best safaritour ever!!
5/5

The communications and service were perfect!! It needed just 2 mails and the safari was booked. Everything was clear since the beginning. We were picked up from the airport as agreed. Our guide Simon was the best guide we could imagine. He was so effort, knowing, considerate and talkative. Our cook "the stomach engineer" conjured delicious dishes! For breakfast we had omelettes, pancakes, sausages, toast, jam, coffee, hot chocolate. The lunch boxes were surprisingly tasty. Everything was selfmade by "the stomach engineer". These two guys made the safari an unforgettable experience!
Thank you so much for that!!

4/5

It was a well organized tour.. the Agent Rose was very helpful in getting everything organized and ready by the time i landed in Nairobi. I do recommend that you make it be know what sort of accommodation you want and they will organize accordingly.

Overall was very satisfied with the service. Ask for Rose she'll get everything sorted and ready by the time you arrive.

5/5

We booked a 3 days trip to Masai Mara. The communication before was very good. Thank you Esther. Reply on questions was fast and before leaving it was clear what we needed to take with us .
We got a very good guide,(thank you to Esther again for arranging this) who had a lot of experience. It really was an adventure. It was also very nice to see how all the guides work as a team, younger less experienced guides were advised so all the groups got a nice safari.
Also the lounge was a nice place with friendly personal.

Excellent / well organized
5/5

It was perfect, i contacted the agency with Whassap 1 week before coming to Nairobi.
I planned everything by Whassap with the agency, and everything happened as I expected. The program was repected.

The safari tour is an amazing experience but i want to focus about the organization and how well it was.

Amazing safari experience organized to perfection
5/5

We organized our safari through Lion King Adventures and couldn't be more happy about choosing them as our safari operator. Everything was customized according to our needs and their customer service was fast and helpful prior to our arrival inTanzania.

Everything from the airport pickup to the drop off after our safari worked extremely well and on schedule. All accommodations were nice and the food was very good.The safari itself exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Ozzie was truly passionate about the animals and gave us interesting facts about them. He was also a very positive person and fun to hang around with. We saw all the animals (incl. Big 5) we were hoping to see thanks to our awesome safari guide Ozzie and a bit of luck.

Special thanks to our contact person Anna and safari guide Ozzie for an amazing job.

If you're looking for a well-organized and high-quality safari experience, you should book your safari via Lion King Adventures!

Aquila is not a safari. It is a game park. As long as you understand that...
4/5

I am in South Africa for just a short time. I didn't want to schlep up to the Kruger for a safari. This seemed ideal. 2 hours from cape town and reasonably priced. The pluses - food was good and plentiful. The staff were nice. John the safari guide was funny and knowledgeable. The minuses- the luxury cottages are not really luxury. The paint was peeling. There was graffiti on the door , the outside shower was very badly put together and it was dirty outside especially the table.

The camp is basically a very large zoo so you are guaranteed to see lions. To be fair to the camp the lions are rescued canned lions and are unable to fend for themselves.

So my advice is just go for the night. You will get two games drives which will basically be the same. Don't bother with the horseback safari unless you really like just strolling around.

Perfect from beginning to end!
5/5

My trip to Africa spanned nearly 30 days beginning in Cape Town, then to Johannesburg, Nairobi, Victoria Falls, and ending in Tanzania. I was so fortunate that the last 10 days were with our exceptional guide, Emmanuel.

Emanuel was more than an experienced guide, he is a wise naturalist. Not only did he know the names and habits of every single animal and bird we saw, he knew the botanical names for every piece of flora and fauna. And the man has bionic eyes! We came to know we were always in for a real treat when he would slowly pull our land cruiser to a stop and peer quietly out the window. And then he would point and say "look right there… it's a female lion… it's a black rhino… it's a herd of elephants…" Then he would drive us closer, often getting within five feet the amazing animals we had traveled so far to see. Emanuel was more than a guide, he became a friend.

Our accommodations and food exceeded our expectations every step of the way. On our next to last night in Tanzania, I discovered that a couple in our group was celebrating their 37th wedding anniversary. I passed the word to Emmanuel, who apparently radioed back to the chef at our camp. That night the chef had prepared a beautiful cake, inscribed with their names, complete with candles, which the entire staff presented with a fabulous dance throughout the tents singing a cheerful African song. I am sure that is a night they will never forget. I know I never will.

I am longing to return to Tanzania and my first contact will be Emmanuel. Thank you for memories that will last a lifetime!

4/5

The scenery and wildlife were all I could have asked for. Weather was great, u fortunately my tour agent sub let the provision of the safari to a third party who left a great deal to desire, uninsured vehicle, faults on vehicle meaning engine couldn't be turned off, door flew open during safari and had to be held shut with a seat belt for 2 days, non provision of tents and sleeping bags at campsites and so it went on, luckily we were a group of 4 who bonded and turned the adversity into an adventure.

My tour agent was really helpful at resolving the issues at the end of the safari and he was certainly let down by the provider and I can't fault my tour agent. I continued on to zanzibar and that was as fantastic. In terms of wildlife and scenery and my agent certainly pulled out the stops showing me the best of the island with some really good trips around the island.
