Excellent trip
5/5

We had a safari with Jocky Tours 8-14 of May. All was great. We visited Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboseli. Our guide Joshua was very polite, qualified man. Due to his explanations, we found out a lot of about wild animals and nature of Kenya. We have seen the big five! We are particularly grateful for the organization of a boat trip on Naivasha. We enjoyed it a lot.

We thank you, Minnech, Joshua, James for this excellent trip.

Safari holiday in Botswana
5/5

We had a fabulous holiday – nothing to criticise; all the accommodation was excellent, we were extremely well looked after and it was all seamless in moving from one place to another either by plane or road - we went to two camps in Botswana for two days each at the Lagoon and Lebala camps. Food was just right - nothing to fancy - and I can't see how our holiday could have been improved. Our four children loved it and it was like stepping back in time with no mobiles, emails or internet so they had no escape. We had great views of lions, a leopard in a tree, masses of elephants, giraffes etc – nothing really escaped our eagle eyed guides. Four days was about the right length for us.

Organisation was excellent and Llauren at To Escape To were very helpful in making suggestions and dealing with all the day to day changes in planning the itinerary. All very clear. I shall be saving up our pennies!

Fast Feedback and Excellent Guide
4/5

Mr O reply my mail very fast and fullfil most of my requirement.
We found out one of the lake cannot spot Flamingo, and he agreed to change to another one without charges.
Thanks both Mr O and Anthony.
Anthony is a very helpful, young and energetic guide, especially in Masai Mara. We have a very good trip with him during this few days. We spot all big 5. And we feel very comfortable to stay with him this few days.

For lovers of nature and relax
Overall rating
5/5

Staying at Tlopi tented camp it felt so relaxed, surrounded by pure nature, observing birds and wild animals drinking at the waterpool, fabulous sundown and sunset and a clear starfull night. It felt so nice this solitude yet richness of nature. The safari from gate to the camp was a wonderful ride with all the zebra's, impala's, monkeys around. The accomodation was with all the comfort the visitor needs.

They'll take you where you want to go!
5/5

Pro Shuttle, Tours & Adventures was great to work with. Our driver, Andrew was right on time, very safe and made for an easy and comfortable ride from Cape Town to Paternoster. We had 14 people in the van making the excursion for my wife's and my wedding. This was not an easy trip, as it was a 2 hour journey and our driver had to make the journey all the way back to Cape Town after midnight as well -- quite a long day. We were very lucky and grateful to have Pro Shuttle provide this exceptional service. Highly recommend!

A superbly organized 13 day promotional Zambia expedition
5/5

I've just returned from Zambia, where I had my 1st southern African experience. Usually I plan my own itineraries and travel independently but in viewing this tour, it had all the elements that were attractive to me. The expedition included a 2 1/2 days canoeing and camping trip on the Lower Zambezi River. Denver made my experience in Zambia very rewarding. He went well beyond what was in the original itinerary, enabling me to maximize my time at each national park. Although animal sightings were not as numerous during the green season, I liked the lack of crowds at both Kafue and South Luangwa national parks. I'd like to thank Denver for assuring a great experience in Zambia and I hope to return in the future

5/5

It was very important to us to contact a local safari company in order to have a tailor made trip and save costs of middlemen and traveling agencies.
There are so many Safari companies online and it is very difficult to find a trustworthy local company just from reading online.
We knew that Lion King Adventure are trustworthy from our first WhatsApp call we've made with James and we were right.

My girlfriend and I spent 16 days in Tanzania and it was the best trip we have ever made. Salle and James went into scrupulous detail making sure that every single aspect of our trip was exactly what we wanted - it felt like a truly tailor-made experience.

We would 100% recommend Lions King Adventure to anyone looking at a private African safari and in best price!


Для нас было очень важно связаться с местной сафари-компанией, чтобы организовать индивидуальную поездку и сэкономить средства на посредников и туристических агентств. Сейчас в интернете так много сафари-компаний, но очень трудно найти местную и надежную одновременно. С нами связался Джеймс!) После этого первого WhatsApp звонка с Lion King Adventure мы поняли, что они заслуживают доверия, и мы были правы. Я и моя девушка провели в Танзании 16 дней, и это была лучшая поездка, которую мы когда-либо совершали. Салле и Джеймс очень скрупулёзно готовились, чтобы каждый аспект нашей поездки был именно таким, каким мы себе представляли, они такжн терпеливо учитывали наши запросы в еде ;+) - это был действительно индивидуальный подход! Мы рекомендуем на 100% Lion King Adventure всем, кто смотрит на частное африканское сафари и по лучшей цене!


האינטרנט מוצף בחברות ספארי שמפרסמות את עצמן ואם אתם בוחרים ליצור קשר ישירות עם מקומיים מבלי סוכנות נסיעות מתווכת חשוב למצוא מישהו שאפשר לסמוך עליו
לאחר סינון ארוך של כל החברות שמצאתי באינטרנט מצאתי את ג'יימס כבחור שאפשר לסמוך עליו וגם על החוות דעת שתקראו עליהם מחזקות את זה.

הוא אסף אותנו משדה התעופה ולשמחתי צדקתי שבחרתי בהם
היה לנו טיול דינמי שהותאם לצרכים והרצונות שלנו במקום ואף בסופו לקחנו את הגיפ בנהיגה עצמית מהצפון לדאר אסלאם ועברנו נסיעה חווייתית ללא מדריך בטנזניה ובפארקים לאומיים בדרך.

מומלץ ביותר ליצור אתם קשר ולהגיע ישירות לטנזניה. ג'יימס יאסוף אתכם משדה התעופה וידאג לכל מה שתצטרכו בצורה פדנטית.

Excellent service for smooth travels
5/5

We had a wonderful vacation planned thougth Adventura Africa. They took great care of us every step of the way. Every driver, guide, hotel and air transfer was superb. If I am able to return to Africa, I will use Adventura Africa to plan the entire trip. I highly recommend them.

Safari with Trip Advisor Africa Safaris!
5/5

We started a process of choosing safari company about 40 days prior to arrival to Kenya. I sent about 15 emails to different safari companies with price request. Trip Advisor Africa Safaris replied very quickly and after the process of communication with the director Seth Vincent he offered us the best price among all safari operators! Need to note that safari by itself is not a cheap entertainment.
Communication with Seth was via Whatsap and email, he replied very quickly and detailed.
We transfered a deposit of 500 USD to Trip Advisor Africa Safaris to confirm our booking, residual amount we paid on arrival by cash.

Our itinerary included:

Day 1 - Pick up in the Airport Nairobi, where director Seth Vincent and our driver guide Jacob met us, then we proceeded to baby elephant center (David Sheldrick's Elephant Orphanage), then to the Giraffe Center, then after lunch we had a guided tour in Kibera slums, after which we had a wonderful dinner in Carnivore restaurant. The program in Nairobi was well-thought and intense, we probably wouldn't have made it by ourselves, so, services of Trip Advisor Africa Safaris was really valuable!

Day 2 - at 7:30 in the morning we started driving to Masai Mara through the Great African Rift Valley escarpment and through Lake Naivasha where we had a great boat trip. We saw a lot of birds, big group of hippocampus in the lake and even on the land! They are really impressive animals! And we even had a chance to walk on the land nearby to giraffes, very close! However, they are rather cowardly animals:) Overnight was in Mara Sidai tented camp which is quite nice.

Day 3 - Full day Masai Mara game reserve with our driver Jacob, who managed to show us a lot of animals just in one day! We saw a lot of wildebeests, antilopas, elephants, zebras, giraffes, lions - we even saw a hunting of female lion (which btw finished not in her favor:)) Jacob is really experienced and knowledgeable guide, he always tried to show us animals up close and to ensure that we have the best view!
Overnight was also in Mara Sidai camp.

Day 4 - After morning game drive in Masai Mara we headed to Serengeti national park via Isebania Serare boarder (Tabaka gate). At the border we changed our vehicle and met our Tanzanian driver guide Zigi. The scenery in this part of Tanzania is fantastic - very sumptuous greenery, authentic local villages (however, we were advised not to take photos of people there), gold mining pit! It was really beautiful road. Then we had a game drive in Serengeti and we saw also a lot of animals, here our driver Zigi showed us leopard and cheetah family! In Tanzania we had our private chief who cooked fantastic meals for us, the food was absolutely mind blowing, believe me! Especially in this natural conditions of camping, it was so romantic:))
Overnight in Serenera campsite.

Day 5 - Morning game drive in Serengeti national park, then we proceeded through Olduvai Gorge to Ngorongoro national park and stayed overnight in a picturesque Ngorongoro Simba campsite, it was rather wet and cold in the night and morning, however, we were aware of this.

Day 6 - in the early morning we headed to Ngorongoro Crater, there was morning fog covering crater's rim it was a mysterious view! In the Crater we saw many animals and the lake with pink flamingo! However, we were not able to drive close to them as far as park's rules prohibit off-road driving. It is wonderful how animals can form their own world inside the Crater.
After game drive we headed to the small town Karatu where our accomondation was beautiful lodge. I would recommend you to chose not camping but lodge option for the last day on safari to have a rest and relax :)

Day 7 - it was just a drive from Karatu to Arusha Airport from where we had a flight to Zanzibar :)

Overall, I would recommend to use Trip Advisor Africa Safaris services, their price policy is really fair, the director Seth Vincent tries to do all his best to organize your tailor-made trip. I wish you further development and a lot of happy clients! :)
