Phenomenal
This trip was a dream come true. From the game drives, to the accommodations, to the cuisine. Everything was seamless. I’ll be praying for the day I can return.

Good contact, quick response and everything was well organized.
We had booked a safari with Explorer Kenya Tours & Travel. From 23 to 26 January we visited 3 parks Amboseli, Tsavo West and East. We had a fantastic safari, especially because we had Simon as our guide. He is a very calm patient driver. He has a lot of knowledge and an eye for detail, nothing was too much to ask. We can highly recommend the safari with Simon as a guide.

Lion king adventures safaris : marvellous experience
We have had a wonderful safari. We hesitated to choose for lion king safaris as they were a little more expensive than other organisations. However, they are worth every dollar : we had warm lunch every day (called hampa : warm food kept in thermo and stored with the cutlery in a big picnic bag), cars are very good with chargers, tires are not worn (important for the gravel rocky roads to and in Serengeti), all kind of drinks stored in a cooler, red and white wine with a personalized label and message, the communication with mail and whatsapp was very fast and last but not least the great guide Gilbert. Gilbert is very knowledgeable about the animals, he spots them from far far away, he anticipates so well the behaviour of the animals so that we were always at the right spot. It was a marvellous experience for our family.

A beautiful and unforgettable experience! Everything went above our expectations
The four day Safari was a wonderful experience.
Our guide, Khalif, is amazing. If you want to have an unforgettable experience he is the one. We started from Nairobi and drive all the way to the Masai Mara reserve. The vehicle is a pretty new Land Crusier, very confortable and that will look awesome in your photos. We stopped at the rift valley where we got to see some damans. We had lunch at the Masai Mara Sopa Lodge and then we did our first game drive. Khalif has been doing this for years, he knows the park by heart and he is very friendly with the tribes leaving around, other guides and park guards. He took us to the best stops to see lions, giraffes, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, hienas and many more wild animals. We ended with an outstanding view of the sunset and headed back to the hotel for dinner and rest. The hotel is very nice, they welcome you with a fruit juice and all meals are buffet. The room looked very cleaned and they prepared it with mosquito nets, it felt quite safe, we came in January and there were not many mosquitos. The second day we woke up quite early and headed for a full day drive game that started with the sunrise. We saw so many animals, and so close. We even had a lion laying out next to our car looking for a shadow. In total we did see more than 30 lions in the whole trip, no kidding, even small cute simbas. We only brought our phone camaras and wow the photos we could took are amazing. Although if you have a camera with deeper zoom better bring it with you. The third day we visit a Massai tribe, the leader took us around and explained our culture. They show us some of their tradicional dances and they even invited to join us. The leader welcomed us inside his home and meet his family. It is very interesting to learn about this humble culture and totally worth the visit. After that we headed to Lake Nakuru and we did our first game drive there in the afternoon. We got to experience several white rhinos and a huge amount of zebras crossing in front us.
Khalif knows a lot about the animals, and he guessed correctly at what time and exact location the rhinos would be crossing so we got the perfect photo. The second hotel is also pretty nice, although we liked more the first. The cool about this ones is that it has amazing views of the park and the lake. If you are lucky as us you might get a room with a full window wall and a terrace looking into the nature, you can even see some animals from there. For our last day we headed to an early morning game drive were we got to see flamingos, more lions and a lot others. Warthogs look so funny.
Honestly when looking for a safari we did not know which to choose and we were afraid to get scammed. But we could not be more happy with the outcome. We felt totally safe during the whole trip, the planning was as described and the whole trip was way more incredible than expected. So I would totally recommend Lenchada tours for anyone that wants to do a Safari in Kenia. If you can choose to go with Khalif better, he will ensure you have fun, you learn a lot, you get to see animals very close and you enjoy the full experience.

Absolutely brilliant, He is a profession in his career
Gerald Wangui aka Mr. Geeman gave us a tour to remember, gave us the best tour ever. He was always on time, very informative, answered all our questions and his knowledge about the park and game drive is amazing. He treated us with much respect and much love and humor, solved all our queries and I must say that he's a Top tier in his field. Would wish to have him again in our future travel. 5 stars all the way

Profesionalizm and pasion
When I think about Abuu's Tanzania Tours, the first thing that comes to my mind is profesionalizm. Starting from Abuu himself who was very responsive and answered a lot of our questions before even our safari started (not all of them conected to safari), came to pick us up from the airport and later after the trip to ask about our experience. Then our amazing guide Mbwana who was very knowledgeable and patient to answer all our questions (we had them so many!). He is a man who is very pasionate about his job. Ending up on our chef Atman who cooked so delicious meals and what was the most important for me - he was preparing for breakfast one of the best crepes I have ever eaten!

Great private trip with perfect guide :)
Hi, we were on a private trip with our guide Eli. It was great. The whole trip was well organized. They came to pick us up at the hotel, no problem at the airport and Eli was waiting for us at the park. He explained everything to us, spoke good English, had a lot of jokes and knew his way around. I can really recommend him. Thanks for everything, it was great!

Excellent reliable company with Joseph as super guide
We had a great 9 day safari in Kenya. They finetuned our journey and all administration was well taken care off (including the needed security in terms of payment). The trip was well organised and our guide Joseph did everything he could to please us. This is the first time we took a 4x4 van instead of a landcruiser and this was great: much more manouvrable for following animals offroad (better than heavy landcruiser). Thanks for the great trip!
