Great safari, pity about the construction.
Overall we had a fantastic time. The northern half of Murchison Falls National Park is beautiful, with all the wildlife we were hoping for. Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and Budongo Chimp Tracking are both magical experiences; it was an incredible privilege to be on foot and so close to wild animals.
All of our guides were fantastic, helpful and informative. They all added a lot to our experience.
Sadly, it seems an accommodation hiccup caused a last-minute timetable rearrangement, which meant we spent a big chunk of time driving through construction and roadworks in the southern half of the park.
Bushman Safaris organised really nice accommodations for us, and aside from the unexpected changes causing some uncertainty, we were really happy with the experience we had. We'd love to see more of Uganda sometime!

Good experience
Everything very well. The experience of the safari at Serengueti, Gnorongoro, Tarangyre and Manyara lake was fantastic with Florian as the driver and Dula as the cooker. The visit at Kilimanjaro surrondies was very well specially the village of coffee makers, very kindly people. The driver and his fellow Jony was all the moment giving us all we needed. The only things we didn't like of the organization was the payment with cash. Humpry, the manager had told previously we could pay with card. The other thing we didn't like was the acomodations in a different hotel planed.The price of the trip isvery competitive.

Wonderful new experience
Federica is an amazing guide, she understood what we needed and wanted for this vacations/safari. We've seen a lot of animals and amazing places. Road time were right to manage our backpain issues.
It was a magnificent trip and we are looking forward the next one !

Reliably and in time. Friendly and helpful personnel.
Everything was great! Very good impressions! Raymond is really very experienced driver. Secured drive under extremely challenging conditions. In general, service satisfied the price. However, more telling about the animals while being in Masai Mara would be desirable.

Good experience with many kinds of wild lives
I took 4 days safari in Masai Mara NR and Lake Nakuru.
It was good experience as we could see many kinds of animals such as lions, elephant, giraffes, cheetahs and rhinos and so on. As our guide was very good at finding animals, we could see many kind of animals. I appreciate that.
We came back to Nairobi from Safari tour a day before our departure day.
Though our first plan did not include accommodation in Nairobi for the previous night of departure day, the guy from Trip Advisor arranged one night accommodation and airport transfer. It was very helpful.
One thing I would like to point out that during the safari tour exact plan was not clear for me.
Though I received a plan by email sent by Trip Advisor, it was not exact same to actual travel.
I would like to say that if someone had given us explanation about our journey before the tour, it would have been better.
However I am quite satisfied with our travel.
I can say that if you are thinking about going to safari in Kenya, Trip Advisor is good option.

It was a comfortable and enjoyable experience
The whole trip went very smoothly thank you to Skywide tours. Everything went as to plan, they were very helpful and always available when we needed contact. The service you provided was more than excellent, so thank you.

Great experience
Booking the trip was easy and I chose this company based on the high reviews for the price. They were very helpful in meeting my requests and picking me up at the airport from a 2am flight. I got another company for my tour and did not expect a change although this seems like common practice. Had I know this I would have liked to research the other company as I would not have chosen them if given a choice. They were adequate, but the truck used was a little run down and although the driver was knowledgeable and friendly I had a sense that he’s done this plenty of times, so rushed us during some of the stops forgetting how magical the experience of seeing a baby elephant is or your first giraffe. All meals are prepared for you and unlike some other tours we did not have to help prepare or clean. I was disappointed with communication here as I was not asked ahead of time about dietary restrictions, so could not eat the first meal. After that our cook did a great job meeting my restrictions. We did have to set up camp, but not break it down, which was great. It seems like the same experience regardless of what level you book at, so group size seems like the most important factor to look at. The trip itself was amazing Tanzania is an amazing place. I also went to Uganda and Kenya and this leg was my favorite. The Serengeti will not disappoint.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Erika
First stop on the safari, really enjoyed it, but after comparing to Serengeti and ngorogoro, it did not have as much to see.
