Another day in paradise, UGANDA
we were team of 5 members,we decided to choose Yaneta safaris as our gate to Uganda. it was flamboyant moment right from the commencement to the climax of the session. William our tour operator had vast knowledge and served us to the best of our needs which was not easy job,thanks to the the management all went well.
Upon our arrival we were already super excited because of the uniqueness of every thing our eyes caught.
We explored national game parks, (queen Elizabeth) and life was at its best,as the driver was punctual,knowledge and suggestive,we saw a couple of lions, elephants, different bird spices,zebra and giraffes, from there we went straight to lake Bunyonyi one of the deepest lakes in the world, beautiful flora and fauna plus fresh waters. we enjoyed local foods and drinks in Uganda it was amazing, one of a kind.
our last day, we made to incredible Bwindi impenetrable forest home of gorilla and chimpanzee trekking , this was one of the best moments in life as we saw animals close to human being in terms of behaviors and characters. once again thanks alot William and Bracius for the amazing reception, love and care,made us feel at home, your services were fantastic, thank Yaneta safaris.
We recommend Yaneta safaris for anyone interested in love for adventure.

On time, on budget, on the bird!
Mwangi wa Gitu, from ConQuest Adventures sacrificed his Christmas weekend to guide my wife and I around the south shore of Lake Elementiata. Mwangi was working his home patch: he knew every song, every call, every flash of color. That end of the lake is lovely, surrounded by good acacia woodland, less developed and less visited than the more well-known Rift Valley soda lakes. We enjoyed both flamingos (dozens, not thousands) and large groups of white pelicans doing their cooperative feeding maneuvers. Life birds for me included Curlew Sandpiper, Purple Grenadier, Little Rock Thrush, Red Fronted Barbet, and Coqui Francolin.
Mwangi also shared great insights into the complex local situation with property owners, cattle herders, and resorts all competing for influence over the few enforcers of conservation regs. He was a delightful companion, an expert naturalist, punctual, and affordable. We look forward to our next outing with him.

Our trip to Tanzania with Routes Kilimanjaro was very fabulous, everything was perfect as expected
The communication was perfect we had the replies on time, and on details, our guide was always on time, the game drive was at the high quality, we saw a lot of animals despite the ongoing heavy rains in Serengeti. We rate this trip as the top tour that we have ever made in our life time.
Tanzania is very beautiful country in comparison to most of the other countries that we have been before. Many compliment to Routes Kilimanjaro and the team who are very professional and understanding. We are missing the good words to share with other game lovers so that they can imagine the way we enjoyed on this trip to Tanzania with the best team of Routes Kilimanjaro Adventure. Thanks for this wonderful time in Tanzania.

5 Day Safari Hwange National Park
We did our safari from the 12th - 16th of March 2018. The trip was amazing, even better than we had hoped for. As this trip followed what had been a reasonably wet wet season, the park was very green and lush. This being the case the bird viewing was fantastic. I must admit we were unsure if we would have the opportunity to see a lot of large game due to the density of the bush at this time, but Mike and Bernard were able to use their wealth of knowledge of the area to ensure we were not disappointed. We had a very up close an personal experiences with lions, many elephant, giraffe, hippos, crocodiles, zebra and many antelope species.
On our trip we opted for walking safaris as well as the drives. This was definitely a highlight, and it got the adrenaline pumping seeing lion and leopard spoor frequently.
To top it off, Mike and Bernard made us feel very welcome back at camp and throughout the trip.
We cannot recommend using Khangela safaris enough, and if we are lucky enough to come back we will be using Khangela without a doubt.
Cheers!

Good access to Chobe, the Linyanti Marshes gave a different perspective. Water buffalo!!

It was a remarkable trip
It was with some trepidation I booked my 10 day trip with Lifetime Experience Safaris. I found Jesse-Tom responded almost immediately with any concern I had. I was greeted at the airport by my guide and driver Gerald (even though my plane was 6 hours late). Originally I was not going to go to Murchison Falls only do the gorilla trek but was extremely glad I did go. The number of animals in Murchison Falls NP was unbelievable. Then when I did the boat tour on the Victoria Nile the bird watching was superb. Over the course of the tour I found Gerald to be courteous and very knowledgeable. I would have to write a book for all the memorable experiences whether it was rhinoceros visit, the animals in Murchison, the gorilla trek (actual highlight of the trip), the chimpanzee tour, the golden monkey tour, the Bagodi swamp walk, the scenic beauty of the Murchison Falls, the beautiful Rwenzori Mountains or the fabulous meals it was a true Lifetime Experience. I would highly recommend the safari, the tour company and especially (if you're lucky enough) Gerald as your guide.

Wonderful Botswana / Okavango
A truly wonderful place for wildlife, abundant photo opportunities for elephants, giraffe, hippos, leopards, lions and vast amounts of birds. We travelled from Namibia into Botswana, stayed in Linyanti for three nights then down into the Okavango for another three nights. Magnificent trips on the water via mokoros led us close to hippos, bathing elephants and several types of birds including bee-eaters, storks and kingfishers. Great guides from the camps helped, lovely sundown drives meant we saw bat eared foxes and more leopards.
We did self-drive for two weeks - the roads are a 'challenge' through Chobe and Linyanti, basically deep sand. With hindsight we would've taken some off-road lessons before we went, we had to be rescued once by a passing Botswanan Army truck! If you don't fancy long drives, book with flights betwen camps. The road into Khwai where we stayed was more gravel.

Great opportunity to see BBC:s nature documentaries live!
- Wildlife and scenery were absolutely great, we got to see much more than we thought we would.
- Accommodations we very good. We spend some nights in tent and some in rondawells. Accommodation had everything we needed to have a good night sleep and to shower and wash clothes etc.
- Our guide Mr. Chris was fantastic! He was very professional and knew all about the animals and nature. He also told us many stories about the traditions in Africa. Our cook and "fixman" Mr. Lungi was also fantastic! I don't know how he did it but he managed to do dozens of things at the same time and we didn´'t need to worry about anything. Thank you Mr Chris and Mr Lungi!!
- The highlights that we saw are many; elephants, buffalo's, lions, rhinos, hyenas and even one snake! And of course the African nature itself, the colors, sounds and the darkness of the evening!
