Amazing Tour Experience
We just finished an amazing 10-day tour of Uganda, seeing an incredible variety of people, places, animals, birds and plants. Our guides were very informed, always helpful, and good humored company l. I'm so grateful for the experience and their excellent support throughout. I highly recommend this tour group.

Unforgettable Trip
Emmanuel and Moses pulled through when our original guide messed everything up. They were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to get along with. I’m grateful we had them as our tour guides. We got to see the Big 5!

Unprofessionell
Absolute disgrace and immense disappointment!
You decide on an operator and a safari because you think the route is great and you like the accommodation. And then you arrive and are completely thrown into the deep end. None of the promised accommodation was received. The route has been changed & the travel plan. The safari including accommodation was simply changed without my knowledge. You get a downgrade without being informed about it. Bottomless impudence. At least 10 hours are lost because you have campers in the car and loading and unloading them takes so much time, which you were never informed about in advance. Communication and organization the worst I have ever experienced.
When I complained to the organizer, I was confronted with incorrect figures about the costs and that my safari was more expensive than I would have paid, which is absolute nonsense. I researched all the costs and came out with a nice profit for the organizer. Frank Robert tried to emotionally blackmail me with false charges and police threats.
The next day he offered me gifts to make up for it. Professionalism and honesty look different. Don't book with this organization, you will only be disappointed and hardly be able to enjoy your safari because none of the promised things (accommodation, German-speaking travel guide, travel route + massive unnecessary lost time, soft drinks and so on) will be adhered to and you will only hear lies and excuses as excuses. Believe the negative reviews and book with a more professional company.
None of the safari participants were satisfied with the process and everyone was disappointed.
In the end he gave me gifts that no one could use and $150 to make up for it and wanted to use it to buy a good rating, so to speak. What unprofessional behavior. You can't go on a safari every week, the disappointment and drama is inexcusable.
You cannot simply change the booked safari without informing the customer and without his consent!!!!
A licensed company is worthless without professional work!

Our driver Benjamin is professional and always on time.
I was skeptical at first about booking from this website, is this legit or scam? But then, when we arrived in Uganda I have proven it’s legit. I paid 25% for reservation beforehand and paid the rest just before we started the journey. All transactions by credit card + 3,5%. It was my first time to encounter someone in Africa who is always on time or earlier to come and fetch/ drive us. Benjamin, our driver took care of us from the start til the end of the activity. Good job! I highly recommend Safari Bookings..

A Time in Lifetime With Hekima Safaris
Life is really interesting especially when you happened to know that one of your classmate who used to dream big made it big now. Now am talking about Elieza Rabiet. My name is Nelson Mandela Ladu and Elieza and I both Studied at Tanzania Adventist Secondary School in Arusha Tanzania. After high school life in 2012 we all separated and by then I came back to South Sudan. Time pass by and one night like a dream come true when I saw my friend Elieza Rabiet advertising his activities on social media and I was really thrilled because this same person used to talk a lot about adventure and no wonder the time has come. January 18th 2025, I had the opportunity to visit my friend Elieza Rabiet and the wonderful work he has been doing. All I wanted to say is that the Safari was awesome and to me an experience of a lifetime. Please if anyone wants a thrilled adventure book with Hekima Safaris and the rest will be memorable.

Elegant & Seamless
I was blown away by the experience. I booked a group tour and we had a great time. When booking through whataspp there was a little misunderstanding but when I met with Daniel in person for the briefing he made things right and apologized for the inconvenience.
When the tour started, I was absolutely blown away. The driver and the chef were absolutely AMAZING I can not say enough good things about the food.
We also got to see so many animals and we got to get so close, shoutout to our driver he was great. Also, the planned itinerary was amazing and I'm happy with the amount of time we had in each park. Also the tents were nice and always set up and waiting for us.
I would. HIGHLY recommend this tour company!

Ngorongoro & Serengeti & Masai Mara with the best team possible
We've just returned from an amazing 6 days safari program in Tanzania & Kenya, where we had the best experience ever, thanks to Time for African Adventures team. We trusted them for the 2nd time (1st time was in 2023) and they met all our expectations. Although with a big group (18 people), they knew how to coordinate the activities in order for us to enjoy every moment as much as possible. Everything was possible for them and we returned with the best memories ever. We highly recommend Time For African Adventures and we look forward to meeting them again.

Amazing service and experience
We really had the best time during our 4-days safari in Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha organised by SunUp Adventures!
The communication with Chris was great, he helped us customise our safari and was always very responsive and kind. He also booked our trains tickets to Mombasa since I could not do it from Italy.
During the safari, our guide David has been simply AMAZING. Not only he was very funny and gave us a lot of information, but he was really able to make our safari a great experience we will remember for ever. He is really talented in spotting animals and went above and beyond to show us the most possible and make it memorable.
We couldn't recommend these guys enough and we really hope to come back one day!

Unbelievable!
Our trip to Tanzania this past December holiday was a once-in-lifetime type experience. Jessica at Dancing Zebra planned the most amazing two weeks for us. Every detail was thought of. We were taken care of every step of the way. We traveled as a family of 4, our daughters are 19 and 17, and this was such a perfect age for the four of us to embark on our first African safari. We are so happy we chose Tanzania for our adventure. The lodges we stayed at were impeccable, the service was top notch and the 3 course meals and buffet breakfasts were outstanding. The real highlight besides all of the amazing animals we saw including all Big 5, and so many more, was our private guide Frank. Frank is absolutely the best guide ever. His knowledge about every animal, every plant, every location we hit along the way far surpassed anything we could have wished for. I literally cried the last day we had to leave Frank. The truck was fully stocked each day for us as well. I would highly recommend this 5 star safari trip to anyone who wants to explore Tanzania with the finest! It was truly a trip of a lifetime!
