Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Ina Lokhorst
Lake Manyara is a beautiful wildlife park, but we didn’t see that much animals. We saw many elephants so that was nice!

Great advice
Mardi did a great job listening to our expectations and setting up a trip that exceeded it. We feel great about this experience with Viatu.

Well organized with customer satisfaction
Booked a budget tour for 3D/2N stay in Masai Mara National Reserve. Communication with Tabitha was easy with fast response. The tour itself was wonderful and exciting with Dennis as the driver/tour guide. Stay at Sankara Camp was an experience with a good night sleep especially without electricity from 2200 to 0500. But it was enjoyable. Tour with Axis Africa fully recommended.

Professional guide & perfect plan
This tour was perfect from start to finish. Each day's game drive was different and full of new experiences. We saw the Big Five multiple times in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and the guide was always ready to take us to the right place at the right time.
In the middle of the tour, we visited a Maasai village, where we were truly moved by their culture, dance and way of life. They welcomed us with great hospitality. I feel truly blessed to have been on a safari with such an organized and caring company like Northern Masailand Safaris.

Safari of a lifetime with the best guide, Deo!
We just returned from the most unforgettable safari in Tanzania, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Deo. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in the best hands.
Deo is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania but he’s also one of the most genuine, kind-hearted people we’ve ever met. Every day he showed up perfectly prepared ready to give us the experience of a lifetime.
We saw everything we could’ve hoped for, lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos, giraffes, and more, and we know that much of that was thanks to Deo’s sharp eye and deep understanding of animal behaviour. He was patient, thoughtful, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe.
What started as a guided trip quickly turned into a friendship we’ll carry with us for life. Deo, you made this journey more meaningful than we could’ve imagined. Thank you for sharing your country, your knowledge, and your heart with us.
Asante sana!

cost-effective
Advantages: The staff have a great attitude, the prices are reasonable, the itinerary is quite rich, and the drivers are quite capable of spotting animals.
Disadvantages: Since it's a group tour, there are always 5 - 7 tourists on the bus, and they have different accommodation arrangements. The travel agency is the same as Super Eagle, but using different company names during hotel check - in can sometimes be confusing.
Overall, it's a really good trip. However, as the time goes by, I felt a bit tired in the later days, and I'm not quite used to the food in the hotel. The lions in Maasai Mara, the elephant herds at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, and the brilliant starry sky are all amazing. It's a pity that I didn't get a clear view of the leopard hiding in the bushes. I was a bit disappointed that there aren't many other special animals in Amboseli except the elephant herds.

Hermosa Life Tours is professional, responsive, and made our gorilla trek smooth and unforgettable.
Gorilla Trekking – Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda
We took a one-day Gorilla trekking tour in Rwanda from Kigali, including same-day airport drop-off, through Hermosa Life Travel and Tours. We had a great experience planning the tour—they were responsive, flexible, and very helpful in accommodating our requests and answering all our questions.
Aboubakar was our guide, and he did a fantastic job from the moment he picked us up at our hotel in Kigali to when he dropped us off at the airport for our next adventure. He arrived promptly at 4:30 AM and drove us about 2.5 to 3 hours through Rwanda’s beautiful, hilly countryside to Volcanoes National Park. The scenery along the way was stunning, with endless green hills as far as the eye could see.
Aboubakar was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour extra special. He handled all the paperwork and check-in at the park efficiently, which made everything smooth for us. After the morning briefing at the park center, he drove us another 45 minutes along bumpy African roads to the trekking start point, sharing funny stories and past gorilla trekking experiences along the way.
Our trekking group consisted of six tourists, including the two of us. The hike took a little over two hours as we ascended to higher altitudes through bamboo forests and muddy terrain, accompanied by trekkers, porters, and a park ranger. We eventually reached the Isimbi gorilla family, a group of 19 mountain gorillas, and spent an incredible hour with them. The scenery throughout the trek was breathtaking, and the time we spent observing the gorillas up close just a few feet away was truly remarkable. We quietly watched them in their natural habitat, an experience we will never forget. The entire trek, including the hour spent with the gorillas, lasted around five hours.
After the trek, we returned to our vehicle with very muddy shoes, even though we had worn gaiters. Aboubakar had helped us get the gaiters before the trek and went the extra mile to fulfill our request by finding a place along the way where we could clean up and freshen up before heading to the airport. He was incredibly helpful and truly made our day extra special.
Highly recommend Hermosa Life Tours for a professional, friendly, and unforgettable Rwanda trip.
