A great 2 day Safari, booked at the last minute
I highly recommend Dallas Africa Safaris & would definitely travel with them again. My plans changed suddenly and I had 2 spare days - so I went online and filtered 2 day Safaris. Within an hour (and after 5pm) I had an email quote and a WhatsApp message. I spoke with the owner, Tunu, and he was near my hotel at his gym, so came by to have a chat afterwards. He answered my questions & I could book for the next mornings tour. I had had other quotes, upwards of USD 300 more for the exact same tour, with the same overnight stay, so I was very happy about the price.
Our driver, Godson, picked me up on time, & was very informative on the first day, driving out to Tarangire National Park. He took us to different spots to see all of the animals - we could tell he himself is a big fan of seeing lions - especially when they are in the trees. At the end of the day, he saw that we made it to the couple of different hotels that we had opted for (Budget, mid-range, etc).
On the second day the group was slightly different, as others had booked a single day and joined us. We went to Ngorongoro Crater. Here we drove to different parts of the reserve and saw many different animals. Godson was a little quieter today, but we had someone in the group that was very informative, and liked to talk - so maybe it was just a matter of not wanting to compete. He was still informative and made sure that we saw the different areas, and various animals, making an effort to point out animals that were far away and hard to see (for us it was the Rhinos).
Lunch was great on both days - consisting of typical Tanzanian food, rice with a vegetable sauce, and chicken - all set out at a picnic table in warmed pots, with plates. No lunch packs to be thrown away. Drinks were also provided. It was top quality!
Afterwards, we were taken back to Arusha, and Tunu again came to make the final journey, taking me back to my hotel. We had a great chat, talking about his life, studies and dreams. Tunu has worked hard to build this business, and has done a great job!
If you are looking for a really good company, that cares about the individual, this is the right place!

Hermosa is efficient
Hermosa Life are very efficient in communication. They respond to inquires promptly and are very professional about their work. when we had to visit their office they kept in touch giving direction until we arrived. They did not disappoint us in any way and met our expectations with everything under their control. They provided us with more than enough snacks, our lunch was pre-ordered so we could have more time touring Akagera park. Oh our guide/drive Claude; was punctual, knowledgeable, patient and a good conversionist. He anticipated our needs even before we made a request. Our visit to Akagera National park was satisfactory. Our vehicle was in good condition and Claude was a good driver. did i tell you he also made sure we had a good view of all the animals we encountered? Contact hermosa Life when in Rwanda to give good a deserving tour of the Akagera National park in the eastern province.

Great safari trip!
Abraham planned a great three day trip for us - and made sure we were comfortable throughout including checking we had enough water and could stop for photos whenever we wanted. They made an effort to get us to see as many animals as possible and the process was smooth and well run. The accommodation was basic but clean and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. There was a choice of food for each meal and it was all well cooked including the breakfast!
Would definitely recommend for a short safari trip to Murchison!

Efficient, friendly, knowledgeable
Michelle was instrumental in helping us to plan and make the most of our time on the safari. We had an excellent trip, some amazing experiences that will stay with us forever. Staying at the migration camp in Ndutu was one of the highlights.

In summary, our safari with Lion King Adventures was nothing short of extraordinary.
I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional experience my companions and I had during our safari in Tanzania with your esteemed company.
From the initial quotation process to the meticulous preparation and comprehensive information provided, your organization demonstrated excellence every step of the way. The attention to detail and clear communication truly set you apart.
I must commend our guide and driver, Freddi, whose expertise and experience were truly remarkable. Not only was he an excellent driver, ensuring our safety throughout the journey, but his deep knowledge of the wildlife and the local terrain enhanced our safari experience beyond measure. His keen eye and familiarity with the area led us to encounter all members of the Big 5 effortlessly, creating unforgettable memories that will be cherished forever.
Moreover, the selection of hotels surpassed our expectations. Each accommodation provided not only comfort and convenience but also immersed us in the beauty of the surroundings, adding an extra layer of luxury to our adventure.

Wonderful safari!
We had a fabulous 6 day / 5 night safari with Amazing Memories!
We did 1 night in Ol Pejeta, 1 night in Lake Nakuru and 3 nights in the Masai Mara. This worked out to be the perfect blend of being able to experience the smaller conservancies and more concentrated wildlife, and also the vastness of the Masai Mara.
The accommodation and food was great throughout. Our favourite spot was Ashnil Mara Camp in the Masai Mara - having a beer whilst watching the hippos and crocodiles float down the river was really special. The river side tent which we stayed in was also amazing.
The wildlife viewing was top notch and Peter did a wonderful job of making sure we got to see it all - he also had great knowledge of the different species we saw and areas we visited, which added to the overall experience. Thank you Peter!
Anne was great at answering all my queries quickly and putting together a more bespoke itinerary to suit our arrangements - which suited us perfectly.
A really wonderful experience, which we won't forget!

Excellent safari and guide
The safari was amazing, breathtaking. We were 6 adults and 2 children. Arranging everything with Louis was very smooth. Emmy was a great guide. For example, we saw several lion families, one of them just next to us, and we were the only car nearby.
The first night was spent at Red Chili Rest Camp, a nice budget hotel.
The second night we had already decided on a more expensive option, Ikorom Safari Lodge. This place was a disappointment, for example we did not all get fans or AC until really demanding it from hotel staff. Pumba Adventures should reconsider using this hotel in the future.
The transfer from the airport with Louis worked great. The transfer back to the airport with a different driver had some problems (driver wanted extra money for gas, and did not have a rope to tie our bags to the roof).
Overall amazing safari experience, with some issues that should be easy to solve.
