Amazing safari and trek to Kilimanjaro!
We travelled for 2 weeks this summer (last week of July & first week of August) with Easy Travel. We chose them after reading all the great comments on Tripadvisor, and we were very happy of our choice!
We've done the Tanzania Safari – Wildlife Encounters (6 days private tour / basic) followed by Mt. Kilimanjaro Trekking – Machame Route (8 days small group tour / basic). What an experience!!! It was 2 of the best weeks of our lifes!!
For the Safari, we had an amazing guide, Ima, who knew absolutely everything about wildlife: any animals, any birds, any plants. And also the history of Tanzania. Thanks to him, we could spot all the animals we were hoping to see: lions, elephants, giraffes, hippos, zebras... And we had some very good food also, thanks to the cook, Gerald! The hotel where we spent the first night, Planet lodge, was very comfortable. And the tent for the next nights was comfortable too. So it was an amazing week of safari.
For the Kilimanjaro, we had booked a small group tour. But finally, it was only the two of us. We had an amazing crew to help us to climb the mountain: Frank, the lead guide, Jackson, the assistant guide, the cook, and 7 porters. So 10 persons in total! Climbing the Kilimanjaro was an incredible experience and we did it!!! We would not have made it to the top without Frank & Jackson. They gave us some great advice all along the way and we could see that they love this mountain, their job and they were always doing their best to make sure we could enjoy our experience and make it to the top.
So thanks to Easy Travel and your great team for those incredible 2 weeks. We definitely recommend them!

A unique experience
From the start Mark had been quick to respond to my emails even after changing my mind several times about various routes and number of passengers.
When we arrived Patrick and Mark were there waiting to meet us at the airport. They were friendly and knowledgeable about the area. During the course of the tour, Patrick made sure that the hotels catered for all our needs, especially my parents unusual dietary requirements. He would stop and buy local food along the way for us to sample, including red bananas!
It was a pleasure touring Uganda with Achieve Global Safaris, a unique and wonderful experience. Thank you so much for all the great memories.

Most amazing trip of my life! 10 out of 10
We travelled to Tanzania in August and had the trip of a lifetime. My grandmother had gone on Safari in Tanzania twice before and had Naiman as her guide both times. Naiman was our guide too and he couldn't have been better; he was so knowledgeable about the animals, environment, culture, etc. and would have answers for all of our questions! Naiman knew what we wanted to see and made changes to our itinerary to make this happen. The accommodations we stayed in were spectacular, and always provided us with delicious food and relaxation at the end of a long day in the bush. I couldn't believe how many different animals we saw, and Naiman knew the parks so well he was able to bring us to certain places he knew we would see specific animals. The trip overall was incredible and we didn't want to leave. I recommend Quest Horizon Safaris to anyone who wants an unforgettable safari experience in Tanzania. 10 out of 10 for everything!

Awesome Experience in Africa
The experience with Acheche Tours was awesome. They not only booked best Hotels in Different places they even managed the best view rooms for us. Chartered flights were in time and the car was good too. Their guides were professionals.

Simply the best holiday I have ever experienced
We had a four day safari that took us to Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Ngorongoro. The safari was amazing and there were so many unforgettable moments. Our safari guide picked us up from the airport in Kilimanjaro and dropped us off when we departed. From the moment we landed, we felt very well looked after and experienced the wonderful Tanzanian hospitality. Our guide was very knowledgeable, courteous, funny and made us feel really comfortable. He seemed to have a sixth sense when in the National Parks and clearly knew a great deal about animal behaviour.
Everything ran smoothly and the accommodation lived up to our expectations.
If you are thinking of booking a safari, I have no hesitation in recommending Lion King Adventures. Ours was definitely a once in a lifetime experience.

Wonderful Safari of Uganda and Gorilla's in Rwanda
My wife and I have just returned from an absolutely amazing 16 day tour of Uganda and then to see the gorilla's in Rwanda. This has been the best experience of our lives and cant wait to come back and see more!
I was, initially, nervous about booking with a non Uk based company but Jackie at Katona was wonderful, answering all of our questions and helping us develop our tour. When we arrived to meet our absolutely brilliant guide, Caesar, at the airport we were immediately reassured and felt secure in the knowledge that we were with a company that would look after us and make our trip the best it could be.
Our tour was busy, but thats what we wanted as there is so much to see. Our view of Uganda is cemented as one of the best places to visit, the people, wildlife and scenery is all spectacular.
We opted for the "luxury" range of accommodation and were, in general, thankful of this as after a long day of seeing the wonders of the area you are in a bit of comfort goes a long way! Some of the places we chose were more mid-range by European standards but there is limited choice and overall we are very happy.
I would recommend Katona Tours to all and will happily share our experience with you should you wish to contact us.

All necessary information was well documented and with sufficient time for review.ki
Communications were fine except for one little hiccup in Cape Town which was resolved quickly and efficiently. The tour itself covered all the sights I wanted to see but would have liked to spend a little more time viewing the Naukluft Mountains, Spitzkoppe and the Organ Pipes which we did not see at all. The most disappointing sight was the Petrified Forest. One tree trunk and a few petrified logs does not constitute a forest to me. Accommodation and meals were excellent as was the very knowledgeable tour guide. All the comments about the actual tour were not the province of African Ubuntu Safaris but the outsourced Sense of Africa. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit Namibia.

They make everything possible, its was one of the best trips ever.
Excellent communication with client, nothing is done or changed whithin the original plan without asking the clinnts permission. Adam, Godson, and Malek made everything possible and easy on us during our 9 days in the bush. We all noticed how others will admire our fancy lunches in the bush. The drivers/guides work so hard to meet our expectations, and also provide us with great portion of information about the land, the animals and the history whenever is possible.
Mohammed alnaser, which was the person behind arranging our trip of seven, was there n advance and met with the owner, and camp managers to make things smoothers for everyone.
Our trip was from Kilomingaro airport-Arusha, then Karatu to Ngorngoro, then to Seronera in the middle of Serengeti and the to northen Serengeti and back
Thank you for your great hospitality and see you soon
