He is a quality person who takes his job seriously.
From the moment we arrived at the airport and met with our tour guide, Peter, he was professional, knowledgeable, kind, and he made our experience unforgettable! We saw so many animals and enjoyed our time to the fullest. We felt safe the entire trip and could not have had a better experience. We hope to come back and do another tour with him in the near future. You will not be disappointed with Venture Migration Africa and with Peter as your guide.

The trip of our life with Loren African Safaris
Doing a safari with Loren African Safaris has without a doubt been the best decision and one of the most incredible experiences of my life. From the very first moment, they took care of every detail and everything we needed.
Our guide Joseph was outstanding. He knew absolutely everything about the animals and had an impressive ability to spot them, even when they were hidden in the grass. Thanks to him, we were able to enjoy the wildlife to the fullest and learn so much during every drive. Whenever we told him we wanted to see a particular animal, he wouldn’t stop until he found it and made sure we had the best views.
The accommodations they arranged exceeded all our expectations: both at Mvuli Lodge and Haven Migration Camp we had a wonderful experience, with excellent service and top quality. The food was always abundant and delicious, both at the lodges and in the lunch boxes during the safari.
The safari vehicles are perfectly equipped with a pop-up roof to enjoy the views, power outlets to charge devices, and even a small fridge to keep drinks cold. Everything was designed so we could make the most of the experience!
We also spent one day hiking to Materuni Waterfalls. The walk itself is beautiful, and when you finally reach the big waterfall at the end, it’s truly breathtaking. And if you’re brave enough, like I was, you can even take a swim – though the water is quite cold as it comes directly from Mount Kilimanjaro.
After the safari, we also organized a few relaxing days in Zanzibar with them, and once again everything was perfect: punctual transfers and a beachfront accommodation with spectacular views.
I can only express my gratitude to Benjamín, Joseph, and the entire team at Loren African Safaris. If you’re thinking about going on a safari, don’t hesitate—book with them and get ready to live the trip of your life.

Simply Outstanding
Visiting the gorillas in Rwanda has been a longstanding bucket-list trip for my wife and me. We decided that this was to be the year and so we asked Shadows of Africa to design a tour for us to go to Rwanda but also to add on a safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania.
We were lucky to have been assigned Karin Maki as our consultant as she was so helpful and patient with our wishlist and frequent changes of itinerary. We really felt that her entire focus was on making sure that we got what we wanted. She was responsive to our questions within a few hours and kept in touch with us while we were on our trip to check that everything was going as planned.
Karin’s planning was meticulous but it was matched by the Shadows of Africa team’s execution. It was outstanding - everyone turned up every day at exactly the time they were supposed to, everyone was smiling, patient and keen to ensure that we were happy with our safari.
In Rwanda our driver was Jeanisse and she got us to the mountains and back with absolutely no drama even though the roads were occasionally tricky with many slow moving vehicles. She also arranged a couple of surprises for us to celebrate our wedding anniversary which we very much appreciated.
In Tanzania, after a briefing by Dennis to welcome us, we met our driver Eugen. When he picked us up to take us to the Serengeti he asked us what we particularly wanted to see. We told him that we really wanted to see the big cats and within 3 hours of entering the Serengeti we had seen lion, serval, leopard and cheetah twice - once on a kill. We were totally blown away by that experience and it simply underlines how the team at Shadows of Africa were absolutely dedicated to making this trip the best we have ever had.
Eugen was very responsive to any requests we had and was flexible in the starting times each day depending on how we felt. One day he organized a morning drive with a stop for coffee on the plains and in the afternoon we repeated the experience but this time with a glass of wine while we watched the sunset - absolutely magical. Eugen knew the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater so well and with him as a guide we saw pretty much everything we wanted to - and more.
My wife and I have travelled the world over the past 40 years or so and we’ve experienced some fabulous trips and destinations but this ranks as one of our best ever trips and that’s entirely due to the Shadows of Africa team - they were all just fantastic.

Unforgettable experience!
If you are looking for a great experience, look no further!
We started with a slight hiccup, but Naomi was extremely professional, handled everything with empathy, helped us patiently.
Emanuel, the owner was very nice, he personally made sure to greet us and to explain the itinerary.
But the biggest shout out is to our safari guide Khaled, the animal whisperer. He drove safe, he knew the answer to every question about the wildlife and he somehow was able to spot every animal from the distance. We got to see the big 5, cheetahs , leopard babies etc.
An unforgettable experience. Thank you!

Outstanding
We had an amazing 3 days / 2 nights at Camp Lilac. From the start, communication with Merice was outstanding : quick, kind and always helpful. The luxury tent was super comfortable, with the best bedding we’ve had on a trip, and the food was great. Our guide Michael made the safari unforgettable with his passion and knowledge. Excellent value for money, highly recommended, 5/5!

From the very beginning, everything was so well organized, and all the details were taken care of, which made our trip smooth and stress-free. The agency was attentive, professional, and always made sure that we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves.
A special thank you to our guide Ezekel, who truly made the experience unforgettable. His knowledge, kindness, and enthusiasm added so much to the trip. He not only guided us through breathtaking landscapes and incredible wildlife sightings but also made every moment enjoyable and memorable.
We are so grateful for the effort and care that went into making this safari such a fantastic experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better agency or guide, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly seamless and enjoyable safari adventure.
We will be using them again for our next safari trips in other countries.

Massai Mara group tour as great as we hoped
We had two amazing days at Massai Mara with our guide & driver Ben as a part of our longer Safari tour. As we asked beforehand, individual arrangements were made for us for the camp and the itinerary. Organization was pretty smooth and due to Ben's experience and efforts we were able to see almost all that Mara has to offer (from all the herbivores to lions, leopard and cheetah) in one afternoon and one full day game drive.

Amazing attention to detail
We booked Dav Safaris because we wanted to support the local community.
Our tour guide was so knowledgable and helpful with every aspect of visiting the gorillas and chimpanzees.
We recommend them highly!
