Excellent curating and organisation and brillant guiding creates a outstanding trip-experience
Pride Nature Safaris welcomed us warmly at Entebbe Aiport with a helping hand at the immigration desk to make shure, that everything works quickly. Than we met Irene from the Company introducing us to our amazing guide David and the comfortable 4x4 Landcruiser, well fitted with drinking water, kleenex and antibacteriel tissus. Everything was perfect organized and we started our absolutely exciting trip to the different National Parks of Uganda. We did day and night game drives, boattrips, nature walks, community activities, primate tracking (Gorillas and Chimpanzees), swamp walks and canoe trips, all of them very intense experiences we will not forget. Walking with Rhinos, Giraffes, Zebras and meeting the Silverback at a distance of 5 meters was outstanding. David is highly experienced in finding the cats on game drives, knows which ranger to book for a walk or night drive, can tell you the stories of the different tribes in Uganda as well as he can identify every bird by its call. He also found a taylor who repaired one of our bags while we are on chimpanzee tracking and bought some fruits for a later picnic at the shore of the nile. We learned a lot from him and had much fun together. Several times David had ideas what to see out of the itinery along our route and we could handle it flexibel (for example another night drive, the visit of the pangolin rescue center in Bwindi or a boat trip through the Mabamba Swamps with a water taxi transfer back to Entebbe instead of driving by car). The Lodges and Camps were amazing and cozy, all with a great view and very nice people who treated us warmly like part of their family. The food was healthy and tasty. In our opinion the price is absolutely fair and reasonable, the communication was quick and easy, the experience we got was extraordinary in all parts: wildlife encounters, organisation, guiding, the people, the Camps and Lodges. We can highly recommend Pride Nature Safaris for individual private trips.

Very kind and an expert of the animals, nature and history of Tanzania
Thanks to our excellent guide, we saw many animals (lions, giraffes, monkeys, zebras, gnus, various antelopes, hyenas, hippos, buffalos, many birds, many elephants), even a rhino. Everything was to us very well and all our questions were answered excellently. All in all, I can recommend this safari to anyone.

Makes the safari dream come true!
The organization of the entire safari (pick-up at the hotel, transfer, flight, safari, accommodation) was perfect and went smoothly. I would especially like to thank our tour guide “Gilbert”, who not only told us a lot about the animals and nature, but also always looked for the best places to observe the animals - and was always friendly and courteous. We even saw a rhino, which is very rare. Together, we had 3 unforgettable days in Tanzania!

The best Safarii !!
The e-mail communication before the trip was comprehensive and extremely professional. We were offered a trip that was perfectly tailored to our needs. We chose a four-day Safari. We flew to Arushi from Zanzibar and were picked up by the office staff. The staff informed us about the itinerary and safety during the trip. Our guide and cook were completely professional. Thanks to their great experience, we started every day on time, so we were able to see much more than other groups. The meals cooked by our cook were large and varied, considering the difficult conditions of the trip. Thanks to the experience of the guide/driver, we were able to meet the "big five" as well as other species of animals. We spent two nights in tents, one in the hotel. Cold drinks were available during the trip, water, cola, beer. After the trip, Linah from the administration visited us to talk to us directly about our experience and possible points of criticism for improvement. In summary, we returned very happy with the trip and I am happy to recommend the office.

Wonderful safari
Splendid Vacations was a wonderful choice. Alice, our tour operator, was responsive and kind, adjusted the safari according to our needs, and was the only operator providing transparent pricing, which we appreciated. She was always available and communicated with us throughout the safari. Tim, our guide, really made the trip. He has had many years of experience, which meant he was very knowledgeable of the animals and the best way to see them, and adjusted the schedule to our needs. He was also an excellent driver (which is very much appreciated in the Kenyan roads!).

Aquila Private Game Reserve - a great alternative
We had a short but great experience visiting Aquila Private Game Reserve - just two hours from Cape Town. It's a good alternative, when you have not so much time to see some "wild" animals. The service of Gems of Africa Safari and Tours was great, especially their communication and patience..., since we had some complicated problems by transferring the payment.

Amazing safari
Kochely Tours and Travels is the best company I can recommend to anybody who wants to go for safari in Kenya. My first safari experience was in Kenya's Masai Mara, an unforgettable week that brought sightings of each one of the Big Five and to date my only glimpse of lions on a hunt. Kenya is the archetypal safari spot, boasting flat savannah land dotted with acacia trees, tribal guides in customary dress and the iconic image of giraffes grazing to a backdrop of Kilimanjaro's snow-capped peak. Although all offer something special, parks vary considerably, with the northern reserves such as Samburu often offering a wilder, more rough around the edges experience than southern parks like Tsavo and the Masai Mara. It was in Samburu that we returned to our overland truck after an amazing drive to find that vervet monkeys had found their way in, stolen our snacks and left some not-such-pleasant presents in their place!! Although most people visit with only animals in mind, there is a lot more to the country than wildlife, including scenic hikes up and around Mount Kenya and beautiful beaches along the Indian Ocean coastline.A big shout out to our guide paul who made sure everything was well with us throughout our safari.
