Experienced, knowledgable and friendly.
Prior to our hike up Kilimanjaro we went on safari for 2 days also organised by Almighty Kilimanjaro. We visited the Tarangire national park and the Ngorongoro crater.
Mohammed was our guide and we could not be more thankful for the amazing experience he gave us. Not only was he friendly and knowledgable about the animals and environment in the national parks we visited but he also gave us so much information about the regions we traveled through to get to the parks including the local culture and tribes we passed.
We were so lucky in our animal encounters with so many close up experiences with elephants, giraffes, zebras and a female lion walking along the road with us.
As we visited in June, just after wet season, the grass was long and some of the animals were slightly more difficult to spot but Mohammed remained in radio contact with other tour guides and if any animal sighting was reported ensured we got a front seat view. This allowed us to have a fantastic view of male lions and hippos.
The accommodation overnight was private and comfortable with an acrobatic and musical performance after dinner.
We were accompanied by a private chef named Abu who always had a smile and made us delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner and also provided snacks so we never felt without.
Would highly recommend.

Unforgettable trip with Omar
We went on a 5-days budget safari with Omar as our guide. The trip was amazing, we saw big five and all the other animals that can be spotted in those parks. Hundreds of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, around 20 lions with cubs, 3 cheetahs (one with cubs), a leopard, crocodiles, hyenas, serval, hundreds of hippos and flamingos and even 6 rhinos. Not mentioning many species of monkeys and birds. Omar is a great guide, he has many years of experience and extensive knowledge of all the wildlife. He gives lots of interesting information and answers all questions. He is also the best spotting wildlife, and approaches it in a respectful way. Our car had a pop up roof which allows to see wildlife in the best way, it was also spacious and comfortable for a group of six. Accommodation was comfortable and food was freshly prepared every day and delicious! Even in the middle of Serengeti we had a table cloth, ceramic plates and everything served in silverware (Whereas most other groups were eating sandwiches and packed lunchboxes). All in all it was an experience of a lifetime and I’d recommend it to everyone. I’ll be definitely coming back with Omar again.

Excellent tour operator for all kind of tour in and around VicFalls
The provider offers a great variety of activities in and around Victoria Falls, including boat cruises, helicopter flights, safari trips (e.g. Chobe in Botswana) among others. The prices are competitive and offer great value for money. All drivers/guides were really nice and pleasant to spend time with. A big plus was the flexibility they offered, given that I needed to plan some activities quite spontaneously. The service was very reliable, communication was easy both in person and on WhatsApp. All picks ups and drop offs were completely on time. Would definitely book with them again!

Could not have been any better!!
For us our safari commemorating our 50th wedding anniversary, was long in the making. It should have taken place last year, the actual year of our anniversary. But planning a trip with your whole family, I.e..sons, daughter in laws and grand children (9 in all), proved to be too complicated, nevertheless we did it for this year. Between last and this year I found Lamara Tourism and with them we engineered the whole trip. Alternatives going back and forth until we came to the perfect trip. Wilkister (Willy) at Lamara did a magnificent job in proposing and arranging the different alternatives. The trip itself became a hit greatly thanks to our 2 drivers, Ben and Francis, helpful and knowledgeable about the animals all the way. Adults and specially the grands children loved them. You go on a safari, I recommend you check out Lamara, and if you go on one, ask for Ben and/or Francis. You can not go wrong. One special event to mention: one of our daughter in laws had read somewhere about a wedding vow renewal celebration and blessing by a Masai elder. Mentioning it to Willy she took care of everything and the ceremony was one of the highlights of one of our trip.

Good value, friendly and reliable service
We booked our 3-day safari experience with Tekko Tours (2 days Maasai Mara, 1 day Lake Nakuru) and were extremely pleased with the service offered. There was flexibility in our choices, including dates and where we wanted to stay, which made us feel in control of our booking. The value for money was good, as we had had a wide range of quotes when booking and Tekko seemed the most reasonable for the mid-range quality that we wanted. Communication ahead of the tour was a little slow, with us having to chase to see how we go about making the final payment for the tour, but this was not a significant factor. The tour itself was a great experience!

A Great Tour
This was such a good tour from pickup to drop off. The accommodation was comfortable with a hospitable host and the safari tours were all great with very knowledgeable guides. Although I missed out on the leopard sighting, the guide was doing his best to find it, spotting its tracks as we went along. Oh well, better luck next time!

Great safari provider and guide for a trip of a lifetime.
We had an amazing 5 day group safari with Suricata. We saw the Big Five and so much more. Our guide, Ezekiel, was so knowledgeable, he even knew the names of the many birds we saw. I was impressed with his insights into the animals and their habitats. He was a safe and excellent driver.
The lodge was 5 star resort with a beautiful pool to relax in after game drives. We saw zebras running by while we were in the pool.
Hot meals were provided at all meals and were very tasty.

Supportive flexible guide
We were a group of 10 and had two cars. I was mostly with Mr. James who is an excellent guide.
He is also flexible to our requests and tries to effectively utilise the entire time. During the safari he is in constant communication with other groups through phone and wireless radio system to ensure that we do not miss any opportunities.
I would like to thank and appreciate Mr. James for his support.
