A wonderful trip with a outstanding tour operator
5/5

We have chosen Buyaga Safaris for our 11 days Uganda tour.
We have visited the major national parks such as Murchison fall, Kibale Forest, Bwindi impenetrable forest, lake Buyonyi and lake Mburo.
Since the beginning Peter has provided a lot of useful information to arrange our tour and satisfied all our requests on the changes for the accommodations.
On top of this, our guide Derrick really made our days special! He is a young man really kind, polite and passionate about animals and his country, always providing us details about everything we saw. He has always been really attentive to our needs and security, and we really felt secure traveling with him.

We loved everything we did in our 11 days tour from the activities, places and accodomations arranged by Buyaga so we strongly recommend this tour operator.

Last but not least, we will never forget the beautiful Uganda landscape and people from different communities who has always welcomed us with a big smile!

Breathtaking safari
5/5

Our 5 day safari was breathtaking. We took the tour with Suricata Safaris through 4 national parks, so we saw beautiful and, above all, different landscapes. We were briefed in advance by Daniel and looked after well. The hotels on the tour were great, especially the new and own Suricata Lodge is a real dream, and spending the night in a tent was also exciting. The food could be a little more varied. Nevertheless, with our great guide Freddy, we saw all of the Big 5 and many more.
It was a fun and unforgettable trip!

Premium experience in Tanzania
5/5

We took a 5-day safari through the four main parks of Northern Tanzania. The accommodations in the lodge and tent camp were all of a good standard, with kind staff attentive to all our needs. Good food in all facilities and on midday picnics. We traveled in a very large and sturdy jeep all to ourselves. Our Mainer guide was perfect. He speaks Italian well, drives safely in all conditions (due to rain one day we also had to wade rivers in flood and make detours in dirt roads with a lot of water and mud), and has an exceptional eye to see the animals. Mainer has always been a pleasant company during the trip, nice and playful, but also discreet and respectful of our spaces.

3 days safari in Ngorongoro and Serengeti with Arusha city tour
5/5

I did a 3 days safari with Suricata in Serengeti and Ngorongoro and had an amazing experience, I saw all the animals from the big 5. I also had the chance to do a city tour with John in Arusha, who kindly showed me the city’s attractions, taught me some Swahili, and took me to a great local restaurant! Many thanks!

Great experience
5/5

I've been to Africa several times, and climbed Kilimanjaro a few years ago, so I know what to expect out of a tour company in Tanzania, and Fif tours provides excellent and professional service. I did the 4-day camping Serengeti safari and it was a wonderful experience. I communicated with my driver, Johnson, that I wanted to see cheetahs, and he put in a lot of effort to make sure that happened. Our chef made great breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and had coffee ready to go every morning. I recommend Fif for all your safari needs.

A Great operator and the best guide for a safari
5/5

I had a safari experience with my friends and we chose to organize it with Gladiola Adventure, also encouraged by the previous reviews, which were very positive and in line with our feeling for the trip. The organization was perfect and everything was as we would have liked it to be. The thing that took the experience to the "wonderful level" was our guide Regie. he explained the animals and their habits to us in detail, making every day very interesting, furthermore he was ready to listen to us, our questions and also our needs, responding and satisfying them as best as possible. At the end of this experience we saw all the animals, took wonderful photos (here only some photos taken with the cell phone, the ones from the camera are better, I swear) and spent wonderful moments in this country. I highly recommend this experience

Best tour operator you can imagine. It felt like family from the start. The big five in four days
5/5

Noel is a very very nice man from Tanzania who set up this tour operation bij himself. He is very good in online communication, but even better when you meet him. We felt at home the moment we got in his car at the airport.

Filomon was our five star driver who lives just around de national parcs. He is smiling all day long, knows a lot about nature and animals and can drive like Max Verstappen. And he managend to let us see the big five from very close in just four days.

As a bonus we visited a massai village and even did a short coffee tour at Fillipos coffee plantation just around the place where Filomon is born.

We loved it all!!!

Brenda helped us plan a trip of a lifetime, and it was perfect!
5/5

Our experience was exceptional. We didn't have to worry about a single thing from the moment we booked the trip. The tour operator, Brenda, was kind, patient and really cared about our trip planning, understanding this might be the only time we may be able to get to Tanzania. Our tour guide, in one word, fantastic. He knew a lot about everything. As birders, he was patient and made observations for us as we checked off life list birds, one after the other! He knew every area we went, where to be and where to see all of the animals. We felt safe, amazed, excited and elated with the entire trip!
