Efficient, dependable, educational, communicative
4/5

Explore Rwanda tailored a Gorilla Trek tour for 2 older ladies with efficiency, instilling confidence as their communication was excellent. We were met at the airport by Abraham, our hard working and responsible guide. He provided us with so much information, and also a secure feeling, and was always concerned for our welfare. The experience of trekking to find the mountain gorillas was a "once in a lifetime". I felt very confident with Abraham, and in Rwanda itself- very clean, safe and friendly and the people we sooo grateful for tourists.

4/5

We flew from London to Hoedspruit via Johannesburg and picked up a hire car (a 2*4 SUV) at Hoedspruit. We drove to Satara via the Orpen gate and stayed in Satara for 4 nights.

The standard chalet that we had was simple, but clean and had everything we needed. The fridge, kettle, toaster and microwave enabled us to have a good breakfast before driving out on safari each day.
We took a packed lunch with us each day, because the long drives meant that it was too far to return to Satara in the middle of the day. In the evening we ate in the restaurant which had good, filling food at a reasonable price.
The weather started quite cool and I began to wonder if it had been a mistake not to bring a coat, but luckily it warmed up as the days passed. There was one cloudy day, the rest were sunny with some lovely sunrises and sunsets.

On the way in we drove on the H7 to Satara and on the way out we took the Rabelais loop back to Orpen.

On our three full days, we drove the s100 - s41 - h6 loop twice and the s40 - s60 - s39 - s36 - s126 - h1-3 route once.

Driving ourselves meant that we could spend as long as we wanted when we saw something interesting and we stopped frequently. We didn't feel that the park was too crowded, even though Satara is quite a big camp. At most animal sightings there were only 1 or 2 other vehicles present, while at bird sightings we were normally the only vehicle present.

We enjoyed the Sweni bird hide because there was always something happening. We spent a couple of hours there, on each of our s100 days, watching the crocodiles, hippos and all the bird life.
At the Sweni waterhole on the s126 we saw large numbers of elephants (100+) coming to drink in the evening.

One evening we joined a guided tour run from Satara. It turned into a long drive along the S100 to a reported leopard sighting, but was worth it as we had superb views of a leopard resting in a tree as the sun went down.

We saw all the animals that we hoped to see, plus lots more, with the exception of rhinoceros. The commonest sightings were impala, elephant, giraffe, zebra, kudu and wildebeest, plus lots of birds.

The highlights were the leopard sighting mentioned previously, the elephant and giraffe that walked right past us while we were sat in our car having lunch, the kingfisher slapping a fish on a branch to kill it, the lilac breasted rollers, the martial eagle and many others.

We thoroughly enjoyed our four days self driving in the Kruger, but it was a pleasant change to be driven on guided safaris for the remaining 6 days of our trip in the Sabie Sands and Klasserie reserves.

A memorable experience
4/5

All the arrangements were made online, we planned the tour together and I paid the deposit in advance. When I reached the Entebbe Airport, the pick-up and the rest of the trip was as agreed. The best and memorable part of my trip was the gorilla tracking in Bwindi in that I couldn't have enough. I am in fact thinking of going back to Uganda specifically for gorilla tracking and will definitely use Limitless tours. I would recommend anyone going to Uganda to try the services of Limitless Tours and Travel Limited

4/5

I had Kyazze Arafat as my driver guide for five days and he made every effort to ensure that my time with him on a safari in the wilderness in uganda was a trip of a life time. The itinerary was jam packed and i got to see every thing as on the itinerary( chimps in kibale national park, primates like monkeys and birds during the bigodi swamp walk, elephants, antelopes,climbing lions,buffoles, hippos on a boat cruise on kazinga channel to mention a few)overall,i would highly recommend jungle trip africa for i had a good experience while on my safari.

4/5

The safari in Selous was very very exciting, thanks to Abdalla our driver and the guide we could see animals so near. Some problems with Internet, electricity and water in Hippo camp, but it was nice to wake up with hippo walking just out our room! We tryed to save some money and we decided to do all the transfers by car, it is possible, it takes times, lot of hours, but somehiw it was worth to see villages along the roads.

Safari in Rhino Ridge

4/5

Accommodations at Rhino Ridge were excellent. Room was beautiful, food was delicious, and staff very friendly and helpful. Weather in October was very pleasant. Expected to see a few more animals; however, I enjoyed seeing what we did. Had a walking excursion which was really fun.
