The most amazing 3 days!
We had the most wonderful 3 day/ 2 night safari with Beacon safaris. From the very start Robert communicated via email very quickly and efficiently. When the time came for the safari, everything was so well planned. From the pick up from our hotel, to the brilliant luxury camping accommodation to the incredible days touring the Masai Mara reserve and seeing such beautiful views and animals. Our driver/ guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us lots of information. We will never forget our experience with beacon safaris and would strongly recommend them to anyone

Most wonderful experience with an amazing company
My partner and i recently had an 8 day tour with Experience Uganda and we could not be happier with our decision to come to Uganda and see the country with the team at Experience Uganda.
Communication with Kevin from the beginning was fantastic, quick and informative. All my nerves and queries were settled and answered quick smart.
Upon arriving in Uganda transfers were all organized and accomodation was beautiful. Our tour was sensational and we had a fantastic guide Emma, who was just brilliant. Fun, knowledgeable and entertaining. Emma showed us some amazing sites and wildlife.
The accommodation was 5star and so unique. Nowhere else in the world can you sleep on the banks of the nile and hear hippo and hyena. Amazing.
Overall i would highly reccomend Experience Uganda to anybody who wants to experience an amazing country, meet fabulous people and see some incredible wildlife. Their service, friendliness and amazing tour could not be faulted.
Thank you very much Kevin, Leslie and Emma for the most amazing Experience.

My family's week with Let's Go Travel was one of the best trips of our lives (and we travel a lot!).
Everyone talks about a safari in Africa as a "once-in-a-lifetime" trip, but the outstanding job that Let's Go Travel did for us has me longing to go back for a second visit. Every aspect of our trip was perfectly planned, our guide had a delightful personality and was very patient with all of the questions that we asked, and our itinerary was fantastic. The accommodations were ideal and surprisingly luxurious (even though we opted for more "authentic" lodging than the high-end resorts), the food was excellent (one hotel even baked special gluten-free bread for my daughter), and the pace was perfect--we covered a lot of ground, but never felt rushed (so we had as much time as we wanted to view lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, hippos, birds, zebras, wildebeest, and so much more without being hurried along). Our guide was an expert at finding the animals and getting us to extremely close range, and he also had a great depth of knowledge about them. I can typically come up with things I would change about any trip I've been on--the only thing I would change on this trip would be to stay longer. Let's Go Travel put together a safari that far surpassed our extremely high expectations, so I'm pleased to give this company my highest rating.

Outstanding customer service and attention to detail.
We had the pleasure of booking a safari with this company and Joseph as our guide was very knowledgeable, courteous, helpful and always willing to meet our needs. We traveled with young kids on a private tour and they accommodated our changing needs as they arose. We traveled on a budget, but our housing was appropriate, and we saw all we wanted. We are still in contact with Joseph as he assists us with our sponsor child in Kenya. We trust him and he has always come through on our requests.

Mark at Gondwana set up a safari tour that was all I was hoping for and more!
From our initial email to being met by Gondwana rep when I arrived in Botswana, Gondwana made me feel extremely comfortable about my trip. I had informed Mark that my main goal of this trip was to view as many animals as possible, with a emphasis on elephants. He did not disappoint. From the first morning at the Nxai Pans camp when I walked out of my cabin to see a group of elephants drinking at the waterhole about 150 yards from me, to the last game drive of my trip, I saw elephants every game drive for the entire 10 day trip.
All 4 camps were staffed with very knowledgeable guides who made each drive a unique and memorable experience. This safari tour more than lived up to my expectations and I would recommend Gondwana to family and friends in a heartbeat. I will use Gondwana for my next safari without a doubt.

Review about Tarangire National Park by nessmaron
Surprise gem from our safari. First hour or two there wasn't much to see - but once we got to the far reaches of the park which our guide had told us were worth driving the extra hours for, we were not disappointed. We saw a really close up leopard, loads of elephants, beautiful scenery, lions in the trees. It was wonderful. I didn't want to leave.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by nessmaron
So beautiful! And (though only through binoculars) the only park we saw rhinos in. Just a magical place.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Arvind Patole
Vast open marshes with abundant wildlife, and at the background the Kilimanjaro Mountain dominance.

Wildlife in my backyard
East Africa has an incredibly rich biodiversity, with variety of habitats such as the savanna, forests and grasslands, homes to the countless flora and fauna kingdom. Being part of the supercontinent Gondwana, many areas resemble the areas found on the western coastline areas of India.
We landed at Nairobi Airport and not wanting to waste time drove off directly to the Nairobi National Park which was about half an hours drive from the Airport.
Here we got the first glimpse of what Kenya beholds for the wildlife photographers.
At the parks entry gate we were greeted by none other than the Superb Starling, a beautiful bird showing off its metallic blue-green shoulder feathers with strong white eyes, later on I came to know this bird is quite a common and a nuisance sometimes, its found all over Kenya.
Bird species were a plenty at the Nairobi National Park, and we saw Pin-tailed Whydah, speckled mouse-birds, grey crowned cranes, bee eaters, egrets, Marabau storks, vultures, ostriches and many more.
Out in the open plains between small bushes we saw two young lions taking a nap, around some acacia trees we saw some white rhinos, one was with her young a calf, Masai Giraffes, Plain Zebras, buffaloes, Antelopes and Gazelles lazily moving around.
The two hours drive in the park drove away the fatigue of travel from India to Nairobi.
The Land cruiser driver cum guide was well versed with the area and the details of the vegetation and the animals seen, he was very friendly and cooperative and would stop and spot for us the well-camouflaged birds and animals of the area.
I would recommend that two sessions should be done at Nairobi national Park, one early morning and one late afternoon to justify it.
