I had an amazing experience in Tanzania with LOBO safari. Samuel was outstanding tour guide.
Lobo have very reasonable packages that I believe almost every traveler can afford. I highly recommend this company to anyone who truly wants to experience Tanzania safari. Well organized company

Full Service at a Reasonable Price
We just returned from a 6 night / 7 day private safari with Blue Lilac Tours, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish.
Everything ran incredibly smoothly. From the very first email, Edna was responsive, professional, and so easy to work with. She answered all of our questions promptly and thoughtfully, and she helped us craft an itinerary that fit exactly what we were hoping for. The planning process felt collaborative and stress-free.
Once on safari, we were in the very capable hands of our guide and driver, Boniface. He was knowledgeable, warm, and truly exceptional at spotting wildlife. We honestly don’t know how he saw half of what he did! He went the extra mile — literally — to help us track down the Big Five, and his determination and expertise made all the difference. Because we were on a private safari, he was also incredibly flexible and happy to adjust plans based on our interests and requests, which made the experience feel personal and unhurried.
We also felt that the value was outstanding. Before booking, I received a quote from a “luxury” safari company that was nearly twice the price — and interestingly, it included two of the same four lodges that were on our Blue Lilac itinerary. That really put things into perspective. We felt we received an exceptional, high-quality experience without paying an inflated premium simply for a label.
This trip was unforgettable, and so much of that is thanks to the team at Blue Lilac Tours. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a well-organized, customized, and truly special safari experience.

Thanks to the incredible guide Peter, this tour company turned our Kenyan safari dream into an unfor
Choosing Africa Celebrity Tours and Travels for our Kenyan safari was the best decision we made, all thanks to our outstanding guide Peter! Over 5 incredible days in Masai Mara and Amboseli, Peter’s sharp eye and encyclopedic knowledge of wildlife made every game drive thrilling—we saw leopards in trees, giraffes at dawn, and even a cheetah hunt!
He was always attentive to our needs, adjusting the itinerary to fit our interests and making sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times. The company’s communication was prompt, the transport was reliable, and the entire experience was worth every penny.
As shown in the photos: Peter guiding us to a sighting in Lake Nakuru, the stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro he took us to see, and a close-up of a zebra foal . Peter’s passion for Kenya is contagious, and we will absolutely book with Africa Celebrity Tours and Travels again—ask for Peter, and you’ll have the safari of a lifetime!

Trip of a Lifetime
Our Masai Mara safari with Hadven Tours was truly the trip of a lifetime, and George is hands down the best guide you could ask for. He is professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and extremely well connected. Because of him, we were up close to every animal we hoped to see—and more.
George knows the land, the wildlife, and the timing like no one else. He anticipated movements, positioned us perfectly, and made the entire experience seamless and unforgettable. If you’re considering a safari in the Masai Mara, don’t hesitate—Hadven Tours and George are the gold standard.

Flexible guide, Incredible experience, 10/10 recommend!
My family and I spent 8 days with Emile (founder and owner of Lion Safaris) traveling through Kigali, Nyungwe, Volcanoes, and Akagera. I have lived in Rwanda for 5 months, and spent a lot of time finding the best company - and Lion safaris ended up coming up to the number one spot.
First, Emile: He was incredible. Very knowledgeable, personable, funny, and quite honestly the best guide I've encountered (having been on trips in many other countries as well). We always felt safe and informed with him, and his experience as a guide in Akagera and having been in the business for 17 years really paid off.
Second, the trip: Our trip was amazing. Emile booked the best hotels for us, and the process was seamless. The parks are amazing, the experiences are once-in-a-lifetime, and I was really impressed with Rwanda as a whole. While I've lived here for several months, this was my first time traveling extensively outside of Kigali and I cannot express how incredible this place is.
If you are on the fence about booking this tour, reach out to Emile. It was worth every penny.

Next level experience, above and beyond!
My wife and I booked this trip after looking at hundreds of options. This one seemed unique. We were so impressed with every facet of this experience. Our guide Melita was just incredible and his intimate knowledge of Serengeti and the animal patterns gave us an edge on great wildlife encounters. But our biggest surprises were the cultural experiences and the people we were able to interact with. The assistant guide for the cultural experiences, Elias, was wonderful. Giving an authentic look into the tribes that he grew up in. We will never forget the beautiful people we met through him. And of course, the food was excellent and our chef made exquisite meals. Every time we peered at other people’s food, ours always seemed prepared with more care, attention and always felt special and fresh. These memorable experiences will stay with us for a lifetime.

An absolutely perfect trip!
I booked my trip to Tanzania with Dendea a year in advance for this February. They provided an excellent itinerary at a fair price, and managed to secure hotels that are usually very hard to reserve. When the sunset cocktail activity was cancelled, they refunded us without any hassle.
Our guide Walter was fantastic—he could spot so many animals, was caring and kind, and even helped other guides. In the end, we saw all of the Big Five.
Highly recommended!

The tour operator is really on a high level
After exploring Zanzibar, we decided to go on a 2-day safari with the Seregenti Sunrise team. Didas' communication was friendly and fast from the start. He answered all our questions. He arranged for a transfer from the accommodation to the airport in Zanzibar and back. The driver and guide Goti was excellent. Thank you for an unforgettable birthday present, team.

I had a wonderful experience with shanjoy. From the start they were very quick to respond, and were very flexible with the exact itinerary and hotels and dietary requirements. We were pampered throuhgout the trip and the guides provided us with excellent informaiton and a keen eye for spotting animals as we were able to see all the big 5. The car was comfortable with water always provided and the camps and hotels were perfect. We found it to be excellent value for money and the service exceeded all our expectations. Overall we had a perfect trip with shanjoy and would highly recommended to anyone else
