Perfectly orchestrated safari
We were amazed about how well organized everything was. Our guide Bakari was always doing his best to make us see all animals, landscapes und to be getting the best photos of them. The whole trip was well organised. The food was just amazing. We've enjoyed our warm meals, he was respecting our special needs as well ( vegetarian, lactose untolerance and gluten free). The orgonasors were flexible, beating uns a personalised experience ( airport und hotel pick up ..) The camping facilities were very very decent ( Toilets, tents, sleep sacks, hot shower).

Perfect!
Had a great experience booking with Leken Adventure! They were able to add us to a group safari just 2 days before it started. Everything went off without a hitch, and the free hotel was really nice. Bonus: the price was less than most of the quotes I got from other operators. Highly recommended!

Just Fabulous
We had the best experience in our lifes booking the 4 day camping safari with Lenken adventure. You can never expect better. From the beginning, Alex was there for us helping us with organization, answering our questions about the slightest details and meeting all our requests. It went all wonderfully smooth!
During the trip we have been taken care of like kings. Our cook Tadeus made us the best food ever and our driver guide Bakary was so taking care of us that we didnt find enough good words to thank him at the end. Thank you so much to all the team for such fabulous experience

Wonderful experience, unforgettable memories
The Safari was a wonderful experience. We really loved it and it overcame all our expectations. We saw almost all of the animals, even those most unusual.
Bakari was the best driver we could imagine - he gave us a lot of informations and we always had the best place to spot the animals!
And when it comes to the food - it was really delicious, varied and we were positively surprised that we always had two hot meals a day. Lucky is a really good cook!
Highly recommended!

Great
The safari was great. Communication with Alex was very fluid and he was able to accomodate all our needs. We would recommend Leken adventures for your trip.
Knowledgeable and Experienced Guides for a Successful Summit
We had a great time hiking up Kilimanjaro using the 6-day Machame route with Aggrey as the guide and his excellent crew of porters and support staff. Communication with Leken was very efficient and they answered all our questions quickly. The service was very good. We were hesitant to spend much money but found Leken very affordable.

Perfection
Hello - We are very pleased with the services of Leken Adventure and would be happy to recommend the company to anyone travelling to Tanzania. We booked our dream Honeymoon trip, and the plan included a 2 day hike up Kilimanjaro (to Madara Hut and back), a 4-day trip to the Serengeti and a 1-day safari in Ngorongoro Crater. We concluded the remainder of our trip in Zanzibar which was the wonderful end. Everything was perfect from the quality of the staff, the places we stayed, transfers and the responsiveness of the team.
For the hike, we had Agri coordinate and Amani as our guide who was fantastic because he had the best botanical knowledge (he also took us on an impromptu walk of the Moshi market and it was great to learn how the locals go about their day to day). Benson was our other guide and was also great as he entertained us with local stories and always reminded us to hike "pole pole" up the mountain. Our chef and porter Eduardo was also amazing and did a fantastic cook for us that included a delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. Be sure to tip these guys because going up an down with all that heavy load is no easy feat!
Hamza was our guide for the safari drives and he was the best there is. He gave us the right information, was very cheerful, resourceful and gave us full confidence in seeing all the big 5 animals (lions, water buffalos, rhinos, leopards and elephants) not just once but multiple times! He was also very accommodating and was happy to wake up early to give us as much time as we needed to explore more. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and friend. He truly lives the motto 'hakunamatata' and ensured we were smiling and laughing for four days straight. Also, in terms of places to stay, we really enjoyed the recommendations to stay at Kontiki (an unreal, 5-star camp site in the Serengeti) and Rhino Lodge (by Ngorongoro - the chef here is 1stclass!).
And finally, Alex was our main POC and was always available on WhatsApp for calls, questions or on the spur decisions. He was wonderful and constantly in touch. Big ASANTESAN from us to you for organizing and all your professionalism!
We 100% recommend Leken Adventure to anyone looking to travel to Tanzania. They offer customized plans based on your budgets and will go the extra mile to ensure you have the best time.
Lots of love,
Justin & Ivanka

Wonderful experience
I experienced amazing six days in Kilimanjaro, and that is a reliable agency, they can arrange everything well. AGREY is a good guide full of responsibility and enthusiasm. I highly recommend him and Leken Adventure
The best tour operator I have ever used!!
We booked through Leken to do a 6 day, Kilimanjaro hike and it was the experience of a lifetime which was all down to the team we had. As soon as I reached out to enquire about the hike, I had a response almost immediately - our options were explained in full and the booking process was simple. I had none of the required clothing so it was all arranged for me to hire what was needed and 3 days after my initial enquiry, we were on our way!
The guides were fantastic and motivated us from start to finish. The chef provided 3 delicious meals a day and every person on our team was friendly, supportive and helpful. The accommodation all the way up the mountain exceeded our expectations.
We would not have made it to the summit if it had not been for Leken. We were well looked after and we enjoyed every moment. A massive thanks to all involved and especially to the guides who took photos for us at the top and who helped carry our personal backpacks when we were struggling. The views and memories made will stay with us forever!! I highly recommend Leken Adventures and would definitely book through them again. Brilliant value for money.

Amazing experience
The safari was amazing, our guide, Jonas, did an incredible job finding the animals and providing explanations, 10/10 for him. Food was also delicious and portions were more than enough, they even had vegan option. Accommodation was also very nice. However, previously to the safari, during the payment day, they forgot that one of us will do the payment in euros, and also the credit card terminal didn't work, so we had a little trouble. Also, our group was of 7 people, and we paid 4 different prices, so always try to negotiate.
