They exceeded my expectations by catering to our particular wishes and wonderful customer service.
The company was very responsive to all our questions and planned the perfect tour four our desires. The transfers worked out well arriving at the right place and were timely. The drivers were nice and professional. We appreciated the personalized experience. Thanks!!
Professional, Friendly and Knowledgeable
We booked a 2 week safari with Experience Uganda for our honeymoon and wasn't really sure what to expect, we didn't know anyone who had been to Uganda before but the reviews from others who used them spoke very highly of their experiences so we decided to give it a go. The booking process was easy, we were apprehensive about sending money to Uganda so used a credit card to be safe but Kevin (The Managing Director) confirmed he received all of our funds without any issues and that our trip was booked. Communication with Kevin was very quick and he was able to get us answers to things straight away.
From the moment we arrived in Uganda to the moment we left, the team at Experience Uganda were amazing. We were welcomed at the airport by Patrick who took us to their lodge Karibu to meet the rest of the team. Brett and Bex were incredibly friendly and welcoming they really made you feel at home. We were shown to our room by the lovely girls who work at the lodge and given time to relax before meeting with Brett to go over our busy itinerary. He provided us with all the information we needed to know, from giving us maps for the places we were visiting, telling us what to expect at certain points in our trip and also giving us a lovely handcrafted book with our itinerary and permits in it that we needed.
We were picked up the following day by our driver/guide Kamya. Such a wonderful man! His knowledge of the areas we drove through and the animals that we saw on our trip was truly outstanding, there wasn't a question we asked that he didnt know the answer to! He made the long journeys between national parks bearable by telling us interesting facts about the areas and also comparing them to our life back in the UK.
All the game drives, boat cruises and treks that we went on in our time in Uganda were wonderful, it was all organised and they provided a professional but friendly service. Kamya even gave us the opportunity to try some street food which was delicious!
The itinerary we agreed on was full of lots of exciting things to do in each place we visited and there was also an element of flexibility in it, so some afternoons we could decide to either do a game drive or have the afternoon at out leisure, the choice was ours.
The lodges we stayed at ranged from luxury to economic, some being in the middle of a rain forest with baboons roaming the grounds, others being on the edge of a river where hippos come out and graze at night! Again the staff in these lodges were all friendly and happy to help in any way they could. Food was incredible and all lodges offered a meat or vegetarian option for their mains.
We will definitely be returning to Uganda at some point in the future, it is a truly amazing country, filled with beautiful National Parks and friendly people.
Thank you again to everyone at Experience Uganda for your hospitality!

They did everything to give me a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
It was excellent!
I did Mount Meru and a 4 day Safari with Moorland Safari and can highly recommend this company! The service is great, the team is really friendly and they do everything to make you happy.
I got good equipment for the hike and a really good guide. Same for the safari - It was amazing! Our guide had a lot of experience and was able to show and explain all the animals you could see.
If you want to do a trip in Tanzania - There is no better company than Moorland. I wish the team all the best!

Great company and awesome experience!
Our tour with foot slopes in tansania was amazing and everything worked out perfectly well. Gabriel, the owner of foot slopes, took care of all our wishes and needs and made sure that we had an incredible experience without any problems. The transportation was always on time, the food during the tour was delicious and all accomodations were clean and welcoming. Due to the small group they were flexible on timing according to our wishes. As they are a rather small company, foot slopes is very concerned about every individual tour, that's why I highly recommend this company over bigger safari companies in tansania. Thank you from Austria for the amazing experience!

Richard from Mukisa Safaris and his team did a perfect job. Great!
Our Uganda trip was much more beautiful than we had expected. The travel planning and accommodations (Tent Camps) were exactly as we wanted them to be. Our guide Julius and our driver Salomon were very friendly, very competent and very courteous. We had the feeling to travel with friends. Uganda is a beautiful country and the people are very friendly. We can only recommend everyone to visit Uganda and book the trip via Mukisa Safaris. Then a great holiday is safe!

Wow! The most INCREDIBLE experience!
Sooo impressed by Mattaw Safaris! We were SO well taken care of from the second we stepped off the plane. Our accommodations were great. The drive was amazing! Our sunset safari was one of the most incredible experiences and then our ALL day safari just blew our minds. We saw lions, cheetahs elephants, and even rhinos up close and personal! Our drivers were super flexible and allowed us time to just sit and take pictures and soak it all in. We had a nice picnic lunch out on the Mara. Everything was so organized and we love that this safari gives back to an incredible organization!! Mattaw Safaris are the WAY TO GO!!!!

They are there before, during and after your trip
Our self-drive through Namibia and Botswana was a great experience. We enjoyed the professional communication of Charlie's Travel before, during and after our trip. They're instant and digital, and we like that! They clearly are an experienced travel agent and they know their markets. Be specific about what you want, or don't want and they'll try to arrange it as good as possible.

We reached the summit Mt Kilimanjaro with Kilimanjaro Planet adventures
They were well prepared and accommodating. They picked us up from the airport, reviewed our supplies and arranged for rentals of items needed. We finished a day earlier than expected and they had already found additional lodging for us by the time we reached town. Couldn’t have been happier with their service and expertise.

Brilliant service from Buffalo Safari - knowledgeable, friendly and looked after us very well!
Safari surpassed expectations, amazing landscape and wildlife. Explanations and information from Eri our driver added a lot to our experience. Felt safe and comfortable throughout, and had a great time.
