Africa National parks Trips

I have done a lot of travel and this was honestly the best trip I've ever been on. Every day was full of adventure, beautiful sceneries and unreal experiences. I wasn't sure what to expect going into this trip and only booked it for something different to do, however Africa has turned into my favourite place! I am already planning to go back and do other Contikis there next year.

This trip was such a good blend of the tourist highlights and local culture. I really liked the bushmen activity...it was so eye opening and a beautiful experience. Deadvlei was also incredible to see.. there is truly nothing like it. Every day we saw something new...Namibia is just so diverse with all it has to offer.

An absolutely outstanding trip - I visited Uganda in 1994 to see Gorillas and the wildlife etc - so this return trip was to see how the country had changed. There were a lot of changes but some things have stayed the same. The people are still so friendly, helpful and hospitable. Obviously the greatest expected highlight is trekking to the Gorillas and it was beyond expectations - our guide Robert had arranged for us to trek to the same family group I had seen 31 years ago - a small but extremely meaningful gesture - that is what makes a trip memorable. Getting literally a few feet away from the entire family group was sensational. But there is so much more to this trip - Walking with Giraffes and Zebra, admiring the Golden Monkeys, Dancing with the Ride 4 a Woman group, Laughing with Batu Tribespeople, making coffee from the bean, drinking the Banana Gin and reflecting on history at the Rwanda Genocide Memorial. The accommodation was superb - the lodges are all in the countryside environment - so you are surrounded by wildlife. The "Hot Water Bottles" and roaring fires make a very homely feel. There's even a couple of swimming pools at the perfect points in the trip Food was outstanding - maybe just a little too much - but extremely tasty, varied and offering the chance to experience local cuisine. One Tip - most places accept US Dollars - but in Uganda they are very meticulous on the quality - they MUST be clean, fresh, flat notes. No rips, tears, added pen ink or marks. Moderate pace is the perfect grading - Early morning starts but most days we had some spare time to relax, chill, enjoy the sights, drink and laugh. A highly recommended trip!

It was an amazing trip! Our tour guide was fantastic and the sites we saw were a once in a lifetime experiences! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit these three countries!

An absolute trip of a lifetime! What a fantastic holiday. It was an action packed holiday but I feel we got everything we wanted out of this trip and more. The safaris are excellent, we managed to see the big 5 and the drivers really go above and beyond to try and spot as many animals as they can for you. The additional activities were also amazing, we had an amazing time on the rafting and also on the swing / zip line in Zimbabwae. The people within our group were the best group of people you could ask for and really took our trip to the next level. We have to give a massive shout out to our guide *personal info removed by Feefo*. What an amazing man he is! He went above and beyond to ensure we all knew the time table for the days, answered any questions we had, was so knowledgeable about the places we visited and the local culture. We felt 100% safe in his care, and this also stands for all our drivers etc throughout the trip. He also went above his role for us as he helped my boyfriend to plan the perfect proposal to myself, so we really cannot thank him enough. Yes you have to pay for many of the additional activities but it is TOTALLY worth it - it will be trip we will never forget and will keep in our hearts forever. Do not hesitate to book this trip!

This trip was amazing - from the accommodation, to the food, to the hotel staff and guides to the huge abundance of wildlife we saw. The Masai Mara lived up to expectations, with the magical wildlife encounters - including watching a leopard drag her recent kill to a tree and seeing a cheetah carrying her tiny cub to an area of safety. Seeing so many lions also made me very happy! Tsavo had less easily seen wildlife, but staying at the wonderful Kipalo Hills more than compensated. What a wonderful place to relax and just enjoy the peace and quiet.
