We booked safari from Aug 19th till September 1st, visiting Masai Mara and then Uganda. From the beginning, Jackson communicated promptly and clearly to all questions, no matter what time of the day. We started the journey in Nairobi, our guide was Allen who is quite knowledgeable about animals and roads of Masai Mara, made sure we experienced the Great Migration. Highlight was watching mother Cheetah and her 3 Cubs. Next stop was Entebbe, Uganda. Jackson arranged for our luggage to be transported via Jeep otherwise we would have payed $300 for excess baggage (baggage weight limited to 15kg for 2). In Uganda we saw the origins of Nile, Chimpanzee trekking, and big 4.During our Uganda Stay, our guide was Geoffrey, extremely knowledgeable of the country (politics,geography,nature,roads) but most importantly kind and considerate. My husband got ill during the trip, Geoffrey took us to community hospital at night and stayed there throughout to ensure that Peter gets the right care. In Entebbe, both Jackson and Geoffrey took care of his medical needs and we will always be grateful.
Despite the medical set back, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The flexibility of itinerary was helpful, enjoyed nature, appreciated hospitality and kindness of people of Uganda. We feel that we got more value for the money. They delivered more than we were expecting.We are planning to return in July 2022 to do Gorilla Trekking.
