More than just a tour
We felt so lucky to have discovered Alex of Amatsiko Tours, who curated our two weeks itinerary for Uganda. Our hope of gaining insights into community life and culture, in addition to the magnet of gorilla and chimpanzee trekking, was far exceeded with the experiences we had. Welcomed by many people in out of the way places, Alex’s connections with community are very evident. Our visit to Uganda was made very special by Amatsiko Tours - wonderful accommodation, a huge variety of activities including walking safaris, game drives, tribal and rural visits and more. We were treated like treasured family wherever we went. If it’s an authentic, immersive experience you want in Uganda, do contact Amatsiko and explore their many options.

We got to see the Big 5
We recently completed an incredible Tanzania safari arranged through Lion King Adventures, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish.
The accommodations were outstanding. Both Nyota Rift Valley and Nyota Luxury Camp were beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and offered stunning views that made the experience even more memorable. The staff at both properties were welcoming and attentive, making us feel at home throughout our stay.
A special thank you goes to our guide and driver, Enock Hubert. His knowledge of the wildlife, local culture, and the national parks was exceptional. He worked tirelessly to ensure we had the best safari experience possible, and his keen eye helped us spot countless animals we would have otherwise missed. He provided binoculars for us to see animals in the distance. We were able to see all five animals of the African Big 5.
From the seamless planning and communication to the amazing accommodations and outstanding guiding, Lion King Adventures delivered a first-class experience!

Absolutely recommendable
We spent a 3 days game drive together with Gerald.
He is very friendly and helpful! He has a real great knowledge of the animals and the nature and he is very openminded for all our questions! And by the way he is a really good driver and we always felt safe! The accommodations were nice and very clean and all the food was excellent. For us the gamedrive was acwonderful experience! Thanks to Gerald and Suricata Safaris

Average operator
Our safari experience was absolutely wonderful. I will never forget the time we spent with our fantastic guide Charles. The food and accommodation both lived up to our expectations perfectly.
Unfortunately, our stay in Zanzibar was a terrible letdown. Tour manager Nuhu was often hard to communicate with. We even had to argue over lunch and dinner meals that were supposed to be covered by our travel package. If you book trips with this operator, make sure you get written confirmation of every included detail, especially dining arrangements.
On top of that, our Zanzibar guide Mussa was extremely unreliable. He kept taking personal phone calls while behind the wheel, which felt very unsafe.

Unforgettable Safari Adventure
We recently booked a two-week private safari and beach package with African Big Cats, and the entire experience was flawless. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, allowing us to completely relax without worrying about any logistics.
Communication with Naomi and Emanuel was seamless. Naomi was very responsive and helped answer all our questions throughout the trip. She even went out of her way to arrange activities for us at the very end of our journey when we realized we had extra time before our flight home due to our own scheduling oversight.
A special shoutout goes to our safari guide, Samuel, who truly made our trip unforgettable. He went above and beyond to share the incredible nature and wildlife of Tanzania with us. He quickly understood our vibe and was completely flexible whenever necessary. Furthermore, Samuel has what can only be described as 'eagle eyes.' He would gently stop the jeep and point out a leopard camouflaged on a distant branch or a lioness hidden in the tall grass, sightings we would have missed in a heartbeat. He didn't just show us the animals; he explained their behavior, their role in the ecosystem, and shared fascinating facts that brought the entire landscape to life. Thank you Samuel!
This was truly a trip of a lifetime.
We highly recommend African Big Cats to anyone planning a visit to Tanzania!

Wonderful
We had an amazing safari experience visiting Okokoro Park and Serval Park in Tanzania. The entire trip was well organized, enjoyable, and exceeded our expectations.
Our guides were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They shared fascinating information about the wildlife, local environment, and conservation efforts, making the experience both educational and memorable. Most importantly, they prioritized our safety and security throughout the journey, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the adventure.
The parks offered incredible opportunities to see and interact with nature, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. We highly recommend Safari Bookings with Davis Peter for your trip to Okokoro Park and Serval Park for anyone visiting Tanzania and looking for a unique and unforgettable wildlife experience.

Had a great time!
I had a wonderful time!
Everything was well managed, I received notifications about my next schedule before even I ask.
All staff were very nice and friendly, on time in all occasions. Frank is intelligent and knowledgeable. Nuhu, he has knowledge and he does all his effort for his guests. But very natural and friendly😊 he shared his experience which was very nice. he was The best safari guide ever 😃
The downside were the lack of wifi, no coffee in the morning, only tea. One choice of beer, only alcohol they have was beer.
Above all, I think the friendliness of the staff is what makes the lodge so great 😊
Provides a good service
Great experience
We saw the Big 5 and more
Our guide was very informative
We would highly recommend a Safari in Tanzania
Simply the Best
We spent 2 weeks travelling around Uganda with Amatsiko Tours (Alex) and we could not have wished for a better experience. The itinerary covered everything from visiting the gorillas, chimps game drives, visiting Communities and learning about Ugandan Culture.. all fascinating and educational. Alex took exceptional care of us.. I thoroughly recommend Amatsiko Tours to anyone who wants to experience Uganda
