Trip of a lifetime!
This was an extraordinary trip, a 7 day Safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo.
We were much more than pleased by our experience, the beauty of Kenya, his people and the wildlife.
Really big koodos to Mike-Mike, our guide and driver for the week and the owner of Best Memory Safaris, Isaak.
Both of them did a fabulous job. Hope to go back!

Safaris are tiring, but magical! Zanzibar is relaxing;)
Everything was very good, except the choice of our organizer (hello tanzania) who did not take care of us properly, and made us available old uncomfortable vehicles making safaris less enjoyable ...

Awesome safari in Kruger Park!
We took a 3 day Kruger Park Safari while on our honeymoon. Our guide was Nicky, and she was absolutely incredible. The drives were good, and the passion Nicky transmited was the highlight of our experience. The accommodation and food included was really nice. We definitely reccommend Wild Wing Safaris!

The service and expertise is unparalleled!
I am a travel agent in Atlanta. This was my second experience in dealing with this company. Back again after a seemless first experience. This time 21 passengers (executives) with many moving parts to say the least. Andy managed to stay one step ahead at all times. Incredible communication and response time. Using What’s app we were able to connect as our groups needs morphed every step of the way in real time. Rarely have I dealt with such a level of expertise and care. To top it off the execs are just back and to sum their reviews up “beyond anything they could have imagined!” BUCKHEAD Travel Partners highly recommends and we will be back!!

Definitely not to recommend
Following all the good reviews, i choosed dusty road safari and asked for Jeff as a guide.
He has been careless, had offhand remarks that made me feel really unconfortable for 3 days.
He was eager to finish the tour, rushed me to leave the park for the airport , where we have been 2 hours before expected time.
Horrible experience.

16 incredible days all over the country - from Kidepo-Valley to Rwenzori, from river Nile to Bwindi
At the beginning of December 2018 we decided to make an East-Africa-Trip and bought flight tickets to Entebbe via Addis Ababa and Zanzibar. We had the challenge to organize our trip to Ethiopia (7 days), Zanzibar (5 days) and to Uganda (16 days) in only 2 weeks before departure.
Fortunately I discovered the website www.safaribookings.com which enabled us to get offers from three tour operators in Uganda whithin 24 hours. Thanks a lot for this really good service.
Biggest thanks to Mukisa Safaris with Richard who made all our dreams come true. He fullfilled all our whishes and modificatiins in case of planning the 16-days-route and also to include a five-day-trek to the awesome Rwenzori Mountains. Every requests were answered promptly with good guidance.
At the Entebbe-Airport we were really warm welcomed by our two guides Joane and John and all of the Mukisa-Members. Then we started directly our trip with our 4x4 Toyota Van across the country to Kidepo Valley NP, to Murchison Falls NP, to Rwenzori Mountains and finally via Queen Elizabeth NP to the unforgettable Bwindi Impenetrable NP. Thank Joan and John we had a lot of fun, learned a lot about nature, have seen all the great nature and animals and people, we felt very safe and had most of the time a good wlan-collection. :) The accomodations at lodges or tented lodges were clean, nice and comfortable, the meals also were fine and delicious.
Uganda Is characterized by a very big variety of beautiful landscapes, unbelievable nature and very friendly people. From the awesome Rwenzori Mountains, to the great Bwindi Rainforest, from animals at river Nile to remote Kidepo Valley. We loved it very much.
So thank you so much Mukisa Safaris for this unforgettable yourney with deep impressions and long lasting memories. We wish you all the best, Joane, John and Richard.

10 Day Kenya Safari for Two
Prior to booking our safari with Kichaka, we contacted several other agencies through SafariBookings.com. We found Kichaka to be the most cost effective, as well as the most responsive. Stephen Odongo at Kichaka was a great communicator - he quickly and thoroughly answered our questions and tailored our safari to satisfy all of our requests. Stephen was wonderful to work with and removed any worries we had concerning our trip. He even personally met us at the beginning and at the end of our safari to make sure we had a wonderful time - thanks Stephen!
Our 10 day safari (from Jan 18-27, 2019) included Samburu, Ol Pejeta, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Navaisha, and Amboseli. We especially enjoyed the camps at Samburu, Ol Pejeta, and Masai Mara because we could watch wildlife from our tents and/or the lounge. Our least favorite destination was Lake Navaisha, but it was a necessary stop on our itinerary to split up a long drive. If we could do the safari over again, we'd probably choose to go to less camps but stay longer at each camp to reduce travel time in the van. That being said, each destination was unique and it would be hard to choose which one to eliminate. If you have the financial capability, it would be worth checking into flying between destinations to optimize your time.
Our safari driver was Sam. Sam was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to accommodate our requests. He ensured we saw the Big 5, and safely drove us as close to the animals as possible. We drove at least 80 hours with Sam during our safari, and quickly learned the importance of having a professional driver to navigate the challenging roads inside and outside of the parks. The driving was tiring, and we'd recommend taking frequent breaks and regularly checking on your safari driver to make sure they're feeling wide awake. On a safari, the days are long, exhausting, exciting, and unforgettable! It's important to feel safe, so don't be afraid to talk with your driver if you notice they're fatigued!
Overall, planning and executing our trip through Kichaka was a wonderful experience. We'd highly recommend using Kichaka to book your safari! Kenya is an amazing place to visit, and it is mind-blowing to see God's creatures in their natural habitats!!! Kwaheri :-)

Wonderful safari with Martin
Martin took us around Uganda and Rwanda last October, showing us local sites, introducing us to authentic cuisine and providing expert safari commentary.
One highlight was Lake Bunyoni, where we stayed in an amazing lakeside hotel. We swam in the blue waters and ate some amazing food.
Another highlight was gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Martin knows the guides well and can tailor the gorilla tour to your wishes. We sat with a family of gorillas for an hour, watching them eat and play. Fabulous!
