Wildebeest Safaris LTD provided a tour that met every one of our expectations and at great value.
Wildebeest Safaris LTD responded to all our questions (via email) immediately and informatively. The guides assigned were personable and knowledgeable about the parks and animals that we wanted to see. They put us on the Big Five (including the elusive black rhino) as well as other species we had no idea we might see. The lodgings and meals were excellent. We have traveled extensively but this trip we both rate as the best of all - 'The trip of a lifetime'. Finally, this offering by Wildebeest Safaris LTD. was a great value, costing far less than other trips we considered that were similar. A minor negative was that a considerable amount of riding in the safari truck was involved. Considering the value this trip offered, this is a minor complaint indeed.

Trip of a lifetime!
Words cannot describe the emotional high we experienced while on safari. It was other worldly! The shear number of animals we saw was incredible and the fact that we could almost touch some of the animals was breathtaking. We could not have asked for a better trip. From our liaison Chip, to our guide Steph, to our tracker, the cooks, and waitstaff. Each and every employee was an absolute joy. Each employee provided the best care of our needs and you could tell that they loved their jobs. We had two, three hour safari rides each day. Each ride provided us with a zoology lesson on the animals and environment that was amazing. Our guide Steph is truly an amazing person and she taught and shared her passion with us all so much that we are forever changed by the experience. The food was amazing as well. There were a half dozen chefs that prepared the most amazing meals and dishes. Our rooms were amazing, from the oversized bed to the huge bathroom and shower, this was like a second honeymoon for my wife and I. A few animal highlights....leopards mating, lions feeding at night, elephant herds that passed us within 10 feet, hippos, rhinos, puff adder, so many species of birds, giraffes, wildebeests, kudu, impala, dwarf mongoose, and a dung beetle rolling his poop ball looking for a female to mate ;) But the highlight was on our last day. Four lions in the daylight out walking through the safari. Steph positioned the jeep so that they walked by us twice. They were within 6 feet. We could hardly breath. They were they most amazing animals. I still get filled with joy as I think about the experience. If you want to experience the most amazing trip choose Kanyezi Africa Safari. I will be taking my family back one day.

Great Adventures delivers on another great adventure!
I chose Great Adventures because they responded quickly to my inquiry, listened to what I wanted, and offered a custom package at a fair price. The tour itself exceeded my expectations. In the beginning, we considered our guide, Tolbert, to be courteous, reliable, informative,and professional. Now we think of him as friend. You're in good hands with Great Adventures Uganda.

They carefully plan and execute an amazing trip for all needs.
We were very pleased with the company and especially with the staff that we had direct contact with. The itinerary that Lisa put together for us as well as the hotels and special touches, like a quieter hotel away from the aircraft flight route, made our African safari and vacation a wonderful and memorable experience. We appreciated her attention to detail and quick replies across the 5 hour time difference. Our guides were all top notch, well informed and very pleasant to be around. After 2 missed flights in transit to Cape Town our first guide, Noel, suggested moving our half day morning tour to the afternoon to give us time to rest and the opportunity to shop because our suitcases were delayed for 24 hours. He was eager to show us his city and we delighted in the unique spots that he took us to for morning coffee and lunch. We also followed his recommendations for dinner and were not disappointed. The four places that we stayed at (from luxury apartment to safari lodge) were exceptional in quality and staffing. We felt cared for and comfortable in all places. Giltedge Africa exceeded our expectations and we will be recommending this company to our friends who will want to replicate our amazing journey from Cape Town to Livingstone.

Amazing tour with great guides!
We were in constant contact with Richard, the company owner, during our planning process of the trip. He was beyond helpful and quick to respond to any questions/concerns we had about traveling across the world to Uganda. We were also able to look at all of the different tours and Richard tailored a tour based on all of the sights and experiences that we wanted to do while in Uganda. Upon arrival at the airport in Entebbe, we were greeted warmly by our guide, Joan, and our driver for the trip, John. Everything from then on was close to perfect, making it the trip of a lifetime. We had excellent luck spotting many animals, from lions and giraffes to so many elephants we couldn't keep track. Joan and John were excellent at answering many of the questions that we had about the country and their culture, as well as their unbelievable animal spotting skills. All of the accommodations were wonderful, especially the Bush Lodge. Our trip ended with the gorilla tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. That was by far one of the most extraordinary things that we were able to experience. I highly recommend Mukisa Safaris.

High-end memorable safari from Nairobi to Kilimanjaro
The company organized a wonderful trip for us; all tailored for our needs and according to the dates that we were available. Sandy, our travel designer was always willing to help, providing the requested information on a timely manner.
Specially we would like to highlight the extraordinary work from our guide in Tanzania, Sadat.
He has been an extraordinary guide to us, very knowledgeable of the field and the wildlife all together. He has been very caring and patient during the entire trip, always willing to help and to make the most of our trip in terms of tracking animals; he has also been very diligent in driving safely even in the rough conditions of the roads; respectful, kind and a very warm person that has won our affection even after the trip is over, remembering him and our trip very dearly.

Super fun trip
We had an amazing trip, expertly planned by Clara and guided by Saidi. The excursion couldn't have been better. We had been so impressed with all of the Lodging, which was offered to us at a special price. We're in love with Tanzania its friendly people and vibrant culture. We came back with a ton of Tanzanian gifts from the cool art market in Arusha. All six of us intend to come back, and We'll spread the news to our friends and other family members about Tanzania
Thanks for everything.
