Very professional, organized, and reliable.
What an incredible week! We did the 7-day primate tour with Rwanda Eco Company and Safaris and absolutely loved every minute of it. It included a Kigali city tour, Mountain Gorillas, Golden Monkeys, Chimpanzees, Nyungwe National Park, Lake Kivu, and Twin Lakes.
Rwanda is a beautiful country, and the wildlife and primate experiences were truly unforgettable. But what made the trip even more special were the people who made it all happen.
Our guide, Faustin, was the man — warm, friendly, funny, knowledgeable, patient, and always looking out for us. Nothing ever felt rushed, and he went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. Having hot water rags to clean up and cold beer were amazing touches after each trek. He was also very flexible as we wanted to make a few changes to the itinerary along the way. We learned so much from him about the wildlife, the country, and everyday life in Rwanda. By the end of the week, it felt more like traveling with a friend than being on a guided tour.
A special shoutout also goes to Jules, the Sales Manager, who did a wonderful job planning and organizing our trip. Everything came together seamlessly, and we really appreciated his personal touch. He even came to our hotel to welcome us to Rwanda when we arrived — such a thoughtful gesture and a wonderful way to start our adventure!
The whole experience exceeded our expectations, and we came home with so many amazing memories.
A huge thank you to Faustin, Jules, and the entire Rwanda Eco Company and Safaris team. If you’re thinking about visiting Rwanda and experiencing its incredible primates, we highly recommend them. And if you get Faustin as your guide, you’re in for a fun week!

The best organization ever
I highly recommend it; we saw hundreds of animals and birds, had close encounters, and received a wealth of information. Our wonderful guide, Daniel, looked after us throughout the entire trip—his knowledge and skills are impressive—and we thank him from the bottom of our hearts ❤️. Kennedy arranged fantastic accommodation with great views and amazing food. And the price for our 6 was really good. Everything was excellent, from the airport pickup to the drop-off at our hotel in Mombasa; we even received help buying train tickets for a safe return to Nairobi. Many thanks!

Highly recommended
I had the pleasure of using PawMac Safaris' services during my two-week trip to Uganda. Renting a car with a driver was quick and convenient; unlike many other agencies, there were no surprise extra fees at the last minute. A huge plus to PawMac for their transparency. Our driver, Lincoln, was amazing—friendly, always ready to help with various logistical challenges, and consistently punctual. He was always in a goog mood, even after a long, hard day behind the wheel. Best regards to the whole PawMac team. I highly recommend them!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience
An Unforgettable Safari Experience – Flawless from Start to Finish!
Our safari was truly magnificent, exceeding all our expectations. Everything was organized with absolute perfection, without a single minute of delay.
A massive thank you goes to our guide team, Shukran and Chenga:
Chenga is an exceptional driver who knows every road, path, and track by heart. We always felt completely safe and in expert hands.
Shukran was endlessly helpful, precise, and deeply knowledgeable about the local wildlife and nature. His genuine passion for what he does shines through in every detail.
Beyond the wildlife, what made this journey so special was getting close to the authentic local culture. The river safari was thrilling and deeply evocative, and we will never forget the stunning landscapes, the faces of the people we met, and the raw emotions of this trip.
The lodge was equally wonderful—incredibly comfortable, with a spacious, spotless room that provided the perfect retreat after a long day in the bush.
Thank you for making this adventure seamless, authentic, and unforgettable. We couldn't recommend this agency and team more highly!

Perfect Preparation upfront and excellent execution on the ground, highly recommended!
10/10 – An unforgettable safari experience with Wildfinder Tours.
We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful experience and great collaboration we had with Wildfinder Tours. They promised us an unforgettable experience, and they absolutely delivered.
From A to Z — from the initial consultation and preparation, through the planning and organization, to the execution and care we received on the ground — everything was perfectly organized and went smoothly.
What stood out most was the friendliness, openness, and professionalism of our guide. We were traveling as a family of four with two younger children, and we especially appreciated how much time and effort our guide took to involve and educate our kids about everything we saw during the safari. He explained the animals, nature, and local surroundings in such an engaging way — and even did so in our native language (German), which made the experience particularly special for our whole family.
We also trusted Wildfinder’s expertise when it came to planning our route through Tanzania’s different national parks, and that trust was absolutely justified. Our itinerary took us from Arusha to Tarangire, then to the Ngorongoro Crater, and finally to the Serengeti, and for us, it was the perfect combination.
We combined our safari with two days in Zanzibar before the safari and another week in Zanzibar afterward. Wildfinder also arranged our domestic flights, and everything worked perfectly.
Looking back, we honestly wouldn’t change a thing. The entire trip was exceptionally well organized, while still feeling personal and relaxed. We would book the same safari with Wildfinder again without hesitation and highly recommend getting in touch with them if you are planning a safari in Tanzania.
Thank you again to the entire Wildfinder team, and a special kudos to our fantastic guide for making this adventure so memorable for our family!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An exceptional safari in Kenya!
An absolutely magical and unforgettable experience! We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, as well as an incredible variety of animals amidst stunning landscapes. Every day was filled with excitement and wonderful surprises. 🦁🐘🦒🦓
A huge thank you to Dennis, our driver, for his professionalism, kindness, and—above all—his incredible knowledge of the wildlife. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experiences and saw as many animals as possible.
Thanks also to Alex, our French-speaking guide, who accompanied us with such kindness and good humor. His insights helped us better understand Kenya’s wildlife, culture, and magnificent landscapes.
We are heading home with heads full of memories and incredible photos. Seeing the Big Five and so many animals in their natural habitat was a dream... and it came true! ❤️
A safari we would recommend without hesitation! Thank you.
Very good.
Overall, it was a very good experience. Two guidance drivers for Kenya and Tanzania respectively were all very good and the one for Tanzania, Demas was extraordinary good. He was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and considerate. He made the part in Tanzania much memorable.
The route and the stops were very well planned through with scenes of wild animals and local cultural activities. With the guides’ local knowledge we were able to see a lot of rare scenes of wild animals migrating, resting, running and even fighting.
They recommendations were also good. They consisted of different styles from urban villas to tents in wilderness. Hospitality was excellent, and the food was good even I experienced an upset stomach during the trip, possibly from something I ate.
As an amateur artist, I have to mention that the exhibition of African art was fantastic. I was amazed by the creativity and artistic talent of the African artists. I believe that this could become an important industry, creating opportunities and contributing greatly to improving local people’s livelihoods.
Apart from all the enjoyable experiences, I was somewhat disappointed by our visit to a cultural show in a Maasai village, for several reasons. First, there was a charge of $20 per person, and the village appeared to be a popular tourist attraction (within one hour stay I saw three or four groups there) We therefore assumed that tourism could provide significant income for the community and, in turn, contribute to improving their living conditions and hygiene. However, we did not see much evidence of this. Instead, the ground was covered with animal waste, and the huts appeared extremely basic and poorly maintained.
We were also told that some of these tiny huts, with an area of less than four square metres, could accommodate an entire family of four to seven people. This was very difficult for us to understand and raised questions about the authenticity of what we were being shown.
Anyhow, the experience left us with the impression that the presentation was highly commercialised and, at times, seemed almost staged to create a story of extreme poverty and hardship and to encourage visitors to feel sympathy and make donations. If tourism is generating a significant income from these visits, we would have hoped to see clearer evidence that at least some of that income is benefiting the community and improving the living conditions of the people who live there.

An unforgettable experience without a doubt! I would definitely do it all over again with Jocky Tours. 🦁🐘🦏🐆🐃
Our guide picked us up in Nairobi and took us directly to the camp where we stayed. We did a three-day safari and were lucky enough to see the Big Five! Thanks to our amazing guide, Félix, who was so kind, helpful, and dedicated to helping us find every single one of them.
Thank you so much for making this experience even more special and unforgettable. And a huge thank you to our guide Félix for taking such great care of us and guiding us throughout the safari!
