Rwanda and DRC in 11 Days
Frank did an amazing job trying to juggle our 5 days in Rwanda with 6 additional days in DRC that we asked him to organize for us. Our itinerary changed at the last minute as two Volcanoes NP mountain gorilla permits came up just before we left home (yay!) and Frank just moved everything around without any issues. He's a great driver and a very knowledgable guide and we loved criss crossing Rwanda with him.
He then connected us with his associate for our DRC - Goma to Bukavu segment and although we had a few issues with unexpected hotel rate increases and the visa process, we managed to do it all. DRC is not for the faint of heart! Finally Frank located and coordinated with D'jambo in Kinshasa to get us to the bonobos and they did a fantastic job as well.
Thanks for the awesome tour Frank and Golden Rwanda! One note - make sure you arrive at the front gate of Akagera NP before 6PM or you'll end up in protracted discussions with NP and lodge personnel before they let you in! :-)
Mahalo Nui Loa Frank - hoping you do make it out here to Hawaii!

Outstanding tour Agency!
I used Acheche Tours to book a trip to Mombasa and was extremely satisfied. Courteous and knowledgeable staff. Their service and response time is Excellent. They will book any aspect of your trip and are available should you have further questions or changes. Our driver Omar was friendly and very professional. He was always on time and has a wealth of knowledge about the area which adds to the trip. Our accommodation was fantastic. I can't say enough good things about Acheche tours. I look forward to working with them again in the future.

This was a trip of a life-time.
This was an adventure that exceeded my expectations. Umang was in constant contact with our guide to ensure we were enjoying the trip and had all our needs met. I have already recommended this tour to relatives and friends.

Hello travellers,
I have travelled 16 days in Uganda, with Bella as my tour guide. Bella now what you want and how to show it. If you want something just ask, she take care of it or... she has already done it. If you want a good organized trip with a African feeling Bella is your guide.

There and back again.
If you are looking for the most amazing African safari experience, Chris and the Safari Partners is your best friend. I've booked with Chris my Safari adventure in 2015 and 2016, traveling to East and South Africa. Both times Chris was super helpful, patient, accommodating, and just a pleasure to work with. Chris specializes in African adventures and nearby islands, and really knows his stuff.
On my 2016 trip to SA and Seychelles , Chris put us in Machaton Private Camp. We thought Safari will be rough, but we have Mahe Island to relax.....but we were in on real treat. Every single person at Machaton went above and beyond to ensure that guests are taken care of and treated like royalty. It is truly a bar set so high, that I am no longer sure how to top that without spending exorbitant amounts of money, and even then....
If you are looking for a worry free VIP African experience, Chris is the best bet. He will make it happen, and I am really puzzled on how he does that with the prices he charges. Best deal out there and the best treatment.

Really big thank you for the great preparation and support for our dream trip in August-Sept
We wish in this way to once again say thank you for the very professional advice, support and extensive travel documents, which our 30 days self-drive trip through Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe has only done right to experience. Above all, the telephone contacts with you Heike have let our trust in your company grow rapidly. Who wants to be supervised around safely and competently, is in good hands with Heike. Only through you we have learned the special campsites that really differ from others. Also your instructions, especially to the rules of conduct and great restaurants in Swakop were top. It was good to know that at all times that we could call you for further assistance. Also becoming personally acquainted with you and Hermann was a highlight and we could continue talking about Namibia for days in a row, very interesting. If the desire for Namibia returns (actually that's already the case even if we've been back for only one week) then you will be our first choice again.
Thanks again and keep it up.
Greetings from Björn Eismann & Daniela Elias

Fulfilling safari experience
4 American senior citizens had a great 8-day safari, meeting or exceeding almost all our expectations. The best was our guide Martin, for his knowledge and dependability. Accommodations, balloon ride, itinerary were really good. Our desire to see wildebeest en masse crossing the Mara river, complete with predators, was realized thanks to Martin's efforts. We're glad we chose intra-Africa flight to return to Arusha. Disappointments: expected 4 pr binoculars, received only 3 by the third day of safari (we'd have brought our own from home); arrived JRO airport with no one to pick us up, until about 11/2 hours later; an arranged night game drive didn't happen. The safari company quickly reimbursed us for late pick-up, missed game drive. We'd choose this company all over again, based on our mostly very good experiences.

Fourth time a Makasa safari and again a hit
For the fourth time we made a safari with Makasa. This time was the main goal the crossing of the wildebeests in the North Serengeti.
As usual is the communication with Selma and Ngomi pleasant and clear. They understand the client's needs very well. And every time we are supprised about the different choices of the tented camps.
Doing Safari with driver/guide David is every time a gift. His knowledge of the flora and fauna is excellent and he has real hawkey eyes. Highlights of this safari were the several crossing of the Mara River and of course the luck we had to see the pangolin at the last day of our stay in the Serengeti

BAJ are very good. They did a great job in putting everything together.
Annette did a great job of putting the itinerary together for us. Sam was a great and very obliging guide and we all enjoyed the whole trip very much. The only negative was some of the Lodges/Hotels were not as good as they appear on their Web site. The food in some of the Lodges/Hotels was definitely not up to the mark. Location, Room - Tents & Food/Beverages at Lake Naivasha Country Club & Samburu Intrepids Camp as per the itinerary were excellent.
