This company cares!
5/5

We had safari with Aardwolf in Masai Mara 29 September - 2 October.

When I was choosing among different companies for safari I noticed that Aardwolf has less reviews than some other companies, so I was hesitant about booking with Aardwolf. But when I firstly came into contact with Verah it was excellent communication. All questions answered professional and she was the only manager among those whom I've contacted, who wasn't trying to fit me in template schedule but was eager to help us choose the best options for us. Also what I like about her - she remembers everything you say: I've asked for binoculars, and she offered to give me one for free and didn't forget that. I've ordered food "no spicy" and didn't had to mention it any more - everyone along my route was notified about my food preferences. Excellent work for a manager!

Now about our guide. Julius is fantastic guide! I had a lot of trips in my life - Amazon, Galapagoss, Indonesia, and he is surely one of the best. In 3 days we have seen everything: leopard - twice! Cheetah - twice! Lions - three times. Hunting lion - also done! Of course a lot of giraffes, antelopes, zebras. More important - he loves his job and cares about environment and people around. I will remember when he just suddenly stopped our car in the savanna where many cars passed before just to pick up a can thrown by somebody. It makes difference! Also he has a lot to tell about wildlife. Very good man, excellent guide and experienced driver.

We definitely recommend Aardwolf, Verah and Julius for everybody doing safari!

A wonderful weekend Safari, short on time but big on adventure !
5/5

The communication and response times were excellent. I had decided at relatively short notice that I would like to do a weekend Safari whilst in Uganda for work. The Kombi nation team were proactive, informative and extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble.

The Safari itself, was a wonderful experience. Starting with the Game Park at Murchison Falls, I had the opportunity to see and experience some of the worlds most beautiful wildlife. We even managed to spot a Lion and a Leopard !

The highlight for me was definitely to be found on day 2 - a river cruise on the Nile to see Hippos, Crocodiles and all of the amazing birds. At the end of the river cruise, the beautiful and powerful Murchison falls.

Isaac - my Kombi Tour Guide was exceptional. Professional, personable and most of a lot of fun and a very safe driver !

I highly recommend any adventure with Kombi Tours.

very experienced for realise individual tours
5/5

I work as a travel photographer and travel individually according to my own travel plan. For this I always book an off-road vehicle or safari vehicle with a very experienced and well-spoken driver, driver guide. I travelled 6000 km in 30 days through Kenya and the north of Tanzania, also in the not well developed north of Kenya at Lake Turkana. Maurice from Spotkenya Safari has provided me with very good drivers and off-road vehicles and has always found a good solution for problems that have occurred in the meantime. I can absolutely recommend Maurice and his team.

Outstanding!
5/5

Bespoke safari and Shabani have been nothing but the best in the service they offered!

Punctual at the airport pick up and drop off at the hotel for the first night, guide/driver Richard and cook Gideon are very well versed around the park/crater and just absolutely delightful to be around. Everyone involved has done everything possible to make this safari the best we ever experience and they have definitely succeeded. Honestly I cannot find anything to complain about even if I wanted to.

And all for a reasonable price! I was more than happy to support a local agency too.

Once again thank you to Bespoke, Shabani, Richard, Gideon and the good folks at the Raha Leo Inn.

Exceptional Customer Service
5/5

Although I wasn't able to go on safari with Gametrackers due to a last minute injury, having used several other Kenyan tour operators in the past, I am compelled to write about Gametrackers' exceptional customer service.

Being a lone traveller with specific needs makes it quite difficult to find a suitable group to join. I got in touch with several Kenyan tour operators and Stacey was always the quickest to respond to my numerous queries and never lost patience with me either. Gametrackers also provided me with the only working solution to go on safari. The other operators just weren't flexible enough to accommodate a single traveller at a reasonable fee.

My preference is to get off the beaten track and knowing the Mara extremely well, I talked to George our guide before committing to going on safari. George had excellent knowledge of all the areas I was interested in visiting and he was extremely polite.

Unfortunately on the day before the safari I hurt my back and I was unable to travel. Even with the last minute withdrawal, Stacey, Rufus and George were caring and understanding. I was touched by their genuine concern and well wishes. I will not hesitate to use Gametrackers in the future and recommend them highly.

Easy booking and very good communications
5/5

Esther at Let's Go handled our booking and did a perfect job getting us exactly the dates and location we wanted. The price was also better than what was publicly available on the booking websites. Thanks so much!

Simply The BEST
5/5

Impala is the only way to go! This was our second, extended journey around Africa and, once again, our expectations were far exceeded. Last time we visited Namibia, Botswana & Zimbabwe, this time Namibia & South Africa; both trips were amazing and full of breathtaking variety. André (from Impala) put together the most amazing itinerary and every stop was a delight. He seems to know what we want and then find something even better; he also knows what we need before we know that we need it; every aspect is taken care of.
I've recommended Impala to dozens of people and we're already planning a return visit.
Thanks André, for another memorable and delightful journey.

The experience was like a road trip with friends rather than a tour- full of snacks, jokes & sights!
5/5

Traveling with GoExplore Safaris was the best choice I could have made. I was traveling alone to Uganda, and I was a little nervous when planning the trip. On top of planning a fantastic trip for the three days, I booked them for; they also ensured the transportation and the activities that I had scheduled for the other four days were safe and quality places. Furthermore, When planning the trip, he communicated over whats app and would respond in minutes to any of the million questions that I had.

Overall this trip exceeded my expectations. As a recent college grad I was on a limited budget, but with their help, I was able to go to botanical gardens, go to the swamp on Lake Victoria and see a shoebill, see gorillas, go on a village tour and go white water rafting. Even along the road as we drove there were terrific views overlooking the gorgeous country of Uganda. Lastly, the trip was like a road with old friends. We ate snacks, listened to fun music, and by the last day were cracking up at inside jokes. We might have started as businessmen and client, but by the end of the trip, we all left as friends. Thanks for the fantastic trip guys! You are amazing
