Lifetime Experience Safaris lives up to its name!
Lifetime Experience Safaris is superb. Jesse-Tom is great to deal with by e-mail in the planning stage. He answers promptly and thoroughly. He offers genuine advice in tailoring your safari.
Sula is an excellent driver,guide, and friend, who covered the sometimes long distances and rough roads in the Land Cruiser safely, and stayed a day ahead in constantly reconfirming plans. At the national parks he found the best guides. He has all their numbers, everybody knows him. It meant that the rangers with us were very knowledgeable. Sula is not called the leopard man for nothing. In 12 days I saw 4.
Meanwhile Jesse-Tom checked regularly to ensure all was going well. At Lifetime Experiences they value their reputation. They genuinely want tourists to have a great time. All the care meant there was nothing to do but enjoy.
We visited Ziwa, Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi, Mgahinga and Lake Mburo. All are excellent. I also liked the accommodation Jesse-Tom booked. When I asked, he also organised a night at the Ihamba residence so I could visit a Batwa community at a reasonable price. It was a highlight.
Jesse-Tom and Sula also helped organise the Covid 19 PCR test in Kampala needed to leave Uganda, even though our tour ended several days earlier. It was convenient and easy.
In planning any safari it is difficult to know who to trust. Lifetime Experience Safaris delivers. They will do their best to live up to their name. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Amazing Safari
I just had a three days amazing Safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro national parks with Suricata Safaris. From start to end, everything was really great. We first thought that we would be lucky if we could see lions and one or two other fantastic animals, and we endend up seeing not only so many lions in so many different settings, but also buffalos, hyenas, elephants, so many other animals, and even rhinos and a last minute leopard ! We could not believe we caught a good sighting of them all, especially knowing how rare it is to see rhinos and leopards in the wild. Thanks Hillary for the organisation and thanks Mandela the guide for taking us to the best spots and showing us where to look, I would definitely recommend this experience to any nature and wildlife lover.

Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro
Loved the experience. We met Hillary, Suricata’s boss, in person so that he could brief us on what to expect. Everything was easy and smooth; we joined a group and enjoyed the complete experience. Everything is well organised; good food, good sleep, great guide (thanks Mandela!). We got plenty of time to admire Tanzania’s wildlife, Mandela made sure we were making the most of every encounter. Don’t hesitate!

We Endorse African Sunrise Travel
We traveled with African Sunrise Travel to Tanzania. Amos the owner assisted us with the plans and everything worked out perfectly. He made all the arrangements in Tanzania from transfers, accommodation and all the activities.
Our guide was Anderson. He showed us lots of animals including some memorable encounters like a cheetah on our vehicle, lions mating, hyenas fighting off vultures over carrion, elephants crossing Tarangire river, rhinos in Ngorongoro…… We loved that Anderson is a birding enthusiast like us and we enjoyed watching so many different bird’s species.
It’s been great all the way with African Sunrise and we have no reservations recommending them to fellow travelers.

A fantastic spontaneous trip to Tanzania with geoDiscovery Tours
Every day was a really great, new and exciting experience for me!
Whether it was the wonderful rainforests in the Arusha National Park, which finally led us to the highest point of the over 4500 m high volcano Mt. Meru, or the very unusual trek that started in the early morning to the roof of Africa at 5895m, the Kilimanjaro/Kibo - they were all unforgettable moments.
The relaxation days in the beautiful Ilburo Lodge in Arusha with its excellent cook and the other lovely and friendly people there contributed to the success of this trip as well as the final safari through the Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater , their extraordinary safari lodges and the overwhelming wildlife viewing opportunities.
Dear geoDiscovery Tours team, only through your professional planning and your friendly interaction with me, this trip could be so successful and I will always remember it. Thanks one more time for this unforgettable holiday!

Unforgettable experience
The safari experience was just excellent, even better than I had expected! Everything went smoothly, and our guide Jonas made the journey to a real adventure. I really wish everyone to do a safari trip at least once in a lifetime and necessarily with Fig Tree Tours. Thank you very much!

Really enjoyed
Everything was well executed, the guide was on time to pick us up from the hotel. The weather was favorable, it rained a few times. The nature is incredibly beautiful. Our guide and driver was really on top, taking us there and back even though the flooded river was an obstacle. Due to the rains, we face some difficulties on the road. The accommodation was ok, the food could have been better.Really enjoyed there saffari service.

EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION AND GOOD SAFARI GUIDES
We booked our 10 days safari with Gorillas to Uganda with Christopher from African Rock Safaris LTD on last minute!
Big thanks to the team for being patient and excellently communicating to me, given the “so many questions” me and my group had as this was our first time to Uganda and East Africa in general.
The tour options they offered were so tidy and detailed and with very competitive prices compared to what other operators were offering online.
We really acknowledge the choices of the lodges/hotels Christopher chose for us, all with great hospitality and location and amongst them, we liked Via Via Guest house in Entebbe, Mpogo lodge in Lake Mburo National park, Pumba Safari Cottages in Queen Elizabeth National park and Ride 4 a Woman in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National park.
Our driver guide Ceasar was on a platinum level as he knew all the wildlife in each National park, was very accommodative to each of us and spoke excellent English! I would really recommend him.
Overall, our trip amidst all the COVID-19 scuffle was a once in a lifetime adventure with the major highlights being; Getting to do Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National park, a walking Safari and getting up close with Giraffes and Zebras in Lake Mburo National park and finally the playful Chimpanzees in Kalinzu forest.
Thanks so much Christopher and the African Rock Safari team & will share your website to all our friends.
