Wildlife Viewing at Queen Elizabeth National Park
During our 5 days trip we got chance to visit Queen Elizabeth National Park. Wildlife here is kind of good but not as such in Kenya, Tanzania, or Botswana. That is why we said strongly to recommend visiting and supporting Ugandan wildlife and conservation efforts made by authorities. Actually this Park is also famous for its tree-climbing lions, which while hard to locate would be a very rewarding game-viewing experience.
This Park is so much broad that it is splits into two areas, one as the northern section (Kasenyi) and other one the southern section (Ishasha). We found some lions in Kasenyi and were very lucky to find a leopard in Ishasha. It is apparently more common to find lions in the trees in Ishasha but they do also climb up into the cactus candelabras in Kasenyi.
QENP is surrounded by and even home to many human settlements and At the end of the day we meet to some life population. With the support of tourists and Ugandan Wildlife Authority and the Ugandan government, this place will defiantly have a bright future of diversity ahead.

It was unexceptional!
A Great Adventure, Back to Nature 5/5
It was the trip of a lifetime.
Susan promptly answered all my questions before booking and was true to her promises throughout the trip. I was picked up from the hotel on time and joined the other 5 members of the group.
We were lucky to have Simon as our tour guide who made sure we saw all the Big fives and many more animals from real close. My fav ones were the elephant families with their babies in Amboseli Park.I highly recommend taking this fantastic trip that you would rest of your life

Marvelous Tour
We did a Safari with Sino in Mombasa to Tsavo East, Amboseli and Sarova Salt Lick. It was an amazing tour. And it was especially amazing because of our guide. Our guide was called Moha, He was a very friendly and intelligent man, a safe driver and he has very sharp eyes. He could find and explain all animals on tour.
The trip with Sino and especially Moha exceeded all our expectations. Thank you!

Mind-blowing in every way
Our tour guide, Arnold, was amazing. The tour was beyond incredible. We saw every animal at the Queen Elizabeth national park (lucky enough to see 3 leopards). My first safari and we will be back to Uganda and definitely do it again.

Fantastic holiday with lots of experiences
We had a 4 day trek with Phennie and it was fantastic. He possesses a lot of knowledge of especially birds and has a keen eye for finding the various animals in the bush. He made us feel great and welcome and has a great sense of humor!
I can highly recommend traveling with Phennie and his company!

Good Safari experience
An authentic experience, not just a touristic experience of placer and relaxation, it is an authentic African experience with its fantastic posts of exuberant nature and plains with miles of. animals that seem interminable.
This 4-day safari begins in Tarangire, a small park but perfect with a high emotion for the animals that you will see in the distance, the Serengeti is huge, indescriptible, the crater of the Ngorongoro delivers us incredible postage from above the viewpoint, the food is included, and the cook has a good hand, the accommodations are basic but within the framework of the African infrastructure that differs from European standards, there must be a good predisposition but it will be fine. Some normal weather incidents that are part of the saved nature and part of the experience, it could be normal to enter the vehicles in the rainy season, there is a bucket that sticks, the experience is unique, if it is that you look for it. The company is responsible for the inconveniences and I suppose to solve them. An incredible experience !!

Great Guide
For our safari we traveled with Sino Africa and had a great time, our guide Juma was great! Friendly and helpful person, made us fall in love even more with the parks and the nature that surrounded us, thanks to him we saw so many animals. Always attentive to our requests, prepared, punctual and precise made us experience emotions that we will remember over time. When we have the chance to return to Kenya for another safari, we will surely rely on Sino Africa and we would still like to have Juma as a guide to experience another extraordinary adventure!

Fantastic Safari with a Talented, Enthusiastic, Committed Team
BestDay Safaris provided an amazing experience to our group. Accommodations and vehicle were excellent. They provided helpful information and were responsive prior to our arrival. We especially loved the tented camp. Beyond that, our guide Jackson was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly good at his job. He would notice animals (such as a Serval Cat) that we hadn't even considered or seen and get us right up close to see them! Throughout parts of our trip, we noticed that other safari guides would try to follow him, which is quite an endorsement of his skill. We were able to see a tremendous array of animals. Driving through the great migration was definitely a trip highlight, and we appreciated that BestDay gives its guides the discretion/flexibility to get trips like this done as they come up.
We were called back to the U.S. suddenly during this trip. This was disappointing, as we did not get to spend a day at Ngorongoro Crater. Jackson and Peter were very accommodating and got us back to the Kilimanjaro international airport as quickly as possible. Because we couldn't drive back fast enough to make the appropriate flight, Peter drove from Arusha to the JRO airport to purchase us tickets on a plane out of the Serengeti and make this happen. He was able to get us a deal on these tickets and, when the price was lower than expected, he let us know so we didn't overpay.
This company demonstrated knowledge, integrity, resourcefulness, and excellence throughout the entire experience. We cannot thank them enough.

7 day safari in Kenya
We had a 7 day safari trip in Kenya with Okoa Africa. Our driver was always on the right place in the right time and we saw as much as animals as possible. The accomodation was very good - both camps, hotel and guest house. We were very satisfied with all the services during our trip.

Dream vacation with my family
Just wanted to let you know that we thoroughly enjoyed our changed stay at the Sarova Mara Game Club. Thank you for the change. I have recommended you and your company and especially the Sarova Mara (the friendliest personnel) to several people in case they might be interested in a safari in the future. Kim was also very nice and accommodating.
Our last night's stay in the center of Nairobi was an experience but we survived. I guess our plans were not firm enough at the time of booking the safari and we were not sure we would stay in Nairobi so we did not book a hotel upon our return. Unfortunately upon arrival at the airport we were bombarded by solicitors offering all kinds of "deals". Hope to get back to Kenya someday with our grandchildren and you can be sure we will contact you. Thanks again.
