Seven days safari in kenya
the trip has exceeded expectations. The organization has been perfect, from the first moment we have felt very Agustí with our guide, Jonathan Maina, who has made it possible for us to see the Big Five and practically all the mammals and birds that we wanted to see on this trip. Masai Mara is a mythical place that you cannot miss, and Amboseli in a special place, on the slope of Kilimanjaro. We came here to be able to photograph the Gerenuk, and we have succeeded, with Maina everything is possible. You can see photos on my Instagram profile @gzlwildlife

Splendid
A trip to the maasai Mara was the best experience ever. I had a nice time with my family as I enjoyed watching the various animal species and birds. Much thanks to Esther the director of Arboreal Safaris who ensured the trip was a success

Friendly and easy to talk to. He made our tour so much comfortable.
Spirited!. An experience that would be engraved in our book of good memories. My 3 year old had the most fun! It was rejuvenating...looking forward to booking another one.

It was a unique experience we did a The National Parc Ngorongoro was the most beautifull thing we saw.
The Tour operator (Fred) spoke very good English.

The best ones in Tanzania
We had an incredible experience with the company since we arrived to Tanzania. Every aspect of our trip was taken care of, they were waiting for us at the airport, make sure everything was alright at our hotel. Very punctual and attentive to our needs. We felt very safe with them! Our tour guide knew a lot not only about the safaris themselves but also gave us facts about the people, culture, etc. I totally recommend the tour!!

Five star service and facilities with affordable price
We had a 10-day safari with Gosheni in end of Sept. I have to say everything is just perfect and it will be my lifelong memory. When I searched agencies, I compared price and service among many of them and finally Gosheni gave me the most reasonable plan and quotation.
During the safari, we were happy to find out that we did enjoy the best in class service and facilities. All the accommodations were luxury and comfortable with perfect service. The car was very new and in perfect condition (it even had picnic shades and tables and chairs which made our lunch in Ngorogoro is exceptionally comfortable). All lunch are actually proper lunch with table setting,3-course meal and even beer and wines! We were extremely flattered when first time seeing it while most of other visitors were having their sandwiches lunch box.
Our guide William was very experienced and knowledgeable. He always tirelessly drove us all around and spotted the animals which we were impossible to see by ourselves! He was charming, considerate and patient. I can’t imaging anyone could be better! With his help, We have seen almost all animals in our safari and some of them were super rare!
I highly recommend Gosheni to all my friends who would like to enjoy a five-star service and memorable safari with affordable price.

Our itinerary included:

- Airport transfer to domestic flight on Aerolink to Kihihi airstrip
- Two nights stay at Bohuma Haven lodge
- Gorilla trekking after first night
- Overland transport back to Entebbe after night two
- PCR testing upon arrival in Entebbe
- Stay at a hotel of our choice (which we booked separately) and departure the next day
Review:
I’ll start with pre-trip coordination…
The number one reason why we chose Achieve Global Safaris (AGS) was because of a personal communication we received in the months and weeks leading up to the trip. Jolie responded to many many questions, from flight itineraries, visas, what to bring, and so on. Flying to a new part of the world comes with some level of anxiety of the unknown, but by getting to know someone before booking and departing, it really eased my conscience. Especially the payment structure, because it is unfamiliar to a Canadian. We used direct bank to bank transfer from RBC to their ‘Equity Bank’ in two instalments (make sure to add 2% to cover the transaction fees).
To help you gain the same level of comfort as we had, you just download and use WhatsApp. It is what everyone in Uganda uses, and how I communicated with Jolie ahead of time.
Accommodation…
We stayed at the community operated Bohuma Haven lodge. This place was BEAUTIFUL. It had majestic mountain views, quiet and serene atmosphere. It is not a resort, so don’t expect that, rather expect a natural and humbling setting to sit back, sip a beer and unwind after trekking. They staff were also incredibly attentive, as if you are at an actual resort. No complaints about the food either. Actually, we had steak on our second night, which we were able to cut with a butter knife. Sooo good.
Transportation….
We flew from the Entebbe airport to Kihihi. This was a treat to see Uganda from above. The international airport is chaotic, so I highly recommend to coordinate with Aerolink about your arrival and connection. We had someone meet us at the gate and guide us through the entire process, which is a process. Seriously, ask for help, especially if there is limited time between flights because there are multiple security checkpoints.
We travelled overland back to Entebbe at the conclusion of our trip. To be honest, it is a long drive, with a couple hours of rugged/non-paved roads. For me, someone from the countryside, I found it rewarding and enlightening to see the beauty of Uganda from land. For my wife, the trip was too long. So consider your options and your level of comfort for long drives. That said, we had an amazing guide, Eddie. His charm and demeanour was pleasant and comforting. He stopped frequently for breaks, made up for lost time where he could, smiled and laughed the whole way, and got us to our destination with time to complete a PCR test before checking into our hotel. Thanks Eddie!
PCR testing was easy. Go to test and fly, pay the fee, get tested and wait for the results. Our tests took about three hours. Here is the number for Safari Lab/testing: +256 702 199000
Finally, would I do this again? - yes, hopefully next time with kids.

Dallago Tours is the right safari company
Wow! I am so happy we booked our Kenya and Tanzania safari with this company. From the start, the process of booking is easy. Their consultant Evans was easy to work with and helped us understand the best package that would combine Kenya and Tanzania. What we experience was high quality and professional services. They have great drivers, who interacted with us so well throughout the safari. It was a seamless experience crossing from Maasai Mara Kenya to Serengeti Tanzania. Africa is surely a beautiful place. We saw countless lions, cheetahs, wildebeest, elephants and more. The elephants at Amboseli are the biggest. It was worth it and will do it again.

Best experience of my life
My boyfriend and I chose the 4 day Selous Safari and we couldn't have had better. The whole experience was mindblowing, we saw so many animals: lions, monkeys, impalas, elephants, giraffes and so many more! The lodge was super cute and very comfortable, the food was delicious and our hosts made us feel at home. I highly recommend Safari Bookings for unforgettable moments and unique activities
