Excellent Gorilla Safaris
Me and My whole family planned for a trip to jungles of Uganda
For Gorilla Safaris on our vacations. Our tour organising company was Wild Jungle Trails. They provided us very intelligent and knowledgeable tour guide. He was over our expectations, he knows very much about Gorillas the best visiting places in Uganda. Accomodation was excellent. And, we also captured gorillas picture very closely because of our good tour guide. I would like to thanks Wildlife Jungle Trails for their excellent service. Thank you so much. I highly recommends them...

A breathtaking experience made possibe thanks to Wild Jungle trails safaris
I didn't book my gorilla permit early enough. Other travel agencies just offered me other dates, while Wild Jungle Trails Safaris went above and beyond to get me the permit for the specific date I wanted.
Communication was great as they always responded to my inquiries with as much details as needed, the same day they received my emails. The service was beyond expectations: Jack the Safari guide couldn't be more accommodating, helpful, patient and friendly. One of those who answered your questions and had a friendly chat when the guest felt like it, and who could leave you to your thoughts when you needed silence: just perfect, especially for a female solo-traveler.
The lodge was amazing, great service, sparkling clean, very good food, accommodation in a beautiful and quiet setting.
The tracking went very good and I was lucky to see all the gorilla family members together, after 80 minutes hike. They were kind enough to drop me off at a more convenient place than the one agreed upon before arrival, which saved me a lot of hassles with public transport.
The agent I booked through, Teresa, has always been extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend her and the company, if you want your experience to be hassle free while you are still in control of all details.

Fantastic Trip with Vimat Safari!!!
Vimat Safari was an amazing experience! The planning with Vincent was great as we had many questions and wanted to make sure our Safari was the schedule we wanted since we wanted to take advantage of every minute. Vincent from Vimat was kind, professional and accommodating to every need. The planning was perfect! We had our guide with Bonaface who was on time every morning he made sure we saw all the animals, personally my dream was to see Lions, cheetah and leopard.. I had no expectations as I know from previous Safari in South Africa that it’s not easy to spot the cats. Our guide did a phenomenal job as we saw 34 lions .. 10 cheetah and 2 leopards up close and personal. It was incredible!!!!!! This was the most amazing Safari experience I have ever had.. the car also had chargers for your the phone, drinks and snacks... super comfortable.. we did the private tour and it was worth every penny. I highly recommend Vimat Safari as they are well prepared, professional, accommodating with great experience to find the animals. The Safari did not disappoint.. they gave us a dream come true Safari!!! Tanzania!!! Wow!!!

Professional, caring and highly recommended Tour Operator
My girlfriend and I visited Tanzania and had MangiEmpire Tours Co. as our Tour Operators. The team was very professional and prompt right from initial responses and helped us tailor our itinerary based on what we wanted to see/do and our budget. Although we had reached out to 10+ operators, we picked MangiEMPIRE Tours because of their promptness, quoted prices and flexibility in terms of accommodating our preferences.
During the tour itself, the accommodation, the vehicle, the food and the team (guide and chef) were as described in the initial conversations and were actually critical to our having a great trip. The guide was fluent in English, very knowledgeable and most importantly keen to show us the best the Safari could offer which meant we didn't have to push him at any point. The chef was really kind and adjusted meals to our preferences and dietary restrictions.
They were both very professional and polite. Even after the trip, they had us visit the office and give feedback and suggestions, which was a really nice closing touch. All in all, Africa Safari is a wonderful trip and it was great to work with an experienced, professional and committed team that made sure it was all worth it. Definitely recommend them!

Memories and Stories for Life, with a Top Company!!!!
We went on a 4-day Safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti. We chose MangiEmpire Adventures Tanzania as they were highly recommended by friends, and they truly lived up to that glowing recommendation! Our guide was extremely welcoming, friendly, professional, patient, and knowledgeable. He always got us in great spots for photos, but was respectful of the animals and knew how to read their behaviors. As a very experienced guide and driver, we felt very safe at all times with Him. He truly loves and is passionate about Tanzania's people, culture, animals and landscapes. It was nice to be collected and dropped off at the airport by the same person -- he was a lovely friend by the end! Also, during the booking/planning stages, the Company staffs were very responsive and easy to communicate with, especially Nova; the Director. We would highly recommend MangiEmpire Tours Tanzania, for excellent guides, well-maintained vehicles and a high-standard Safari experience.

Excellent organization & communications with MangiEmpire Adventures Tanzania
We did a 5 days trip mid-range-Safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Lake Mayara. The organisation and communication with the office of MangiEMPIRE Safari was perfect and very easy. As we wanted to stay 3 nights in Serengeti (what we would suggest to everybody), the safari was customized easely and quickly according to our wishes special wishes. The Serengeti where we could see the "big migration of the wildebeests and the zebras" was definitely the highlight of the trip. We highly recommend this company to anyone. Our guide accompanied us and driver, which was a very pleasant company, showed us many sights and also took us off the beaten tracks.

The absolute best safari experience!
We wanted to thank Soul of Tanzania and our incredible guide for an unforgettable 4-days safari in Northern Tanzania! As a couple, we felt comfortable and well cared for the entire time. With our guide’s knowledge and experience, we were able to go directly to the best locations at the best time of day for wildlife viewing. The big animals were numerous and spectacular, but he took us beyond the Big 5 and was able to help us identify nearly 100 bird species as well! On the way he was entertaining us happily and helped fixing our logistical problems. For example, I left my camera battery charger behind at the hotel in Arusha. They had another company car pick it up and deliver it to us on safari the next day! Huge thanks to MangiEmpire Tours and our elite guide for making our trip 5 stars. I highly recommend this conservation-minded, experts and top company.

Second time booking with Rose Hipwood
This is my second adventure organized by Rose through the Luxury Safari Company. Three years ago, we had an amazing trip in Zambia and Mozambique. We are now crossing the Atlantic to upstate New York after 10 days in Kenya and Zanzibar. Rose helped choose the destinations and camps and I must say we loved it just as much as 3 years ago. This time we took our neighbors who have never been over seas. They were absolutely blown away. The animal sightings were unreal despite the abnormal heavy rain and tall grass. Unbelievably, we saw the big five in first 6 hours of arrival including a pumba kill by two lionesses. Only through the skill of our guides Anthony and Moses at Salas camp did we have the chance to see this. Rose knows where to send clients. How often do you beg the chef in a wilderness camp to share his recipes??? Amazing. Kilindi in north Zanzibar was exceptionally private. Ask Chef Francois for a sample of the turmeric ice cream--I can't believe I am saying this but perhaps best flavor I have ever tasted. Earl grey white chocolate was a close second while chili mango sorbet tied with lemongrass sorbet for third. I will admit that I was concerned about a tour operator outside the US three years ago. I saw a review that said "In Rose we trust". Our last minute SafariAir flight cancellation was immediately fixed by Rose before I could even call her. Enough said.
