Outstanding and remarkable! No less
We’ve been through Tanzania’s main parks on a cat and crossing eight days journey that we did not want it to end.
Special thank you deserves to Mr. Emanuel Shirima, a driver superb and a ranger extraordinaire.
Above all, his calm and lovely charm, alongside a set of unique set of skills, really made this not only a journey, but a lifelong memory

Picking a company from the internet is tricky.luckily Classic journeys are Efficient and effective
Having lived in East Africa when we did our own independent safaris I was concerned that going on organised one would be a let down. It was not. Definitely the best holiday ever.
Our party was arriving from two different destinations both of which were efficiently met and taken to our first hotel.
The next day Good Luck met us and told us the program. There were one or two items which we were not happy with but he Phoned the office and the tour Was rearranged very quickly. I was impressed.
At every stage Good Luck was sensitive to our particular desires even when they weren’t particularly addressed to him.
At one point I just remarked to the others I didn’t like being with all the other vehicles.
Good luck must’ve heard and he took us off the beaten track to watch a leopard in a tree. We were the only people there.
We were interest In the birds But not very knowledgeable.
Good Luck was well prepared with a very good bird book , better than ours, And some excellent binoculars which he would lend us. I think we all expanded our knowledge.
The rains had been late so some of the tracks were very muddy but I had complete trust in Good Luck’s driving skills to get us through. All part of the adventure.
The company had chosen the hotels well . I wish we could have stayed longer in the tents in the Serengeti. That was my favourite place.
If we are ever able to go back I will certainly go with classic tours and specifically ask for Good Luck to be our guide.

Professional, detailed and excellent services and follow-up to see clients get the best.
My experience with Award tours has always been awesome.
They're reliable in their booking and reservations and will advise on the best hotels where you get value for your money.

Wonderful Sipi and pian upe Tour
I went on trip to sipi falls and pian upe game reserve with bright Safaris Uganda but it was more than our expectations after hiking the all 3 main water falls with a proffessional guide mike, we entere in the man made caves which were really beautiful, and also visited some vilages in pian upe foe cultural dancing.
We really loved this tour and enjoyed it to the fullest.
Bright safaris Uganda is highly recommended to everyone planing to go on a safari in uganda.
Thanks Meddy for giving us this memorable and owesome experience.

Awesome 3 day safari to Selous!
We did a 3 day safari to Selous with Kihindo Tours. It was amazing! One of our best experiences throughout all of our travels. The boat safari was fun and a nice intro to Selous. We travelled with 4 children (2, 4, 9, and 12) and they enjoyed cruising on the river looking at the wildlife. The highlight was definitely day 2 doing the all day safari drive. It was almost surreal! We saw lions, hyenas, giraffes, elephants, zebras, hippos, wild hogs, baboons, wildebeest, water buffalos, impalas, and much more. The walking safari was great as well, where we got educated on the plants and local uses of them. Our family would highly recommend Kihindo Tours! They are professional, knowledgeable, and overall great people. Thanks again Kihindo Tours! We hope to do more tours with you in the future.

I made it with Gecko Safaris
Gecko safaris are an excellent tour company to deal with. Right from the beginning our communications with Monica was easy and prompt. She had no problems modifying our tour to suit our needs better.
Once there, our driver/Guide Ben was excellent , He was very knowledge and personable. He made the long drives feel shorter. He would stop anytime we asked to take pictures and also when he saw things that he thought we would be interested in. Things that were interesting to us and that we would have missed without him.
Now for the tours. WOW. The chimps and gorillas are so magnificent. It is amazing how close they will come to you. The sounds of the chimps even before sighting them is super exciting!! The gorillas are so enjoyable to watch as they just do their own thing or sometimes even approach to get a closer look at you.
The swamp/community walk in Kibale is also a must do. The banana beer and home grown coffee are definitely a must. We did not get time to visit the doctor and the basket weaving homes.
Anyway, if you are nervous about booking such an expensive trip, please be advised that you will have absolutely no issues with Gecko Safaris.
If you can afford it time and money wise, book the extra gorilla day. You will want to see 2 different families as they are all different in behavior and appearances!
Thanks again to all the staff at Gecko Safaris

A Perfect Experience!
What can I say about this experience? This company lived up to every promise that it made. From the moment I began my interactions with Pendo at Gosheni Safaris, she made me feel as though every question that I had was the most important question in the world. She never acted once like she was in anyway not delighted to answer the questions. They catered the Safari to exactly what I needed and delivered on every promise. We were traveling with two older women, and every care was taken to see that their experience would be as smooth as possible. Our safari guide, William was more than we could have asked for. He went out of his way every day on very long game drives looking for exactly what we wanted to see and knew exactly where to find it all. He knew when we were getting to areas where he had seen specific animals before and would warn us to make sure we had our cameras at the ready. As I was filming for my YouTube Channel, MRNONREV, this was extremely important for me. Leaving William at the end of the Safari was like leaving a member of our family, by that time. I would eagerly return to Tanzania and use Gosheni Safaris again for another safari or to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Every single person I dealt with from Pendo to Peter to William was outstanding and I salute them for delivering on every promise.

David was a very friendly, humorous and professional tour operator.
Our family trip (6 members) started with the tour operator picking us right from our home and we then set off to Murchison Falls National Park. A beautiful hotel was booked for us right next to the park by the tour company and we rested after a lovely dinner. The next days of the week entailed park drives through the Murchison falls park to see all the beautiful wild animals; elephants, giraffes, lions to mention but a few, a boat cruise and a hike to see the river Nile falls at a very close range. My parents loved the trip and so did my younger siblings. It was a great trip for family bonding. I highly recommend Fahari Uganda Safaris to anyone who wants to book either a romantic trip or family trip within Uganda.
