Incredible attention to detail
We contacted quite a few safari companies before our trip, but chose Lion King Adventures because they really listened to what we wanted and gave us an excellent value quote.
Everything about the trip was fantastic, from the accommodation to the seamless organisation and thoughtful touches like complimentary drinks in the safari jeep. We felt completely looked after from start to finish.
But a safari really depends on the guide, and we were incredibly lucky to have Emmanuel Chamboa as ours.
Emmanuel was absolutely fantastic. He was fun, warm and easy to spend time with, but also incredibly organised and knowledgeable. His knowledge of the animals and the parks was impressive, and it was obvious that he genuinely cared about giving us the best possible experience. He was constantly paying attention to what was happening around us, looking carefully for animals and picking up on things we would have completely missed ourselves. You could really see how much experience he had and how much he enjoyed what he was doing.
Most importantly, we felt completely safe and cared for throughout the trip. Emmanuel really embodied pole pole, taking things at the right pace and allowing us to properly enjoy the experience. That relaxed approach made such a difference.
We would absolutely recommend Lion King Adventures, particularly if you are lucky enough to have Emmanuel as your guide. He made an already wonderful trip genuinely special, and we couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience.

Absolutely marvelous team
Topy Tours is one of the best safari companies in Tanzania. Sophia is an excellent organizer and Justine was just the best safari guide we possibly could have. Both were very friendly and with great humour. We went for the 8-day awe inspiring safari and it was actually the perfect time to discover all you can see in all national parks near Arusha. I won’t choose less days. All accommodations were gorgeous and food was excellent.

He was patient, lively, keen and so eloquent.
We decided to celebrate a friend's birthday by doing something different instead of having the usual restaurant gathering. Kenya Tour Budget Safaris provided exactly the kind of adventure we were looking for.
Stephen was our guide, and he contributed greatly to the relaxed atmosphere. He was friendly, organized, and attentive to our group's needs.
We had plenty of opportunities to take photographs and enjoy the surroundings together. At several points, we simply stopped to appreciate the scenery and celebrate the occasion.
The birthday person kept saying that the experience was much more memorable than another ordinary party would have been.
Everything came together nicely, from the organization to the overall atmosphere. We returned with plenty of pictures and inside jokes that continued long after the trip ended.
It was a birthday celebration we will remember for a long time.

Excellent from the outset.
What an amazing experience! This was our first safari, and I can see why people get the bug.
We had seven full days of safari organised through Ozon Light. These days were integrated with our full 25 day itinerary which we had planned, for our trip to Kenya and Tanzania. Ozon Light were excellent from the outset, getting staight back to me with a proposed safari itinerary, which fitted in perfectly with ours. Communication from Ozon Light was very good throughout.
At the start of our safari, we were collected by our guide from our hotel in Arusha and dropped at the end, at Seronera Airstrip in Serengeti for our flight on to Zanzibar. During our safari we were able to include Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Central and North Serengeti. We enjoyed all the parks as they each have their own charcteristics and had something different to offer.
Our guide was Elijah. What a top guy! He was polite and cheerful throughout. He was incredibly knowledgable about all the wildlife and was able to get us to see all the “big five” and much much more! I think we may have frustrated him sometimes... “can you see it yet... no?... oh my gosh!”. The highlight for us was witnessing a crossing during the great migration in Northern Serengeti. Over the course of the week we felt Elijah became a friend of ours... with some fascinating conversation in the evenings. We shared his birthday with him on our safari... and hope that we were able to make up that evening, just a little bit, for keeping him from his friends and family!
I can highly recommend Ozon Light and particularly our guide, Elijah.

Fantastic.
Mimi Kelvin was a great tour guide, plenty of knowledge about not only the animals but also the history of the national parks too. He was a skilled driver, getting us to the animals in good time and providing us with fantastic viewing angles too. Thank you Kelvin for a great experience
