Friendly person
This tour gave me a truly authentic safari experience and I was extremely satisfied! The guide was friendly, and the other tourists on the tour were also nice people, which made it a lot of fun! I even got to interact with some Maasai people, which was a valuable experience. It was a dreamlike three days. Thank you!

To go to Hazyview was nice, but to go back to Johannesburg the car was dirty.

14 day safari Excursion without Dav Safaris
My wife and I just returned from the Dav Safaris 14 day Wildlife Safari in Uganda. We enjoyed every excursion we went on in the 14 days. There was a wide variety from driving and walking safaris to cultural experiences and of course chimpanzee and gorilla trekking. The gorilla and chimpanzee trekking was outstanding experience. I also highly recommend visiting the Karamojong village in Kidepo as well as the Batswana Community in Bwindi. Every lodge we stayed at was very nice and the Ugandan people were very friendly. Our guide and driver for 14 days, “Jungle Jeck” was very punctual with time and we felt very safe on the Ugandan dirt roads with him. Probably Jeck’s only downfall is he is not real personable but after spending 2 weeks with him I figured out that’s just his personality. The negative aspects about our trip were the itinerary When the drives say 4-6 hours you better expect 8-9 hours. The itinerary is too crammed in of places to go for a ilittle bit of time. We drove 5 hours to Beautiful Lake Bunyunyl, arrived at 530 pm and left the next morning at 730 am. It really was not a sufficient time to enjoy it. Also we drove to Hoima , arrived at noon and did nothing all day. That to me was a waste.of time.Many of the lodges only offer 1 choice of entree for dinner , so if you are a picky eater you end up eating cookies in your room. Reagan, the owner, sent one of his employees to the first lodge I was staying at to collect over$7000 dollars that they said we still owed which was already paid in advance so make sure you receive a receipt for all your payments.All in all we enjoyed our trip with Dav safaris, I strongly feel that Reagan needs to update his itinerary to be more realistic with the travel times and maybe 1 less place to visit so you can spend a little more time at the others. Please don’t let this Ebola outbreak in the Congo affect your trip to Uganda. We felt very comfortable and safe there. The government of Uganda are taking measurements to keep the country Ebola free.!

Unforgettable Safari with Spectacular Guides, with Some Room for a few improvements.
We recently booked our honeymoon safari with Josero. While there were some bumps in the early planning stages, the moment we landed in Africa, the hospitality and service on the ground were wonderful, and we came away with incredible, lifelong memories. Judith, Henry and Moses were our first point of contact, very kind and helpful.
The Highlights: Exceptional Service in our Kenya and Tanzania Safari.
The absolute best part of our trip was the team on the ground. From our very arrival, everyone treated us so warmly, and communication was smooth throughout.
A massive thank you and a "big bravo" to our guides, Charles and Regan. They were truly amazing! proactive, attentive, respectful, and so knowledgeable. Thanks to their dedication, we had beautiful, memorable experiences every single day, and we absolutely loved our time with them. They are the true heart of this company!
Suggestions for Improvement:
While the trip itself turned out beautifully, there were a few logistical details during the planning and booking process that could have been handled a bit more smoothly:
-Pre-Trip Logistics & Communication: Early on, there was a bit of confusion regarding our itinerary and lodge/camp reservations. When original options were booked out, the initial alternatives offered didn't quite match the same level, so I ended up spending quite a bit of time researching comparable options myself. It all worked out perfectly in the end, but a bit more proactive management during the booking phase would have saved some stress.
-Honeymoon Special Touches: Because this was our honeymoon, we were hoping for a slightly more romantic or celebratory feel throughout the journey. Only two of the five lodges we stayed at acknowledged the special occasion with a small detail in the room, and we realized our guides hadn't been notified about it either. A little more internal communication about special milestones would go a long way!
-Vehicle Upkeep: One of the vehicles could have used a little extra maintenance, as the windows were quite difficult to slide open and close. This made capturing quick photos of the wildlife a bit tricky at times. That said, our guide was incredible and did everything he humanly could to fix it for us on the spot, which we deeply appreciated.
Final Thoughts:
In the end, the warmth and service we experienced in Africa made for a wonderful trip. Thanks to the spectacular care from Charles and Regan, it all came together beautifully. With just a bit more attention to the pre-planning logistics and special client milestones, Josero would be flawless.

The itinerary was well-planned, and the overall experience was good.
We were able to see most of the common large animals, but what we needed to see were more exciting herds of animals. That depends on luck. We sat in the car for too long, and it seemed we didn't have a chance to interact with the animals, which was a bit of a shame.
