Lenchada safaris - forever!!!
The safari went according to the program: masai mara-nakuru-navaysha. This is our second safari, so there is nothing to compare ... We all liked it — the organization, the program and most importantly the safari is our super driver guide Kikitu (a good guide is 100% of your success). Kikitu forever !!! He told a lot of interesting things about animals and plants of Kenya, he saw a lot of animals, he was unlucky only with a leopard, he will have to return for a big pussy. But they saw the black rhino family - mom, dad and baby (which is very rare) Thanks Kikitu!
Lenchada safaris forever! Asanta sana Kikitu. Karibu tena!

Ben was trustworthy, reliable and the best game driver. Ben was punctual in the duration of our trip
My husband and I went to South Africa and we chose Siye Phambile company. Ben, the tour operator was knowledgable, trustworthy and dependable. Ben was punctual from picking us up from the airport and drop us at the end of our trip in South Africa. Ben was the best game driver. Our safari started at 08:00 an and at 2 pm, we had a break from 2:00 pm to 4 pm and we started our game drive from 4 to 6 pm at Kruger National park. In the Kruger National park, Ben was tried to his best to go to dirt roads so we could see the Big Five. Thanks Ben for the wonderful experiences

Great safari experience with Lion King Adventures
As the leader of a group of 10 tourists, mostly first time to Tanzania, I started communication with Lion King 3 months before our journey. Pendo has been always so quick to respond, professional on the safari and patient to all my questions. With her help we designed our itinerary, which proved to be efficient. She also helped us book connection flight to Zanzibar.
Our drivers & guides are Salehe and Gilbert. Both are experienced, knowledgeable, resourceful and industrious. We saw all the animals on our wish list. Though we unexpectedly met with extended raining season that led to muddy road, Salehe avoided quite a few traps, and managed to pull us out of the rest quickly. We also saw him lend a hand to other trapped vehicles. Very good person!
We will come again in the summer and we will use Lion King again too. We highly recommend Lion King with its excellent staff and service. That's the guarantee for a prefect safari in East Africa.

The description does not match the tour; There is no help whatsoever on site ...
Stay away if you want what you've booked!
We had booked the "private tour", "luxury tour". The tour description was written by a four-wheel drive vehicle or minibus, a land cruiser was confirmed to us. Unfortunately, we ended up in a monstrous 22-passenger bus with the side open. We have tried several times to change this on site, but the way this provider deals with the situation is beyond description. After it was explained to us again and again (and always researcher) that it was not the task of the provider to set the correct information, the owner finally came to the conclusion that the size of the vehicle was not relevant anyway.
We found this really disappointing after 2 days of telephone discussion!
Next time we will book directly through the lodge: it really cares, has contact persons on site and provides accommodation and safaris anyway ...

Ultimate nature experience!!
During our tour we went to the Kruger National Park which is such a stunning place!!! Seeing the animals in their natural habitat was absolutely amazing. They were all so peaceful and happy. I can't stress enough how amazing it was driving through the park seeing all the scenery and all the different animals. I almost got to see the whole Big 5...I was only missing the Leopard but next time hopefully I get to see it. Our guide was also very friendly and knowledgeable. He told us so much of the animals I knew nothing about and cleared up some things I thought was true but wasn't about the animals as well. Very thankful he was our guide and took us around to see most of the animals. If you a nature lover then I would definitely recommend coming to the Kruger to see these animals in their natural habit.

It was excellent choice!
We've chosen Kiliholidays btween two other operators. One of the reasons was very quick communication with Mack, he responded to my questions quickly and on very professional manner. The offer has been tailored based on our requests and needs . It was 4 days safari with 3 nights in very nice lodges and one in tented lodge camp, which was exceptional experience as there were no other guests that time:-))
Our guide/driver Thomas was a great guy, funny with great knowledge of fauna and flora. He's been spotting for us animals, we had a chance to see some of them without other cars around what was incredible and very personal experience.
We've spent fantastic time in three national parks, saw lots of animals (no leopard though:-( ), had great fun with Thomas, the lodges were great, food was tasty, there is nothing to complain about.
I highly recommend Kiliholidays, Mack is very responsive, flexible, professional and helpful. If I ever come back to Tanzania for safari I'll do it with them again!
Thank you Mack! Thank you Thomas!

Excellent and reliable
I picked this company because of the good reviews and I wasn't disappointed. The 5 day Safari tour was diverse and interesting, the Lodge was good value and the staff attentive and on time. The communication with Simon the owner was efficient and pleasant. They were happy to accommodate any changes I requested and have a wide variety of attractions available. Their price is fair compared to others. We had a great time on our trips with them.

Very beautiful lodge and nice people
The very exciting moment in our honeymoon trip was safari! I loved it. Only few things needed to improve:
1) very low electricity in lodge (you cant even charge your phone and we had no light 2 days from 3) and
2) last day walk safari was less then 1 hour because we needed to go to ferry at Dar es Salam (but I wrote it when booked tour), I was upset because it was very interesting, and guide was brilliant!
