Small company that sweats the small details
African Wildcats is a small company but they make a huge effort. The vehicles were comfortable, the guides were knowledgeable and eager to answer questions, and the accommodations that were arranged as part of our safari were first rate. All in all, our group couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I think I can safely say that everyone’s expectations were exceeded - even blown away!
Fantastic Experience
Our time in Uganda was made truly unforgettable thanks to our guide, Francis from Nature Connect Safaris. From the moment we met him, his warm personality, professionalism, and genuine passion for his country made us feel welcome.
Francis, who became Franky to us Australians, has an incredible knowledge of Uganda’s wildlife, birds, landscapes, and culture, and he was always happy to share interesting facts and answer our many questions. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience, whether it was finding incredible wildlife, suggesting the best places for photos, or making sure every part of our journey ran smoothly.
What impressed us most was Francis’s patience, kindness, and attention to detail. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he always made us feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after. His enthusiasm for showcasing the beauty of Uganda was infectious and made every day an adventure.
We would highly recommend Francis and Nature Connect Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Uganda. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring guide who will make your holiday truly special, Francis is the person to ask for. Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime.

Can’t be better !
We obviously chose Smiles based on testimonials from those who had already had this experience, and I can say those accounts were actually understated. Albert and Emiliana’s company delivers a product of exceptional quality, making for an unforgettable experience. A key factor in making this possible—beyond Smiles' professionalism and infrastructure—was our guide/driver, Stanley. He possesses extensive knowledge of the Serengeti, backed by 12 years of experience. Punctual, available, and well-informed, with an incredible eye for spotting the park's wildlife, having him with us for four days was a pleasure.

Fantastic driving tour of 3 countries in Southern Africa
Africa Zim was our first experience traveling to Africa. I cannot really express how perfect this trip was. Our driver and guide Ronald was exceptional and beyond helpful. He was knowledgable, funny, caring and everywhere we went people new him.
Communications were ideal in that AfricaZim got back to us immediately and the pricing was very reasonable. We started our safari travels in Windhoek,Namibia where Ronald met us at the airport. We took off and drove through Namibia and the Namib desert which was gorgeous.Then up the lower Skeleton coast to see the Cape fur seals. Our hotels were incredibly upscale, comfortable and our guide made as many stops as we needed along the way. The people at hotels and outings were incredibly happy, friendly and interested in our welfare. We continued on to Botswana and Etosha National Park, Moremi Game Reserve and to Chobe National Park. The safaris were excellent and we saw Zebras, elephants, lions (male and female), cheetah, giraffes and hippos, Kudu, Springbok, warthogs, ostrich, etc.. Africa Zim scheduled evening sunset cruises for us and these were spectacular. Another great suggested stop was the Okavango River and delta. Our outing in dug-out canoes on the Okavango delta was exciting as we were near hippos in the water and we had a great hike on one of the many islands in the delta. We continued to Zimbabwe and Victory Falls. Everything they planned for us was accomplished. Every time I emailed before the trip with questions they responded quickly. My husband and I are planning another trip to Tanzania and we will definitely use Africa Zim. Our first experience in Africa was perfect because of their planning.

Amazing
Our Kenya safari was absolutely fantastic! Everything was perfectly organized by the tour operator and ran seamlessly. A huge shoutout to Peter Kudoni—hands down the best guide we’ve ever had! Thanks to him, we had incredible wildlife sightings, including the complete Big Five. Truly an unforgettable journey!

An Outstanding Safari with Exceptional Service and Expert Guides
Thanks to our guide’s excellent tracking skills, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, as well as rare animals such as black rhinos, African wild dogs, and cheetahs.

Good
Communication great, logistic arrangements, safari, guide all good
Only thing we disliked is the picnic lunch that felt like home cooked meal( for both days). Felt quite unprofessional when compared to other operators who provided proper individual meal boxes with lunch, snack, drink and fruit.

Professional, helpful, well organized
We booked a 4-day trekking trip through the Usambara Mountains, and it turned out to be the absolute highlight of our entire Tanzania vacation.
Sarah went above and beyond to accommodate our wishes and adjust the schedule to fit what we wanted to see and do.

Excellent service and guides
Aquí tienes la reseña con una mención especial al guía Pasco:
We had a wonderful safari experience with Enjoy Rejoice Adventures. The highlight of the trip was seeing the Big Five, along with many other amazing animals. The parks, wildlife, and overall experience exceeded our expectations and created memories that will last a lifetime.
A special thanks goes to our guide, Pasco, who was knowledgeable, friendly, and always did his best to ensure we had the best possible safari experience. Thanks to his experience and dedication, we were able to spot an incredible variety of wildlife and learn a lot about the animals and the parks.
We booked the mid-range safari package. In our opinion, only three of the five accommodations truly matched what we would consider mid-range. However, we also recognize that we should have reviewed the hotels more carefully before confirming the booking.
One thing we really appreciated was the support we received whenever an issue arose. Mary was always available, responded quickly, and helped resolve any concerns efficiently. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and customer service made a significant difference throughout the trip.
All meals were included, which was very convenient. As a suggestion for improvement, it would be nice to have more variety in the menu, as many meals were quite similar, often consisting of chicken and rice.
Overall, we would recommend Enjoy Rejoice Adventures. We had a fantastic safari, saw incredible wildlife, and received excellent support from both Pasco and Mary. While there are a few details that could be improved, they do not take away from what was ultimately a memorable and enjoyable experience.

Outstanding Maasai Mara Safari & Exceptional Service
After researching several Kenya safari companies, we chose Nesh Tours & Safaris, and it turned out to be one of the best travel decisions we've ever made. Communication was excellent from the very beginning. Sharon responded quickly to all of our questions, and Morris took the time to meet with us on Zoom to walk us through the itinerary, accommodations, visa process, and what to expect during our trip.
Once we arrived in Kenya, everything was exactly as promised. We were met at the airport, our transfers were seamless, and the entire safari was professionally organized. Our guide, James, was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we had amazing wildlife sightings throughout the trip.
The highlight was definitely Maasai Mara National Reserve. We witnessed lions, elephants, giraffes, cheetahs, zebras, and an unforgettable wildebeest migration. Joseph also joined part of our safari and captured beautiful professional photos that we'll treasure for years.
The service was personal, reliable, and excellent value for money. We never felt like just another booking. You could tell the team genuinely cared about making our Kenya safari unforgettable. We also loved learning that Nesh Tours supports local communities through Safari N Smiles by helping fund free dental, medical, and vision outreach programs.
If you're looking for a trusted tour operator for a Kenya safari or an African safari vacation, I highly recommend Nesh Tours & Safaris. We can't wait to come back.
