Emmah Is professional. He knows what he Is doing. He has got sharp eyes, knowledge and patience.
5/5

Overall, I'm very satisfied with the service from Hyrax. We had a private safari, so the car was just for the two of us, and they accommodated us with the timing and arranged our transfer from the airport to our accommodation. In the end, there was no problem extending our safari by an extra day, along with a trip we came up with later. Our guide, Emmah, was a professional — always answered our follow-up questions and would, on their own initiative, point out what we were seeing, why we were seeing it, and how it fit into the safari. Overall, I'm very happy.

Not bad
4/5

Our driver Cason from Sandton to the park was very nice and drives smoothly. The tour overall was not very satisfying as we expected to see more animals, but we only got to see a few in a 5 hours drive!!

Emmah is professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about wildlife. Highly recommended!
5/5

We had an amazing experience with Hyrax Safaris from start to finish. Communication before the trip was always quick, clear, and helpful, and every question we had was answered promptly.

Our guide was outstanding—professional, experienced, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw the entire Big Five, as well as cheetahs with a cub, a leopard, elephants, giraffes, hippos, and many other amazing animals. He was patient, never rushed us, and always tried to give us the best possible wildlife sightings.

The itinerary was well organized, the accommodations were comfortable, and everything ran smoothly throughout the safari. We also appreciated the flexibility when adding a Lake Naivasha trip during our journey.

This safari exceeded our expectations and gave us unforgettable memories. We highly recommend Hyrax Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable company, excellent value for money, and a truly memorable safari experience.

Exceptional
5/5

We did a 5 days, 4 nights Safari with Ndutu green explorers. It was an amazing experience. From the start Tom was very helpful in planning our trip and choosing an itinerary tailored to our needs. He was very attentive, patient and helpful. Our guide Mack was good. Food and accommodation exceeded our expectations. I would recommend Tom and Ndutu green explorers to anyone planning a safari in the future.

Great safari: excelent value for money
5/5

We had a great safari with Baboom Safaris. We did the 4 days safari in Masai Mara. Everything went as planned, the organization was very good, and they were always on time.
Our guide, Anthony, worked really hard to find all kind of animals and he knows the park perfectly. We saw a lot of animals incluided the most dificult animals to find, and even got to enjoy the migration, thanks to Anthony's great intuition.
The food was delicious.
The value for money was excellent. You don't need to pay for an expensive safari because, in the end, you see the exact same animals.

Very reliable
5/5

We took a 5D4N private tour to Maasai Mara. From the start, I loved that it was completely customisable based on your schedule, to your desired comfort level for accommodation and even the vehicle! what I loved about them was the price transparency- you knew exactly what you were paying for.The game drives were needless to say, amazing. My guide, Leyian, took the time to explain the history / culture of Masai Mara in great detail, and the species that we encountered, big or small. It was amazing; worth every dollar we paid. I’ll be back again and will recommend them to my friends as well.

Friendly super organized with highly qualified and thoughtful staff.
5/5

We booked a once in a lifetime trip. Firstly a safari in Tanzania encompassing the Serengeti., Ngorongo crater and Lake Tarangire. The followed by a trip to Zanzibar

The support provided by Lion King Adventuees was unbelievably good. Our head office contact Nickson was wonderfully responsive despite the 8 hour time difference. He worked with us to ensure our complicated agenda and logistics were handled seamlessly and efficiently before and during the vacation. He is a fist rate representative of Lion King providing unparalleled service

Our tour guide was Jackson. Similarly Jackson was a perfect guide. He is thoughtful highly knowledgeable about the birds, animals and geology of the area. He was always on point to answer any of our queries no matter how trivial. Furthermore I still can’t believe how he would drive so safely through difficult roads while simultaneously being able to spot birds and animals hundreds of yards away. Jackson was a great guide for us, super reliable from start to finish. I cannot recommend him highly enough

Lion King were great to work with. Phenomenally high standards of service from back office through to guides. I’m limited to a 5 star review but would have gone higher if allowed

5/5

Our stay was perfect from start to finish. Our guide Passiance was friendly, kind and always made a great effort to give us a great experience daily. He managed to teach us quite a few words in Swahili which made communication with the locals more fun for us. Passiance is experienced and he knows his way around - he gave us the best experience and thanks to him we managed to see the big five plus many more animals plus he managed to take us at the perfect time to see the migration! We cannot recommend him enough he is amazing - Bomba Sana in Swahili ;)
