Amazing safari experience with dedicated guide!
We had a private 4-days tour for my family, my daughter's dream was to see leopard & cheetah, which is quite hard goal, but our guide Izack did all so well — we caught both right on the first day. Whole safari tour was amazing, including tasty meals with local food, beautiful places for accommodation and telling stories about Tanzania & their people. I would definitely recommend Safari Soles for safari arrangement and especially Izack as a guide!!!

Great experience, kind and dedicated staff!
Amazing experience!
We did a 4 days safari throughout the Serengeti,
Ngorongoro Crater and the lake Manyara.
The communication before booking and all the way until the end has been great.
Our guide Godfrey was very kind, dedicated in providing us with the best experience and comfort, shoutout to him and the rest of the team.
Highly recommend it!

Attentive, fun and extremely well-organised: the best tour operator in town
We spent 10 days in Uganda with Gorilla Link Tours and each day we were so glad to have chosen this tour operator.
From the get go, Carol provided us with a tailor-made itinerary that would take us through the South-West of the country and she was full of tips and suggestions. She is incredibly attentive and flexible, we felt looked after from the very beginning until the end.
Carol made a point of meeting us on our first and last day of the journey, to prepare us for the beautiful adventure we were about to embark on and to get a first feedback on it. This was just a proof of her immense care for her clients. On top of that, she is such a warm, open and overall cool lady, meeting her was a treat.
The main reason we picked Gorilla Link Tours is their commitment to responsible and sustainable travel. Indeed, we didn't only experience the main attractions of Uganda, such as the extremely moving Gorilla tracking in Bwindi, the exciting Chimp tracking in Kibale, the rewarding hike on the Rwenzori and the riveting game drives (just to name a few!!). We also had several activities with the local communities, such as the Bigodi swamp tour or meeting the Batwa Pygmies. These activities allowed us to meet inspiring locals, to experience their culture and ways of living and left us with so much food for thought. Gorilla Link Tours' support for the local communities is what truly makes them a special operator worth choosing.
On top of this, each of the stunning lodges we stayed in runs on renewable energy and made a point of providing comfort and luxury in a sustainable way. The food was also outstanding, we already miss the traditional Rolex!
We could not possibly recommend Carol and her team enough. Thank you for the beautiful memories you gifted us with, we will see each other again!

Excellent & reliable tour company!
Charles helped us plan our safari. He was helpful in suggesting accomodation options that fitted by our budget & safari desires. On our day of arrival, he met us at Jomo Kenyatta international Airport & introduced us to our driver/guide, Jared before we could start the safari.
We had a 9 day safari in Kenyan popular parks of Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo West & Tsavo east national parks! Jared was very knowledgeable about the parks & the animals. He was also honest & ready to help whenever we needed hi help.
I recommend Salina wild Adventures to people planning to travel to Kenya & even East Africa.

Amazing
This safari was a special adventure that I can recommend to everyone. I've been amazed in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We had a very sweet guide, Felix, who explained everything to us and brought us as close as possible to the animals. We were given enough time to actually admire the animals and take pictures of them. The cook prepared 3 delicious dishes for us daily, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I never had to worry or feel unsafe. Everything was so well organized, compliments to the whole team. I will never forget this adventure!

THE TRANQUILITY OF THE TRAVELER DUE TO THE GOOD WORK OF THE OPERATOR.
James's tour suggestion was already enough for an unforgettable experience, my wife and I were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and the experience was amazing, two days at the Fig Tree in Masai Mara and four days at Baobab in Mombasa. Our compliments to WildLife Sun Safaris.

Amazing
We booked a 4 day safari with Serengeti Wakanda. The booking process went very smoothly and Bartho helped us with deciding what fit us best.
We had the pleasure of experiencing both Felix and Andrew as guides and Dullah as the chef. We were impressed about the knowledge Felix and Andrew had and were open to answering any questions! The view was amazing and every park we visited had its own charm. You can also get extremely close to the animals.
The whole experience went flexible and smooth. The only thing you have to do is enjoy your time! I would definitely do the safari over again.

Great value safari!
We did the 6-day safari through Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli. Overall the itinerary was good but a little too long. It involves a lot of driving to get to and back from Amboseli. I’d recommend a shorter tour and prioritize Masai Mara. Although getting to see Mt Kilimanjaro from Amboseli was worth the long drive. We didn’t see as many animals in Lake Nukuru. You couldn’t get as close to the animals as in Masai Mara. I was hoping to see more flamingos but it may not have been the season.
Karibu is a solid tour operator. They offered their home stay apartments for our one night in Nairobi before the safari started. They covered the driving from the airport and to/from the start of the safari. Their communication was fine... I found I had to probe and ask a lot for details. It would have been better if they had an itinerary or set expectations the day before the trip. The planning at times felt rushed or last minute with the camp managers.
The safari driver, Edward, was good as well. He showed us a lot in Masai Mara but I think he got tired as the tour went on.
Since we picked the budget option, the accommodations were as expected. Simple tented camps but unreliable hot water. If you want better accommodations I’d sprint for the pricier tours.
For the money, I think the safari was great value! We saw a lot of animals and felt we got the full safari experience from the trip.

Passionate about his profession and extremely helpful
We had an amazing experience on the 4 day safari trip with Dullah as our chef and Felix as our guide. The whole team was professional and helpful. Dullah cooks amazing food and Felix is extremely knowledgeable about the parks, the animals and knows how to get to the best spots. They contributed big time to making our safari a trip we will never forget! I could recommend Serengeti Wakanda to everyone!
