Awesome trip
Wonderful experience. We saw elephants, giraffs, lions, hippos, antilopes, warthogs, crocodiles, different monkeys and a lot of beautiful birds(+walked with rhinos) etc. And the guide explained about the animals for us. It was a trip of great quality!

3 days safari trip to Murchison Falls with Alpha Adventures
We went on a 3 days safari to Murchison Falls and managed to see all big 5 animals. Most amazing was the early morning game drive in the park where we saw buffalos, lions, elephants, giraffes and even a leopard laying on a branch in the tree beside us. The hotel Paraa Lodge was very luxurious with a swimming pool and a beautiful view over the river Nile, where we also went on a boat trip watching crocodiles and hippopotamuses. On the way back to Kampala we strolled along with Rhinos in the Rhino Sanctuary
All in all we are very satisfied with the trip. Peter from Aplha Adventures was very flexible and professional, both as organizer and guide. Even our children were amazed. I would surely recommend other people to book their safari tour by this company.

Personal experience with fulfilling wishes beyond expectation
We spent 2 months travelling through Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia. Although it was during the most busy season - Christmas and New Year, TSS organized us a lot of lodges we could enjoy all by ourselves. If it was a tent in a national park or a stone cottage with the most amazing view, we always felt like we were someone special. The organisation was terrific, from the time we stepped into the plane in Oslo, there was not a single minute someone didn't take care of us. Even when we had half a day waiting in Harare Airport for the return flight, they arranged us a personal driver who took us into the city for some lunch and last minute shopping. We really appreciated that since we wouldn't leave our expensive video- and camera gear out of sight.
We did a lot of travelling before this Africa trip, but we never felt so safe and taken care of.
We got pleasantly surprised so many times, also since we do a lot of photography, we could take close-ups of the most amazing bird-life, a cheetah walking next to our car for more than an hour, and a baby rhino in a national park. We will most definitely book an Africa trip with TSS again. I personally don't think someone can organize it any better. Thanks again to the girls of TSS.

2 day safari at Mikumi National Park
An amazing experience. Everything was excellent from the booking to the actual trip. Our tour guide was informative and a wizz at finding lions! The Mikumi safari lodge was of a high standard and the staff could not have done more to make us feel welcome.

Our amazing Tanzania experience
This for both of us was our first safari experience, and it definitely was most amazing trip we have had. Since we had 3 weeks of holidays we could visit many parks and as cherry on top of cake was couple of days in wonderful beaches of Zanzibar before going back to daily routine. We have been very lucky that our tour company was Daigle Tours - starting from very comfy car up to very high level customer care. Professional guides assured that we saw big 5, plus many other animals and birds. We also visited couple of local tribes, and saw some of their daily life. Moreover they helped to Jimmy organize breathtaking surprise for me - balloon safari over Serengeti. For anyone up for adventures and lifetime experience we recommend to contact Daigle Tours, you will enjoy every moment of your trip!
The service was very prompt and friendly. I had very little time to plan and they were helpful.
Very good communications, and a personal meeting, which was very nice and important. The tour was good, the airport transfer was there when I arrived, and transportation was good. The guide was genuine, sincere, and very knowledgable. The driver was also friendly and helpful. I also really enjoyed the Mnarani Resort, and all the staff. They were friendly and the service was exceptional. The chef was exceptional also, and the seafood was perfectly prepared. I had one issue with one of the rooms at the second hotel in Stone Town, and this was quickly addressed.

Fantastic experience with friendly and knowledgable guide
Kiliholidays provide excellent recomendations andwas flexible to modify program to our wishes (to reduce travel time). Guide, Sami, was extreemly friendly and knowledgeable and problems were solved adequately and within a reasonable time. Tour was great though we had underestimated the distance to travel between the parks. Southern parks are not crowded with lots of tourists so no traffic jams in the park this season. However in rainy season (hardly any rain during our trip) vegetation is dense making animal spotting more challenging. For easy spotting of animals Northern parks may e better alternative.

Much more than I expected of a short Safari
We did not have a lot of time (only 2 half days) for Safari but the tour with Speke gave us more than we ever hoped for. They arranged it to meet our needs and desires. The scenery was spectacular down the beautiful unspoiled Nile to Murchison Falls. We saw many different species of animals up close, including Elephants, Giraffes, Hippos, Lions, Hyenas, Walter Buffalo, Baboons, monkeys, different species of Antelope and Birds everywhere. The tour guide did everything possible for us to see the animals. This Safari was inexpensive and I felt we were well cared with accommodation, meals and transportation and a very knowledgeable guide.

short but sweet, great variety of wildlife
We had a very brief visit to this wonderful reserve. The variety of wildlife was great with many amazingly colourful birds. The rangers were very knowledgeable as well as being friendly and professional. I would love to return here and recommend Selous highly.
