Daniel is the best!
I highly recommend the day trip Arusha tour. We had a night prior to safari and weren’t sure what to do in town. This was the best choice! Daniel was the best tour guide we could have asked for. He knew all about Arusha and was super friendly. We wish we had more time with him! Book this, you won’t regret it!

Memorable five day safari tour
We did a five day safari tour with African Polecat and it was a great experience! We visited Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Manyara lake and Tarangire. Our driver (Peter) and cook (Meshack) were very nice and professional people who took care of us all the time and with whom we had great fun! Peter is an excellent game driver. We also felt safe all the time. We had some issues with the group of people we shared the trip the first two days with, but we spoke with John and he managed to find solutions, which we appreciated a lot. Communication with African Polecat was easy and fluent, that was important for us and we are satisfied. When we were organizing the trip, James answered every single question I sent by email and John met with us the day before the trip to explain everything and answer further questions we might have. We highly recommend African Polecat and we thank Peter, Meshack, John and James for the memorable experiences that we lived during our trip!

Jane was very helpful and communicated very well.
Our safari was delayed three years due to the pandemic. Jane kept in touch and kept us informed. She offered good advice and answered all questions. The trip was well planned but flexible enough to accommodate changing conditions. My only negative was that some of the seat belts did not work.

Patrick is a great guide, always willing to help and make the safari unique
The experience with Shanjoy tours has been incredible. We have traveled the Masai Mara for two days and we have seen all the animals that can be seen but also a lioness hunting a gazelle, the migration passing through the Mara river and the crocodiles stalking their prey, a cheetah eating and while the jackals and the vultures waiting their turn, a lion or a lioness mating... it has been a spectacle and Patrick made it possible! He explained many things about life in the Masai Mara and helped us a lot with a problem we had with our luggage.
With Shanjoy you have the possibility to also visit parks in Tanzania such as Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. There are few operators that will organize a safari outside of Kenya for you.
I totally recommend this safari with Shanjoy! It has been a great adventure!!

Fantastic Safari with Greg Adventures!
Everything was perfectly organised and we felt the whole time very safe and very welcomed.
Our driver and guide, Fred, was absolutely amazing. So knowledgeable, professional, nice, discreet, patient, helpful...!! His English is brilliant and he told us a lot about the culture there, the animals, the nature..! He even taught us some swahili. We really enjoyed the time with him and we always felt very safe with him. Thank you for everything, Fred!
Generally all companies are at all times very careful and very respectful to nature and to the animals. That made our experience even more amazing.
The food was at all times delicious and very abundant! Especially Hilda's food at the Migombani Campsite and Lucy's food at Villa Poa. Thank you!!
Renatus was before and during the trip at all times available and was always very helpful and flexible with any changes. Thank you, Renatus!
The vehicle we were using was a Toyota Land Cruiser and it was really good equipped and very comfortable. We even could charge our phones/cameras at all times and it also had a fridge inside with cold water.
There was only one missunderstanding with one of the accommodations, the one in Migombani Campsite. On the itinerary that the company had sent us there's a tented room to see, with a proper bed. But when we arrived we had a very basic and small tent. Otherwise all accommodations where really good!
We are very happy with our tour, we got to see all we wanted and we got to disconnect, to relax and enjoy the nature. We would strongly recommend this tour operator!

Amazing tour, beautiful country, the best guides Vincent&Ibra. The service was perfect!
After we booked this trip and at the moment we landed in Uganda the Speke crew took care of us till the moment we left the country 24/7.
Every thing we asked for was done with a big smile and good will.
I highly recommend Speke Uganda Holidays to anyone interested in a trip to Uganda.

The complete safari was well organized and met our expectations! Many thanks!
We were a small group of five and had booked a three-day program at Selous Mapumziko Lodge with a safari in Nyerere National Park. The tour started and ended in Dar es Salaam.
The tour was well organized! The drive from Dar es Salaam to Selous Mapumziko Lodge took about five hours. The same day we started a boat tour in the late afternoon and could see many hippos – included a sunset. The excellent dinner closed the day very nicely. Next morning we started to the Safari tour. The Toyota Land Cruiser was the right vehicle for the trip at the end of the rainy season with a lot of water holes and muddy trails. Unfortunately, at the end of the rainy season, the animals are spread in the park, are not forced to come to the lakes or to the river and it is hard to find them. But it was our decision to book the Safari in the rainy season and not a mistake of the tour organization. Although we could only see a single elephant, some buffaloes, giraffes, and of course monkeys and birds, the Safari was very interesting. Again, a delicious dinner and a beer at the bonfire formed the end of a beautiful day. Our tent at the lodge was clean and we could hear the wild animals on the edge of the nearby river as we fell asleep. The third day started with a tour with bushman Didi, who explained us a lot about life in the forest. After a rich breakfast we had to go back to Dar.
Many thanks to Gilbert and Franklin for the good organization and the pleasant stay!
