Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and safari
I and friends climbed Mt Kilimanjaro, it was a great experience. The teams created by Karibu Adventure was absolutely fantastic. Knowledge and enthusiasm was great. Everything was arranged in good order and the guides and Porter's guides us to the top brilliant. Safety and summit (top of Kilimanjaro) was always on the first place. After the climb we had a safari for 5 days with a fantastic driver from Tumain. He guides us through 4 national parks and showed us the big 5. I can recommend Karibu Adventure to everybody who wants to have the experience of their lifetime.

4 weeks unforgettable experiences.
We would like to thank you again for the good planning of our four-week trip through Uganda. The selection of individual stations and accommodations was in line with our expectations.
We have been able to enjoy the „pearl of Africa“ to the fullest.
A real lucky grip was our female guide Donah. Thanks to her good contacts and her open nature, she has made Africa very inappropriate for us. Thanks to her exellent specialist knowledge, we had a deep insight into the flora, fauna and african culture. She has brought us ugandien lifestil with her lovely people.
During this long journey together, we were perfectly supervised by her. We enjoy our trip in total.
We will certainly visit Uganda again through this great experience.
We came as guests and went as friends.

Very helpfull and reliable team
We had three perfect safari days. First with Peter in Manyara, he told us a lot about all the birds. And the other two days with Mike in the crater and Tarangyre. He made all the efforts to show us so many different animals. And when the safari was over he made even more efforts to drop all the guests at there different, almost unfindable adresses. Staying optimistic and friendly all the time. It was a super first safari experience with Avocet for me and my daughter!

Very nice people and amazing safari!
Very nice people and amazing safari! The safari was far above my expectations. Before booking, Hilary was very fast answering my emails and everything was as planned with pre and post accomodations (hotel in Arusha is nice!). The tour guide and driver, Ezekiel, was very nice, responsive, and smart to spot almost every animal. The camping sites along Tarangire (great place and view), Serengeti (amazing nature), and Ngoronrogo (amazing nature). All of them were comfortable enough. Also, Salim prepared very tasty dishes for breakfast and dinners. Highly recommended!

Most Interesting travel agency specializing in Africa
I have already been on no less 17 safaris and have visited Chad,Ethiopia, Namibia,Uganda, and South Africa 3 times, Zambia 4,Zimbabwe 5, Tanzania 4, Botswana 4 as well as having taken various safaris in Kenya where I reside. I must say that I have worked with various travel agencies which specialize in safaris;nevertheless the best I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with is Chalo Africa. They specialize in tailor made safaris and will go anywhere which you'd like. It's thanks to Sangeeta Prasad that I have made some of my most extraordinary safaris. I have visited Zakouma National Park in Chad,Gonorezhou National Park in Zimbabwe, as well as my visit earlier this year to Ethiopia.
I have to say that my visit to Omo National Park which Chalo Africa arranged to the Mursi and Surma tribes was the most astonishing cultural experience which I've ever had in Africa. I also couldn't believe flying overlooking the vast emptiness Gambella National Park where there was only the 6 of us,our guide,pilot and co-pilot.We saw thousands of white-eared kob and Nile lechwe. It was literally mind blowing. I also went to the Bale Mountain National Park where I saw the Ethiopian wolf the world's rarest canid, Mountain Nyala, Menelik's Bushbuck, Bohor bushbuck and the mountain reedbuck.I also found the Ali Deghe Game Reserve interesting because I saw sommerlings gazelle and grevy's zebra.
Earlier this year when I visited Zimbabwe,Zambia,Malawi and Botswana I have to say Chalo Africa did a superb job.They offer the most competitive pricing as well as excellent back up service.I am so impressed with Chalo Africa that I am taking two trips,one to Gabon and another to Uganda next year.

Great tour company, everything well organised
We booked by email for the Gorilla tour in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda through Rwanda. Paid for the tour through EFT and everything was organised as agreed. We were promptly picked at the airport in Kigali by our very capable driver, Jason and driven safely through the border to Uganda. Everything had been previously organised and accommodation and meals were inclusive for the 3-day tour. Chris had provided a list of things to carry for the tour but we were still unprepared for the water and mud we encountered in the forest so I would suggest that if you are doing a trekking safari in Bwindi, during the rainy season, please carry your gumboots/wellingtons/goloshes that go all the way up to the knee.
I would use this tour company again. They are great!

Excellent Safari Company, A lifetime experience
Just letting you know that we had a great time, in fact all of our arrangements exceeded our expectations. All of the transfers proceeded faultlessly and the staff from the two local agents in Nairobi and Zanzibar were fantastic, please pass on our compliments, especially to Ali from Twiga in Nairobi, and Exhaud & Fish from Hakims in Zanzibar. We felt safe at the Stanley in Nairobi and the Serena in Stone Town is a charming hotel. Our safaris in Kenya at Elephant Bedroom camp and Mara Leisure camp were a great choice, we are raving to our friends about the accommodation, the locations, the food, the game drives, the guides, the vehicles and of course the animals. It was nice to finish at the 5 star Smile Beach Resort, we felt like movie-stars. Swimming with dolphins was a bonus. Thank you for organising a perfect holiday!
