Beautiful country with diverse wildlife and friendly people.
The most outstanding aspect of the wildlife in Uganda is the primate tracking. We have three wonderful experiences with chimps, gorillas and golden monkeys. The weather was good in July and the scenery incredible. We travelled with Kajie Safaris and our itinerary and driver were very thorough. It was great to have a driver who was prepared to advocate for our membership of particular tracking experiences (e.g., he recommended chimp tracking in the afternoon, which was the right decision - just the two of us and the chimps were down from the trees). The accommodation was generally very impressive with the exception of Entebbe (Hotel Horizon - they forgot to pick us up from the airport and eventually sent a taxi but we have to walk outside of the airport to get into it and our room had so many problems that they moved us - eventually. For our visit to Bwindi we stayed at Kaara Lodge - we would never stay there again. The bar staff overcharged us by an exorbitant amount and refused to discuss or acknowledge their error. The terrain around the lodge is challenging and not all guests might be capable of navigating it - especially in the rain or darkness (both of which we had at once). We would absolutely recommend Uganda as a tourism destination for its diversity of scenery and wildlife, friendly and accommodating people and spectacular birdwatching opportunities in both forests and on waterways.
African Big Cats Excellent Safari
African Big Cats Safaris provided a great experience from answering questions before the trip to every part of the safari itself. The itinerary was excellent. We saw all of the animals possible including 5 Mara River crossings. Omega Victor our guide was very helpful, knowledgeable, spotted animals we did not see ourselves. He was an excellent guide. The accommodations were excellent with very friendly staff. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

Great safari experience
We had an amazing time at Samburu. Our driver John was kind and very helpful in providing information about region and animals. He made it possible for us to see every animal we wanted to see.
Definitely recommend for an unforgettable experience.

White horse safari provided a fun experience with great planning, organization and friendly service
White Horse Safaris made our trip to Africa such a great experience! The communication was good, and everyone was friendly and helpful. The safari was well organized, and we felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the trip. Seeing the wildlife and enjoying the safari was definitely one of the best parts. It was a great experience and was so much fun. I would definitely recommend White Horse Safaris to anyone planning a safari!

Promt response, very honest and made the perfect experience for my family
I was traveling with a toddler and a teenager, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From payment options to hotel discussions, everything was great. We even had some last-minute changes that they accommodated, which I have to say, hats off to them for that!
Our guide was more passionate about showing us the wildlife than we were, and he made sure the toddler was comfortable.
The bookings and hotels were our choice, and the price fit our budget, so hats off to Tembea. They're small and local, but they're the best, and I'd recommend everyone support local businesses rather than big tour operators who don't offer personal care.

Unforgettable Addis Ababa City Tour with Ashu & Rocky! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had an incredible experience exploring Addis Ababa with tour guide Ashu and driver Rocky! They took such great care of me throughout the entire day. Ashu has an incredible, deep knowledge of Ethiopian history, which made our visits to the National Museum of Ethiopia and the city's wonderful attractions so engaging. Rocky was a fantastic driver who made navigating the city smooth and comfortable.
We also stopped for some delicious local Ethiopian coffee, which was an amazing highlight! I absolutely loved every minute of this tour and appreciate everything they did for me.
If you are visiting Addis Ababa, I highly recommend booking with tour guide Ashu and driver Rocky - you will definitely not regret it! Thank you both for an unforgettable trip!
