William Laizer is a very open- hearted and very well organized tanzania expert
The organization of our hike on the Lemosho Route to Uhuru Peak was simply fantastic from start to finish!
All the guides, porters, cooks, and Willi himself are very friendly and make sure you don't miss anything every day.
At every meal, there's an abundance of delicious food, including soups, meat, fried foods, salads, and fruit. And that's true from the first to the last camp.
Kudos to all the porters and guides, who even wake you up with coffee or tea and always pay attention to your health and well-being!
They monitor your blood oxygen levels as well as all the symptoms and well-being typical of high altitude.
We even had a lot of fun on the way there and back. We saw giraffes and zebras, and Willi constantly informed us about Tanzania's landscape, culture, and wildlife.
For all of us, the Kilimanjaro hike was an unforgettable highlight!
Many thanks to the entire team on the mountain, and especially William Laizer! :)

Exceptional Safari Experience with Dosasha Tours and Safaris Highly Recommend
Just returned from an absolutely incredible 7-day safari in Kenya, expertly arranged by Dosasha Tours and Safaris, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the very first inquiry to the final goodbye, their service was outstanding in every way. Here's why they stand out:
1.Attentive & Competitive Planning: Right from the initial consultation, Dosasha Tours and Safaris impressed me. They were the only company to carefully note my specific needs and proactively tailor their itinerary suggestions around them. This attention to detail was immediately reassuring. Combined with their very competitive pricing and incredibly prompt email responses, the booking process was smooth and efficient.
2. Seamless Arrival & Personal Touch: Once the itinerary was confirmed, their care continued. They arranged a perfectly timed airport pickup upon my arrival in Nairobi. The next day before departure the team took the time to provide a thorough and clear briefing about the entire safari, answering all my questions patiently. This personal touch made me feel well-prepared and valued.
3. Unwavering Support During the Safari: During the safari,every single day, they proactively followed up to check on my well-being, ensure everything was going smoothly with the guide and accommodation, and address any questions or needs immediately. This constant, reliable support was incredibly reassuring and made the trip truly stress-free.
If you're looking for a reliable, responsive, and genuinely caring safari operator in Kenya who provides exceptional value and unforgettable experiences, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend Dosasha Tours and Safaris and would choose them again without hesitation!

Safari Soles is the best tour operator + Innocent is the best guide!
My friend and I chose Safari Soles as our tour operator based on online reviews - and we are so glad that we did. From the moment we arrived everything was lovely. Our transfer driver, Eric, was so friendly, even though we had a 3am pickup. Our first lodge, Arusha Farm House, welcomed us warmly even though it was 4am.
Our safari guide, Innocent, was amazing beyond words. He ensured that our safari experience was everything we could’ve ever dreamed of and more. He knew so much about the animals and helped us spot the most amazing things on safari, including three cheetahs eating a gazelle (and about 5 more cheetahs on other days…) three leopards, 25 lions, and even woke up at 5am on our last morning to ensure we saw a rhino in the crater (we saw two!). Beyond the safari experience itself, Innocent took it up on himself to ensure we were always comfortable and taken care of at our lodges. When he dropped us off on the last day we truly felt that we were leaving a friend behind! We can’t say enough good things about this guide and would 100% recommend that anyone booking with Safari Soles request him for your trip.
We also had a great experience with Renata, who helped us plan our safari from start to finish. Her responses are so prompt and she’s always happy to help! Safari Soles has a good relationship with many amazing lodges and camps. We were especially smitten with Farm of Dreams Lodge and Safari Haven. We also stayed at Ang’ata Ngorongoro Camp on my birthday and the staff filled with restaurant with song & dance to celebrate and brought out a cake! Everyone we experienced on our trip was amazing and we’re so grateful that we chose Safari Soles!

It couldn't be any better
Vision safari tours are great. We had an excellent service. Their manager was always there to assist us and every night he was coming to the hotel to see if we need anything. Agustino our guide was perfect. He did his best to make us feel comfortable and see as much of the animals. He was very polite and with a great sense of humor. Thank you all. We have a very good time with you.

Colly was responsible, safe, personable and provided us a once in a lifetime experience.
Where do I begin? In May, I visited Uganda with a team of professionals. Part of our trip was a weekend safari to Murchison Falls National Park. Colly from Kajie Safaris went above and beyond to make this experience one we will never forget. His kindness and warm smile greeted us in our hotel. Immediately we could tell he was an experienced guide who was passionate about what he does. He has a true calling to safely transport people around his beautiful country and help them experience the natural beauty and culture that Uganda has to offer. He was well known and respected at our hotels, as well as within the park. He was in frequent contact with other guides to provide us the best possible experience while searching for wildlife within the park. I would without hesitation recommend Colly and Kajie Safaris to anyone traveling on safari in Uganda. I personally cannot wait to return with my family to this beautiful country, and look forward to connecting with Colly again!

Tiyani, our driver was great and extremely helpful.
Had wonderful experience with Safarilink SA. Vehicle was in time and we had comfortable drive from Johannesburg to Kruger. We were updated time to time by Safari link till we arrived at Johannesburg. Highly recommended.

Excellent organizers of the most unforgetable safari
Using Safaribookings.com lead me to Pamoja and gave me the confidence to entrust them with crafting the most incredible safari in Kenya and Uganda. Putting your trust (and money) in a company half a world away takes a leap of faith but I felt comfortable with Pamoja based on the quick, well thought out responses from Regina and reading about the ethics of the company.
Working closely with Regina, she developed an itinerary that included a visit to the orphan elephants at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and mini safari in Nairobi National Park on my birthday. Then we were off to 5 of the most spectacular parks in Uganda. All of our transfers and intra-Africa flights were arranged perfectly.
Meeting our fabulous guide, Amos, at the Entebbe airport with the huge Land Cruiser that was to be our moving home for the next 10 days was a great start to our adventure. Pamoja is eco-friendly and provided reusable water bottles to be refilled daily from huge bottles in an attempt to cut down on the tremendous plastic consumption.
Regina recommended lodges at the different parks that were unique and a quiet refuge to come "home" to at night after a long day on bumpy, dusty roads. The freshly prepared meals were exquisite. It was truly an "Out of Africa" experience to be sleeping under mosquito netting every night, sometimes with a hot water bottle in the bed to warm it on a cool evening.
Amos gave us a briefing every evening so we would know what time we'd be starting the next day and what to expect. Everyday in Uganda was filled with incredible sights and sounds - from the fantastic animal sightings to the views of the everyday life of the Ugandan people. Thanks to Pamoja's extensive knowledge of Uganda, they included things I had never heard of such as the Ziwa Rhino ranch where we came face to face with southern white rhino and Experimental Lion and Leopard tracking at Queen Elizabeth NP for close up views of those big cats. We asked for some additional activities such as night drives with rangers and lastly, a horseback ride and nature hike at Lake Mburo which were all added to customize our itinerary.
The chimp and gorilla trekking were the highlights of the trip but have no doubt, it can be challenging. Both days were over 2 hours and 2+ miles in dense forests without trails and lots of mud. Amos kindly assisted us with putting on the much needed gaiters to protect our legs from the ants and stickers. Porters in Kibale are totally necessary and a godsend.
We can't thank Pamoja enough, specifically Regina and Amos, for this truly once in a life time trip. It sounds like a cliche but there is little chance of our seeing mountain gorillas or tree climbing lions again so these were once in a lifetime moments.
