The trip of a life time, beyond our expectations!
The trip of a life time! My partner and I chose Safari Africa United for our 8 day mid range private safari and it was beyond our expectations. Safari Africa United is a locally owned company which I think really sets them apart from the big ones in delivering a more personalized experience. Cornelius (the owner of the company) delivered everything that our package outlined and more. He was also very responsive and flexible when we were a bit late getting into Arusha, as well as very prompt in emailing me back when I was booking the experience. Our guide was Laurian and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the animals, tribes and culture of Tanzania, and the diverse landscapes. Laurian was also a safe driver (super important on the dirt roads/ rough terrain of the Serengeti). We saw so many animals every day- way more than expected including the big five as well as The Great Migration and so many more. The accommodations were exactly as promised and all the staff were very hospitable and friendly as well. Laurian and Cornelius both delivered an amazing experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.

A well organized operator who consistently checks that everything runs smooth
We did a 5-day tour and I cannot thank Josh Dreamland Safari enough for organizing it. Our driver and guide, Frances, accompanied us during the safari and made sure we saw all the animals. He cared so much for us even when he dropped us off at the campsite. Before leaving, he greeted us with our personal chef, Richard, and would chat with us to prepare us for the night and the following day. Richard met us each night at the campsite and prepared delicious food for us! Richard was so kind to ask if we had any food prefernces. On the fifth day, we visited materuni waterfall and had an exceptional time making coffee with the Materuni people! It’s a once in a lifetime experience and they all want to make sure that you enjoy each and every minute of it. Once you book your tour, rest assure that the operator will be ready to ammend your safari if you wish to make any changes. I like how the operator kept good contact with us during the weeks prior to our safari. We were given a packing list for our safari. Look no further and book your tour with Josh Dreamland🙂

This tour operatorexceeded all expectations, providing exceptional service
I recently had the pleasure of touring with Collins, who served as both our guide and driver, and I cannot speak highly enough of the experience. From the very beginning, Collins stood out with his professionalism, warmth, and deep knowledge of the area.
As a driver, Collins was outstanding. We always felt safe and comfortable, even on the more challenging roads. His driving was smooth, and he was punctual, ensuring that we arrived on time to all of our destinations without ever feeling
I highly recommend Collins to anyone looking for a memorable and seamless tour experience. He truly made our trip unforgettable!

Perfect
The whole tour was perfect! The experience with mountain gorillas was incredibly great. The hotels where I was sleeping were nice and I also really enjoyed Andrew's company. I recommend this company.

The best experience of my life, outstanding!
The Agent was very helpful when booking, even though I left it until the day before our safari to book our needs were met in every way. We were picked up from our hotel in Zanzibar, flew to Arusha and was met by Boris and our Guide Richard to start our adventure. Richard was an amazing, very knowledgeable about all the animals we encounted. We stayed the night in an amazing camping lodge, then started another safari the following day, starting with a sunrise balloon ride, which was spellbinding. We see many many animals. Richard then dropped us to the airport, where we flew back to Zanzibar, was met by a taxi the other end and back to our hotel to finish our holiday.
The whole experience was perfect. I was celebrating my 50th Birthday, Akonda Safari arranged a beautiful celebration with cake for me also. I can not thank them enough for such an amazing trip of a life time.
Richard our guide educated us so much by sharing his knowledge of the African bush. I will never forget this experience and highly recommend them to others in the future

Amazing Safari that Exceeded my Expectations
Going on a Safari was the only thing on my bucket list. Found Ecovic Tours & Travel Uganda online and contacted them because of their excellent ratings and prompt answers.
Vincent did a great job in making suggestions and formulating our itinerary. He helped with the actual details of our trip in Uganda. Prompt answers to our many questions. Initiated communication a number of times.
Actually safari was unbelievable. From guides, to camps , to locations, to accommodations and food were all 5 star. Each of the 3 camps we stayed at were very different in terms of environments and terrain. Gave us a broad experience of Uganda and her animals , vegetation, water and terrain.
And Murchison Falls, at the beginning, took our breath away. But a great 9 days and would not hesitate to use Ecovic Tours & Travel Uganda again. Highly recommended

Excellent tour, spotted the big 5 plus much more.
What a great tour! From start to finish the tour was run professionally and was extremely informative. Our guide Simon was fantastic. He has been doing tour around South Africa for a very long time, including Kruger, and it was evident. We were very lucky to see the big 5 on our 3 day tour, plus a whole lot more.
The accommodation was nice, we even had Hippos playing in the river outside our accommodation during sunset which was awesome.
The open safari van is a must on any safari, as it really gives you a much better view of the animals. We were given blankets for our morning safaris as it was a bit chilly, and that was great.
All in all, I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Kruger.
