We had an absolutely incredible experience with Akondo Adventures!
From the very beginning, Tassiana provided us with outstanding 360-degree support, tailoring every single detail of the trip to our needs with amazing flexibility. She truly designed the perfect custom itinerary for us. The accommodations and meals were fantastic and perfectly suited to our preferences.
Once on the road, our driver Rama made our safari unforgettable. Thanks to his expertise and guidance, we got to see all the animals and enjoy the experience to the absolute fullest. He managed every moment of the trip perfectly. Additionally, our Toyota Land Cruiser was exceptionally comfortable and fully equipped with every amenity we could need.
We couldn't have asked for a better team. We highly recommend Akondo Adventures to anyone looking for a seamless, personalized, and magical adventure!

Excellent Chobe safari tour
We had an excellently organized tour with Fuhara Safaris. Casper was our guide in Zimbabwe. He helped us with border control formalities, so we had no stress at all and he was very attentive and entertaining all the time. After we crossed into Botswana our Chobe National Park guide was Kumar and he told us so many interesting things about the park, animals and nature. We saw many animals - elephants, giraffes, young lions playing in the river, grey backed jackals, etc. We had a delicious buffet lunch in a luxurious hotel restaurant with incredible views to Chobe river and the final part was the Chobe river safari which was so exciting to us - we saw elephants grazing in the river halfway submerged, also hippos, crocodiles and so many birds, monkeys and antelopes. We are grateful to our guides for the excellent safari day we had in Chobe.

Brilliant
We had an absolutely fantastic safari experience from start to finish. Everything was incredibly well organised, ran on time, and the whole trip felt seamless.
A special mention goes to Neema in the office, who was superb throughout. There was one small mix-up with our rooms, but it was sorted out quickly and professionally with no fuss.
Our guide, Damien, was outstanding and really made the holiday special. Nothing was ever too much trouble. If we wanted more safari, that was fine. If we wanted less safari and some time to relax by the pool, that was equally fine. He tailored the trip to what we wanted rather than following a rigid schedule.
There is naturally quite a lot of driving on a safari, but the journey was broken up with well-timed coffee and comfort stops, making it very enjoyable. Damien always went out of his way to make sure we were having a great time. He was fantastic with our children, always punctual, smart, and professional, and never pressured us into visiting shops or attractions we weren’t interested in. We really appreciated that, as sometimes on holidays you can feel like you’re being taken from one sales opportunity to another—but that never happened here.
The hotels were excellent, with friendly, attentive staff, and everything was ready for us whenever we arrived. Every part of the trip was well organised, allowing us to relax and enjoy the incredible national parks and wildlife.
To top it all off, we were lucky enough to see the Big Five, which made an unforgettable trip even more special.
We genuinely loved every minute of the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this safari company to anyone considering a trip to Tanzania.
It’s just fantastic
First of all the driver is very kind and his driving is top notch,information was perfect the car is clean and perfect

Easy to deal with and knowledgeable, they made sure we had a great safari tour
Our guides Raymond and Raphael were super knowledgeable about all the animals and plant species within the park and happy to answer any questions we had. The safari trip was comfortable and we managed to see all the big game specis which was very impressive. Food was great and everything about the trip was easy

Great tour for solo travelers to feel included
The tour was great, Peta the guide was very helpful explaining everything. We managed to see 4 of the big 5 so mother nature was on our side. And even though I was by myself I felt very included in the group.

Competent and trustful operator for a dreamcast safari
We contacted Lion King Adventure for a quote to have a 7-day safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro areas. We worked alongside Elia and Florida to prepare our trip. We selected Lion King upon recommandation and have not regretted it: they were in the same price range as the other we had contacted, but proposed accommodation that seems to be a bit higher in standard. Communication with Elia and Florida was usually flawless with the team through WhatsApp, which is convenient.
We had a last-minute problem with a person of our team having her flight delayed by 24h so Lion King had to re-arrange a chauffeur and a hotel night for her, which was done properly.
The accommodation were really nice, all lodges and hotels were really comfortable. Lion King has its own brand of lodges "Nyota" and even if we could not attend the Nyota Serengeti for renovation reasons, we got moved to another high-quality accommodation, with outstanding views. We were among the first guests of Nyota Rift valley, which is absolutely stunning with, here again, extremely warm and welcoming staff.
Speaking of people, our guide Djabiri was absolutely amazing too, he highly contributed in the success of our safari: he gave us advice regarding the timetable, gave us some time when we needed, was really knowledgable regarding wildlife and local customs. We got lucky enough to see the Big Five thanks to him, as well as a few other hard-to-spot animals. We just regretted not to be able to see the Great Migration, but we were a bit too late for that and the gnous were a bit too far away in Northern Serengeti for the round-trip to be worth it! We'll have to come back and will definitely contact Lion King Adventures to do so!

Safari Soles Serengeti 7-day trip
This Safari Soles trip was phenomenal. A family of 4, we enjoyed all the Serengeti had to offer and thought the service provided was exceptional, from start to finish.
Our guide Japhet (Jeff) Kiwelu went above and beyond to ensure our family was taken care of in the highest manner possible.
Truly a trip of a lifetime!
