He is friendly, kind, attentive, respectful
Lion King Adventures was an amazing company. They were very responsive with our initial inquiry and sent us the perfect itinerary for the limited time we had for safari. They ensured all of our requests were realized from accommodations to transports. Our guide Meshack was wonderful. He made us feel very safe and was extremely respectful. He made sure we were able to see all the animals, including the big 5. He is an excellent driver on the rougher terrains of the parks. Overall, we had a great experience and recommend Lion King Adventures and Meshack to all who are looking to go on safari.

Best Operator, amazing safari experience!
I am a Mexican, living in Germany.
My experience with Shikwaru was great, I couldn't ask for more or can't think of something that could be improved. From the beginning, when we were planning our trip they were extremely responsive, professional and friendly. All of our questions were answered in advanced (and we had many questions). We didn't have to worry about anything and just enjoy our trip. We were always taken care of from beginning to end.
The trip itself was amazing, our guide was the best. She knows so much about the cities (Joburg, Cape Town) we visited and even more about all the animals we saw during the safari.
Every single game drive (safari drive) was amazing, we found all big 5 and even more amazing animals. Our guide explained so much about every animal, it was an all-round experience.
Comparing prices and talking to friends who have been to safaris I am convinced we got great value for our money, looking back I think this trip was even worth more!
I am so thankful to Shikwaru for this once in a lifetime experience. I can highly recommend them and I am for sure coming back for more!!

Adventure of a Lifetime
Before coming to Kenya, I’ve been contacting several agencies, but must say that communication with Ibrahim was the best. He prepared perfect itinerary and was answering all the questions and requests I’ve been asking. They did take care of us from the very first minute we arrived to Nairobi till the final before departure.
We booked private 4x4 jeep safari, and we have been guided by Johnathan, who is truly the best of the best!!!
From the very first moment he was very friendly, attentive, communicative and we knew already we made the right choice. I can’t express enough how lucky we were while having him as a guide. Johnathan’s driving skills are trully amazing, he also knows everyone

Amazing tour! Everything planned in detail.
I would like to recommend to everyone who is interested in visiting (South) Africa and/or doing safari, to go with Shikwaru Adventures!
I cannot stress enough how well this trip was planned, and we felt comfortable, safe, and as if we were with a good friend. The price is more then reasonable for the experience you will get.
We will be back for another trip in Botswana with our guide, as we loved her so much!

Amazing and Well Versed with Mara !!!
This was the second time that i visited Masai Mara and my previous experience with Namayiana it was a no brainer which operator to choose and like last time it was not a regret, Namayiana team is a bunch of enthusiast people who make sure your wildlife experience is a memory and as i am now like a family to John Mpairo who is the owner of Namayiana, I got the privilege to have Moses as my Guide and Simon as the driver, the 3 days in mara was wonderful, infact got not only glimpse the big 5 but a very relaxed and long sighting specially the Single horn Rhino, we were with this wonderful but very shy and aggressive animal for over 20 min, we almost go the cheetah kill hadn't it been because of the smart zebras, we visited the sand river which lot of people miss but Moses had different plans for us and its was wonderful experience as well. As i am a wildlife lover and enthusiast that 4 days is never fulfilling 2for me but with Namayiana i get the comfort and assurance that i will atleast have memories that i can cherish and tales i can pass on. Waiting for my 3rd visit to Mara and of course it will be with Namayiana. For people who want to see the glimpse of Mara and how well Namayiana can subscribe to my channel and watch the videos.

Amazing Kenya
Nairobi- Chris is a great guide- very well-informed, kind, attentive, courteous and super funny. He provided the transfers and was my guide for going around Nairobi. He always made sure that everything is safe, comfortable and that I would have fun. Thank you Chris for everything.
Masai- I was very fortunate to have Daniel as my guide/driver for this Masai mara trip. He is very attentive, perceptive, great sense of humor and very courteous to everyone. He is very knowledgeable about Kenya, the Masai, Africa, the animals, birds, culture, plants and very well-learned. I learned so much from this trip thanks to Daniel.
I really enjoyed the trip. 100%. I would recommend your agency to friends who might want to visit the Masai Mara in the future.
Excellent Tour and Guide
We had a great time on our 8-day safari. The itinerary was perfect and accommodation was, for the most part, wonderful. Our guide was Saleh and he is fantastic. His driving skills are amazing, he can answer all of our questions and he can spot animals at incredible distances. He is also just a very nice guy and patient with silly customers. Booking the trip was also v straightforward and Pendo always responded to our emails quickly and thoroughly. I recommend this company for your safari.

Kameraz of Africa is customer centric and responded to my questions quickly
The trip was amazing and well organized and I enjoyed it immensely. The tour van picked me up on time, and dropped me at the assigned place. The trip was as described and very charming. Definitely recommending Kameraz of Africa.

This company exceeded all expectations and set the standard for how private tours should be designed
Perfect. That’s all I need to say about this company. But because it was such a fantastic experience I wanna make sure that I see more. From start to finish our experience with this company was superb. We were able to have input on every aspect of the trip with the guidance of the local expert Sandra, who is so kind and so patient and such a pleasure to interact with. She spent so much time helping us examine every minute of the trip and how to best utilize our time and how to best include everything we wanted. I can’t even count up all the hours she spent with us to design this trip. My father has disabilities and my mother is also elderly. She helped us navigate and set up this whole trip in a way that was extremely comfortable and easy for them to still enjoy every part of the trip. I can’t recommend this company enough. All tour companies should strive for what they accomplished.
