Perfect host in Uganda
5/5

We first did a trip to Bwindi and Queen Elizabeth for 4 days. Peter is really charming and makes you feel comfortable at any time. The information you receive is clear and the lodges and activities are carefully chosen. As we enjoyed it very much, me decided to do another trip with him, this time a 2-day trip to Murchison Falls and it was also amazing. Very recommendable and wishing Peter very good luck.

5/5

We had a really good time with Shengena Adventure . Or contact person Mike was so helpfull and the organisation was perfect. We booked the „ 5 Days Safari with Serengeti Fly in,, . What can I say, this trip was an extraordinary experience. We encounter all big five and so much more. A lifetime Trip, which we will guard in our memory. Our driver Godwin was the best. Such a kind and knowledged person. He showed us so many beautyful spots in the N.P. (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara) we visited. The lodges where very confortable. We highly recommend Shengena Adventure . Everything was perfect. Thanks again to Mike and Boris!!!We had a really good time with Shengena Adventure .

Patrick was joyful, well informed and a great guide!
5/5

We enjoyed our tour so much! We saw every animal and the herd were beautiful to see. We skipped the village and walking tour, which definitely gave us more time in the park. Patrick was super patient with all of our questions and made us feel super comfortable to continue to ask. He also genuinely laughed at all our jokes, which made this so much fun!

5/5

My husband and I book with Lion King Safari Tour. We were assign with driver and guide Gilbert. Gilbert was amazing from the start to finish on our tour. He was literally our life line through out of our safari trip and beyond . He was professional and courteous on everything, from setting up our lunch table and serving us lunch each day. A remarkable guide who become our family forever. We had such a wonderful time and seeing the big five. Captivating us with his knowledge of the National parks and insuring of our safety. We have made the correct decision in choosing Lion King as safari tour.
Thank you Gilbert!! and Lion King !
Sincerely
Jean Persaud

Very professional tour operator. Everything went to plan. Saw 4 of the BIG FIVE!
5/5

We had an absolutely fantastic time. Safari of a lifetime! We had a 3 day safari with 2 nights in the Chobe National Park with all the animals. All food was included. Was picked up at the hotel in Victoria Falls and driven to Kasane, Botswana. Early afternoon Chobe River boat safari - words cannot describe - birds, buffalo, hippos, crocs... The following three days and two nights was the land safari in the National Park close to the Chobe river. Again, words cannot describe! It was like Jurassic Park! Kennedy, our very knowledgeable and friendly guide, was fantastic and explained everything about the animals and birds. He worked very hard and made every effort for us to see as many animals and birds as possible. We saw many lions, water buffalo, elephants, impala, giraffes, baboons, monkeys, jackals, eagles, vultures, crocs, many many beautiful birds etc. The camping experience was fantastic also, No fence, just lights around the camp at night. The animals keep themselves to themselves. Going to sleep and getting up in the morning with the bush noises and singing birds! An elephant passed by one night and a giraffe was seen near the camp in the morning. Thoroughly recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours!

Great adventure, very knowledgeable driver, beautiful accommodation selections.
5/5

This was second time I used this smaller tour operator, and again I asked for the driver/ tracker (Hamza Nyelo) for a Semi- Luxury Private Tour. There is no doubt that amongst his peers Hamza is very well respected. We often were the first to spot the more challenging animals such as leopards, and others drivers would be called in. With shy animals you have to be one of the first to arrive, leopards for example will quickly retreat into deeper cover. Hamza is so knowledgeable in all aspects, from tracking footprints, watching animal behavior, bird spotting, and identifying and naming plants, the history of the parks and Tanzania, and is also an excellent driver across all terrains and conditions. He also has a very open and wonderfully caring personality. This all adds additional quality to the overall safari experience, as you explore the enormity and biodiversity of the Tarangire and Serengeti national parks. We went and followed the migration as the Wildebeests and Zebra are giving birth in February, it was amazing to see and experience this in the Southern Serengeti and around Lake Ndutu .

The camp sites and lodges selected by the operator was also excellent, particularly the Lake Burunge and Tanzania Bush tented camps. We had animals all around in each case, the beautiful sight of a small herd of elephants about 150 meters from back of the Lake Ndutu Safari lodge, to multiple lions roaring outside the Tanzania Bush tented camp as you fall a sleep is etched into the memory. The food quality and selections, and general comfort was also excellent from each of the overnight sites, along with the friendly service and security from the animals.

A highly recommend life experience, with extremely great value for money.

Reliable, just wants to just give amazing experiences - so many small details just made it perfect!
5/5

Timely pick up at the airport and even checking on us as we were flying in - knows a lot of interesting places and people in Kampala and around, if you are interested in anything in particular, just ask him - should be possible I guess!
We went on a 21 day trip across the whole country and had to take care of anything - a very new experience as we usually plan a lot ourselves. But it was well done, when there was delays it was not because of Rada.
And then, the national parks - hiking the Virungas was stunning, and we got to know so many things about life in Uganda, wildlife, and the country. The parks are insanely beautiful, not as packed as in other countries, full of wildlife. My highlight was the Rhino sanctuary where Rhinos sometimes accompany you for dinner!
We ended up sharing dinner and drinks almost every day and it was fun - I am still in touch with Rada frequently and sharing jokes and stories from his newest trips.
If you can, meet Rada - you will not regret it for sure!

Friendly and professional services
5/5

We've been on a 6 day Machame route track to Kilimanjaro followed by a two day safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro. The logistics were organized by Africa Royal Trekking and although I had some worries before going to Tanzania, I have to admit I was wrong. Mr. Loya and Josh were friendly and professional, they adapted everything according to our needs so we had a good stay in Tanzania. We have joined another grouped and the guide to the mountain was Mr. Joseph from Double P Mountaineering and Safari Experts Ltd, again I can only say good words about him and his crew too. They guided us safely to the top, solved the logistic problem of half a group being on 6 day, the other on 7 day schedule. In our free day we were also accompanied and guided around Arusha, having another nice day there with good people. Thank you!
