They makes me relaxed and happy.
Njury sana. Raven bring me paradise. The guide and cooker always make me feel comfortable and relaxed.
They connect nice camping site, pick me up from hotel to safari, give me nice dishes.
And reasonable price. I recommand you safari with Raven.
I did 5day in safari. But I think 2days in Serengeti is too short. So I recommend at reast 3~4days in Serengeti.
Raven helps me not only safari but also ticketing to go another place.
Good company. You can trust them.

Fantastic Safari Company
Fantastic Safari Company! I am glad I have booked and trusted Idda in organizing my family holiday. (2 adults and 1 child)
First time for us in Tanzania and first time for my hubby in Africa so I really wanted to make that trip count. It was my husband’s dream to see the big 5 and he sure did !
I definitely recommend Massawe Adventures for anyone who is looking to have a great time in Tanzania. Not always easy to organise such a trip so just share what you really want and Idda will help you with that.

Awesome! Deep knowledge of Tanzania wildlife, passionate about their job, top accomodations
I choose Lionking after a deep analysis of almost all the available alternatives for Safari in Tanzania, and it was the right choice. Easy communication in any moment of the planning of the safari or during the safari itself, top score in terms of value for money, super reliable in any moment of the journey. The car was new, the guide Oswald had a “magic” touch in finding wildlife. The result of this is what we considered to be probably one of the top 3 holiday in our life (and we travel A LOT and it wasn’t the first time in Tanzania). We already look forward to come back as soon as we can.

Very responsible tour operator, my safari was well planned.
The safari was made possible by good arrangement and reliability of Arisi Safaris, very responsible team from the airport to my hotel was very smooth and comfortable. I was never worried around them in my entire travel. Arisi team was very responsible and reliable, my expectations and value for money was mate. I will use them again when I travel to Tanzania and also I recommend them to everyone planning to visit Tanzania and East Africa in general.

Great safari and beach holiday
Julius organised our safari for us including hotels, transfers and flights. We knew what we wanted: eco lodge with local driver and guides. He arranged everything for us. We stayed at Eagle View, flew into Olseki airstrip and were picked up by our guides and driver. We had a fabulous 3 day safari, we saw lots of lions including lion cubs playing with each other, cheetah, elephants, hippo, crocodiles, lots of giraffe, antelopes, warthogs, ostriches, baboons and almost saw a leopard. A great safari and a great beach holiday at southern palms, Diani.

Just go
I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Maasai Mara, expertly guided by Solomon. The game drive through the park far exceeded my expectations.

best experience of My life
I have just finished the 3-day safari, PERFECT service upon arrival at Arusha airport immediate support by suricatasafari staff arrival at the hotel received by Ally the manager of the debrifing team for the day of next day . The next day the driver arrives Mandela very seriously polite with him the cook Salim. We ate better it was 3 days in Safarie than the rest of our stay varied dish with great taste. Mandela driver very focused on the road and excellent guide, we met a group of lions eating a hippopotamus, baby lion dice leopard cheetah and still lots of animals in their natural state.
I recommend 10/10

Very communicative, kind and helpful. Nice combo trip with safari, and waterfall and culture.
We booked the 3 day Mikumi Safari, waterfall hike, and visit to Masai tribe. The organizers are very helpful and quick communicators when you contact them. She even went out of her way to organize Zanzibar ferry tickets for us so that we didn’t have to worry about it - was a super kind curiosity!
The safari was great! We saw all the main animals. Felt very lucky with our guide, Jefferson.
The resort has a beautiful pool and great food.
Things felt smooth and we were cared for.
We did however miss having access to an itinerary in writing / email. We booked many months in advance and the ad was taken down on the site so we were not able to go back and see what the itinerary was once we got started on the journey. It will be great if the operator can send this along with the booking confirmation.
For example, this would have been good to know on the first day. We drove 7 hours from dar es Salaam to Mikumi. When we arrived we thought we might get some time at the resort to freshen up. But instead we went straight to the safari, so it was 10 ++ hours in a vehicle. An approximate itinerary would’ve helped us mentally prepare a bit. Otherwise the trip was great :)
The drive sounds long, but we really enjoyed it because we got to see real villages that aren’t touristy at all! It’s a lot to take in from the car window.

A Christmas Surprise Safari!
December 25: My wife and I live and work in Uganda. I planned a 33rd anniversary surprise for my wife by having our children and their spouses fly in from the US for a week's visit. I contacted several tour companies, and Kate was the first and most efficient/professional in her response. She and Shafic, from Bushman Safari's, picked up our children from the airport while I set up the surprise in the hotel restaurant. I told my wife to expect a culinary surprise, but when the blindfold came off, instead of a table of food there sat our children! She was quite surprised: said she didn't know "whether to scream or cry!" After lunch Kate and Shafic took us to see the equator, which was a first time visit for our children's spouses, took many photos, did some memory making!
The next morning it was off to Murchison Falls National Park, with a stop to see the rhino sanctuary. Shafic was an excellent driver, while supplying us with much information/history of Uganda and its native wildlife. After seeing many animals on our way in to Pakubah Lodge, we all had an excellent dinner and nice, clean comfortable rooms for a good night's sleep. After a 0530 breakfast, Shafic took us to all the places where he knew the animals were hiding out! Leopard, lion, elephant, hippo and the giraffes, which are so graceful and elegant to watch! Took a boat ride up to the Falls, and later trekked up to the top of the Falls for a great view! Shafic knew exactly where to go for each place, everything was taken care of and went so smoothly! Kate, cooked up a surprise for our anniversary by having us (not the children) transported to another Lodge for the night, for a special dinner and a flower petal-decorated room just for us! It was well done and much appreciated! The next morning we saw even more animals, especially elephants as we headed to our residence in eastern Uganda for the conclusion of our time with Bushman. It was a great trip all the way, as Shafic dropped us off right in our driveway!
If you are looking for a superior tour company that will give you a great experience touring Uganda then I highly recommend Bushman Safari's without reservation! Kate handled every detail, and was very quick in responding to all the issues/questions that I had. Shafic was excellent in driving, we always felt safe, and he possessed a wealth of knowledge of all we experienced! Overall, a great time of memories for us and our children!
