Great private trip even though our schedule changed last minute
Our flight was delayed for three hours and quickly Charity from the office rescheduled our trip.
We enjoyed our trip to the national park and The Bomas of Kenya. Our driver Brian expertly drove us and gave information regarding the animals.
I can recommend this company and the value for money they provide.

Kilimanjaro and Simba Safari
We booked the Simba safari, 4 days and 3 nights. It was a great experience. we all saw the big 5. our guide knew everything about the wildlife and we could ask him anything. The Kilimanjaro tour was also great! we had great guides and a great team. The guides looked after us well. We never felt unsafe. Our health was regularly monitored and we received great care! We can wholeheartedly recommend the Kili hike adventure organization to everyone!

Fantastic experience
We booked a 6 day safari to the Tshukudu Bush Camp and Kruger Park, starting with the panoramic tour. We were accompanied by Donald who was our (very good) private guide and also prepared some delicious meals for us.
A fantastic experience !

The perfect Safari experience
Starting from the booking at home until the last day of our 4-day safari trip it was an absolutely perfect and amazing experience. The guys from Suricata are absolutely professional and at the same time such incredibly caring hosts!
Damian our driver and guide was so great. He knew everything about the amazing places we visited and also about the animals we saw. On top of that he created such a nice atmosphere in our group, we just loved it. The lodges we were staying at were great and also the food we got during the day created by our chef-cook Tito. We definetly recommend to do at least 3-4 days to see all the different places.
The organization around was perfect - thanks to Mr. T and Daniel from Suricata. We did not need to care about anything as they were so great.
We would definetly recommend Suricata as we could compare it to other client's experiences with other companys.
Thanks a lot for everything to the whole Suricata team!

Our guides were amazing! They were knowledgeable, flexible, had great English skills and personable.
This was a trip of a lifetime! I went on a Safari with a group of 10 of us, and I can honestly say this group was the best. Each safari driver was knowledgeable about the animals, the terrain, and keen on the specific things our group wanted to see (we had some birders in our group and others interested in seeing the big cats, and they went out of their way to find it). It was worth every dollar, I can’t recommend this group enough.these people at the end of my trip were true “rafikis”. Asante sana! Long live África and all of its beauty!!

An unforgettable and truly amazing trip, thanks to the team at Shanjoy
Patrick and his team at Shanjoy were excellent from start to finish, and I would 100% recommend them. They really care about making your holiday great - I made a change to the itinerary before going, and also added on an additional game drive for the final day at quite late notice - we had a late flight from Nairobi so I was keen to make the most of it. Joseph (our guide in Kenya) and Harun (our guide across the border in Tanzania) were both phenomenal and made every effort to make the experience amazing.
I had made some other enquiries of larger companies and found they were quite one-size-fits-all, but the service from Shanjoy was personalised and thoughtful,. Even a little thing like helping us find a replacement camera charger on the first morning wasn't too much trouble, and made the whole trip so smooth from start to finish. Everything was on time, communication was great and the trip was great value for money (some of our experiences were priceless).

Amazing organisation and attention to detail. I would fully recommend Achieve Global Safaris to mana
This was to be a trip of a lifetime. I was returning to Uganda after 60 years absence and dragging my son along for a trip down memory lane. The tour was tailor made to include all the places I had grown up in and places I had visited. Jolie at Achieve Global Safaris was excellent at making all the arrangements at some strange places off the tourist route such as the Mountains of the Moon Hotel in Fort Portal and the Silver Springs Hotel in Kampala. She did an excellent job of making sure the itinerary flowed smoothly, even when my bag was left behind at Manchester!
We had a superb driver Joseph who was completely unfazed by the atrocious driving in Kampala and other major cities and dealt with the crazy boda-bodas with calm, patience and skill. Joseph also put up with my strange requests to visit my old Nakasero Primary School, Port Bell on Lake Victoria, where I used to fish as a 9/10 year old and he seemed to have a sixth sense where the game was located. We saw two leopards, one on an early morning game drive and another up a euphorbia cactus tree. We also had two huge male lions come and slump down in the shade of our Landcruiser for the shade. I could have reached down an scratched them between the ears!
It was a fabulous two weeks and my son has also fallen in love with Uganda and vows to return. I will be forever grateful to Jolie, Joseph and Achieve Global Safaris for their support and amazing kindness. They are the BEST!

Excellent organization, communication and planning.
We had a most amazing experience, I never thought we would be able to afford a safari but we had a sixteen day adventure at a very reasonable cost. The lodging was all fun, well run and beautiful. Love the bush camps. We had the best guide ever. Leslie took great care of us and found every animal and bird you could want to see. So many birds! It was a dream to be riding through the grand landscape searching for the next surprise.
We added on a balloon ride over Ndutu that I would highly recommend, worth every penny. Also the cultural tour in Mto wa Mbu was so good.
All the details came together without a hitch. Terrific and highly recommend. Thank you Brenda, Leslie and Noel(sp?) truly a trip of a lifetime, but I want to come back!

Knowledgeable, responsive, and put together a great time
From the moment I messaged them 3 months before arrival, they were very responsive, at the latest within 24 hours.
I was traveling solo and hoped to be paired with a group, but they do not combine groups. I stick with this company because my friends had recommended them, and they did not disappoint. It was a bonus to be solo because I received extra attention and assistance I may not have in a large group. My guide Steve and the team were incredibly experienced, guiding me to the top via Marangu route 5 days safely.
