Fantastic 8-Day Safari with Meru Slopes-Gift Tembo & Daniel Mbise Are Highly Recommended
5/5

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Gift Tembo for his prompt responses and perfectly custom‑tailored safari itinerary that fully met our needs. We enjoyed an unforgettable 8‑day wildlife safari in Tanzania.

We are also deeply thankful to our guide, Daniel Mbise. He shared extensive knowledge about wildlife, local culture and regional history. During game drives, he demonstrated exceptional observational skills and great patience, enabling us to spot many rarely‑seen species, including warthogs, hyenas, servals and rhinos. We captured numerous fantastic photos and created precious lifelong memories.

I highly recommend booking tours with Meru Slopes. Please request Gift Tembo to craft your itinerary and ask for Daniel Mbise as your guide!

An exceptional tour operator that delivers unforgettable safari experiences with outstanding service
5/5

We had an unforgettable 3-day safari to Tarangire and Serengeti with Sept Safaris. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable.

A special thank you to our guide, John, who was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife. Thanks to his excellent tracking skills, we saw an amazing variety of animals, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many more. He always made sure we had the best viewing opportunities and took the time to answer all of our questions.

The vehicle was comfortable, the food was great, and every part of the trip exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a professional safari company with outstanding service and an amazing guide, I highly recommend Sept Safaris and especially John. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget!

Trip of a lifetime
5/5

Brighton provided top tier customer service from the initial inquiry through final goodbyes. The suggestions of activities and places to stay were exactly what we were looking for. Even the third party excursions exceeded our expectations.
The animals were spectacular and the time spent searching ended up being a highlight.
Brighton planned and executed a trip of a lifetime for my family and we are forever grateful. Some of us are already planning a return visit and hope to work with Brighton again!

5/5

Our 3-day safari with Sept Safaris exceeded every expectation and was truly the highlight of our trip to Tanzania. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized, and the entire experience was smooth, professional, and stress-free.

A special thank you to our guide, John, who made this safari unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, patient, friendly, and always went the extra mile to make sure we had the best experience. His sharp eye helped us spot amazing animals we would have completely missed on our own, and he shared fascinating facts about each one. Thanks to John, we had incredible wildlife sightings and unforgettable moments.

Our adventure through Tarangire National Park and the Serengeti was breathtaking. We saw elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, and so many other animals in their natural habitat. Every game drive felt exciting, and the scenery was absolutely spectacular.

The safari vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, the accommodations were excellent, and every detail of the trip was carefully planned. We always felt safe, well cared for, and welcomed throughout the journey.

If you’re looking for a trustworthy safari company with outstanding service and an exceptional guide, I highly recommend Sept Safaris. Ask for John if you can you won’t regret it! Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. We will definitely be back for another adventure!

Safari teamwork and intimate encounters
5/5

Julius at Jockey Tours was amazing. He is an incredibly experienced guide - he knew the optimal timing to avoid the rush and knew the best places to seek relaxed, intimate animal encounters away from the crowds of other safari vehicles. When you take the road less taken, you see marvels they others don’t - we saw a baby zebra, still wobbly after being born within the past 15 minutes! We definitely appreciated how the Jockey safari guides worked as a team covering different areas of the park, and would communicate with each other where to find hard to find sightings, like cheetah. Julius was charming, full of stories and interesting behavioral insights to share about myriad of wildlife along the way. The 4-day safari of Maasai Mara never had a dull moment. It was a great value. Yes, the accommodations at Lenchada camp were budget but the beds were pristine, and where else will you have a story about a baboon in your tent? The safari animal encounters were out of this world. Book Jockey tours, ask for Julius. You won’t regret it!

Did a 6 day (5 night) safari with Jackson from Top Selected tours. We have travelled from New Zealand so this was a once in a lifetime trip, Jacksons experience and animal knowledge definitely fulfilled our expectations and more. Everything from the car to accommodation was outstanding.

The Reason I Keep Coming Back to Ethiopia
5/5

I’ve traveled to Ethiopia several times, and the main reason I keep coming back is Mulugeta. He is far more than just a guide. He has a remarkable knowledge of Ethiopia’s history, culture, and traditions, and he shares it with genuine passion and pride.

Lalibela is where he truly stands out. Visiting the rock-hewn churches with Mulugeta completely changes the experience. Instead of simply looking at historic sites, you begin to understand their meaning, history, and spiritual importance. He knows the hidden details, the best times to visit, and the stories that you would never discover on your own.

What impressed me most is that he never rushes you. He answers every question patiently, adapts the tour to your interests, and makes you feel more like a friend than a customer.

If you’re planning a trip anywhere in Ethiopia, especially Lalibela, I cannot recommend Mulugeta highly enough. Without him, my experience of Ethiopia would never have been the same, and he is the reason I’ve returned to this incredible country more than once.

An Unforgettable Adventure in the "Pearl of Africa" – 10/10!
5/5

Uganda was, without a doubt, one of the most incredible trips of my lifetime! I went with not so high expectations, but the reality was completely different. Expect true off-road with the car. I absolutely loved every single moment of this trip.

What made it special:
The Wildlife Encounters: Trekking to see the mountain gorillas in Bwindi and the chimpanzees in Kibale was a deeply emotional, bucket-list experience that I will never forget, sitting 1m away from the silverback is something awesome. Trekking near giraffes and zebras is also something irepetable.

Great Landscapes and wildlife: The scenery is incredibly diverse, changing from the powerful Murchison Falls and classic savannas to the stunning, serene crater lakes like Lake Bunyonyi. Great parks, we loved Queen Elizabeth most because here we have seen all the big5 there in less than 2 hours, we were lucky for sure.

Authentic Safaris: Boat cruises on the Kazinga Channel and the Nile offered spectacular views of elephants, hippos, crocodiles, and unique birds without the heavy crowds of other destinations. We have seen hundreds of hippos, spectaculary big and dangerous wild animals.

Food: If you are into trying new food, local food, nothing will harm you there, the taste it is just different with what we were used at home. I have eaten everyday some sort of local food, some of them tasty, some not my kind. However, you always have options for international cuisine, so rest assured.

Accomodation: we stayed in some really nice lodges along the way, very clean everywhere, with trained personell, good options for food and drink. Internet is not everywhere available inside the rooms, we bought some eSim with internet data and the issue was solved. Network covereage I would say it was in 95% along the way.

Security: Perhaps one of the big question marks before travelling. Well nothing went wrong, during the 11 days there we did not feel at any point to be unsafe, quite the contrary.

Bottom line:If you love raw nature, wildlife, and authentic adventure, Uganda is a must-visit. I came home with a full heart and a massive desire to go back. Highly, highly recommended!

And on top of these all was Sam, our guide, that was extremly well prepared, very nice and polite, well educated person. He was able to tell us all kind of stories about the country, kingdoms there, history, animals, birds, etc. Without a doubt he enhanced the quality a lot.

GO! GO! GO!

A Safari We’ll Never Forget!
5/5

From the moment our safari started until the very end, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded our expectations.

We were incredibly lucky to have Alex as our guide. His passion for wildlife, deep knowledge, and enthusiasm made every game drive exciting and memorable. He always knew where to look, shared fascinating facts about the animals and the parks, and answered every question with a smile.

What really stood out was how dedicated he was to giving us the best experience possible. He was always on time, drove with great care, and made us feel relaxed and safe throughout the entire safari. His positive attitude and friendly personality made every day even more enjoyable.

The absolute highlight was being able to see all of the Big Five, something we had dreamed about before coming to Kenya. We know this isn’t something anyone can promise, but thanks to Alex’s experience, patience, and determination, we were fortunate enough to make that dream a reality.

We leave with unforgettable memories and couldn’t recommend this safari company more highly. If you have the chance to go with Alex, consider yourself very lucky—you’ll be in excellent hands.

Thank you for an incredible adventure that we’ll remember for years to come!
