Experiência maravilhosa
5/5

My mother and I booked a 5 nights-4 days safari with Lion King Adventures with this itinerary: Lake Manyara (1 day, 1 night), Serengeti (2 days, 2 nights), Ngorongoro (1 day, 1 night) and Mt Kilimanjaro (1 day). Everything was easily arranged with owners James (via WhatsApp Messenger) and Anna (via e-mail). The price, in my opinion, was excellent, even though it was high season (August). By negotiating directly with them, they offered me a good discount, and also accepted credit card. Our safari experience was excellent. The vehicle provided (a Toyota Land Cruiser with refrigerator for drinks, like juice, water or local beer) and the food choices for lunch (normal or vegetarian) were outstanding. Also, our driver/ranger Oswald (also known as Ozzy) was a really nice guy, always smiling and having a positive attitude towards everything. He found all the animals we wanted to see and had really good control of the car (the roads are very bad, so the driver is tested at all times). We easily spotted the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino) and had lots of fun with Ozzy’s jokes. By the way, having a fun and prepared driver is essential, as you’ll be spending a lot of time with him/her on the course of the days. That’s why I recommend that if you’re planning on booking a safari with Lion King, ask for Ozzy to be your driver. I guarantee you won’t regret it! During our safari, there was only one slight problem with our hotel in Arusha, but this problem was quickly solved after I contacted James by WhatsApp – he is always ready to help you if you need. To sum it up: if you’re looking for a good safari experience in northern Tanzania, go with Lion King Adventures.

Gorilla Trekking- My Dream Trip
5/5

Gorilla trekking coupled with time in the Serengeti- a dream trip! The wildlife along with wonderful guides- not to mention the good food & South African wine were splendid! The tented camps in the Serengeti set the scene for truly being away from the stress of life. The mountains of Rwanda- the home of the mountain gorillas- completed the trip. The Five Volcanoes Lodge was the perfect setting for "base camp". Our guides got us to the the areas of the very famous families of gorillas. I had the time of my life on this trip. Thanks to "Journeys Discovering Africa Limited" for helping me fulfill this crazy dream!

Great safari experience
5/5

This 3 days and 2 nights tour in the Maasai Mara was such a great trip. From the planning to the entire experience Peter went above and beyond to make sure this was an enjoyable Safari.

Though faced with some unforeseeable delays once on site (weather conditions not allowing the arrival day afternoon game drive, vehicle breakdown...) our guide and driver John also went above and beyond to make sure that we had an excellent trip. We got our BIG 5 within a few hours (we were lucky with that one) and got to see so much more of the wildlife in the Mara along with a very interesting visit in a Masai village.

Overall great experience. Hats off to to Peter and the team at Africa Flash Mc Tours

Beautiful white beaches and clear blue sky with fluffy white clouds.
4/5

We have just returned from the trip of a lifetime! Thanks to this travel company and our agent, our custom-designed 13 day tour of Uganda was perfect. We easily followed the instructions in our travel packet, our tickets and vouchers were organized and accepted everywhere, every guide and driver was on time and extremely knowledgeable, and the recommended hotels and restaurants met our very high expectations. It’s worth noting, also, that just mentioning our travel company, or simply the name of our agent, seemed to make our providers stand up straighter and work a little harderWe thank this company and out agent for everything. We will not hesitate to recommend this travel company to anyone who wishes to travel to Uganda

Personalized & Customized!
5/5

Joe and Asili Explorer is a local safari operator with a vast knowledge of all the national parks in Tanzania - particularly the Serengeti.

Asili has one car, which means that you will have a very private, personalized, and customized tour that suits exactly the kind of safari you and your loved ones or friends want. When you book with Asili, you can be assured that you're getting one-on-one attention to detail.

While inside the park, we observed other tours where the cars were full of random samplings of people. Can you imagine having to share such an expensive vacation with strangers who have different priorities for what they want to do/see? It would be very stressful and not as amazing.

What you get with Asili is a local guide and driver who has developed and maintained personal relationships with the various lodges, tented camps, park staff, and restaurateurs all over the country of Tanzania. If you choose Tanzania for your safari, you should choose Asili.

Joe is very friendly, knowledgeable, and prepared for multiple contingencies. He comes prepared with lots of water, medicine, and even provides coffee and wine options for those interested - he brings his own wine glasses and coffee mugs. His business is a family business, and at the end of the tour, my wife and I were invited over to his home to share a meal with his lovely wife and children. That's the kind of experience you'll get with Asili: personal, customized, caring, friendly.

You can't go wrong (unless you choose a different tour company).
