especially Teresa und Fred for two fabulous and amazing weeks in Uganda! :):):)

The tour operator did a good job. Everything was organized like we want.
We made a 4 days Murchison safari with our guide Tom. It was a great experience. Tom was avery good guide. He told us a lot about the animals Uganda and its people. In the nationalpark , he knew exactly where the animals are and so we had already seen the big five on the first day. We would book a tour again with Simba Africa Expeditions and then of course with Tom.
Thanks for the great trip

Great Safari, Greater expectations
My family and I did a 2 weeks Safari which we planned with the people of Travel Partners In Tanzania. It was a tailor made safari, since we have 2 small kids and didn’t want to drive for long hours and specific requirements for lodges camps. They literally took care of everything for us. Our jeep was new, clean and so spacious..! Our driver was so knowledgeable and kind, he really entertained us, we had so much fun. He was very sincerely attentive to our needs. We even learned some swahili.

Value for money
I had an experience of going on a private Kenya Safari with my wife in 2014 with Mr. Antonio as our driver and guide where we visited Ambosili National Reserve, Lake Nivasha & Masai Mara. During this memorable trip, we found Mr. Antonio well versed with local flora and fauna, fluent in english, humble and ready to make day and evening game drives with a smile and even more enthusiasm that ours. All in all I would recommend a Kenya Safari trip with Antonio and hopefully you will not be disappointed. Cheers!!

Best safari company ever!
From day one, it was fantastic. Our guide was Adrian, and I have not met a more patient, educated, and thoughtful man. He could rattle obscure facts about animals off the top of his head and would answer any question, no matter how simple. He knew exactly where to go for the best views of animals, and he was especially good about maneuvering around some traffic jams in the park, which is sadly becoming part of the safari experience. Because of Adrian, we saw ALL of the big five-- except a leopard. He even managed to find us a rhino, which was pretty cool. One morning we saw lions and hyenas fighting over a kill, and later we saw five lionesses walking with their 13 cubs. He knew exactly where to go for all of the action. Every single day of the safari was filled with amazing animal after amazing animal.

A very memorable family Safari
Although I recently saw quite a few bad reviews about It Started In Africa (ISIA), I have just returned from a fantastic 5 day safari (1 night Tarangire, 2 nights Serengeti, 1 night Ngorongoro) followed by 3 nights Zanzibar organised by Bernard and ISIA.
Bernard was very attentive, and I communicated with Bernard a lot via email prior to selecting him and his company. He had given us many suggestions about our possible itinerary although we had done a lot of research ourselves on parks, lodgings, timings etc. ISIA organised everything, including airport transfers, hotel bookings and informed lodgings about food restrictions.
Our guide and driver, Martin was also excellent. He was a mature gentleman but most importantly not reckless when driving which was a massive plus point as I saw lots of other drivers from other companies driving like mad through dirt roads. He was also very knowledgeable and knew where to go to find animals which is why we were very lucky to see the “Big 5” on a 5 day safari.
Luckily, we went off season so the queues at park entrances were not bad, but please note the bureaucratic nature of park staff and procedures is a Tanzanian government issue and not ISIA’s. As one of the previous reviewer states – Its Africa after all! So do not have any preconceived ideas about how it should work or comparisons with the western attractions. One must go with the African flow!
At one point our car developed a fault, so Bernard was willing to replace the vehicle if necessary. Luckily it required a 30min minor fix, so we were on our way quickly and not impacted much.
I would definitely recommend Bernard and his team as they gave a memorable safari and holiday!

Just Wonderful, The hosts goes above and beyond to make you feel really accommodated. Would definitely like to return to Uganda for a next visit. Africa Nziza Odysseys would be my first choice for tour operators. Special thanks to Bernard who was very wonderful and professional.
