During harvest we got to walk his vineyard, sample some yummy Cabernet grapes from the vine, and enjoy a wine tasting and top notch lunch, with the vineyard completely to ourselves.
Since we only get to make it out to Napa every 5 years or so, having someone take care of everything for us makes it possible to enjoy every minute of our short time there.
We also visited Far Niete (great cave tour) and Del Dotto (super fun barrel tasting). So Tyler’s vineyard experience had some pretty strong competition, but the behind the scenes personal service, great wine and fantastic lunch beat them hands down.  Plus supporting a local startup vs a hedge fund owned conglomerate just makes it all the better.

It started off with our tour guide Thomas, an archaeologist here in Rome. I had no idea that this was a private tour. We were lucky to have Thomas all to ourselves. He was extremely knowledgeable, very nice and made us feel very welcomed. We learned an immense amount of history as a result of Thomas being our guide. He told us all about the history of the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, the Vatican Museum pieces, the Sistine Chapel, etc. Keep in mind this is a walking tour with the exception of the drive from Rome to the Vatican. Make sure that you wear some comfy shoes and bring some money for lunch and the cab ride to the Vatican. Everything else was included and because of Thomas’ relationship at these historical places, we were fast tracked into everything! For the money that we paid, this was an absolute steal. I highly recommend this to a company and this particular tour.',5.0,'2019-12-31T06:21:42Z','REV-p79QIgo0nV9Wd0jwCGxu55cETzxc7htUomiSEY7iwYk=','en','denisee645','TRIPADVISOR'),('111148P4','The Napa Native Experience','Napa Native wine experience','After our amazing hot air ballon flight our guide Tyler greeted us at our house with 3 glasses of his delicious sparkling wine he made at his winery (only 25 cases).

we also covered historical a city walking tour, swam at a north coast beach, 
visited key museums, shopped(!), ate national dishes, 
recreated a favourite meal, visited two islands in the bay while
a talented band drew audience into the songs ... throughout
we had wonderful warm southern hemisphere weather to 
boost our flagging vitamin D levels.

So much more can be said- prepare to be charmed:

The local women of the villages we were visiting helped us down the rice paddy hills with the idea that you would buy some of their homemade purses, bags, pillowcases etc. once you reached their village. Great to see their homes and culture and a quickly served lunch to tuck into.

We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us. This developed into a friendship we hope to maintain. Encounter Africa should be proud to have such a fantastic employee.

In Tanzania Ernest was our guide and we hit the jackpot in terms of his extensive knowledge and understanding. 
He participated in writing a book about the Serengeti and was often consulted by other guides, even after hours to the point where he told us he was “unfortunately famous!” Ernest assisted another guide who was lost and this incident typified his kind and generous approach to looking after us.

We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well!

Our tour consultant Denis was just fantastic and provided all the information we could possibly need. Even though he is based in Uganda he went above and beyond to help with last minute problems with a visa for Tanzania. We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us. This developed into a friendship we hope to maintain. Encounter Africa should be proud to have such a fantastic employee.

In Tanzania Ernest was our guide and we hit the jackpot in terms of his extensive knowledge and understanding. 
He participated in writing a book about the Serengeti and was often consulted by other guides, even after hours to the point where he told us he was “unfortunately famous!” Ernest assisted another guide who was lost and this incident typified his kind and generous approach to looking after us. 

The whole experience was wonderful and way above expectations',5.0,'2023-09-26T00:48:09Z','REV-icGnVU3TTunTOJa5f7+xMe3jCYaP46h53qPnydJAfPY=','en','Culture63828830840','TRIPADVISOR'),('111206P1','5 Days Gorillas And Game Safari','Gorillas in the Mist','I chose Encounter Safaris bec of all the excellent reviews. We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well!

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of.

However after several emails  we did figure it out the night before.
- The bikes were just  ok. The upright seating was good but they were heavy, clunky bikes, I thought. I chose a bike that had a skinnier seat, as I\'m used to a racing bike .
- To have that skinny seat meant that couldn\'t have a bike with any suspension, and as a result I noticed alot of jarring of the spine over a 40km period. 

- The bike that was assigned did not have a water bottle holder. I asked for one as it already had the bolts in place but was told by the lady that I would have to change bikes. (which meant a big wide seat) Not good.

- The directions given for the self directed route were good with lots of highlights given for excursions. The man (owner?) giving the instructions was fabulous!
 
-We were offered reflective vests for safety. 
- The helmets were well ventilated.
- My husband\'s right bike  handle (the foam cushion part) was rough and torn, so chaffy on the skin.

The Round Stone bike route was beautiful. We had all types of weather over the course of 4 hrs and were surprised by a stunning couple of beaches along the way.

We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well!

However after several emails  we did figure it out the night before.
- The bikes were just  ok. The upright seating was good but they were heavy, clunky bikes, I thought. I chose a bike that had a skinnier seat, as I\'m used to a racing bike .
- To have that skinny seat meant that couldn\'t have a bike with any suspension, and as a result I noticed alot of jarring of the spine over a 40km period. 

- The bike that was assigned did not have a water bottle holder. I asked for one as it already had the bolts in place but was told by the lady that I would have to change bikes. (which meant a big wide seat) Not good.

- The directions given for the self directed route were good with lots of highlights given for excursions. The man (owner?) giving the instructions was fabulous!
 
-We were offered reflective vests for safety. 
- The helmets were well ventilated.
- My husband\'s right bike  handle (the foam cushion part) was rough and torn, so chaffy on the skin.

The Round Stone bike route was beautiful. We had all types of weather over the course of 4 hrs and were surprised by a stunning couple of beaches along the way.

We really did have a fabulous day, just thought that the bikes were a bit heavy, clunky and needed a bit of extra care.

He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well!

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us. This developed into a friendship we hope to maintain. Encounter Africa should be proud to have such a fantastic employee.

In Tanzania Ernest was our guide and we hit the jackpot in terms of his extensive knowledge and understanding.

Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right.

We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us.

We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well!

Our tour consultant Denis was just fantastic and provided all the information we could possibly need. Even though he is based in Uganda he went above and beyond to help with last minute problems with a visa for Tanzania. We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us. This developed into a friendship we hope to maintain. Encounter Africa should be proud to have such a fantastic employee.

In Tanzania Ernest was our guide and we hit the jackpot in terms of his extensive knowledge and understanding. 
He participated in writing a book about the Serengeti and was often consulted by other guides, even after hours to the point where he told us he was “unfortunately famous!” Ernest assisted another guide who was lost and this incident typified his kind and generous approach to looking after us.

We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages.

We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us.

We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered.

That was truly a test; steep, breath-stealing hills and very rocky, unpaved hilly roads. Don’t take the expert hill in the center of the island is my advice. Very uncomfortable, bumpy ride!

Younger people might find it much easier than I did, but unless you’re used to mountain biking in rocky terrain, skip the hard road. The coastal roads have grand views compared to the inland expert road. 
Btw, there is no “tour”. There is no one to tell you about the things you’ll see on the island, nor are there signs except at the fort. If you want to learn about the island, take a horse cart tour. Or a bus tour. Or hire a guide.

There is a wait if you do not pre-book and pre-pay for the bikes.  They also provide free helmets and bike locks.  We had a rack on the back of the bike to hold our backpacks.  We were given minimal information initially about safety features to ride the bikes, but when we asked another employee, he was extremely helpful.  He thought we were joking when we tipped him upon our return.  And, it would be nice if there were mirrors on the bikes.  It\'s hard to keep track of your group.  We saw most people riding regular bikes, and we were SO GLAD we had electric bikes - this is a hilly, hilly island.  This is a beautiful, interesting island.  Wish I spent the night on the island.  Did not get to see all the sights, and bike rental lasts til 6 PM, so you have much more time to explore if you stay on the island.',5.0,'2023-05-31T15:49:09Z','REV-auU/3bkO/17gnU/gSVEPg8E6Ut2uerM6WGJJNjC7G4M=','en','F7168YHlauraf','TRIPADVISOR'),('11121P142','Cycling Inishmore Island. Aran Islands. Self-guided. Full day.','Fun Exercise','We enjoyed the exercise but beware, there are hills!! That said, if you are in reasonably good shape, you can do the whole island if you don’t stop for long anywhere. We stopped at the Dun Aonghasa fort and spent an hour hiking up for spectacular views and as a result, had to take the shortest route back to the Ferry. That was truly a test; steep, breath-stealing hills and very rocky, unpaved hilly roads. Don’t take the expert hill in the center of the island is my advice. Very uncomfortable, bumpy ride! I wasn’t sure my tires would hold out. I’m 71 years old, and fit for my age, but I mention it so you can take that into account. Younger people might find it much easier than I did, but unless you’re used to mountain biking in rocky terrain, skip the hard road. The coastal roads have grand views compared to the inland expert road. 
Btw, there is no “tour”. There is no one to tell you about the things you’ll see on the island, nor are there signs except at the fort. If you want to learn about the island, take a horse cart tour. Or a bus tour. Or hire a guide. 
Good bikes with 21-speed gears. Road tires.

Without Jason the trip would not be as it was.

Our tour consultant Denis was just fantastic and provided all the information we could possibly need. Even though he is based in Uganda he went above and beyond to help with last minute problems with a visa for Tanzania. We were pleasantly surprised when we discovered that the whole holiday was booked for just the two of us.

Patrick, our guide in Uganda, was absolutely wonderful, enormously knowledgeable, extremely kind and considerate. He was also good enough to share some of his personal experiences with us. This developed into a friendship we hope to maintain. Encounter Africa should be proud to have such a fantastic employee.

In Tanzania Ernest was our guide and we hit the jackpot in terms of his extensive knowledge and understanding. 
He participated in writing a book about the Serengeti and was often consulted by other guides, even after hours to the point where he told us he was “unfortunately famous!” Ernest assisted another guide who was lost and this incident typified his kind and generous approach to looking after us. 

The whole experience was wonderful and way above expectations',5.0,'2023-09-26T00:48:09Z','REV-icGnVU3TTunTOJa5f7+xMe3jCYaP46h53qPnydJAfPY=','en','Culture63828830840','TRIPADVISOR'),('111206P1','5 Days Gorillas And Game Safari','Gorillas in the Mist','I chose Encounter Safaris bec of all the excellent reviews. We just returned from a 2 week trip put together by them. My husband was primarily interested in Primates & monkeys. We did Gorilla, chimpanzee & golden monkey trekking, rhinos etc along with various activities and game drives on the way. Denis was quick to respond to my inquiries and patiently answered a bazillion questions. He put together an excellent itinerary! Thank you, Denis!! 

The main star of this trip was our guide. Obed is his name. We got to know him well after being on the road with him for 2 weeks. He was a park ranger for about 14 years & a guide for about 5 years. We managed to see the Big 5 of Africa bec of his expertise and skills! We are sooooo happy! ❤️ We witnessed how good he was in trouble shooting. We encountered some minor vehicle issues and he did his best to get them fixed without causing any delays or problems with our trip. He knows a lot of people and seems to be well received and loved wherever we went. All of them spoke highly of him. Owners, managers, staff & other guides seemed to respect him and his opinion. He always went above and beyond to give us the best experience each day. He was also flexible and sensitive to our needs. But we always deferred and listened to him. And he was always right. On a game drive, he suggested we wake up extra early and we are so glad we listened to him coz those were the days we saw the leopards (yes, plural! We saw 4 in our trip!) and the lions with cubs (7 lions total) His ability to spot these animals while driving is incredible! We learned a lot from him and I was able to help spot 2 of the leopards on our trip 😂

The customer service in most of the lodges and hotels were excellent! We esp enjoyed Mhingo Lodge, Buffalo Safari Lodge and 4 Gorillas. 4 Gorillas, I believe, had the best customer service out of all of them! Staff were quick to respond to any concerns and were attentive. I really needed to pee after a drive and it had started to rain, i ran up the steps towards our cottage and the staff ran after me with an umbrella! They also helped us with our hiking boots and laundry. That’s customer service! Lake Chahafi had a great location on a lake but the road to get to them, was quite bumpy. Papaya Lodge had beautiful cottages and lake views, but customer service was inconsistent. I feel that the staff needs more training at Papaya esp after staying in all the other lodges. I do not recommend Papaya Lodge if you are elderly or have physical limitations coz it is quite a hike to get from the cottages to the main building. You cannot charge your phone in their cottages. Paraa Lodge is older but has maintained it’s old world charm. Our suite was excellent! And customer service was good as well. We absolutely loved Murchison Falls National Park. The Marriott Protea had a great location on Lake Victoria,  but the hotel is kinda dated. The manager, Charles, was very attentive and made sure our stay and needs were taken cared of. 

Overall, it will be very hard to top this vacation. This has been our best vacation ever! No joke. We were delightfully surprised with the warmth and attention we have gotten from the Ugandan staff and people we encountered. 

One final tip, pls be kind and considerate of all the staff esp your guide/driver. Make sure they are rested and taken cared of as well and respect their expert suggestions and tips to make your trip more memorable. Pls also share your pics and videos to your guide, so they can post on the Encounter Safaris IG page or tag the IG page (Lola) . And if they deserve it, pls tip them well! 

Thank you, Obed, Denis and Lola (social media person) And all the staff of all the lodges we stayed at!

Alles was goed duidelijk aangegeven, zoals de parkeerplaats naast de pier, waar je voor 4 euro een dag kon parkeren. Aardige mensen van het schip en een heerlijk zeetochtje. Adembenemende uitzichten zoals in de verte de 12 bens en mooie baaien, strandjes en mogelijkheden ook om te kayaken. Wij liepen de heuvel op naar de fietsverhuur( 700 meter) en kwamen langs een prachtig kerkje. Fijne fietsen gehuurd waar de prijs van meeviel ( 15 euro per dag) en toen lekkere koffie en soep in het restaurant aan de baai genomen. Ik zag dat er in het hotel ook mooie plekken waren op het gras met picknick tafels en erg rustig. De huisjes komen wat sober en eenvoudig over op het eiland.
