Once in a lifetime experience!
From beginning to end Tom made our trip seamless and unforgettable. The communication leading up to our safari was superb. We all knew what to expect and Tom took care of all our special requests, we changed lodges and he was so flexible throughout the process. Our safari was amazing every day was so exciting, we saw the big 5 plus some rare animals including a serval cat and 2 honey badgers. We cannot wait to go back and will book with Lions Paw tours again. Tom even took care of shipping back our souvenirs so we could enjoy our last day on safari. Thanks again for this unforgettable bucket list experience!
Terrific, friendly and knowledgeable
I spent a week with Emmy traveling to the highlights of Rwanda. In summary, I am hard pressed to believe that there could be anyone better. Emmy speaks excellent English and loves showing foreigners his country, of which he is rightfully proud. He is very knowledgeable about all aspects of interest – history (he does not shrink from the truth), geography, and of course, the animals. He is highly intelligent, innovative (he showed me several things that were not on the itinerary, but well worth the time) and very charming– not insignificant when you are in a car together for hours at a time. In short, highly recommended!

Excellent
The enthusiasm of our guide was contagious but more importantly his knowledge about the animals and where to find them in the park was great.

One week Kenya Safari family trip
We had such a fantastic safari in Kenya with Amazing memories. Dorca was fantastic to work with in terms of organizing everything, working through trip options and her overall communication. Peter was an amazing guide. He gave us options each day. The game parks we visited were magical and the accommodations were fantastic. Our first time in Africa and we can’t wait to return.

A genuine host who really does everything for your experience
We booked the combination of the 4 day Mt. Meru climb and Safari. In here I will only review the safari as the combined package is not an option to choose to review.
For our tour guide we had Nuru who is a true walking encyclopaedia. He knows soooo much about animals and the environment. He can also tell you a lot about the Masai tribe. During our game drives he really took the time to answer all our questions and tell us stories of the animals and surroundings. His favorite slogan is ‘Hakuna matata’ he’s a very relaxed guy and a real professional. Also a very sharp eye. He can spot an animal from kilometers far away.
The jeep safari cars have wifi on board and you can charge your devices to never be out of power to photograph the animals.
The game drives are good but quite long and the road is bumpy (car sickness) so please reconsider this also when booking the safari
It was a great experience but in my personal opinion I would recommend doing the Serengeti 2 days (especially the basic camp sites) en 1 day Ngorongoro as I find the time that you’re in the vehicle very long. And after seeing Serengeti and Ngorongoro I think Tarangire does not really bring that extra’s
When it came to the food. The cook Elija (Bonge) always prepared fresh food for us. The food was always good but sometimes we wished a little more variation. That’s also because the meals were roughly the same during the hike!
Finally, please don’t underestimate or forget about tips. Altough it’s not the biggest amount it can really count up after several days

Absolute ripper!!
Moses made the tour. Not afraid to get in the right spot/location to not only see, but get the best photos with lighting as he considered it all. He also knew a lot of the rangers and other guides, so was constantly getting tips on where more animals were.

Safari 365 offers exceptional service creating a trip of a lifetime.
The Safari trip was planned and executed flawlessly. The communication with the tour planner and operator was excellent and were very responsive to any questions or needs that arose, both before and during the trip. The tours were outstanding, the accomodations were amazing, and the local guides were wonderful.

very quick response time and top organization
The agency was recommended by a friend and I am very happy that I trusted them too. Brian is very responsive in his responses. If there are any questions before or during the trip, he is there to answer them and reassure you if necessary! It was an incredible experience!
I took the 10-day Kenya-Tanzania tour and it was perfect. I recommend everyone to go through this agency to do a safari in Kenya and go through the reserves of Tanzania. I chose the economy version to sleep 2 nights in a tent in Tanzania and it was very immersive, I loved it.
Thanks Super eagles and Brian !

Best Mount Meru tour with Meru slopes!
We did the 4 day Mount Meru climb and afterwards we did the 4 day safari but here i will only witte about the Mount Meru. We make another review about the safari. Our experience about the mountain climb is very good. The day of arrival we got a really professional briefing from our operator and the guide. They checked our stuff and told us everything about what to expect. We underestimated the trip a bit but luckily we had the best guide (Hussein!) and the best porters. Hussein gave us a lot of info. Ofcourse about the mountain, the nature and everything but also about the culture, the tribes, the daily life of the people in Tanzania. Because of the circumstances we decided in colaboration to do the hike in 3 days instead of 4. For us it was sometimes hard and we did not feel well all the time but because of Hussein and the other staff we could make it to the summit. We were very happy with the result and the team of Meru slopes really gave us the best experience! Without them we would not have made it. One last note; be aware of the amount of tips that you are supposed to give. Although we really liked the experience and we understand the tips is really important and welcome for the staff it’s quite an amount of money that you will pay when you already payed for the trip.
