Satisfying
Franklin was a very nice young guide and we really had a satisfying experience with him. We saw incredibly views like from the lion king movie and of course hippos, giraffes, elephants and LIONs. I was able to contact him easily through whatsapp and he would respond quick. Very good value for money compared to other out there. This safari is mainly for adventurous people that like to wake up early. For improvement I recommend him allthough he answered to my messages he could send me more details and info beforehand, like plane tickets, for the customer to feel safe. Also it would be great that he add the whole schedule in the pdf. (6 am plane, 7-16 safari, 17 lodge 20 dinner, next day 6 morning bush walk, 8 breakfast, 10 boat safari, masai village visit back zanzibar…)

Most caring and organized tour operator!
A truly great safari experience goes beyond just spotting wildlife; it’s a holistic and transformative journey that engages all the senses and leaves a lasting impact.
A great safari will maximize opportunities for close-up, respectful wildlife viewing in their natural habitats. This includes encounters with the “big five “ (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo), as well as other diverse species, such as zebras, hippos, alligators, and a vast array of bird life . A knowledgeable and passionate guide is crucial. They are not just drivers. They are interpreters of the wilderness. Sharing their expertise on animal behavior, ecosystems and conservation efforts. A great guide will enhance your understanding and appreciation of the environment, making the experience, educational and insightful.they also play a vital role in ensuring safety during wildlife encounters. A truly great safari extends beyond the wildlife, allowing for meaningful interactions with local communities and a glimpse into their way of life. This can include visiting local villages, markets, engaging in cultural activities, fostering a deeper understanding of the regions, people and traditions. Our accommodations were luxurious and rustic at the same time. I would highly recommend this tour guide and I hope to repeat the trip in a year or two.

Best guide ever!
We had the great pleasure of traveling through Uganda with EBS. Our guide - Robert - from the very first day proved to be highly professional, tactful, and caring. He made sure every aspect of our trip was perfectly organized, so our family could feel safe and comfortable at all times.
Robert always fulfilled our requests with a smile – for example, he helped us find the perfect place in Kampala where our daughter could get her dream braids. When another family joined our group, it was clear he knew exactly how to organize things so that everyone felt safe and well taken care of.
During our safari in Queen Elizabeth Park, Robert demonstrated an impressive knowledge of the area, as well as of animals, birds, and plants, which he shared in an engaging way. We saw elephants, chimpanzees, baboons, leapards, zebras, antelopes, hippos and many more.He remained calm in challenging situations – whether it was when a wheel got stuck in a ditch or when we were driving to the hotel late at night – always finding solutions with composure and without panic.
We truly appreciated his help with local shopping in the village, his sense of when to actively share stories and when to give us space, and his great rapport with both adults and teenagers. Robert was always punctual, full of energy, and ready for action. He answered our most unusual questions about the social, political, and everyday life of the people of Uganda.
Later, during the rest of our trip in Africa (Nairobi and Zanzibar), when we were guided by others (from different companies), we often thought of Robert and missed his dedication, tact, and smile. With Robert, we felt like we were part of Uganda. We were looked after in every possible way and could fully enjoy our journey.
We wholeheartedly recommend EBS and Robert to anyone planning a trip to Uganda. He is truly a guide you will remember for a long time! Warm regards Robert – we all miss the time we spent with you!

Super Eagles made our Safari super enjoyable
Our guide Alvin is an experienced professional. He knows many fellow tour guides and exchanged animal sightings information so we got to see lions, leopards, and cheetahs quite easily. He was very punctual meeting us every day, answered every questions we asked about animals, plants, and Masai culture. He also is passionate about wild animals and help park rangers to care wild animals. With his help, we saw all big fives and wildebeests and zebras crossing Mara River and we are very happy with this Safari trip

The tour was absolutely worth every singular penny. Highly recommended.
Our driver Kevin was such a great service minded and helpful driver in our safari. Kevin made sure we had a great time and got close to all the different animals.
The trip included top notch lounges to kickback and relax after an amazing drive in the parks.
Such a great experience and will recommend at the highest.

An incredible adventure with Goodluck and Habitat Adventures
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
What an experience with Goodluck and his staff! We (2 couples-no kids) were fortunate to travel with him for our 8 day safari through the major parks (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the Central/Northern Serengeti) and he is the ultimate professional. From the beginning of the planning process (9 months before the trip with amazing response times via email and Whatsapp from Goodluck) until our final ride to the airport in Arusha Goodluck was responsive, helpful, warm, detail oriented, caring and incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the animals. Our lodging was amazing and even when there was a slight change in our lodging plan in the north he adapted and it did not dampen the experience. He is a very safe driver and while we were tired from all of the bumpy roads and long drives between parks, Goodluck never seemed to tire and kept up his energy level throughout. Our trips outside of the parks (Arusha, Materuni waterfall hike, coffee bar lunch-amazing) were also planned with thoughtful detail and we were all incredibly pleased with every aspect of the trip. Goodluck's demeanor and experience added so much and we all became friends and I know we will stay in touch and hopefully he will visit us in the USA. While it is a much smaller safari company then many of the others, we never felt like we were not receiving a full experience and everything we did was carefully planned and well executed. You will not go wrong with using Habitat Adventures for your trip to this amazing country.

Wonderful safari experience
Our trip with Sunset Adventure Safari surpassed my expectations. They were helpful and accommodating helping us customize an itinerary for our family. Our guide Elemes was great. We were consistently impressed with his ability to drive safely on the often challenging terrain and navigate in the parks which have very few road signs. He was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about all the different animals, their habits and their habitats. I was surprised by how many animals we got to see both in terms of different types of animals and overall number of animals! We got some wonderful photos and memories to last a lifetime.
