Fantastic Akagera safari
We had a fantastic 2 day safari in Akagera National Park with Kingfisher Journeys. We saw elephants, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, buffaloes, hippos, loads of monkeys, antelopes, warthogs, and even a leopard! Our guide Isaac was very friendly and helpful and was amazing at spotting wildlife. I definitely recommend this.

Friendly, helpful, flexible and well organised
Had a fantastic time with Myler in Uganda. Everything was hassle-free and flexible. They put together a really perfect bespoke itinerary at a reasonable price. Travelling solo was no problem and no extra and payment was online and secure (some other places expect cash). Obviously, the gorillas were the stars of the show but Joy's excellent tricky driving and patience, Moses and Diana's communications and lifts and the general experience with all at Myler were great additions, and helped to create a wonderful experience. Thank you all.

Fabulous, Fabulous, Fabulous!!!
We did the 4-day camping Kruger and Panorama Route and it was fabulous. We managed to see so many animals in our short time in the Kruger and the Panorama route was a trip down memory lane for me having grown up in the area. Such a spectacular part of South Africa. Chris and Hopeson were amazing and we miss them both already. Matt and I highly recommend you book your next safari with Wild Planet. Thank you Guys and also to Thale who does so much behind the scenes and was so helpful with our booking. You guys rock!! We hope to see you all again soon!! Matt and Michelle xx

MoAfrika Tours should be the only option to explore Africa period!
The tour was amazing!! Tibu/Timu was super informed and entertaining the experience was so uplifting and we left fulfilled! 5 stars!
Some of our group could not do the full day at Pilanesberg but still wanted the safari experience. MoAfrika offered a half day afternoon tour at a separate park which was super convenient and also very entertaining.

Sandra was friendly, informative and very responsive
Sandra, from Traipsing Africa organised my husband and I trip to Sabi Sands. We had the best trip! She listened to everything we were looking for and suggested the perfect matches for what we wanted.
The transfers were perfect, punctual and really comfortable and the lodge was an unforgettable experience. We saw the big five in one day but I think we were very lucky with that.
I have already recommend Traipsing Africa to a friend who wants to do a Safari. Really good! Will definitely use again.

Fantastic adventure!
We just had a fantastic 12-day adventure with Grassrootz, visiting some of the most beautiful places in Uganda, including Murchison Falls National Park, Kibale Forest with its chimpanzees, Queen Elizabeth National Park and Bwindi National Park with its mountain gorillas. The trip was organised by Sander, who was very responsive and very friendly answering our questions before putting together a fantastic itinerary. We could not have imagined a better trip and we are very thankful for this wonderful experience. We are amazed at the beautiful and lush landscape and the majestic animals we have seen in the parks. Have your phones and cameras ready whilst driving in the car as you are very likely to spot interesting wildlife and birds.
We especially want to thank our wonderful guide David Otto, who is a fantastic driver and knows nearly everything about the country and its animals. He was always friendly and on time and took very good care of us! If you are thinking of visiting Uganda, definitely book with Grassrootz Adventures for an unforgettable trip.

Unforgettable experience, with flawless organization
We really enjoyed our safari in Mikumi organized by Lenard. All the transfers, accommodation and safari tours were perfect in terms of logistics and most of all experience.
Lenard and his driver picked us up from the ferry port in Dar es Salaam, after which we made our way to Mikumi. As we were approaching the park, we could already see a lot of animals around the road, which was unexpected and a great teaser for the upcoming day!
Late afternoon we arrived at our accommodation at Camp Bastian, where everyone was very friendly, the food was tasty (3 meals a day included), and the rooms were clean and spacious, equipped with mosquito nets and insect-proof windows, etc.
The day after we went on our full day of game drive with our safari guide Issac and our driver Novad. Not only could we see almost all animals (giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffalos, elephants, antelopes, monkeys, vultures, pumbas, hippos… and also A LION which was the highlight of our day!!) but also we had a really fun and adventurous day with our crew!! In the late afternoon we made a visit to the Maasai village, which, although interesting, did not seem very authentic, so it was the least worthwhile part of our trip.
The last day we had breakfast and drove back to the ferry in Dar es Salaam, making some necessary stops on the way, to which Lenard and his driver were very accommodating! Overall, a great experience and I highly recommend this safari provider.

Fantastic in all regards!
Myself and 8 other people went on a 12 day tour throughout the park, and everything could not have gone better. EVERYTHING was FANTASTIC! WOW!!!!
We were camping along the way and staying in the same camp about 2-3 days each on average, for a total of 12 days. EKS handled all aspects of the trip: transportation/guiding, meals, lodging (tent), and everything else that might be smaller. We had Sam and Paul as guides and took 2 trucks. The transportation/guiding was amazing - you could tell that Sam was the longtime guide that all the other guides (in other outfitters) constantly talked to and asked for advice. Paul provided a perfect partner guide as their personalities worked great together and complemented each other well. Each day was great and long enough to see animals, without getting overwhelmed or leaving miles on the table. Food was traditional "western" food with a carb (rice/potato), meat (chicken/beef/etc), salad, bread, soup, dessert. PLENTY of food. And wine/beer/mixed drinks. Everything was served to you and it was a full 5 star experience in all regards. Lodging was also better than most people have at home with fresh sheets each day, large tents, bathrooms/shower in each tent, and all the small amenities you would wish for - a cold towel to wipe your face after each drive, a cool wet towel on the outside toilet so the seat is not too hot, etc. They thought of it all. I would certainly do it all again and not change anything - the experience was perfect in all regards. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

The pearl of Uganda’s tour operators
Everything was just magical.
Uzuri is 100% worth the money (we would have paid even more!)
Everything was super smooth from day 1. Edris’s communication was perfect, he planned everything meticulously for us and we coordinated over WhatsApp.
Our guide, Joaquin, made us feel super safe all the time and also went an extra mile to get my glasses at 3 am back before our departure from a 9h-driving-far lodge where I accidentally left them.
Uganda is just amazing and the best way to experience it is with Uzuri. Best places, best food and best experiences guaranteed.
