Great adventure
We had a wonderful trip to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our guide, Thomas, knew exactly where to go to see the different animals and thanks to him we saw lots of the big five, and so many others. He also had so much knowledge about the animals and the nature! We got enough time to just observe and enjoy the moments and he was so good at positioning the car so we got a good view and good pictures. So happy that we got to spend the whole day (7am-7pm) looking for animals, with a great lunch in the middle. A great adventure with a great guide!

A seamless, joyful adventure to Bwindi with an exceptional guide
We had the most wonderful and exciting time in Bwindi with our tour guide Muhwezi Shever. He picked us up in Musanze, Rwanda, drove us across the border to Uganda and up to Ruhija in Bwindi National Park, stayed with us throughout, and brought us safely home three days later.
Shever’s knowledge of the area — from the scenic road to Ruhija to the forest of Bwindi itself — truly brought the experience to life. His passion for bird life and nature was infectious, and thanks to him we spotted and identified species we would never have noticed on our own.
But beyond his expertise, Shever was simply a joy to be with. His easy-going warmth and good humor made every moment feel relaxed and fun — he was the kind of guide who turns a journey into something you find yourself laughing about long after you’re home. He handled all arrangements effortlessly, and whenever questions or misunderstandings came up he was always on hand to put our minds at ease.
We should also mention that communication with Jason at Safari Vacations ahead of the trip was smooth and straightforward from the start, making the whole experience stress-free before we’d even left home.
We could not recommend Safari Vacations more highly, and in particular traveling with Shever. He made our time in Bwindi truly memorable.

Outstanding safari experience with an exceptional guide Edward
We had an amazing experience with RO Scavenger Safaris. Our driver and guide, Edward, was incredibly professional, responsible, and attentive throughout the trip. His ability to spot animals was truly impressive — he always seemed to know exactly where to go, and thanks to him we saw so many incredible wildlife moments. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe and well taken care of at all times. Highly recommend this company, and especially Edward, for an unforgettable safari!

Excellent help, I was nervous because I am elderly and didn’t know what to expect.
From the moment I arrived I was well taken care of and felt comfortable and safe. The company director greeting us and helped us get settled in. The whole team was very personable. It was a wonderful experience and I would do it again before I get even older.

Incredible experience
We booked a 4-day / 3-night safari from Malindi at the very last minute with a local agency, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions of our trip. Our itinerary included Tsavo East, Tsavo West, and Amboseli.
Steve took care of everything from start to finish — park entries, accommodation in full-board lodges, and organizing our driver. Everything was seamless and very well coordinated.
A special mention to our driver-guide, Solomon, who was truly outstanding. Always friendly and smiling, a very skilled driver, and incredibly patient (especially as my husband is passionate about photography!). He played a huge role in making this experience so enjoyable.
The safari itself was amazing — breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife, and unforgettable moments every day.
We would definitely recommend Steve and Richard for their professionalism, reliability, and quick responses. And a big thank you again to Solomon for making this safari so memorable!

Flawless Safari, Unmatched Guide, Beautiful Memories
Our safari experience exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, my trip with my 12 year old son was seamless, organized, and unforgettable.
Steve, our guide, made the experience very interesting. His knowledge of the land, wildlife, th food, and local culture added so much to every drive and every place we stopped. He had a good instinct for tracking the animals, we saw everything on our list and more! Steve always made sure we were in the right place at the right time, without feeling rushed or crowded by other cars. And he said yes to nearly every random request we came up with!
Steve’s professionalism definitely stood out - he had a warm, easygoing personality. He created an environment that felt safe and relaxed, which allowed us to really enjoy each day. Sometimes we left early for morning game drives, other days we visited local areas; we always were taking in the scenery and asking questions. He was very patient with my 12 year old son, which made the trip enjoyable for me too.
The itinerary itself was balanced, it included adventure with time to unwind. I added some last minute requests and they were happy to adjust things for me. Every lodge, camp and location had something unique, and the whole trip felt really well planned.
I would absolutely recommend this company—and especially this guide—to anyone considering a safari. It was not just a summer vacation, it was a memorable and meaningful experience that i got to share with my son. I know he will remember the trip forever.

Unforgettable wildlife experience with a true expert.
This was my third safari in East Africa, so I know what to look for in a guide. Katambuga Expedition exceeded my expectations. The owner, Baraka, is a local expert who knows the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater like the back of his hand. We managed to witness a river crossing in the Northern Serengeti, which was the highlight of our trip, and it was solely because Baraka made the right call to drive a bit further based on the radio chatter. The jeep was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with charging ports and cold drinks. If you want a genuine, non-mass-market safari experience where you actually learn about the ecosystem, go with Katambuga.
