We had a great experience with OT and Lee. We were with a group of 11 and everything was super
We had a 2 days/1 night safari in Moremi. Our crew was top. We saw the most beautiful animals and a lot of Moremi. We like the flexibility of Theo and his crew. The campsite was like home, the food was great. The best experience ever. Thanks

Fantastic Honeymoon
We just returned from our honeymoon trip with Africa Safari Classics and we had an amazing experience.
When we first looked at going on a safari trip to Africa we quickly noticed how many operators and different options we had to choose from. It seemed like a very difficult task to decipher what was going to be the best option for us, but luckily we found Maurice at Africa Safari Classics.
Maurice is the most helpful person we have ever worked with in the travel industry. He helped us plan and customize the perfect honeymoon experience for us, and then once the trip started he made sure he checked-in with us several times to make sure that everything was going well. We were lucky enough to meet Maurice in person in Kenya at the beginning of the trip, and he also took time out of his day to meet us again at the end to make sure that we were happy with how things went.
Maurice set us up with Joseph who was the perfect safari guide for the type of animals and birds we wanted to see on our trip. Joseph was such a great resource in pointing out all of the various mammal and bird species, and he always made sure that we were safe and had plenty of time for photos.
The attention to detail and level of service that we experienced with Africa Safari Classics was amazing. After we confirmed our flight details we didn't have to lift a finger. The airport transfers, luggage handling, hotel/lodge reservations, transportation, park fees, etc. were all handled by Maurice and his staff, and everything was made extremely easy for us. Basically all we needed to know was what time we would start the game drives each morning!
We give Africa Safari Classics our highest recommendation, and whenever we decide to take our next trip to Africa we fully plan on contacting Maurice again!

A truly fulfilling and breathtaking experience
I am so happy I decided to book my safari with LEM Carnivores.
Our tour guide was Samwell, who has 12 years experience. He was a great driver who kept us safe and lead our little clan of 6. His passion for wildlife was clear, as he taught us about each animal we spotted throughout the national parks. We had so many breathtaking experiences, including animal interactions, baby animals, animal families, and territories. We saw a group of elephants scare off three lions, we saw hyenas digging their teeth into gazelle flesh, we even saw cheetahs playing around and relaxing... Two of them JUMPED on the back of our truck (and many others) on top of the spare tires! Not to mention seeing how fast a cheetah can run to chase and catch its prey!
Samwell was also a great guide to life in Tanzania. For example, we were able to learn so much about many tribes within Tanzania (I believe there are 120), such as the Maasai tribe whose people live off the land, including within Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Parks! You will see many members of the Maasai tribe throughout your safari!
Throughout the camping trip we were provided breakfast, lunch, and dinner by our wonderful cook, Benson. Dinners always included tea and coffee, popcorn, soup, bread or rolls, a vegetable dish, a meat dish, rice or pasta (or ugali), and fruit. Everything (including the breakfasts and lunches) was so delicious!!
Overall, my experience on safari was indescribably beautiful and I am so thankful to LEM Carnivores!

Amazing Safari
I took the five-day safari and it was amazing. I got to see so many magnificent animals (Elephants, Zebras, Lions, Cheetahs, Hippos, Giraffe, etc). Seeing the animals in their natural habit is something everyone should do at least once. Mohammed was super responsive and even picked me up and dropped me off from the airport. He arranged for Lucas to show me around Arusha. Both thought me some basic Swahili, which was really useful for the trip. The Swahili langue is really fun with words like Mambo and Jambo meaning hello. I highly recommend this safari.

THANK YOU for a wonderful experience
We wanted to thank you for the wonderful trip you organised for us.
All the accommodation was fantastic, clean, great food, exceptional service in all the lodges, although Victoria falls hotel service, was a bit of a let down in the dining areas. Everything was organised exceptionally well with transfers and we had zero issues as first time travellers to Africa. Everybody was super friendly, with lots of great advice, knowledge and experience. I must say we thoroughly enjoyed the Houseboat in Chobe National Park and we consider this a highlight of our trip. Thanks for influencing our decision to go Victoria Falls (Magical) and the BOMA dinner (my daughter and Bill really got into it) as it would have been a shame to miss out on this.
Thanks for putting up with all our questions, changes and for us THANK GOD we had an experienced Safari specialist that consulted with us, had a point of view to help us make the right decision.
The recommendations and insights you gave us really made the perfect trip for us as first time visitors to this beautiful country and we cannot wait to return.
Thanks again

Fantastic Reserve: Full of Animals, Not Full of People
Selous Game Reserve is a real jewel, full of wildlife and birds and intriguing flora with the added bonus of very few visitors. I stayed at Asilia Africa's Roho Ya Selous and it could not have been better. As a solo traveler, I look for places which allow me to be on my own (for meals or individual safari vehicles) and Roho was very accommodating. I could do as I pleased.
Selous' geography, with its river, plains, and abundant flora was a completely different experience than the Serengeti. I saw many hippos, giraffes, lions, and baboons there, along with the always-charming impalas. You will see almost all the great predators (if luck is on your side!).
The Northern Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater are fantastic to see; but if you are looking for a safari that does not resemble a drive-through 'zoo', with countless other vehicles surrounding a beautiful animal, Selous is worth visiting.

A fantastic experience
The wildlife and the landscapes were amazing, the weather was colder than we expected, the accommodation was fine. Our guide and cooker were so kind and they knew a lot of things. The food was so good!
