Experienced, responsive and honest
My husband and I recently went on a safari organized by Into Adventure Safaris and visited Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Oldepai Gorge and Amboseli. Ben, our guide, was very responsive and accountable. The tour operator was flexible on our choice of accommodations and tried to secure the hotels we requested. I have a gluten allergy and Ben was always very careful to convey this to any hotel we went to and made sure I could eat safely. All our hotels were really nice (except for one, but had changed management recently). It was one in a life time adventure. We enjoyed our journey very much. Benson, our guide, was professional, had excellent interpersonal skills, very knowledgeable of flora and fauna. Benson could recognize any birds and was patient to answer all questions. Ben certainly loves his job and loves to explore the savannah. Robert was our guide in Tanzania and was really sweet and attentive. Are you ready for your next adventure? Hold on tight, as this is definitely the start of a good one!

Excellent service from Edith at Kenya Safari Arcade.
Edith was brilliant, having been to Kenya many times before I thought I knew exactly what I wanted. Edith was great at offering advice and alternatives if she thought my itinerary could be improved. Value for money was important and I really think you would be hard pressed to find better. We had a wonderful holiday in the Mara although June is probably not the best time to go as the grass is so long and the animals have plenty of cover to hide in. I would recommend Keekorok Lodge for accommodation and will definitely use Kenya Safari Arcade for our next holiday.

Very professional
I highly recommend organizing a safari with Kilimanjaro Trekking Mate. Very good treatment by Nick. He resolved all our doubts before the safari and made us a tailor-made itinerary. Julias, our driver-guide, was fantastic. The accommodations were of a very good quality. A great experience!

Full on service providers - No regrets
I have just returned from a dual location safari (Botswana & Zimbabwe) having taken two young children (8 & 11) plus 2 pensioners. You can find cheaper options...but this also has a price! This was a thoroughly professional and well organised schedule with excellent personalised support throughout. Ines was super helpful with suggestions and input. Hotels were brilliant, staff phenomenal and the entire trip super smooth with every detail considered. I would not hesitate to use again.

Wonderful people with quality and efficient service.
We had an incredible 5 day drive with Samuel, our 'nature man' guide. His knowledge and personality made our time so special. The accommodation, meals and activities provided were all amazing and everyone we met made our stays easy and comfortable. Explorer Kenya went above and beyond! Cannot wait to return again.

Great, personal service - Wonderful Safari
More than 2 years ago I first contacted Lion King Adventures to plan a trip to Tanzania. I found them by researching on the internet and I must confirm all the good reviews I read.
Our trip got cancelled several times, obviously due to the Corona-situation. In all that time I stayed in close contact with Lion King and they were always understanding, helpful and very flexible. Many, many e-mails were sent, and I always kept the feeling problems would be solved and we would be very welcome once we could finally make the trip. Many thanks to Pendo for this!!
This July we finally made our trip to Tanzania and all the good things I expected from Lion King were confirmed. They really care about their customers and you feel welcome, at home and they take care of you. We made a beautiful trip to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. All that time we were joined by our driver Khalifa. He was always very friendly, helpful, with good knowledge of the parks, animals, country,.. He became good friends with our two children! Nothing was too much for him: getting up early to drive to a nice spot for sunrise, bringing me to the location for the night safari, taking care of the pick-nicks every day… We would like to thank him for a great week, and can only recommend him as a driver for future safaris.
Don’t hesitate to book with Lion King if you are considering this organisation, you won’t regret it. Also a special thanks to make our trip extra memorable with the attentions they organised for birthdays, anniversary,… You get the feeling you are more than just the next customer for them.
Maybe some small advice: we did two excursions on top of the ‘regular’ program (Empakai crater and night safari at Lake Manyara). I would not recommend these activities very much, so maybe it is something to reconsider. Also a bit more communication regarding the ongoing migration in the Serengeti and the possibilities to visit/see there could be an improvement.
But as mentioned before, we couldn’t be happier to have chosen Lion King Adventures for our amazing holiday!

Wonderful, astonishing and beautiful Uganda
In August 2021 we had a two weeks holiday trip through Uganda with Big Apes Africa and Peter as a guide.
It was an astonishing experience, we have seen wonderful landscapes and a big number of the most beautiful animals including lions, elephants, zebras, gnus and a variety of birds.
Two of the most astonishing experiences where the walks through Chimbale National Parks to visit the Chimpanses and the trip into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest were we had the chance to watch a Gorilla family from close range. It was a breathtaking experience and one that we never will forget in our whole life.
Traveling Uganda we absolutely can recommend and the best way is choosing Big Apes Africa.
All the Best

Amazing
I’ve done a 4day Safari organized by Suricata and everything has been perfectly planned: picking up, Hotel safari, meals, guiding tours, etc.
I want to underline the good quality of the jeep (option of charging phones and cameras, space between seats, sometimes music during long ways…) and also the really tasty, traditional healthy meals that Tito cooked specially for us.
The safari also went as planned and everyday we had a briefing of what we were going to see and do.
I would 100% recommend Suricata
