Excellent service!
When we visited Tanzania, it was the last country out of the three in our EAST AFRICAN TOUR TRIP. We were not planning on going on to a safari. As we had seen some animals in Kenya, and some in UGANDA. All we wanted now was to relax a bit, check out the majestic Kili, eat local food, etc...Then, when we were eating at Kibo Palace restaurant, my wife suggested that maybe she should do a Safari, even if it is just one day, just for the sake of it. Our Airbnb host gaves us the name Samless adventure as their offices were close to where we were staying. Sam came to see us we told him what we wanted, and he recommended us to go to Tarangire National Park. Sam's driver/guide came to pick us up the next morning right on time. He was so nice, and we had an amazing time with him. As for the safari, we saw all the animals that we wanted to see, except the KING. Apparently, on a hot sunny day, the lion as any other cats hid under the shades. Thank you Samless Adventures for making our unplanned safari became an amazing one. I will come again!

Best experience
Our experience with wildlife safari Exploreans was just amazing. Great communication: weeks before our travel we stayed in contact daily with Mildred, who was so kind to explain us all the details about the safari. She was very polite and professional, and everything during these days went exactly as she told us. The safari itself has been one of the best experience in our life. Well arranged, without any kind of problem or delay and with a reasonable price comparing to other companies. The Jeep was good, the tents were beautiful. But the first place is for our guide, Sammy. He has been just perfect: smart, kind, always on time and precise. It has been a real pleasure for us to spend our week with him. He’s a great, great diver, never rude, always helpful. He loves animals and nature, and his passion is evident when he tells you everything about any single animal or tree you’ll see during your game.

3 Days Governors’ Camp
We had a wonderful 3-day safari at Governors’ Camp in the Masai Mara. Booked it through the Internet with Wildlife Safari Exploreans and were impressed with a timely, prompt and absolutely perfect service from booking, pickup at and return to the hotel. Thanks to Mildred and her team!

Totally professional, superbly organised and well communicated in all aspects.
My wife and I have recently completed a 16 day tour of Southern Africa (our first), 12 of which consisted of a tour organised by Roho Ya Chui (through Ute Sonnenberg) comprising visits to Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and the safari camps of Muchenje, Ghoha Hills Savuti and Machaba in Botswana.
In the initial stages we acquired quotes and itineraries from two agents in Australia and two in South Africa. By comparison, Ute's was not the cheapest quote received nor was it the most expensive however we found her to be the most comprehensive in her ability to match the parameters we had set. Most importantly however was Ute's responsiveness to our contacts and her adaptability to several changes we made throughout the process.
It also helped that we were able to undertake a Skype session with her where many of our questions were answered and the ease in which we were ultimately able to book and pay. In so far as the tours went themselves, all our road transfers and light aircraft flights (3 in total) went to schedule and all the venues chosen exceeded all our expectations.
We also had the pleasure of meeting Ute in Johannesburg on the last day of our tour and found her to be just as excited about what we had just experienced on our trip as we were. We can only suggest that if you are planning a trip to Africa make sure you visit the Roho Ya Chui website and really consider organising and undertaking your trip with Ute. You will not be disappointed. Thanks Ute. We hope to travel to Africa again in the future and will certainly use your services again when we do.
Best Regards

Everything we hoped it would be
Communications with Mack via email were swift and comprehensible.
We were picked up at the airport on arrival by our guide, Thomas, who would be with us for the whole week. We signed up for a budget camping safari, and we had a great time! The campsites were nicer than I thought they would be, and the Kiliholidays team did a great job of taking care of us the whole trip. Thomas was very accommodating, and our 'stomach engineer' did a fantastic job the whole trip. My partner and I were very impressed by the quality of the food. Thomas was an incredible driver; a few times we had to stop and help other drivers who were stuck! This was my second visit to East Africa, and I will definitely book with Kiliholidays for my third trip :)
A few tips for other travelers: The sleeping mattress was a bit thin for me (my partner had no trouble!), but I found that sleeping on my back instead of my side helped. If you have sensitive hips, I'd recommend bringing something to use as a cushion, or possibly arranging for an extra mattress. The tent was high-quality and the sleeping bags were warm. We stayed in Mto wa Mbu a few nights and it was quite hot there. We brought sleeping sacks (very thin) and used those instead. Bring LOTS of insect repellent and use it often (biting flies in the daytime, mosquitoes at night). Same with hand sanitizer (public campsite toilets don't usually have soap). Granola bars are a good idea, too, if you like to snack between meals. There's not a lot of access to ice, so if you like an evening adult-beverage, just ask your guide to stop before you leave Arusha to pick up some wine. We picked up a 5-liter box of South African wine for about 25euros and it was very convenient (bring your own cups!).

If you haven’t been on Safari with Mussa then you haven’t been to a proper Safari.
Mussa not only lived up to our expectations but exceeded our dreams and made sure that we saw every animal we wanted to see. He often entertained us with his knowledge of game, the landscape and the local culture and we soon found not only a great tour guide but also a friend in him. The food he arranged for was amazing and nutritious and we simply had the time of our lives. You HAVE to go on Safari with Mussa. Thanks for everything!

Very Good
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has made an effort to make this safari tour for us.
Especially with Mr. Simon, who organized everything very well. Our driver was very dedicated and competent. Our accommodations were also very good.
Mwema Africa Safaris is highly recommended. Thanks again for everything.

Absolutly fantastic organized with a lot of experience and many helpful recommendations.
What we really liked was that Ute called us directly after our first mail. We get the chance to hear more about her experience and she gave us a lot of recommendations to make sure we really plan our vacation as requested.
We also loved how quick she was. That's sometimes something really crucial to decide with wich travel agent you will book.
This Vacations was one of our best we ever had. From A-Z was all perfect organized all our Lodges was just amazing and the nature absolutely gorgeous im May. You spend a lot of money but it's really worth to do it.
Every Camp were totally different and also the nature and the region. That was a point was we really loved. So you are never bored and you see so many things.
The Water Camp Jacana was something what we never expected to see. Palm trees, so many sand, birds, calm and water. All the water Safaris which you can do in May are fantastic. The view is different and it's so relaxed.
The Food and Wine of the hole Safaris was excellent. And we were anytime really happy with all our Guides and the knowledge.
Oh yes and not to forget the donation for the lights we really liked and also all Camps are very eco-friendly.
We are sure we will coming back to book another trip through Africa. We can really recommend this Travel Agent.

Perfect Trip! Excellent organization and guiding from Mushra Travel Agency
I had the best time in Uganda with a trip organized by Mushra Travel Agency. Preparing the trip I communicated with Michael via e-mail and Whatsapp. He was always ready to answer all my questions and provided me with multiple options for the trip eventually resulting in the perfect itineray which included everything I wanted to visit and see in Uganda.
The professional service, quick response time and detailed information provided me with a high level off comfort leading up towards the start of the trip. This all together resulted in me having no issues whit transferring a down payment for the trip (which is also required if you want to arrange a gorilla trekking permit). At arrival I was picked up by Mushra Travel Agency, had a short briefing with Michael and my driver/guide for the tour Martin. Also, I had decided on my way to Uganda that I wanted to adjust my agreed itinerary slightly extending my trip with a visit to Lake Mburo as well which was no issue thanks to Mushra's flexibility.
In the end the trip has given me everything I hoped for and even more. Thanks to Michael and his team for my memorable trip in Uganda. Special thanks go out to my guide Martin, he made the trip! He was always making sure I was having a good time, always looking after me concerning my needs, very talkative and just a fun person to roadtrip with. Furthermore, he had detailed knowledge about Uganda's (and even all of East Africa's) flora and fauna and was able to spot a variety of birds, wildlife (including the Big Five), and trees and plants. I can truly say that I came as a client and left as a friend. I'll be missing my brother from another mother!
Overall I can highly recommend Mushra Travel Agency in case your looking for an adventure in Uganda. Their variety in trips and options for these trips includes something for every type of traveler and their care taking and high service level will surely not let you down!!
