Dan from Kisouro Tours Uganda took us on a 2 day trip to Mburo National Park.
A hugely enjoyable trip-very organised with safe driving and very comfortable accommodation with beautiful food and attentive staff. The amount of animals and birds we experienced was spectacular and exhilarating. So many species of birds plus crocodiles, hippos, zebra, giraffes, warthog, mongoose, snake, monkeys, frogs and many antelope. We had a wonderful time and can't wait til our next trip with Dan.

Wonderful 7 day Safari with Lion King Adventures
My wife and I just returned from a 1 week safari in Tanzania organized by Lion King Adventures. We had a wonderful time. We really liked our guide Khalifa, who made sure we saw everything we wanted to see. We went to Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Ndutu, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro crater. Each day was a completely different experience in terms of the environment and variety of animals. We saw every type of animal we hoped to see, including panthers, cheetahs, lions, hippos, rhinos, elephants, cape buffalo, zebras, giraffes, and wildebeests. We even got to witness a wildebeest being born, and watched it learn to walk and then run in just a few minutes. In many cases the animals were right next to our jeep. We stayed at luxury hotels where all of our needs were attended to. We cannot say enough positive things about how well Lion King Adventures helped us plan this trip and arranged it to meet our desires. This was a trip of a lifetime for us, and we are very thankful for Lion King Adventures making this possible.

Worthy of being the first choice for an African visit
Tanzania is one of Africa’s main centres for wildlife safaris and from our short experience it deserves to be on everyone’s list. We went in February and there was plenty of wildlife and the weather wasn’t too hot.
The parks manage the influx of tourists well and the guides make every effort to minimise their presence on the wildlife. The safaris are supported by a variety of accommodation allowing choice based on price and facilities.
The people are welcoming, friendly and have an unexpected proficiency in the English language. At no time did we have concerns for our personal safety.
Tanzania has everything for a pleasurable experience and definitely imparts the desire to return.

Serengeti great, ngonrongoro even better
We did a 4 day safari with SafariSoles and our great guide Raymond. Just us in the 4x4.
All the accommodation was clean and well looked after. It's important to note that in Serengeti you shouldn't expect luxury westernised hotels. Lodges and camps are exactly that. The staff are unfailingly polite and helpful.
The food is freshly prepared but simple. Don't expect loads of options.
We stayed at Serengeti Lodge, Sero tented camp and Rhino Lodge. Great and different experiences. You will hear the wildlife very close by.
We were lucky to see the big 5. You need luck but it helps if your guide is knowledgeable as ours was. The serengeti is vast, the ngonrongoro crater is absolutely amazing.
Breathtaking scenery looking down at the crater. The scenery at Rhino Lodge was good too.
The weather was hot but we were always comfortable. No issues with mosquitoes, tsetse flies were annoying in one zone but only temporarily.
Met a few Masai when stopping for lunch.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Tony C
I don't know why but we expected more wildlife given they are constrained by the crater.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Tony C
By far the best destination. Abundant wildlife and big enough so that the safari vehicles were not crowded together

Review about Nyerere National Park by Harald Schulz
It were not the big five but maybe in the other national parks. We were in the wrong national park to see them.
This were the first safari and visit in Tansania .It was a great visit in this national park and we saw many another animals.
Our expectations were perhaps too high because we didn't get proper information before the tour.
The animals do what they want and not what we want.
