Wonderful time in the Mikumi National Park!
We did a 3-days Safari to Mikumi National park with Going Green Safari and it was a wonderful experience! The communication with Viv was very easy and fast. Lenny was our guide for the 3 days and he really took care of us. The lodge is beautiful! We had an own house for us, everything very clean and convenient. The food in the lodge was just so delicious and very fresh cooked! The national park itself is also so beautiful, you see animals all day long. We also visited a Massai village which was a very interesting experience. Thanks for this nice tour, we enjoyed it a lot.

The biggest test of his capability was when we entered a restaurant for dinner.
I must congratulate Trip Advisor to have such a dedicated tour leader like Seth Vincent Oketch, who has served the company loyally for more than 10 years and handling the African market.
With experience, naturally comes maturity and confidence in handling our tour itinerary.
Simple things like seat allocation were firmly settled by his clear instruction and explanation. Some places were closed due to activities organized by local government or strikes. But Seth Vincent was able to make us understand and make alternative routes and times to visit the location on another day.
With his leadership, all our members are 100% happy and followed him for all the side trips, which makes it more enjoyable for our group and easier for him to organize the trips.
This review cannot truly encompass all the good acts, professionalism, responsibility and dedication Seth Vincent Oketch towards our group, but I must say my and Friends, Thormas, Daniel & Marc including the whole group felt at ease and thoroughly enjoyed the trip and we look forward to more trips with Trip Advisor

Excellent, great knowledge of the wild both animals and plants, great service.
It was an exciting, enjoyable trip. Picked from home, the driver/tour guide, John, was well versed with the environment and scenes from the word go. Looking forward every morning for a great day was awesome, John did not let us down. The surprise sundowner evening party in the Mara wilds was the most enjoyable topping of it all. I do and still would recommend the company more and look forward to more trips with them.

Professional, organised and friendly tour company.
Karibu we’re great to travel with. During the booking process they responded to all our emails really quickly and answered any questions we had. The journey to the safari was seamless. Our game drives were amazing. The guides were very knowledgable and made sure we saw the best the Masai Mara had to offer. We got to see almost all of the big five including a pride of lions with their cubs. We also visited the Masai tribe village which was very interesting.

Kilimanjaro! Thanks to John. We both made it!
So my brother and i, we made the 6-day-tour trekking all the way up to Mount Kilimanjaro. It was a holiday at its best. Although somehow mentally and physical exhausting we got an unplayable support from our crew. 29 Africans made our trip a never forgettable one. All the porters, cook and guides made us feel like a family and my brother and i had nothing to worry at all. Best food, helpful people, great tents and company. I would like to say thank you to all of them, But mostly to our second guide John who motivated my brother to keep on going for four more hours (he felt already very weak and exhausted after 3 hours on our summit day). Without John help and motivation words, he might not have reached the top! How amazing it was, that i could hug my brother at the peak!

Very highly recommended
I, very recently, spent an exhilarating 19 days in Uganda under the care of Africa Adventure Vacations.
I worked with Robert at AAV to design a fantastic vacation and was not disappointed with my decision. He was very patient and attentive in the planning of the tour and very responsive throughout.
I was lucky enough to have an outstanding gentleman, Ceasar, as my guide and driver.
Knowledgeable, resourceful, patient and completely focused on my needs. He’s as good as you can get. Ask for him, you won’t be disappointed.
I would not hesitate to highly recommend Africa Adventure vacations to anyone wanting to experience the wonders of Uganda. Truly a vacation of a lifetime.
Thank you so much gentlemen.

Marieka was fabulous, always ready to help and extremely helpful in taking care of all of our needs.
African Travels did an amazing job planning our dream safari. They arranged 3 stays, one in Kruger National Park and two at private parks. All were varied and offered uniques experiences which added much to the overall experience. The animals and habitats were different and allowed us to see more African wildlife than if we had gone to just one area. Vervet monkeys got into a unit our friends stayed in and took her thyroid medicine. Marieke with African Travels organized getting a prescription arranged and having it ready to pick up at a pharmacy in a town we would be passing through on a drive to the next park in just one day!

Service beyond expected
My partner and i visited Uganda in Mid -March as that was the only we could squeeze this year having failed to travel during December due to the travel disruptions that were brought about by the Omicron variant.
I should say that all my grief for having not celebrated my 10th anniversary in Africa as planned in December was cured by the wonderful organization by Mukisa Safaris Uganda.
The comfort and assurance I got from Richard and after our last minute cancellation was great. We had fully paid for the trip and only to get an email that our flights had been cancelled and therefore couldn’t travel.
Thank God our trip was with the right and reputable company. Richard made sure that he handled the schedules very well and we got our dream trip to see gorillas and golden monkeys.
I really recommend Mukisa Safaris to anybody intending to visit Uganda. I advise that you pay keen attention to every word written in the email. Richard will always be willing to offer information that’s of great importance for the successful organization of the trip.
The lodges we stayed in were super clean and in a purely natural setting.
Am very grateful to all the team especially my guide Veronica who was very knowledgeable about Uganda. Solomon who was our driver took good care of us on the roads and we felt safe entirely.
Thank you Mukisa Safaris. We got more than we expected. We will surely return for an extension to the North and North Eastern part of Uganda.
