Eagle eye game spotter, who took care of us so well!
You can book most lodges through most of the safari companies, but the safari company you choose is important. Brian, from Paul’s was responsive to all my planning questions and requests. Our safari guide Victor is outstanding, he took care of our every need while spotting so much wild life. He is knowledgeable of the history, the animals, the culture. Amazing person who ensured we had a great experience. If you are unsure and are looking for a very reliable group to deal with the team from Paul’s was always on time, always responsive, always wore a smile. I would highly recommend working with Brian and requesting Victor as your guide. You won’t be disappointed.

Thorough and organised, best experiences offered
The experience was amazing and we visited Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naiwasha and Amboseli, with an experienced and seasoned guide - Jack, who knew everything before it even happened, and had extensive knowledge about where animals go and where to find them. The company answered all of my questions, including those outside the safari remit.

Amazing food, great guide, rainy season adventure
There were two things we loved about Lion King Adventures:
1. They easily were willing to setup whatever trip we wanted. They helped us do a small plane flight to the Serengeti rather than drive which gave us more time to see the animals. When we ran into some unforeseen weather difficulties, they did everything they could to make sure we still saw everything we wanted to.
2. We were really concerned with the food, especially with my celiac diagnosis. But we actually a pretty good food experience! We did learn however that your food experience depends on the lodge you stay in. Our first couple of nights we stayed at Land of Nature and ate so well (tasty vegetables, hot food for lunch, made gluten free rice donuts and breads for me). Our second lodging experience was still good but felt a bit more rushed and wasn't kept in the same nice warm thermoses that we had at Land of Nature. That may have also been because it was our last day and we were a bit behind schedule. We also had to take breakfast boxes that morning, and even though we noted I had a gluten allergy, my box was full of gluten-ful breads.
If we were ever to go on safari again (which I truly hope we do!) I will not hesitate to book with Lion King Adventures again. Our experience was phenomenal. We felt so taken care of and had a very magical experience.

Made our safari the best experience
The staff are super nice, accommodating, and flexible. They do everything they can to suit your needs and preferences. The guides of this tour agency are incredibly experienced — we always felt fully safe with them. Our guide Jack made our experience unforgettable by putting a lot of effort into finding all types of animals and showing us the very best of the safari drives.
We saw incredible wildlife, and Jack’s knowledge and enthusiasm really brought everything to life. The whole tour was well-organized, and we felt looked after from start to finish.
I would highly recommend this agency to anyone planning a safari — especially if you want a personal and high-quality experience. 10/10

Our August trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park with Zamunda Travels was an amazing experience! As a local female traveler with my two kids, I felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the journey. Our guide, Blair, was knowledgeable, friendly, and very patient with the children, making the trip both fun and educational. We truly enjoyed every moment and highly recommend Zamunda Travels and Blair for a memorable family adventure.

SP where awesome, the best guide!
We went to tarangire, ngorongro and lake manyara and it was incredible. Got to see every animal we wanted. Elli, the guide, was super nice, knew everything about the parks and animals and was very flexible, really a great guy. The company was great and answered fast, also value for the money! The one thing that was not the best was the lodge, I think that it maybe was our room in specific but it could have been fresher. Other than than, perfect.

I made use of Erimpala safaris for three days. I like to see the common world of Africa. Plants and birds. I had seen several times the animals in the parks. Now I like to see the small things. Erimpala organised three days for me. We walked in parks of Arusha and we saw orchids inside the town. the other day we made a hike on mount Meru near Tengeru and the last days we went to see the Materuni waterfall on the Kilimanjaro.
I was very content.
They had good guides.

Value for money with this operator. We went on a safari with Christoph, who has been guiding for 19 years and is incredibly experienced. He seemed to know every corner of the Masai Mara, which made the whole experience even more impressive. His knowledge and confidence made us feel in great hands, and we got to see so much thanks to his expertise. Truly an unforgettable safari experience.

Short but amazing safari!
We only had 3 days for a quick safari with friends and I’m so glad we chose Civet Adventures. The communication during the booking was very clear and everything went smoothly once we arrived. No stress at all.
Huge shoutout to our guide, Jeremy. The guy is a pro. He knew exactly where to take us to see the animals and was really patient with all our questions. We had a blast and the views were just incredible. If you're short on time but want a quality experience, definitely check them out. Thanks Jeremy!
