More like a 24/7 online concierge than a tour operator!
We were very lucky to deal with Sandra Nicol at Traipsing. She gave us a detailed list of available lodges and was very knowledgeable with her recommendations. When our initial trip was postponed due to covid Sandra was amazing in securing the booking at Tau Lodge at the original price and rearranging for August 22.
Sandra provides a Whattsapp number and quickly became our go to person in all elements of our holiday planning. She fielded questions on everything from weather to currency, air travel, restaurants and activities and much more. I was amazed that she would reply within minutes at any time of day or evening, including weekends. She clearly has a personal satisfaction in providing top class customer service and went way above what we reasonably expected from a tour operator. She was more like a personal concierge, and this was invaluable as we planned our own itinery (apart from safari) and it’s always great to get the inside track from a local on the best things to do in an area.
We ended up booking car hire and several excursions through Traipsing, which simplified matters for us and secured cheaper rates than we could have got ourselves.
The quality and service at the safari lodge was incredible and throughout our stay Sandra took a personal interest in ensuring our experience was going well.
I can’t thank Traipsing and Sandra enough for ensuring we had the holiday of a life time.

Came as a guest, left as a friend
We booked ( a team of 13 people from Italy ) a 21 days Uganda Safari with Yaneta on 2020 but due to the Covid everything stopped and our trip was moved to August 2022.
Despite the pandemic we kept in touch with Bracius, and from March 2022 we set the fine tuning of our tour: we discussed via w.app of logistics, itineraries, transportation, adapter, visas... he was always very responsive and patient.
He is a open and friendly person, his skill and professionality were the ace helped us to reschedule safari 4 times: all in all, we had few pricing change and accomodations scheduled too.
The Yaneta qualified crew, our drivers and guides, have been far more beyond our expectations: Eddy, Nathan and Jimmy went out of their ways to make them sure we had the best experience, always with no hesitation.
Every day, always taking care uf us, shown their enthusiasm, love and knowledge for country and wildlife.
They also drove extra miles to make our stay in Uganda even more enjoyable.
We explored all the most famous ugandian National Parks, stunning landscapes and a awesome wilderness feel.
At Queen Elizabeth N. P. we met 22 lions in a day, an unforgetable experience!
But one of the best moment in my life so far was in Bwindi Impenetrable N.P., home of Mountain Gorillas: being eyes to eyes with some of them was breathtaking and reminded me the Africa taken from the picture-book I read when I was child.
To sum it up, i strongly recommend using Yaneta Safari if you consider tour in Uganda, they can tailored every trip right on the guests requests, at a great value.
Once again, thanks a lot Yaneta Team!

Exceptional Safari Experience!
My great wildebeest migration safari with Wilber Safari Holidays exceeded my expectations! From reasonable costs to timely effective communication, they made my safari seamless. In particular, our guide Moses was not only knowledgeable but also patient, punctual and efficient. I highly recommend them for an unforgettable safari experience.

A wonderful experience at Serengeti
For our family it was the first real Safari. When we landed at Kogatende Airfield in the Serengeti National Parc, we were warmly welcomed by the Oreteti Group, after which we immediately went on our first game drive. The following 12 days, we've experienced the wonders of nature, of Tanzania and Serengeti in various tented Camps and lodges.
Our guide, Joseph, and our drivers, Malaki and Daniel, were all warmhearted and respectful as well as careful drivers, with a excellent knowledge of Serengeti Nature. -- especially Malaki knew every corner of the National Parc.
The whole family enjoyed this trip extremely, reluctant to return home.
Highlights of the trip included:
Serengeti Gamedrives, with spectacular wildlife - including the Big 5
Hot Air Balloon drive - by "Miracle Experiences"
Wonderful tented camps
Beautiful lodges
A birthday surprise for one of us!
We can strongly recommend this small but distinguished company, to everybode who loves to be taken care of in an excellent way.
For us it was certainly not the last trip with ORETETI SAFARI.

A lifetime experience!
Just came back from a 6 days / 5 nights safari tour with lionking adventures. It was really an unforgettable and great lifetime experience in Africa. It was a pleasure to have Good Luck as our safari guide! He has shown us every animal we wanted to see and always looked for the best position to take photos of them. He had a very good instinct to find all the animals and told us a lot about the wildlife and about Tanzania. But also he has a very respectful way to deal with the animal an the nature, so that we don‘t scare the animals - I really liked that!
Careem, our chef, was the best we ever could have imagined! The food, he prepared for us, was always delicous and he respnded to all our whises- we wanted to have some typical tanzanian food.
The tents, in which we slept and the safari truck where in really good condition and clean.
I am thankful for Lionking Adventures, Good Luck and Careem, who made sure that we had the best time of our lives!
Asante!

Amazing safari experience for our honeymoon!
Mama Savani safari was amazing. Alex was great at communicating leading up to our trip. Our guide Mustafa was excellent.. he ensured we saw every animal we wanted to see each day, he taught us lots of Tanzanian culture & even some Swahili! Every accommodation was beautiful with great food, service & views. One week was the perfect amount of time. Asante Sanaa Mama Savana!

Il nostro viaggio in Tanzania
Abbiamo scelto il team di SAFARI AVVENTURA perché consigliato da un amico che aveva fatto un’esperienza bellissima con loro, e cosi’ abbiamo deciso di organizzare il nostro viaggio di nozze in Tanzania, con l’intenzione di fare sia un safari che magari qualche giorno di relax a Zanzibar. Arrivati in Tanzania abbiamo conosciuto Gianluca che ci ha dato il benvenuto nella loro sede di Arusha ed al quale abbiamo fatto le ultime domande prima di partire. Il giorno dopo abbiamo conosciuto il mitico ELIA, la nostra guida, simpaticissimo, disponibile e davvero molto professionale. Elia ci ha accompagnato in tutto il safari, un’esperienza incredibile che ci ha permesso di ammirare e di comprendere qualcosa di questa fantastica Nazione. Abbiamo avuto la possibilità di organizzare un viaggio molto flessibile e soprattutto ci sono state offerte davvero molte possibilità diverse per impostarlo nel modo più conveniente alle nostre esigenze. Le strutture scelte sono state tutte davvero all’altezza ed il cibo proposto per i pranzi nei parchi era sempre caldo e davvero gustoso. Gli ultimi quattro giorni a Zanzibar li abbiamo passati all’insegna del relax, alloggiando in una struttura davvero speciale, il Mwezi Boutique resort, con il suo staff INCREDIBILE, che ci ha regalato emozioni bellissime.
We chose the SAFARI ADVENTURE team because it was recommended by a friend who had a wonderful experience with them, and so we decided to organize our honeymoon in Tanzania, with the intention of doing both a safari and maybe a few days of relaxation in Zanzibar. When we arrived in Tanzania we met Gianluca who welcomed us to their headquarters in Arusha and to whom we asked the last questions before leaving. The next day we met the legendary ELIA, our guide, very nice, helpful and very professional. Elia accompanied us throughout the safari, an incredible experience that allowed us to admire and understand something of this fantastic nation. We had the opportunity to organize a very flexible trip and above all we were offered many different possibilities to set it up in the most convenient way for our needs. The facilities chosen were all up to par and the food offered for lunches in the parks was always hot and really tasty. We spent the last four days in Zanzibar relaxing, staying in a very special structure, the Mwezi Boutique resort, with its INCREDIBLE staff, which gave us wonderful emotions.

Great experience and excellent guide!!!!
Totally loved the trip. The guide was very knowledgeable and trustful, we managed to see the big 5 and several huntings with lion hunting the anthelope 3 meters from us. The trip was very well organized and very good value for money. Looking forward to come back again!!! Great experience off the beaten path!
