Superb
I booked a 4-day tour in the tent village at quite short notice. MoAfrika were a model of helpful communication, giving me information about my alternative options and going out of their way to meet my dates and requests. I was expecting fairly basic accommodation but the tents are huge, with en suite facilities and incredibly comfortable beds! It was cold at night but in the bed, covered by duvet and blankets, I was toasty warm. Noxy our host was super friendly and helpful. The game drives themselves were extraordinary: the experience of a lifetime. In my eight drives in all I saw elephant, lion, rhino, giraffe, hippo, cheetah, baboon, kudu, hyena, warthog, water buck, wildebeest, impala and lots of birds. (And rabbits). All the guides are incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and their behaviours, and their ability to spot and track the wildlife made the drives infinitely more rewarding than they would have been if I had hired a car and tried to do it myself. (And the safari vehicles are so much higher than a car, greatly improving visibility.) The scenery on its own, particularly at sunrise and sunset, is spectacular. I cannot recommend MoAfrika’s tours too highly. (And they’re not even paying me to say this!)

Amazing Safari!
My safari experience was truly amazing!
Shoutouts to the exceptional team who made it unforgettable:
- John, for arranging transport with the outstanding driver Kamidi, who went above and beyond – driving me to a local dinner spot on my last day and even helping me order!
- Our incredibly patient and knowledgeable guide Melita, who helped us spot every animal – the elusive rhino included!
- And Jeremiah, our talented cook, who served up fresh and delicious meals throughout.
I'm forever grateful and will definitely recommend!

Attention to the smallest detail! Fulfilled a lifetime dream. The best tour company in Uganda!
We began planning this 3 week adventure almost a year prior to arriving. Bob, the owner was a class act. After inquiring from 6 to 7 different tour companies, Bob responded with a professional. Proposal with details on every day’s activities and each day accommodations. His presentation was so complete we decided we had to inquire further from shuttle hospitality. During every stage of our planning, Bob was supportive and responsive almost immediately to every inquiry we had. He took the stress out of What could otherwise have been a bit overwhelming.
After all our questions had been resolved, and a long trip from the US we arrived in Kampala Uganda with the VIP treatment. We were greeted at the plane, not in arrivals, by a representative who quickly who whisked us through the formalities and helped with our massive amount of luggage. Bob and his guides Francis and Herbert are outside waiting for us. Their vehicle was clean and had plenty of space for my wife and I and our luggage.
Francis, our primary guide was extremely knowledgeable and not only animals and the environment, but the history of Uganda and its tribes. Every detail was addressed from morning until night. We enjoyed our days, whether traveling to a new location or upon arrival and learned so much. Francis insured fluid fulfillment of the proposal Bob sent.
We had to have been very lucky on our Safari as we saw every animal we had hoped to see up close. We saw Jacob of the three legged lion.( Google his famous story) to tree, climbing, lionesses and perhaps over 100 elephants within 20 yards of us at the closest point. Francis insured that we got the best view and pointed out animals some of which I initially couldn’t see, even after pointing them out. He helped us with our cameras and took wonderful pictures. Francis continued day after day checking on us sitting in the back of the trucks to ensure our comfort was satisfactory.. Once Francis knew that we liked french fries he went out of his way to have french fries waiting for us ( and hot I might add at many stops along the way.
The hotels selected by Bob were more than adequate. While not all of them had air conditioning those that didn’t were beautiful tented locations. The food for exceeded our expectations No where were we disappointed in the food.
Perhaps the highlight and the reason for us choosing Uganda was to see the Primates. We were so fortunate to see on our first chimpanzee trekking over 25 chimps that were on the ground running around us paying us no attention. What a thrilling site. But perhaps the highlight of our trip was to go see the Gorillaz. We were very fortunate to find a family within 20 minutes of hiking into the jungle. These gorillas put on a wonderful fascinating show with the younger Gorillas playing together and grooming the silver back. We hired a porter to carry our camera equipment who was right there every time I needed a lens change and even helped us taking GoPro footage.
We had some initial challenges with our visa, which required a change of flights from Johannesburg to Kampala, but Bob and Francis adjusted quickly and accommodated us. They made changes to hotels for us. Despite the stress of that experience, we were reassured along the way that it would be taken care of and it was.
I am not a regular user of superlatives however, my wife and I cannot recommend shuttle hospitality any higher. If you want a complete and total immersive safari experience with knowledgeable guides and attentive management, you found it here with shuttle hospitality.
We want to thank Bob, Francis and Herbert for their kindness and attention to every detail for us. They made the difference between an average and adequate safari to a truly lifetime a memorable one.

Great experience
The safari went great, all included. Communication with the driver and pick up were very good. Accommodation was very good, I slept in a shared 2 people tent the first night, and the second night I slept alone. Food included in the pack was also good, a few different options available. The guide took good care of us and was available for anything. Service and price were very good value.

What a fantastic safari outing in Tanzania with Musa
If you are able, definitely book with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures, as they truly excel in hosting safaris to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire; in fact, they are the best safari operator we have encountered during our extensive travels worldwide. We were assigned Musa to be our guide and he is the reason we had such a good time. He ensured that we met each day's expectations by sparing no effort to find the animals that we were looking for. He also drove well at all times. The accommodations were carefully selected to be within the safari circuit and they were top notch and served excellent food. The safari was absolutely fabulous.

Jackson was incredibly knowledgeable and joy to be with!
Kihindo tours deserves more than 5 stars! My wife and I took our 7-year old son and 13-year old daughter on a 2-day safari (1 day to see the animals and 1 day for a beautiful hike through the Uluguru mountains). Our experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. Everyone we met from Kihindo tours was extremely helpful and pleasant. We saw so many animals (6 lions) and loved our hike. The food was amazing everywhere, our lodging was beautiful, and service was excellent. We highly recommend Kihindo tours!

It is true to it's name, a full package adventure
An Unforgettable Journey: A 5-Star Safari Experience with our tour operator FULL PACKAGE ADVENTURE.
Our recent safari was, without a doubt, a trip of a lifetime, and it's all thanks to the incredible team who offered authentically a "FULL PACKAGE ADVENTURE" and especially our guide, Festo. From the moment we started the tour, every detail was meticulously handled, and every expectation was not just met, but exceeded. This tour deserves every one of its five stars.
The lodges were very good, especially the Tanzania Bush camp in central Serengeti and Eileen's Tree's Inn. The logistics were flawless, and the entire trip well organized, allowing us to enjoy the adventure.
I would like to highlight overall however, the experience with our guide Festo.
Festo didn't just drive us around; he is an educator, a storyteller, and a master tracker all whilst driving. He has an unbelievable ability to spot animals that we would have certainly missed, from a leopard on a tree to a lion hundreds of meters away.
Festo's keen eye and deep understanding of animal behavior led us to incredible sightings.
He was patient, answering our endless questions with a smile, and he always made sure we were in the perfect position for a photo. His
genuine love for the wildlife and dedication to our experience was evident in every single game drive.
If you're looking for an unforgettable safari adventure, I cannot recommend this tour and specifically our guide, Festo highly enough. He is a true professional and a fantastic person who will make your journey into the wild a truly magical and memorable one.
