Amazing experience with the best guide Shafik Topkins
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better trip. From the beginning, everything felt well organized, and Shafik made the experience smooth, safe, and genuinely enjoyable.

the boss and staff are perfect
This travel agency is absolutely amazing! We arrived in Arusha late at night, and they specially arranged an airport pickup for us. The next day, the owner, Alex, came over to greet us personally. The rest of the itinerary was perfectly organized.
Our guide, John, was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and handsome! He took us exploring around the Serengeti for over ten hours every day, and we saw so many animals. The hotels they booked for us were also top-notch—mostly Lemala properties, plus a Melia.
Overall, I highly recommend them! Best of all, they even provided a Chinese-speaking coordinator to help us communicate throughout the trip.

5 star experience
Overall experience was amazing and highly recommended. We were in Tanzania for 6 days and Lion King took great care of us the moment we arrived at the airport until the end.
Our 5 days private safari for 2 of us included immersive game drives around tarangire, serengeti and ngorongoro as well as a visit to a local market. We saw the big 5 and more. The selection of hotels was also to our liking. Pricing was also very reasonable compared to other quotations provided.
Our experience was enhanced with our very knowledgeable and experienced guide, Joseph, and we would like to thank him for our overall 5 star experience.

An unforgettable safari experience
My dad and I had an incredible safari experience. We spent two days in the Serengeti, followed by the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park, and everything was organised perfectly from start to finish.
Even though we only booked a couple of weeks before the trip, Jesca, our contact, did an amazing job arranging everything and accommodating all of our requests. The whole process was smooth and stress-free, which made a huge difference.
Our tour guide, James, was fantastic. He knew all the best spots to find wildlife, helping us see an incredible variety of animals throughout the trip. He was also extremely knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting facts about the animals, parks, and local environment, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
The organisation, communication, and overall service were excellent, and we couldn’t have asked for a better safari. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a memorable and well-planned safari in Tanzania. Thank you to Jesca and James for making our trip so special!
Extremely patient, detail-oriented and friendly.
We just finished an incredible 7-day trip through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Shenga Safaris, and the entire experience was outstanding. From the very start, our operator, Kelvin, was incredibly friendly and super responsive, making the booking and planning completely seamless. Our guide, William, was fantastic—he kept us laughing with his great sense of humor and had an amazing eye for spotting the big animals. Overall, it was a flawless experience and we highly recommend them!

We had an amazing guide, Amini, who was incredibly knowledgeable and great at spotting the animals.
This tour was absolutely amazing. We were lucky enough to see all the animals we wanted to see, including the Big Five! It was an incredibly fulfilling and well-organized tour. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect safari experience.
Special thanks to our guide, Amini !

Very attentive and considerate
Everything went smoothly from the very first contact through to the end of the safari. Knowing that I had booked a one-day trip to Ngorongoro, they made the effort to meet me in person beforehand, which I really appreciated. They took the time to brief me properly and ensured everything was clear.
The pick-up the next day was at 5am, and they were already checking in with me on WhatsApp that early to make sure everything was going well. Throughout the day, they continued to check on me and were very attentive. They also made a real effort to gather detailed feedback afterward, taking the time to listen and discuss my experience.
I truly cannot recommend Golden Memories Safaris enough. I had used another tour operator in Kenya, and the difference in how they treat their clients, from the first interaction to the end of the experience, is very noticeable.
As for Ngorongoro, it’s absolutely incredible. I’m so glad I added it to my trip after visiting the Masai Mara in Kenya. It offers a completely different landscape and experience compared to other national parks, and it’s something I would highly recommend to anyone.
Amazing! We got to see and do everything we hoped for!
Our experience with Lion King was incredible from start to finish. We communicated via email and the operator always responded to any questions promptly and were very flexible with flight changes. However, what really made our trip so incredible was our guide, Khalifa. He was knowledgeable, attentive, funny, and an absolute joy to work with. Our tour was worth every penny and we’re already trying to find a time to return!
