Excellent!
We had a great 6 days safari with Yusuph from Lion King. Everything was in order already from the booking of the safari where we talked to Godwin. Smooth conversation and also quick to reply which was very nice. Yusuph was very polite, informative and respectful. Your wish is always the first priority. Can definitely recommend!

Best Safari! Especially in the off season! Can’t imagine during season
While skeptical about the pricing I wasn’t sure what kind of experience I would get for my first time doing an African safari. Keep in mind we chose the off season cause it was cheaper. Needless to say, I was blown away by the experience. Not only did we have the best tour guide that was LEADING the rest of the tour guides on where to go (talk about being with a pro) but we had the best views of all types of animals. It rained once during the day but it only lasted 20 minutes and back to sunshine and animal watching. We saw every animal you can get imagine (cheetahs, elephants, jaguar, hyenas, giraffes, a black rhino)!!!! We drove around a lot (which is probably the con of going during the off season cause animals were so spread out) but honestly 10/10 I would recommend to any and all! It was a great experience and I wouldn’t have done it with any other group. My only true con was the food. It wasn’t bad at all, it was quite delicious, I just wish there was a bit more variation. I would suggest bringing snacks if you feel you want something else as the road trips are long and the food is usually the same

Brilliant and Excellent
An unforgettable 3-day safari from Nairobi to Masai Mara exceeded expectations! Huge thanks to @mykissafaris and @realafricatravel for flawless planning. Mike, our incredible guide, ensured we spotted the Big 5 and more – leopards, lions, zebras, elephants, antelopes, giraffes, rhino. Lucky, yes, but also Mike's talent! Accommodating and detailed, they flawlessly executed the plan. Shoutout to Tim for bridging Kenya and US expectations seamlessly. Highly recommend for an amazing trip!

Recommendation!
The organization (airport transfers, trips between the parks, overnight stays, meals,…) was perfect.
The chef (Tito) cooked for us every day early morning, lunch and evening and it was delicious! (Also very suitable for vegetarians)
Our tour guide (Freddy) was super nice, his English was perfect and easy to understand and he could tell and explain a lot.
In summary, I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get to know the animals and nature in Tanzania!

Great and attentive organization
Victor and all the staff I dealt with, especially my driver guide Alex, are very accommodating and efficient. They paid attention to my suggestions and were quick to deal with some changes that were necessary. I'd book with them again without a doubt.

Thom was great, very acknowledged,kind and helpful with our needs.
We had beautiful days in the deep nature, with beautiful wild animals.

Our second experience with Jeremiah and our guide Shirima… Just as perfect as the first time!
After a wonderful 11 days safari experience last year followed by few days of relaxation in Zanzibar, we decided to go back to Tanzania and its magnificent parks, one of our favorite place on earth, to enjoy it again while our ageing bodies still can take it!
We came with a little different attitude and of course knowing better what to expect!
Jerry and Shirima were just incredible to understand our view and desires.
If it is possible count on Jerry to make it happen! If it is not, he will explain in details why and will offer an alternative that you would not have taught of and makes perfect sense.
We have dietary allergies and Jerry made sure that all our lodges offered us safe and delicious meals even for the lunch boxes.
As for Shirima, he was just as perfect as last year!
He knows the enthusiasm of Robbert for wild life photography in the parks but that we also appreciate the littles details nature is offering us and he would stop every time he knew a scene would touch us or every time we would say STOP!
A very nice gesture: Knowing that we travel hand luggage only, Shirima had a stabilization bag for the camera made to use in the jeep. Thank you again!
After a great (11 days again) safari we went this time to little Chole Island next to Mafia Island. Jerry organized everything for us; Air transportation from the Serengeti to Mafia, to Dar Es Salem, ground transportation between Mafia & Chole and the booking of our treehouse. Flawless!
Jerry & Shirima thank you for an unforgettable trip and all we hope for is to go back a third time using your services again.

Great Safari
The Savannah safari guide was truly exceptional. His expertise and passion for wildlife greatly enriched the experience. He demonstrated a comprehensive knowledge of the animals, plants and ecosystems we encountered, making the trip both educational and exciting. His ability to spot the animals in the dark using only a flashlight demonstrated his keen observation skills and ensured we never missed a remarkable moment. Additionally, the safari guide was friendly, approachable and always willing to answer questions, creating a welcoming atmosphere throughout the tour. Thanks for the great safari.

Skilled and fun team puts you in best possible position for wildlife photography
Simon and his team at E-Trip Africa made my photo safari trip an epic adventure. I was traveling with a small group of photographers and Simon was hired to make everything smooth from the moment I landed in Nairobi and the moment I left two weeks later. I didn't know when he picked me up at the airport what I would be going home with. It turned out to be a lot, including:
*Amazing photos of the Big 5-lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos and rhinos. On top of that we got photos of giraffes, a serval, cheetahs, hippos, warthogs, zebras, hyenas, antelopes of all types and a gazillion different birds (owls, eagles, herons, flamingos, rollers, weavers, etc).
*A deeper view of Kenyan daily life and culture
*A deep appreciation for the food-especially the fresh fruits and vegetables. Like nothing I had experienced before.
*Memories of bright red, purple and pink skies at sunrise and sunset
*A Kenyan music playlist put together with input from all of the guides
*A moment I will never forget-being surrounded by an elephant herd at sunset right in front of Mt. Kilimanjaro
There are too many moments to review. Simon and his team worked to create these moments for us. They did it with skill, humor, teamwork and camaraderie. It was truly an epic adventure! I would go on safari with them again and again.

Custom package of Mabamba Swamp tour, Equator, Rhino Sanctuary & Murchison Falls
Honestly, this was one of the best trips I have ever taken in my life. The Mabamba swamp tour was great and relaxing. We saw all kinds of wild life including the shoebill. The trip to the equator on the boat was great. The weather was perfect and Mo was a very friendly boat Captain and had interesting information about the Lake and surrounding area. It was a relaxing end to a first day, which was preceded by a lot of travel and little sleep. The second day had the game drive, which was a lot of fun and had some beautiful sights to see. The trip on the Nile was great for viewing wildlife and seeing the falls from the bottom. It would have been better to be able to get a little closer but it is understandable as the current from the falls is to strong and overpowers the boat. The boat was short in seating so many sat on the engine covers (not a deal breaker unless you have physical issues). Outside of the boat being overbooked, this was a good experience. Still saw so much wildlife during the ride and could move around the boat to see everything. The stay at the parkland lodge was nice and the morning game drive found even more close encounters with the larger wildlife there. The top of the falls had some of the most beautiful views and I would have stayed there for hours longer if we did not have other places to go. Lastly, the rhino sanctuary was incredible. Walking amongst these giant white rhinos was a unique experience, and helps you appreciate these magnificent animals. Our guide, Eddie, was outstanding. He answered all our questions and got us where we needed to be. He took care of all the busy work and let us enjoy the trip, which was exactly what we were looking for. We have nothing but positive reviews about the experience, and I have told everyone already asking us about the trip as such. I plan to come back again one day and experience more of the Pearl of Africa because it is such majestic country. Thank you for being amazing hosts.
The pictures do not do it justice. It is not the same as looking at these animals up close and personal or seeing the falls for yourself and feeling the spray from the rocks cool you as you enjoy the scene.
