Exceptional Safari Experience
We booked a 5 day Safari with Camping in the beginning of July and couldn’t be more happy about the whole experience.
The booking process and any questions have been handled promptly by Safina via WhatsApp. Whenever we had any questions she was available 24/7 which made this exciting trip so much easier for us.
Our tour guide Calvin was exceptionally knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. For every animal that we saw he gave us insights around that animal and told us interesting facts. In addition he mastered the tough roads in and around the various parks very well and we felt safe with him a 100% of the time. Thank you Calvin for this unforgettable journey. You are so kind, fun and professional and we could really see that you love what you do! We wish you only the best for your future!
We weren’t sure what to expect regarding the food with camping but our expectations have been far exceeded. Richard and Erick performed miracles with the food and it really felt like a home away from home. Special thanks to Erick for the entertainment during the dinner service, we really appreciate the family like atmosphere. We had so much fun together!
We want to mention the camping experience as well! Camping in the middle of Serengeti and up the mountains in Ngorongoro was a very unique and special experience that we will never forget. You can be sure to be safe during the night, there’s hot showers, clean washrooms and a thousand stars in the sky!
All in all we can recommend this trip a 100%. The process was swift and easy. The guide exceptional. And the food phenomenal.
We are so grateful for how kind everyone was and for bringing us closer to the Tanzanian culture! We can’t wait to be back in a couple of years!
All the best,
Markus and Diana

From start to finish exemplary service.
Met at the Airport with a big smile and a handshake at an untimely hour my adventure began. Nic gave me a brief rundown of what to expect over a very cooling beer in the pub. Friendly, sociable and what turned out to be a friend for life. Small group made a difference as we went over the roles, the bikes and route. Nothing was ever a problem as I was well and truly welcomed in to the Meander Uganda family. Wildlife was amazing with tour guides provided where appropriate. Landscapes and routes were epic. I have to say thank you to Nic and his team for a genuine holiday of a lifetime.

Perfect for honeymooners
The safari organized by Lucas was awesome and in budget. We were able to visit Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Accommodation and meals plans were premium.
Lucas is a very experienced guide who knows all parks and is very talented at finding animals and sharing his knowledge about Tanzania.
Definitely recommend him!

Very professional and friendly, an incredible experience!
Everything was arranged in advance, but we had flexibility.
Arnold helped us choose a bespoke experience and we saw everything we wished to see.
Accomodation and food were brilliant.
Cannot wait to do this again!

Meanda Uganda is a trusted and enjoyable adventure tour operator. They provide unforgettable trips
Adventure Motorcycle Trip with Meanda Uganda:
In September 2022, I joined Meanda Uganda for 6-day motorcycle adventure trip through southern Uganda’s various landscapes. The tour was led by David O’Connor as tour leader and by Nic Brant as the host and tour organizer. We visited the trails around Lake Victoria, Albert, and Bunyonyi among others I forgot. We rode through the villages, lakes, Rwenzori Mountain, and the Bwindi Forest “amazing experience”. We camped in and saw the African Rhino, Elephant, Buffalo, Crocodiles, etc.
This trip was beyond amazing! seeing Africa opened my heart and humbled me, it brought me back to my basic human needs. At every corner, I had unforgettable moments, the people, places, terrain, nature, and animals. Nick and David were a fantastic team, very cool and funny to be with and I loved every minute of it. Here’s my review of the trip essentials.
Service: Fully available and transparent from day 1 with the visa preparation, vaccine and travel arrangement. Nick and David were always available with on time communication. They picked us up at the airport and we stayed at Nick’s home, and were treated like family.
Value for Money: You can feel from the very first moment, that Nick loved Africa and has spent time and effort dedicating his time and energy to this country. He’s like sharing his passion, its not a commercial business. Everything was included in the package – from accommodation and food, everything was transparent and we had freedom to select hotels or camp during the trip.
Reliability: David as the tour guide was with us all the time through the various terrains, especially the deep mud. Nick drove the support vehicle and took care of all the logistics, so we didn’t have to worry about anything.
Tour Guide: David O’Connor was the heart of the trip. His dedication, patience, and fun-loving spirit made everything enjoyable. It was my first-time riding in mud, and was often in deep pools of it, despite the challenges, David was supportive, he motivated us and kept the spirit high.
I highly recommend Meanda Uganda to anyone looking to explore Uganda on two wheels. Big thanks to Nick and David for making this trip so memorable! If you’re thinking about it, just go for it – you won’t regret it!

Excellent
Safari was superb, our guide, Shafino Dominik was incredible. Our luggage got lost in Nairobi for 3 days at the start of our safari and Lion King arranged for a care package of t shirts and toiletries as we literally had the clothes we traveled in, to keep us going until our luggage arrived. Shafino’s encyclopaedic knowledge of birds and animals and also understanding of the animal’s behaviour was amazing, taking us to the absolute best places to experience close up sights of Lions, Elephants and even a Cheetah without distressing the animals. Thank you Shafino, for an unforgettable experience of a lifetime.

Among the greatest experiences of our lives, thanks to our guide, Shafino Dominick and Lion King Adv
This was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our lives. After much research, we chose Lion King Adventures as our tour operator and we were not disappointed. We could write a book on how good this was but by way of synopsis, this must start with our guide, Shafino Dominick. He was extremely knowledgeable about all the animals, birds and plant life and he delivered exactly what we wanted and more. He was punctual, kind and attentive. Thank you so much, Shafino!
Lion King Adventures. The choices of lodges was second to none. The friendliness of the staff, a reflection of the people of Tanzania. We were welcomed everywhere we went. The countryside was beautiful and varied. We cannot thank our guide and Lion King Adventures enough for the holiday of a lifetime. We will be recommending to all our friends and family that they replicate our holiday exactly, as it was perfect. Asante sana!

The best memories!
Meijo offers the best customer experience I have ever had. Everything on our trip was absolutely seamless. Our guide, Micheal, was the standout of our experience. He was kind, respectful and has an excellent level of knowledge about the animals and area. Going on a Safari was always a dream for us and this trip exceeded all expectations!
We changed a few things on the way and without question Meijo took care of it for us.
I would recommend Mejio to all my friends and family.
