Bad organization
The experience with this agency was really bad since the first time. The agency confirmed all and in the day before in afternoon change all (destinations and the group) when we had all bought... We had to find a solution paying more 400$ to had a private safari (the only form to went to destinations since first day confirmed). When we arrived they required the payment and we gave the credit card but they wanted in cash... We had to go in the bank, lost 3 hours and paid taxes and exchanges rates. When I asked the employee why she didn't told us about the payment, she answered:"you didn't asked"!!! The employee sent a picture of the tent with a bed and when we arrived we had to pick up the tent and the bed didn't exist. Was terrible... Don't buy anything here!!

Friendly efficient safe and affordable 3D Mara + Nakuru
The drivers were safe and attentionate. Camp in the Mara was rustic but very pleasant. Chatting by the fire camp with the staff and visitors was a nice experience. Electricity is only available for a few hours , so make sure you come prepared. During the safari, had a maximum of 7 in the 9-seater which was confortable. The guide did every effort to make our safari a success. Staying 3 nights is not necessary except if you are there during the migration season and want to increase your chance of seeing the river crossing. Lake Nakuru is the perfect park to combine with Mara. The flaMingos and the rhinos are many there and the sight is stunning. I stayed at Matfam hotel which was pleasant as well.

A very memorable safari trip. Our guides are very experienced, keep us safe.
The service is thoughtful, attentive and very satisfactory. Joseph solved many problems and difficulties for us, carefully arranged the routes and procedures for us, and saved us a lot of money! We were very lucky to meet Joseph and his guide on this trip, so we had a very memorable safari trip

Great experience from booking to actual tour. Communication was quick and clear. The places suggested were excellent.
Richard, our guide, was always punctual and had good knowledge about the area and animals. He went out of his way to show us all the sights.
Highly recommended to book a tour with this company!

Dream safari!!!
From beginning to end our Safari was absolutely fantastic! Our driver and guide, George, was super friendly and knowledgeable and he was a great fit for me and my husband’s trip. We did a private safari which was perfect for us. He let us choose what we want to do and where we wanted to go and how long we wanted to spend. Everything was perfectly arranged from the food the accommodations with good communication.

Excellent tour of Mikumi and Udzungwa National Parks
Excellent communications and flexibility in arranging transport and a tour to meet our time availability and plans. Lovely accommodation near the park. A fantastic couple of days in Mikumi - Otto is very knowledgeable and seemed to find all the animals we could wish for. Also arranged a guide up the gorgeous Udzungwa mountains to see the impressive falls. Would certainly recommend Otto to everyone.

Friendly and Professional - Highly Recommended
Our experience with Lion King was everything we could ask for. The operations were smoothly managed so that we could focus on the wonderful wildlife. Our guide Gilbert was friendly and professional, and not only acted the dutiful host and driver, but also enriched our safari by taking us to the right places and pointing out every animal and bird in his guidebook.
The rest of the Lion King team, especially James in Arusha, went out of their way to meet our every request. Highly recommend this group for anyone looking to book a safari in the region.

Very interesting city tour of Dar es Salaam
We are a swedish couple who 19/7 attended a day-tour of Dar es Salaam. Our guide Patrick is very knowledgable about all things Tanzanian. The tour let us experience the more "common" sights like the Fishmarket and Village-museum but also took us outside of the beaten path to other areas and neighborhoods around town . That gave us a rather unique cultural experience. It was obvious that our guide went to great lengths to make us experience a taste of the "real" Dar es Salaam.
On comparison with other companies this full-day-tour was delivered at a very good price and offered excellent value for money.
All in all we can recommend Nodven Tour with Patrick as a guide as a very entertaingi and enlightening way to spend a day in Dar es Salaam
