Fantastic African Safari and Beach Holiday
To begin with Uhuru Travel communicated promptly and helped us plan our safari and beach holiday in Tanzania. Uhuru Travel was always on time to help us make our connecting flights and provided transport within Tanzania that wasn't part of our safari. We absolutely loved our Safari! We saw so many animals, more than I expected , and close up. Our safari driver, Zablon, was excellent at spotting animals and informative. He also has a nice personality, calm disposition and good sense of humor. We did have a few issues along the way, such as the Land Cruiser didn't want to start for the first couple days. Zablon, usually left it running or if we part on a hill he could pop the clutch and it would start. Our 2-way radio was only a one way. I had to use my credit card to get into a couple of the parks because the pin number didn't work on Uhuru's card. I was reimbursed but wasn't sure I would be at the time. Also the itinerary I was sent didn't match the timeline of our trip. As a result our lodging in the Serengeti wasn't planning for our overnight stay, but once again our driver came through and we were allowed to stay. Even with all of this we still feel we had an awesome experience, these were minor issues and everything turned out for the best. Our beach time on Zanzibar was excellent! Uhuru Travel is an honest company and I would travel with them again.

Excellent Tour through Kibale, Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi
Richard and his team delivered what they promised. Excellent communication, no problem with permits and dates and hotel suggestions were good. We've done other safaris in Africa and this one was definitely well organized, informative and great fun. Uganda is definitely worth visiting and Richard's team are a great choice for guides, coordination etc.

Perfect 6-day camping and lodge safari
Thanks to Shemeji we had a fantastic safari. We did the 6-day camping & lodge safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Before departure, Shemeji was quick with responding our questions. During the safari our guide Adam told us a lot about the parks and animals. Thanks to him we saw the big five. Isaac cooked delicious meals in the evening and packed us lunch everyday. De accommodations during the safari were very divers and perfect.

A Pleasant Surprise
I use the word "surprise" in the heading because our group of nine were originally scheduled to stay in a permanent tent camp, but due to unforeseen circumstances we were switched to a mobile tent camp at the last minute. As details emerged as to what that entailed, our group was not sure if the last three days of our time in Botswana would result in a positive experience. As soon as we entered the camp site for the first time any fears we had were dispelled by the lovely setting of the camp and the gracious greeting we received from Rob, the owner of Golden Africa, and his staff. Over the next three days we grew to love the experience of being closer to nature--hearing the hippos at night, laughing at the monkeys in the trees, and waking up to the sweet tweeting of the large variety of birds.
We were absolutely amazed at the delicious food that was prepared from a simple kitchen and open fire pit. We lacked for only a few comforts of home and actually enjoyed being disconnected from the world via social media, etc. Experiencing the animals of Botswana was all the entertainment we needed.
Rob and his staff, whom have been with him for many years, have perfected the mobile camping experience. An experience we will cherish forever.

Top Cream helped to organise a wonderful trip to see Gorillas in Uganda
Top Cream were very professional and hardworking. They helped us to organise a lovely trip to Uganda to see the Gorillas. We stayed at Maranda lodge which had the added benefit of being next to the lake and having lake activities. Other lodges are nearer to the gorillas but would have potentially more limited other activities. We also did a community walk which was a good way to see the local community.
Top Cream were able to secure gorilla permits and hotel even though we booked very late and in peak season. As compared to other travel agencies, they were better value for money as we had flights included whereas other tour companies were offering less for the same money (ie with a 7-8 hour road trip rather than flights). The flight is an experience in itself and worth trying because you are flying low and see amazing scenery. When I accidentally paid twice - Top Cream promptly arranged to refund the money. All the partners who did pick ups were really pleasant to deal with and showed up on time.
I would definitely use them again for a trip in Africa - and not just for Kenyan tours.
We have fantastic time Safari,Zanzibar,and Dar es Salaam ever we’re excellent service thanks Ubon
Very soon next booking with Ubon Safari thanks very professional service team thanks Regards Balraj

Terrific experience and wonderful vacation!
Right from the start, Martha's (and Big Time's) special attention was evident. She answered all my questions quickly and efficiently as well as catering to our requests for itinerary changes. With her input and experience, the package she crafted for us met all our needs and gave us a truly memorable and unique vacation.
James, our driver guide, was the perfect fit for us as well. He handled all our little requests and worked so hard to make our experience so marvelous. His experience with the animals and Kenya's history, geography and peoples made it a pleasure to spend our 10 days with him.
We also feel we received good value for the level of accommodation, meals and service we were given. We would have loved to have stayed longer at Sweetwaters and Lake Navaisha. BTW we are in our 60's.
We also consider to have made friends with whom we will stay in contact.

Easily the best tour guide in Africa !
My wife and I have toured six times in different parts of Africa but no experience comes close to our 17 days with Frank Tours . Frank is incredibly well-informed and well-connected. We loved his warm relationships with people in every corner of the country and he displayed the same warmth to us from the moment we met . What a wonderful sense of humour. He anticipates every thing , so that all is smooth. He is a legend in Uganda and it was an honour to have had him as our guide for 17 days and a friend forever.
