Jackson was selfless and put us 1st on everything.
This was my second trip to Uganda and I was blessed to bring my daughter along this trip. We were greeted at the airport with a great smile and a since security. Over the next week Jackson went above and beyond for our group. He was always early and stayed late. On our safari Jackson was very knowledgeable of all the animals and explained them well. I never felt like we were ever put in danger on our safari. Thank you Jackson and Brian with Uganda Family Tours for the awesome job. I highly recommend this group…

Focus on making it the best experience possible!
All of our guides went out of their way to make sure we had the best possible experience. They were extremely knowledgeable about the area and culture…and always did whatever they could to make sure we had front row seats for the animals. Wished we would have stayed longer!!

Don't hesitate, go with Safari Specialists!
Here's another 5-star review. How many more do you need? Go with Safari specialists and you will not be disappointed! Bronwyn helped us set up a 15-day safari through Namibia and Botswana and we couldn't have been more satisfied. I had been to the Okavango area a few years before so I had an idea of where I wanted to go and what I wanted to see and the lodges we decided upon couldn't have been better. I was unfamiliar with Namibia, but the places Bronwyn suggested were perfect, all unique and very comfortable. If I had any questions or wanted to make any changes, Bronwyn was always ready to promptly take care of things and there was never a problem. My traveling companion did have some health issues and Safari Specialists did everything they could to help us resolve them along the way and still keep us on schedule. We also had a problem with our flight leaving Maun; Air Botswana let us down--which wasn't anything Safari Specialists was responsible for--but Bronwyn made every effort to successfully get us on a different flight. A Safari Specialists staffer who happened to be at the airport also stayed with us until she was sure we got on our flight. Just excellent service all around! Thanks Bronwyn and Safari Specialists for a great trip!

We had many GREAT ADVENTURES with this company!
Go with Great Adventures! I booked a 2 week custom itinerary with gorilla & chimpanzee trekking in Bwindi and Kibale, respectively, a Murchison Falls game drive, and 3 days in the Maasai Mara of Kenya. All the accommodations they booked were comfortable, beautiful, and with great food and staff.
Samuel, the planner, arranged everything and was helpful and communicative. Joseph was our guide in Uganda, and he was the best! He was knowledgeable about animals & culture, accommodating, and fun. There were a couple setbacks with our itinerary (some due to us, some due to vendors that Great Adventures worked with), but they did everything they could to put us at ease and pivot to a suitable alternative. Overall, we had an incredible and memorable time, and have many fond memories, photos, and relationships to take home with us.
I’m so glad I booked this unforgettable trip of a lifetime with this company! Go with them instead of a big US or EU-based tour company — you’ll be supporting local jobs in Uganda, and these guys are great. Thank you so much for making this an incredible experience!

Simply beautiful
Tanzania is a great destination for safari and other activities. We first went on safari and then took the ferry to Zanzibar. Both destinations were great and we couldn’t have asked for a better trip. The only thing that could have made it better is if we would have spotted lions on our safari but sadly none were seen. But that is just nature and not Tanzanias nor our guides fault so overall an unreal experience. Highly recommend!

Great place. Some issues during the trip…
Tanzania is a wonderful country. Great people, amazing safaris, but very poor. Need to watch the quality of the water you get in touch with and also take malaria pills during your trip to prevent illness.

The wildlife is abundant
The roads are in horrific condition and beyond repair. I would not recommend traveling with a standard sedan. Pilanesberg Center is a must see. Road from Bakgatla needs a complete redo. Wildlife is abundant. Pilanesberg WAS the crown jewel of the North West province. I assume mismanagement and incompetence being the reason for the decline of this once wonderful park. At least the Wildlife is still there.
