Flexible, knowledgeable and helpful.
From the first quote, Rosemary at Mountain Warriors provided excellent information and helpful ideas. She tailored our itinerary to fit our exact needs and suggested things we hadn’t thought of. The Safari itself was well organised and our guides were knowledgeable and knew exactly where to go to get the best out of the Safari. We had a fantastic time and the places that we stayed in for our mid-range Safari were amazing. Everyone was super friendly and helpful.

Fantastic safari
I traveled to Kenya in January and did a safari with Reteti Adventure Safaris, and it was a really beautiful experience. Everything was well arranged from the start and we always felt comfortable and taken care of during the trip. Our guide was very friendly, patient, and knew a lot about the wildlife and the places we visited. Seeing the animals in their natural environment and the landscapes of Kenya was something very special. I’m very happy we chose Reteti Adventure Safaris and I would gladly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Went above and beyond to make sure we had our dream honeymoon
My wife and I used Safari bookings to reach out to various companies regarding a trip to Uganda for our honeymoon, with a Gorilla trek in mind.
Bob was very responsive and helpful via whatsapp. He gave us useful advice on which airlines to book with and when would be a good time to fly to fit our itinerary.
We initially chose an 11 day excursion, but there were a few extras (viewing the shoebills and visiting Lake Bunyoni) which Bob was happy to add in and amend the itinerary accordingly without any issue.
When we landed we were greeted by Robert who made sure we got through security and had our luggage, and then we met Bob in the car park at the vehicle. We got driven to the hotel in Entebbe which was only a 15 minute drive and given the run down for the next morning. Bob made sure we were checked into the hotel and made sure we had everything we needed.
After a day in Entebbe seeing the Shoebills and doing the boat cruise on Lake Victoria, we met Francis, our guide for the rest of the trip.
Francis was excellent, he has a wide variety of knowledge about the wildlife and Uganda as a whole and it was great learning about the country from him and getting to meet many locals on the various activities. He has been a guide for years and can spot animals a mile off, so we got very lucky when out on drives having him at the wheel!
Francis is very easy going and made sure we had the best possible time. During the trip my wife mentioned she wanted to see Pangolins. Francis arranged for us to go to a Pangolin rehabilitation centre in Biwindi to make this possible. It was $30 each, and the Pangolins were super cute.
The lodges that Shuttle use are incredible, they are all so different and all of the staff at each place were very attentive and kind. Our favourite lodge had to be Elephant Plains. Martin who works there made sure we always had everything we needed and they had a kitten called Angel who was very cute!
I would recommend using The Shuttle Hospitality as they are a Ugandan company, and as such they use locals in each are to show you around and talk you through the various projects and communities. Getting to support the local guides and gaining insight into their lives was invaluable and a great way to get to know the country.
TOP TIP: You can draw out cash at various points during the trip. Francis was always happy to take us to an ATM en route. As we met a lot of locals it was always good to have cash on hand for tips.
It also happened to be my birthday during the trip, so the Shuttle arranged for people to sing happy birthday to me and a cake got brought out at dinner. It made an already fun birthday even more special.
I would highly recommend this company to anybody, and you won't regret booking with them. If you want to take a trip around Uganda, you should definitely be travelling with the Shuttle Hospitality.

We had an incredible safari experience in Masai Mara with our guide, Kush. He was extremely friendly
Had an amazing experience with Jungle Roam Safari in Masai Mara, Kenya! Our guide Kush was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and always went the extra mile to help us spot wildlife. His dedication and sharp eye made it possible for us to see the Big Five, which made the whole journey even more special.
Exploring the Masai Mara like this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and something I will cherish forever. Highly recommend Jungle Roam Safari and guide Kush for anyone planning a safari in Kenya! 🦁🐘🦒

Absolutely fantastic experience
We had an unforgettable six-day safari tour through the national parks of Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Alkanjaoi Tours from Arusha. Our tour manager Peter Mapinda of Alkanjaoi Tours was great. He managed our whole trip in excellent way, and helped us to deeply dive into the incredible wildlife. It was so amazing. We saw all the big five several times and thousands of wild animals. All the selected lodges were excellent, and the catering was outstanding. Even at lunchtime, we had a warm picnic every day in beautiful locations inside the national parks. Thank you so much, Peter!

It was an unforgettable experience, thanks above all to Hellen, who organized everything down to the last detail with her kindness and professionalism; to Agostine, the splendid guide who managed to show us all the big 5 and gave us excellent explanations; and finally to our chef Billy, who accompanied us throughout the trip. Thank you so much. A beautiful trip with excellent prices. I recommend it.

Excellent Transfer from Johannesburg to Kruger
Our transfer from Johannesburg to Kruger was excellent. The journey was comfortable and very well organized from start to finish. What really made the experience special was our driver, Theodoro. He was extremely attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the trip. He made sure we were comfortable, drove safely, and was always willing to help with anything we needed. Thanks to his great service, the long drive felt smooth and enjoyable. We truly appreciated his attention and kindness, and it made the start of our Kruger trip even better.
