Amazing nature and wildlife
My Tanzania trip was amazing! First I did a safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with loads of wildlife right next to the jeep.
Afterwards I did the Kilimanjaro Trek all the way to the summit! A really big challenge, but so much worth it! The scenery on the way to the top was breathtaking!
The people are nice and friendly and they really want to teach you the Swahili language, which I thought was great! Arusha was a little too much for me with street sellers etc. I liked Moshi better, and in Moshi you also have that stunning view of the beautiful Kilimanjaro!

Incredible customised tour with so much to see in Uganda and Rwanda
I had a great experience touring around Uganda and Rwanda on a customised 5-day trip from Entebbe to Kigali. The office was very responsive and flexible with my itinerary. My tour guide/driver David was friendly, informative and fun! I really enjoyed the chimpanzee trekking, Bigodi swamp walk, Kazinge channel cruise and of course especially the magical time with the gorillas in Bwindi impenetrable forest! The lodges on the tour were all of good standards and I especially liked the Ichumbi Gorilla Lodge for the comfort of the room, view and the service. The food was all very good and plentiful. The roads are very bumpy but David did a great job to drive as comfortably as possible.
It could be even better if they provided more information on what to bring and wear for the activities, estimated the driving times a bit more generously (due to the roads), and informed me of the tipping culture, better description of some activities, and cost of optional activities such as the community walk near Bwindi (so I could ensure to bring enough cash; note: bringing dollars in small denominations or local money is better than euros or pounds)

A personalized experience with delicious food and comfortable accommodations.
My husband and I's experience with Wild Plant Safari was great! We had a personalized experience as it was just the two of us and our guide. Our guide Gibson really worked to make sure we saw as many animals as possible and we really appreciated his vast knowledge about the animals as well. He was a wizard at spotting the animals through the bush. The food was very good as well and accommodations were comfortable. We enjoyed our jam packed days and would recommend this a safari over a group safari any day.

The experience was amazing. I received excellent service from the staff.
The communication and service was great. The tour itself was very informational and fun at the same time. I got an opportunity to see quite a number of breathtaking scenaries.

Best Maasai Mara trip
Hyrax Safaris provided the ultimate safari to Maasai Mara. Initiallty, I was worried about the prices and accomodation. Rose and her team customized an amazing safari to suit our budget. The services at the tented camp exceeded our expectations. The Maasai village was the climax of the safari. The guides and drivers were friendly and helpful throughout the trip.
I loved the safari and the souvenirs. I recommend Hyrax Safaris.

Great!
Our time in south Africa was spent in Kruger NP which was terrific with many wild animals and birds to view. 4-5 days in Kruger is a perfect amount of time.

Review about Tarangire National Park by Polwach Wudhikulprapan
Tarangire is ideal for elephant lovers. There were several ponds that allowed us to observe them closely and saw they interacted and eventally ran off other animals like zebras as they took control of the water. The rolling hills and abundant woodland of Tarangire are beautiful. If you like the shape of baobab trees, there are so many to be seen here. What we like least about Tanrangire is that there was a kind of insect that bit everything in their paths, including us. Their bites were very irritating and more painful than mosquitoes'. So, please get your strongest insect repellent ready at all times.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Polwach Wudhikulprapan
Ngorongoro conservation area is worth a visit as rhinos can be found here while Serengeti might be too big and too hard to find such an endangered kind of animal. In the crater, there were big herds of zebras, buffalos, wildebeests, elephants and hippos while several prides of lions could be seen as well. The lanscape itself is unique being surrounded by the rain forest in the highland with a great plain at the bottom of the crater. Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge is the best choice to enjoy the magnificent view of the crater.
