Amazing Country
Over all the trip was great. I saw a lot of the country and a lot of birds and animals. The places we stayed were great and the staff at the different locations were all friendly and very helpful. The Gorilla trekking was difficult but amazing and very worth it!!! Trekking to see the Chimpanzees and the Golden Monkeys were also amazing.
I was surprised at the beautiful countryside and the variety of different wildlife in Uganda. From the Rhino Reserve, to Murchison Falls National Park, to Queen Elizabeth National Park the sightings were amazing. Definitely do the off-road experience in Queen Elizabeth State Park otherwise the lions and leopards are far away.
Bwindi with the Gorillas was a once in a life time experience. If you're not in shape, take the easy hike! The medium hike was 2.5 hours up and down in the steep forest- hire porter as they are a life saver. The hike out was another 2 hours straight up!
I really enjoyed the walking safari in Lake Mburo National Park. It was pretty amazing to walk with the giraffe, the zebra, and the other animals. If you like safaris, Uganda is a must!
The only negative on my trip was two blown tires on our van. To me this was a safety issue and vehicles should be thoroughly check out before going on the road. Also- there was not a lug wrench in the vehicle to change the tire. Big oversight!

The most disappointing thing I’ve experienced
Where do you even begin…..the park is so run down. When we arrived at the first gate we were only then notified that the gate was closed and had to use an alternative gate , at the second gate staff were extremely unfriendly and it could clearly be felt. There are very few animals on such a large property, the “tarred” roads are in such bad condition that they are basically non-existent and one of the hides we stopped at was boarded up with no note at the top gate and the conservationist that had stopped at the hide as well also didn’t bother to notify us, we later read in reviews that it’s been that way for more than 6 months. With the advertised prices at the lodges found within the park the question begs where the money for maintenance and conservation is going.

Amazing Safari in Kenya
I highly recommend Kevic Safari for an incredible safari experience in Kenya. It’s a small, local business that provides personal attention and will take a great care of you.
Felister ensured that everything, from planning to the trip itself and all the way to the very end, was well-organized and stress-free. Our driver, Samuel, made us feel at ease with his friendly attitude and patience. He was always attentive to our needs, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable safari. With our focus on capturing great photos, it wasn’t an easy task, but Samuel made it happen! During our 6-day safari, we saw every animal I had hoped for.
On top of that, Felister and Samuel arranged an extra day for us in Nairobi, which turned out to be amazing as well.

Unforgettable Safari Experience
Our safari in Kenya was truly unforgettable. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, making our journey seamless and stress-free. Mainly thanks to our incredible guide Joshua. Joshua was not only highly knowledgeable about the wildlife, ecosystems, and local culture but also passionate about sharing insights that made the experience even more special.
Every game drive was an adventure filled with breathtaking sightings, from the Big Five to hidden gems we never would have spotted on our own. His expertise, professionalism, and warm hospitality made us feel safe, comfortable, and fully immersed in the beauty of Kenya.
If you’re looking for a top safari experience with an outstanding guide and flawless organization, this is the team to choose. Highly recommended!

Good
We had a 6 days tour in Kenya and 4 days in Tanzania. Visited Masai Mara, lake Nakuru and Amboseli. Or Guide Dennis is very aggressive and fast driver in looking for animals. We have saw all the big five animals in the first and second day. Accommodations in tent is preliminary as we are on budget tour. Local food here is a bit salty and dry here. In Tanzania we cover Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We had our guide Hozza is a very experience guide and has eagle eyes in spotting for animals. He shares his knowledge on animals’ habitat. Our Chef Kisaodi cooks according to our taste. Tried Ugali for the first time. Recommended for a try for local food. Toilet is clean in all parks. Sleeping bags were not so clean as we slept in the tent, preferable to bring own sleeping bag. Overall, we have good view of animal’s habitat in different parks with diverse scenery for photography.

Excellent guide and also driver giving us best game drive experience
Thanks to the delayed dry season, it has given us the opportunity to see all the animals and the migration of animals. Our guide and driver - Mr.Ombeni from Gosheni Safaris has provided us the best experience for the whole tour

Personable, informative, interactive and all round fun.
We had the best outing, myself and a crew other friends. We had an amazing time first at Nairobi national park, where we were able to do a short but quite interesting outing with the friends that had a quick layover in Nairobi. Had an early start of 6am from the hotel where they pick you up, coffee plus all the updates on the day’s activities. What can I say?, I could write all day, but AfricanSkimmers are just that, they will skim through the troughs to make sure you witness all the magic the safari has to offer. Thanks to you Nicholas and team, we hope to be back soon!.

Easy to deal with , and delivered amazing Experiance
Overall a great experience from the pick up at joburg airport by Wade , though a long drive, would advise flying to Nelspruit if you have the option, as much closer to Kruger.
Wade was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. The camps were basic but clean with well stocked shops , all you really need as you don’t sleep much, because of the early/late safaris. We saw the big 5 within 1.5 hrs on the first evening safari then saw the big five another two times . Wade and the assigned safari guides know exactly where to take you to see the ever moving beautiful animals you hope to see but are never guaranteed.
We will go back again to North Kruger did south this time . South in March is very lush and dense , so we were lucky to see big 5 three times.
Only thing we didn’t see which hopefully we will see in the winter in the north is cheetahs.
Would highly recommend the company.
Thanks Wade and the team.

4 amazing days in Murchinson Falls
My experience was amazing and it was due to my guide Michael and the amazing nature. Michael was smiling and nice. I was alone for this travel but thanks to Michael it feels like home. I had the opportunity to see a lot of animals (chimpanzee monkeys girafa elefant lions hiena rhino …) and the landscape of murchinson falls was incredible
