Amazing 14 Day Uganda Adventure
What an amazing tour Dav Safaris provided! I traveled with my friend, both of us being two middle-aged women, for a 14-day trip around Uganda. The main focus for our trip to Uganda was experiencing the mountain gorillas, but it ended up being so much more. To say that it was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement.
There are many companies to choose from when traveling to Uganda, but now having experienced the trip and being able to witness many tour companies along the way the reasons I would highly recommend Dav Safari is their communication, organization, and passion.
I look through my pictures of the trip almost every day. We were able to have an amazing gorilla trek, seeing the Silver Back as well as several baby and juvenile gorillas. We saw 7 leopards, including one eating his kill in a tree. We saw elephants playing, giraffes running, hippos sparring, monkeys stealing bananas, Chimpanzees, Rhinos. When I think of the trip, I feel

Amazing experience
I had an amazing experience. Simon was devoted to making sure we all saw the big 5 at the Park and was extremely informative about the animals in the Safari. We also visited the Giraffe Center where we took memorable photos. Kudos Safari Updates.

Awesome adventure!
What a day, three lions for almost an hour. Peter was a great guide. He knew where and when to look for all the animals. We saw lions sleeping, waking up and walking down the road for about an hour. We also saw giraffes, hippos, rhinos, buffalo, and more! Thank you Safari Update Travels for the adventure.

Couldn't have wanted more.... Big 5, check!
Our experience with African Big Cats Safaris was fantastic, from start to finish!
I doubt it would have been possible to have had a better experience with another tour provider, of which there are many to chose from, so we can 100% recommend 'ABC' Safaris for anyone looking to make a booking. Rest assured you will be looked after and given the best possible chance of finding the animals you are looking for - and even ones you weren't! The itinerary was great and delivered perfectly, and the accommodation wonderful, no dramas, Hakuna Matata!!
Our guide 'Herbert' met us at Kilimanjaro airport, with a welcoming 'Jambo' (hello) and smile, then showed us to the Toyota Land Cruiser we would become very familiar with over the course of the week! Herbert was amazing, he made our trip so special, his knowledge and experience is incredible, and his eyesight miraculous! We learned a lot about Tanzania, the parks and the animals.. a lot of which we would not have spotted without him. Even while driving the vehicle he would point out animals we couldn't see despite looking! He ensured we saw the 'big 5' and many. many more. Herbert allowed us to go at our pace, whether that was early or late starts / finishes, when to take breaks, how long to stay looking at an animal or move on to find something new..but would also share his advice and suggestions based on his experience and knowledge. Asante sana, Herbert!!!

Marvelous Trip
This was a trip of a lifetime and we are so happy we chose Safari Update Travels. Our tour guide Simon was exceptionally knowledgeable and very generous. Silas in the offices had to deal with so many changes due to the pandemic and did so without any problems. The entire booking was perfectly smooth from start to finish and we are glad privileged to have experienced the incredible Masai Mara alongside such a great team. Fully recommended for all travelers.

Not bad not good experience
I expect to have a more authentic experience.
What we have was a really touristic one.
If you want the easy and touristic way you 'll enjoy it but I expected something closer to the nature.
You can see a lot of animals though.
Another really bad thing was that our driver made a lot of stops without any reason (even for 30 mins) and a lot of locals were coming to sell stuff.
They just want to "sell" you to the locals which is really shame and touristic thing.
I would never booked the same operator even if the guys were so kind and pretty willing to help.

Luxury at its best!
I'm so glad I booked our Safari with Safari Update Travels. Linsel handled everything from start to finish, and was super responsive and helpful. He was able to get us accommodations at Fairmont despite us not getting him a lot of lead time at the last minute when some unforeseeable changes occurred. We were so grateful he made everything so easy for us. James was our guide and his guiding and experience ensured we had a safe and engaging experience out in the Mara. We saw an overwhelming number of animals including the big 5. He was really helpful and accommodating to the group. Would absolutely recommend booking with Safari Update Travels in the future!

PERFECT SAFARI
With a group of friends we traveled to KENYA to do a Safari with AXIS AFRICA, and this trip was so AMAZING!
I planned the full trip (5days) with Lennox and he was very helpful, comprehensive of our needs and available which is a very good things when you travel to Africa.
Our driver Jack, was very kind with us and knows all the best spot to see animals (we have seen the full big 5 in the first day in Masai Mara reserve!!!)
Regarding the price, I compared it with many other companies and they were very competitive and the + was their avaibility.
If I have to go back in Kenya I will recall Lennox and Jack for sure !
