Posted on Lisa HVerified Trip of our dreams! There are simply not enough words to express how extraordinary Edward with Excess Africa was on our recent dream journey through Uganda and Tanzania. From the moment we arrived, every detail—transfers, hotels, in-country flights, activities, meals—was handled with flawless precision, integrity, and genuine care for our comfort and enjoyment.Eddie is far more than a guide; he is a true ambassador of his homeland. His deep passion and vast knowledge of his country, culture, and especially its incredible wildlife were evident in every moment. What made it even more special was his own childlike wonder—he seemed as thrilled and mesmerized by each sighting as we were. And what sightings they were: thousands upon thousands of animals, including the famed Big Five.We placed our full trust in Eddie, and he exceeded every expectation. From the grand moments to the smallest details, his dedication and heart shone through. This is a true family business, and you feel it immediately—the warmth, kindness, and sincerity are woven into every interaction.We’ll never forget the too many to count thoughtful touches: the beautiful welcome gifts from Excess Africa, the soft blankets and pillows that made our journeys so comfortable, access to WiFi, the cleaned vehicle every single morning, the full meal setups overlooking incredible safari sights, the sparkling toast (non-alcoholic for us!) in elegant crystal flutes to celebrate the end of our adventure—how he managed to keep such luxuries on safari will forever remain a mystery.This was truly the trip of a lifetime. Thank you, Eddie and Donna, for everything- especially your help and patience in distributing the soccer balls and school supplies to those in need (I will never forget those smiles) and your care and love for my parents. You will forever be family to us. May endless blessings be upon you. If you’re considering a trip to Africa, do not hesitate to put your trust in Excess Africa. It will be the best decision you’ll ever make.Posted on Gabriela MVerified Amazing safari in Tanzania We just returned from an amazing safari experience in Tanzania. Our incredible guide was Eddie Mnele of Excess Africa.Before our trip even started, Eddie began communicating with us to make sure that he developed an itinerary that covered all our goals and expectations for our trip. His patience and responsiveness gave us piece of mind and confidence that our adventure would be a meaningful and enjoyable one.Upon arriving at the Kilimanjaro airport in Tanzania, Eddie was there to greet us. His warmth and friendliness set the tone for our upcoming journey.The accommodations reserved for us by Eddie were clean, comfortable, and absolutely beautiful. The safari vehicle was also clean, well maintained, equipped with Wi-Fi and stocked with cold drinks and snacks for us to enjoy on our trips in the bush.Thanks to Eddie’s keen eye and expertise, we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, hippos, and so much more. The highlight was seeing the wildebeest migration. Eddie knew exactly when and where to go to see the migration and we viewed it from front row seats. In addition to the wildlife, Eddie took us to local communities to see the various traditions including the Maasai tribe. Learning about the local cultures and the people’s way of life added depth and richness to our experience. On top of Eddie’s professionalism, he is also a truly warm and wonderful person. His has a great sense of humor and endless energy. He kept us laughing throughout the journey giving us 100% and then some. He exceeded all of our expectations. If you are planning a safari in Tanzania, we can’t recommend Eddie Mnele and Excess Africa highly enough. He made our trip a memory to cherish forever.Posted on EileenVerified 8N7D Safari Trip in Tanzania 2 years ago, I began planning for a trip to specifically catch the river crossings in Tanzania during the Great Migration in early September and I'm extremely thankful to Eddie for reaching out to me and offering wonderful advice so our trip could materialise this month. Our trip began with a very nice surprise at the Kilimanjaro airport carpark where Eddie and his wife had prepared a welcoming table of breakfast refreshments. Throughout the trip, Eddie ensured all our needs were well taken care, especially where food, drinks and all logistics were concerned. The lodges that he helped us book were beyond our expectations - rooms were very spacious, facilities were excellent and staff hospitality was superb. Eddie took us on full-day game drives as well, and we managed to catch several epic scenes of wildlife, including THREE wildebeest crossings over a span of three days in the Serengeti, something that I would remember for life. Seeing a river crossing up close was one of my prioritised bucket list activities and I am so grateful to Eddie for making it happen for me and my parents. Thank you SO MUCH!!! If you are still considering to engage Excess Africa for your safari trip to Tanzania, do not hesitate for Eddie will spare no efforts to offer you the safari trip of a lifetime!Posted on Shruti NVerified Unforgettable Safari Experience – More Than Just the Great Migration! I went on a 9-day safari with my parents, primarily to witness the Great Migration — but what we got was so much more than we could’ve ever imagined! These 9 days were filled with the most incredible wildlife sightings and magical moments. It truly turned out to be the best trip of our lives.A huge part of what made this experience so special was our guide and friend, Edward. From the very beginning, his passion for nature and love for his job was crystal clear. He was full of energy every single day, genuinely excited to show us everything he could. His deep understanding of animal behavior meant we were always in the right place at the right time — from heart-pounding chases to serene scenes straight out of a documentary.If you’re considering a safari, I can’t recommend Edward enough. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and care made this trip absolutely unforgettable. Thank you, Edward, for the memories of a lifetime!Posted on Robin ZVerified Beyond my expectations - Safari of a lifetime. My 11yo daughter and I had the most amazing safari with Edward. He made sure to understand what we wanted to see and tailored the entire trip around that. He knew exactly where each type of animal was likely to be found, and even managed to find the elusive tree leopard on our final day.We passed many other safari companies during our trip and witnessed lots of bad behaviour from other guides (going off the path onto restricted land, getting too close to the animals, etc). Edward has a respect for the animals and the land that is not always found with the big chain safari companies. His passion for his job comes through in everything he does.This is not my first safari - I know they can be filled with many hours of not seeing anything while you travel in/out of the park or deeper into the park to find different animals. That is why I was so grateful for Edward. He was a delight to spend time with - talking about safari, culture in our different countries, life in general. And he created such a wonderful connection with my daughter and kept her engaged the entire time.Our trip with Edward created many happy memories for which I'm so grateful. I highly recommend booking with Edward for an authentic and rewarding experience.Posted on Annie PVerified Trip of a lifetime! Trip of a Lifetime! Eddie (Excess Africa Owner) custom planned our 10 day trip and was our driver, our expert guide, and the most thoughtful and generous host! The great thing about Tanzania is that we saw EVERY animal in their natural habitat (no fenced game “preserves”) - in every major part of the country. However, this means there’s lots of driving and spending time WITH your guide, so they really make or break your trip!Eddie took exquisite care of us every step of the way, including providing hot lunches (with table, cloth and chairs!) in private spots with incredible vistas. Custom Safari has been his profession for many years, and he knows everything about the wildlife, geography and even all the birds!We couldn’t have enjoyed our trip more and Eddie was “THE Key” to our superior experience. Traveling and doing Safari in Africa is risky, meaning it can go very badly without having the right plan and the right guide. Eddie was recommended to us by a trusted friend and we whole heartedly recommend him without reservation to anyone wanting to Safari in Tanzania.Posted on AliceVerified Tanzania As soon as we landed in Tanzania, Eddie, our guide from Excess Africa, treated us like VIP guests and by the end of our three and a half week stay, we were like family! Thanks to Eddie we had an unforgettable African journey. I’ve been back (home) for over a week but I think about Tanzania every day and I miss it a lot. On the first day of August, we drove around the northern end of Serengeti. In the AM, we waited to watch the wildebeests make their way (stampede) across the Mara River which runs through both Tanzania and Kenya. It was quite the sight. Later in the day we saw giraffes, elephants, baboons, hippos, and vultures. We also saw a carcass (baby wildebeest) up in a tree. A leopard had left its remains there (skin and hair) after devouring the insides. By evening, during a sudden downpour, we watched a crocodile eat his dinner (a bloated wildebeest.) What a day! We were able to see so much action on our game drives thanks to Eddie’s keen eye. He knows a lot about animals and can spot them from a distance. He’s very knowledgeable and he understands the patterns and behaviors of every animal. One day, when we came upon the remains of a carcass, he knew what killed him, when it was killed, how it died, which animals had eaten the leftovers (carrion,) and identified the exact species of the dead even though the body was mangled and unrecognizable. He can immediately spot blood patterns and break down what happened at the scene just by looking at the excrement left behind by the frightened prey. We saw so many beautiful animals throughout the safari. Tanzania is a truly magical place and I enthusiastically recommend Excess Africa!Posted on shelley kVerified Safari trip: A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Outstanding Guide I had the privilege of going on an unforgettable safari recently, and it wouldn’t have been the same without our special driver Eddie. His deep knowledge of the wildlife, keen eye for spotting animals, and emphasis on responsible and respectful interactions made the experience truly remarkable. From lions to elephants, every sighting felt like a privilege. A huge thank you to our guide for tuning this safari into an educational, thrilling and awe-inspiring adventure that I’ll forever cherish.Posted on ALinnahsVerified Safari adventures in Tanzania Eddie is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate and thoughtful. Each day he continued to surprise us with new and varied experiences and wildlife. Over the course of two weeks, we saw 63 lions and innumerable other animals. A trip to remember for a lifetime! Thank you Excess Africa.Posted on RickG08Verified A personalized safari at its best We had a wonderful trip with Excess Africa. I was most impressed with Eddy’s expertise in securing great accommodations, and finding wildlife. Great food, warm, wonderful guide in this family owner business. They have my highest recommendation.
