This was an awesome experience that I had been looking forward to for years.
My tour with Tubale Safaris in February was an awesome experience. My guide, Shafic Kabanda, was extremely knowledgeable and went to extraordinary lengths to be sure that my experience was as good as it could possibly be. With Shafic's expert guidance I was able to see the Big 5 during my tour. Seeing a leopard making a wart hog kill was special. My experience with Tubale was positive from beginning to end, and I would recommend them to others without reservation.

5* safari in terms of the nature and 3* in terms of organisation
The natural reserves and all parks we visited were amazing, lots of wild animals and beautiful African savannah and nature! Highly recommended! 5 OUT OF 5!! As well our guide was a very helpful person and was sharing a lot about the nature, animals and local life. This was very helpful during the safari. On the other side the organisation of the trip was 3 out of 5. We had problems with every accommodation we stayed like no warm water or no water at all, electricity shutting, bathroom and sewage flooding etc. In every place we had to spend lots of time fixing all of this instead of enjoying the rest after long hours of safari. As well some of the activities were not super well organised like visiting the Hell's gate park, it was very unclear till the moment we arrived there, that we had to pay extra for the bicycles to go through the park, as well to pay extra if we wanted to go to the canyon in that area. As well we were highly advised by our guide to go in the boat tour at Lake Naivasha. It was operated by "The Savannah park" boat company. The sales lady at that place described the trip where we would see giraffes in the 5-10meters distance, almost feeding-from-the-hand experience, as well see a big local snake, lots of other promised things. We paid $100 extra for that trip and we received only 25mins walk within 200 meters distance next to the local cafe with a loud music in it and saw literally few zebras, antelopes and nothing which was promised by that sales lady. We came back from that trip to the sales office and explained the whole situation to the owner of that place and he didn't want to meet us mid-way and compensate us this awful experience for which we paid $100. I WOULD HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE "THE SAVANNAH PARK" BOAT COMPANY AS THEY MISLEAD AND SELL YOU BAD EXPERIENCE FOR LOTS OF MONEY!!!
Besides of all these organizational problems the safari trip was amazing and memorable for a long time -).

Dav Safaris provide you with the adventure of a lifetime!!!
Initially I didn't know who to book with when I began my search but I quickly chose Dav Safaris for the swift communication which was provided to me. My contact while booking was extremely helpful, kind, informative and gracious. The day my adventure began I was scooped up by Jeck, my guide for the next seven days. He was not only thorough while briefing me with important details of my itinerary but kind, funny, easy to be around and extremely efficient in his job responsibilities. He made sure that I had everything I needed, was safe while viewing the most awesome animals on Earth and was well versed and educated regarding the areas we visited, the animals we saw etc. He even helped me sort out a lost phone situation! Jeck is the guide that all guides look to for advice in their game drives. He has over 15 years experience which means he knows how to keep you safe, the roads in which to travel and where to spot the animals. Everyone was looking to spot a leopard, which is rare, and he knew the time of day and where to look and I finally saw one!!! The lodges that Dav Safaris choose for their clients are gorgeous, each different from the next with the most lovely people being employed there. I learned so much from my trip to Uganda. I encourage all who are thinking about Dav to commit to the booking. They will make your dream trip a reality. Request Jeck as your guide and you will not be disappointed.

Helpful and Well organized!
Climbing Kilimanjaro was the hardest thing we have ever done. When we decided to do it, we didn't conduct much research; we simply planned to attempt it while in Tanzania for our honeymoon.
Upon arrival, we looked for trustworthy tour guides, as we had read about scams online. We were initially skeptical about booking online, but choosing this local tour guide turned out to be a fantastic decision! Elias was incredibly helpful, always easy to contact, and assisted us with all our questions and concerns. He even managed to organize everything at the last minute.
The team that accompanied us on our Kilimanjaro climb was professional and extremely supportive. Even when we felt it was impossible, they cheered us on and encouraged us every step of the way. We were often the last ones on the trail each day, and we doubted whether we would be able to reach the summit under the circumstances. However, our tour guides always believed in us, remained patient, and never once criticized us. Their unwavering support made all the difference—without them, we wouldn’t have made it!
Thank you, Nafika, for helping us achieve this dream!

John should be awarded for being simply the best!
Took a 4-day Safari with John and Chef Mami. Honestly, best money ever spent on an amazing overall experience from start to finish! John Wilber above and beyond to ensure each day was majestic and really went out of his way to create a truly memorable experience!
I wish there were more John’s in the world and Mountain Warriors is lucky to have a one of a kind guide! Highly recommend him as you will wish you stayed longer! Asante John!

John is amazing !
This year for my birthday, I traveled to Tanzania for a dream vacation that included a four-day safari, and I couldn’t be happier that John was our tour guide. From the moment my husband and I met him, we knew we were in for a fantastic experience! John was incredibly personable, and his enthusiasm was infectious. Throughout the four days, he was attentive and shared an impressive wealth of knowledge. Despite it being the low season, we saw an incredible variety of animals, and the experience was truly beyond my expectations. Thank you, John and Mountain Warriors, for making my birthday so memorable!

Friendly and quite helpful
The safari was amazing. The check in in Zanzibar was really fast, the flight was short and there the jeeps were already waiting for us and we started the safari immediately. We saw so many animals, lions, elephants, zebras,..
The lodge was really amazing and the staff was so nice. On the second day we made a boat safari.
