It is well organized and trust able tour operator.
We spent very nice time, and we had chance to see mountain gorillas in Bwindi NP. It was fascinating to have possibilities being near the group of gorillas family in the rain forest. Encounter organized everything (starting from buying permits, transportation and accommodation) very well. They bought permits for us in advance and then our guide picked up us from our hotel in Kampala. Transportation and accommodation were comfortable and .... the day when we see gorillas was ... amazing. I can recommend Encounter as a trust able agency...... just go and see mountain gorillas.

Fantastic Trip - Very Professional
Myself and a friend booked a safari to coincide with a trip to Uganda. I was very impressed with the planning team. As our personal plans (outside the safari) were constantly changing, we needed to keep changing our safari. For this Achieve (Jolie) were excellent. It was possible to change our plans by email and the communication was excellent.
On the safari our guide (Patrick) was very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We really enjoyed our time with him and saw and learned a huge amount. The accommodation in Pakuba was clean with good food and right in the middle of the bush. In fact, the accommodation was better than some supposed 5* places we stayed in at Entebbe
Overall, I would definitely recommend Achieve Global Safaris

Wonderful!
We had a great experience chimpanzee and gorilla tracking in Uganda. The trip was well planned and paced well.
We had a professional driver called Jason who was fun. He kept to time and ensured we had a good time.
I recommend Encounter Africa and driver Jason to adventurers seeking the same thrill in Uganda!

Amazing safari, Ambros is the best
Everything was well organized. We took a 6 days safari , the best part of it was Masai mara, where rhanks to our driver we got to see allbig five on the second day. The staff is highly attentive, camps and food were ok. In general, great value for money. I dont believe that some non-budget company could provide a better experience.

The life time experience!
The safari through the national park was amazing, I can't want to go back to this beautiful country with spectacular wildlife and nature. Everywhere people were very nice. The communication and the organization with enchanting Tanzania safaris was excellent, very friendly and knowledgeable guide ever. I would recommend this company. The most favorite was Serengeti to see the whole migration of Gnus and zebra.

An extremely professional friend
For us Africa Nziza Odysseys had a perfect balance in being very personal yet very professional.
Bernard made us feel comfortable the moment we met, which is very nice when you arrive in a new country. He arranged excellent accomodation, helped showing us Stone Town and gave us a lot of information about places to visit in Zanzibar as me and my girlfriend had planned to explore the island with just the two of us. He laid out a perfect travel itinerary so we could swim with dolphins, see beautifull caves and the best beaches and sunsets in Zanzibar. For me personally, Bernard showed me his clients are absolutely his top priority as he booked our flight back to Nairobi in advance with his own money. Our initial plan was to go back to Nairobi with the bus but later we decided a flight had our preferences. My creditcard didn't work and without any trouble he insist to help us out. Just beause our comfort was all that matters to him. I can recommend Africa Nziza Odysseys and I will contact them without a doubt for our next trip to East Africa.

our tour leader john was fantastic. great knowledge of the animals and very flexible
The tour of the major game parks was fabulous. We got to see every thing even though this is not guarantee. Some of the big surprises were the elephants- a herd of 100 crossed the road in front of us - eating as they walked. We saw the great migrations of wildebeest and zebras where they slowly follow the good food. We saw a lioness in a tree in a park where that is not common so very lucky there. Also saw leopards and cheetahs. The hippos were hilarious with about 40 of them in a pool that could only just hold them.

Amazing 8 Days with Michael of ToKenya Safaris
Our group of 6 just returned from 8 days touring some of the most amazing places in Kenya we could possibly imagine. We were fortunate Michael was assigned to us. He was the perfect guide for us. This guys has amazing eye sight and the confidence of someone who has done this for a while. He provided keen insight when we asked questions and understands the intimate behaviors of the animals we wanted to see. Examples of this happened on our very first day of game viewing. An elephant made movements near our vehicle. Michael stopped and told us the elephant was signaling his intent to cross the road. At the same time another vehicle in front kept blocking the elephant oblivious to the cues. Michael knowingly backed up very slowly. Sure enough the elephant crossed in front of us. The next we were watching a sleeping leopard. Nearby a female hyena was pacing about. Quietly Michael told us something was about to go down. The leopard smelling the hyena got up. While the other cars stayed still, Michael slowly made a u-turn allowing us to see up close this gorgeous leopard saunter across the road towards the hyena was. Only our vehicle got that close-up view of the leopard, all because of Michael’s amazing instincts.
We benefitted from Michael’s experience and sense of humor. Spending 8 days with him gave us deep respect for a true professional who loves his job. We highly recommend ToKenya Safari and ask for Michael if he is available."

Outstanding attention to detail and truely caring!
We used them for a Kilimanjaro climb and a safari. They were very accessable for questions before our trip and our guides we're very knowledgeable about what to expect and any questions we had while on safari. I highly recommend them!
