Big Apes Africa Made our Dream Come True!
Wow, what an unforgettable experience with Big Apes Safari! This trip was everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we set foot in Uganda, it was pure magic. We saw an incredible array of animals, including chimpanzees, elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, and a mesmerizing variety of birds. Watching the sunset and sunrise over the savannah was breathtaking, and it felt like we were in a movie.
Our guide, Gerald, was exceptional! He was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure my mom and I had the best time possible. His passion for the wildlife, the country's culture and his caring nature made our trip truly special.
A huge shoutout to Peter, the agency owner, who meticulously organized every detail of our adventure. Seeing the gorillas in the wild was a lifelong dream for both me and my mom, and Peter made it all happen seamlessly.
This trip was everything we hoped for and more, packed with adventure and wonder. We absolutely loved Uganda and can't thank Peter, Gerald, and the whole Big Apes Safari team enough for making our dreams come true. We highly recommend it!

Incredible Experience, Smooth Communication, Great Drive/Guide
So our 4-day, 5-night safari with Karibu Safaris was totally awesome! Robert was super helpful, answering all our questions and making sure we were 100% satisfied before we paid anything. We communicated easily on WhatsApp and email.
When we arrived, they picked us up from the airport and took us straight to Masai Mara Camp. Our tour guide, Raymond, was super knowledgeable and friendly, which made our adventure in the Masai Mara even better. He made sure we had the best experience, and since we had a private 4x4 car, we started every day at sunrise.
My wife and I saw some incredible wildlife. It was so exciting to finally spot all after searching for them.

The ultimate experience with Zepisa African Safaris
Zepisa African safari
Big 10! Highly recommended!
Nyemo provided us with all the information we needed from the start (October 2023) until the safari (July 2024). We opted for the northern parks and went to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. We enjoyed everything; the car, the overnight stays, the parks and of course our private guide/driver Gilbert. We spotted the Big 5 and many more beautiful animals such as the cheetah, hyenas, many giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, impalas and an abundance of bird species. Gilbert was very patient and gave us a lot of information. Gilbert was able to name the different bird and animal species and support them with the books he had.
Tanzania has so much to offer and it is great to have Nyemo as your contact person and Gilbert as your guide/driver! Good luck gentlemen with your company!

Amazing Safari
We booked a 12 day safari trip. We stayed for 2 nights at the Reef and Beach Hotel in Zanzibar, then flew to Tanzania for 3 nights, then went back to Zanzibar for 7 nights. There were some early mornings and we weren’t given many specific details about what to expect, which would have been helpful. But everything worked well when it happened. We went on 2 full day game drives, which were amazing. There were only 4-6 people in each jeep. We saw giraffes, elephants, wildebeest, zebras, monkeys, lions, hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, impala and one very shy leopard. All up close - absolutely amazing! Our guide Oscar was excellent but be prepared for long, hot days of very bumpy rides. We stayed in a bush bungalow at Africa Safari Selous. They were lovely but they are in the middle of the bush so be prepared for mosquitos and other wildlife and limited WiFi. The selection of food was slightly limited but delicious. Masai tribesmen are always around the camp and walk you back to your room at night. They also dance around the fire pit at night, which was great to watch. Our hotel in Tanzania was lovely too. It was set around a mangrove forest where Red Colobus monkeys live and they wander around the grounds - very cute. There was a really good selection of delicious food, including Swahili options at the buffet restaurant. Or you could go the the a la carte restaurant for an extra cost. We paid £56 for a 3 course meal for 2 including lobster. The jetty bar is beautiful, with lovely views of the Indian Ocean and you can swim from there when the tide is in. There isn’t really a beach to sit on. But you can explore the rock pools when the tide is out. All airport transfers were private in good quality cars, but the roads are awful with lots of pot holes so it does take a while to drive anywhere. Everyone was very friendly and smiley. Staff at the hotels were very helpful. It would have been useful to know that you would need a separate bag for the safari and the weight limit is 15kg. Also that you need to check out of your hotel in Zanzibar when you go on safari so when you arrive back early in the morning you need to check in again and will have to wait several hours for a room. Overall we were very impressed with the quality of the holiday and value for money. It exceeded all our expectations.

Great uganda experience with Innocent
Our driver Innocent was not only always on time, he was available at every time. He has extensive knowledge about various subjects such as local animals, plants, general facts and the different regions. He is also just a very nice person to be around. This defenitely added value to our experience in Uganda.

Experience of a lifetime
This was by far the most amazing trip for me. We set off with numerous unrelated challenges here and there but ThinkScene Safaris did their best to give us the adventure we were dreaming about. The manager Brenda was incredibly understanding and she did everything to ensure we got nice hotels, food, and experience even though most facilities were fully booked. The driver was exceptional, we saw all the rare animals and birds in proximity. The entire experience is worth and I recommend this operator to anyone looking to visit East Africa.

Amazing Safari Experience with Gametrackers
I had the pleasure of a trip to Sarova Lion Hill with Gametrackers recently and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish.
The journey to Sarova Lion Hill was very smooth. Our drivers were highly skilled and also friendly, making us feel comfortable throughout our journey. Their vast knowledge about this area and wildlife made this trip much more worth while.
Definitely, the highlight of this trip were game drives and catching the sunsets and sunrises. We saw a lot of wildlife at close quarters and the drivers made sure we got enough time to take photographs as well as appreciate nature around us. They amazed me by their ability to spot animals easily and provide some useful facts concerning them.
If you are going for an adventure safari in Kenya, then you should consider using Gametrackers. Thank you Gametrackers for making my safari so outstanding!
