7 days classic safari with africancircuitsafaris
We had a fantastic trip in kenya. The lodges of the 7 days classic safaris are very great. Paul (the manager) was helpfull. We no had problems. Japhit, our private driver, was excellent, he found all the animals. We were a little bit scared to book a safari with an unknow operator. But this a secondary compagny of raylene who had very great reviews. So everything was respected, lodges, program, meals. The only very little disapointement is that the water was never included in the lodges (as writted in program) but is wasn't a big problem. Thanks Paul and Japhit, we hope to come back again...

Great Great Great! Book with One on One with Africa safaris
This is an amazing company. We had an amazing time in both the Tsavo East and Tsavo west National parks. Also our time in Diani was perfect. I highly recommend One on One with Africa private safaris.

Great time in Amboseli National Park
I went with my mother on a 2 days private safari to Amboseli. Our initial request was for a 1 day trip but our friends convinced us to add an extra day since One on One is an amazing Tour company. Our driver James picked us up at 8 AM, we had a briefing at the office and started our safari. We arrived in Amboseli, checked in at Kibo camp and had our lunch. Then we started our afternoon game drive which was awesome. James parked the open sided jeep right in front of the animals. I had perfect shots of lions, cheetah, leopards, giraffe, herds of elephants, awesome view of Mt. Kilimanjaro and much more. It was really an amazing experience. The driver used to co-ordinate the safari with a radio call which was very helpful as it was easy to locate the animals. Truly amazing experience. One on One with Africa is the best company for a private safari holiday.

Outstanding safari experience
Hamadi Hassani is a local tour operator. He's one of the nicest people we've ever met. From the first till the very last minute of our encounter, Hamadi was always completely honest. For him the sky is the limit if it comes to helping people. We went to four other tour operators (With Hamadi accompanying us!!) for a quotation and the price came not even close to what we paid. We did a 5 day budget safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro) and had an unbelievable experience for a very good price. Our expectations could never been so high... everything was as promised and better.
Words cannot describe how grateful we are. We can only recommend Hamadi to everyone looking for a real African experience and support local business.
FYI Because of low season, Hamadi arranged for us to stay in a b&b for free cause he knew we were on a budget (were looking for couch surfing). Just one of the many things Hamadi did for us.
Just get tour safari with Hamadi, you won't regret it. Guaranteed!!

Gorilla Tracking, Exciting Experience!
Going on a gorilla tour in Rwanda is a must do while on your safari in Africa. Our trip was perfectly organised by African Jungle Adventures. They quickly responded to my emails, and fully answered all my questions. Our main interest was to see the mountain gorillas in the forest and this was the highlight of the safari. However, you must be physically fit to successfully trek to the gorillas, and advised to hire a porter. Volcanoes National Park management awarded us certificated after the trek.

Experience of a lifetime -- gorilla trekking in Uganda!
E-Trip Africa put together a perfect gorilla trekking experience for six women of "advanced age". Although I'm an experienced hiker, I had been nervous about trekking through jungle foliage and steep terrain. The advice we received from E-Trip Africa was detailed and thorough, so that I travelled fully prepared. The guides and porters made sure the trek was safe and comfortable, even though it was strenuous. The lodge was top class, with excellent food and our every need was accommodated. E-Trip was able to arrange a discounted price for our group, making it more affordable. Our flights to/from and the transfers to the lodge were easy and smooth. E-Trip arranged for us to leave our excess luggage at a lovely hotel near the airport during our gorilla trip, and then we were able to use the rooms at the hotel to relax and refresh before our late night departures for the return to the U.S. Visiting the gorillas was a most incredible experience. We were able to observe them from a close distance for an hour; at one point, a female wanted to move from one side of our group to the other. We were instructed to remain still; she just pushed her way through us, as though we were harmless paparazzi -- which, in fact, we were. We visited the gorillas two days in a row, seeing two different families in two different areas. Each experience was different and remarkable. It's an experience not to be missed! I have been on other safaris, confined to a vehicle, observing elephants, lions, giraffes, etc. But a visit to the gorillas is active, rather than passive -- challenging, interactive, and thereby so much more rewarding!

Simply Amazing
It could not have been a more amazing experience. We booked the safari through Wild Wings Safari at the very last minute. 3 weeks before we were suppose to head to South Africa and our correspondent, Madi was fantastic. She was helpful throughout the entire process and ensured that everything would be ready for us when we arrived. True to her word, our Ashton shuttle picked us up at the hotel and delivered us to the Reserve and from there it was GreenFire Lodge. Isaac our pick up driver was also our game driver during our 3 night stay. He was knowledgable and friendly. Thanks Isaac!
Our lodge far exceeded our expectations. The reservations done was simply amazing and the first night we were there, we saw elephants out side our balcony. Unbelievable.
Everyone at the lodge was friendly and nice and the food there was amazing. I loved the traditional outdoor BBQ meal and the Chicken Pot Pie we had for lunch was unforgettable. I'm still thinking about it a month later.
I can't recommend this place enough.
