Always quick to respond, organised, helpful and creative.
We travelled with Jumbari recently to South Africa and highly recommend their service. They knew exactly which lodges in the Kruger would work best for my girlfirend, daughter and I, and in Cape Town their hotel recommendation was perfect. Judy was particularly helpful in terms of co-ordinating a babysitter for one of our nights and she also helped make fun plans for our toddler! It was a great experience and I'm glad we used a family specialist.

Extremely well planned tour with awesome and knowledgable guideculminating in the trip of a lifetime
From: A 50 year old man... ( please note we visited 5 parks over 11 days driving 1800 Km)
Thank you for the most amazing trip you organised for my family. It
was my 50th birthday on the 20th of Feb so we came to Kenya to
celebrate that and to spend time seeing the beautiful animals your
country has. I must say that you delivered on all levels way above any
expectations any of us could have had. On top of providing our best
holiday experience you provided us with David our guide. He truly is
exceptional! He has educated us as a family about your amazing
country, animals, people and politics, and for him I cannot thank you
enough!! He has spent 11 days with us and has become a part of our
family. We will not forget him, his comments, your animals or your
country. We are very privileged to have spent time with David here in
Kenya. He is a real asset to your company and I hope you value his commitment fully ! !
I will share with you the reviews separately from our two children below.
From my 16 year old daughter
This trip was by far the best out of all the trips I’ve ever gone on.
We where lucky enough to see the big five and so much more. There’s
not a lot that we didn’t get to see. But I don’t think it was only
luck. It was also based on the fact that our guide David was so
amazing. I’m really thankful for him because he made this trip
eventful, educational and just fantastic. Not only did we see loads of
incredible animals, we got to see Kenya and how Kenyan people live.
I’m really happy about all the places we stayed at too. I didn’t mind
the long drives between hotels because that made sure that we got to
see a lot of different types of habitats and animals. It was a very
well balanced vacation. Everyone here is so kind and lovely and I really hope to come back to Kenya in the future.
From my 12 year old son:
David has been a really good driver and I have learnt a lot about
Kenya too. He doesn’t just talk when we are in the park. He talks all
the time teaching us about Kenya and the people who live here. David
is very funny and he is very nice. The safari was very good I loved
it. We saw the big five. That was what I wanted to see. I love all the
people, they are very nice and I love the countryside and I love the
parks. I love Kenya. I hope we come back again. Thank you (Asante).

Accommodating, friendly and trustworthy to a tee!
If I could sum up my satisfaction with Orange Adventures in one word, I'd probably say 'trust'. Often, when travelling, there can be a fear that locals are over-pricing activities, or giving you the so-called European price. With Orange, that was never the case. I was visiting a friend that lives in Kenya, so he was able to verify that all the prices were fair and, even if he hadn't been around, Elisha always offered a breakdown of the services and trusted us to respect the profit margin, which was completely reasonable. Once someone begins with that level of trust and mutual respect, it makes the entire process very easy.
Elisha was able to give us recommendations, personally ensured that a number of our day outings ran smoothly, and always checked in - constantly - to make sure that we were happy. Wonderfully, he managed to strike the perfect balance between present and unobtrusive. My friend had mentioned to him things that I might like doing, and he proposed a whole programme from which we could pick-and-choose. Everything was priced separately as well, so we weren't forced into a package (which other tour companies sometimes will not stick to).
Orange Adventures are an honest, trustworthy company that will not leave you stranded. Their head, Elisha, is ridiculously friendly and very professional. Personally, I cannot recommend them enough!

Amazing, beautiful wildlife of Uganda with Gorilla Tours
Dear Racheal,
I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for organizing our lovely safari trip and visit to Uganda.
We learned a bit more about the community, culture, similarities, differences and of course the amazing, beautiful wildlife. The wildlife is incredible and we enjoyed to see rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, elephants, lions, giraffes, birds of all sizes, chimpanzees, and other beautiful creatures.
Many thanks to our driver and guide Musa! We enjoyed his company and he was very welcoming and knowledgeable. This will be a journey we will treasure. We loved our stay in Fort Murchison Lodge in Murchison falls park that was a good choice to spend the night. Also thank you for being flexible as we –quite last minute- decided to take another route to the eastern part of Uganda where we had to visit the coffee plantations for business purposes.
Thank you again and wishing you all the best,
Alexander, Daphne and Sophie

Me and my friends had a great experience with them, amazing fame drives and friendly guides!
Everything was great. They catered very much around our needs, expectations and budgetlevel. As a group of students we asked for adventure so we slept in tents in the actual parks with the animals litterally outside the tent! The guides where very friendly and warm and we learned a lot about Tanzania, and even some songs in swahili! The game drives where just what we could dream for - we saw everything - and small problems with the vehicles where quickly fixed. Food was also super nice, cooked by our own joining chef. We have kept good contact with the guide and even met up again when I went back to Kenya! Would recommend this to anyone looking for a genuine and amazing safary experience!

Humala River Lodge Experience
During early January 2019, my husband and I went on a Safari holiday, which was arranged by Go Touch Down Travel …. What an experience! It could not have been better. It was a trip of a lifetime – far more than our expectations. They had every day planned for us. There was a maximum of 6 people in each vehicle, ensuring that we were very comfortable.
We started our Safari at Humala River Lodge.We were met at the gate by our guide (Richard). We travelled to the Lodge in a safari vehicle, giving us our first game drive. Richard had a lovely sense of humor and patiently pointed out the animals and bush, telling us more about their habits. Arriving at the Lodge was an eye opener.
The accommodation was really great. We had our own very luxurious bungalow, surrounded by bush and on the river bank. It was wow inside – spacious and very comfortable and only a short distance from the main building.
The main building was beautifully furnished, and we had a very warm welcome, being briefed about what to expect. The meals were to die for – the chef certainly know what he was doing. The pub area created a great, relaxing atmosphere and encouraged chilling with new and old friends. We were also entertained at the bhoma by the staff singing and dancing around a bon fire, while having a real African braai.
Richard took us on two bush drives a day. One very early in the morning bringing us back just in time for a late brunch. Then we had time to relax and lull around the pool to be treated with a late lunch/finger snacks before going on another game drive, stopping for some drinks in the bush. A beautiful supper was served at 19h00 in the evening (once again the chef had outdone himself). Thereafter relaxing and mingling in the pub, sharing the sights of the day.
We were sad to leave Humala River Lodge after only 3 days.

It was a very great adventure, Antony was a great driver and he showed us the big five at our Game Drives.

We had a lot of special wishes line the dates of the beginning and the end and the place where we wanted to be picked up and all was possible and no Problem.
We enjoyed the journey very much
and would book every time again
with Tazama Africa Holidays.
