Meanda Uganda is the best choice for your adventure tour in Uganda
I had a fantastic adventure experience with Meanda Uganda. Nick Brant can make your tour unforgettable ! He can literally tailor the perfect tour according your needs.
Together with another two skilled motorists we made a loop for 6 days , 1400 km riding adventures bike!! Yes , you read well! Meanda Uganda can organize tour also with adventure bike!! Every day we reached the camping point with alternative routes mostly off-road trough forest, mountain and beautiful wildlife. Meanda Uganda followed us with truck (when possible) as back up in case of problem with bikes . Bikes are in perfect condition didn’t need any rescue.
All camping sites are equipped with showers and toilets. Sleep in the tent or in a room on proper bed is your choice.
Meanda Uganda provides any stuff you need! Tent and sleeping bag . The truck is fully equipped with kitchen to prepare delicious meals in the evening and enjoy the time around a fireplace . Uganda is an incredible green country with beautiful people I never felt in danger.
The service and cost of the tour depends on your request, where to sleep what eat , what visit, some national parks are not free. Meanda Uganda in the person of Nick will make you happy to spend your money in best way price is honest and adequate.
Meanda Uganda is definitely the right choice for a perfect adventure tour !!!

fantastic experience with Soul of Tanzania
when I've started to look for a safari tour, in the beginning of 2023, I've read a lot of reviews. I't looked like Soul of Tanzania would be the perfect choice as operator. And they were. From the very beginning, more than 1 year before the travel, the tour planner José gave me all the information I needed. He was very solicit, answering me on weekends, hollidays, etc. We went smoothly till the beginning of the tour. We started in Kenya with our guide Nick. He was a fantastic guide, very bold at the time of running through the savanna to track the animals and very concerned of the best spots/position to the photos/movies. We managed to see a cheeta hunting in Masai Mara, something very rare, for instance. But we've been in lots of places in Masai Mara and saw lots of animals (also in the previous Lake Nakuru Park, the only place we saw rhinos). Hotels were very good (we took the medium board) and staff was always very friendly. We've stayed at Lake Nakuru lodge (very good food) and supposed to stay at Ikeliani Camp at Masai. They've sent us to another hotel, since Ikeliani was flooded recently. Downside in the tour because we've not been communicated previously. But the food was so good (looked like an international restaurant of a big city) that compensated any complaint we could have. Masai Mara is a fantastic park, lot's of animals, including cats, elephants (we crossed with a group of over 30), giraffes, etc. We've crossed the border to Tanzania to Serengueti Park with our guide Cleopa. We've stayed 4 days with him. In some days we saw a lot of animals, over 15 lions in total, and also dedicated a lot of time to find a leopard, finally managed to see one (they are very rare to see), thanks to the his effort. We've stayed at the Acacia lodge, inside the park. Very good hotel, some shower power issues, but the staff very friendly and the food good (not as the previous two). Ngorongoro crater park was the next, not a glorious day as per the animals, but it was ok. Serena Lodge is a fantastic hotel with a great food and staff. We kept going and Lake Manyara Park was our last park in Tanzania (we've stayed in Escarpement Lodge, very good, with a good food). The park not as brilliant as Serengueti, but guess what: returning to the park entrance we saw another leopard, this time on the road in front of us! Crossing the border back to Kenya, our guide was John. Very nice person, we've stayed at Kibo Safari Camp, very good also, mainly the staff and food. Amboseli Park is also beautiful, with lots of birds and elephants (the biggest number among all the parks) with the landscape of Mount Kilimandjaro behind with acacia trees. Beautiful photos with a line of elephants, acacias and the mountain. At last, it was a fantastic 11 day tour, unforgettable, more than 1100 photos and 6h of filming. Don't hesitate in hiring Soul of Tanzania for this. They are quite responsible and safe. The 6 parks visited worth everything. Is a lifetime experience, beyond any doubt.

A truly unforgettable experience!! 🤩
The safari tour organized by Sunset Adventure is by far one of the best and most exciting experiences we have ever had!
We knew it would be a fun and unique trip, but our expectations were definitely exceeded.
The national parks we visited were Arusha NP, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, while the last day we visited the villages of 2 local indigenous tribes near Lake Eyasi.
Our guide MARK was THE BEST!!! 😃 You can tell he loves his job and puts a lot of passion in what he does. He was always perfectly on time, very kind, respectful, helpful, patient, friendly and ready to answer all of our questions. He gave us lots of information on the surroundings, the wildlife, the animals and their habits, local culture and fun facts on everything we were seeing. He's an expert guide and he could spot animals from miles away, to then drive us really close in order to observe them at just a few meters' distance. At each sighting Mark knew exactly where to stop so we could get the best view, knowing in which directions the animals would move: they would often walk right towards us and come really really close to our vehicle!
Mark really did his best to find and show us all the wildlife we were wishing to see, and he definitely succeeded! We never would have expected to see all of the following animals, and almost all of them were really close up 🤩😍😃: lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, buffalos, hyenas, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos, warthogs, jackals, vultures, eagles, wild cats, mongoose, ostriches, numerous species of antilopes and gazzelles, waterbucks, flamingoes, many types of exotic birds, baboons, many species of monkeys, wildebeests, etc.
Many of the animals had babies or cubs, and the most touching and exciting sighting of all was a mother cheetah who had just killed an antilope and was letting her little cub eat it 😍
The vehicle was fully equipped with a pop-up roof, water bottles, charging sockets, radio communication, books for wildlife identification, many pockets, 2 spare tires (one of which we used) and really fun to ride on.
All the lodges we stayed in were really nice and comfortable, and the 3 nights we spent in the tented camps in the national parks were thrilling, with the nocturnal wildlife noises adding to the excitement. Each day we were given breakfast, an abundant pack lunch and dinner.
Overall we had an awesome time and we're extremely satisfied. We just left and we're already missing everything!
We highly recommend Sunset Adventure Safari, you won't be disappointed 👍🏻

Janet was awesome! She was kind, professional and maintained good communication with us throughout
Our trip was amazing!! My sister and I truly enjoyed ourselves!! As I stated Janet was awesome! She kept the lines of communication open and was flexible throughout the planning process. Janet organized a great itinerary for us. We got to see “The Big 5” and much more! We loved the Maasai Mara the best and wish we stayed more days there. Our driver Anthony was great- I recommend him as well. He was very knowledgeable about various things throughout our safaris and kept our drives entertaining. We have loads of beautiful photos and memories to last us a lifetime!! I hope to come back in the future and would use Janet’s company again on a heartbeat! 😊

SPECTACULAR, WONDERFUL and EXCITING safari, every moment was UNFORGETTABLE
This trip was an intense adventure, it filled us with joy, excitement, trepidation, emotion. We were lucky enough to be able to see the wonders that creation gives us. In the Eden that is Tanzania we felt small and vulnerable, full of emotion.
PERFECT organization, we felt welcomed, listened to and pampered.
TOP lodges, some so beautiful that they can be compared to boutique hotels or charming hotels.
Renato was a SPECIAL guide, a friend,
THANK YOU Renato
THANK YOU Magilani

Absolutely amazing guide and perfect tour!
My mom and I had an incredible experience. Our guide Geeman is the king of the jungle! He knows where the animals are, and more importantly, where to take the perfect pictures! When he knows there are lions lying somewhere, he drives to the spot fast and accurately, which allows me to take pictures at the best timing and got me hundreds of likes on social media😊
Walter has been so kind and helpful along the way! Geeman and Walter helped us find everything we wanted to see: lions eating buffalo, leopards, pregnant cheetahs, hyenas, elephants and flamingos with Kilimanjaro…
Also thanks to Cynthia for being very responsive and helping us book all the hotels we wanted to stay with reasonable price.
Thank you all for the great help and the perfect tour!

Humphrey was informative, thoughtful, and gifted guide to our group!
Tanzania Choice Safaris was a joy to work with! They worked with our limited budget and timeframe to give us an amazing two-day safari. They arranged all the details, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, and provided an amazing experience to see the depth and beauty of the Tanzanian wildlife and landscape. Our guide was informative, flexible, and a great driver for our group!

Very professional and outstanding service during our adventure
First time for our family safari so we truly appreciated the professional preparation and organisation. Outstanding communication throughout our adventure and always quick replies through email and WhatsApp.
What really stood out was our guide Patrick. Loads of experience and a true animal lover. Allways sharing knowledge of the animals and always an answer to all our questions. A very good driver that made us safe through all the challenges of the wilderness. We all miss him already.

An amazing 7 days on Kilimanjaro
Our guides Muntari and Frankie, and the rest of the crew gave us an amazing experience on the Machame route up Kilimanajro. They looked after us every step of the way and made it the trip of a lifetime for our group. The views, the hiking, the local knowledge—they couldn't have done a better job on any of it.
Some great things about the trip:
- The personal comforts given to us each day, like being woken up for tea in our tents each morning, and hot water to wash ourselves before/after hiking, were fantastic
- Massive meals for breakfast/lunch/dinner that tasted amazing and kept us fueled throughout the trip
- Setting up a private toilet for our group at each of the campsites (100% needed)
The best thing they did was the attention and care shown to our safety. Even though several members of the group fell ill with altitude sickness, they made sure we were in capable hands and everyone had a great time.
Lastly, Amani deserves a personal shoutout for doing a fantastic job as our waiter. He was a great laugh and really made the trip unforgettable.
