Skilled safari company and guides
Ruphina did an excellent job coordinating both of our Safari trips, and the guides we had were very knowledgeable about where to go and how to see the animals. Much appreciated! Recommend to confirm with Ruphina the exact itinerary after selecting lodge options as that may change other parts of the itinerary as well.

This was our 1st safari with Wildlife Encounters but it won't be our last!
We knew from our first correspondence with Judy, when we were trying to figure out which camp was the right fit for our family, that we were in good hands. Because we were traveling with younger children, we ended up staying at the Tuskers Safari Camp and basically had the place to ourselves. The camp is situated above a watering hole, and we spent countless hours mesmerized by the various animals that came and went right below us. It was amazing!
JD is an expert ranger and Vusi a very knowledgeable tracker. They not only found us a variety of wildlife (even the elusive leopard) but also spent time teaching our children all about the bush. From learning fun facts about the wildlife and terrain to stopping the jeep to look at different animal tracks, our kids had so many stories to tell their friends when we returned home.
The camp itself was clean and comfortable. Every meal prepared by Victory and her team was tasty and memorable. The staff went out of their way to make sure all our needs were met.
We can’t recommend Tuskers and Wildlife Encounters enough!

Great safari with a very knowledgeable guide
We had an amazing week in Tanzania with a safari in Serengeti as well as Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Our guide, David, was very knowledgeable and made an effort for us to see all the different animals we wanted. We got to see the big 5 :). David was also a very good and safe driver.
The roads are a bit bumpy but Lion King has made an effort with extra cushion making it a bit more comfortable. Lion King is also good with the different accommodations and the Nyota Luxury Camp in Serengeti is very personal and nice.
When we asked our children, ages 9 and 11, what they liked they mentioned that David was always happy, that the other Lion King guides we met were nice, that the Lion King jeeps had different names which was fun, and that we got proper lunch during the safari.

Wonderfull experienced guide
We went on a 3 day safari with Gasper and Robert and we had an amazing time! We are a group of families, 5 adults and 5 children. Gasper and Robert were so helpfull and friendly. Communication was easy and quick. Even months before we arrived, I could contact Gasper with any question, safari related or not, and he always helped us out.
They were very welcoming and explained us a lot about nature and local culture. They made suggestions to make the best of our stay but always left the choice to us. We are very thankful for the wonderfull safari and would advice kibokoland adventures to every one!

100% Recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris
We had the MOST INCREDIBLE time on our safari with Tanzania Choice Safaris. Not only did we see 4 of the big 5, leopards were hard to find, but we also got to go on a cultural walk and visit a coffee plantation. Our guide Leslie was outstanding and told us the history of Tanzania and about the animals. Our private tour was a once in a life time experience and we couldn't have asked for a better safari. Brenda is easy to work with and everything was coordinated seamlessly. I've already recommended them to my colleagues that are traveling to Tanzania soon.

They provide us with professional knowledge, enthusiasm and patience, considerate service.
This 18-day journey was absolutely one of our most memorable travel experiences in our life. Before our trip, our communication with Morning Star Tours & Travel was smooth and simple and they offered us with a good deal so we clicked quickly without considering too much. The route organization of this trip was reasonable, starting from Mount Kenya and Samburu, which is situated in the northern part of Kenya. We then visited Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli in sequence, which almost covered all iconic attractions in Kenya. Every two national park tours were separated by a one-day lake excursion, and this arrangement made the whole 12-day safari trip less tired from both physical and visual reasons. From our perspective, all tourist attractions that we had been to were definitely worth visiting, although some animals are shared by some of these spots, these places have their own unique variety of animals as well. For example, we saw three different types of giraffes which differ from each other in different places. The balloon trip in Masai Mara was astonishing and this was a unique experience in this trip for sure. Each camp/ lodge/ hotel during this trip had their own special features, including fantastic geological sites, top food and considerate room service. Our tour guide& driver, Peter Rono, was absolutely a top man, with professional skills and extroverted personality. He could always pick us on time, teach us about the specialized knowledge of all animals and find a nice vision for taking pictures. His sharp eyesight and extraordinary communicating ability helped us to see cheetahs, leopards and lions many times during the trip. We had access to gain a deeper understanding about the development of Kenya and local people through communicating with Peter. Unfortunately, Kenya was affected by people’s demonstration at the days when we were in our safari trip. Thanks to Peter’ s sophistication and courage, he dealt with all potential challenges successfully along the way and kept us safe until sending us to the railway station where we finished our safari journey and took the train to Mombasa. During the last few days in Kenya, we tried scuba diving, snorkeling, fishing and chasing dolphins in Mombasa. We enjoyed ourselves in hotels and drew to an end for this excellent journey. We will recommend Morning Star Tours & Travel to our friends if they want to personalize a trip to Kenya and Tanzania.
