A wonderful experience with new friends
As a solo traveler the 5 travel companions quickly became friends where we all set up a WhatsApp where we could share pictures and stay in communication while on the trip and after we returned. Touchdown has set us up in wonderful animal reserves where we felt close and safe to the animals. We had a morning and evening animal drive with knowledge game rangers. Food was good. The evening sundowners were special. Happy Hour at sundown. Just don't have red wine as our was served at room temperature.

Unforgettable First Africa Experience with Big Apes and Our Exceptional Guide Jackson
My wife and I recently completed our very first African adventure, and we chose Big Apes to plan our journey a decision we’re truly grateful for. We booked the tour about two months in advance, and throughout the entire process, the team at Big Apes was supportive, responsive, and thoroughly professional.
What truly elevated our experience, however, was our guide, Jackson. We can’t thank Big Apes enough for assigning him to us. Jackson became the face of our first African experience someone we’ll always remember when we talk about our trip. His dedication to making us feel comfortable was evident in every detail. He consistently went the extra mile to ensure we had the best possible experience.
Jackson was always punctual, ensuring we arrived early for all activities and avoided long queues. He stayed connected with fellow guides for real-time updates on animal sightings in the parks and worked closely with hotel staff to ensure our accommodations and meals were well taken care of. With a degree in tourism and hospitality, his knowledge of local culture, cuisine, wildlife, and birdlife was impressive. He shared insights without ever being intrusive, striking the perfect balance between informative and relaxed guiding.
We thoroughly enjoyed his company and would wholeheartedly recommend him as a guide for anyone visiting Uganda. We would definitely request him again for our next trip.
While the overall experience was exceptional, we did feel that the vehicle provided was quite old and lacked a functioning air conditioner, which was a bit of a letdown. However, aside from that, everything else was handled excellently, and we truly appreciate the effort Big Apes put into making our trip so memorable.

Attentive
I had an excellent experience working with Trav-Interactive. They promptly provided me a quote and followed up with airplane, lodging, and park permit reservations. They periodically checked in to make sure everything was operating smoothly. Overall it was a seamless experience.

Fantastic!
What a fabulous experience! Our tour guide, Spencer, was friendly and so knowledgeable. He knew so much about animal behavior that enabled him to not only tell us about an animal, but also its intentions. He worked with a network of other guides to go to hard to find animals like leopards and lions. We saw so many animals every day: zebras, giraffes, hippos, lions, leopards, impalas, elephants, wildebeests, all kinds of birds, and many more. We camped in three sites, two nights at each site. The crew set up our roomy tents that included a queen size bed, off the floor, two night stands, and an enclosed pit toilet and shower attached at the back. We had great meals: breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch, mid-afternoon snack and dinner. We had eight in our party and were accompanied by a crew of seven. The crew could not have been more friendly, helpful and skilled. The trucks we rode in were perfect for animal viewing and sun protection.

I really appreciate their honesty and punctuality
I planned this trip for my 40th birthday, and the Migration Venture Africa team, along with our driver Devin, made it truly special. Devin was kind, helpful with everything, and most importantly, respectful of the schedule and an excellent driver! The Big Five game drive was so much fun. I highly recommend this experience for anyone looking for a great budget-friendly trip!

Choosing Meru Slopes was our best decision!
We are so glad that we chose Meru Slopes! Meru Slopes provided a safari experience that managed to exceed our already high expectations. Gift T. communicated swiftly and clearly during our planning. He helped us customize the perfect 8 day safari experience. Our driver and guide Florian was friendly, experienced, very professional, and responsible for providing us with an even better experience than we could have imagined. He knew every animal and could spot them with surprising speed. We noticed many other safari companies struggling with inexperienced or poorly maintained vehicles. Our vehicle was very well maintained and our driver gave us the highest confidence. We also did a Materuni Falls day trip, prior to our safari. In that case, our driver and guide was Herman. As with the other Meru Slopes team members, he was knowledgeable, friendly, and the best guide and new friend. I highly recommend Meru Slopes tours and safaris. Their prices were very fair, their lodges and hotels were spectacular, and their guides were the utmost professionals.

This safari exceeded my expectations in every way possible - guide, accommodations, food, animals
This was my first trip to Africa. Our amazing safari included 4 parks - each one unique but all beautiful with LOTS of animal sightings. Our driver/guide Rick was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, wonderful to travel with. I will ask for him if I ever get back, and I've already recommended him to friends.
I feel I got more than "bang for the buck" that the trip cost.
Honestly I wouldn't change a thing.
