Amazing Trip!
We booked a trip with Azas Safaris Uganda, Prisca showed us different types of itineraries and we chose 9 days trip, it was amazing, we saw wildlife is Murchison falls, it was amazing. The highlight of the trip was gorilla, we asked Prisca if she can adjust and we spend more days in Bwindi of which she did together with her team.
The accommodation was amazing, it was according to plan and we like mahogany safari lodge most in Bwindi. Thanks to our guide Christopher Muhumuza for giving us a great knowledge most especially about wildlife. We promised Azas Safaris Uganda more recommendations back home.

An awesome tour organisation with great attention to detail!
We climbed the mountain via the 7 day Lemosho route with Williamson Adventures and couldn't have been happier. We were happy from A-Z with the service and everything on the mountain.
In our opinion, there are many aspects that could be done wrong but were done just right at Williamson Adventures.
One of many aspects would be the following:
- All of our porters had 5+ years experience on the mountain and didn't give up halfway or get demotivated because of lack of experience. The whole team was set up and paid fairly.
- Our guides knew exactly how to behave on the mountain (especially the Summit Push) as they have climbed the mountain over 100 times. Also, our guide once had to help another group use emergency oxygen, which shouldn't happen as everyone on the mountain should be trained to do that. Our guides were experienced and, unlike other groups, knew where the limits were on the mountain, which we find very important. The food is also adapted to the altitude (quantity, carbohydrates, fats and proteins). Every detail was taken care of and our whole group made it up the mountain and we were completely satisfied!
Thanks to the whole team and organisation to make that dream come true! :)

Professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating
We had a phenomenal time and our drivers Jose and William were fantastic. We saw the Big 5 and even saw a cheetah take down a gazelle. Truly a once in a lifetime experience. Our drivers for the Kenyan part of the trip in Mason Mari we’re also wonderful (Jeff and Stanley)

Professional and friendly.
Gasper was exactly the guide we wanted. We have 12 and 15 year old boys. The older is very quiet and younger is very talkative. A 6 day safari is a lot of togetherness and Gasper managed us well. There are many competent, professional guides, but the special ones feel more like a friend by the end. Gasper is that kind of guide. Patient answering all the questions a 12 year old can think of, even the repeat ones. Funny, informative, and a clear passion for the work. He loves it and it’s very obvious. Thanks, again Gasper for an incredible experience.

Fantastic expirence
Great safari experiencie. I travel between the Amboseli Park,lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara. Amboseli is fantastic to enjoy the elephants. Great views of the Kilimanjaro on a clear day. Long drives between the Parks, i recomended to fly if you can. The roads are not great and very busy.
The lodges at the parks were fantastic,people are super friendly. As a solo female travaller i felt safe but under presure from the local to buy things.
Beautiful country highly recommend it.

Duma Explorer staff professional, personable, passionate, and expert.
We used Duma to plan a 10 day private safari in Tanzania. We had never been on a safari before and we had never been to Africa. Thank goodness for their expert guidance in putting this trip together! They guided us to plan the ultimate itinerary. They respond lightning fast and answer every silly question. On the ground, our guide Ebeneezer Kilepo handled absolutely everything so that we could just sit back and enjoy the exerience. He is professional and incredibly knowledgeable but at the same time fun and funny. The accommodations that Duma recommended were all impeccable. We saw more animals than we ever could have expected, more up close than we expected and more active than we expected. Ebeneezer is an amazing spotter and knows literally everything about flora, fauna and geology (or at least it seemed to me). I literally have no critiques at all of this experience. We chose Duma because our friends had used them in the past (they also had Ebeneezer as their guide) and we are so glad that we did.

Lion King is the king of safari operators! Best in the Serengeti and all of Tanzania!
From the moment we booked with Lion King we knew we were in for a special experience. They had been wonderful in assisting us through the decision process, and so we were excited to be assigned Fred Elias for our safari. Looking at his other reviews it was clear he’s one of the great guides in Tanzania. What was a surprise was just how warm and kind and caring he would be for us as we were out in the bush. He was incredible at making sure our vehicle was clean and comfortable so that every morning was a joy as we piled into the beautiful Land Cruiser for another long day of viewing wildlife. He helped us in every way and to say he was able to do all this maintenance and still be at the top of his game in finding wildlife is an understatement. Time and again he found animals, I kid you not, that were behind rocks or trees (can he see through solid objects?). His incredible sense for where animals would be was invaluable to us having a special experience and seeing more animals in more interesting scenes than others. So much so that it was regular for us to be looking at animals all alone and then five minutes later to be swarmed by guides trying to follow Freddie to see what we were seeing. It was a joy and a treasure chest of memories we’ll playback for a lifetime - and all of it was thanks to the way Freddie made us feel at home in the wildest of places.

An amazing Uganda safari experience that exceeded expectations in every way!
Wild Excursions Uganda provided a truly wonderful safari experience! During our 2 day safari my group was able to see Murchison Falls National Park and a ton of elephants, hippos, giraffes, warthogs, lions, crocodiles, etc...!!! Our guide was fun and knowledgeable and made sure we always felt comfortable and safe - from providing us with plenty of water and only stopping at places that were safe with clean bathrooms on the drive there and back to letting us take as long as we wanted watching the animals and answering our many questions. The owner, Franklin, makes sure that everyone is well taken care of and having a great time. A large portion of the safari profits go to Jungle Medical Missions which brings healthcare to rural areas of Uganda that are vulnerable and underserved. So not only do you get an incredible, customized safari experience with Wild Excursions Uganda, you also help provide life-saving healthcare to those most in need. We also enjoyed the bush breakfast on our 2nd day and I highly recommend it! They provided a delicious meal in a beautiful setting on the banks of the Nile River. Uganda is filled with friendly, welcoming people and Franklin and his team do a great job of representing and sharing their country. I cannot wait to schedule my next trip with them!
