Fantastic
Elvis was great sorting out our safari. From start to finish. Taxi was comfortable to the airport. Where we met Elvis. Gave us a briefing about safari. Also meeting us when we landed back at the airport.
Tour guide and driver Eric was great also. Taking us to all the right places to see the animals. We did a private tour. Supplied us with cold drinks whilst driving around.
Stopped for lunch. Again also very good.
Overall a really great time had. So thank you Elvis and the team. For making this a day never to forget

Professional service always kept in contact and answered any questions promptly.
From the moment we booked Jessica was in constant contact keeping us informed. We were collected from our hotel (more than an hours drive from the airport) on time. Elvis explained what to expect from the day and on touch down at Mikumi airstrip we were met by our guide, Douglas. On the drives before and after lunch he found Elephants, Zebras, Giraffes, Hippos, Lionesses with young and with cubs, Babboons, Buffalo, Leopard, Jacket and different varieties of Impalas. Would highly recommend.

Thorough and very responsive…in a word, excellent.
Elvis, the tour operator was a pleasure to deal with. We changed the itinerary a couple of times before finalizing things, and he always brought excellent options to the table. He was available before and during the safari to answer questions and help out if an unexpected twist arose. Christian, our private tour guide who was with us during the safari, was both a suburb driver as well as a vast knowledge of information about all things we encountered while on the game drives. The only hiccup we encountered during our trip was with the airlines, and in no way was related to Lekobe’s planning. Everything involving them went off perfectly. Would highly recommend.

Amazing time with Ernest
From the moment we started planning the Safari tour we got everything we needed, fast and graceful service and communication throughout the planning. The Safari itself was above and beyond what we expected. 5 days of packed experiences. The choice of reserves for the season and lodging options were great, Anantya in the Serengeti aspeicily. Ernest, the experienced and excellent Safari guide we got kept is a kind and gentle man who made great efforts for us to have incredible animal encounters. He understood our vibe and preferences, and offered everything accordingly. He was extremely knowledgeable and could give us great explanations about the geography, geology and all the animals.

Very reliable and professional.
We booked a one-day fly-in/fly-out safari with Lekobe Adventures. Elvis' response to our initial inquiry came within minutes. I thought this was just the initial activity to secure new business, but Elvis' communication before, during and after the event was equally prompt, complete and accurate.
On the day of the safari, a driver picked us up at our hotel at 04:30. We flew from ZNZ to Mikumi on a much larger aircraft than usual (ATR-42). Elvis met us at the airport, explained how the day will go and accompanied us to airport security.
The safari itself was great - we saw all the animals that were there to see in Mikumi. But it was raining all morning and was really overcast the whole afternoon - but the weather is the only one thing that Lekobe Adventures cannot really influence.
On our return, there was a driver supposed to be waiting for us at the airport. But he wasn't. Following a quick call to Elvis he called the driver, reassured us on his arrival and continued to check with us several times before the driver arrived (in about 15 minutes). Later the same day we received a formal apology from Lekobe for delay of the driver.
I contacted two other agencies before booking with Elvis but the first one provided just a general response without any details, and the other one promised a response but never replied. Lekobe provided a personalised response with exhaustive level of detail to start with.
After the safari we booked also another trip with Lekobe and were not dissappointed. They seem to be one of very few organisations in Zanzibar providing high-quality and reliable services.

Caring & efficient
The team at LeKOBE adventure safaris are professionals who are quick to respond and are interested in their guests having the best time . They love their country so they want you to have the best experience . My friend and I had door to door service . There was always one of the LeKOBE team there to help when requested. Eric the guide was knowledgeable, had incredible eyesight- he could spot animals camouflaged miles away and was super helpful.

Very relatable and professional
I flew with my two children for a one-day safari from Zanzibar to Mikumi.. I was impressed that the company is very, very reliable and professional. The pickup from the hotel was on time, while the company representative professionally took care of everything required until we boarded the plane. Eric, the great safari guide, was very professional. He was waiting for us at the Mikumi reserve. We spent an amazing day that left us with an unforgettable positive experience. Later, Upon our return to Zanzibar, the driver was just as impressive, waiting for us at the airport and driving us towards our hotel. The service we have experienced was mentioned, was kind and professional. LeKobe is Highly recommended!!!

World class operators who really take " duty of care " seriously and intentionally.
This was a one in a life time trip for my friend and me. We were in Dar Salam to attend a conference. We thought we would get a safari in before our meetings. We got in touch with Lekobe Adventures Safaris by email and within a day Jessica responded. We thought we wanted to go to the serengeti because thats all we knew and she proposed options based on the time we had and our budget. Finally we chose Mukumi park - a two day safari via an express train to and from Dar Salam. One of the things I really appreciated was when I asked if we could change the accomodation because my research showed that what they suggesting didnt meet my standards. I found another place, they immediately made the change at a small cost.
Communication before we arrived in Tanzania was consistent with information on what to pack and what to expect, The day before our safari - Elvis tour coordinator came and gave us briefing at the hotel - he was kind, knowledgeable and made us feel so excited about the trip. We were picked up at 4am by Michael who drove us to the trainstation and where we were met by Elvis. He checked us in - we had royal class tickets which is basically 1st class tickets. The train was clean, modern and comfortable. The two hour ride was over in 2 hours.
Our tour guide Eric was a humble person who was super knowledgeable, non intrusive and always made sure that we were having a good time. He was so skilled that we got to see many of the animals on our bucket list including lions, leopard, zebras, giraffes, water buffalos, hippos, crocodiles and many birds and slithering lizards and snakes.
Our tented accomodation a Vuma was stunning , luxurious and just surreal. The food - 3 course meals for dinner was sooooo good and breakfast - too good as we say in Fiji. All I got to say is that I am super impressed and the memories I have of my safari is thanks to the amazing team at Lekobe adventures.

Amazing
Definitely recommended! Our honeymoon was made something very special by the perfectly organized 4-day safari. During the game drives, our wishes and ideas were taken into account and we managed to see all of the Big 5. Many thanks again to Elvis, who was very concerned about our well-being and made this unforgettable dream possible for us.
Perfect
They are super professional they have organised eveything from A to Z to have the best time of our lives
