A trip to remember!
Lets start off with the positives...
Communication went really went, I also received a reply on the day. Which was great.
Our guide and driver Abraham was fantastic!!! He was really friendly and made our safari something we will never ever forget! Thanks Abraham!! We saw and learnt so much from him!
There are some negatives however,
After receiving the quote and saying yes, we were told that there was a mistake in the price.
One of the places we chose to stay was further away, of which we were unaware of. Uhuru did not know of this either and we therefore had to pay 100 Dollars extra for our transfer. We found this out on the day we arrived. This is something I think could have been avoided if researched prior to our arrival or maybe when making up the itinerary.
Some of the paperwork had not been done timeously so we missed a few hours on 2 days due to waits at the gate waiting for paperwork to be submitted.
Despite the negatives, this was a trip of lifetime and something we will cherish forever. The positives definitely outweigh the negatives but if Uhuru could improve on those small things it will only benefit them. It was definitely a trip we could not have done on our own!
Thanks Uhuru and most of all Abraham for the most amazing trip!

My gorilla and chimp tour with Encounter Africa Safaris, and Tolbert, my guide, was life-changing
From the very beginning, Encounter Africa Safaris was amazing. Chris answered every minute question I asked!! They took care of everything. The schedules were precise and extremely organized. My guide and driver, Tolbert, was incredible. He was so friendly and accommodating. He never tired of my requests!! He was always so cheerful and helpful, despite the long hours. Wherever we went, lodges, stop overs, trekking locations, he was well recognized and respected. The guides knew him well and went out of their way to greet him. He made sure I had the best and most experienced guides. He made sure that I was well taken care of. After my incredible gorilla trek, I was so emotional. When I came down the mountain and saw Tolbert, I burst out crying!! I trusted him with my life, basically, for a whole week and never did I feel one moment of doubt. I am eternally grateful for my Uganda experience with Encounter Africa Safaris, Chris and Tolbert. It was a life-changing experience for me. I can't wait to do it again!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Jennifer Velo

They are very accommodating as what you would expect from a tour/travel agency.
They arrive on time to pick us up. They are very accommodating that make us feel welcome and comfortable during the entire tour. They do not bother to stop so that we can have the sufficient time to enjoy the scenery and experience the wilderness. They let us see even the small animal to have the complete experience. And they brought us home safely after the trip ending the journey with a group picture. It is really a wonderful experience with Kichaka Tours and Travel.

Perfect trip to Mikumi
Tanzania Explorer did an excellent job arranging a one-day safari in Mikumi for a group of 26 students from Denmark. The students definitely enjoyed the experience! The guides managed to find both lions, elephants, buffalos, hippos, giraffes etc. The vehicles were in a very good condition and the planning and communication with the manager ahead of the trip was very professional.

LetsGoTravel provides an excellent First Class flexible service.
UNIGLOBE LetsGoTravel provided an excellent service and were extremely flexible and patient whilst arranging a DIY itinerary on a recent trip to Kenya. Communications were always prompt, professional and speedy. All the arrangements for international and domestic flights were spot-on and worked like clockwork. The staff are always willing to go the extra mile for a pleasant customer experience. I cannot praise the staff in general, and Esther in particular, for their attention to detail in arranging flights and accommodation in the Lodges and Hotels in Kenya. You will not be disappointed if you use the services of this slick operator. Asante Sana!

Awesome 6 Day tour of Uganda seeing Gorillas and chimps and more!! :)
My girlfriend and I just got back from an amazing 6 day tour of Uganda with this company and it was AMAZING!! :) From the very start Nicholas was easy and extremely prompt to communicate with and made all our preparation so easy.
Unfortunately we missed our flight from Nairobi to Kigali and so our amazing guide Chris was waiting all day for us at Kigali airport. He must have been so tired when we finally arrived but didn't show it and quickly got us to Bwindi for Gorilla trekking the next day. The whole experience and the whole tour was incredible, both thanks to our incredible guide Chris (who has an amazing personal story) and to Nicholas. It was a once in a lifetime trip and it was awesome from start to finish. Thanks to Chris we even saw 3 male lions in QENP which no other tour saw that day. What a spotter that man is!
Couldn't recommend this company highly enough and if you can get him try and request Chris as your tour guide as people say he's the best in the region, and after our trip we believe them! :)
