My time on safari in the Serengeti was nothing short of magical—an unforgettable journey into the heart of Africa’s wildest wilderness. From the moment we set out at dawn, the vast plains stretched endlessly before us, alive with the drama of nature. Witnessing a pride of lions lazing under acacia trees, tracking a herd of wildebeest during their great migration, and even catching a rare glimpse of a leopard in the golden light of sunset—each moment filled me with awe.
What struck me most was the raw beauty and balance of the ecosystem. The early morning game drives, with the cool air and distant birdcalls, felt like stepping into a documentary come to life.
The Serengeti is more than just a safari destination—it’s a place where time slows down, and you truly connect with nature. Hearing the roar of a distant lion at night, sleeping under a blanket of stars, and feeling the thrill of spotting the Big Five in their natural habitat is an experience that stays with you forever. It’s a reminder of how extraordinary our planet is and why it’s so important to protect it.
If you ever get the chance, go. Not just to see the wildlife, but to feel the spirit of the Serengeti—the untamed, the timeless, and the utterly breathtaking.
Finally, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our guide and driver, Loth, for his wonderful companionship throughout the journey. Thank you for helping us spot wildlife, providing detailed explanations, and sharing insights into local culture and daily life. We wish him all the best in the future!

Wisdom is a one talk active and intelligent guy.
Wisdom definitely knows the park very well and he made it worth coming to visit. His general knowledge surprised us and we learned allot. We saw animals we didn't think we would see. Thank you for making our day one that we will not forget.

Made every single moment unforgettable for us
We had such a wonderful experience with Jungleroam Safari. Especially our tour guide, Moses. From the very start, he was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel comfortable and excited about our trip. What really stood out was his dedication—he listened carefully to what we hoped to see and do, and happily adjusted the itinerary to match our interests. Whether it was adding an extra stop to catch a sunset, spending more time at a particular spot we loved, or sharing local stories and hidden gems along the way, nothing ever felt like too much to ask. His enthusiasm was contagious and made every day feel special and personal. Thanks to his effort and flexibility, our trip felt less like a packaged tour and more like a journey crafted just for us. Truly an unforgettable experience, and we couldn’t recommend him & Jungleroam safari more highly!

Experienced, knowledgeable, friendly
I really enjoyed working with Morningstar safaris. Communication was fast, Emmie was super helpful, itineraries were very detailed and customizable. The game drives at Masai Mara were excellent. It’s obvious that George has been working as a guide for many years as he was very knowledgeable and knew the best spots and routes to take. We were able to see 4/5 of the big 5! (Except rhino). Both accommodations were very nice. Overall we had a fantastic first time doing a safari and would love to come back in the future !

Great experience
We had the absolute pleasure of spending a week with Jackson as our driver and guide, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was an excellent driver—always safe and reliable—and his knowledge of the area was truly impressive. During the game drives, he managed to find every animal we hoped to see, thanks to his incredible eye and experience.
Jackson knows the roads like the back of his hand, and his warm, friendly, and cheerful personality made every moment with him enjoyable. It was a real joy to have him with us throughout the week. We wholeheartedly recommend Jackson and his company to anyone looking for a top-notch safari experience. Thank you, Jackson!

Professional and trustworthy.
We had 5 nights and 6 days of safari with Serengeti Smile and visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and lake Manjara. We also visited two tribes and got to join them hunting with bow and arrow. It was an amazing experience. Our guide Yona was very friendly and made sure that we got to see the big 5 up close.

Unforgettable 9 Days - Kenya & Tanzania
It's a blessing to be in touch with Lizzy from Leobeast. Started with a skeptical mindset of venturing to these unfamiliar countries, but with Lizzy's prompt replies and assurance, it built the trust and confidence that we shall be in good hands.When we touched down in Nairobi at midnight, our crazy minds kept worrying, What if no one is out there waiting for us? But the minute we stepped out of the airport, we saw Edward smiling with my name on the board. Thereafter, everything just went smoothly. The next day we met Lizzy before we moved on with our guide to Maasai Mara. Food and accommodation arrangements were all as promised in the itinerary. We had 4 exciting days in Maasai Mara National Reserve and Lake Nakuru National Park, where guide Johny chased at a fast pace, ensuring we got to see the Big Five. Thanks to him, our dreams came true. Another great experience to share was the hot air balloon. Best view with sunrise and perfect champagne breakfast. Trust me, it's worth every single penny. Not to mention we get to know new friends too being on the same tour. As we bid farewell to others, we move on to Arusha, where we later met Abraham, our guide in Tanzania - Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. As our excitement already burst in Kenya, we were surprised to see different sights in Tanzania. Yes, more animals with families and cubs. This trip to Kenya and Tanzania has broadened our perspectives, and it is certainly true that seeing is believing. Maybe next Uganda?
Thanks Leobeast for this wonderful tours and safaris experience.
Note: love local beer TUSKER - Finest Kenyan Lager since 1922

Amazing
Victor was an absolutely outstanding guide on our private tour of Pretoria. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and brought the city’s rich history to life at every stop—from the impressive Union Buildings and Mandela statue to the Kruger House, Church Square, and the striking Voortrekker Afrikaans Monument. His passion for South Africa’s heritage and his warm, personable approach made the day unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—highly recommend!

Highly recommended!!
What an amazing experience! The trip was well-organized, full of unforgettable moments, and we saw so many animals — elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes, hippos, and even a cheetah in the Serengeti.
Big thanks to our guide Raphael – friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about what he does. He knew exactly where to go and made the whole trip feel special.

worth the money for the quality service - compared to previous experience
Always consider what you want & how much you are willing to spend, remembering travel companies use local tour operators to provide the service. Consider the country you are visiting & can local tour operators be hired instead of international companies, we had priced the exact same trip with another operator who was more than 35% more for the trip
Pembury Tours, Kerry who supplied the service, arranging the trip was excellent throughout & was available during the trip when required for questions or advice. We did 16 days Southern Africa Explorer with Botswana & Victoria falls.
- Cape town, Durban, Natal battlefields, kruger NP, Blythe Canyon, Chobe Game Reserve.
Communications were always clear & immediate during the research phase with Kerry, & was very helpful with suggestions as well as receptive to our needs or requests. never forced any thing for a sale, gave recommendations & while we did do a lot of research. it ended up with probably one of the best trips we have had.
Service was class, never once was told speak to the local tour operator to solve - we didn't have a contract with them, she & Pembury would solve everything immediately & most of the time the outcome was better than the original. We had a bad experience previously, when our main tour operator said speak to the local operator- we have nothing to do with it.- unfortunately they had been very good as well, up to the last trip & they were the ones who were 35% more.
we were happy for the value of the trip & accommodations that were selected, knowing the limited time in the hotels, but wanted to have certain amenities, that was also nice with Kerry, we gave here what we were hoping for & almost all the time- the requirements were filled at reasonable cost.
On arrival, overall hospitality of the driver & the welcome package we received as a gift as well as full itinerary printed in detail, with more detail information & pictures & explanations of all the areas, including wildlife you would see as well as history of some areas we would visit.
Each part of our tour, we were presented options are various levels for example the Kruger NP, the number of game reserves, accommodations & costing- if we did again, we may consider a different park, as seeing other tourists pictures later on our trip, it seemed that there wildlife experience was better, but thats something can changed hourly, seasonally, then if you wanted more privacy & quiet.
great experience overall & wouldn't hesitate using or recommending Pembury Tours again- great job Kerry.
