Everything was fine, can recommend this trip 100%.
This trip was put together according to our wishes and well prepared and we were provided with sufficient information material. The people on site looked after us excellently and organized the change requests very well. Tanzania is a very hospitable, beautiful country with very nice people and we always felt very safe.
This agency took great care of us from the beginning of our trip to the end.
Thank you very much

They were absolutely brilliant, the end to end service was incredible.
From inception the team were really impressive, from sending us through different accommodation types to sending us bespoke itinerary’s through before our trip.
Once we arrived at the airport, the team met us there and took care of everything from there on, we did not have to lift a finger.
We embarked on a four day tour, starting with a Night in Lake Nakuru before departing to the Masai Mara.
Our tour guide Felix was amazing, we literally cannot recommend him any higher. He worked tirelessly to make sure our experience of Kenya was the best and he succeeded. In the Masai Mara he was the most determined driver in the park, always on the hunt for animals and we saw the big 5 in our 4 day trip, pretty incredible.
There was a moment when we were returning back from our 2nd day safari and had not seen a leopard, Felix had his eyes peeled for hours and finally spotted something in the distance which turned out to be a leopard. We were 1 of 2 vans that got to witness the leopard, 30 others came after once it was radio'd through but they saw nothing.
Overall amazing experience and we can’t thank Felix enough for being an absolute Legend all trip! Thank You!

Excellent Uganda experience
We had an amazing experience traveling across Uganda with GoExplore Safaris. All the arrangements were exceptional. Brian and Mozes took care of all our needs and made our trip amazing. This was a mother/daughter trip and initially I was worried about if it is going to be safe or not. All my fears were put to rest when our guide met us at the airport. The only thing we would have done different is, we should have flown from park to park as the distance by road was long and bumpy. We went to almost all national parks and the highlight offcourse was Chimp and Gorilla tracking. We had an amazing time at Kideppo National park where it felt like we had the entire park to ourselves compared to the crowd in other parks. The property we stayed in was amazing and had some spectacular views to nature and wildlife

Endeni was exceptionally knowledgable about all the animals and birds and showed us everything.
African Big Cats Safari in Tanzania was a trip of a lifetime, and I have traveled extensively. We felt very cared for from the minute we landed and were met at the airport. Both the owner and our guide, Endeni spoke near perfect English. Endeni was adept at finding every animal and teaching us to spot them as well. He was able to get us in close for amazing photos while always respecting the animals. Every accommodation was unique, from the Maasai camp to the tent camps. The staff at all the sites were both accommodating and gracious. And yes there was hot water. African Big Cats Safari is very reasonably prices particularly if you book directly with them. Cut out the middle man. For the money we had excellent service and the best guide possible. We were three women traveling together and always felt safe. We had hoped to see the wildebeest migration and we timed it perfectly. We also saw both a lion and a crocodile take one down in the crossing. Every animal we hoped to see and many unexpected were seen. Endeni found them all including the rare siting of a rhino and a tree with 13 lions sleeping underneath. We saw leopards, hippos, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hogwarts, python, baboons, pink flamingos, ostriches, gazelles and impalas, hyenas and chettas. And Endeni is a bird expert as well. You can spend twice as much but I guarantee you won't see twice as much. I literally cried when we boarded the plane to leave. If you want an experience you will never forget, I highly recommend this company.

Phenomenal tour operators
My overall experience with Mufasa tours was phenomenal. I’ll start with my first initial contact with Pauline. She was very responsive, professional and transparent. Communication was spot on! Being a female solo traveler planning my first safari trip it was very important to me that I was staying in a safe place and that the trip was thoughtfully planned. I am extremely happy with the accommodations at Mara Bush Camp that Pauline had arranged for me. The food was better than many five star restaurants I’ve been at. The grounds were well protected by staff. Nelson the manager was so welcoming and helpful throughout the stay. Any many other staff members made my stay there memorable. Thank you Flavia, Leakey, Donald! Last but not least the trip would have not been the same if it wasn’t for Collin my private game tour guide…aka captain Collin. He made sure the game drives were fully enjoyed. From starting the drives as early as requested to having breakfast and lunch packed to assure we had food while being out on a full day drive. I wouldn’t have gotten the picture and videos that I have of the amazing animals if it wasn’t for Collin and his suggestions and driving locations. More than that his demeanor of life has also impacted my life and way of thinking. Hakuna Matata…his favorite saying kept me at ease and made me realize there’s no reason to over stress. Thank you all so much for making this the most epic and memorable trip.

Thank you Jiwe adventures for a well-organized safari
We booked a 7 day Tanzania Camping Safari with Jiwe Adventures and had an amazing time! We saw lots of animals very close, especially the lions have been fascinating! Besides the animals, the best part was our driver and guide Chris! He is such an awesome guy who was with us the whole time. It was like a little family for the 7 days and we where lucky to have him as a guide! Thanks for the great experience best days and especially a big thanks to Chris for being so motivated and interested in his job and in us in person! We would always book a such well organized safari with Jiwe Adventures again!

Stephen is willing to go the extra mile!
Our tour started with a very long drive! Since I was able to sit up front, I had the opportunity to ask many questions. Stephen was ready to answer anything I could ask! Anything about the homes in different areas to the animals we would see on our safari. He was very knowledgeable and never seemed to mind being asked anything.
Our driver, Ronald, was amazing! He could navigate the roads like the professional he is. Always willing to help with packages or assisting me into the van, I felt comfortable and in good hands.
We had very nice rooms to rest after our evening safari. Our tour did not disappoint. Our group was split into 3 groups. Stephen was in my van. How fortunate for us! He could spot a lion or leopard from so far away! This would be my third safari, but I was still excited. I'm thinking what in the world could I see that would be different. Wow! All I can say is wow! Stephen found lions (male & female) with lion cubs. We saw a lion stalking its next meal then spring into action chasing it. We found leopards sleeping in trees, elephants with babies walking beside the road. Giraffes were galloping and playing - their long legs stretching so gracefully as they ran. There were monkeys and baboons, and tons of their babies close by. Upon calling it a day there was only one animal remaining that we had not seen. We were a bit sad but so very thankful for all we did get to enjoy. At dinner Stephen gave us the time to be up and ready to leave. He also informed us that we were going to find a hyena the next morning! He followed through on his promise and boy did we see a hyena then another and another. Running along the road. We were able to capture it all on video! Needless to say, Bushman Safaris delivered the full package! From the delicious food, the nice quiet restful nights and the excitement of seeing the magnificent animals, Stephen made our trip an extra memorable one! I will treasure the memories always!
