Very good operator! You can trust!
We went for a 3 days / 2 nights Safaris in the Mara at Basecamp Explorer. Beacon Safaris have planned all the trip for us! We had a great experience with everything (accommodation, meals, etc.) The driver (Antony) is Excellent! He was explaining us a lot about the animals, the Mara, The Maasai people, etc. We really appreciated that he took time to explain us a lot of things during the Safaris!

Amazing, friendly, knowledgeable
After visiting the Mountain Gorillas on another tour, we knew there was more
to see of Rwanda. We reviewed several tour operators and selected Lush Safaris. We were not disappointed. We spent additional 4 days seeing more of Rwanda. The tour guide and driver were knowledgeable, friendly and flexible. It was a great addition to the gorilla adventure.

Unforgettable time in Nairobi with Aardwolf..
Aardwolf Africa took us on a safari from Nairobi to Masai Mara. We left our hotel early in the morning and first stop was at the Giraffe Center which was about 30 min drive. This was a nice place to visit in the morning. Then we drove to Masai Mara, the place I wanted to visit. We spent 3 days camping in the Mara. The camping was amazing and the staff was very friendly. We were picked up and dropped off in the Nairobi center. The accommodation was very basic but it was clean. The food was buffet style and it was good. The game driver was great. We saw a lot of animals including leopards. The trip was great.

Frena Adventure was more than a professional level; Our guide Apollo felt more like a family.
We landed at Entebbe, Uganda later than the plan originally had, but Apollo and Abraham tried to fit all the activities during the stay, and actually provided us all the itinerary and schedules we were supposed to have.
Apollo was perfect in terms of speaking English. We had no problems sharing our thoughts on wonderful nature of Uganda and sometimes talk about our lives in Korea and Uganda. We shared so much things together as human-beings not as tourists and a guide.
Gorilla trekking was worth that money, and so did Chimpanzee trekking. We saw marvelous forest and very different kinds of animals dwelling harmonious in one place.
When passing through the Kazinga Channel, hundreds of hippos and alligators, even a pack of elephants welcomed us. Aside from eating packed lunch from the lodge, we spoke with Apollo that we want to try very local cuisine, and so we did.
The most memorable moment is not one, but every single moment was precious and our family was living with uncountable happiness all time.
I thank you very much Apollo, and dear Frena Adventures for supporting our first tour at Africa. Uganda will stay in our heart forever.

Very professional and pro-active organisation
6 day safari with every day a new highlight
After visiting a few other African countries it was now time for Tanzania. And it did not disappoint, the diversity and volumes of animals was mindblowing. We were even very lucky to experience the Great Migration. And the whole experience was made even more special because of the very personal and professional approach of the whole trip by Easy Travel. They looked after everything from start to finish (Thank you Voice from the Arusha office) But we would really like to give a very special mention to Harry, our guide and driver! Not only is he a very safe driver, but also an excellent spotter who would go the extra mile to give us the opportunity to see something special (like our first cheetah) Besides all the wildllife, we also had a great time on a personal level. We talked about our families, our countries and shared jokes. So, thank you Harry and we will be your ambassador from now on!

Unforgettable vacation
We choose African Big Cats Safaris because they offered a complete flexible program (7 days) in the recommended area to visit for the period of my vacation (January).
And we were right with this choice. Because it was difficult to book the flights in short term, they were very flexible with the program, and they recommended and arranged for me some good modifications to comply with my requirements.
The safari experience was unique. We visited Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti, Tarangire Park, Ndutu area and Ngorongoro Park. They were parks with dream trails, and we had a lot of time to enjoy what we have seen.
Our guide, Lovoi (a person very in love with the savanna), gave us a lot of explanations during the safari regarding the animals and now we have a much better understanding of the ecosystem in the national parks of Tanzania. He showed us a lot of animals (from small marmots until the big animals). Without him, we wouldn’t have been able to find all the animals in the savanna or in the bushes.
We saw a lot of from the big five (as promised) and, also, a big number of other animals (tens of thousands of antelopes, zebras, giraffes, flamingos…). Because it was the calving period, we also saw a lot of babies, even some no older than one day walking with the adults in endless rows of animals.
We made a lot of photos and videos every day because during the games we saw always something new.
The accommodation and food were above my expectations, and everything was perfect organized. Also, the persons in the lodges and camps were willingly to help us.
I can say that this was one of my best vacations in my life.
Thank you Lovoi.
Thank you ABCS.

Best trip we have ever had!
We (husband/wife) just finished a 4-day safari with Lion King Adventures (Feb4-7). It was without a doubt the best vacation we have ever had. We cannot recommend this company and our guide Emil enough. The pre-tour communication, itinerary, spacious vehicle, lodging and most importantly our guide were all phenomenal! Emil was such a wealth of information, an expert driver/scouter and such a genuine person who was an absolute joy to be with. He really made the trip unforgettable.
We booked the midrange package and the accommodations exceeded our expectations. The "tent" in the Serengeti was more luxurious than most hotels and it was a highlight waking up surrounded by wildlife. We saw the Big 5 on countless occasions along with all the other wildlife, beautiful scenery, Masai people and Tanzanian culture which was just as spectacular.
If you are considering booking with Lion King Adventures, do not hesitate and make sure to request Emil!
Parks visited: Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, Lake Manyara

Great Safari with experienced guide
After Kenia and Namibia this was our third safari which we did as a family. Luckily, we got a very experienced and sympathetic guide (Donatus) who made this journey unforgettable for us. Philemon was flexible enough to adjust the safari based on our needs and wishes and helped us work out a wonderful 10-days route throughout the Northern part of Tanzania. I would recommend this company to anyone wanting to see as much of the country, it's people and animals as possible. All our accomodations worked out according to our prior plan and we're wonderful. Thanks a lot to Donatus, who spent these 10 days with us and let us make these safari so memorable to us! And thanks to Philemon for staying flexible and meeting our needs.
