Thank you Tamuka Travel, and especially Brighton, for our fun African adventure!
Our adventure with Tamuka Travel started at Windhoek in Namibia, and took us through Botswana to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Our guide Brighton was great fun to travel with. His sense of humour is very infectious and he had me in fits of laughter a lot of the time. We found Tamuka Travel on the internet and chose them because they offered good value for money. We were very pleased with our choice. Brighton looked after us very well. I know he was doing a lot of work behind the scenes every day to customise our journey and give us an exciting African experience. I highly recommend Brighton and Tamuka Travel.

fantastically efficient and friendly service
Considering I was booking directly with a Ugandan company from England there was a certain element of faith that everything would go swimmingly. What would happen if there was no one to meet us at the airport? How would we get our money back? The efficient and prompt manner in which Nsavi personnel responded to my emails was a true indication of their professionalism and everything went according to plan. The drivers/guides were fantastic and the whole trip surpassed our expectations. I hope more travellers choose to book directly with companies in the country to which they are travelling and spend their money with the actual experts of their own country, rather than throw thousands at UK companies like Audley who just use these companies anyway and throw thousands more on to their own bill.

A day around Kampala
We had a wonderful experience on 24 July 2024. With some colleagues we booked a customized tour of Kampala. Our driver/guide was competent, friendly and patient. He really listened to our requests and went out of his way to assist.

Amazing and perfectly arranged experience
We absolutely loved this safari, our tour guide Colin was a very skilled driver so despite the heavy rains that had damaged some of the roads we were able to see everything and travel safely. We saw loads of animals and our accomodations were all very comfortable and clean with great staff.

Amazing experience!
We will highly recommend Afrishare! Ibrahim and his guys are highly professional in everything they do. We attended a five days safari, and the trip was planned together in andvance. We brought 3 kids (7, 12 and 14) and they made sure that also the kids had a great experience all the way. Our guides were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, good with the kids and great drivers as well. We felt so safe and taken care of all the way. Everything worked out perfectly from payment, planning and to the actual trip. First class service! Thanks for a great trip with you!!
Really efficient, excellent at communicating
We had the best trip booked through OfftoAfrica. The company organised everything for us, making it seamless and hassle free. The accommodation was excellent as were the organised trips. It took all the stress away and we made the most amazing memories. Would definitely use them again, thoroughly recommended.

Highly recommended
My family and I had an absolutely fantastic safari tour with Alphadean Tours and Safaris, expertly arranged by our wonderful tour consultant, Jemimah. From the very beginning, Jemimah was incredibly helpful, patiently addressing all our questions about the practical aspects of our upcoming safari.
Her support didn't stop there—during our roundtrip, Jemimah was always there for us, promptly resolving any inquiries and happily rearranging our itinerary based on our wishes.
We had a bit of a hiccup with our luggage being delayed from the flight, but Jemimah took care of everything. While we were enjoying the stunning wildlife, she ensured our luggage was picked up from the airport and delivered directly to us on the tour.
Thanks to Jemimah and Alphadean Tours and Safaris, our safari was smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable. Highly recommended!

The Best Operator Ever
Meru Waterfall and Arusha National Park - what two great day trips
During our stay in Arusha, we decided to visit the less-visited hotspots in Tanzania, such as the Meru Waterfall and Arusha National Park, each on a day trip. And we were overwhelmed by the beautiful nature along the river to the waterfall not far from the city. I recommend this day trip to anyone who is in Arusha and wants to enjoy the nature nearby - a little paradise not far from Arusha.
Arusha National Park is equally stunning. Getting so close to the animals on a hike at the foot of Mount Meru is indescribable and unforgettable. The pictures speak for themselves. The picnic at Lake Momella in the national park was the crowning glory of the day. What a wonderful place. Again, I can only recommend everyone to visit this beautiful spot.
The excursions were super well prepared with snacks and drinks and our guide was so friendly and funny, explained everything to us and answered all our questions - he was also a great photographer 🥰 Thanks for that and to the team from Mountain Warriors Tours and Safaris who made this experience possible for us.

Trip planned to fit our schedule, excellent service from driver and all services!
My friend and I did a 4 day tour which will be one of the most memorable experiences of my life due to the chimp and gorilla trekking!
Dav safaris were extremely accommodating, arranging a 4 day tour that fit so much in and picking us up from our chosen location in Mukono - not a normal pick up point! To fit our trip in we had to do long journeys in the car, on bumpy roads but this was made into part of the experience with our driver pointing out loads on the way, and being determined for us to see everything we wanted!
All of the places Dav safaris booked for our stay were excellent, with all of the staff and guides so welcoming and wanting to make the best experience for us. Our only recommendation would be to have longer than 4 days if you can! Our last night was in Bunyoni lake, chosen by Dav safaris, and it was the perfect end to a really fantastic trip!!

Unforgettable experience of Safari and Kilimanjaro climbing
We had a pleasure to experience 7 days Kilimanjaro hike via Lemosho route and 4 day Safari in Tarangire, Serengheti and Ngorongoro parks with Kilimanjaro Heroes Adventures and it was perfect.
4 day Safari in Tarangire, Serengheti and Ngorongoro parks
Driver and guide: Jamal was our driver and guide for these 4 days of safari. Jamal is an amazing person. He was very concerned about our safety, well-beeing and was doing everything possible to maximize our experiense. We had plenty of time to watch all animals, he was stopping every time when we asked him, he was looking for animals and was able to name each of them. He also told us a lot of ineteresting facts abouts animals we met and tried to answer all our questions. I had a feeling that we were a group staying the longest time with animals and making more stops than others. He never told us that we are in the rush and let us enjoy every moment. Jamal seems to be really passionate about his job and we could feel it.
Food: we had our own chef Walter travelling with us. The food was great. Everything was very tasty, always warm and fresh plus refreshing drinks from fridge on board. Big thanks to Walter.
Experience: we visited three parks: Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengheti. We were very lucky in each of them - meeting a family of around 30 adult and young elephants in Tarangire, lions resting just 5 meters from our car in Serengheti, hundreds or even thousands of zebras and wild beasts and a family of lions (2 males, 3 females, 7 babies of different age) in Ngorongoro, zebra blocking our road on the way to the city was our top, but we've seen much more than that. That was unforgettable, big thank you to Jamal, Walter and Kilimanjaro Heroes for organising such a great adventure for us.
7 days Kilimanjaro hike via Lemosho route
For two of us we had 2 guides, 1 cook and 8 porters to carry our staff. From start to finish, this adventure was nothing short of unforgettable, and a major part of that was due to the professionalism and dedication of our amazing guides, Domi and Boni.
Guides: Domi and Boni were not only knowledgeable and experienced in all things Kilimanjaro, but they also exuded positivity and encouragement throughout the trek. Their passion for the mountain and commitment to ensuring each of us reached the summit was evident in every interaction.
Food: The food provided by our cook was great. Every meal was delicious and hot, which was a welcome comfort after long days of hiking.
Porters: I'd also like to highlight the incredible efforts of the porters. They worked tirelessly to carry all our baggage, set up our tents, and maintain a comfortable campsite for us. Their hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed, they were always smiling and ready to assist in any way possible, making our trek not only enjoyable but also stress-free.
Experience: Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Kilimanjaro Heroes Adventures to anyone looking to conquer Kilimanjaro. With exceptional guides like Domi and Boni, delicious food, and a dedicated team of porters, this company ensures that every climber feels valued and supported. Thank you for an amazing journey!
