As great as expected
First, we've been happily surprised that all gone as expected. Driver was waiting for us at the ferry station. We had a great transport time with him as he appears to be a very nice and enjoyable guy. Meal on the road was also good. He tried to do his best to show us a variety of animals in Mikumi National Park and to teach us interesting facts about wild life. The hotel booked by Gecko for the night was a great and confortable moment for people beeing backpacking for days. The only cons was the meal on the way back which was kind of sandwiches not as fresh that it would need to be. In summary, I would recommend Gecko adventure.

Tarangire home of Elephants
We booked a camping Safari with Safari hub and had a super experience. We spent 3 days in Tarangire and saw so many elephants, my favorite animal so I was very happy. It was worth visiitng Tanzania and I am glad we camped as its gives a better Safari experience - Our driver Stanley was very good and helpful.
A very responsive and friendly operation providing good safari options of an excellent standard.
We (myself, husband and 2 university aged children) have just had a fantastic experience in Ruaha NP, in January 2015. We used Tatanca Safaris, Iringa who organized all of our travel/safari/accommodation. The whole experience was brilliant and stress free. Ruhua River Lodge is beautiful and is right on the Ruaha River and yes the hippos do wander past your bandas each morning. Ruaha is a gem and it’s great to not feel like you are on a freeway of safari trucks. Tatanca Safaris were fantastic, very helpful and provided a range of options to suit our style and budget. They really understood that this was a special experience for us to celebrate our daughter’s 21st and as a family adventure. Tatanca Safaris provided and excellent guide/driver, Habibo, who was very knowledgeable, punctual and just great to be around. Met all of out expectations & more, I would happily return to Ruaha Park and would definitely use Tatanca Safaris again.

magnificent group tour to Kenya and Tanzania
I had always wished to visit Kenya and Tanzania and in my search I came
across Kenya budget holiday and fortunately enough they were offering
safari services to both Kenya and Tanzania.we were picked at the airport
together with other guests from different countries doing the same
safari.
we started with lake nakaru and we saw flamingo and was excited to see
the rhinos.we headed to Naivasha for boat ride and it felt wow 6 in each
boat we were quite a number then our last Kenyan portion to crown it all
was and we caught the migration of the wildebeest live.The driver
guide John was no doubt an expert in safari.
My second portion of dream was slowly becoming a reality we entered
Tanzania for Serengeti similar to Masai Mara somehow in terms of the
ecosystem.sunset game drive was an experience in its own.
We then went to the ngorongoro crater with the jeep,was equally a
wonderful scenery to behold..
Kenya budget holiday we loved your services and on behalf of my other 3
friends i would like to say thank you for making our dream a
reality.Africa for me is a must visit in case i would want a second view
of wildlife.

They won a contest
Why did I choose Cheetah Safaris? If you seek a list of tour operators on Uganda Wildlife Authority website you will see almost 140 companies. I accessed all sites. Out of those, I selected nine with more reasonable, feasible and complete information about Mt. Elgon. I would like to spend an one-week trekking there.
I sent e-mails for those nine companies and received replies from four of them. I selected the best and more attentive two answers. I requested an evaluation of prices and Cheetah Safaris gave the best price.
I promptly receive all sort of information before the trekking. And after that, I was requested to fill in a form where I could put my comments. I recommend their services. Everything worked out very well. We even added a trip to Murchison Falls after Elgon and Robert and Jacqueline, the owners of the company, were our very friendly guides.

9 day Uganda/Rwanda Adventure
Encounter Africa Safari and especially our guide Tolbert exceeded my expectations. From my very first enquiry e-mail Tolbert was prompt with his replies and very helpful in planning our 9 day itinerary to meet our needs. After contacting several companies for quotations and information, I found Tolbert and Encounters had the best customer service, the most professional and detailed (clearly written) itineraries and hands down the best pricing available.
Upon arrival we were greeted by Tolbert and had a very enjoyable first drive to our hotel in Kampala. We travelled throughout the 9 days in a Modified 4x4 Safari van which was spacious, comfortable and well maintained. The interior of the van was tidied each day before we set out on our drives and when the exterior of the van got too dirty from the dusty dirt roads, it was cleaned.
Tolbert accommodated our many requests for pit stops here and there throughout the trip. He had a good sense of humor and was a pleasure to have host us in Uganda. Through our itinerary we had many flawless adventures including chimp tracking, gorilla tracking, Murchison Falls land and boat Safari, Mt. Sabyinyo volcano hike, Rhino Sanctuary and exploring the towns. Our final days of the trip were spent in Rwanda, where Tolbert contacted one of his local friends/guide to assist us with information in Rwanda and the navigation. It was a pleasure to have him on board for our last day.
To finalize, I am extremely happy with the services provided by Encounter Africa Safari and Tolbert. I will most certainly be passing on their business information to my many friends and colleagues who travel on a regular basis.
Thanks again for this great and memorable trip to these two beautiful countries.

Can't say enough positive things
There is just too much good information to share in a review on a web site. Our Affable Tour friends were AWESOME!! They took excellent care of us, getting to and from our destinations safely. They marshalled a herd of 11 distinct individuals with total finese. They arranged for us to stay at fantastic camps and lodges that would make 5-star hotels here in the States jealous. And thanks to their scouting efforts, we saw all of the Big 5 and many, many more. In fact, if you want to see how great it was, check out this link to see some video I took on the trip: http://youtu.be/DR5Ly6s36Ak. I highly recommend Affable Tours & Safaris.
