Review of a 7-day private Tanzania safari covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Maasai culture, and sunset walks.
“I would highly recommend Lion Ling Safari, especially tour guide Shafino. He is hands down the most experienced and well versed guide I have ever met. Knows everything about the animals, plants and birds and where to see all of the native species! Takes his time to answer all your questions with detailed information. Can’t wait to come back!”
Sail from Nungwi on a traditional dhow for sunset views, tropical fruit, local drumming, dancing, and an optional swim for $19.

Review of a 3-day Mikumi safari from Zanzibar, with ferry, train, Maasai village, full-day game drive, guides, lodging, and value advice.
“Es war wahnsinnig toll, das Massai Dorf war sehr beeindruckend, so toll hatte ich es mir nicht vorgestellt. Auf unsere Safari hat uns Stephane alles super und verständlich in guten English erklärt. Der Transport mit dem Auto, dann zur Fähre und dann mit dem Zug, ging zwar etwas länger, dadurch hat man aber auch sehr viel gesehen, mitten im Trubel, echt Wahnsinn. Das einzige was ich anmerken muss, man muss sehr lange auf Essen verzichten, besser etwas mitnehmen. Unser Guide Tay, der von Anfang an bis Ende dabei war, war Gold wert. Er hat es besser nicht machen können, spricht auch ganz gut deutsch. Alles in allem super”
Pick a park, a summit or a stretch of reef.
