Farouk was very attentive!
Kaara adventures was able to customize my itinerary to check every item on my list. My tour guide was professional and very attentive to me and watchful of the services I received in hotels, restaurants etc. Communication with the Kaara office was stellar. "Budget" accommodations were better than expected.
Some things to note, if you come from a cold place, what they consider cold will feel hot to you, so adjust your packing list accordingly.
Also, in Rwanda and Uganda, tips are expected everywhere so be prepared with cash even if the meal/hotel is covered by the tour.

Very hospitable and friendly
We hired a private vehicle with a guide to go around Masai Mara, Amboseli, Nakuru and Naivasha. We were lucky to have Julius as our guide, who was wise, chatty, knowledgeable and fun. The choice of hotels was great too.
The only thing I would change is the order in which we visited places - having Masai Mara as the first place meant that every other place we visited struggled to live up to the expectations set by the Mara.

Warm and friendly
James our tour manager was responsive and warm. He helped organise a wonderful 8 day safari across Kenya.
Our tour guide, Julius was a great find! With over 20 years of experience, He was knowledgeable and friendly. We were at utmost comfort and ease with Julius and would not shy away from coming to Masai again for another memorable trip!

Magnificent once in a lifetime experience!
I spent days researching a trip to Uganda to see the birds, chimpanzees and gorillas. I was immediately drawn to Unveil Safari because Ronald was by far the most prompt and personable of the tour guides that sent me quotes. I like that. He immediately got on WhatsApp and answered all my questions and rearranged the itinerary to be perfect for me. I flew into into Entebbe and wanted a day before I left for the Treks because I knew that I would be tired. For my rest day, I arranged a a birdwatching experience where I got to see the shoebill. There are not words to describe what it’s like to see this beautiful bird in person. The following day we drove up for that gorilla truck the laundry we stayed at was wonderful, organized, and very friendly. The next morning I went on the chimpanzee trek, and after that we drove to the mountains so that we could stay the Gorilla Lodge and I could do the gorilla trek the next day. I have traveled all over the world, and I have never seen anything as beautiful as the mountains of Uganda. The Gorilla Lodge was also wonderful and the next morning the gorilla trek was a life-changing experience. This is my first time traveling solo and I felt so safe and well taken care of the entire trip.
Ronald is polite and respectful, and easy to be with whether we were telling stories or just sitting and watching the beautiful scenery as we drove. He was informative and extremely well prepared, and he is an excellent driver. If you were looking to book an experience in Uganda, this is the company that you want to use. I will never forget this once in a lifetime experience.
Side note: bring a mask, gators to cover your legs in the mountains, compression socks or long socks, and gardening gloves so that you will be well prepared in the jungle.

Unforgettable experience with amazing wildlife, great food, and a brilliant guide!
Incredible trip! The highlight was seeing a cheetah and her cubs. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro were absolutely stunning, and camping in such beautiful places was unforgettable. The food was great, and our driver Shabani was fun, knowledgeable, and made everything easy.

Amazing experience! My first time in Kruger
A very clear and sunny day in the Kruger National Park. We were able to explore a big section of the park and see +20 animals including elephants, lions, hippos and many others. Our guide, Eddie The Happy Chappy was great!!! He really did his best to make sure we were having a good time and he was very open to answer all our questions. Would love to come back with my whole family!
