A travel company that is professional, reliable and friendly towards its customers.
This year marked our second trip with Paramount Gorilla Expedition. Keneth accompanied us through Uganda in 2023, and in November 2025, we had the pleasure of exploring beautiful Tanzania with him.
From our initial contact and the entire booking process to the trip itself, we received professional, personalized, and very friendly service at all times. All our questions were answered promptly and thoroughly.
The customized itinerary offered a perfect blend of culture, landscapes, people, and impressive wildlife. The lodges were exactly to our liking.
Keneth (guide) and Regan (driver) captivated us with their extensive knowledge of animals and cultures. We would especially like to commend Keneth's excellent German, English, and Spanish language skills, as well as his clear translations of local guides.
We felt exceptionally well cared for and safe throughout the entire trip – saying goodbye was, once again, difficult.
Thank you for this unforgettable experience. We sincerely hope to travel with you again!

Mile Always had us smiling and laughing! So much fun!
Traveling with Mike was a blast! He is funny and kind, and always made sure we had everything we needed. The depth of his expertise became apparent as we climbed Kilimanjaro… he really knows the area and what it takes to lead a successful expedition. I thought the value was amazing and I would hire Mike again in an instant! Thanks again Mike! 10/10 trip!!

Excellent 6-day tour in Rwanda and Uganda with my guideSmith
I just finished my 6-day tour in Rwanda and Uganda booked with Lulu Safaris. My guide was Smith and he was just the best, nothing was too much trouble.
Smith picked me up from Kigali and in 6 days we went to Nyungwe for canopy walking and ziplining. After this we continued to Volcanoes where I did hike to Dian Fossey's grave, then to Bwindi to see gorillas. After this to Queen Elizabeth, where I even saw lions! I did a chim trekking and Lake Bunyonyi.
Accommodations were high quality and food really good and I had no problem to find vegetarian options.
My tour was just absolutely amazing thanks to Smith and Lulu Safaris.
As a female solo traveller I encourage everybody to go explore this beautiful countries.

Total satisfaction
Richard, our guide made the safari memorable. His knowledge of the flora and fauna hugely contributed to enlighten our experience. He knows the expanse of the parks like the back of his hand to take us right spots to watch lions, elephants, hippos, crocs, rhinos and a variety of wildlife. We thank Richard for making the safari a marvellous event

Unforgettable adventure with a smooth process
We booked a 4-day safari with Serengetiö Wakanda Tours & Safari, visiting:
2 days in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park.
Our safari was perfectly organized from start to finish.
Our guide Zephania was fantastic – very friendly, calm, extremely knowledgeable, and always focused on showing us the most beautiful landscapes and as many animals as possible. He did everything he could to make it possible for us to spot the Big Five – and he succeeded. In addition to numerous zebras, antelopes, giraffes, etc., we also saw a rare porcupine and a serval cat. The spots he chose for lunch were all beautiful. Outside the parks, we learned a lot from him about the country, the people, and local traditions. His driving was always safe, and overall he catered to all our wishes. Absolutely recommended!
The Serengeti Lodge was a real highlight: spacious, beautiful tented lodge, authentic safari feeling, and very close to nature. The staff were very friendly, and the food was delicious and varied.
We also really liked the second lodge with its view of Lake Manyara, especially at sunrise. The dinner was excellently presented and tasted fantastic.
A big thank you as well to Norina for the excellent support and transparent communication before and during the trip. We always felt well taken care of.
Overall, it was an unforgettable trip that we can fully recommend!

A safari experience that was organized, safe, family-friendly, and unforgettable.
I recently did a 4-day, 3-night safari with Engozi Safaris Uganda and it was truly one of the best trips I have ever taken. From the very beginning, their communication and professionalism stood out. They were extremely responsive on WhatsApp, answered every question clearly, and sent us a complete itinerary ahead of time. Each day, they updated us with timing, expectations, safety guidance, and if anything changed they always checked in to make sure we were comfortable with the adjustment.
Klaus and Jesse were friendly, patient, and attentive throughout the entire experience. They made sure we had water and drinks, help with our bags, and they chose great local food stops along the way. They interacted so well with my daughter and every activity allowed her to participate. I never felt like she was left out and that meant so much to me.
The trip itself was full in the best possible way. We did so much in those four days and still felt like there is so much more to see on a future visit. The lodges felt fairly priced for the experience. Rwakobo Rock had beautiful views and wonderful staff, and Buffalo Safari Lodge quickly became my favorite with spacious rooms and great wildlife sightings. We always felt safe. As long as we followed instructions around the animals, we were completely at ease. The vehicle was comfortable and well maintained and it was cleaned every night, so each morning felt like stepping into a new truck.
My favorite moment was the walking tour with the giraffes. I had never been that close to them before and watching my daughter experience it made the moment even more special. The evening and early morning game drives were incredible and I recommend adding a visit to the CTC Conservation Centre for a unique look at some of the animals and a chance to learn more about them.
Engozi Safaris Uganda delivered exceptional service, reliability, value for money, and an experience I will never forget. I would absolutely book with Klaus and Jesse again and next time I plan to add more days, so we can explore even more of Uganda. If you are looking for something different from the typical safari destinations, choose Uganda and reach out to Engozi Safaris. You will not be disappointed!

Great places, great people, wonderful time
We chose a 12 day tour of Zimbabwe and Botswana which proved to be an excellent option; although some parts of the drive journey were quite long, we had a very friendly and inspiring guide and a very good storyteller too, Simon, who knew how to capture our attention and tell us about African places and traditions. The safaris were excellent and I mention here Bhecki (the guide in Hwange) and Africa (the guide in Victoria Falls) who made it possible for us to see The Big Fives in the first two days :))
The accommodations were excellent, the places varied, the price-quality ratio very good, everything was organized down to the smallest detail and the people responded promptly to all our needs and questions.
So Thank you Cuckoo Safari, Thank you Simon for a memorable vacation and certainly if I were to go back there I would make the same choice!!!

Perfect safari experience with our amazing guide Azaria!
You know when you first meet someone and you instantly know you're in good hands? Thats how we felt from our first moments with Azaria - kind, warm, flexible and professional from start to end.
He began by carefully and thoughtfully checking alignment of his proposed scheduled with our itinerary, catching and immediately rectifying a discrepancy between his provided notes on our departure flight time and our actual departure flight time. From that moment on, for 5 days straight, he cheerfully toured us from park to park, telling us about Tanzania's culture and history, informing us of the names and significance of local villages we were passing, enthusiastically calling out animal after animal (with mad sharp eyesight and comprehensive knowledge of everything), skilfully navigating us to rare sightings (multiple cheetahs and leopards) with a combination of intuition and communication with other safari guides in the field, hustling through the inevitable safari related wear and tear of flat or damaged tyres, graciously accepting of us being a little late some mornings after breakfast, swiftly handling the paperwork and inspection processes for entering in and out of parks and always making sure we were safe and sound in our next lodge at the end of the day.
The jeep itself was perfect - well maintained, stocked with more drinking water than you'd ever need, packed lunches (sometimes cooked, sometimes sandwiches) every day with wine (!!) for lunch, two binoculars for us, and as already stated, always swiftly repaired when running into issues.
And with that jeep, and our amazing guide Azaria, we saw lions, cheetahs, leopards, gazelle Thomson, wildebeast, zebras, giraffes, elephants, hippos, crocs, Dik-diks (so adorable!), vultures, eagles, hyenas, adorable giant rodents and so much more! Highlights include a whole pride of lionesses up a tree, with the cubs stuck at the bottom and daddy lion patrolling around all the on-looking jeeps, another lion chilling at the top of a caved over tree, a lion literally sitting atop a huge rock in the middle of plains of nothingness (a la pride rock from the Lion king!), a trio of cheetahs playfully rolling in the grasp, hyenas totally disdainful of us trying to get their attention at just two meters range, a leopard snoozing up an isolated tree with a half eaten gazelle in reserve impaled on a branch in the tree, the endless cute hilarities of the warthogs who can't decide wether to be your friends or terrified of you, 8 giraffes having a tense standoff with 2 lionnesses chilling in some shade in some midday sun (they literally couldn't care less about the giraffes) as they tried to muster the courage to pass nearby, when they had all the room in the world to take a wide berth, the majestic wisdom of elephants in general, and 50 hippos all in a huge clump in a small pond could hardly be forgotten...
The lodges we stayed in were fantastic as well - ranging from the stunning Best View lodge (Lake Manyara), an exciting lux tent in the Serengeti (Nyikani camp) sleeping amidst the animals (which was quite honestly terrifying the first night when we thought what was in hindsight wind rhythmically flapping the tent to be an animal motorway crossing out tent at night), to even more on the ground camping at Pakulala with stunning views over the (Ngorongoro) crater and a camp staff member powering our hot water bush showers. Food was always good, with 3-4 course evening meals at every accommodation.
Finally, kudos to our tour planner Manuel as well, who made the creating of our customised tour effortless as well - always quick to respond, totally flexible, always grasping our needs instantly, and never giving even a hint of trying to hard sell anything - always from a place of genuine enthusiasm of improving of adjusting one's experience, if and only if requested.
Soul of Tanzania says it prides itself on creating a tailor made experience with warmth and connection and top notch service for every customer, and that is exactly what we got through every stage of the process. Absolutely nothing in the experience that I could dock points for - this is exactly what they delivered from start to end!
10/10, would go in a heartbeat again - thank you for the unforgettable experience Soul of Tanzania! :)
