STOP RIGHT HERE - PERFECT EXPERIENCE
5/5

STOP RIGHT HERE. Lion King Adventures was amazing. We were worried because we couldn't tell one supplier from another, and Lion King was affordable, making us somewhat suspicious. We were reassured as soon as we started working with them. They were very prompt with replies, and seemed to know the terrain very well. When I emailed them, I usually got a response back within hours, if not minutes. Pendo was super helpful. The owners were available by phone whenever needed. They were accurate and precise. Their prices were great compared to what the resort wanted to charge for game drives. On the trip, everything went extremely well. They were incredibly well organized. We did 4 days of Safari in Serengeti and Manyara parks, and another four day hike from Empakai Crater to Ol Donyo Langai, with a chef, a Masai guide, and two people to help transport the supplies by donkey. We had asked for something unique with a multi-day trek, and they came through. Everything went super smoothly. We felt safe. They were trustworthy.
Our guide, Ozzie was perfect- way more than we could have imagined. He was pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. More than this, he was organized, reliable, and extremely hard working. We thought we'd only be able to do a few hours in the morning and a few hours in the afternoon of game driving, like hotels had offered. No way. We were out by 8 am and did 9 to 10 hour game drives, at his offering! He was so good at spotting the animals, and we learned so much about each of them. He was very familiar with the parks, and very persistent at finding wildlife. We had a great time with picnic lunches in the Serengeti plains. We always had cold beverages at the ready. The vehicle was in great condition. We could not have been happier. Highly recommend asking for Ozzie.
Everything went according to plan for our 4 day hike. Yusuph was a great chef- always paying attention to our specific (vegan) dietary needs, very organized, and had everything under control, even when we got washed out by the rain one day. His staff were also very pleasant and hard working, doing their best to corral the donkeys to cooperate. Our guide, Alexi, was very good. He knew all the locals in the Masai villages we passed. The experience was way more authentic compared to villages you go through at tourist stops. The tents and equipment (including our own fresh full sized pillows) were in fine condition.
All in all, we had an adventure of a lifetime and would definitely recommend Lion King Adventures.

Incredible experience!
5/5

This Safari was definitely the highlight of my two months travelling around Europe and Africa. I booked 2 nights before on a Sunday and Byson was extremely helpful in helping organising at such short notice. Lucas (the guide) was unreal. He saw animals that were impossible to see and was able to answer all the questions I was constantly firing at him about them. He was also a fantastic energy to have in the car. I would highly highly recommend this tour!

5/5

Very good communication, good planning.We have booked a 3 days safari to Mikumi National park. Everything went smoothly, we had a very pro guide, a very capable 4x4 Toyota Landcruiser and we were able to explore the most remoted parts of the park.It was a stunning experience, we saw most of the major wild animals from Africa, an unforgetable experience! Thank you Rashid!

The most memorable trip: Kilimanjaro climb & Safari
5/5

I just climbed Kilimanjaro with the Almighty Kilimanjaro team! From the first minute to the last, they exceeded all of my expectations. Fredy , Tom, Izack, Joel and the rest of the wonderful local guides, cooks, and porters made sure our group was taken care of the entire way. Our safety while acclimatizing was checked continuously and at regular intervals, and when some of us struggled, appropriate attention was received right away. In addition, the knowledgeable guides taught us about the flora, fauna, terrain, and local culture.

The porters hauled our gear, food, water, and other group supplies, and the cooks made sure that were always well fed, hydrated, and healthy. On summit night, we were serenaded under the stars and a crescent moon. I can't thank the team enough for making this all possible.

My brother also trekked with Almighty Kilimanjaro a few years ago and it was also an unforgettable adventure!

I would go with them anywhere and I highly recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro to anyone interested in the outdoors, safari adventure, and exploration!

Completely blew my expectations out of the water!
5/5

My partner and I could not speak more highly of the Katona Tour and Travel company! We originally contacted them for a single day gorilla trek experience, but they ended up helping us organize a full 4 days in Rwanda! The staff and driver were so accommodating, friendly, quick to respond, and knowledgeable about the area. We spent the first day gorilla trekking, then drove south to Lake Kivu for a day of biking, and then continued down to Nyungwe National park for some amazing nature hikes and tea plantation tour. The accommodations they selected for us were some of the best stays of our lives! It was so effortless, as everything from meals to activites was organized for us we were able to relax and enjoy beautiful Rwanda. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for an adventure of a lifetime - whether you already have an itinerary in mind or you would like them to sculpt one for you.

Very professional, very informative, and includes cultural tours of Kenya
5/5

Communication was excellent, knowledge extreme, and they helped design a safari package specific to what I wanted, which made the experience all that more enjoyable. I would highly recommend Isaac and his team as a safari company, as most of the major tour companies do not give you the personal services offered by Royal Private Safaris. I would not hesitate to book again with them, and found my experience was even better than expected. Very knowledgeable about what is good to go to at specific times of the year, and also includes cultural tours of schools in the slum of Nairobi as well as visits to villages in the country side as well as stops at Maasai and Samburu Villages which is a once in a lifetime experience. Do yourself a favor and book with Royal Private Safari.
