An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Lion King and Gilbert
My husband and I went on a 7-day safari organized by Lion King this September, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, everything was handled smoothly and professionally. The communication with their office staff was phenomenal—always responsive, helpful, and friendly.
Our safari guide, Gilbert, was absolutely outstanding. His knowledge of wildlife, nature, and local culture is impressive, and his sharp eyes helped us spot animals so quickly. By the second day, we had already seen four of the Big Five, and thanks to Gilbert’s skill and patience, we were lucky enough to see a rare rhino when many other guides were still searching. Beyond his expertise, Gilbert is polite, thoughtful, and always made us feel safe and comfortable. He took care of every detail so we could fully enjoy the experience.
The accommodations arranged by Lion King were also excellent—each one offering unique, pleasant, and memorable stays that perfectly complemented the safari experience.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and we cannot recommend Lion King and Gilbert highly enough. We’ll be sharing this recommendation with all our friends and family.

Bobu Africa Is All You Need for a Perfect Africa Adventure
We had a customized photography trip to Kenya and Tanzania arranged by Bobu Africa, and we couldn’t be more satisfied. Their service went above and beyond our expectations — from the driver-guides’ expertise to the well-selected lodges. We were able to see everything we had hoped for and capture the photos we planned. I highly recommend Bobu Africa to anyone looking for a successful and well-organized photography journey in East Africa.

Fantastic, Knowledgeable, Awesome!
What a great time and Jackson was our guide and he was honestly awesome!
From putting us on game to describing the area to showing us and telling us about the history of each area we visited.
The value for the money was better than expected. We didn’t have to worry about a thing from the time we were picked up at the airport to the time we were dropped off it was vey seamless the whole time we were traveling.
The whole time we never felt unsafe or anything of that nature. I would highly recommend Lion King Adventures to anyone.
The lodges and camps were better than expected and the food was out of this world.
We had the mid-range safari (walking and canoeing) included.
Lion King Adventures we feel went out of their way to make it a great trip.

5 stars! (On a scale of 1-5)
KOJUU should be your first choice when considering the TRIP of a LIFETIME safari.
Planning and Itinerary, we coordinated 13 different Itineraries with Julian from KOJUU to determine which safari plan and accommodations were right for us. We were constantly changing locations as we researched suggested accommodations, and found places we thought would be more suitable to our desires. Julian was fantastic in ensuring we had the perfect itinerary and was straight forward with billing and pertinent information.
Accommodations KOJUU set up for us were top level, clean and amazing rooms, bottled water service, Great food, exceptional choices of dietary needs and wants, hot beautiful showers, all the amenities we would ever need, safe environments, and friendly attentive professional staff. This included Kubu Kubu tented lodge, Embalakai Ngorongoro Camp, Lake Manyara Kilimanjaro Lodge, Royal Zanzibar beach resort.
All things outlined in the itinerary were fulfilled beyond expectation.
KOJUU provided BARIKI as our concierge, travel guide, animal spotter, butler, waiter, chauffeur and translator. He fulfilled all of these roles for our entire adventure with absolute professionalism. He absolutely made this adventure remarkable, top level, and a trip of a lifetime. BARIKI worked tirelessly without complaint to achieve our greatest experience we have ever had.
BARIKI was incredible at locating dozens of locations to see the BIG 5, and every animal, plant, bird, nature zone and all the great phenomena the safari has to offer. His experience in being a Master Tour Guide operator is top level.
BARIKI ensured EVERY DAY that our private vehicle was clean, washed, vacuumed everyday, with fresh cold water, beer, wine, fruit, snacks and other beverages.
BARIKI was an absolute professional in regard to communication with us, and other parties we interacted with throughout our journey.
KOJUU and BARIKI provided us with a completely fulfilled TRIP of a LIFETIME and every aspect made us feel like a million bucks. They are a TOP LEVEL provider with every detail taken care of beyond explanation.
Although, we spent some coin on this trip, it was absolutely worth every penny we spent!

Mr. Kombe is very experienced, friendly and great with communication.
I found Habitat Adventure Travel online after speaking with a friend who suggested Tanzania for a safari. The tour operator was great communicating what our options were and quickly provided a suggested itinerary that fit four of us. We were able to make a couple changes without any issues. We spent 5 days on safari with an experienced driver. The places we stayed, Gibbs Farm and Melia Serengeti were amazing. The safari parks and the animals we saw were extraordinary. Our guide was fantastic and the whole experience was once in a lifetime.

Zuriafrica safaris
Trip taken from October 19th to October 31st. Dennis, the owner, is fantastic. A semi-luxury safari. The safari portion was superb, the landscapes and animals breathtaking, with a private photographer. The hotels, the staff, the locations—everything was magnificent. Our French-speaking guide (Jeanette) was cheerful, and Max, the driver, went off the beaten track to give us the most secluded safari experience possible, avoiding large gatherings of vehicles. For the Zanzibar portion, we stayed in two hotels, both equally perfect. The first was enormous with no fewer than six swimming pools, a small town, and delicious meals. The second was facing the sea with two infinity pools. For excursions, we visited Snowtown with Medhi, a very pleasant French-speaking guide who taught us a lot, Prison Island with its giant tortoises, and finally, swimming with sea turtles—quite touristy, though. An excursion that was planned but shortened at our request—swimming with dolphins—I strongly advise against this excursion, which I believe traumatizes the dolphins. Too many tourists, too many boats. However, this is in no way the fault of our tour operator; we had chosen this service. Finally, the election chaos, which paralyzed the entire population, prevented us from attending the dinner boat trip and disrupted communication. But being in Zanzibar, we were able to return to France without any problems. I would, of course, recommend Zuriafrica Safaris to anyone wishing to go on a beach safari. Dennis's prices are more than affordable, and he is professional, able to resolve unforeseen issues quickly, and always available. Thank you, Dennis, to you and the staff who accompanied us, and thank you for the photographer introduction.
