Amazing trip in Africa!
I recently returned from a 5-day safari arranged by Altezza Travel in Tanzania - the safari covered Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Manyara national parks. Because I had fixed dates and could not change them, I ended up in a one-person safari, which actually worked out fine. I had the guide and the truck to myself, which was great. Long story short - I had a great time and would absolutely recommend Altezza Travel. Two people contributed to taking this trip enjoyable. The first is Anna, the consultant who worked with me in setting up the itinerary. She was responsive, easy to work with, and diligent - even though I had some questions about the trip and the various logistics involved, she was absolutely helpful at every point, right up to the point where I left Tanzania to go back home.
The second person who made a huge difference was Tom, my guide. Blessed with an upbeat, cheerful, and infectious personality, Tom was absolutely great on the long rides. His ability to spot animals was uncanny, as was his knowledge about the various species of birds and animals on the safari. He made sure things were in order, went out of his way to make things comfortable for me, and helped me gain a whole new perspective on wildlife. Even when we had a minor accident (our truck got stuck in a waterhole in Manyara for a while), Tom was there trying his best to get things back on even keel. At no point did I feel unsafe or in danger. He helped me get to another truck which brought me back to the lodge, while additional equipment was brought to the site to extract the stuck truck. In the bargain, I got to make a couple of new friends in the truck that gave me a ride :-).
All other facilities made by the company were great. The lodges were clean, functional, and well-maintained. Actually, a couple of the lodges were rather luxurious, which was not what I expected but was happy to see. The arrangements were made with care, attention to detail, and worked out very nicely for me. All in all, a memorable 5 days in and around Arusha.

Best Trip ever with professionals
During our stay in Uganda Meddy guided us in the most beautiful places in Uganda, He could not only keep you safe but he is such a professional tour guide, because he even knows how to find animals easily when your in the game drive, i must say this was a great trip for us compared to our first trip in 2018 with another tour company,
all the lodges were nice good people and friendly most especially where we stayed in buhoma bwindi in the services of Ruhondeza safari lodge where they organized some cultural dancing and entertainments, i really must recommend this company to the fellow tourists because it is worthy a wonderful tour company

Outstanding service and communication
Mr Jong from Sino Africa Safari was highly recommended by our good friend who travelled and used them on the advice of their friends. So, it was like word of mouth. Jong was excellent in communication to meet and even exceed our expectation. He is really reliable to work with. Arrangements were all excellent. Recommend this company!

Fantastic!
We so enjoyed the historical tour of Kampala. The vehicle was clean and in perfect repair. Guide is knowledgeable, beyond knowledgeable- more like a cultural ambassador for Buganda kingdom. You won’t regret your time spent on this tour. Can’t say enough!

Lifetime experienced
Being 2 girls who have travelled and seen quite some things around the world already, this was our very first time in Africa. After reaching out to some safari tour companies, we decided to choose Gosheni Safaris as our safari sales consultant Pendo was just really helpful and obliging in order to make sure that we will draft a tour that is perfectly adapted to our preferences and budget.
Having all these settled up, we were lucky enough to be assigned to our tour guide William, who welcomed us such as friends who have known each other forever already. Driving us around in a comfortable vehicle with pop up roof that included all the facilities during safari, providing us hot lunches out of his magic box every day, and teaching us Swahili in the most efficient way, William went above and beyond to deliver us an experience for lifetime. He didn’t got in line like other tour guides but went the extra mile to give us the best possible view. That way we ended up seeing animals just an arm’s length away, having a cheetah on our car roof, and catching up with the Lion King’s cast in real life.
I definitely recommend to book a tour with Gosheni instead of doing it on yourself, just because an experienced guide has this so called gut feeling that you can’t learn from any guidebook. William knew exactly where to take us or where to wait with his car so that we could see the animals that we always have dreamed of. All we had to do was having trust and being prepared to take pictures.
So, long story short:
Thank you Gosheni Safaris for the chance of a lifetime experience!
Thank you Pendo for drafting a tour to our needs!
And last but not least, thank you William for your time, your patient, and your friendship!

Passion for excelence & customer oriented
I am a touroperator from Bucharest - Romania and had a group of 12 pax with Wildebeest Safaris in mid April 2021, covering 4 days/3 nights safari in Tsavo East, Tsavo West and Amboseli. The clients were very happy with the services they got. The drivers/rangers didnt skip anything from the program and even they ran for "extra miles" in order to offer to the clients the best experiences (animal viewing, lanscapes, view points, photo stops ).
At the end, we encountered an operational issue with Kenya Airways (flight cancellation due to country lockdown) and the owner of Wildebeest Safari led the effort to get the people in time from Mombasa to Nairobi for boarding international flights.

Outstanding, totally professional and made a perfect break. Fully recommend. Book NOW, we will.
We had a tailored package in the Mara which was exceptional. His knowledge and professionalism was first class. We saw everything and more that we wanted. He worked tirelessly to deliver for us all from start to finish. It’s every small detail that makes him a step above the others we have used. Highly recommended and would use him again.
His vehicle was spotless, fully fitted with a fridge, phone charging points and exceptionally comfortable.
The local knowledge of the Mara enabled us to see everything we wanted.

The tour operator is knowledgable and has the background of each site.
During my summer visit in Uganda, I was lucky I had booked with Nile Abenteuer, a company that has good customer service, the tour guards are very hospitable and have a wide scope of knowledge on animals, birds, and the entire enviroment. I didnt regret my choice of touring with Nile Adenteuer and my summer was the best!!!!@
