Blown away by Suricata!
We were blow away by our safari experience with Suricata! We saw so much wildlife, including all of the big 5, most of which were up close and personal. Our accommodations were great, especially the Suricata Boma Lodge! The food was also great! Our guide, Gordon, was very experienced and excellent at spotting animals and navigating tough roads. Hands down one of the best and most unique travel experiences I’ve ever had!

6days safari
We booked a shared safari with Serengeti Landmark Tours and were very satisfied.
Raymond Ayo responded quickly to our questions.
The tour was wonderful, and we saw a lot of animals. The highlights were:
1. A large group of zebras—we were completely surrounded! I don’t know how many there were, but I think almost more than 500, including little ones.
2. A lion eating a wildebeest.
3. A group of wildebeests and zebras crossing the road—it felt like the Great Migration.
4. The stunning scenery and the drive into the Ngorongoro Crater—just amazing; what a wonderful world!
Clifford, our driver/guide, did his absolute best to make sure we saw all the animals, including multiple lion sightings. He is an excellent driver and guide, very friendly, and always attentive to our comfort.
Kelvin, our cook, put great effort into making our meals delicious. Every morning, he baked fresh pancakes and bread. His cooking made our experience even better, and he was also very friendly.
We are very grateful to both of them!

2 day to Murchison Falls
We had only a short window of time to fit in a safari while in Uganda and were happy we chose Gatsio. We fit a lot in during our 2 day visit, saw all the animals we hoped for, and stayed in comfortable accommodations. The company was easy to books, communicate with, on time. The guide was friendly and knowledgable. I would book with Gatsio again.

Top Experience With Leopard Orchid
As Safaribookings recommends, I sent out requests for information for the same tour to three different providers. It quickly became clear that Leopard Orchid would be the right choice for me. They provided clear and prompt responses each time I contacted them. They were able to accommodate a special request and I was impressed with their follow-through. The guide I was assigned, Paul, worked hard to find the best places to stop and we had many wonderful encounters. His easy-going nature really helped me relax and enjoy the entire experience. If I have the chance to return to Kenya someday, I will book with Leopard Orchid Safaris again.

Punctual, Friendly, and Helpful
Our tour operator was punctual to pick us up and bring us to the tour destination at the border of Botswana. He was a safe driver and made is comfortable while in the van. He stayed with the group while we went through customs and helped coach us along, which I really appreciated. The whole day went without any hiccups despite there being many times when things could have gone wrong. Overall we had a great time and I would definitely recommend this tour company to others.

Very competent and professional....
When I was looking to make one of my dreams come true - to go and see the gorillas in Uganda - I searched the many websites and found a customised trip. It was the ‘’5-Day Primates and Wildlife Adventure in Uganda‘’ at a very reasonable price. It was the owner of the agency (TrueVine) himself who introduced us to this beautiful country. Mr Bernard is a really nice guy who knows the area very well.
I would recommend this destination with this agency without any hesitation.
Thank you Mr Bernard

Safari.com Was the Perfect Solution
I found myself as a solo woman traveler in Kenya. I had been in Nairobi on business, and wanted to experience a Safari in the Maasai Mara. I only had 2.5 days available to me, and wasn’t sure how to proceed with booking a safari experience that was safe, time effective, cost effective, and still provided the type of safari experience I was looking for. Safari.com was the perfect solution! I was able to share the type of experience I was looking for, and was quickly presented with 4 different options to choose from. The option I ultimately selected was absolutely perfect!! I highly recommend the safari.com process if you are unsure of the direction to take. I was 100% satisfied!

Organised, responsive team, excellent itinerary, accommodation, transfers and knowledgeable guide
From first contact John F in the office put together an itinerary to suit us with lodges and all transfers. We were met at every step along the way by local drivers. Our guide Bariki was amazing, he shared his knowledge of plants, habitats, tribal history and animal behaviour throughout the 5 day safari. His passion for wildlife was respectful and shared amongst other guides. We really felt privileged to be amongst an abundance of wildlife. Thank you JM Tours for making this Safari a dream come true.

What an amazing tour company, a wonderful and amazing trip
Ecovic Tours and Travel Uganda really delivered on a wonderful trip for us. The accommodations were all great. All the food & meals were excellent. Our tour guide Gerald was amazing! He was so knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable throughout our whole trip. He also made sure to help us with our trip checklist of animals we hoped to see, including Gorillas, Chimps, the big five and a shoebill stork on our way to the airport! So cool! What an amazing trip!

Great value and an experience of a lifetime
Communication was good before we arrived. We were picked up from our hotel and put on a jeep ready for our adventure. And it was brilliant. A proper authentic safari experience.
Now, After being on the wonderful 6 day safari it is safe to say that the guide can make or break your experience.
In comes the one and only Johnny Jackson. I felt safe while he was driving (the vast amount of time is spent in a jeep so plan accordingly. Phone, books, snacks, comfort, water etc))
And he was a lovely, kind and funny guy.
But the best thing about Johnny is how good he was on the safari. (What we came for) he knew the facts, had quizzes and knew just where to park for the ultimate experience.
Two thumbs up :)
