All staff of this company was friendly.
Dav Safaris is the best tours and travel agency in Uganda. We saw the most animals in the shortest period of time. They are also very reasonable priced. The food was amazing. The guides were excellent, the level of their energy was so high. I recommend them without any hesitation. Thanks a lot Dav Safaris.

Excellent in communication, customer service and overall satisfaction.
As a small group of three, we had been planning on going on a safari for about six months. We hadn’t done anything similar in the past and we were nervous about how to go about planning the excursion as well as the smaller day-to-day details. We did not want a deluxe safari so we aimed for a medium to low budget one instead. We went for the four-day option.
We contacted three separate companies (all registered with SafariBookings) and Colours Africa were the first ones to respond, almost immediately. They provided us with an itinerary illustrating the main locations and a daily breakdown of the whole trip. After discussing it as a group, we had tens of questions; from accommodation for the night before the safari, transportation, types of food available on the excursion, length of journey to the key areas, clothing, the camping sites and the lodges, the number of people the vehicles could fit and everything else in-between. Our main contact was Hamis, who replied promptly to all our questions even on weekends and sometimes very late at night.
On the actual safari, our driver and guide was Benjamin and our chef was Suleiman. The first had this amazing ability to spot animals hiding from (literally) a mile away while we were trying to spot them with binoculars. He knew the best places to view the animals and always listened to our requests, be it to stay at a spot longer to take photos or to explain certain animal behaviours.
I had the misfortune of being unwell for the first couple of days of the safari, having had an upset stomach from the flight to Tanzania. Suleiman (Sully) was aware and always took the time to cook a different meal for me so as not to upset my stomach any further. There were times when I could not resist his delicious cooking and tried a little of everything on the table. We were spoiled for choice. There was always a meat and a vegetarian dish, a carbohydrate as a side, salad and dessert both for lunch and for dinner. Breakfast was equally as appetizing and always included pancakes (crepes) which turned out to be the group’s go-to. Besides that, there was bread, coffee, tea, milk and juice.
Hamis visited us at the hotel the day before the safari to greet us and brief us on the details. He also came and visited me with Gotlisten, his business partner, to see how I was feeling after missing the first day of the safari due to my illness. The latter came to see us as a group upon our return to make sure we were satisfied and address any concerns or issues we may have had.
The overall experience (even for unwell me) was amazing and I would 100% do it again, maybe during the rainy season this time.
We went for Colours Africa mainly because of their pricing, flexibility, friendliness, promptness and speed in communication.

kind and helpful operator
the operator was so kind and helpful, providing us the best plan based on our schedule and budget.
We chose 3 days plan which enabled us to look around the Masai Mara National Reserve all day long on the 2nd day.
on the last day, we also got the chance to visit the Masai village and go hiking near the hotel.
compered to other travel agencies, I would say the price was quite reasonable.

WEU was accommodating, safe, professional, knowledgable, friendly, and most importantly had A/C.
WEU, and their owner/operator Franklin made our Uganda travels truly memorable. Vehicles were clean, in safe working order, comfortable, and most importantly had working A/C. And while all the tour guides were knowledgable, incredibly friendly, and funny, they were constantly vigilant about our safety. They had to be given the number of times they put us within reach of lions, crocodiles, etc... However, our group of 6 always felt watched over and safe. WEU tour guides struck the perfect balance of allowing us to be engrossed with what we saw, while never allowing a boring or awkward moment during the tour. They knew when to just sit there and let us to stand in awe of what we witnessed, never feeling rushed or hurried. From our private Nile river cruise, up close and personal encounters with the wildlife, and never-ending cooler of water, to our river-side exclusive brunch complete with omelette station, freshly cut local fruit, and our own personal warthog show, it couldn't have been more perfect. Well done WEU. I will definitely be back and when I do, it will only be with Franklin and his team at Wild Excursions Uganda.

Exceptional Safari company
We spent 10 wonderful days with Jadore Safari on the southern circuit in Tanzania. From the beginning Koen & Katje were very responsive to our questions and specific requests. They went the extra mile with lots of water in the vehicle as well as sodas and snacks. We must mention the air-conditioning in the vehicle - it was a treat after a day of 30+ degrees of wildlife viewing. We felt well looked after. The accommodation on our trip was great. All the lodges had an authentic African feel with all the conveniences you would expect. We especially enjoyed the view from the Hilltop lodge outside of Ruaha park and the chef there made amazing cinnamon bread! Our other favorite accommodation was Nyerere tented lodge - close to Selous. It was amazing. The food there was the best of the trip.
During our safari we enjoyed driving through the different terrains in Tanzania. What an amazing country. And of course we need to mention the spectacular wildlife we saw....elephants, giraffes, lions, hippos, crocs, wildebeests, buffalo and many kinds of antelope, warthogs, jackals and even leopard. Every day was an different adventure! A trip of a lifetime!

If you are looking for a top quality safari in Tanzania then Serengeti Clarity is the perfect choice
My husband and I recently went on a 6-day safari in northern Tanzania with Serengeti Clarity. We searched through multiple quotes (14 to be exact) and found that Serengeti Smile offered the best tour, value, and standards that met our criteria. We had an incredible time and highly recommend others to do the same.
Our big Land Cruiser with a safari roof was perfect for the two of us and our amazing guide, Champion, who, along with Frank, ensured that we loved every moment of our trip from start to finish. They went above and beyond to show us animals and places that weren't even part of the original program.
We felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip, and the accommodations were excellent. We were truly able to immerse ourselves in the beauty of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes, and we are grateful to Serengeti Clarity for making this possible.
If you are looking for a top-quality safari experience in Tanzania, Serengeti Clarity is the perfect choice. Their commitment to providing a personalized and unforgettable experience is second to none.
