Fantastic Safari!! Highly Recommended
We are sharing our deep appreciation to Devine African Safaris for a great safari experience planned and executed with the highest professionalism. Communication via emails and whatsapp in the planning phase upto the time we arrived in Uganda was fast and efficient. Nicholas guided us in creating a great private itinerary for us that included game drives, boat ride, chimps and gorillas tracking. Basically all the great highlights of Uganda safari packed in short 5 days. Boaz was a fantastic guide, caring and keen to satisfy our needs and requests on the safari. We had a great Jeep for the 4 of us and even had space for another 2 and Boaz took us from Entebbe through the parks up to Bwindi for gorillas and back to Entebbe. We loved the lodges selected for us, they were all top notch resting spots; great ambience, wonderful food and comfortable sleeping quarters. I highly recommend Devine African Safaris for Ugandan Safaris

A luxury safari of lifetime
The entire process with Earthwings was seamless from start to finish. The Martin of Earthwings was very friendly, though based in Nairobi on a completely opposite time zone, was accommodating to our schedules and availability for calls. He took the time to listen to what we wanted for our honeymoon in Kenyan Safari of 7 Days to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, The Great Masai Mara and the Diani Beach and presented ideas in a very organized fashion. When we asked for additional recommendations, everything he came back with was in line with what we wanted.
The trip itself was as perfect and smooth as could be. The driver Steven and as a tour guide was timely and friendly. We never had to worry about a thing; he was helpful and willing to answer all of our questions. Our trip time was split between activity and leisure and Martin made a good balance. He and his coworkers checked in on us through an Calls during the trip and made sure we had everything we needed. If there were any issues, they were quick to address and fix them.
I couldn't be happier with our experience with Earthwings Tours and Safaris and I highly recommend using this travel agent for your East African Safaris.
Thank You Martin and Earthwings for making our Honeymoon such a Success we will carry all the good memories of your good services.

Awesome Time with Axis Africa
We had a wonderful and adventurous experience driving through the Mara with Jack and Edwin. The driver cum guides were well informed about all the animals we saw and were able to give us a detailed description of the many animals we saw. We saw every possible creature in the jungle excluding the leopard. I would do this tour again in the blink of an eye.
The rains and the uncertainty on the roads actually added to the fun factor! Thank you for a memorable time Axis Safari

Awesome!
Douglas was our tour guide for our safaris and he was amazing! He knew a lot about the wildlife which was quite helpful. As I am a wildlife photographer and because of his knowledge and skills about wildlife I was able to get good images. He was courteous and always on time ... I highly recommend him as a safari guide.

Amazing Tanzania Adventure with the family!
Ibra of Afrishare Trekking & Safaris created a wonderful 8 days Tanzania safari for us as a family! And our highly professional guide and driver Atif made sure we felt very safe and comfortable. The big Toyota Landcruiser was spacious enough for all five of us, including our luggage. We started with a supercool coffee plantation tour at the slopes of the Kilimanjaro, including a great waterfalls walk. Then next day the safari started and we did Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Indescribable what we've seen during the game drives! Thanks to the experience and fanatism of Atif we managed to see the big five and much much more! We will never forget these wildlife safari experiences.
When it's about the lodging, the 2 nights in Osupuko Tented Luxury Camp was definitely a highlight. Unique interactive shower experience in the middle of the Serengeti at 6.30 am, what can you wish more? Also the last stay, close to Arusha, at the Mambo Hideaway was soo convenient.
Ibra was online available during the whole tour for support and some finetuning about the overnight stays and he managed all the time to solve things properly and satisfying.
We highly recommend Afrishare Trekking and Safaris if you want a guaranteed unforgettable and professional arranged Tanzania safari experience. And ask for Atif as guiding driver!

Amazing
Had one of the best guides Amazing Safari has Joseph.
He tried to accommodate all our needs to the best of his ability.
Always best to split up your safari in 2 morning and evening.
The Ark hotel was not the best small rooms.
Best if you do the hotel Aberdare Country Club which is next to it.
Large independent lodges with a peaceful environment.
The van was ok for 2 persons max 4 persons.
Great wheather in June.
If you can take a small plane on the long trips which take 7hrs or more it is worth it. Since the roads are very bumpy. They call it the african massage.
The whole experience was fantastic and our tour company was superb.
Highly recommend them.

Unforgettable Uganda adventure with the family!
We were looking for a professional, reliable and affordable party who could help us to organize a family private tour of Uganda. After some research on the internet I came in contact with Sander van Zanten from Grassrootz. He turned out to be the perfect partner and Uganda expert for us! We could easily make our wishes and demands known and in no time Sander proposed a wonderful 8-day Uganda adventure. Exactly what we were looking for and in line with our budget. It was arranged quickly and top.
From July 27 to August 3, 2019, we discovered Uganda as a family. And all this under the guidance of the fantastic driver and guide Bob. How nice it was for us to have such an experienced, calm and professional guide. From the start we felt like five of us at home with Bob in the 4WD Toyota Van and he definitely contributed a lot to our travel pleasure. So always ask for Bob when you book a Uganda trip through Grassrootz!
We especially wanted to gain the 'jungle experience' in Uganda, knowing that we would then go to the savannas of Tanzania. The adventure tour therefore went from Kibale Forest, to Southern Queen Elizabeth Park, via Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to Lake Mburo National Park. Unbelievable, the richness of flora and fauna that we have seen, indescribable actually. We wanted to stay in comfortable budget lodges, surrounded by nature. This was also a big hit, with Dave the Cave Ecolodge (Queen Elizabeth) and Broadbill Forest Camp (Bwindi) as top accommodations.
What I found particularly cool about Uganda is that the country has almost everything in terms of flora and fauna, a lot is still untouched and the people are so open, pure and optimistic. Tanzania may be (more) famous for, among other things, the Serengeti and the large amount of wildlife, but because of the growing tourism you will notice that you are seen more as a 'walking wallet' and in Uganda this is definitely not the case. Also in Uganda we have seen a lot of wildlife up close, without a crowd of jeeps around you. We also did a Chimp trek in peace, sailed through the swamp and spotted birds in the jungle and you rarely saw other tourists around you. Unique experiences! Due to the young age of the children we did not do a Gorilla trekking but I can tell from experience that Uganda (and Grassrootz) has much more to offer than this famous attraction.
All in all, thanks to Sander and Bob, Grassrootz has given us, as a family, an unforgettable Uganda adventure. I would like to recommend Sander and Grassrootz to tailor your Uganda trip and ask for Bob as a guide/driver. Success guaranteed!
And ..... if you have any doubts between the well-known Tanzania / Kenya or the relatively unknown Uganda ?: GO UGANDA! The Green Pearl of Africa!
