Memorable experience
The safari was a unique experience for our small group of three. We were traveling together with Augustine, who always went out an extra mile to make our trip unforgettable and to meet all our expectations. Comfort and adventure were harmoniously balanced and we enjoyed every moment immensely. Many thanks also to Emmie for the kind contact in advance. Absolute recommendation for a safari adventure in Kenya!

7 day Sagari tour
Tubale has been absolutely incredible in organising our 7 day safari.
Annette was incredibly quick at replying in any interaction. When I first contacted her (on a Sunday) we received a detailed option within 2 hours. We decided to trust her judgment, and we couldn't have been happier.
The payment was secure, which was a big concern for me, and Annette didn't even chase us for the 2nd payment and was very chill.
She also provided incredible guidance on the clothing and other stuff we should bring. What a life saver that was, we always had what we needed to carry out the activities in a safe and pleasant manner.
At the end of the trip, Annette was adamant to meet, and that was so gracious of her. Showed that she really cares about all her customers, even if she lives far from where we were staying.
Regarding the details of the safari, we had Shafic as our guide. He went above and beyond, so if you book with them, make sure to see if you can have him as your guide (and tip him well!). Not only could he find the animals, but he was a safe driver and we had the greatest conversations about Uganda. From the food, to the people, customs and any socioeconomic topic you could imagine. He was also super interested in learning more about Europe and this made for the best conversations during drives and meals.
During the 7 day trip we did the following activities: Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls trek, Murchison Falls game drive, Kibale Chimp trek, local village experience (highly recommend RestInBanana man!), Queen Elizabeth game drive, Bwindi Gorilla Trekking.
Whilst all were incredible and we learnt so much, I must say that Gorilla trekking, Murchison falls and Ziwa are absolute musts. You cannot skip them.
I wish we had more time so that we could do a more extensive tour of the country which we absolutely loved. We will certainly be back to see what we missed (and probably do the Gorilla trek again!), and when we will, Tubale will be certainly who we ask to organise the trip.
To Annette and the team: keep up the amazing work and continue making magical trips for people from all around the world.

A wonderful experience
We organized an 8-day classic safari with Nature Travel Namibia. The management of the trip and any necessary customization was made very effective by Amber's availability, always ready to respond to our every request. The trip was very well organised, our guide Colandri was very knowledgeable and friendly, a nice person full of enthusiasm who showed us many secrets of Namibian nature. All in all an experience to be highly recommended.

Glad we saw the Big 5 with Mountain Warriors
We really enjoyed our 4-days safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Mountain Warriors!
Since the first contact, Rosemary was very diligent and answer all our questions very quickly. She helped us to find the best option within our budget. Regarding accomodation, we decided to stay in lodges for the 3 nights and we don't regret it. It felt really god to have a hot water shower and a confortable bed at the end of each day. The food was always great, including the lunch box prepared by our group's chef, Mariam!
We saw all the big 5 thanks to our guide, Osman. He was a very good driver who always made us feel safe. He was also a good entertainer and kept the group's energy up during our long drives. Osman is a great time keeper and ensured that we were always on schedule.

Considerate, kind and a good leader of all
I cannot say enough about how amazing Omary and his team were in guiding us to the top of Kilimanjaro. By the end of the journey we felt bonded to everyone. The team did everything to make sure we were safe, comfortable and well fed! Most of all they embodied Hakuna Matata, a positive attitude!

Everything perfect
We came to SA in June 2024, we went to Kruger Park from Johannesburg.
The trip was nice, perfect driver. The lodge (Kruger Adventure Lodge) was nice, great safari on the afternoon and incredible the day after.
Nice dinners at the lodge, unfortunately it was too cold to have a bath in the swimming pool.
Top experience anyway, also for our kids (6 and 3 years old), they enjoyed it so much.

Dan lifted our safari to the highest level - we had such a wonderful journey!
Arriving in an unknown continent, we felt immediately at ease with Dan. He is an experienced guide who knows the country, the interaction with people and the way things are done in Kenia. This gave us great peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip.
We didn’t have to worry about anything, if an issue arose, he would solve it without us needing to stay on top of things.
Besides that, he has years of experience travelling the national parks so he knows where to find the animals and how to decipher the codes used by other guides telling each other where the animals are located over the car radio’s. On top of that he is respectful towards the animals, acknowledging the rules of the parks, always shutting down the car engine as soon as the car is at a standstill and allowing you as much time with an animal as you want. By consequence we saw the big 5 by day 2 of our trip and so many more beautiful animals that we are still over the moon just by thinking back on our trip.
Dan will always make sure your trip is exactly what you like it to be, he wants you to be straight and clear about your expectations so that he can do his best to make them happen. For us European travellers (aged 35 and 72) that was a relief since we appreciate honesty and bluntness rather than excuses and attempts to smoothen issues.
If any of my friends or family wanted to go for a safari in Kenia, I would advise Dan without second thought. He is a person with the heart in the right place and someone you can really trust in an unknown environment, which is what we appreciated the most.

5 days safari in Amboseli, Tsavo west and Tsavo east
We went for a 5 days private safari in Amboseli and Tsavo with Kenya bush Expeditions. Our guide Geoffrey picked us up in perfect time at the hotel in Nairobi and few hours later we were already in the savannah and could spot the first animals. The trip was excellent and the accommodations better than expected, overall we are very satisfied with kenya bush organization and we certainly recommend Geoffrey as a guide.

Magical tour, expertly organised
Myself and my 2 children did a 3 night / 4 day Safari, organised and provided by Mellivora.
The trip was amazing. We visited Tarangire National Park, spend 2 days in the Serengeti (including a dawn balloon ride on the second day) and finished with a day in the Ngorongoro Crater.
Our guide was polite, courteous and diligent in showing us the best that the reserves had to offer and was very good with my children, making sure that they felt included in everything that we did and the places we visited. He was always on time, from collecting us at the airport when we arrived to being ready to set off each morning during the trip.
The accommodation organised by Fransisca was lovely and she took great care in making sure that this was a magical trip for us.
I would gladly recommend this company.
