Fantastic guide
I booked a 3 day safari with super Eagles Travel. It went smoothly and our guide James gave us a fantastic tour in Masai Mara with lots of information about the wildlife and the Masai culture. The price was higher than estimated by safaribookings, I paid $100 more then other tourists in the same accommodation. Would recommend it anyway, though.

Trip of a lifetime
This trip far exceeded my expectations. A 1 to 1 safari with Tim my guide, whose knowledge of the animals and birds of Uganda was incredible. I booked 10 days including Chimpanzee trekking and Mountain Gorilla trekking. This was about right for me and I would not have wanted less. The accommodation was far better than I expected and the food was simple and very tasty.
Tim was always on hand if I needed him but allowed me to do my own thing in the evenings which was great. I saw everything I wanted to see including the main reason for going which was the Gorillas. The hour I spent with them was unforgettable.
I loved my visit to Uganda and loved the people who are so friendly and kind. I would highly recommend BIG APES as an operator and would definitely recommend Tim as a guide. Take a good pair of binoculars but there really is no need for a camera with a 6 foot lens. I took all my photos using an iPhone as the wildlife is that close!!
Thank you Tim for making the trip one of the most memorable experiences of my life.

It was truly an amazing experience, everything was well organized.
The guides are very attentive and caring. Irene is always available if you have any questions or to find out how the safari is going. I thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but I think it's worth doing again.

Professional, reliable, and passionate – African Travels made our dream trip to Uganda memorable!
We had an amazing experience with African Travels on our recent trip to Uganda. The itinerary was well-organized, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The activities were diverse and memorable – from wildlife safaris to gorilla and chimpanzee trekking – offering a great mix of nature, culture, and adventure.
Communication with Marijnke during the planning process was AMAZING, clear, helpful, and very professional. She made sure everything was tailored to our wishes and responded quickly whenever we had questions. On the ground, our guide was FANTASTIC – friendly, knowledgeable, and always making sure we were comfortable and safe.
We’ve already recommended African Travels to friends and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again for future adventures. Thank you for helping us create such unforgettable memories!

There is no words who can describe our experience.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable trip thanks to Caroline from Tanzibar Travel!
After comparing several quotes for our trip, we chose Caroline from Tanzibar Travel, and we have absolutely no regrets. From the very first contact, she was attentive, available, and remained supportive throughout our entire stay, all the way until we left Zanzibar.
Caroline works with amazing local guides who are both professional and passionate. We were lucky to have Manuel as our guide for the safari, and thanks to his deep knowledge of the parks, we were able to see the Big Five!
Tanzibar Travel is a small, people-centered agency that truly listens to your needs. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and high-quality travel experience, you can trust Caroline with your eyes closed.
Thank you again for this unforgettable adventure!

Exceptional Safari Experience with Denhum Holidays – A Journey of a Lifetime!
From the moment we made our first inquiry, Denhum Holidays impressed us with their professionalism, clear communication, and prompt responses. Every detail of the safari was well thought out, and their team made sure we felt supported before, during, and even after our trip.
Our guide, Hassan, was the heart of this adventure – warm, knowledgeable, punctual, and an absolute joy to travel with. His deep understanding of the Kenyan wildlife, parks, and culture enriched every moment of the journey. Whether we were tracking the Big Five in Masai Mara, enjoying breathtaking sunsets over the savannah, or learning about local traditions, Hassan made it all come alive with his passion and stories.
The vehicle was clean, spacious, and reliable, and the accommodations were comfortable and well-located. We truly felt we got great value for our money with Denhum Holidays – no hidden costs, just quality service and unforgettable experiences.
We highly recommend Denhum Holidays for anyone looking to explore East Africa with a trustworthy, top-tier operator. Thank you, Hassan and the Denhum team, for a truly magical safari!

The most incredible safari experience we've ever had!
Must be the most incredible safari experience we've ever had. We booked the more affordable camping option, and got to enjoy the same game drives as those staying in expensive lodges and I think we were more connected with nature.
Our guide for the safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro was Peter, assisted by Brian, who was the cook on the trip. The food was really good, and Peter can cook! The campsites were clean and well-maintained, and sleeping in tents was an adventure in its own right.
I cannot possibly do justice to how wonderful the whole experience was; we saw tons of animals drawn from diverse species, including some rare sightings of a leopard in Ngorongoro.
I highly recommend Peter as a guide and Migration Venture Africa as a premier organizer for the unbelievable safari experiences!

Professional, knowledgable, good fun & safe!
Wow! What an amazing experience!
So glad we chose this safari company, they were brilliant from start to finish!
Brenda was so helpful organising a 2day safari and Isaac was great guide and safe driver!
First day was Tarangire NP up close with elephants, giraffes & zebras which was amazing, we then stayed overnight in a beautiful Lodge!
Unfortunately our flight was delayed so we were behind all day and late getting to Lodge to make most of it and up early next morning to go to Ngorongoro crater, which is full of animals to spot, not so close as Tarangire but used binoculars and saw lion & rhino in the distance!
It was cold that day and could have done with a sweatshirt, which we didn’t have!
We flew from Zanzibar and other people staying in our resort went for day safari using another company & were really disappointed!
Highly recommend Goldfinch Adventures, they are professional and you feel safe, which if like me safari is a bit out of your comfort zone is very important!
We have wonderful memories and maybe wish we had done a 3 day safari instead of 2! :)

A truly amazing company that will stay with us forever!
Our safari with Leisure Escapes truly was a memorable trip. From the beginning when my partner and I were getting information, Esther was always there to answer any questions/concerns we had. She also constructed us a very detailed itinerary for our safari so that we knew exactly where we were staying whether it be in lodges or hotels, the areas that we would travel to, what meals/drinks were included, what optional extras we could do such as Masai Village visits, boat trips, and what animals we would come across in the different national parks! She was very thorough from the beginning which made us feel at ease.
Our Safari guide Duncan deserves a massive shoutout too. He has 20+ years of Safari experience under his belt. His professionalism, his patience, his knowledge of the animals and his ability to spot animals from a far distance all deserve mentioning! He was the perfect person for us to experience a safari with, and he never let the long hours driving ever dwindle his spirit, he was always focused on giving us the best experience possible and finding the best spots to see the animals up close. You spend so much time with your guide that you build a bond that is sad to leave when you depart.
As for the animals, we saw everything from Lions, hyenas, giraffes, rhinos, elephants, buffalos, hippos, zebras, warthogs the list is endless. To see them freely in their natural habitat truly was a wonderful experience that i will keep with me for a lifetime. It’s so hard to truly put into words how amazing of an experience a safari truly is.
The accommodations chosen by Esther were always top quality! She really listened to what we wanted and found the best places. Special mention to Nepture Mara in Masai Mara, a luxury lodge with an amazing group of staff there, our own Butler, wonderful room with a massive bathroom and views overlooking a river with many hippos swimming and relaxing. The food there was some of the best I’ve ever experienced.
We cannot thank Esther , Duncan and Leisure Escapes as a whole for providing us such an amazing Safari experience. It was everything we wanted and more and was worth every penny spent. As far as value for money goes, they ticked every box for us. We were even provided with Masai Cloths and personalised water bottles on day 1 as gifts which was a nice touch. When we do return there is only one company we will be going for and that is Leisure Escapes.
A truly amazing company that will stay with us forever.
