Loved this trip. The Ugandan people we met along the way were friendly and helpful. The wildlife was amazing and plentiful. The gorilla and chimpanzee tracking was what this trip had been about, was worth spending the money on if you are wanting to see them in their natural habitat and have a close up experience. We had an amazing encounter with a gorilla group of 10! Highky recommend this tour.

What a great trip we had and have nothing but praise for this tour operator and how our Guide Lova and our driver Deva looked after us. We had so much fun with them. Accommodation and food was all good. Vehicle was good and managed those terrible roads really well. The National Parks are something and the local guides that were chosen there were excellent. We were given lots of chances to walk and explore the villages and anything of interest along the highway.

Kili climbing... was certainly one of a kind life experience. The perfect conditions to challenge yourself and find your inner peace and strenght. It is hard to describe really, you have to live it to understand it!

I recommend this trip for anyone who seeks true adventure and wants an immersive experience, you're going to love this. I was very happy with our guide Barnabus, most pleasant and engaging. The Madagascar tour provided access to wonderful scenery and ample opportunities to connect to people. I won't sugarcoat it, there are a couple of challenging days with long bumpy rides but the destinations were always worth it. The days spent traveling by boat were fantastic. So glad I signed on for it and really enjoyed the small group I was traveling with.

My husband and I recently returned from a eight days safari in Tanzania, the wildlife was really exciting. We saw many animals in the nature. This was one of the best experiences we ever had. Everything was organised perfectly. Accommodation was superb and the game drives were exceptional. A special mention to our guide for being amazing. He was very friendly, but at the same time he also allowed us plenty of time to ourselves. I really suggest to you to do this.

Our 15 day Explore trekking holiday through southern Madagascar was everything we hoped for and more. The insights into Malagasy life, culture, history, landscapes and wildlife we gained via the exceptional commentary and organizational skills of our guide Armand, made the trip so enjoyable. We ticked every box without effort seeing nearly every species of lemur, chameleon, gecko, snake and bird across many National Parks.
The 4 day hike in Andingitra National Park including the summit hike to Peak Boby was a highlight, and we all appreciated the information, assistance and singing from the local porters and guides. In addition, the group was invited into a local school and a local home which was totally unexpected but very special. Once at Ifaty, the Spiny Forest with its cacti and giant Baobabs was well worth the visit and we were grateful to our driver for getting us there in time for a tour and spectacular sunset.
Unfortunately our stay in Ifaty was cut short by a day due to flight unavailability but Explore arranged additional activities in Tana. Of course our ‘Super-guide’ Armand made the best of this change and allowed people some flexibility with what they chose to do.
The accommodations throughout the 15 days were well selected with a mix of styles and features but all with the necessary comforts and services (without going over the top). The staff were always very happy and friendly and willing to cater for any special requests of individuals or the group. The meals for us omnivores were ample and varied enough and always safely prepared. Access to more interesting vegetarian dishes was a little less more tricky but at the end of the day no one went hungry.
All-in-all our tour of Madagascar was amazing and its people were the most hardworking, ingenious and happy people ever, despite the ‘poverty’. Our guide Armand (and our skillful driver and navigator-of-potholes) plus all the other local guides and porters, allowed us to learn so much about this unique country. They all helped make our trip an experience we can’t wait to share and promote to others. Madagascar is certainly a ‘country less traveled’, particularly by Australians (we didn’t meet any Aussies in 4+ weeks). “Come on Aussie” - it’s right next door.
Thank you Armand - the best guide ever, and thank you Madagascar - may you preserve and expand your native forests and continue to protect your precious wildlife.
Veloma Madagascar!!

1) Airport pick up from Mount Kilimanjaro airport to moshi: excellent and on time. Eli is a safe driver.
2) 7day Lemosho route: guide, Good Luck, was professional and caring. Helped checked luggage pre-trek to ensure I have all equipment and clothing, potential risk assessment for the hike. Most importantly he helped me to reach the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro successfully despite being 4 hours later than everyone due to my slow speed.
3) Team: one guide, one chef, (Amos), one waiter (David). These were the main people who spoke to me. Great English. 4 porters who helped me as I was walking like a snail and had some slight toe injuries. Full team was very attentive to my needs and preferences of food, comfort level, questions about anything about Mount Kilimanjaro. Very friendly and patient crew.
