Best Safari experience: Hakuna Matata!
We went for 2 days in Mikumi for a safari.
Matata was our guide. As he is a « land man » he can give you very nice information about Tanzania and its surroundings.
We left Dar es Salaam in the morning and were in the park around 4pm to enjoy 2h30 of safari !
We saw lioness and her babies, cuddling !!
We would like to warmly thank Matata and Daily expeditions for this unforgettable moment.
Going on a safari with this agency his hassle free because everything is under control : park entrance, lodge, food, car...
You really should go there with them !

David was a exceptional guide and I would definitely recommend Safari Nature Trails to anyone planning a holiday.

Wonderful experience
Dicky is a very friendly and reliable man. We had super nice days with him. The car had some problems, but Dicky solved that nicely. He took care of us and made us feel safe. He knows a lot about the animals and the areas in Kenya. The safari was unforgettable. We recommend this to everyone.

Wild Wings Safaris - absolute perfection !
Wild Wings Safaris completely hit the spot with my intentions to visit South Africa.
As a solo traveler on a voyage of self discovery, decided on a last minute trip to connect with nature at Kruger safari, as well as soak up the city sights in Cape Town.
My rep (Michael Malan) put together the perfect itinerary, based on my specifications & took care of everything from end to end - all I had to do was rock up & enjoy the experience, which I certainly did.
A formidable & trustworthy company, who also presented great value for money.
I will not hesitate to re-book.... hopefully soon :)

An incredible experience that was great value for money
It was an amazing experience and we could not believe the value for money. We will recommend this trip to all our friends in Dubai. Richard and Albert were absolutely fantastic and were always punctual, informative and helpful ! I really cannot thank you and your staff enough. Everything was included in the price - accommodation, all meals (which were lovely), trips, entrance fees etc. The safari van was comfortable with plenty of stops along the way to stretch our legs. We also learned a lot about different types of animals etc.

Trip of a lifetime in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara!
Lion King Adventures was recommended by friends who lived in Arusha for many years and the 4-day camping safari was far better than I had imagined. Some of the most breathtaking scenery and so many animals – lions, elephants, hippos, a close encounter with a black rhino, and so much more! Our guide, David was an exceptional driver and found the best sites for viewing animals every day. Our chef, Yusufu, was a delight, supplying (too much) great food, and interesting conversation. The camp sites and tents were comfortable and very well organized. The extra bonus was the Olduvai Gorge Site Museum in the cradle of mankind . David and Yusufu made the trip a total success. I have already recommended Lion King Adventures to my co-workers back home.

Elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, wildebeest and so many more
My husband and I were in Tanzania for 1 week. The primary focus of our trip was a 6 day safari. We went to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area/Crater, Serengeti National Park (2 days), and Lake Manyara National Park. We really enjoyed them all with the exception of Lake Manyara. In comparison to the other areas, it did not have as much wildlife. Tarangire had the most elephants. We saw two black rhinos from a distance while at Ngorongoro and while in the Serengeti we saw many lions, cheetahs, and two leopards. The wildebeest migration was more than I expected! I never knew there would be so many hippos! That was a surprise. There were also so many other animals and birds, which just made the trip.
The weather was fantastic. I was concerned that there would still be a lot of rain since we were arriving at the end of May. It only rained one of the nights we stayed overnight in the Serengeti and it really didn't impact our visit at all.
We stayed in lodges most nights, but while in the Serengeti we stayed in a tented camp and that was definitely a great experience. It brought us much closer to the wildlife. Everywhere we stayed was good to Excellent. There were a couple of places that were somewhat unusual to get to, but were definitely worth it once we arrived -Morona Hills Lodge and Escarpment Luxury Lodge; though Morona Hills Lodge didn't have enough hot water for showers.
If I changed anything about our trip, I would add another day to our time in the Serengeti and not do the day in Lake Manyara.

Top Cream manages clients perfectly and delivers the best bang for you buck on a Kenyan safari.
Top Cream did an excellent job of making my family and I feel at ease and supported while in Kenya! They made sure to discuss what was provided and made sure everyone was on the same page; even when our luggage was lost, Erastus worked tirelessly to retrieve it and get it back to us promptly. The management side of Top Cream is superb and willing to work with you on any concern. On the actual safari, we were even more blown away. David, our guide, was magnificent. He is incredibly knowledgable, on-task, and funny. We were amazed at every turn in each of the parks we visited. The accommodations lined up for us were excellent with absolutely zero complications. Even more, David understood my passion for birds, and would cater to my camera, keeping an eye out for the Big 5 as well as the odd bustard or stork. Kenya blew us away and we only have Top Cream to thank for making it all so seamless and perfect. I will hopefully be seeing them again shortly; absolute best bang for your buck on a Kenyan safari!

Well organized Safari tour
I‘ve requested several Safari tour providers. Tanzania Mwangaza was answering very fast(note your phone no. in the enquiry!).
We’ve booked a private safari with two persons for two days/one night. We were a little bit anxious because it was our first safari and we weren’t sure if everything would be working as planned(everyone who was in Africa before knows what I mean;)) They’ve sent someone to our hotel and he briefed us about the schedule and clarified everything with the payment. So we payed and if you don’t want to read everything further: We didn’t regret.
Mrs Mwajabu Sultan (CEO of Tanzania Mwangaza, according to LinkedIn) was assisting and caring all the time with daily WhatsApp updates about everything we wanted to know. She even texted me in the middle of the night if our driver has arrived for our pickup.
Our Driver Abeid was very nice, in time as planned and a good driver on the chaotic streets to the Mikumi Park.
Arrived in Mikumi we met our guide Bob and we startet the first park drive. He informed us about everything regarding the park and the animals we‘ve seen. He was in contact with all the other guides so we‘ve seen lots of animals. The next day he tried to show us the remaining animals on our „to see“-list. We‘ve not been disappointed.
I would highly recommend these guys! They are all really ambitious and organized. They are absolutely worth the price!
If you want to do a safari in the Mikumi National Park I would also recommend to go in June. We‘ve seen almost every animal on the chart within the two days. There were lots of zebras, giraffes, elephants, wildebeests, impallas, baboons and birds. At the waterholes we‘ve found hippos and crocodiles. There was a lion (unfortunately just one) and even a juvenile leopard!
