Meektrails exceeds our expectations
After a year of planning we finally landed in Kenya for my first Safari trip which turned out to be the most unique and amazing trip I’ve ever had! The company was very responsive with our questions and provided detailed information and itinerary. From the first morning pick-up at the hotel to the last day drop-off in the airport we experienced the company’s professional services by the staff especially our guide/driver Wawero Phillips. One of our luggages got lost by the airline, on the third day when we left Amboseli for Lake Navasha, Phillips drove us pre-dawn to avoid the potential risks from the area’s protest event and stopped by the airport helping us to pick up the delayed luggage. During the 9-day safari tour, Phillips used his wide knowledge, enthusiasm and sense of humour to make our trip so fulfilling leaving us numerous unforgettable memories. When he noticed that we were a little disappointed not able to see the cheetah and leopard after the first few days, he offered us a 5am early morning game drive to increase the chances to see more animals. It turned out to be an extremely worthwhile decision. Not only we saw active lions at the close distance in multiple areas and many other animals but also we watched beautiful sunrise with giraffes in Lake Nakuru which was a picture perfect for me. We eventually watched two cheetahs walking right towards our jeep in Masai Mara later. Phillips also cleaned up the jeep and made sure we got new water bottles every day. He was always there if we had any concerns about meals, washroom service, safety tips and local cultures. Although we saw every animal we wanted to see except for the leopard, we have no regret because we will leave it next time to see them! This trip has left us million enjoyable moments, the animals, the landscape, the people. See you next time, leopard, see you Africa!

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Lion King Adventures
We just returned from a 5-day safari with Lion King Adventures in Tanzania, and it was truly an extraordinary experience from start to finish. The company was exceptionally well organized – every detail was thoughtfully planned, transfers were punctual, and the accommodations exceeded our expectations in both comfort and location.
Our itinerary included Tarangire, 2 days in the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. Each park offered something unique, and the wildlife sightings were absolutely unforgettable. We had the chance to see cheetahs, lionesses stalking zebras, and even lions feeding on a fresh kill – it felt like living inside a nature documentary.
We are especially grateful to Lion King Adventures for delivering such a professional, seamless, and enriching experience. It’s clear they have deep knowledge of the region and a genuine passion for what they do. Everything was designed to make our trip worry-free and full of wonder.
A special mention also to our guide, Isaya, for his kindness, knowledge, and flexibility throughout the journey.
We 100% recommend Lion King Adventures to anyone looking for a well-organized, safe, and truly unforgettable safari in Tanzania. A lifetime experience!

Amazing experience with Lion King Adventures
We did a multi-day safari in the Serengeti with Lion King Adventures and it was absolutely amazing. We were three friends traveling together and everything was super easy to organize and book. They adapted the trip to our pace, picked us up at the airport, and arranged our return transfer too—very convenient.
Our guide, Isaya, was fantastic: friendly, knowledgeable, and always attentive. Thanks to him, we saw all the animals we were hoping for—even the elusive leopard! He really went out of his way to make the experience unforgettable.
Highly recommended. A trip we’ll never forget!

Wonderful!
Had a wonderful time in Namibia thanks to Kooper and Berlinda! Berlinda was kind and available to answer my questions, the accommodations were beautiful and well located and the journey was well planned. Kooper is an excellent driver and a good guide. He took me to explore breathtaking scenery from desert to ocean and everything in between! He always had answers to my questions and as a solo female traveler I felt safe with him.

He make us feel warm
We had an unforgettable safari experience, and we owe a big part of it to our amazing guide, Stanley, and the helpful support from Almachius.
Stanley was everything we could have hoped for in a guide—knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife. He made every game drive exciting and insightful, sharing fascinating facts about the animals and environment while always making sure we felt safe and comfortable. His passion for nature truly made the trip special.
We also want to thank Almachius, who was a great help behind the scenes. When we ran into an issue with our accommodation, he responded quickly and professionally, resolving the problem smoothly and ensuring that we could relax and enjoy the rest of our trip without stress.
Thanks to both Stanley and Almachius, our safari was an incredible and memorable adventure. Highly recommended

Fun and very professional safari tour in Pilanesberg
Went on a day safari tour from Midrand/Johannesburg to Pilanesberg National Park. Drivers and vehicles both to and within the park were great. Our guide Petrus was very professional, fun and nice and we saw lots of animals, some right next to the car like a big herd of elephants. We went in July and even though the daytime temperature reached some 17 C/60 F, it was really chilly in the morning with the wind blowing in the open vehicle, so recommend a good and warm wind proof jacket. Great experience, really recommended!

Extremely helpful, communicative, and knowledgeable
Our trip planner with Viatu was incredibly helpful. They provided many options for us to choose from and in a quick and prompt manner. Their knowledge of the areas, activities, and lodges was invaluable. With our limited knowledge of the area we were going to, it made everything a whole lot smoother and more comfortable booking with their expertise. And once we booked, the travel prep + quick responsiveness while we were on our trip was also very good.

We made Johnson’s nickname “Superman!!”
Perfect amount of time to cover everything we wanted to. Johnson was the best!! So accommodating and made sure we were all great. Stayed in all different level properties to get different feels for different types of lodges. Definitely had our favorites. Would have liked to have done a sunrise drive.
Great value!!!
