Unforgettable!
This was my second trip to Africa, and my first trip to Zimbabwe and Botswana. I can't say enough about Africa Uncovered. Archie and his team put together an exceptional, 5-day travel package for us.
Tafara Shoko, our guide, was invaluable. He shared so much of his personal experiences and unending knowledge growing up in Zimbabwe. He listened carefully to our interests and suggested a change to one day of our itinerary that became a high point of my trip. Chobe Game Reserve should not be missed! Ground safari and Chobe River cruise were spectacular. Thank you forever, Tafara, for your expert guidance and your endearing, warm smile!
Service and hospitality throughout our stay were professional, helpful and welcoming. Food was delicious. Accommodations were charming and comfortable.
Victoria Falls, our last stop, was absolutely breathtaking! Helicopter ride was worth it, in addition to viewing the falls from the ground.
I can't imagine a better-planned trip. It was truly an unforgettable experience that will live in my mind and heart forever.
Thank you, Africa Uncovered!

Fantastic
My husband and I decided to go on our dream African safari. I did some research and reached out to a few companies to inquire. Ozon Light responded back right away and forwarded me a draft itinerary that was absolutely perfect for us.
We booked a two week safari and it was truly that simple.
We paid a deposit a few months before and then the final balance a few weeks before we flew from Ontario to Tanzania.
I was a little skeptical thinking can it really be this easy? Will our person show up at the airport? What if? But no. From the moment we landed in Tanzania, it has been the most phenomenal adventure we have ever been on. We are avid travellers and adventurers. This trip has surpassed anywhere else in the world for us. Ozon provided us a guide named Innocent and he drove us everywhere in our itinerary and explained things along the way.
I am nervous to be in vehicles with others driving; but with Innocent I felt safe. We truly enjoyed his company. We actually said he is welcome in our home in Ontario if he ever comes to Canada. This tour operator is outstanding. They are new. They are local, which is why we are so grateful we chose them. Other operators are owned by business people in far away countries. Ozon light is a small business trying to grow.
Our accommodations were absolutely fantastic. My husband and I cannot say enough good about this company and our experience!
Book OzonLight and ask for Innocent!!

Comfortable all the way and the Theodore took good care of us.
Safe, affordable and easy to book. Safari link made the trip easy and go me to my destination on time. A few stops on the road that are planned very well and made sure there was never a time I needed anything. I drove with Theodore and he was a very good driver.

Mind blowing experience
My wife booked our tour with Ozon Light Tours after doing someonline research. We have always wanted to do a Safari and we figured, no time like the present. Communication with Clinton was easy and simple, he put together a 14 day itinerary for us. He was excellent at accommodating our needs, making changes for us, and letting us know what we needed to do. 25% down payment three months in advance, and the balance paid within several weeks of arriving. The price seemed quite reasonable compared to competitors.
We flew out of Toronto, with a layover in Addis Ababa. We spent days stressing about visas, travel requirements, visas, vaccinations. All of this prove completely unnecessary. Eight hours layover in Addis Ababa gave us a free visa, we toured the city with a guide arranged at the airport very last minute.
Flight to Kilimanjaro was easy, we were picked up by Lembris and taking to our first hotel, which was very nice.
We met our guide for the next 10 days, Innocent, who was friendly, knowledgeable, and an excellent driver. I won’t go into all the details of the Safari, but I will say that it was truly a mind blowing experience, my expectations were surpassed, and I will look forward to coming back to Africa again. As far as our tour operator is concerned, the hotels we stayed at would be considered 4.5 to 5 star hotels in Canada, the service was exceptional, the people were over-the-top, friendly, typically greeting us with a song and a beverage and a warm towel. The Safari included lake Manyara, Tarangire NP, the Serengeti x 4 days, Ngorongoto Crater, cultural tours, hike, to some waterfalls and a hike in Kilimanjaro. Although perhaps we were completely prepared for what a Safari in involves, the experience was once in a lifetime.
To summarize, I really don’t have enough good things to say about Ozon Light Tours
There are many other tour operators out there, but these guys knocked it out of the park. Well done.

Excellent tour
We had a great tour. Very reasonably priced and our tour guide Matteo was very attentive. We fell in love with Uganda and the gorilla trek was amazing. We were less than 2 metres away from a whole gorilla family. Would recommend this tour.

Unforgettable & amazing experience!!
I had an incredible experience with Jocky Tours and Safaris. Our guide, Peter Kapino, was fantastic! A true gem you’ll be lucky to get! Knowledgeable, funny, patient, brilliant driving skills and made sure we got all the perfect timely shots. Luckily we got to see the big five! Moses who translated for another couple was also great, always ready to help and answer questions.
My reservation agent Maureen was super helpful, very responsive and always answered any queries I had.
We stayed at Lendacha Camp, which was nice. The food was great, and the staff were lovely. This is a was a once in a lifetime experience and totally worth the value for money. Highly recommend this tour company.

An unforgetable experience
We booked a 17days Safari through Uganda and Rwanda with Kubwa Five Safaris and it was absolutely amazing. The planning of the tour was perfect, we could decide between diverse activities and the communication with the team was very easy, intermediate and on point.
Our guide Samuel was the best guide you can imagine. He was very flexible, took care of us very well and showed us the best spots to watch animals. We learned so much about birds, mammels, primates, reptiles etc. Also he was a very skilled driver and we felt save all the time.
Beside the beautiful National Parks, we also visited several communities and spent a great time with local people and got a lot of authentic insides.
It was definitly one the best journeys we‘ve ever had. We fell in love with this countries and made new friends.
It was mindblowing and we‘re sure we‘ll come back.
We absolutely recommend to
book with Kubwa five Safaris!!!!
Thank you so much!!

Unforgettable experience!
I completed a 13 day safari throughout Uganda with Candrem and had Timothy as my guide.
Everything was extremely well planned and went off without a hitch. It was my first safari experience and I wasn’t sure what to expect but I absolutely loved it. From seeing the big 5, to trekking with chimps and gorillas, this trip had it all. There were some long days but that’s because we had lots to see! There were some fabulous lodges along the way and truly unforgettable experiences. Andrew was a pleasure to deal with and it was super easy to arrange. Can highly recommend Candrem Expeditions!

The perfect safari
An amazing experience. highly recomend the campsite night stay, very suggestive and immersive. Sleeping in Ngorongoro or Serengeti national park is priceless, and the vibes are awesome. Our guide Patrick was always gentle, kind, and full of intresting insight about the wildlife. You can feel the passion he has for his amazing job. Also, food was excellent

Perfect 10 days Safari
We had an amazing safari experience with Brilliant Safari! Our guide, Aaron, was fantastic – a very skilled driver and incredibly knowledgeable. He speaks German fluently, which made everything so much easier for us, and he was always happy to answer all of our questions in detail. Thanks to his experience and patience, we were lucky enough to see the Big 5!
Everything was well organized by Lightness, and we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time.
"Lightness" coordinated all necessary information and led us through a fantastic itinerary!
We can highly recommend Brilliant Safari and especially Aaron as a guide. It was truly an unforgettale trip!
