Uganda 8 Day Safari+Gorillas+Chimpanzee
A truly once in a lifetime tour, Kojoseph and Amos went well above and beyond in every facet of the trip. We always felt safe and that we were getting the best bang for our buck. The experience seeing the gorillas and safari and the falls was unforgettable and their attention to detail and customer service was beyond exceptional. I would wholeheartedly endorse them as a tour with my closest family and friends. Thank you Amos and Kojoseph for a remarkable experience! Came as strangers left as family.

Very good.
I went on a 3-days safari last February with Adventure Makers. As I travelled alone, the organizers merged me with another group of people, which I really enjoyed. The safari went very well. We took the road the first day around 7a.m. from Arusha to Serengeti National Park (~4h drive). We were a group of 5 and had three guides (a driver, a savanna professional, and a cook). They were very warm, patient, professional and very good company !
During the safari, our group was lucky enough to eat very good meals every day. The cook was very clean and made sure to vary and to adapt to our tastes, while also allowing us to discover Tanzanian cuisine.
The safari was very good, and our guides made sure we saw as much animals as possible. We saw the big 5 and many other animals.
We spent the first two days in Serengeti and one day in Ngorongoro. In the morning, we would wake up, have breakfast, then go for a morning game drive and see the sunrise from the car, in the savanna. Needless to say it was a breathtaking experience. We would stop for lunch around 12/1p.m., then go back to the game drive. Around 6.30p.m., we would go back to our camp, chat with our guides and then go sleep in our tents. It was really an incredible experience to have that much proximity with nature. One night, some zebras came next to our tent and stayed next to us all night long

Hakuna Matata - fantastic tour with our family
From the moment we meet Matata until the final farewell at the ferry in Dar es Salaam, our family (kids 7 & 10) enjoyed the safari trip. Matata is one of the most friendly and respectful persons I've met in my life and it was a pleasure to learn from him about the beautiful country Tanzania. Driving the most terrible roads, searching for lions until the very last minute and being fully in control whatever happens, these skills are highly appreciated during a family trip. As it was just Mikumi, Udzungwa and Nyerere/Selous, we already look forward to the day we meet again for a safari trip.

Great!
I did two tours, the northern portion (follow the migration) and the southern portion (marvels of the south). Both tours went perfectly and I have zero complaints about either. The accommodations were good as were the daily game drives and the food. Both of my guides were absolutely amazing (Fadhili in the north and Emmanuel in the south (I know I butchered the spelling of the second)). They were both extremely easy to get along with, and also extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all the questions I had. The only recommendation I would make would be including driving times in the itinerary, particularly for the south portion. When booking, I wasn’t aware the drive from Dar es Salaam to Ruaha would be 12 hours. If I knew that, I probably would’ve chose to fly there instead of driving.

Highly operative headquaters and seriously experienced guides
Guides pointed us to every animal that we came across and we did not spot it. So we havent missed any of it. Headquater managed to get us permision for one more day of game drive in Saturday night for Sunday morning which is really outstanding. Accomodation is above every expetation and above even European standards.

Well organized and close experiences
The safari tour was well organized. We got everything what we needed. They are very well-known in safaris and brought us as close as possible to the animals. Also we got such a good time with the maasai people without having the feeling that we are tourists.

Customer oriented, reliable, experienced with a good network of drivers & accomodation possibilities
We, a group of 4, had a 19 day trip visiting places like Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison NP, Semliki, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi, Lake Bunyonyi and Lake Mburo to just name a few highlights. Starting time in the morning was flexible and dependent on our personal preferences and requirements of the trip. We had just a few fixed dates e.g. the Chimps habituation and Gorilla tracking - some activities were decided at short notice, so dependent on availability of accomodation a quite flexible program even after starting the trip.
Driving in Uganda can be a challenge, but we always felt safe with our driver, even at rush hour in Kampala or on very rough roads in some parks.
Proposed accomodations of different price categories were chosen very carefully. The places were clean, quiet and perfect for relaxing.
In addition a good mix of friendliness and competentce made our vacation an unforgettable experience.
Thanks a lot - a clear recommendation.

The most beautiful time
We had an amazing 4 days trip to Masai Mara and lake Nakuru. Our driver, Kikitu, was the funniest guy ever and made Kenya feel like home. He made us all feel very welcomed and showed us every animal and place there was to see. He really made us complete strangers feel like a big happy family. Thank you for choosing Kikitu for our tour guide he was fabulous!

Unforgettable experience!
Once in a lifetime experience with the best guide we could have imagined. James really went above and beyond to make this safari unforgettable. The trip he planned and the camps he suggested were just perfect. His knowledge about animals is just incredible and compared to other guides we saw, he was so respectful with the animals, making sure to not disturb them in their natural habitat. You can really see that this is not just a job for him but really his passion which made all the difference.+ he takes amazing photos. We highly recommend!

Absolutely recommend
Day before the tour representative from Suricate Safari went to us, and we were explained about upcoming trip.
Next day morning the safari Toyota land cruiser took us from hotel. All safari days was absolutely amazing. We saw Big 5, and much more animals, birds, landscapes. Also there were included personal chief Benjuda, and his food was very delicious. Our tour guide Ezekiel took us in incredible safari game. The team even prepared unexpected surprise for my birthday. Absolutely recommend him as your guide. In every camp place was the hot shower, and good prepared tents. After the trip they took us to our hotel and arranged transfer to airport.
