The best
After having a few problems with my connecting flight my expectations were not too high
After meeting my guide Mohammed my mood started to get better
Axis is very professional and has even better employees
I don’t usually recommend anyone or anything but I would recommend axis and of course my Gide Mohammed, who I kindly renamed “PAPI CHULO “
After experiencing the excellent service he provided I’ve raised my expectations a lot higher than I had before
Way to go Mohammed “papi chulo “
This world needs more people like you

Bujuku Eco Tours is a reliable and caring tour operator.
We had an amazing experience with Bujuku Eco Tours during our trip to Uganda. They helped us plan the entire itinerary so that everything made sense and worked smoothly. We started with chimpanzee tracking in Kibale, followed by the Rwenzori trek and the climb of Margherita Peak, then Queen Elizabeth National Park, gorilla trekking in Bwindi and finally Lake Bunyonyi.
A special thank you to our driver/guide, Johnson, who went far beyond what we expected. He was always helpful, flexible and genuinely caring throughout the whole journey.
Our Rwenzori guides, Harrison and Jethro, were excellent. Together with our chef and the porters, they made a challenging trek and climb to Margherita Peak a safe, enjoyable and truly memorable experience. The whole team consistently went above and beyond what we expected.
We are very grateful to the entire Bujuku Eco Tours team for an unforgettable trip. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Uganda!

An unforgettable 20-days Madagascar adventure with truly outstanding guides.
Madagascar Natural Tours is an agency I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants a personal, well-organized and unforgettable experience in Madagascar.
From the very beginning until the end of our journey, we felt well taken care of. Communication before the trip was clear, we received the itinerary in advance, and it was possible to adjust the program according to our wishes. Whenever there was any small imperfection, the team always tried to solve it immediately, which we really appreciated. Harilala also customized the itinerary perfectly around our international flights, which made the whole journey much smoother and stress-free.
We had a 20-day itinerary ending on Île aux Nattes, and it was truly amazing. Madagascar is a very special country, and thanks to Madagascar Natural Tours we were able to see so many beautiful places in a comfortable and efficient way. Harilala arranged the domestic flights, transfers, accommodation and activities very well, which allowed us to experience a lot without feeling that the trip was too complicated.
This journey was also personally very important for us, because I used this trip to propose to my girlfriend. Together with Harilala, we discussed the place and timing in advance, and the rest I arranged once we were there. It made the whole experience even more unforgettable.
I would especially like to thank and highlight our guides, Elias and Hoby. They were absolutely outstanding — professional, kind, friendly and genuinely good people. They made the trip even more special, and if we ever return to Madagascar, I would specifically ask for them again. In my opinion, they are among the very best in their field.
The accommodation throughout the trip was of good quality, and the itinerary offered a great balance of wildlife, landscapes, adventure and relaxation. The only small point I would mention is that some of the vehicles, especially the vans we used at times, were not the most comfortable for Madagascar’s roads. On these rough roads, I would have appreciated using a off-road 4x4 vehicle more often, like the one we had on the way to Tsingy.
Overall, we look back on this journey as one of the best holidays of our lives. Madagascar Natural Tours gave us an individual, beautifully organized and memorable experience, and I would recommend them with a clear conscience to anyone planning a trip to Madagascar.
10/10 — thank you for an unforgettable adventure.

breathtaking experience
Our safari guide Geofrey has great spotting skills. I can see all the big five in Tanzania, and also the river crossing. This wildlife safari gave me an unforgettable experience.

Incredibly nice experience
I enjoyed the game driving very much. I could watch so many kind of wild animals thanks to the guide. If I have chance to come to Tanzania again, I will use this tour again.

Great Experience with Best Time Adventures
The 4 day safari was a fantastic trip. The Serengeti was standout, however visiting Ngorongoro and Tarangire were also well worth it. Jackline was a real pleasure to deal with, always giving prompt and useful communication. The team were flexible to requests and were genuinely interested in making the experience the best they could for us.

Above expectations professionalism
We partnered with Soul of Madagascar for 22 days of adventure across the country with our family of four. A contact who had previously travelled with them and had a great experience recommended them to us, and we are incredibly grateful that he did.
Despite the challenges involved in coordinating and managing the logistics—especially because we wanted to visit non-touristic locations, or at least places that were less crowded—everything went incredibly smoothly. The whole team went above and beyond to support our needs and accommodate our wishes, helping us create a truly remarkable trip full of experiences and memories that will stay with us forever.
From the initial months of planning, defining the itinerary, and discussing our preferences and their recommendations, or dealing with flight changes till right through to the very last minute and our farewell at the airport, they were always there for us.
Theresia, Joushia, and the rest of the guides and drivers are amazing professionals, with a wealth of experience in the national parks, wildlife, food, routes, and local destinations. Most importantly, they always put our safety and wellbeing first, which gave us complete peace of mind throughout the trip.
We were particularly touched by some of the gestures that went far beyond what we expected. Theresia, the manager, once flew to the airport during a connecting flight from her hometown just to say hello and give us some presents. What an incredible gesture! And then there was the evening when Joushia and his colleague brought their guitars and improvised a concert while our teenage daughters sang along around a campfire, under an amazing sky full of stars. Those moments, among dozens of others, will stay with us forever.
I cannot recommend Soul of Madagascar highly enough. Thank you so much to the entire team for everything you did for us and for helping make this journey such an unforgettable experience.

Everything was perfectly planned, from the airport pick-up to the final drop-off. The itinerary was well-balanced, the staff was exceptionally professional, and every detail was taken care of. A truly 5-star experience that we would repeat in a heartbeat!

Trustworthy, Accommodating and a Pleasure To Work With When Planning Our Dream Safari Trip
Everyone involved in our Safari trip were great to work with and extremely helpful. Mr. Juma, who owns the company made sure we had one of the best and most experienced guides and also allowed our tour coordinator Noah to put a personal touch on our trip. Mr. Noah was extremely helpful in putting together a customized Safari package that maximized the time we wanted to spend at various camps in Tanzania, Mr. Gido, our tour guide with over 25 years of experience not only put us up close to some amazing animal encounters but also kept us safe while driving around this wild and sometime unforgiving landscape. Everyone involved including the personnel at the various camps we stayed at were very friendly and accommodating. We had a Great 8 days personalized Safari trip and we left with a bag full of incredible memories and awesome stories to tell. HIGHLY recommend you contact Mamnana Adventures if you are contemplating a trip to Northern Tanzania.

Highly recommended
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience. From the very first contact, Vincent was incredibly responsive and available to answer all my questions. Throughout the entire trip, he was attentive to every little detail and truly made me feel like a princess!
The safari itself was absolutely amazing and exceeded all my expectations. I visited Tarangire National Park on the first day, where we saw incredible wildlife, followed by the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater on the second day — simply breathtaking and definitely one of the highlights of my trip.
The hotel that Vincent also chose for me an amazing hotel for me is one of the best lodges in the area, if it’s not the best.He had carefully selected it to make the experience even more special.
And the experience didn’t stop there! On the third day, before heading to the airport, we had a visit to a coffee plantation, which was the perfect cherry on top of an already incredible safari.
But what truly made the difference was Vincent himself. He is an excellent guide and, above all, a genuinely wonderful person. He really cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. He is knowledgeable, professional, kind and incredibly attentive.
And I can honestly say this after speaking with many other travellers during my trip: guides like Vincent are rare. His level of care and dedication really stands out.
I would recommend Vincent with my eyes closed. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, don’t hesitate — you will be in excellent hands! ️
Thank you, Vincent, for an unforgettable experience!
