Easy and enjoyable every step from booking to touring
Communication was excellent, often responding to emails within an hour. Always polite and pleasant, answered all my questions without hesitation. Once we arrived in country, our guide Jason was punctual and polite, and made the whole experience so easy and effortless for us. He even went the extra mile by racing back to a restaurant to retrieve our forgotten camera when his shift was over and he could have gone home. I highly recommend this company, couldn’t fault them at all. Thanks for fabulous experience.

Review about Kruger National Park by Douglas Hibbard
I love Kruger, the bush vibe driving through. The wildlife. The people in the camps.

Review about Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve by Douglas Hibbard
It is a beautiful reserve with a great camp at Hilltop. The wildlife viewing was amazing. Spending 30 minutes with a pack of Wild Dog with no other vehicles was truly amazing.

Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by Geoff
I was there during the great migration and this is the best wildlife viewing I have experienced in Africa. It is easy to see all of the big five except for rhinos. I would recommend it anyone.

Many amazing game drives
We did quite a lot of game drives, maybe too many for some, but that's why we were in Africa. We went to Kruger ( Letaba, Skukuza and Croc Bridge) and Hluhluwe as well as transit drives through that part of South Africa. We did dawn and dusk drives almost every day as well as a night drive and an armed bush walk. Wildlife highlights, African Wild dog, leopard, white rhino, cheetah, lion, jackal, elephant, hyena and almost every type of antelope. The accommodations are basic, but are clean and safe. The weather is changeable in October, but had some beautiful days. The scenery is breathtaking from the bush to the Drakensbergs. People were very nice.
Other highlights were stopping off at the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre and donating to their wildlife program and bring scool supplies for their partnered school, Stopping one night at Royal Hlane in Swaziland and hot air ballooning in the Drakensberg.

Exceeded Expectations!
My wife booked this trip with Experience Uganda for a special birthday treat for herself, so she set the standards high and chose the operator carefully. Communication with them (Kevin) was faultless, all queries addressed very quickly. The itinerary was customised with expertise, taking into consideration our time and budget requirements.
Airport transfers, game drives and travel between lodges were always punctual, thanks to Michael – our guide. He became a part of our team during our safari, it would not have been the same without him. There wouldn’t have been breakfast on the savanna or drinks at dusk on the hill top for a start.
The lodges we stayed at were brilliant, but with no disrespect to the others, Kyambura Gorge and Bakers deserve a special mention.
All the wildlife we saw was fascinating and the gorilla trekking was the highlight, better than I had imagined.
As I said earlier, my wife had set the standards high, but Experience Uganda exceeded them! Thank you for a great safari.

Our safari tour with Koboko Adventures was thoroughly enjoyable.
From our first meeting in cape Town I felt very excited about our safari. Our guide, Collen was extraordinary, not only as a guide, tracker and mechanic but also as a diplomat and manager of people. I thought that he had the skills of the CEO of a large company. Our cook, Bryan and general assistant in everything, Mishak were caring, competent and committed to excellence. I was fascinated in the landscape and wildlife, including birds and I found these guides had an amazing expertise but also a keen interest to learn more; so in that way a wonderful rapport developed between our group and our guides. We also had some keen photographers and nothing was too much trouble to get them the great shots they wanted. My husband and I particularly enjoyed a visit to a local family, chosen completely at random, who chatted to us about their way of life. Our guide showed a great deal of sensitivity in organising this.
The food was outstanding. Bryan was completely dedicated to providing nourishing, interesting food with an African slant. How he did this for 18 people on two gas burners and an open fire I don't know. And having the long treacle table set for meals added a touch of elegance and class every night.

Animals & ridiculous vistas: our safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro & Manyara was magical!
As nature lovers and outdoors folks, my buddies and I from Seattle were wildly impressed by guide Dave Thadeus. Not only was he able to get us right up to every animal one would hope to see, but his enthusiasm for African ecology was infectious. He was able to answer our countless dumb questions and cater to our weird requests. We've done a few African safaris now, and I can tell you, Dave's a pro. His humble expertise and friendly demeanor is exactly what you want in a guide.
Well planned, organised and everything was just as it should it was supposed to be
Paul planned the trip with us suggesting places and lodges to visit and stay. His personal suggestions proved to be the highlight of the trip and his suggestions for lodges where fantastic. The whole trip went like clockwork and we were helped without fuss from one location to the next.
If you go to Southern Tanzania the Ruaha is a must and Ikuka Camp is the place to stay. This was so much more than I expected and I had high expectations. But its was just fantastic.
Pauls organisation planning and support was fantastic. All done by email but always there to help. Thank You

They were like extended family. Patrick and his team are doing a great job.
