Great country, where you can experience real Africa
I very much enjoyed viewing wildlife from a very short distance and experiencing indigenous culture in Masai Mara. People are very friendly. Food, facilities, roads and overall tourist service is of good quality.

Bucket List Safari
WE HAVE JUST COMPLETED OUR 6-DAY SAFARI. WRITE FROM THE BOOKING COMMUNICATION WAS SUPERB FROM PENDO AND NICKSON. WE HAD A SMALL GLITCH, WITH AN 8-HOUR DELAY ON THE INCOMING FLIGHT, MEANING ARRIVING AT 1.30 AM AT KILIMANJARO, BUT THAT WAS NOT A PROBLEM WITH PENDO, REGULAR MESSAGES STILL HAD OUR DRIVER, FOR THE TRANSFER, WAITING AT THE AIRPORT TO TRANSFER US TO ARUSHA CHECKING IN AT 2.45 AM, ALL WENT OFF WITHOUT A HITCH. THE SAME MORNING AT 8.30 AM WE MET BY GOODLUCK, OUR EXPERIENCED GUIDE AND DRIVER. HE WAS AMAZING, KNOWLEDGEABLE, FUNNY, A VERY SAFE DRIVER AND ALWAYS EXPLAINING WHAT WE WERE DOING, AND HIS KNOWLEDGE OF THE ANIMALS WAS EXCELLENT. COURTEOUS AND PATIENT WHEN WE WERE TAKING PHOTOS, AND ALWAYS GETTING THE BEST POSITION. HE WAS EXCITED, AS MUCH AS WE WERE, WHEN WE SPOTTED THE ANIMALS, ESPECIALLY THE RHINOS, LIONS, CHEETAHS, AND THAT SPECIAL LEOPARD, AMONG OTHERS. WE STAYED AT KITELA LODGE (KARATU) FOR 2 NIGHTS, SAMETU CAMP (SERENGETI) AND THE REMAINING 2 NIGHTS AT MT MERU HOTEL (ARUSHA) AND AIRPORT PLANET LODGE (KILIMANJARO). ALL ACCOMMODATION WERE 5-STAR, AND WE WERE TREATED LIKE ROYALTY. THE SAFARI WAS PRIVATE, JUST THE 2 OF US AND GOODLUCK MEANING THE ABILITY TO MOVE AROUND THE JEEP WITH THE ROOF OPEN TO TAKE THOSE MEMORABLE SNAPS, IS FANTASTIC AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. IF YOU ARE DOING A SAFARI IN TANZANIA AND WISHING TO SEE THE JAW DROPPING NGORONGORO CRATER AND THE AMAZING SERENGETI, LOOK NO FURTHER! LION KING ADVENTURERS IS THE ONLY COMPANY IN OUR VIEW. THANK YOU GOODLUCK FOR SHARING YOUR TANZANIA WITH US, IT WAS A BUCKET LIST MOMENT FOR MANY YEARS FOR US AND YOU MADE IT SO MEMORABLE WITH MOMENTS THAT WILL LAST WITH US A LIFETIME. LOOK NO FURTHER, BOOK LION KING ADVENTURE TOMORROW. YOU WILL NOT REGRET THIS DECISION. HAPPY NEW YEAR GOODLUCK AND THE VERY BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

excellent planning and assistance
savannah has been highly professional, despite our 1 day late arrival, they have re-arranged the tour in the most optimal way. Accomodation was top quality, the tent hotel in the middle of serengeti absolutely unforgettable. our guide, Maulid, was not only a very nice guy speaking perfect italian, but also extremely knowleageable. if the trip has been a success, much is due to him
highly recommended

Janet goes above and beyond!
Janet is such an excellent tour guide and a wonderful person! She personally helped my group find a hotel in Nairobi before our tour with Javiva adventures even started. She met up with us before our safari and took us to the giraffe sanctuary just to be nice. Our experience with the safari in Amboseli was amazing! All the staff members were so kind and welcoming. I would whole-heartedly recommend Janet from Javiva adventures for your trips in Eastern Africa. She truly cares about her clients and makes you feel like an instant best friend.

Probably best guide in East Africa
The whole trip was perfect. The experience with the gorillas and also another tour to the Queen Elizabeth NP is unforgettable. From the beginning, Peter helped us with everything we needed. Was always checking if we could get something cheaper as we would have found it. We saved much money thanks to his negotiating skills with food and accommodation. In addition he even picked us up for free from our hotels and brought us back even after our agreement. He drove us from Kabale to our Hotel in Kigali for free and offered his knowledge whenever we have questions. Also important are his extraordinary driving skills. We felt save the whole tour due to his careful way to drive. Honestly I think it's not possible to do it better.

Professional, excellent driver, friendly.
This was the best trip with Safari scuttle I have experienced.
I will travel again and again with Safari link as this is the best affordable and savest scuttle service to use.
Thank you to the driver and your friendly office personal.
Kind Regards

Our operator Noel was as good as it gets. Very efficient, punctual and informative. Very pleased.
The safari was a great experience, seeing the animals in their natural habitat so close up in the real world. It was surreal and a priceless experience. Our guide Max aided in the experience with his expertise on each species. I couldn't be happier, I still have a smile on my face. I will definitely be back.

Dishonest
The tour was great. However the agent I worked with from corporate office kept telling me one thing and changing it where I paid more and received less. She even changed the contract of what I signed. I was promised three meals plus much more and did not receive it. I have my original contract and all of our emails and conversations. BUYER BEWARE--DISHONEST. The properies in Capetown were nice but in need of repair. Stillness Manor: Broken mirrors, issues with water, mold around showers, and load share
issues every day (no lanterns or emergency lamps). Shark Bay was nice. Belle Maroc was a nice location. The people on site And the driver were great. Please make sure you get everything in writing from them and then DO NOT SIGN ANY NEW ADDENDUMS, CANCEL IF YOU MUST TO SAVE BEING SCAMMED, BUT DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING AFTER THE INITUAL CONTRACT. The Victoria Falls portion was great!
