Everything was excellent
Fadi’s driving skills are extraordinary! He also knows everything about the animals we met and has a very good eye for hidden and far-away animals.
The whole tour was very well organized, we had three wonderful days!

Unforgettable experience
I recently had the incredible experience of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, organized by Mountain Warriors, and I cannot recommend them enough! From start to finish, the entire trip was nothing short of outstanding.
Special acknowledgment goes to the entire team who made this adventure so memorable. Our two guides, Sam and Justin, were phenomenal—true professionals with years of experience. Their knowledge of the mountain and their motivational support were invaluable, especially when I started feeling the effects of altitude sickness above 5000 meters. Without their encouragement and expertise, I wouldn’t have made it to the summit.
The admin support from Rosemary was seamless, ensuring everything ran smoothly from the very beginning. The cook deserves a standing ovation—the meals were delicious and kept us energized throughout the climb. And of course, the porters were absolute heroes, carrying everything with a smile and making the whole experience so much more enjoyable.
Beyond the exceptional service, the beauty of Kilimanjaro is truly breathtaking. The team’s infectious positivity and attention to detail made the journey fun, safe, and unforgettable.
If you’re considering climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, do yourself a favor and book with Mountain Warriors. They are a remarkable team, and this adventure would not have been the same without them. A well-deserved five stars!

Clinton was attentive, well organized, quick to respond and figure out solutions when needed.
I recently returned from an unforgettable 6-day safari in Tanzania with Ozon Light Tours, and I couldn’t be more impressed by the entire experience. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and ran smoothly, thanks to the incredible efforts of Clinton and his management team. Having read a few negative reviews about other companies, I was initially a little skeptical, but Ozon Light Tours exceeded all my expectations.
The itinerary was packed with highlights, including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti National Park—each location offering its own unique beauty and wildlife encounters. The accommodations were excellent throughout, each providing a different, but equally memorable experience.
However, the true star of the trip was our guide, Abrahim. From day one, he was not only fun and engaging, but his deep knowledge of the wildlife, culture, and landscapes truly enhanced our journey. Abrahim is clearly one of the most experienced guides in the region, and it was evident by the way fellow guides would light up when they saw him. His ability to find and track wildlife was astounding, and we were able to see everything we had dreamed of and more. At times, it felt like he had a sixth sense when it came to spotting animals! His passion and expertise were contagious, and my wife who was moved to tears during our farewell—it was that special.
The vehicle was top-notch—well-maintained and very comfortable, which was critical since we spent so much time in it. We even had a day where we weren’t feeling well, and the whole team was incredibly accommodating, ensuring we were comfortable and taken care of.
All in all, this safari was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Ozon Light Tours played a huge role in making it unforgettable. The professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for what they do were evident in every aspect of the trip. Without a doubt, if I were to do this trip again, I would choose Ozon Light Tours in a heartbeat.
6 stars, no question. A trip we’ll never forget!

Not thrustworthy, you should not believe a word they say.
We booked two safaris with Pride of Africa in January 24 for our Kenia holiday in October 24.
Just about two month before the trip we were informed by Stephen, that the park fees for Masai Mara have been raised and that we have to pay a higher price for the safaris. On my complaint, that the higher fees have already been officially released by the time of the booking they said that they expected the government to not really stay with these higher fees and so they did not integrate them into our price and that we will have to pay the higher fees. Finally, we agreed that I will pay some higher amount, but not the full difference and I got the assurance from Stephen that we will find a good solution for both of us when we are there.
Finally the good solution was that I was told to pay the full additional amount and that otherwise they will not start the safari. This really felt like fraud to me, because in this position there was no other way out for me than paying the amount and the obviously knew this in advance.
After my complaints after the tour Stephen promised me several times to talk to his boss again and make sure that I will get a refund (I have this as a written statement!).
Now it is already three month later and I did not get anything than more and more empty promises.
If you ask me for my recommendation it will be that you should not believe a word the say and even be careful with what they write.
Additionally it turned out during our tour, that many of the described and booked parts of the safaris will just not happen, as it is absolutely impossible to do all this in the given time frame and driving distances. And again, I am sure that they of course knew this advance. Don’t get me wrong: Our guides did a good job and in general it was a nice and unforgettable trip, it was just more expensive with much less safari parts than promised before.
To get a good feeling about the honesty and trustworthiness of Pride of Africa Adventures just look further down in these reviews where you will find a review from Phelix from October 24. Everything you read in this review is a lie. Neither has Phelix booked a tour nor was he there with his family. Actually, he was one of our guides and I took the photo that shows him at the boundary stone to Tanzania. If you look at the attached photo you will see the same guy at the same location at the same time. This review is just a fake and maybe a good description of the business of Pride of Arica Adventures

Thank you for this unforgettable trip
We had Lion King plan an 8-day private safari (mid-luxury) according to our wishes. Very friendly and short response times as well as personal tips and suggestions made the offer complete in a short time. The payment processes ran smoothly.
Our tour guide/driver was Hamadi, who did an excellent job the entire time. We felt that we were in good hands at all times and always knew that we could rely on him. His driving style was safe and experienced. We were simply delighted with his reliable, courteous and competent manner.
We not only learned a lot about the flora and fauna, but also about typical local topics. It was a carefree time in which Hamadi took care of everything and organized everything perfectly. Individual and breathtaking game viewing made our first trip to Tanzania an unforgettable experience. The recommended lodges on the tour were excellent.
After the safari, we spontaneously planned a follow-up day in Arusha with the Lion King office (city trip and coffee tour with Clemency Nanyaro). Simon from Lion King accompanied us and also made this day a very special experience. Including background music during the trip. :-)
Florida not only showed great customer and service orientation here again, but also helped us with our follow-up stay in Zanzibar.
Many thanks to Lion King for the great planning, organization and handling of the trip, which we can recommend unreservedly and 100%.
We miss our lunch times with Hamadi and the flamingos at Ndutu Lake
Thank you - Nadja & Christian

The entire journey was a masterpiece of adventure and relaxation.
Traveling with Rochar Africa Expeditions was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Phinorah’s professionalism in planning every detail ensured we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Saitoti, our guide, was phenomenal—he had a remarkable ability to spot even the most elusive animals and shared countless interesting facts about Kenya’s wildlife and ecosystems. We were lucky to see the Big Five, including a leopard lounging in a tree and a herd of elephants crossing the savanna. The accommodations were luxurious yet perfectly integrated into the natural surroundings, providing a sense of tranquility and comfort. The entire journey was a masterpiece of adventure and relaxation.

Amazing safari! Highly recommend!
I enjoyed the 3 day Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater safari - mid range lodge option - in January 2025.
My experience with Crater Explorer Tours and Safaris was absolutely immaculate from start to finish!
I’d like to extend a massive thank you to Emanuel for organising this trip for me! Emanuel was professional and responsive at all times and organised everything that I asked for.
The inclusion of airport transfers and hotel stay before and after the trip was greatly appreciated and very helpful!
The tour itself was incredible! Amazing sightings, guide, and wonderful food and accommodation. I even received a wonderful upgrade to my accommodation on my final night in the crater as the original one that was quoted to me was booked!
I am so grateful for this tour and the amazing company that Crater Explorer Tours and Safaris is. I highly recommend them if you are planning a trip to Tanzania!

Super fast on every request
The tour with them was perfect, everything went good from the organization to all the single people and guides we met. Unfortunately the train on the way back stopped due to electricity problem but that is not their fault and they provided us the transportation at the time of our delayed arrival. Thank you!
