It was a deep impressing tour which we love to tell others.
Already at the first contact Simba understood what we were looking for. So we had an perfect package ready when we arrived. We experienced Uganda as we love and there was nothing we missed except we did not see lions or leopards. But we consider this as nature and this did not make us unhappy. As long as we asked about Country and people Tom our guide told us very much. The gorilla tour of course was the highlight. It made us very happy and silent.
So we recommend the company to everybody planning a tour to Uganda.

A wonderful game drive safari
It was the best trip! We absolutely loved it!
We had a very wonderful 10 days safari, customized and tailored safari for us from Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater to Serengeti national park. We saw an incredible number of animals and birds, including the big five. Our guide, James, was so knowledgeable about the wildlife and the environment, and was great at pointing out animals that we would've missed.
James really listened to what we wanted to see and was attentive to our needs.
Our accommodations were top notch and the food at each lodge or tent camp was very good.
We were pleasantly surprised by the individual attention we were given by the staff at each place we stayed. During the day we traveled in our safari vehicle for a game drive, just my husband and I with our guide, and still the cost was very reasonable.
We can't say enough great things about George, the owner Kilimanjaro Brothers, and our guide.
It was the best trip for us!

Fantastic safari with Shemeji
Shemeji were fantastic from start to finish. Emma was very quick to respond to all of my questions, helping to plan our bespoke itinerary and finding potential accommodation options in each of the areas we wanted to visit.
Ben, our guide, was fantastic. He found everything which we wanted to see and worked tirelessly throughout our safari. The cars we used were perfect, coming equipped with charging points.
I could not recommend Shemeji enough. Thanks again!!

Fantastic, Beyond our expectations!!
Good communications before we commenced the trip and the list of items to take was very useful. Very well planned trip and everything went smoothly and on time.
We had a private tour for 6 days with just the two of us plus Guide / Ranger Anton and his assistant (and good cook) Benjamin. As such we could make small changes to the schedule without any problems.
We were very happy with Anton and Benjamin, Anton very knowledgable and freindly, gave us lots of information and kept us entertained. Benjamin took care of the food and Brai (BBQ) . Good food and plenty of it!
The schedule included game drives, morning walks, night drive and we visited three rest camps. Accommodation and facilities were excelent, good security and the shop on site has everything you might need.
From the chalet we could see many animals including elephant and giraffe just outside the fence. Inside there were bush Buck abd the cheeky baboons. Night time you can listen to the animals and enjoy the peaceful environment.
We saw many animals during the safari including 4 of the big 5 and going north through the park the experience just got better and better, the view points are fantastic.
Thanks for the wonderful experience, highly recommended!

Saw everything I wanted to see
I just went on a 7 day tour and absolutely loved Uganda and I saw everything I wanted to see during my tour. My only issues were the lack of communication, responses were very slow at times which made it difficult when I’m in another country trying to organize the rest of my travels. I had signed up for a group tour being a solo female traveler, I was told I would join in on a group that was already happening when I got there so it was important I got there on a scheduled date. I kept asking Michael for the copy of the itinerary for the day by day schedule since mine was modified but I never received it. When I landed the ladies who picked me up were very nice but they told me I was signed up for an individual tour and the printed itinerary they handed me was not the places I wanted. I sent Michael a message and he assured me it was a group tour and I would meet them at Murchison falls and he said the ladies confused the itinerary and gave me someone else’s. The ladies told me to be ready at 10:30am the next day to start the tour, Michael had sent me a few messages right before I went to bed and apparently I somehow missed the one that said meet at 8:30 the next morning, so the next day Michael told me they were waiting for me since 8am. I had just landed the night before after a 27 hour flight, had he sent me the itinerary I asked for several times for scheduling and times there wouldn’t have been any issues on timing. After days of riding solo in the car with I asked Michael what happened to the group, He said they changed flights or something and explained the tour must have continued which I agree 100% but I was never told and just left to wonder my driver didn’t tell me anything either. He did upgrade my rooms which I did appreciate, the lodges were all very nice. On my last day on the way back to kampala I was asked to pay for my lunch although it was noted on my itinerary so I thought it was included. I hope that with better communication I can do another tour with them in the future because they were all prompt when I got there and my driver was always on schedule and very knowledgeable

Great gorilla safari
I've contacted Jackie months before our trip to Uganda. From the first moment she was very responsive and gave me all the info I needed for our first trip to Africa. She recommended lodges, hotels and gorilla permits. She took really good care of us during our stay at Uganda.
Denis - our driver - was really helpful and gave us many information for Uganda. The car was excellent and he helped us in any he could during the 3 days of our trip.

Very nice safari experience
Ahmed, the owner of Wildness Safari, was very helpful and quick to respond to all my questions all along my inquiries regarding that safari. What was described in the program was entirely fulfilled with one boat safari, one all-day game drive and one walking safari.
The driver/guide was not only an excellent driver between Dar and Selous but also a very knowledgeable guide.
I found the offer of this company of a very good value compared to some other companies. The place where I stayed was even better than what I expected.
