Adventurous and very exciting!
Everything was amazing! The Masai Mara drivers were so informative and great to talk to. We love bud as well! Everyone was able to answer our questions and help us have the best experience possible. I would most definitely book with them again!!

Most Trustworthy, Sincere, and Wonderful Company/Guides to Travel with!
My mom and I booked through Golden Rwanda safaris with Frank. From the moment we booked, to the very end of our trip, everything was seamless. Frank responded to all our emails and questions we had before we got to Rwanda. The price for our trip was the best we had seen anywhere for our length of stay and the activities we wanted to do.
We were warmly welcomed by Frank upon arrival with drinks and taken to our hotel, where everything was taken care of for us. We stayed at some incredible accommodations throughout our 14-night stay. Frank was so flexible in adding things we requested to our itinerary—we were able to add 2 nights in Uganda for gorilla trekking there and community visits and more time in Akagera. We also went to Volcanoes national park for gorilla and golden monkey trekking, spent 3 nights in Nyungwe Forest for chimpanzee trekking and the canopy walk, and 2 nights at Akagera big 5 game park, 2 nights at Lake Kivu, and a few nights in Kigali. Everyplace we stayed and all the activities we did were ready and prepared for us, and Frank provided us with everything we needed. The experiences were incredible- from the gorillas to our Big 5 game drives. Our guides were also very knowledgeable about the history, and the animals on our game drives and trekking activities.
Our guides always went out of their way to get us extra things for our convenience. We were in Rwanda on Christmas and Frank arranged and treated us to an incredible 7-course Christmas dinner at One&Only (super luxury resort) with dancing and performances- it was such a special night! (This was something that was not even in our itinerary). This is just one of the many examples of our guides going above and beyond what was promised!
Frank is such a wonderful host and represents everything good about Rwanda, he truly values providing the best service and experience to his clients, who become like family.
For the Uganda portion of our trip, Frank was not available but provided us with another guide, Isaac, who was also wonderful and tended to our every need. He walked around the village with us all day, for as long as we wanted and ran back to the hotel to get the car when it rained on us. I know I can trust him to provide the best guides.
The vehicles we traveled in were very comfortable and have air conditioning, a fridge for drinks, and lots of room. He also provided us a free WiFi hotspot whenever we asked, and tended to our every request. This experience truly exceeded ALL our expectations!
I would recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris to anyone wanting to visit Rwanda, Uganda, and/or DRC. We will definitely return to book our DRC trip with them!

Fantastic holiday @ Nairobi Kenya.
I can say our itinerary was perfect. We had a fantastic holiday in Nairobi Kenya. We started in Maasai Mara at Enkorok Tented camp for 1 night, then spent 2 nights in Mara Triangle, relaxing and exploring the wild life and preserved ancient town. We finished our tour staying at Nairobi. Our vacation provided a blend of knowledge / culture of Maasai family and relaxation in the green environment.
All arrangement / everything that we asked for was fulfilled beyond our expectations by *Donwel Tours & Travel. *Our chauffeur guide *(Nimrod) & Christine* our tour manager was so knowledgeable and friendly, they made the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable and stress free. We are back with many fabulous memories.. I would thoroughly recommend *Donwel Tours & Travel *to be experienced by other travel group.

Great experience
The driver is quite smart as he knew the right spot to stop to see more animals. The chef is also great, as food was delicious and ready on time.
However, It is good to double check that all equipment for the safari are in the car before leaving.

They put in 110% effort and are wonderful!
My safari trip was amazing. This was my first time traveling solo and they made sure I was taken care of from start to finish! I had an amazing time and look forward to coming back and booking with them.

Best experience of my life. My family and I were well taken care of. I wish we had more time.
I have to admit we were a bit skeptical about booking with HillstarPRC because we didn't see much review about them, but I'm glad we did because as it turns out, it was one of the best decisions we ever did for our trip. We booked a 5 day Serengeti tour and couldn't be happier with the experience. They were very hands on, and they followed the itinerary to the T. My family and I were pleasantly surprised with their professionalism and care. We will definitely use them again for our next trip.

The perfect day out
Seka picked us up from our accommodation on the morning of our trip and took us up to the village of Materuni. There we picked up our tour guide and started our hike to the waterfall. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and a master at spotting chameleons which was a bonus! When we got to the waterfall we had time to relax and appreciate the view before we changed and ventured into the fresh Kilimanjaro water. After this we proceeded to the coffee tour where we were quickly served a delicious hot meal before being given the chance to process coffee beans in the traditional chagga way. Overall our tour exceed my expectations. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and cannot complain about the price. I would definitely recommend taste of Africa tours to anyone who wants an immersive tourist experience. Thank you Seka for the memories!

Awesome company; incredibly professional, honest, conscientious. Recommended very strongly!
Adventure My Take is perhaps the best travel company we've ever dealt with and we've done business with many all over the world. They are extremely professional and prompt in responding to queries and making modifications to travel arrangements. Most of all, Tamara (the owner) takes personal interest in making sure that clients are satisfied. We were unfortunately hit with some bad weather in Kenya that affected our trips to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Tamara instantly made the necessary modifications, and upgraded our accommodations. She personally received us when we returned to Nairobi from Tanzania and drove us to our hotel.
Overall, I cannot recommend Adventure My Take more highly. It's a great company with a wonderful owner and staff!

Great Hospitality
The service was great, our tented camps were wonderful. We enjoyed our stay and the food was really good as well. The staff were friendly and could not do enough to spoil us and the kids/teenagers - they were always nearly creating a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Thank you so much for the great time we had. I look forward to returning with my family. Asante Sana!
