The perfect safari tour in Rwanda with a truly unforgettable experience
My Golden Rwanda Safari tour in Rwanda was an extraordinary adventure from start to finish. The communication with Frank was seamless and efficient, ensuring all my questions were promptly answered and my needs were exceeded. The service provided by our guide Mansoor was flawless and staff exceptional, with his deep knowledge and genuine passion enhancing the entire experience. Considering the quality of the accommodations, the expertise of the guides, and the unique encounters with wildlife, the tour offered great value for money. The reliability of the logistics was impeccable, with smooth transitions between different parks and activities. The highlight was undoubtedly the breathtaking moments spent tracking mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park, complemented by the stunning biodiversity of Akagera and Nyungwe Forests. This safari tour exceeded all my expectations and left me with unforgettable memories.
Lastly this: everyone single Rwandan we met and interacted with was genuinely interested in providing us the the very best experience and as my daughter put it ‘zero attitude’ !

Amazing trip
We have a group of 22 people who visited Tanzania for 9 days which originated by Dancing Zabra Safari company (Jessica with her team).
We had a wonderful time and experience and life time memories.
The trip was well organized and the hotels we stayed in were very nice and all the staff in the hotels were friendly and helpful.

An amazing experience with a knowledgeable guide and a great team
This trip was everything I wanted. Lucas and his team put together an amazing experience with great wildlife viewing, comfortable tents, delicious meals, and wonderful hospitality. Lucas, the owner and our guide, is deeply knowledgeable and offered clear, thoughtful interpretation of what we were seeing. He is clearly passionate about providing a first-rate experience, and we felt we were in good hands from beginning to end. For photographers like me, he was attentive to lighting and scene composition, often putting us at just the right spot for a great shot. The tents are spacious and the bedding is warm, and we enjoyed staying in camps amidst the wildlife. Food was plentiful and delicious, and I appreciated that all food and drinks (including beer, wine, and G&Ts) were included in the price (many tours charge extra for drinks and exclude some meals). I will definitely call on Lucas again when I go back to Botswana.

Ambrose was an exceptional tour guide who went above and beyond to ensure our trip was unforgettable
Gorilla trekking was the best thing I've ever done, truly an unforgettable experience! It was worth every penny. The communication from start to finish was excellent, and everyone we met was so friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Big Apes Africa Safari adventure to anyone considering it!
P.S. I'm already making plans to come back in the next few years

Everything we expected and more!
The pre-trip interaction and assistance was fast, accurate and informative. They built the adventure we wanted without trying to sell us something we didn’t want. The camps were beyond our expectations and all transportation was timely, safe and comfortable. Our guides were great and Sam in Kenya was above and beyond excellent. The animals were amazing and the guides did all they could to help us get the best photos. The trip was fantastic!

Super friendly and everything perfectly organized!
We did a 1-day safari to Mikumi from Dar getting there with the new SGR train connection, which already was very nice.
Everybody, from the people transporting us back and forth to the actual tour guides, was very friendly and passionate about what they do!
On the Safari we saw everything one could wish for, from pumbas to elephants to hippos and zebras, and the tour guides even put in extra effort so we could see a lion!
All in all amazing.

Great!
We had a wonderful experience with Lionking adventures… from the very beginning we had excellent communication: first with Jovitha and then with Rose. They organised an amazing taylor made safari first, and then a wonderful relaxing stay in Zanzibar, including domestic flights and all transfers. Camillus, our guide, is a really nice person, he always took care of us and as my son called him Hawkeye, we could see a lot of animals we would have not be able to see without him! He told us a lot about Tanzania and about the animals.
In the Serengeti we spent three nights in Nyota tented camp: that was something really magic !!✨
I can only recommend to travel with Lionking adventures, a reliable, serious company…they made our Tanzanian experience a real dream!
So thanks to all of the Lionking team, you are great ❤️

Asante Sana Benson Safaris
Words alone cant communicate the BEST safari experience ever .
Our trip was first class in every respect and I would thoroughly recommend Benson Safaris to all .
I will be candid , I was nervous about booking our safari directly, as it was new , we hadn’t been on safari before etc . How wrong was I and , my nervousness was dispelled very quickly.
We were quickly provided with all relevant certificates of approval to operate , licenses etc .
All of my many questions were answered professionally , with patience, understanding and humour.
The team worked hard to secure the accommodation we wanted , one wasn’t available but managed to book for us eventually .
All our requests were gathered and we started to count the days
On arrival at Kilimanjaro airport we were met by our guide Liberatus . One thing I hadn’t really considered was our guide would be part of the family for the safari and we would be in an enclosed vehicle for long periods and how important this relationship would be .
Liberatus couldn’t have been better if hand picked . A really nice guy , pleasant , really attentive and a great advocate for the company . Not to mention he could drive in the difficult terrain and spot game with what appeared no clues . We saw everything and some . We were often first to see game and we were always guaranteed the best place to view .
No sat nav , no maps and not lost once
On our first evening on Arusha we met Benson (MD) who again confirmed what we wanted from the safari , what drinks we would like on board the vehicle etc.
I am a coffee lover and coffee from his plantation was made freshly every day at lunchtime for me by Liberatus .
All accommodation was first class , and way beyond expectations . Food plentiful , good quality and I loved our daily picnic lunches - so different to a working lunch at my desk . Not to mention the hot water bottle on our bed one night at a lodge :)
My husband wanted to camp in the Serengeti - we stayed at the Serengeti luxury tented camp . Wow . The highlight for him was the roaring of the lions . Imagine my surprise when two or three minutes into our drive the following morning we saw a pride of lions (or two ) breakfasting on a buffalo.
Benson met up with us before we left for Zanzibar and gave us a gift of some of the coffee I has enjoyed
I could write much more …. Don’t hesitate to use this company . I would book again in a heartbeat . The only change I would make , would be a longer stay as was the experience of a lifetime… really , and facilitated by Benson and his team

Mandela is very kind, attentive, reliable and committed to offering you a great experience
Mandela took me to Napuru waterfalls in Arusha. It was a great adventurous hike, and he knew his way around the forest like a natural! It was a perfect hike for all levels and lasted a few hours.
He was on time and at the exact meeting spot we arranged, which showed me he's very reliable and punctual.
He also took me to a traditional Tanzanian lunch spot, where the food was delicious and beyond affordable.
Mandela is very kind, attentive and reliable. I would highly recommend him as your guide with Ultra Africa Adventures!
Thank you for the great experiences in Arusha. You and Ultra Africa Adventures made my trip a highlight!
