Communication was great!
We had an amazing experience going on a 2-days safari tour, with flights, in Tanzania from Zanzibar. The stay at Ikumbi Lodge was amazing and the communication with Joseph couldn’t be better!

Perfect trekking experience, best guide and great local knowledge!
We had the best experience ever on our 4 day gorilla and chimp trekking tour. Everything about it was a success and it beat our expectations, this wouldn’t have been possible without our guide Godwin he was the best he knew Uganda inside out we learnt so much, he was so friendly and kept making sure everything was running smoothly for us. We couldn’t recommend him enough!
Thank you, Blake and Brodi.

Exceptional personalized service and attention to detail
Darren at Compass Odyssey was recommended to us by a friend, and we would without hesitation recommend him to plan your Africa adventure. He was exceptionally patient with multiple adjustments to our itinerary to meet our preferences, and listened carefully to the experience we were hoping to have on this bucket list trip. Our itinerary took us from Cape Town to the usual attractions but flexible enough we were able to fit in a mountain bike ride in the wine region. Whe. The preferred accommodations in Sabi Sands were booked for our dates, he worked tirelessly to find comparable alternatives. The pre trip dossier left no question unanswered, but if there were questions he was quick to respond. Local guides were personable, informative and helpful. We felt well supported on this trip. Not only did Darren and Compass Odyssey meet our expectations, they exceeded them, and truely delivered the experience we were dreaming of.

A reliable and friendly team that made our safari amazing from start to finish!
Amazing Safari Experience!
We had an amazing safari experience! Everything was great from start to finish.
Our manager Avitus was always in touch and ready to help whenever we needed anything. Everything was well organized, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
Our guide Castor was very friendly and told us lots of interesting things about the animals and nature. He really tried his best to show us as much as possible and make our safari special.
We saw so many animals, including elephants, lions, zebras, leopards, giraffes, buffaloes, rhinos, and many more! It was an incredible experience, and we enjoyed every moment of it.
We definitely recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. Thank you, Avitus and Castor, for a great trip!

Best safari experience
I booked this trip for my mom and I for her birthday. I had looked at several operators to begin with but Lion King stood out the most and I’m so glad that we booked with them. Communication and payment was fast and easy, the itinerary was customizable and it more than exceeded our expectations. The safari itself was SO incredible. We saw the Big 5, our guide Exaud was truly incredible and went above and beyond in every single way. We also learned so much I felt like we were on a private National Geographic safari episode! I truly feel like there’s not one thing that could have been done better, it was everything and more that we could have asked for.

A well-organized and professional tour operator with excellent service and friendly staff.
Our four-day safari with Siafu Safari was an absolutely unforgettable experience. We witnessed some truly breathtaking moments in the wild: a leopard eating a gazelle high up in a tree, a lion walking between safari vehicles with a blood-covered face and paws, with freshly killed wildebeest nearby. Several animals came incredibly close to our vehicle, making the experience feel even more special.
Our guide, Raymond, was fantastic. He was friendly, funny, and attentive to our wishes, striking just the right balance between sharing his knowledge and allowing us to enjoy the moment. He was always happy to answer our questions without talking unnecessarily, and his driving was excellent, which made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip.
We also spent the night at Siafu Lodge, and we were equally impressed. The lodge is beautiful, modern, new, and spotlessly clean, with a lovely garden and spacious rooms. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and friendly, and the food was delicious.
Everything was wonderfully organised, and the combination of an incredible safari, an excellent guide, and such a lovely lodge made our trip truly memorable. We would highly recommend Siafu Safari and Lodge to anyone looking for an outstanding safari experience!

Excellent!
We had a great time during our Pilanesberg safari tour thanks to Martin. He is such a positive individual and very knowledgeable not just about wildlife but also great angles where we could experience the animals in their natural habitat.

Amazing communication and smooth trip!
We used Morning Star to book our honeymoon to Kenya and they did not disappoint! The communication with Doreen during the booking process and during our trip was amazing we felt so well looked after and she really made our whole trip super easy.
Our safari guide Stephen in Amboseli was on time and delivered a great experience. James, our safari guide in the Masai Mara was outstanding. He brought great vibes, knowledge and really went above and beyond to set up a great coffee spot in the Masai Mara as he knew we would love it! The staff at Kibo Lodge and Mara Maisha were so friendly and welcoming we loved our stay at both lodges. And our final stay at Swahili beach was the perfect end to a brilliant honeymoon.
Thank you Doreen, Stephen and James!
