INCREDIBLE safari experience
We chose incredible Africa Adventures as they are a local company with extremely good response rates and honest pricing and what was included. Octavian answered all of our questions and provided a hotel stay before and after our adventure. The trip was well worth the money and this company is very reasonably priced. We initially did a Kilimanjaro climb with the company and added on a four day Safari to the Tanangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our safari guide, Josephat, was extremely knowledgeable and was with us the entire ride. We saw every animal we wanted to see and the lodges chosen by the company were amazing and added to the once in a lifetime experience. Airport pick up and drop off was included and due to a late flight they even arranged for us to have dinner and a shower before our flight home.
I wish I could give this company 10/5 stars for their exemplary service, attentiveness, and family orientated demeanor.

Fantastic trip for a solo traveler
Peak Cruise Safaris gave me the best deal for a personalised one-week trip to Uganda. Jennifer immediately answered all my questions and gave me options to fit my preferences, she also gave me payment facilities.
The trip went as planned with a very professional and safe driver and guide, flexible to provide me with the best options, comfortable van, very good accommodations even in the budget option, and excursions that made me enjoy the trip a lot.
I hope to repeat with them in Rwanda or in another area of Uganda.

A beautiful experience
From Italy, we organised the safari with the very kind Marzia, who gave us advice and assistance at all times. Thank you!
In Africa, we were welcomed by our guide in Tanzania, Ballo, a young man who gave us unforgettable experiences, telling us anecdotes and teaching us about the culture, and above all, who was uniquely friendly.
Thank you, Ballo.

Geofrey organised everything with great knowledge, expertise & patience with my endless email questions & queries. He added everything I wanted to do to the initial group safari tour as I wanted to visit the coast too.
Martin was our safari driver & guide & he was very knowledgeable & a very skilled driver (although we did rename the tour the Shake, Rattle & Roll Safari due to the rutted roads & dirt tracks!) We saw all the animals except the elusive leopard, but that gives me something to return for.
I would happily recommend this company whatever your age (I'm almost 80) as they take good care of you & for all budgets.
Thank you, I've had a wonderful time.

Beautiful and Fun Trip
Livingston and Godlove were fantastic tour guides. They answered all of the animal facts we asked and participated in our car karaoke during the drives between parks. They were very good at spotting difficult to see animals. We saw all of the big five, but I was just as excited by some of the other hard to spot animals like the Jackal and the DikDik.
We also had a photographer, Chizooh, who did a spectacular job. It took off the pressure from is to photograph everything and just enjoy looking at the animals and the nature.
Many of the animals have resting spots near the road, so you get to see animals much closer than you would expect. But don’t skimp on the binoculars! Those are still important.
The accommodations were all great. Each place was clean and provided dinner and breakfast that were much better than normal hotel food.
The food for lunch exceeded expectations. It was real food in insulated serving containers that we ate as a group. It included rice, vegetables in sauce, and a variety of meat options. All of the flavors were really good. It tasted like a home cooked meal.
Overall it was a great experience!

A memorable moment in Africa
This is the first time of me and my wife to visit Africa for the safari. We chose Savannah Explorers and they deployed their guide - Isaac Long to be our leader in this adventure. He is a well-experienced and knowledgeable guide with over 15 years safari experience for answering any questions about the culture, history and animals in Tanzania. I and my wife were excited to meet animals in a very close distance, even with the baby lions and cheetahs! We did enjoyed every moments in these few days with the foods, accommodations and game drive.

Best Uganda Safari Ever – Davis & Wide Birding Eco Tours Delivered a Dream Trip! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just back from an unforgettable 9-day/8-night adventure with Wide Birding Eco Tours, and it was hands-down the highlight of my travels in Uganda! Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As a mix of local and international travelers, we wanted a balanced wildlife/birding safari with gorilla and chimp trekking—and this itinerary nailed it perfectly, at a fair and transparent price.
Our guide, Davis, was the star of the show. His expertise shone through every day: incredible bird knowledge (we spotted so many colorful species and rarities across diverse habitats), uncanny timing for animal appearances, and genuine passion that made every drive exciting. He was punctual, honest, super flexible (adapting seamlessly to our requested changes), and always put our interests first. Davis's deep craft knowledge ensured maximum sightings without rushing. 🦍🦅🦁🦓🐗🐊🐃🐘🦏🐒🦒
The itinerary was packed but well-paced: powerful Murchison Falls (top-of-falls views + Nile boat cruise), thrilling chimp tracking in Kibale, game drives and Kazinga Channel boat in Queen Elizabeth (hippos galore!), the magical gorilla trek in Bwindi (up-close hour with a family—life-changing!), relaxing Lake Bunyonyi. Birding was phenomenal throughout, with aquatic birds, raptors, and forest specials.
Logistics were spot-on: comfortable customized Land Cruiser with pop-up roof and fridge, basic but clean/scenic lodges, tasty included meals, and all permits/activities covered. Wide Birding felt ethical and reliable—great value compared to bigger operators.
If you're eyeing Uganda for wildlife, birds, or primates, book with Wide Birding Eco Tours and request Davis. He made our trip the best—flexible, knowledgeable, and fun. Highly recommend! Thank you, Davis and team!

Great tour - great guide - but some extra charges
We did a 7 day tour through Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Hells Gate and Amboseli and we loved the tour - because of the amazing nature and our amazing guide Boni. He really went out of his way to make everybody’s wishes come true and give us the best experience! If we come again, we would absolutely love to come with him again!! Thank you so much! The tour was great also, the national parks are very different and we managed to see so many different animals, just be aware that they are quite far apart and traffic is not moving too fast here … the one thing we would suggest is to actually tell the prize for “extra activities”, that are kinda included in the plan though, and for expected tips (!!!) in advance… we were informed only upon departure, that a tip of 1000KES per person per day is suggested for the guide and also many activities (Lake Naivasha island, Masai village, hells gate tour, walk in Amboseli) and some meals (2x 500 KES pP) were not included - it would have just been very nice to know these things in advance as there is no ATM in the Parks obviously (Boni found an ATM for us though). The accommodations were all good, although we have changed our first accommodation at Masai Mara and slept at Rhino tourist camp instead. All in all it was a great experience (especially on that budget) though. We would vote 4.5 stars but it doesn’t exist ;) If the extra charges (or "suggested tips") would have been pointed out ahead, as we travel on a budget... - it would have been 5 stars for us. Mind we changed first accomodation. Thank you to the team and the guide!

Experienced
The Safari tour was what I hoped for, and would have rated it higher but don’t know who’s to blame. The Safari group of six people were great but found out that our guide had to manage us from three different Safari companies. All with different 3 day experience packages. I was unfortunately dropped off last after every days safari, (15-45 minutes later). Plus the communication on where I was staying was poor, but I had other transportation management needs that worked out well. I could have inquired more about everything but majority of the time there was not WiFi signal in the bush. The guide/driver knew where to go to give us the best experience. After all the my doubts being fulfilled it was a very good experience.
