Friendly
My 7 friends and I booked a 4-day Kruger safari with safariwithus over our break and absolutely loved it! Andre was super helpful and communicative and made planning our trip seamless. With the inclusion of transportation to and from Kruger, the accommodation and meals, and the safari, this trip was certainly worth the price. It was very nice having safariwithus organize and plan our entire trip as it made for a stress-free process that we all really appreciated. All the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful and made our stay in Hazyview and the drives very comfortable.
The safari drives were planned perfectly in our opinion as we were able to spend a lot of time in Kruger and see an abundance of wildlife (saw 4 out of the big 5!) while still having some down time back at the lodge. The drive down the panorama route was also an amazing addition! The sites on that tour were absolutely breathtaking and we were very grateful to have had the opportunity to see all that we did. Overall, we had an amazing experience and I highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like a seamless, all-inclusive tour of Kruger!

An excellent tour
The 3-day tour to Bwindi to do gorilla-trekking went very well. The tour operator was very quick to answer my inguiry and make an offer.
The tour itself also went very smoothly. It was well-organised and Frank my guide did a great job - he was very informative, friendly and organised.
The accomodation was amazing, the service very nice and all in all it was just great value for the money. I would definitely recommend Northern Fox Adventures to anyone who wants to do a tour in Uganda.

Exceed my expectations
My husband and I did a 8 day Private Safari in Serengeti and Nogorogoro with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys. The company is owned by a local Masai who has excellent connections with the areas we wanted to visit. Jane, the tour director, listened to what we hoped to experience and then designed a wonderful package for us. Our guide, Peter, made our 8 days very enjoyable. He worked hard to make sure we saw the wildlife we hoped to see. He is very knowledgeable about the area and has incredible skill at spotting animals we never would have even noticed. We had many questions about the areas we travelled through and the things we saw. Peter answered all of them and we learned so much. We spent 3 nights at the Osupuko Tented Camp in the Serengeti which was fantastic. The camp has minimal impact on the environment while still being very comfortable. The last 4 nights we stayed at Nogorogoro Farm House and the comforts were much appreciated after the long dusty drive from the Serengeti. One more thing about Peter. He is an avid birder so if your passion is birdwatching then ask for Peter.

Great Guides
Have done a few tours in East Africa over the years but the last few have been really the best. Some great guides behind the wheel and lots of hard work in the office to make sure everything went smoothly.

Very professional
The Safari exceeded our expectations entirely, great experience!
My friends and I had great time from the first day to the last day. We toured Tarangire and Manyara. We were able to tour Arusha City in between too where we stopped at local food places from tandoori chicken joint, samaki makange (fish with vegetable gravy and some local herbs, spices) to nyama choma spots (grilled meat), appetizing breakfast etc! Excellent hotel services, mouth watering picnic meals, AND PROFESSIONAL TOUR GUIDE. It was an incredible experience. We also stopped on the way a couple of times times to support local vendors! We didn't feel rushed at all, or pressured to see animals. Our guide was fantastic. He drove safely and was knowledgeable, and passionate about his job. He was patient and great with the all of us. Also the vehicle was in great condition. We are planning to go back soon for a longer safari!

Amazing,unforgettable experience!
Our 3day trip to Maasai Mara was amazing. Everything went super from the pick up at the airport to the game drives with Peter.
He knows those routes well and was always ensuring that everyone was satisfied, despite being a group of different characters and ages…the interaction was a success! Most definitely a trip to remember!

Excellent Excellent!
We did a 4-day tented safari and it was really the experience of a lifetime! We saw all the big 5 and much more. Also a lot of special sightings such as servil cats and a cheetah. Our guide kababa was very good at spotting the animals and also very knowledgeable, always explaining us interesting facts about them. Our chef Dullah was also great and cooked fantastic food for us. We really enjoyed it a lot and especially my friend was very happy about the excellent gluten-free food she received! The tents were huge and very comfortable and it was awesome to hear the animals so close by at night. Shabani was very kind as well, answered all our questions very quickly and patiently during the planning and booking of the safari. We were even able to arrange a short private tour with him to the Materuni Waterfall a few days later when we had a long stopover between two flights. All in all everything was perfect and I would definitely recommend booking with Nchingo safaris!

Lewis, Ven & Co: Thank you for making this experience an unforgettable memory.
We have done a 5-day tour staying at campsites (inside and outside the parks). Lake Manyara, Gnogongoro, Serengeti and Tarangere.
They were all impressive, but the Serengeti for me was the most complete.
Thanks to the Suricatas team for making this experience unforgettable and taking care of absolutely EVERYTHING. It's nice to hire professionals like them.

A+ safari tour guide Maxwell
This was our first safari experience and it exceeded our expectations! We had Maxwell as our tour guide/driver and he has 10 years of experience going through the safari lands, so we were able to see all of the Big 5 and many more animals on the 3 day tour. He was also great with answering questions about the animals, and made sure we were comfortable and safe from the wilderness. We got as close as a few feet from lions, giraffes, and elephants. We also saw zebra, crocodiles, hippos, gazelles, warthog, heartbeats, some types of birds, and others I'm probably leaving out. The 3 day tour was the perfect length of time - first day arrived at the Jambo Mara Lodge and went for a half day game drive. Second day was a 12 hour game drive. Third day was a visit to one of the local Masai tribe villages where we were given a tour of the village by the Masai community. We saw more animals on the way back since you have to pass through the area to get back to Nairobi. The Jambo Mara Lodge was a full hotel within the park, with a pool.
Highly recommend this tour and Maxwell as the guide!
