Unforgettable Safari
We went to Africa with my friends who new David from previous safari and we had very good time and we saw many animals.
His Company Native Afrika was very good and gave us a good price for the 5-day safari and also a guide that speak Germany, so it was easy for our communication on safari. We visit Amboseli for the Kilimanjaro and lake Naivasa and then Masai mara. Seeing the animals from the balloon very early in the morning was beautiful and also the sunrise amazing. Jakob our guide show the lion killing and eating zebra.
Thank you, Native Afrika!!! Recommend a lot.

The best tour operator ever!
There were amazing 6 days in Kenya with Okoa Afrika Tours!
Our driver John is real professional who made our wishes real as fast as possible and really cared about us during all 6 days. John we miss you and wish you all the best!
We spent the last day of safari in Nairobi with Mika and Johnson. They gave us the excursion, showed shoppes where we could buy some local products and told us the history of Kenya. In the end of our Kenya trip they took us to the Carnivore restaurant where we could try some special types of meat.
Thanks a lot to Okoa Afrika Tours for our amazing Kenya trip! Highly recommend the operator to everyone who wants to make their Afrikan trip the most comfortable and really unforgettable!

PERFECT FAMILY SAFARI!!
We just completed a 5-day safari with our family (3 persons) and it was perfect in every way.
We worked with Salim to plan the trip and she was terrific. He gave us all the information we needed, responded promptly to emails, and patiently worked with us through a couple of COVID-related reschedules. It was very easy to make arrangements and there were no unpleasant surprises or things we'd wished we'd done differently.
Once we arrived, we were met by our fabulous guide Ally, who proved to be knowledgeable and delightfully charming, and felt like old friend by the end of the week. We visited Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire and found each park to be wonderful.
The vehicles were comfortable and in great shape with useful features, including Wifi and electrical plugs for charging electronics, and a cooler with beverages.
We selected the Comfort Plus accommodation level and loved every place we stayed. The food was fantastic.
Overall, this was truly the vacation of a lifetime and I would highly recommend Zamunda Tours. It was an amazing experience start to finish.

Fantastic and organized safari
I first heard of Lion King through very good reviews, and I read a lot of them! I wrote to the company to begin inquiring about a trip, and immediately Godwin responded. We began emailing about different potential trips. He was always prompt and answered all my questions. Soon into this process, I asked him to give me three names of other people who had recently traveled with him that I could call for references. I talked to three different people at length about their experiences. All had incredibly good things to say about their trip with Lion King and with their guides.
Godwin continued to answer numerous emails as I had many questions. We chose the mid-range option. I had asked about some alternative hotels because of the other peoples’ experiences. Godwin was helpful to price these out and explain to me the benefits of the route that he had originally proposed. Although they would have put in other hotels had we requested them, we eventually just went with the first set of recommended hotels for this itinerary. That was a very fine choice. We had very good experiences in all of the hotels and tented camps that we were in, and service was top-notch in all of them. The tented camps in the Serengeti felt to us like the classic African experience. We loved these nights and enjoyed hearing the animals right outside of our tents.
Godwin continued to be patient with me as I finalized our itinerary because I wanted to also climb Kilimanjaro. He was again patient with me as I tried to figure out the best way to send payment. Once we had done this, we were turned over to Anna, the logistics person. Anna was just as helpful and I enjoyed our communications. She was prompt to answer my continued emails. The company was especially kind to us because they arranged an early check in for my husband and a separate transfer for him, because he was arriving early in the morning as I was still finishing my Kilimanjaro experience and arrived at a different time. This was most appreciated!
We have just finished this wonderful safari, and I can say that it has met and exceeded all of our expectations. Our guide Mwita was an excellent driver. This is important on these difficult roads and with the many hours you will spend in the vehicle. He kept our vehicle clean and restocked it with drinks every night. He did a lot of behind-the-scenes work to make sure everything went smoothly. He was very patient and was willing to wait while we were viewing certain animals to see if they would move to a better area to see them and/or wait for certain hoped-for behaviors. Due to this patience, we were able to see lions mating. We also were incredibly blessed to see the wildebeests crossing the Mara river on two different occasions in the north. Mwita sat with us as we waited and waited while the animals ran back and forth across the river. Other companies moved their vehicles while we stayed put. And where did those wildebeests eventually cross? Right in front of us! In the afternoon we waited for hours for a third group to cross, staying until the last possible minute. While that group didn't cross, the 12-hour day was a testament to Mwita's patience. We saw hundreds of thousands of animals and all of the big cats several times. Both my husband and I were amazed by the number of animals we saw.
All the food was excellent, from the buffets at the hotels and tented camps to the hot lunches we were sent with every day. (In fact, I'd recommend pacing yourself so you don't gain several pounds like I did!) Depending on where we were, our guide would stop either at a picnic area or simply in the national park and we would eat in the vehicle at a good view point. In Tarangire national park, we ate in our vehicle while looking outside at a huge group of elephants sucking water out of a seemingly dry pond!
Our first night in Arusha, we met some young travelers who were on Safari with a different company. When we ran into them a couple of days later, they were unhappy because they had been promised a certain hotel in the Ngorongoro crater area that they were not taken to. I was confident that we would not have any of this funny business with Lion King, and we did not. It was a seamless and wonderful experience and I would not hesitate to recommend this company.
Impeccable
Euray took care of us and gave us a world class experience on our game drive to Nairobi National Park and to the Giraffe Centre in Nairobi. We had such a beautiful day and my fiancé couldn't stop raving about the experience since it was his first experience on a game drive. 100% recommended

An Exceptional Service From Greatest Africa
We have just arrived home (UK) from a fantastic holiday, organised by Greatest Africa. It had been cancelled twice because of Covid Regulations and each time it was rebooked they kept us up to date and informed and organised everything for us, including transfers. As a result, everything ran really smoothly and efficiently. Our rep, Vanessa, could not have been more helpful, friendly and professional. The hotels and lodges were first rate. We will definitely use them again when we return to Africa and have no hesitation recommending them to others. You will not be disappointed.

Pleasant and trustworthy
We were a group of three girls and we did a 3 day safary tour with this company.
Godlisten, the manager, was really close to us from the beggining and he took care of everything, according to our necessities.
They picked us up from the airport and we spent the nigth in a rather centrally located acommodation in where a lot of safari tourists were located.
We had as guide Simon, who was really funny and considerated to us. Such a nice guy! The first day he brougth us to Taranguire park and he was stoping really patently to every animal we were encountering, always looking for the best location. Second day, Ngorongoro crater, that was spectacular. A mix of amazing animals and landscapes. Third, manyara lake.
Food was delicious, congrats to the chef. And we had a selection of cold beverages in the car's fridge, also included with the price. Including water.
Place to stay was nice, it had a pool and really nice staff.
At the end of our journey, we had a driver, David, that picked us up very punctual from the hotel in our way back to the airport.
Everything with a very competitive price!
I would recommend this company to my friends. Really trustworthy.
