The heart and soul of our safari — Steve
Thank you, Steve, for taking such great care of us over these 9 days.
You drove a total of 1,361 km — and that doesn’t even include all the game drives!
From the long hours on the road and sharing your knowledge with us, to doing everything you could to help us find the animals we wanted to see, you made our Great Migration safari everything we hoped for. 😇
Thank you for making this trip so special! 🤎

It was an incredible experience with our guide Adam.
It was a fantastic experience in two national parks; the campsites were incredible and truly close to nature, and Adam was great, he really put us at ease and answered all our questions.

The trip of a lifetime 🇷🇼🦍🐘
Traveling to Rwanda has been a wonderful experience, and it was all thanks to the organization of Lion Safaris, especially Emile, who was our driver.
From seeing the mountain gorillas to exploring Akagera and the adventure in the Nyungwe forest, every single detail was carefully taken care of.
What we valued the most was being able to get to know the country to the fullest and Emile's kindness—he was always attentive to every detail of our stay and gave us the best advice to enjoy each park and the local culture. Seeing incredible wildlife and traveling through the country with such peace of mind is priceless.
Thank you for making this adventure unforgettable! 😊

Well organised, flexible and experienced in communication
Our overall experience was amazing!
Black santa was professional and easy going from start till end.
I had a couple of requests for individualising our safari tour and they were all met perfectly. We paid everything, including add ons, up front so there was no hastle and no need for plenty of cash on the trip.
Then on the start day of our trip we were picked up right on time by our guide and driver, Opany.
He is a well experienced, extremely kind-hearted and 110% trustworthy guy from the start. He's a very good driver, always on time for the start of the day. He answered all our questions, was funny and gave us some of his stories from.20 years in the job. At the same time, he always knew, when to give a quiet time for enjoying the experience and view with the animals.
Visiting Amboseli and Tsavo East was a memory building trip with all the animals we hoped for and mesmerising diverse of nature.
AA lodge in Amboseli was great overall. One slight improvement would be if there was less music since after a day of safari we'd prefer to just enjoy a quiet time. Another would be a smoother coordination with the stuff of the balloon ride. When we were picked up, the gate didn't open at first, because they thought we'd go without check-out. The hastle had us come a bit late for the balloon start and our driver had a stressful time arriving just in time.
The Voi Wildlife Lodge in Tsavo is good for groups who like a bit of party and pool time. For a couple preferring quietness and private space it's not perfect. The rooms are not insulated too much concerning noise and smoke from the neighbours.
While the view on a water hole with animals is great, it could be more classy with less light on the evening and especially without flashing lights in a selfie-area. Those can be great for tourists, but it seems a bit too much for the animals. Still depending on what you're looking for.
Definitely for one night it's perfectly fine.
Overall would 100% recommend this trip.

A Pearl... just like Uganda!
What can I say? "A once in a lifetime experience" which I have been so lucky to live twice already thanks to the unmatchable guidance, expertise and organisational skills provided by Amos and PrideMark Safaris. I hope it won't be the last!
First time round with a friend, this time with my family,
Amos is reliable, friendly and always available, he perfectly organised my first holiday and this year our 16-day tailor-made tour, satisfying all my requests, replying to my queries quickly, offering very good accomodation based on budget requested (and in one case also exceeding our request) and making sure our holiday would be unforgettable!
My already high expectations were definitely exceeded.
This time round we were lucky enough to be accompanied by the friendly and knowledgeable Collins who, with his impecable expertise and driving skills, brought us all around Uganda and made us experience the "African Massage" as nobody else would have! This is definitely a plus ...
He arranged for extra activities within the local communities ( visited coffee and banana plantations, made and drank coffee, banana liquor, danced with a local dance group etc.). Collins also did his best to encounter the lions 😁 and other wildlife animals during the safari game drives and he definitely was very good company throughout out stay.
Lake Bunyonyi a gem not to be missed - Mountain Gorillas, Golden Monkeys, and Chimpanzees trekking no need for any comment - Queen Elizabeth N.P. amazing game drives- Murchinson Falls - amazing views and animal encounters - Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary: waking safari, incredibile! - the overall countryside you cross during the tour driving from one place to another: just amazing nature!
PrideMark Safaris: you are the best! Totally recommended 😁

100% satisfied with everything!
We got contacted by Kanuth Adventure Safari to start up a future cooperation for travels to Tanzania. They put together an 8-day program including Lake Manyara, 3 days in Serengeti amazing visits in Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangeri National Park. On top of that we had a cultural day and learned a lot of many tribe’s traditions and way of living.
We must say we are so impressed by Kanuths staff and our guide Apollo. An excellent driver and very, very experienced guide that gave us memories of our life. As a bonus Joseph, who has been our contact person for more than 8 months before we arrived in Tanzania, also join us during the whole adventure and used his sophisticated camera frequently.
No negative surprised during our 8 days so a better, trustful and more personal company is difficult to find.
Lodging and food were excellent (you get what you pay for!) and the African massage on the roads was included!
Many thanks for an unforgettable adventure.

Safari SUPER!
Our safari was simply amazing! Our guide, Floridi, made the experience truly magical, leading us to discover new animals and sights every day. We went on a private, customized 6-day, 7-night safari in September—perfectly organized by Glory—that covered Tarangire, the Serengeti (Central and Northern), Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Floridi was incredibly personable and knowledgeable, sharing many fascinating stories about the country, nature, and wildlife. Thanks to him, we managed to see the "Big Five" and witnessed the thrilling Mara River crossing involving thousands of wildebeest and zebras in the Northern Serengeti. I highly recommend this company—and Floridi as a guide in particular—for an experience that will leave an indelible mark on your hearts.

Friendly and knowledgeable
You stop a couple of time on the way up to Kruger one is amazing where you get the chance to see rhino and buffalo.
