We hada great trip
We had an excellent trip and all the tented lodges were all special in their own way. The driver/guide in Tanzania as well as Kenya was professional and always ready for a full day of experiences. We saw many different animals and stopped in some local villages on the way. We can recommend Wildebeest Safaris without hesitation.

The Best Wonderful Safari Experience
Booked the safari "7 Day Uganda Wildlife Trip" in Uganda and it was from the first to the last
Second everything perfectly organized.
This was one of the most beautiful safaris I have experienced.
My tour guide Gerad was a great driver, helpful, courteous and explained a lot to me
about the surroundings and showed me other beautiful areas,
I was safe with him a Fantastic tour guide
Very nice accommodations with comfortable beds.
I had enough time to observe and photograph animals
If I do a safari in Uganda again then I will try to get Gerad as my tour guide.
Overall, I would travel again with this company Mega Wild Safaris.
They were helpful in signing up, communicating excellently all the time, and the safari was amazing.

A great experience with experienced people from booking the trip by email to the game drives
Spirit of Kenya replied us very fast on email. Even ee had a lot of questions they replied immidateley and had a lot of patience with us. The driver were always on time and had a lot of knowledge (he had been 15 years in the game). We saw «everything» on our 4 day safari. The big five + «all» the other animals. The game drives very UNBELIEVABLE. Worth each penny!! Accomodations were also top notch. Also the food.

First class all the way!
We whole-heartedly recommend Dancing Zebras! We went to three national parks as a family. We have two kids - ages 18 and 15. Jessica from Dancing Zebras asked all the right questions and our safari was exactly what we wanted. We loved the private game drives and amazing guide.
I especially appreciated the booklet sent to us before our trip, spelling out our daily itinerary, suggested packing, tipping, etc.

The trip of our lives!
I chose Ker & Downey to help us plan our African safari after hours of online research comparing the different safari outfits and reviewing their tours. I absolutely chose the right company and Kayleigh, our "Adventurist" who helped us, was amazing in her attention to detail to ensure we had the trip of our lives. Nothing was overlooked, from the airport transfers to the suggestions of what we should be sure to do at each location and lodge. She presented us with three options in different price ranges and then changed things as requested. My husband told her this was our honeymoon - after 29 years of marriage - and she passed this on to each lodge where we stayed. One lodge had a bubble bath set up for us with candles lit when we returned from an evening game drive, and another one had a lovely candlelight dinner away from camp and under the stars of the Milky Way. These experiences were wonderful and meaningful beyond belief and added immeasurably to our enjoyment of this trip. I cannot recommend Ker & Downey and especially Kayleigh enough, they will help you plan the safari of your dreams. One thing we did was have a balance between actual safari and site-seeing. We were in Cape Town for four days where we saw Table Mountain, the winelands, and the cape area; then Lion Sands Narina Lodge where we saw Sabi Sands Game Preserve and part of Kruger National Park; then the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe; and finally, two areas in Botswana, the Savute and the Okavango Delta. This was utterly perfect for us, a stellar blend of game drives to see the wildlife and the tours to see incredible natural wonders. Kayleigh at Ker & Downey did a masterful job coordinating all of the transfers between countries - we were so glad to have people meet us and usher us through Customs and Immigration. Trust me, Ker & Downey will help you plan a memorable trip and will see that every last detail is covered so that you can remain worry-free. We are in love with Africa now and I know we will return. We will not hesitate to use Ker & Downey and Kayleigh again in our future travels.

Uganda beyond expectations!
Great time and adventure in Uganda. It was far beyond our expectations, landscape, kindness of the people, Gorila trekking out of this world! include in your bucket list! Benon our guide is a safari Superman! Knowledgable & so diligent: making sure we were ok, rooms ok, enough water to drink. But most of all he always kept a smile and good sense of humor, so necessary in long trips to cheer us up as we got tired. He explained to us that in his culture, whenever you have a visit at home, you have to achieve a feeling of comfort in your guests. He is a good ambassador of the Uganda culture!! Will be the spokespersons for the beauties of Uganda.

AMAZING SAFARI WITH SCORPION TOURS LTD
Scorpion Tours organized the perfect Safari for me and my wife, we went on a 5 day Safari: Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. First all the booking, payments, doubts, communication, you know, all that prior-to-travel process, was fantastic. Emmanuel was very helpful, he was always answering very fast, we wanted to have different quotes and he did all for us, and we think we paid a really good price for what we got. The payment was instant and particularly easy with our bank cards.
Then once we arrived, everything happened as Emmanuel told us before hand, they picked us up at the airport, the accommodation was ready, everyone was nice and helpful, always with a big smile and happy to answer all your questions. then the safari, JOHN was really good guide, a lot of experience and a great spotter! He knew which animals he was seeing no matter how far they were, you can ask him anything, he will answer. Adam is a great guide. The car was comfortable and clean all the time, we never lacked of food nor water. Definitely Adam helped us make this trip unforgettable.
We stayed in Kirurumo Manyara, Serena Serengeti and Serena Ngorongoro. Scorpion Tours sorted all the bookings and we did not have any problems, they were waiting for us. If you are planning to go near Manyara, Kirurumo tented lodge is a FANTASTIC place, our favorite hotel from the three.
If you are planning to go to Tanzania, I have no doubt that Scorpion Tours is the best option. We saw all big 5, plus many more, including baby animals. Thanks again Scorpion Team! Totally recommended.

Heritage of African Jungles is the Best!
We are family of four booked 5 days (4nts) mid-range safari with Heritage of African Jungles to Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and 2 nights to Masai Mara. After researching and comparing price on the Safari Bookings website, we decided to go with Naomi (owner) because we found she was competitive, trustworthy and flexible with the payment options after reading reviews on the trip adviser. Naomi and her assistant Gladys efficiently respond to all our questions without any hidden costs. We stayed at our preferred camps Amboseli Serena, Sarova Lionhill and Ashnil Mara camp which are within the park so you have more time for games. As a vegetarian family we found food was excellent and staff were helpful. We paid 25% as deposit and the rest on arrival.
Naomi came to greet us up at Nairobi airport and transfer to the hotel for trip briefing. Francis our driver/guide was best and flexible with timing. He was brilliant with jungle knowledge where to spot the animal and will go out of his way to make sure that we are happy. With extremely good driving skills he managed to take on a wet and muddy Masai Mara without any problem. It was amazing to be so close to the animals and was best moment of our life. We saw the big five and many other animals and birds. In Masai Mara our lodge was on Mara river where we spotted crocodile and group of hippos in the river from the camp restaurant.
We thank Francis for many unforgettable moments including leopard hunting for food, lions with the cubs and a pair of cheetahs relaxing. He is one of the best most importantly he treats us as friends and brought us back safely. We have made right chose going with Naomi and saving money using 4 wheel minivan than paying extra for a land cruiser offered by other operators.
We highly recommended Naomi and her team at Heritage and grateful to provide us with memorable safari & wonderful experience.

Pamoja Tours and Oyer Charles are the absolute BEST!!!
Went to Uganda to view the mountain gorillas. What we experienced was so much more. Our tour guide, Charles showed us the best of Uganda and shared his experiences and life with us which made the trip more interesting and personal. He went above and beyond to give us a complete African experience and when we wanted to see something particular, he wouldn't give up until we found it. Not only did we we get to see an abundance of animals, we got to visit local life and meet people in his home village. Our personal experience with Charles has enriched our life and we will forever be connected to him. His compassion for his country and his home village is extraordinary and ayone who travels with him will be forever changed in a most positive way.
