Very friendly and helpful, an amazing experience
Absolutely worth the money — a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience!
From start to finish, the entire journey was unforgettable. Joshua, who helped organize everything, was incredibly friendly and responsive, answering every question I had with patience and professionalism. Our safari driver, Muyonga, was equally amazing — knowledgeable, kind, and made the whole adventure even more enjoyable.
The safari itself was breathtaking. I can't recommend this experience highly enough!

Memorable 4-Day Safari with Meru Slopes – Highly Recommended!
I recently completed a 4-day safari with Meru Slopes and had a fantastic experience. From start to finish, I felt well taken care of by Jerome, who was always available and answered all my questions promptly. His communication was outstanding and made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
Our driver, Daniel, was outstanding—his 25+ years of experience really showed. He drove safely and always made sure we had plenty of time to take photos whenever we spotted wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw 4 out of the Big 5, missing only the elusive leopard. It truly felt like a dream come true!
A special mention to Meru Slopes for providing complimentary transportation and a night at the hotel before the safari began. This thoughtful gesture ensured we were well-rested and ready for our adventure in the morning.
Our cook, Doula, was very kind and ensured we were well-fed. While there wasn’t a huge variety in the meals, the food was good and satisfying. The camping equipment provided was decent, though the sleeping bags and pillows could have used a bit more cleaning.
Overall, I am happy to give a 5-star review because of the amazing communication with Jerome and the excellent transportation and accommodation provided. Thank you to the Meru Slopes team for an unforgettable adventure!

Fabulous team & unforgettable experience
In late May, without prior trekking experience, I decided out of the blue to attempt Kilimanjaro via the Machame (Whiskey) route on 6 days. The only thing that was clear to me was that I would secure the services of a local operator. And Almighty Kilimanjaro went above and beyond my expectations.
Before the trek, all went smoothly: logistics, briefing, equipment (and private toilet) rentals, stay at the Salinero...
Then I was blessed to share my little challenge with a wonderful group of seven individuals led by my guide Muntari. They brought their A+ game every step of the way. Muntari was not only great at managing our pace but he also provided remarkable insights about the fauna & flora we encountered throughout the climb.
Shabani (Chef) and Chaz (Waiter) were an amazing one-two punch also, ensuring I was properly fed & hydrated. These two accompanied me & Muntari on the summit attempt, helping me push through several moments of vulnerability.
Also the porters were extremely kind and happy seeing me reach daily milestones. I was not aware of what it takes to 'carry' a client to Uhuru Peak and back. I would like to give a massive shout-out to the full guild of porters. The efforts shall be acknowledged and celebrated.
All in all, it was a superb experience I will remember forever. Should I decide to do it again in the future, Almighty Kilimanjaro would be my pick again, without a doubt.

Had an incredible trip with Josana Tours—Joseph was patient and clear with planning, and Boniface’s
We had an amazing experience with Josana Tours! Right from the start, Joseph was extremely patient with all our queries—always calm, clear, and helpful in planning our itinerary. Everything was well-organized and smooth.
Our driver and guide, Boniface, was fantastic—experienced, reliable, and knew the routes and parks inside out. We felt safe and well taken care of throughout.
My wife and I did a 2-day trip to Masai Mara, followed by visits to Naivasha and Nakuru, and every moment was memorable—from the game drives to the scenic lake views. The Land Cruiser was comfortable and perfect for the terrain.

Swift, responsive, and hassle free
We did a half day Soweto tour with Nomonde and we had a great experience. It was totally eye-opening to see how the daily lives are in Soweto, with all the historical background about the area and the people. Cheers and thanks for taking care of us, Nomonde!

Helpful
Communication was fine, I got always a quick response for all of my questions.
The tour itself was incredible, I saw the big five. There was no crowd at begging of June. Every activities was very good, walking or cycling safari, visiting maasai village. Was nice to see the people there that they appreciate everything they have
Fantastic Service & A great Trip!
Jangwa was fantastic in designing the itinerary for our two-week self-drive safari. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and nothing was ever too much trouble — even when our table broke and we had a flat tyre, they promptly sorted it all out for us with a replacement table and tyre change.
The app they provided was also excellent, giving us a day-by-day breakdown of our trip along with some great insider tips!

A dream honeymoon, a dream trip - book with Buyaga and go to Uganda!
Where do I start with how wonderful Buyaga Safaris is...and Uganda as a country!
After reading all the excellent reviews on here, and Google, I decided to contact Peter at Buyaga to get a quote for our honeymoon as I was especially keen to support a Ugandan led and based company, and I'm so glad I did. Peter was so responsive from the off, understanding our brief, sharing an incredible itinerary and at a remarkably reasonable price, and swiftly replying to all queries before departure. Including a panicked call from us 3 hours before we were due to leave for the airport having discovered we'd not secured the necessary visa - which, as he was in country, was able to help us with at speed and ultimately saved our whole honeymoon! (Thanks again, Peter!!)
The trip itself was beyond all our wildest dreams. We were made to feel like VIP's from the moment we arrived thanks to our excellent guide, Simpson who was just superb in every way. Funny, interesting, patient, an excellent driver, and a general dream to travel with for two weeks.
The accommodation we stayed at was superb. Delicious food, very warm, welcoming staff (that's Uganda for you!) and mind blowing views every where we went. The river Nile, rain forests, savannah national parks, lakes - each hotel had something new to offer so it became impossible to compare them as they were all so superb.
The trips were phenomenal too. Safari breakfasts and dinners on the shores of Lake Albert, chimp treks, gorilla treks, Golden Monkey treks, swamp treks, nature walks up close with the giraffes of Mburo national park, swimming in Lake Bunyonyi, and more. Every day just felt like a new dream was being realised.
We couldn't have imagined anything better for our Honeymoon. Buyaga sorted us out perfectly, and Uganda is a country that has it all - safari, rainforest, primates and apes, lakes, delicious food, wonderfully warm people and so much more.
Book with Buyaga, you won't be disappointed.
