Great safari experience!
Despite COVID, we were able to travel from Sydney to Tanzania and do a safari with Lion King Adventures in December 2021. Nick and Pendo helped us put together our customised 6 day itinerary covering the Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara - they were highly responsive and made the process seamless. They have a flexible COVID cancellation policy. Our guide, Peter, is a passionate, knowledgeable and highly experienced guide. We were able to see the big 5, the elusive serval cat, and Peter made it his mission to help us spot many baby animals. We were also pleased with the food on the tour - lunches in particular were hot lunches and not boxed food. Would recommend choosing Lion King.

We had a good time in the jungle
We had great time in game watching some wild animals. The breakfast on the Zambezi was the perfect time for us

Highly knowledgeable, helpful, good value and an exceptional experience!
We had the most fantastic time in Kenya and that was mainly thanks to the organisation and support of the team at Lets Go Travel. We experienced such variety in Kenya from the busy streets of Nairobi to climbing Mount Kenya followed by a luxury safari in nearby Ol Pajeta. Simon organised our trip and our guide Joseph Gathu seamlessly executed our plans, making the whole process delightfully easy but more importantly fun. He guided us up Mount Kenya offering unique insight to experiences in the mountains. It's a challenging climb but Joseph managed our capabilities to the ascent strategy and made the whole hike a once in a lifetime memory! "polepole"! Ol Pajeta was fantastic as well - the knowledge from our guide made 2 days in this private conservatory sensational. We'd love to come back to Kenya and can't wait to plan our next trip!

Expertly planned trip with top-notch customer support!
We had an amazing experience with Wayfairer during our safari to 3 lodges in Kenya during December '21.
From the initial conversation with Josh, who helped us personalize and tailor our trip, to the trip support given to us by Toon and the rest of the team, every step was meticulously planned and coordinated so that virtually all the stress of this International trip was removed.
We went to Saruni Rhino, Saruni Samburu and Mahali Mzuri over 7 days, with a night in Nairobi at each end for a total of 9 days. Each lodge we stayed at had its own personality and attributes, and I really liked that we did a combination of locations.
We had a nice mixture of walking safari time, game drives, excursions to animal orphanages and community locations... so we never found ourselves getting bored at all or stuck doing just one thing.
The game viewing was exceptional, and we saw the "big 5" repeatedly, in addition to the Samburu "special 5".
All of the staff and guides at every lodge were wonderful and incredibly good at taking care of us..anticipating our every need. They treated us like family and were genuinely kind and authentic with regards to sharing their culture and beautiful lands.
We honestly had a tremendously positive experience and if there were not other places to visit, we would probably go back on safari to Kenya every year with Wayfairer. Well worth the cost!

Reliable operator who can give you the perfect daytrip or safari into the wild where others don't go
I've done a very well organized day trip around Nairobi with Ongeri Expeditions as my time was limited this time. I've seen some of the highlights like the Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Center. Ongeri Expeditions is a reliable company with nice staff, good drivers and cars. Will definitely recommend Ongeri Expeditions for day trips but I look forward to do longer trips, as safari's, on my next visits with them as well. Nice staff with eye for detail. Abner is a lovely guide who gave me a lot info about the animals as the birds which we saw and enjoyed his enthusiasm for nature.

All perfect
Without a doubt an incredible experience, I would repeat tomorrow again. Our guide was Mike Mollel and I promise he is the best, if I went back on safari I would choose him a thousand times over. He knows a lot about everything, he talks to you and explains about anything you ask him, he has spent 15 years on the whole topic of safaris and on top of that he speaks Spanish and English perfectly, a luxury to be with him every day on safari. He is an amazing man, very kind, he helps you with everything he can ... he made the experience even better. Thanks a lot Mike. He also stressed that the chef who touched us could not be better !! I don't remember his name but it was spectacular. Everything perfect from the first moment! ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ Alex and Anais from Mallorca :)

Friendly and responsible
Boy David took me around the Gorilla Highlands in a professional way, and brought a friendly touch to it all, making the sun shine even brighter.
A dream come true
Golden Africa Safaris is simply a secret I can no longer keep to myself.
From planning the Safari right through to the final goodbye, Charlotte & Rob made it all seemingly effortless and ensured our Safari was indeed a dream come true.
On the drive from Maun we already saw wild dogs and so much other wildlife that we arrived a trifle late for sundowners. The fire had been lit and after following Covid protocols meticulously but not intrusively, we were shown to our very comfortable and beautifully appointed tents.
What the chef manages to conjure up in a field kitchen cannot be achieved by many competent chefs with all modern machinery and gadgets. The spinach roulade was a particular highlight!
Every day we were woken with a jug of warm water and fresh coffee to spur us on, and then taken on a long game drive.
What was so special is that there are no real set times but when a sighting was good, we would just stay out longer. Once we even downed our plates mid-dinner to follow the call of nearby lions.
Midday allows for some quiet time (there even is a hammock) and after some light refreshment we were off again for more wildlife. Although the Delta was more flooded than normal, Rob found always new areas to explore and discover. The only animal he was not able to conjure up was a leopard but I’m so glad there is a good reason for returning to what can only described as a magical experience.
If you want to come up close and personal with nature and wildlife in a wonderfully sustainable way, Golden Africa Safari is the outfitter you should go to.
Thank you Charlotte & Rob and your whole team!
