15/10 experience
I was a little worried about using a company to book our long awaited South Africa trip but Mel at Safari made the experience incredibly simple and fun! I feel like we are best friends now 😅 she has answered all of my questions and has given me very good insights as to what to do and where to go even before we actually check into our lodge. I highly recommend Mel and Safari's services.

Mel was amazing
Mel was amazing. Knowledgeable, fast to reply, highly professional and pleasant to work with. I would use her/them again and would suggest others do the same.

Unforgettable Uganda safari
I was privileged to have been able to experience a wonderful trip through Uganda. It definitely was a lifetime-best travel experience. There are simply too many highlights to list here, but these included several spectacular top-notch game park drives, interesting cultural experiences, great overnight stays, and many more (*including, of course, the gorillas*). Thank you to Mel at safari.com who put the itinerary together. She proactively managed all of the bookings and flights (including having had to deal with flight time changes). And she worked with Exclusive Uganda Safaris to make this happen. So, this wonderful country, her professionalism and the outstanding local safari operator made this trip unforgettable.
