Above and beyond our expectations
Our guide Omar did everything to make us happy - chose the secret pathways so we were all by ourselves when observing the animals. We've been very Lucky to see them all: Leopard, Cheetah, Lion, Hippo and so many more. Highly recommend!

Excellent communication, incredible guide provided, very organized, on time, professional, and safe
We booked a 4 day day gorilla and wildlife safari with Buyaga Safaris and had the most incredible experience with our guide Derrick. Booking the tour was incredibly easy and the itinerary was very clear and optimized the limited time we had in Uganda to see both the gorillas in Bwindi Goriall Forest and the incredible lions and other animals in Queen Elizabeth Park. The owner Peter was incredibly professional and flexible with our plans. He took care of all the transportation, permits, food, and lodge bookings for us. There also was a Boat cruise and Chimp tracking included in the plans. The lodges and food booked as part of our tour were very nice incredibly safe, and ensured water and food sanitation. The best part of our experience was our guide Derrick who was an incredible driver that knew all about Uganda. It was most impressive to see his navigation and safe driving all over Uganda for us. The transportation was very nice and included cold bottle water for us as well as unlimited WiFI in the land cruiser to have us connected the whole trip. It was really nice to be able to share out photos with family in real time as we completed each activity. Our guide Derrick was on time and went over the days plan with us. It was a perfect experience to have someone to show us the beauty of Uganda in such a short time frame. He also had an intimate knowledge of all the sights and Queen Elizabeth Park having been born and raised in the park. He also made our dreams come true of seeing the famous lions in the trees. We really look forward to requesting Derrick again and spending a longer trip with him seeing more of Uganda. Overall, we would give the highest recommendation to Buyaga Safaris for experiencing Uganda and seeing the majestic gorillas and climbing lions.

Absolutely perfect!
I can only recommend Bush-thorns Adventures and Safaris! Amazing experience. Both Joseph and Samuel are great guides, friendly people with a ton of knowledge to share. I loved the respect they showed towards the nature and animals, which sadly is not always the case with other tour operators, as we witnessed a few times.
I would especially recommend their service to people with deeper interest in nature, most of all zoology, as their knowledge is far beyond average. Our group consisted of people who all studied biology in the past (and most are still active in the field) and we were super pleased to be able to determine pretty much any species we saw and to learn more details about their ecology.
I also appreciated that the safari plan can be tailored to our needs, including the decisions about what locations to see, the budget and accommodation levels, vegetarian food options, pick up times and so on. The communication and planning was smooth and pleasant and allowed us to explore Kenya's national parks in a non-stressful way while still learning so much.
It was my first trip to Africa and it was awesome, thank you guys once again! Best of luck!

Fantastic Safari with an amazing guide and chef!
This was a great 4 day trip! Our tour guide Frankie was extremely knowledgable, continually giving us interesting facts about the country and the animals! Chef John was amazing, all his meals were delicious and just what we needed after a long day driving in the sun!

LOVELY TRIP
We had the trip of a lifetime with Amshar Serengeti Adventures John! Our tour guide reserved all of our meals and transportation, as well as the most exquisite lodgings. Our safari guide was well-informed and had an excellent eye for finding even the most elusive creatures. Choose Amshar Serengeti Adventures without a doubt if you're considering traveling to Tanzania.

The trip was really amazing. I got to experience the Beauty of Murchison Falls.
The team at Sentas was really helpful in planning and organizing the trip.
I got to Experience both Murchison falls and Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary while in Uganda.
The guide was also very helpful and I learned a lot.
Totally recommend.

Beautiful animal sightings and amazing guide!
We stayed for 3 days, 2 nights. We stayed at Lanchida Camp, which had comfortable beds with mosquitoes nets so we slept very well, and the food was good and pretty varied. Our guide was Ken and he was the best, we got to see a lot of animals and he was very patient and kind as we asked him to stop for every new animal we saw. He took us all over the park, chatted with us and answered all our questions. Very good driver too. Wonderful experience.

Our guide Ken was an absolute delight: knowledgeable, accommodating and a joy to be with. Loved him!
We booked our travel via Axis' official website and they were very clear with all the budget and services, they stayed in touch with us through all the reservation process, and were super accommodating about letting us pay cash once there. Keep in mind that they'll only take recent dollar bills (2017+) but that's the standard in Kenya. Our camp, Lenchada Camp, had some of the most comfortable accommodations we've had in a tented camp, with very hot water, warm comfortable beds, mosquito nets and excellent food, and all for a very cheap price. No wifi and light at limited schedules but those were included in pricier packages. And the safari itself was incredible. We upgraded to a 4x4 type transport for a small difference and we were very comfortable, our guide went out of his way to find great looking spots, and we saw practically every animal you can see at Maasai Mara! A beautiful experience, worth every cent.
