This safari was a perfect
"Traveling with kids can be challenging, but Obag Africa Safaris made it easy and enjoyable. Our guide was Very Professional, engaging, and made sure our kids had fun while learning about wildlife. The accommodations were family-friendly, and there were plenty of activities for everyone. This safari was a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation for our whole family!

Exceeded my expectations
I was a bit anxious to book a safari tour via email, especially with a down payment, but the great reviews convinced me. Jocky Tours was fast to reply and answered all my questions.
On the day of the tour I was greeted (punctually) by a friendly driver who brought me to their office for payment after which we proceeded to the safari vehicle. Our guide was Kikitu and we set off in group to Masaai Mara.
I had booked the 5 day budget safari and it far exceeded my expectations. This was mostly due to our excellent guide Kikitu who made sure we were entertained and had an amazing trip! When our first day did not go fully as planned due to unforeseen circumstances (road blocked) he made sure we were fed (as we were not able to reach our lunch spot) and when we did reach our destination he made sure we still had a wonderful evening. The rest of the week he gave us a premium experience with humor, interesting knowledge, making sure we saw the Big Five and a big smile.
Personally I did have high expectations for the accommodations as this was a budget tour but we had three meals a day, very decent accommodations and we definitely got value for our money. The meals were buffet with similar options yet enough variation to keep you satisfied.
The car was cleaned daily with a box stocked with water. I always felt safe during our drives even though the roads were bumpy (especially towards Masaai Mara), our guide was definitely an experienced driver.
The only “negative” I have to note is that we had one day solely dedicated to a long drive, but then again it was also a welcome rest as we woke up early most days and we had a very active and long day the day before.

Reliable and up to our expectations
We did a 5 day Safari (group of 6) through Tarangire, The Serengeti and Ngorongoro and were delighted with the service; great food, great insights from our guide Solomon, and very efficient and rapid communication with Gadiel to organize everything through WhatsApp. He even helped us arrange our onward travel to Nairobi. Would warmly recommend Good One Tours for your time in Tanzania's national parks!

Reliable company with friendly, professional people
We had a wonderful unforgettable trip to Tanzania thanks to Royal Tiger Tours. Contact with John, who arranged our trip, was very good. John was friendly, gave good advice, thought along and answered our questions quickly via email/app. We booked the trip from the Netherlands and paid in advance in US dollars via the Revolut app. We found that quite exciting, but it worked fine and everything was well arranged when we arrived in Tanzania. We visited Tarangire Park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti. All parks were beautiful in their own way. We saw many animals, including the big 5. Our guide/driver Ludovic was very friendly, helpful and professional. He was a good driver (who did not take any risks) and knew how to quickly spot the animals from a great distance. The lodges and tents where we slept were neat and the food was well prepared and delicious. Royal Tiger Tours is a reliable company with good service and with which you can make direct arrangements.

Trip of a lifetime!
My husband and I booked a 10 day (Kenya, Tanzania, and Beach Break) Safari with Tapestry of Africa and the experience was nothing less than UNFORGETTABLE. It totally exceeded our expectations from start to finish.
At first we were hesitant because we couldn't find much information and/or reviews about the Company, but we decided to give it a try, and as soon as we reached out for a quote, Mathew replied very quickly and answered all our questions very professionally. Mathew helped us organize an unforgettable trip according to our wishes providing all necessary information and willingness to help. Overall was a Great Value for Money.
One other thing that caught our attention about Tapestry of Africa was that they support local communities by contributing a portion of every Safari to the Dental Outreach Relief Foundation. 🤍🤍🤍
The safari itself was AMAZING, hitting many incredible spots around Kenya and Tanzania. The Lodges and camps booked, were all beautiful with stunning views, good food, and excellent service.
We saw the Big Five and many more animals including hyenas, cheetahs, dik-diks, and countless birds, among others. We ware amazed with the close encounters with elephants, giraffes, serval, lions and more.
There are so many highlights to this trip, that if I write them all everybody will get tired of reading, so I'm going to mention three of them:
1) we witnessed a "lions wedding" (unexpected 😂),
2) Wildebeest Crossing (a wish come true 🤍),
and 3) the Hot Air Balloon Ride (#miracleexperience this is A Most to do 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻).
We want to give special Thanks to Albert, who accompanied us all the way from Kenya to Tanzania. It was a real pleasure his company. Also we want to thank our guides, Francis from Kenya and Vincent from Tanzania. They both where great guides and made this adventure even better.
We are more than happy that we gave the opportunity to Tapestry of Africa. This has been a trip of a lifetime and we can't recommend them enough.
To New Adventures!

Mugisha was attentive, flexible, exceptionally knowledgeable and made my safari fantastic !
Mugisha at TrueVine Safaris was an exceptional, knowledgeable, flexible, and attentive guide. He is a super nice fellow, loves to chat, his service was impeccable, I learned so much about Uganda and Rwanda, and I saw so many wonderful things during my 3 day safari. The mountain gorilla trek in Bwindi was a once in a lifetime experience to get so close and the golden monkeys in Rwanda were in a real treat. The scenery and mountains in Uganda were an amazing surprise and I cannot wait to go back an explore more.
His service was excellent and the tour was great value as we got the mountain gorilla passes to visit in Uganda vs. the more expensive passes in Rwanda. My interactions with Mugisha before, during and even after the safari were always prompt, flexible, and full of valuable information about the itinerary, costs, what to bring, etc.
I will definitely be a repeat customer and want to see several other parks in Uganda with Mugisha at TrueVine as a guide.
