Best in class service + female owned company = highest recommendation
"I travel often to Uganda for work and used Gazelle Safari this time to organize our overland transport and accommodations (we used BIC tours previously). During the time leading up to our trip, Ann always responded to emails within 24 hours. Upon arrival, she met me at the airport with a warm and welcoming smile with water and cookies on hand and loaned me a local SIM card (big time saver).
When one of our travelers missed her connection to Entebbe and hence couldn’t join our overland van to Kanungu district (11 hour drive away), Ann arranged a last minute flight and airport transfers for her to join us - even making a personal deposit for the flight on our traveler’s behalf.
She is reachable via WhatsApp and responds quickly with answers to all questions, helping to solve problems and make things as easy and stress free as possible. For example, when we needed to pay for the new Ugandan social media tax, she quickly did this for us while we were on the road and didn’t have time to figure this out ourselves.
Ann will go above and beyond to give the best service possible. I recommend her to all travelers coming to Uganda - whether for business or personal travel.
(PS - It’s good to know that when you pay the remaining balance of your trip in cash on arrival, you should pay using USD in $100 bill denominations - and if you need to pay with a small portion using smaller bills, they must be printed after 2009 without any tears or ink stains. All bills should be clean and pristine. When exchanging money at forex counters you will also get a worse rate if you have $20 bills which are old and worn out.)"

On day 4 we were taken to the train station where we could enjoy our stay in Mombasa
You feel safe and in good hands

Perfect organized 7 days safari in Kenya
We, me and my wife, spent a wonderful 7 days safari with Bienvenido from Nairobi hotel to Nairobi Airport, including Masai Mara, Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha, Hell Gates National Park and finaly Amboseli with view of Kilimanjaro. Everything was absolutely perfect. It was a shared mid-range cathegory tour.
Prepayment was easy and safe. Pick-up in the hotel was ponctual. Felix, our driver and guide, was excellent. Well informative and kind. The car was clean every morning despite the road not being easy at all.
Accommodations were also good, in Jumbo Mara Lodge, Waterbuck and Masada hotels, and AA Lodge in Amboseli, thanks. Meals were also corrects including the lunch boxes.
I recommend from my heart this Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris Agency.

Absolutely brilliant and phenomenal !!
Perfection at its finest! An absolutely breathtaking experience.
The entire journey was flawlessly executed, right from our arrival at the airport to every little detail throughout the trip. Our guide, Juma, was simply exceptional in every sense of the word. He gave us an authentic glimpse of Tanzania and went the extra mile to ensure that we witnessed every animal possible, all while being incredibly friendly and providing us with an abundance of additional information.
I wholeheartedly recommend the Serengeti Clarity experience to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure.

Perfectly organized totally as advertised exceptional experience in the beautiful national parks.
I did 7-Day tour and Vacation in Uganda with Gorilla Trekking with Home to Africa.
It was just me and my delightful competent guide/driver Karim. Seeing Chimps and Gorillas so close in their natural habitat was the obvious highlight, but the boat ride in the channel between the lakes in Queen Elizabeth National Park was very enjoyable, especially seeing elephants wading into the water.
I loved the safari drives in Queen Elizabeth and Lake Mburo National Park. Lake Mburo was like I had read a strategic stop between Bwindi and Entebbe, AND it really had a lot of animals. One thing about safaris is that with every additional drive and every additional place, you see something new or in a different way. Also, the Eagles Nest Lodge had the most incredible views. A perfect place to sip wine and reflect on all you experiences.
I chose budget accommodations and the cabins were all pleasant, hot water, comfy beds and beautiful surroundings. The food was pretty good and they all had a bar of some sort.
My experience was so much better because of Karim. He was a perfect handler. He spoke very clear English and had a funny sense of humor. He made sure I knew what was expected and what I should wear and have with me. He made sure I did not forget anything anywhere. He advocated for me. His driving skills kept me calm and he was great company; a curious intelligent person. If I saw a rare bird, Karim did not rest until that bird was identified. In addition, he also did not rest until I was safely out of Uganda. It was clear that with Home to Africa I was important and in good hands. I always felt my safety, comfort and quality of experience were top priority.

Reconnecting with nature, wildlife and myself on this epic experience!
As humans, we were meant to connect. Connect with nature, people and most importantly, with ourselves. Yet along the way, we forgot about that. Deep honest connections with people moved to fast and often superficial connections online. Our connection to nature disappeared when we started driving to work, spend the day inside behind a desk, put on the TV instead of going for a walk. And the most important connection of all, the one with ourselves, got lost by all the influences that are pushed upon us, by society, social media, news, and even our own thoughts of not being good enough compared to what we see around us.
We need to reconnect! We need to rewild ourselves!
And that’s exactly what I felt during my time in the bush with Safari Goats, and I couldn’t be more grateful for that!
Safari Goats gave me an incredible experience connecting with our beautiful planet and the wildlife running free, witnessing the most breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, deepening connections with the local and surrounding people, and just experiencing overall happiness. It was impossible to swipe the smile of my face. (I still have cheek cramps)
Also, Eddy is a really good guy you can rely on!
Thank you so much Safari Goats, I will be back 100%!

Your deluxe travel partner!
Tembea Europa Safaris keep amazing us... Trust her with your loved ones and precious time and money. Pauline has an eye for detail, handy connections in the tourism space and a wide pool of luxury travel locations to choose from.
November was birthday month and it called for the beach! We were torn between Lamu and Diani, finally Lamu ticked our boxes. She advised we include a safari as we had a few more days, and we were more glad for it: amazing! Airport transfers were seamless, and we were always met with professional open arms.
As it was a special trip, she organised a surprise sunset dhow cruise and cake! Boy was that AWESOME! Blew our breaths away. I'm still in awe... I smile as I write.
Cheers to those that love what they do, are reachable whenever you need them and have top notch problem solving skills because life happens! This was my most memorable trip, and my family agrees. We couldn't resist but plan another trip in January! The value we got from the packages Pauline put together is unmatched. I'm sold on deluxe travel especially that she got us super deals on them. Why not spoil ourselves a little more? Pack a bag already!

What an amazing experience!! Perfect!!
I definitely will repeat a safari with Suricata safaris. From beginning to the end was perfect. They were punctual picking us up at the airport and they brought us to the hotel. We followed instructions for next days going to our safari in Serengeti/Ngorongoro.
Driver James was amazing good. Lots of experience, we saw the big 5, very efficient and always with a smile. The meals served were really good. It was always plenty of food and it was difficult to finish it! Super tasty!
The camping areas were good and super well located. For picky people, bathrooms are improbable.
They were all super professional and kind. I will see you again “Suricata Safaris”! Excellent Value for money !!
