EPIC
The service was excellent, always on time, the guide was up to our expectations. Even in the rainy season we have seen a lot of animals and that with a lot less vehicles in the park. ;)
We had a great time with this agency, for a very good rate. I highly recommend them. The lodge was excellent, we chose Ashnil camp.
I wish them all the best for the future

Well organised, very friendly and professional.
I had a great time with Kruger Park Travel (Outlook), everything were well organized from the transfer from the airport to the Lodge then to Kruger Park, professional game rangers, the accommodation had the comfort standard and was clean, food was ok, further more we had a free panorama tour, I would recommend to travel with Kruger Park Travel.

Efficiently organized safari with a fabulous, knowledgable, friendly guide!
We used Buffalo Safari Camps to plan and organize our 7 day trip in Uganda. Tim was very easy to work with and came up with a wonderful itinerary that included a night in Entebbe then flying to Kidepo and overlanding from there to Murshinson Falls, the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and back to Entebbe. Our son ended up joining us at the last minute and Tim was able to seamlessly include him on our itinerary.
Our trip was amazing! Tim’s friendly driver, Ellie, welcomed us to Uganda and transported directly to and from the Karibu Guesthouse in Entebbe which was very helpful. After our stay in Kidepo we were picked up by Paul who was our guide and driver for the remainder of our trip. Paul took great pride in sharing information regarding the villages we passed through, identifying all the animals and birds we saw, and answering all our many, many questions. He went out of his way find rare animals and waited very patiently while we took our time watching the wildlife. He made sure our time in Uganda was very special.
Asante Sana!

A week in Namibia
This is the email we sent to our Travel Agent, Sandi Bird.We had been on a group safari elsewhere in Africa, and had asked Sandi to arrange a week in Namibia following this safari. We made an error as to the date when our fist trip ended (this was not booked by Sandi) and our Namibia Safari was to start. We contacted Sandi as soon as we realized this (only 2 days prior to our planned departure for Namibia) and she promptly and expeditiously rearranged flights and accommodations for us which saved the day.
"Thank you again for rearranging flights, etc. for us after our little error. It worked out great. The Galton House was fine, but paled by comparison to the Olive Grove. The accomodations were great, the staff was wonderful, and the food, perfect. Ate our first Oryx here.
The two camps were both great in their own ways. Although Little Kulala was very posh, we actually enjoyed Desert Rhino more. We had our own private guide, Herunga, who was amazing. At 26 he was a wealth of knowledge, had a great sense of humor, and was a true gentleman. One could easily tell that the rest of the staff really enjoyed what they did and this translated to a very enjoyable stay for the guests.
Our only regret on the trip was not seeing more of Namibia. Could have stayed another 2 weeks to see the Skeleton Coast from the ground (the flight over was spectacular, perfect weather, no fog, got to see both shipwrecks and the flamingos), Damarland, and Etosha. Maybe another time. I think our next trip to Africa will be to see the gorillas in Uganda or Rwanda (heard the daily permits are now up to $1500 USD) and the migration in Kenya or Tanzania.
We will certainly be happy to recommend you to anyone planning a trip to southern Africa.
Thanks again,
Craig and Jeri"

Life changing experience
I was apprehensive about traveling alone but Gorilla Tours were always there to answer any questions I had they organised all my ground transport, the accommodation was fabulous and I always felt safe. The drive to the Bwindi National Park was long but my driver was accommodating stopping so I could take photos and meet the locals. This is an amazing life experience that I will forever be grateful for, I would recommend it to anyone and really hope to go again one day. I would totally recommend Gorilla Tours.

A Perfect South Africa Vacation with Pembury Tours
Everything just went perfectly from planning to final itinerary to actual tours! Thank Laurette for her wonderful service. She is extremely responsive and flexible. Within one and two emails, she adjusted standard package to meet our requirements and acted on it quickly based on our preference (good camp is often gone quickly). Laurette was also very friendly and followed through everything we discussed in the emails. She proactively shared all necessary information, such as how to prepare the trip, safety tips and give us advice. We enjoyed our tour in Cape Town very much! it was exactly what we were looking for! V&A hotel was great too! The candle lights experience in Notten camp was unique! We not only saw big five in three days, but also saw baby lions, baby giraffe, baby Reno, it was just amazing! The transportation arrangements were very smooth which made very easy for our traveling. We definitely recommend Pembury tour and Laurette to anyone!

Marvelous experience
Though we spent only an hour with the gorilla family, it was a perfect experience. Our family was the "good family," with two silver backs, a couple "teens," mom and a sister, and a baby not quite a year old. It took only an hour of trekking for us to reach our family in the dense forest. And the Gorilla Valley Lodge with its' magnificent views made "gorillas in the midst" come alive. I also stayed at the lodge where the author of "Gorillas in the Midst" did her note taking and relaxing. Another perfect setting, with a lodge that had a bar, a fire place, and a lodge dog that was very friendly. Took the Batwa Trail, and loved the sights. And, finally, the folks at the Travelers' Lodge near the airport were more than accommodating, with an evening dinner on the lawn in the courtyard. The guide/driver was charming and I loved driving through Uganda and taking photos of these charming people. All this at an affordable price.

Impossible to have been any better!
Gorilla Tours was exceptional in its communication, friendliness, and quality. The tour was tailored exactly to our needs and requests. The lodge was among the best places I have ever stayed. The jeep was clean and in perfect condition. When my wife casually mentioned she would like to see baby gorillas, our guide, Ronald, made sure to get us into a group that had had recent births. Though we expected to hike a little to see the gorillas, we were face to face with them within about 10 minutes. Our proximity to them and the photo opportunities were beyond anything we could have imagined... literally a few meters from us. We spent the rest of the day exploring the countryside and meeting the local farmers and villagers in the valley which was wonderful. I give the highest recommendation to Gorilla Tours.
