Higly recommened!!
It was more then a journey but a life expirience! Uganda is one of the most beautiful places we ever seen and its people are amazing! Karumuna Safaris will make every wish come true. Game drive in queen elizabeth national park, gorilla trekking, sunrise walking in lake mburu national park and some other more.
Richard best guide ever!

Perfect organization for a wonderful trip
We booked a few trips with Obrey Safaris and everything was perfect! They were always on schedule, the van driver was very friendly and the guides were outstanding!! They also had a photographer that took amazing pictures of us! If we ever come back we would book again this organization, they made our trip to Tanzania a lot better!!

Helpful, professional Namibia and Southern Africa tour operator with a human touch
We returned home last week after a wonderful holiday in Namibia and Victoria Falls. We just wanted to say a big thank you to SWA Safaris for organising our programme. The accommodation and itinerary you chose suited us very well.
We also wanted to say how much we appreciated Rion, our guide. Right from the start he made us feel very welcome and that continued throughout our stay. He was always happy to answer our (often many!) questions about animals, wildlife, culture, etc in Namibia and that gave us so much more insight and understanding of your country than if we had been visiting by ourselves.
He remained calm and positive in even challenging circumstances, such as the sandstorm we encountered in the desert. His common sense made us feel safe and in the end we did get to experience one of the sand dunes when the weather finally allowed.
He was very good at keeping us on schedule, even if getting a family of five to be ready to leave by 8am on holiday is not an easy task! But he also gave us a nice mix of being together and some time alone, which I’m sure he also needed as some of the days involved quite a lot of driving.
We particularly appreciated his willingness to go above and beyond, for example when after two days in Etosha when we still hadn’t seen a lion - he took us out for a third time after he heard that there was a male lion not far from our lodge!! Thanks Rion for that!!
We have come home with beautiful photos of countryside and animals and even more beautiful memories to treasure. We will not hesitate to recommend SWA Safaris to any friends or family interested in visiting Namibia.

Fantastic Kenya-based operator
We have just returned to the UK after an amazing holiday with Morning Star. When we booked, we had wanted to use a Kenya-based operator rather than a UK based one and were really impressed with Morning Star - and also their quoted price was was way less than any other companies too! Robert very patiently tailored our ever-changing itinerary plans - thank you so much!
All the hotels and lodges in Nairobi / Masai Mara / Nakuru / Amboseli / Tsavo / Diani Beach were great - we particularly recommend : Sarova Panafric in Nairobi, Ziwa Bush Lodge in Nakuru, and Papillon Reef at Diani Beach.
Our drivers for safaris up to Masai Mara / Nakuru and then to Amboseli / Tsavo were fantastic - prompt, knowledgeable etc - especially Alex who also drove us around Nairobi on a 'memory-lane' tour, to friends homes and came along to church with us on Sunday too!!
Thank you Morning Star - we have no hesitation in recommending you to other travellers - top, top service!!!!

Great experience in Ruaha
Great value for price. Right from the beginning the communication was great with Mansoor Mohamed, friendly but also professional. We needed to make adjustments to our tour dates short before our trip, which he kindly arranged without any problems. Our tour guide Serafino was amazing. His English was great and he had a lot to tell about the environment and animals all throughout our journey. In the beginning of our safari there was a problem with our car but he found creative ways to work around it and we still got the full safari experience we payed for. Our meals were always at a restaurant in the campsite, delicious and big portions. The bandas and the restaurant are located right next to the Great Ruaha River, so you get to observe many animals from there already. During our safari we saw giraffes, elephants, zebras, buffaloes, crocodiles, hippos, dikdiks, antilopes, warthogs, eagles, a big pride of lions and a leopard. I did see more animals in total in Serengeti-Ngorongoro, but we preferred to come to Ruaha at this time of the year since the national parks in the North get very crowded and in the end in Ruaha we never felt like it was crowded, was most of the time the only car next to the animals and got to see some of the animals a lot closer than I did in the North.
To me this was a perfect honest safari experience. I have two other experiences of safaris in different locations in Tanzania, and this was the most pleasant experience I had with a company. Serafino took great care of us, even helped us with getting bus tickets in Iringa and Baobab seeds from the market. I would highly recommend working with this company!

Passionate for nature
Beautiful 5 day trip, everything went super well, our driver Rocky was very knowledgeable with great introductions to the places we were and the animals we would see, would stop at our convenience, he would spot animals while driving that we couldn't see while standing up on the truck.
Honestly this is the trip and package if you are on your honeymoon, there's nothing quite like it, from the variety of fauna and flora, the wildly different landscapes, to the gorgeous hotels and villas we slept in.
It's beautiful, breathtaking and we're definitely going to do it again with suricata safaris!

Fabulous safari company with excellent service from start to finish.
From the very first communication with a Lion King representative in their office to our wonderful safari guide Immanuel, there is nothing more to say but book your safari experience with this company. Immanuel was nothing but brilliant with his excellent knowledge, ensuring we saw all of the animals, which also included a rare and wonderful sighting of the endangered black rhino with her baby. Immanuel never failed in getting us the best photo opportunities. Some advice would be to ask for Immanuel if you can as your guide! We stayed in some excellent accommodations, including the Arusha Coffee Lodge and the Lemala Nanyukie in the Serengeti. Thank you Lion King Adventures.

Best 5 days ever
We did the luxury 5 day tour for our honeymoon and couldn't be more happy about it. Rocky was our guide and he was constantly explaining different facts about the animals we would see, always trying to surprise us (asking us to close our eyes before we would get to a spot) and always had an answer to our questions.
The hotels picked by Suricata for our stay were amazing as well, with great views, amazing rooms and incredibly helpful staff.
Loved every minute of it!!!
