Living among the Karamojong and visit Kidepo and Murchinson Falls
In October 2016 we made a trip from Kampala to the northeast of Uganda (Kidepo) and from there to the mid-west (Fort Portal). We had a fantastic driver (George) who was not only an excellent driver, but also an excellent guide during the game drives in Kidepo and Murchison Falls.
The guesthouses were basic and often authentic, but in Moroto we have refused the offered place because it was not safe and far below par. In the northeast you should not expect luxury, but it is desirable that the hostess of Buffalo Base (near Kidepo) learns some basic hygiene rules.
The trip was well mapped out, we had excellent guides and rangers. We always felt safe, even though we sometimes came to exciting places.
Advice to Grazz Rootz is to check the accommodations in advance to see whether it meets the basic expectations of travelers from Europe.

Beyond expectation
Safari Multiways is responsive, accommodating and understanding. I have to change flights and dates so many times, Romeo is always there listening, revising and re-scheduling even down to the last hour before departure. The safari tour itself is amazing. Our tour guide Lawrence knows his way around animals and parks. Our cook Vincent ever caters to our taste. The two of them ensured our well-been while showing us the beauty of Africa with all it offers: animals, Masai people, savanna and the crater etc. My sister and I get to live six unforgettable days in our lives, all thanks to Safari Multiways and Lawrence and Vincent.

Could not be better
I went alone with my teenage son and had the most wonderful experience. From the beginning of the booking process all the way to the last detail, Shadows of Africa managed all in a very serious and professional manner. It was my first but definitely not last safari thanks to the outstanding job of the company.
The safari could not be better, we saw more than we ever expected and answered felt safe and taking care of. Thanks to all the team both in the USA and in Tanzania

Was supposed to be luxury but was not
We wanted our safari to be luxurious and pay for the level that was just below highest luxury. Considering we paid $30K USD we felt we did not get good value for our money and they did not do a good job booking us in "luxury" accommodations. The first camp in Okavango Delta was nice and the food was excellent but it was still not luxury. The second locTion in Chobe was an absolute disgrace. It was a hotel that served a buffet for all three meals. This is NOT luxury at all. The activities at Chobe were not good either. The third camp we went to in Victoria Falls was Elephant Camp and again it did not meet our expectations. As well Zambezi did not book many activities for us so we had one full day of no activities. OverLl we were not very impressed and did not feel we got good value for our money. Especially when we found out what the cost per night was of the camps we were staying at when you could have booked them yourselves! I wouldn't use them agIn.

Very efficient and everything was as mentioned at time of booking
I am from Montreal, Canada and I communicated directly with Mr. Kuti who was very helpful and replied very quickly to my various questions by giving me all the details so that I can make a decision. My experience was
very good and everything went as I expected. I would refer Wildebeest Safaris without any hesitation

Garden Route Tour.
We went to Cape Town on a conference and wanted to spend some time after the conference seeing S. Africa. Southern Africa Tours organized a trip for us, suggesting things to do and places to stay. They arranged a driver and car for us, accommodations etc.... The driver was great and suggested changes to the planned itinerary which made for a better trip. All the accommodations were very good; the provided meals were also great. We felt our cost was quite reasonable, considering we had a custom tour just for us. S. Africa is a wonderful country to visit and we really loved our tour. S. Africa has everything; mountains, oceans, lakes, forests, good climate, good food, wildlife and friendly people; the scenery in incredible. I would recommend Southern Africa Tours to anyone considering a tour there.

Everything was impeccable
I went to Kenya and Uganda with this tour operator and everything was perfect: the tour was focused on what I wanted to see, the guides are friendly, professional and well-informed about the nature, the environment and the wildlife.
I surely recommend Around Africa Safaris to all my friends and people who want to experience an African safari.

3 day safari
We were in a small group with 6 People including the cook,the guide,and a canadian boy with his father. Freddie the guide was really nice,he could answer all questions about the park and the animals and always checked if we were okay.
During these 3 days we could see lions and elephants only 2 Meters away,that was amazing!
The food is also really good,for the last breakfast we had for examale pancakes, sausages, toast, fruits, ..
I really enjoyed the safari and if it wasn't that expensive I would have stayed for a few days longer.
