Very good organised and a wonderfull experience, especially Kylie hellped me with everything.
I booked the tour online.
From the first beginning until the last little thing, Kylie has worked the tour out for me.
We had contact by mail.
She even booked the hotel and the taxi, she advised in that also very good.
From the minute we arrived in Z.A. there was someone to pick us up, until we went home again,
all the arrangements were very good done.
The hotels, the pick ups, the tour, the guid, the open 4-wheel-drive we had for the four of us.
The Safari tour was very good. We had a very good tourguide named Bretton.
He really loved the animals and told us a lot of things.
We went for a three days tour.
We were there with three adults and a child from 8.
We all enyoud it very much.
I really can recommend Kruger Park Travel to everyboody.

Did what it said on the tin.
A very enjoyable 4 days safari with Chris our guide and “Mr Fixit” his assistant. Chris was so knowledgable and informative about all the wildlife we encountered including the incredible variety of bird life in Kruger.

Easy, stress free and perfectly organised to our needs.
Kevin and his whole team of Experience Uganda were excellent. We basically found Experience Uganda on the internet and from first correspondence decided to book with them because of their immediate response to our enquiry and also the fact the trip was tailor made for us. There was no hard selling, just good old excellent customer service and he liaised with us over everything. Nothing was too much trouble.
He helped us so much get prepared for the trip , from helping us apply for visas to sending us notes of what to pack etc. Brilliant advice.
From arrival in Entebbe, he had us collected from the airport so we could freshen up and have a short brief before dropping us back at the airport a few hours later for our flight to Kihihi. We were picked up by a pre arranged guide who was basically allocated to us for our whole stay, making sure we arrived safely and at the right place as required for the Gorilla Trekking. He wasn't over bearing, he was just always there when you needed him. Thank you Sulla.
The Buhoma lodge was perfect for us. The actual 2 day Gorilla Trekking was 2 of the best days of my life and well worth it.
Experience Uganda were again there to meet us on our arrival back in Entebbe and kindly looked after us at their beautiful Guesthouse Karibu until our evening flight. Kevin and Leslie and their staff were brilliant and very welcoming.
I cannot recommend Experience Uganda enough. I would definitely use again.
A perfect trip and a huge thank you for an amazing experience.

Amazing!
We booked 4days safari tour via Kiliholidays Tour.
The manager of travel agency was trying to satisfy all we wanted and we were satisfied, too. He came to us, when we had just arrived at our hotel after finishing safari tour, to hear review from us. These kinds of efforts can be upgraded quaility of tours from Kiliholiday Tour.
We were also happy with our guide(driver) and cook because they were enthusiastic about their duty. Guide had a lot of knowledge about animals, plants, etc. and foods made by cook were really delicious.
I already miss my days in Tanzania. Hope to visit again :)

Go during the dry season!
My first recommendation would be to go during the mid dry season. Too early and the vegetation is too thick and the grass is too high for optimal game viewing. Also with lots of water around, the game doesn’t concentrate at watering holes. This made for interesting tracking but less prolific game. Botswana is great. The accommodations were very nice, the guides were fantastic (pick a good company to travel with). The scenery was pure Africa. We had some cold weather because we went too early. Don’t forget to try to visit with some of the indigenous people like the Bushmen. Overall excellent experience.

This was our second trip with this company and it meant that Patrick already had a feel for what we
This was our first road trip, just we two and the guide. This meant we were in one another's company most of the time really. Early morning starts, chatting at the accommodation, eating meals together, travelling 1,700 miles together. Fortunately we related to one other very well and with good will on both sides, we had an amazing trip. We enjoyed every minute of it. It was my second trip to Namibia, the first with Exodus. With the quality of guiding, the Toyota Fortuner, the standard of the lodges, the food, the climate, I felt I was seeing Namibia through different eyes. Judging a holiday by how long it stays with you when you return, we came back knowing we were to face quite a difficult time. Our holiday is helping us through that, which was the purpose of the trip in the first place.
Nico is an excellent guide, chatting away, spotting wild life and driving, multitasking with ease. He was as excited as we were when we saw something special, very committed to his country, passionate about Namibia, it's infra structure, very knowledgeable. The trip would have been totally different without him, so much depended on us getting on.
Downside, missed the early morning drives in a safari truck with coffee stop in the desert. The holiday couldn't offer us that, we know. The room at Olive Grove was a disappointing start, as was the meal in town that was recommended at the desk. A simply wonderful holiday, thankyou Patrick and Nico.

Mamaland provided us with a truly unforgettableexperience
Mamaland's website looked vary interesting and did it's job to bring me in as a customer. Though not the least expensive offering, it was well worth it. The accommodations were excellent: Clean, comfortable, and generally well maintained.
The Safari itself was really made by our guide. He consistently demonstrated his highly customer focused view of his job. Always ready to answer a question or point our something interesting, he was truly wonderful.
I would not hesitate to recommend Mamaland to others and will certainly consider a return trip.

it was just perfect efficient professional and kind
Everything was perfect ,we were upgraded to Rattley's .
The food was really good,the staff was great ,the accomodation wonderful
The safari was unforgottable
We jusy had a big problem with Fereral Airlines because we were late for the plane,they knew perfectly our arrival time and they pretented to wait for us...and they did not.
We were obliged to take a small plane for30000 dollars and ,they refuse to give us any amount of money back.
Andy Saidi did much more than his best but they refuse.With Andy we found someone very professinal ,caring about the customers just like if we belonged to his family.So I asked Andy to organise the trip of our son who is now flying to SA.
I must say that the organisation,the accomodations the itinery,alorsthe things he did for us was just PERFECT!!
he was so nice and helpful that even with our bad experience(and expensive!!) with Federal Airlines ,the memory of this trip is great !!Thanks to him!!

Amazing experience
Communications we're good. Arrangements were up to expectations. safaris were well coordinated. The accommodation in Arusha was not acceptable. Accommodation in Moshi was good but in an isolated location. Food choices in the restaurant were very limited
