Excellent 6-Day Safari with Adventure 360
I recently returned from a 6-day safari to Kenya, visiting 3 separate national parks, using Adventure 360. All of my expectations were achieved.
This touring company offers different levels of safaris. They call them Basic, Moderate, and Luxurious, predicated upon accommodations, meals, beverages and "extras." My wife and I chose Basic as it was the most affordable. Basic accommodations were lodging with no frills. This was very clearly explained to us prior to the trip, so we knew what to expect. Meals too were basic. Good wholesome meals, but not gourmet. The meals were nourishing, filling and tasty.
Each day's safari was lengthy (all day) and we spotted numerous animals including the Big Five. The driver/guide was quite knowledgeable in pointing out various animals and explaining information about them.
Charity, the Program Coordinator assisted us through initial inquiry to the conclusion of our tour. She promptly answered all my e-mails and concerns. She alleviated my anxiety about using Adventure 360, which we never heard of before our initial inquiry. She is wonderful!
Based upon our experience, we highly recommend Adventure 360 for a very affordable safari.
In short, if you want to view a plethora of pachyderms and a large variety of other animals at the expense of foregoing Egyptian cotton sheets and cocktails on a laced tablecloth on the savannah, then Adventure 360 may be right for you. But if you must have fine linens with your lions, Adventure 360 can arrange that too. Just contact Charity.

Recommandable touroperator
We had a nice trip with Shoebill Safari’s too The Murchison Falls in the north of Uganda. We had good contact before the start of the trip and we were able to make some adaption to the standard planning. Our guide was a walking encyclopedia. He knew a lot of the country, the wildlife and especially the birds. By that the trip was very informative too.

AA Safaries & Tours provided excellent service, I managed to see all what I wanted in just 5 days
Sydah was extremely helpfull and patient in long email communication with me. I was well prepared and knew exactly what I want to see, but I had practically only 5 days in Uganda. My programm was intensive but in spite of long distances I managed to visit schimps in Kibale forest, I saw differents species of monkeys during Bigodi swamp walk. I hade unforgetable gorilla trekking in Bwindi. I did community walk in Bwindi and got aqcuainted with local people and their traditions. I saw liones relaxing on trees in Queen Elisabeth NP, as well as many other animals there. My driver and guide Barnabas was great! He is so professional, carefull, helpfull. Many thanks to him!
All hotells was chosen by Sydah and they were really very good, I could not wish better. Everything was so good that is feels almost unreal but it was true. I am very happy with my travel to Uganda and hope to make a new trip with the same company in near future.

Tour operator that takes care of you!
I traveled with my wife with Mumo for two weeks. We visited the parks of the south and the surroundings of Nairobi. We were the first Europeans to travel with this Nairobi tour operator who was recommended to us by our dear Masai friend. We had a great time: all our expectations were not disillusioned. Great professionalism but above all we felt welcomed and taken by the hand. Excellent locations and treatment. Mr. Wilson tried to help us to carry out a "mission" during the tour. Also the driver-guide Mr. Lenny has always been at our disposal. We can say that a great friendship was born! We recommend Mumo to all those who want to go to Kenya !!

Genuine Safari Experience
This was our first safari and we got all we could have wished for. From the preparation to the execution, the entire experience was professional and relaxed. We got to see all of the animals, and Elemesi made sure we got the best viewing spots.
Every day was very flexible, we got to choose when we would wake up and where we would go and for how long. Overall we had a great, genuine safari experience and we would definitely recommend this tour operator.

Encounter Africa Safaris helped me to have an unforgettable adventure!
Before booking this trip, I did a lot of research on the different providers for gorilla treks. I noticed that Encounter Africa Safaris had uniformly excellent reviews. Having ultimately booked a trip through them, I can add my strong endorsement for their services!
It all starts with Chris in the front office! I wonder if he ever sleeps as he seemed to always respond to my emails within a very short time of my sending them. He was patient and helpful with my many questions.
The three day trip itself was wonderful. Hannington, my guide/driver, safely drove me from Kampala to the lodge in Bwindi Inpenetrable Forest. While the drive was 10-1/2 hours in length, including a lunch break, it was well worth it to see the beautiful and varied Ugandan countryside. The accommodations a Rushaga Gorilla Havens Lodge was in a stunning setting. While the room was simple, it was clean, comfortable and with an amazing view. Dinners were quite nice, and they will pack a lunch for you to take along on the gorilla trek.
The gorilla trek itself was the adventure of a lifetime. It was harder physically than I had expected, having had to climb some very steep slopes, but it was worth every minute. The one hour with the gorillas was something I will never forget. It is hard to put into words, but it was simply amazing to watch them in their natural habitat.
Hannington drove me to Kigali, Rwanda the next day. It is a little under five hours with beautiful scenery along the way. I think it was ideal to experience both Uganda and Rwanda during this three day trip!
My thanks to Encounter Africa Safaris for helping me to have an amazing experience!
