Excellent!
We did a private safari of five days and have been to Tarangire, the central and northern Serengeti and Ngorongoro. All was perfect. Right from the beginning of planing the communication was easy and Salim adviced us well. He gave us different options and choices, so we could plan the best tour to our wishes.
The Safari itself was awesome. Jonathan has been a great guide. He explained everything about the animals and the landscape but also gave us the space to relax and enjoy ourselves. The lodges have all been very good choosen and we loved falling a sleep and getting awake by the Sound of nature.
Thank you so much for making our trip unforgettable.

Excellenc in all respects, from airport pick up to the ride back home - service excellence!!!
My wife and I had the most memorable first-time experience of not only the Kruger National Park, but of parts of Mpumalanga and its beauty - all attributable to an affordable package from Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris who have invaluable knowledge of KNP and Mpumalanga and notable service excellence. A special mention to Brendon who was excellent and professional, friendly and immeasurably hospitable. And to his team, especially our tour amazing guide Trevor. Keep up the good work!!! An absolute 5-star experience throughout.

Estleon will provide you with an amazing safari experience and tailor to your desire.
Esther of Estleon did an amazing job arranging our 12 day trip to Kenya. She listened to just what we wanted and took the time to patiently tailor our trip to our needs. She was also available while on our safari to address any concerns. I don't know if and when she sleeps! Thank you Esther!
James was our guide from pick up at the airport to drop off. I can't say enough good things about James. He is passionate about his job and very knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw, including the birds. He has an amazing eye to spot things most would just drive by. The job of a guide like James is exhausting. Driving alone would be too much for most, let alone answering questions and looking for game, but he did it all with the goal of providing us with the best experience as possible. Thank you James! You are a hard worker and a talented amazing guide!
If I have an opportunity to go back I will use Estleon again and request James .

Amazing
This company helped me, since I started planning my trip from Costa Rica, Ruth was very kind and gave me varied options and varied prices depending on my needs and possibilities. From the first day I felt supported and cared for, my guide was Gerald, an excellent, respectful man who made great efforts to make me experience each of the activities in the best way, he made an effort to wait patiently for the animals during the safari, he tried to helping me get products of importance to me even though that was not part of their job. I arrived on time for each activity and did not lose anything that was offered to me in the package I chose. I would definitely hire them again for future visits to Uganda, gorilla tracking was my main activity but I can tell you that in the 5 days I was there I lived incredible moments enjoying the beauties that a country like Uganda can offer with the right guide. My thanks to Ruth for her patience and to Gerald eternally grateful for her service, her friendship and his impeccable work.

Calm and quiet
The transport between the airport and the Kruger area, despite being a 5-hour trip, ends up becoming a quiet and quick journey, as there is a stop for a meal and the vehicle is comfortable.

Phenomenal Adventure
This was the most amazing experience my wife and I have had since the birth of our kids. I would do it again tomorrow without hesitation. Seven by Far provided the absolute best guides and created an incredible itinerary for us. We experienced everything Kenya had to offer and it well exceeded our expectations. We are blessed to now have life long friends in our guides who went way above and beyond to make the experience beyond exceptional. We can’t thank them enough for this experience. I would highly recommend Seven by Far Safari’s.

Terrific guide, cook and assistants, itinerary and safari.
Phillimon Kamogelo <[email protected]> was a wonderful guide, driver, and camping leader to remote areas of Botswana, where we saw many, many species of wild animals and had a good trip. His cook and assistants were great, too.

Great individual experience
My partner and I just returned from a 15 day trip combining both Ruanda and Uganda. Robert proposed a trip according to our wishes - we added some suggestions and always had a good communication before our arrival. Some of our stops were: Kigali with the genocide memorial and the Kandt house. We continued to Musanze visiting the caves and the Dian Fossey Memorial. Continuing to Lake Bunyonyi, we spent the day at the lake with a combined Kajak/boat tour and a community walk with an external guide. My partner went Gorilla tracking which he liked a lot. We continued with Chimps tracking and some game drives in 2 national parks also including some boat tours during which we saw a lot of birds, crocodiles and hippos. Another highlight was Murchison waterfall and seeing the Nile. We also had the chance to see how banana beer is made and how local prople prepare their coffee. At the end of the trip we got to know Kampala and even saw a shoebill with a baby near Entebbe which was one of the highlights of our tour.
What we liked most about our tour was that we really got an idea of how life is like in Uganda - we got in touch with many locals and also had the chance to try local food. The accomodations were in most cases very nice - even though we had planned a budget trip. We saw so many things we would never have expected - but never felt stressed. Robert and our guide Brian were very knowledgeable about all the animals and told us interesting background stories about life in the two countries. All in all we had a great time and would recommend Ovacado tours to everyone.
