The best experience in my whole life!
The time in Uganda was really amazing due to our wonderful guides Twaha and Wilson! The trip to Murchinson Falls National Park was well planned and organized. Both guides took much care of the group and provided us with lots of detailed information about the various plants and animals that we saw. We had a lot of fun with Twaha and Wilson, the best tourist guides for safaris in the world.
I can highly recommend those guys to everybody who is interested in spending an unforgettable time in Uganda - the Pearl of Africa. It was a pleasure and an honour to make their acquaintance and I thank Twaha and Wilson from the bottom of my heart for the extraordinary experience I gained due to their passionate and fantastic work!

Not the biggest but certainly one of the better safari agencies
Together with 3 Belgian friends I booked a 16 days safari with Reny Safaris. It revealed to be a very good choice: all bookings were well made; the manager regularly got in contact to find out if everything was okay; the car was very reliable (no breakdowns); and the driver was not only excellent as a driver, he also turned out to be a fantastic animal spotter!

Fantastic experience, well organised timings and excellent hospitality.
Had a great time on this safari trip with Paul my guide. Was collected from my Kampala hotel early in the morning and began the long trip heading towards the equator point and eventually Bwindi National Park, stayed at a fantastic lodge overnight and was refreshed and ready for the Gorilla tracking adventure the next morning. What a fantastic experience to see these magnificent creatures up close and in their natural habitat. This was followed by a trip to QENP where all manner of animals can be seen including three tree lions expertly spotted by Paul. Stayed over at Pumba cottages that night, stunning views across the QENP! The following morning was a thrilling but exhausting chimpanzee tracking adventure in the forest before the trip back to Entebbe as I had a flight to catch.
Overall and fantastic experience meeting some amazing people on the way who went the extra mile to make me feel welcome. Many thanks to Tony and Paul (epic driving!). Highly recommended.

Unforgettable experience, very kind driver, good value for money
I was picked up from the hotel and drove to the National Park in a minivan which needs a bit of renovation. The whole tour will last from 6:00 to 13:30.
The driver, Peter, was very kind and told me and the other two people that decided to do this safari on that day about the areas we passed through before we arrived at the Nairobi National Park.
When we entered the park, although a bit late, we drove and found two lions, one male and one female. It was a good start for the day.
He was in constant communication in Swahili with another car in order to find the location of the different kinds of game.
We found a lot of animals and 4 out of the big 5 (no leopard).
I would certainly recommend this safari operator.

Great safari
I had a great time on the safari. Home to Africa arranged a great 5-day gorilla safari tour for me. They did not just follow my own instructions on what I wanted to see but they also had some good suggestions for my time in Uganda. Together we combined it into a great tour. The accommodation during the safari was perfect and the tours that were arranged were fabulous. We were never in a hurry and even during the day I could ask about things I wanted to see or do. Also everywhere we went the people were friendly. Paul, my guide during the safari, knew a lot about Uganda, Eastern Africa, animals, culture and history. That made my experience complete!

Amazing Trip in Massai Mara!
ISIA was the perfect tour operator! We only had 4 nights to spend in Kenya and found that very few tour operators would organize a tour for a single location. ISIA was completely flexible and willing to set up 4 nights in Massai Mara. They were extremely responsive (we had a LOT of questions), competitive on pricing and willing to go the extra mile.
The airport pickup and transfer was smooth. Our personal guide, Chedi, was informative and entertaining. He was completely invested in seeing that we had the best experience possible. My wife and I saw every animal on our list.
We plan on recommending ISIA to all of our friends who are SO jealous of our trip. They went above and beyond in making sure we had the trip of a lifetime.

OK but lots of room for improvement
Value for money is only moderate. I found their tour preperation was not adequate, leading to a car break-down which cost us several hours. Not good when your time is limited. Some more time was wasted in a Police control, where it turned out that the car did not have proper insurance with some documentation missing. The driver was definitely striving to do his best, yet he was not qualified as a guide during our game drive. Fortunately and by chance we had a local helping out, otherwise we would have missed lots of interesting sights and information.

The agency was efficient and very professional
רק מילים טובות. הסוכנות היתה יעילה ומאוד מקצועית. נעזרנו בה בבניית תכנית הטיול בדרום אפריקה, כמו גם בשינויים תוך כדי תנועה. הסוכנת Cathari Johnson היתה מצויינת וקשובה לכל בקשה ועיניין. ממליץ בחום.

Good, reliable Tour Operator in Kenya
My daughter and I went on the seven days Masau Mara, Lake Nakoru Park and Amboseli safari which we had booked a few months prior to the actual safari date. Elizabeth was very prompt in responding to our emails and answered all our questions accurately every time.
Simba Trails exceeded our expectations, from the point we landed at the airport up until the point when we departed for home. Our guide was a bit of an old man but rather experienced and with a great sense of humor. His knowledge of the Parks and the animals proved invaluable during the trip and we were fortunate to catch the 'Big Five', thanks to the Rhino Sanctuary in Nakuru which is the only place where we saw rhinos.
I'd most surely would recommend Elizabeth and Simba Trails Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable tour company in Kenya.
For a diverse Africa experience the Chobe is one not to be missed
The Chobe has the ideal balance of bushland and wetland offering visitors a real treat of animals and bird life in abundance. The conservation management of the park is of the he highest standard ensuring a boy the finest of African ambience and experience
