Great overall experience and an amazing trip.
We really enjoyed our time and overall experience with Lush Africa Safaris. We did a 12-day Rwanda/Uganda Trek to see the Mountain Gorillas (Uganda) and Golden Monkeys (Rwanda) followed by a Safari in Nairobi National Park --> Maasai Mara --> Serengeti --> Ngorongoro Crater --> Amboseli. The only thing is I wish we would've added just one more day onto Serengeti, but the overall trip was amazing. Our guides Yves, Julius and Daniel were amazing. We got all of the Big 5, entire Prides of Lions, Kilimanjaro views one morning, and true upclose and amazing experiences with the gorillas and monkeys. We did the Hot Air Balloon in northern Serengeti (well worth it).
Also -- don't get too hung up on bringing a camera -- we used our iPhone / Samsung Galaxy and the pics were AMAZING. Didn't use our camera at all actually.

Amazing honeymoon experience!
We had an incredible experience with Lion King Adventures! We booked with them for our honeymoon and are very happy with our choice. They were incredibly informative and responsive with any request regarding packing, expectations, etc. Our guide, Shafino, was the best of the best. His knowledge of the animals, the ecosystem, and the culture can’t be beat. We got the full safari experience and couldn’t be more grateful for this once in a lifetime experience!

The full safari experience!
My husband and I went on our honeymoon to Tanzania and we were lucky enough to have Shafino as our guide. We got the full safari experience! We were able to see and do more than I could’ve expected going into our trip. We saw the big nine and so much more! Not only can he spot things from a distance, he also knows the roads like the back of his hand and is able to navigate quickly to the hot spots where the action is happening. He has a wealth of knowledge of the animals and their habits, and was an incredible teacher. Shafino has a good heart and a real passion for the safari experience. We are going home from the trip of a lifetime with so much gratitude and so many amazing memories!

Excellence
From start to finish, everything super well organised. The vehicle was top notch, water is given to ensure everyone is well hydrated for the exciting adventure. The lodge was all the amenities that are needed in an adventure like this and the food is also perfect.
A huge shout out to Kevin, our driver. Masai Mara has all the animals that everyone dreams to see, but finding some is no easy job, unless you’re Kevin. Always close to best animals and he also managed to place the vehicle in the best place to spot lions, leopards, buffalo’s, etc.
10/10, would repeat again!

An Ethical and Unforgettable Safari Experience in Kenya
I had a wonderful experience with Super Eagles Travel and Tours. The service was excellent from start to finish — we were warmly welcomed, the food was tasty, and the rooms were clean and comfortable.
The staff was incredibly professional and friendly, always ready to help and make our stay enjoyable. One of the highlights of our trip was our amazing guide, Benson. He was not only kind and courteous but also highly skilled as a safari driver. Thanks to his sharp eye, we managed to see four of the Big Five in just one day — all except rhinos, which are not present in Amboseli.
The safari was conducted ethically, with great respect for nature and the animals. The agency proved to be reliable, and the overall value for money was excellent.
I highly recommend Super Eagles Travel and Tours to anyone looking for an authentic and responsible safari experience in Kenya.

Incredible experience with Raheem Mwema
It’s been an incredible time exploring the nature. Raheem Mwema with his positive energy and his patience make the trip even more pleasurant.
We saw the big five and also lots of animals. The hotels, the food, the service, the parks, the road trip, all was incredible.
It’s been a wonderful experience I would repeat with the same guid. I highly recommend him.

Experienced. Super polite. Fantastic gudie and great to spend time with.
We had the most incredible experience with Serengeti Smiles, thanks to our amazing guide, Hussein.
From the moment we met Hussein, he was polite, welcoming, and immediately made us feel comfortable. He has a real gift for reading people (hard to explain, but he just knows when to give you time to soak up a moment and when to move on to find the next adventure).
Our itinerary was Tarangire National Park on day one, Ngorongoro Crater on day two, and Serengeti on day three and each day was unforgettable. Hussein always seemed to know the perfect spots for photographs, often placing us right where the best light and scenery came together. His experience really shows: he knows when to stop, when to keep driving, and how to anticipate animal movements for those once-in-a-lifetime sightings.
On top of that, Hussein is an incredibly skilled driver navigating some very tricky terrain with complete ease and making us feel safe the entire time. The little touches made such a difference too, like the thoughtful surprise of a chilled Coca-Cola waiting for each of us every day.
It was clear throughout the trip that Hussein genuinely loves what he does, and his passion, experience, and kindness made our safari something we’ll never forget. We couldn’t recommend him and Serengeti Smiles more highly!

7 days Masai Mara/Nakuru/Navisha/Amboseli
We had a fantastic experience overall and a big part of that was thanks to our incredible tour guide, David. He was extremely knowledgeable, patient and kind throughout the entire trip. He went out of his way to make sure all eight of us were comfortable and happy, constantly checking in and doing his best to accommodate everyone’s needs. We had some challenging individuals in our tour group and he remained professional and upbeat. His enthusiasm and attention to detail made the safari memorable and I would absolutely recommend David as a guide.
The tour itself was exceptional value for money and very reasonably priced, especially considering the range of experiences included.
That said, I do feel that some aspects of the tour organisation could be improved. A hotel I had booked and paid a deposit for was changed at the last minute due to an office error, which was disappointing. On our first morning, we were collected at 7:30 a.m. but then spent nearly two hours at the booking office waiting for other clients which wasn’t and an ideal start to the trip.
We also found that a significant amount of our time was spent waiting around for other people. While it’s understandable that travellers have different interests, our group included people with very different itineraries, lengths of stay and destinations. This meant frequent detours to pick up or drop off other guests, which slowed everything down and wasted lots of time.
I would humbly suggest that the company consider grouping travellers with similar itineraries and durations together, or perhaps introducing fixed departure days. This would make the tours run more smoothly and ensure that guests make the most of their time and illuminate logistical errors. For example, we arrived at Nakuru National Park at 6:30 a.m. but had to wait nearly two hours before entry because the office had booked the tickets for the wrong day. These kinds of organisational errors really added up and I genuinely believe that with better planning, the entire itinerary could have been done comfortably in 6 days and 5 nights rather than the 7 days we spent.
Overall, we had a great trip and David was absolutely outstanding. With some improvements to the logistics and scheduling, this tour could easily go from good to exceptional.
