Beyond Expectations
Our safari with Mika from Highneck Safaris was simply incredible. He treated us like family, showcasing the stunning beauty of Tanzania and ensuring we had unforgettable moments. With his expertise, we were fortunate to witness all of the big five animals. The accommodations provided, particularly camping in the Serengeti, exceeded our expectations. Our trip was truly unforgettable, thanks Mika.

Good personality and good communication
I visited Uganda for safari with Zootopia game drive safaris The communication was somewhat flexible and instant as Ronnie was always eager to respond to my queries and solved all my concerns. At the beginning I feared traveling alone, but he assured me that he would join the trip together with the guide to give me company as i traversed the beautiful country of Uganda.
I never felt alone on this trip and always felt secured. My guide was Richard and his humble personality gave him a likeable character and he was a good driver indeed. The vehicle was okay and comfortable.
My highlight was the Gorillas in bwindi and indeed this,moment felt surreal and I almost didn't notice the one hour spend watching these gentle giants me by. I couldn't say much about this moment. Surely as,many say, once is limiting when it comes visiting Uganda. I wish to come back and visited more of nature in Uganda and I can go wrong with Zootopia game drive safaris Ltd.

Julius was friendly, informative and trustworthy
Spent a wonderful time with Julius on my one free day in Maun. We went to Elephant Haven together, an elephant orphanage for baby ellies under 5 years old. We fed all 16 of them and learned so much. It's a MUST if you are in the area!
Best of all I made a great friend in Julius. He works tirelessly in his local community and donates selflessly from his Company "Go Bold Adventures".
We intend to go back later in the year to do a safari with him and spend more time in this beautiful place, assured that we will be well looked after.

Adventure of a lifetime
We had a great time on our Tanzanian safari with African Big Cats. Everything went so smoothly - all we had to do was sit back and enjoy the amazing sights. Lavoi was a superb guide. Funny, knowledgeable, a great driver and unbelievable animal spotter. When other guides were lost, they would be asking Lavoi how to get back to the lodge! We had so many unbelievable animal encounters and Lavoi made sure we found everything we wanted to see!
From initial enquiry, the team were quick, flexible and helpful. We chose African Big Cats due to a recommendation from a friend and we will now strongly recommend anyone to go with African Big Cats.

Jamal provided a very personalized safari adventure ensuring we experienced the best of Uganda
Jamal was an exceptional guide and from the moment he picked us up at the airport, he made us feel welcomed. It was a joy to get to know him over our 10 day tour and by the end of our safari Jamal felt like family! This was our first trip to Africa and Jamal made sure our experience in Uganda was one to remember. Jamal immersed us in the local traditions, city highlights, local foods, local shops/markets, and wildlife safaris. We always felt we were in good hands and even when we had truck trouble, or if we came across others having difficulty with their vehicles, Jamal was able to quickly identify the problem and lend a helping hand to get the adventure back on track again. Jamal even customized the tour on the fly to be sure our Uganda experience was complete.
Jamal was a great guide, who could make quick decisions and changes seamlessly to ensure the safari runs smoothly. I would recommend his company for your next Uganda adventure.

INCREDIBLE TRIP; THANK YOU LIGHTS ON AFRICA
I have been to Tanzania one other time so I am confident in saying that based on my two experiences, Lights on Africa by FAR EXCEEDED my known expectations. Just WOW, from the minute I arrived to the minute I left, well I did not want to leave. Peniel greeted my Group and made us feel so welcomed. The accommodations were SO fantastic, including the food :) but I must say that my Driver; Ray made my trip incredibly memorable. His many years of working in tourism contributed to the wealth of knowledge Ray has for the hidden trails in each park! Not just main roads but what tree is known for lions. Where the likelihood of seeing a Cheetah and where to find them! Ray knows the terrain of each park, has fantastic knowledge of ALL the animals including birds. We were the same 6 people in his Jeep the entire time, we asked a LOT of questions. Every one was answered thoughtfully, and gave us a sense of 'all knowing' and his mechanical ability!!!!! The terrain is oftentimes deep mud, sandy, water, very rugged and touch but Ray knew which way to steer and how to mitigate our ride, not to mention being the AWESOME DRIVER he is, he always (ALWAYS) stopped to help pull another driver out. I cannot say enough kind words or express gratitude to everyone at Lights on Africa, I felt like I was leaving family when the last wave was waved. I can only look forward to a third time to your beautiful country and know who I will be using; LIGHTS ON AFRICA.
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Beautiful scenery with lots of wildlife
We went to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire National Park. I expected to see some animals but we saw SO much more than I was anticipating! The weather was beautiful and the scenery getting from one place to another was spectacular.

Stunning
The safari was magnificent. We saw a ton of wildlife. All the guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. We roughed it and decided to do Glamping for our three nights stay. Everything was clean, safe., Staff was wonderful and made you feel right at home And they all made sure we were at our destinations on time. The chef created delicious meals we did not go hungry.
We couldn’t ask for better experience.

unforgettable experience with Nkollo Tours and absolutely recommended
I booked a 5 day flight in and out of Zanzibar. The flights, transfers, accommodation and tours were carried out absolutely reliably, just as offered. The tours and nature were breathtaking and our guides Hassad and Benson are absolutely great. Allan took care of everything and was always there to answer any questions. Thanks for the unforgettable experience.
