An amazing experience
What an amazing experience, we had the time of our lives
We we're picked up in Victoria Falls by Andy, our lovely and knowledgeable driver/guide who taught us so much about this part of Africa and it's culture.
We drove to Kasane and Chobe where we had two morning drives, an afternoon drive and a river cruise. There were elephants, giraffs, impalas, kudus, hippos and buffalos galore. There were a number of colourful birds and we got to see lions with cubs, lions playing with prey (a baboon) and even a leopard.
The next stop was Elephant Sands were you can sit by the fire and watch the elphants up close. This was an amazi g experience although the smell could be quite interresting. And by the way, in winter, bring warm clothes. At night the temperature went down to about 5 degrees celsius and there is no heating in the tents.
The last part of the trip was in Maun and the Okavango delta. On the way there, there were a lot of animals along the road, impalas and elephants and a large herd of zebras. When we got to Maun we had a land back afternoon and evening before going on a mokoro (canoo) trip in the delta combined with a walking safari. This was such a peaceful and different way of seeing the animals. The walking safari was maybe the only letdown on the whole trip. We did not see many animals except some zebras and wilderbeest from a distanse, but the mokoro trip made up for it.
The accomodation on the trip was also very nice and the staff at the lodges were great.
Thanks to Andy for making this trip such a wonderful experience and to Pamela for organizing everything. Thank you so much.

Perfection!
We had an amazing experience with Bamboo Ecotours. From the moment I contacted Edison to the moment that our driver Jackson dropped us at the airport on the last day everything was perfection. Edison is easily the best tour operator I have ever used, very friendly, helpful and extremely responsive. Jackson continued with this great service, he was friendly, kind and very knowledgeable. He was also a very safe driver and the vehicle was very comfortable. Uganda is a beautiful country full of wonderful people and a stunning countryside. Everything on our tour was organised perfectly. All our activities exceeded our expectations, we will never forget our game drives, the boat cruise on the Kazinga channel, our Chimp and Golden Monkey treks and of course the Gorilla experience which is hard to put into words. All the lodges we selected with the guidance of Edison were wonderful (Elephant Hub, Rushaga Gorilla Camp and Mutunda Lake Resort). Would highly recommend Bamboo Ecotours! Reach out to Edison and you won’t be disappointed.

Efficient, friendly, welcoming with attention to detailto detail
From start to finish of a 5-day tour of the Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park, Marvel and Busani were brilliant. Accommodation, travel arrangements and liaison with partners (e.g. Hwange guide and lodge) were all excellent. Accommodation was great in both locations. And Marvel and Busani went the extra mile and mothing was too.much trouble. All at prettyvresdonable cost. We'd highly recommend the company.

Review of Our Incredible Honeymoon Safari Experience with Karibu Travel
We just returned from an unforgettable two-week honeymoon in Zanzibar, and I can confidently say that our experience was absolutely extraordinary, thanks to our travel agent, Shivangi, from Karibu Travel and Service.
From the very beginning, Shivangi went above and beyond to ensure our trip was seamless. She was a joy to work with and incredibly responsive, staying in contact throughout our vacation. This was immensely reassuring, especially since we were in a foreign country where we didn’t know anyone. Shivangi guided us towards trustworthy locals, making us feel safe and well taken care of.
While my research was minimal, Shivangi took care of every detail and planned a wonderful week and a half-long itinerary on Zanzibar Island. She made sure to book us into different hotels, allowing us to experience the best that the island had to offer. One of the highlights was our stay at Zuri Zanzibar, where we enjoyed the luxury of private bungalows. The setting was perfect and truly felt like paradise.
Shivangi even arranged for us to have upgrades at several hotels, calling ahead to ensure everything was perfect for our stay. One of my favorite memories was the private beach dinners she organized as a surprise for my wife, which added a beautiful romantic touch to our honeymoon.
We also had the opportunity to enjoy a safari experience, which was simply amazing. We had a private 4X4 vehicle, complete with a friendly and knowledgeable driver who made our safari truly unforgettable.
In short, our honeymoon was a dream come true. Shivangi’s expertise and dedication made all the difference, and I can't recommend her and Karibu Travel enough. If you’re looking for a personalized travel experience filled with incredible moments, look no further!

Best time we ever had!
It was the best experience we ever had! The guide was very nice and patient, always on time! The car was very clean every day, they serve good food and the drinks were always very cold! We had wi-fi and book guides to read about the animals in the car! We saw the big five and we could see the great wildebeest migration! Lomo was always very helpful to sort anything we needed through WhatsApp, Erasto, Annette and Hellen were great! Don’t have anything to complain! Just have good memories and we already want to come back! Our guide was David, and we miss him a lot!

5/5 Stars - Exceptional Service and Unforgettable Experience!
We recently went to Masai Mara Safari along with my family (5 members). We stayed for 5 nights/6 days. The tour was arranged by Twinkle Tours and Safaris, and I must say, it was truly an experience of a lifetime! From the initial planning stages to the execution, James at Twinkle Star took care of everything. He was very professional, prompt in his responses to any questions, courteous, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of.
The safari itself was breathtakingly beautiful, with stunning landscapes, incredible wildlife, and unforgettable moments that will stay with us forever. Our guide and driver Daniel was knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled, making sure we got the most out of our time in Masai Mara.
We had a wonderful stay at the La Maison Royale Mara Camp. The rooms and washrooms were clean, and their service was awesome. The hotel staff was always ready to go over and beyond and made sure that our requests were taken care of. The view from our Balcony was breathtaking. We could see the wildlife from there.
I will highly recommend Twinkle tours to anyone looking to plan Masai Mara safari adventure. Their expertise, attention to detail, and passion for creating unforgettable experiences make them truly exceptional.
