I loved everything about Madagascar. I have had 4 trips with Explore and feel safe knowing they will look after me. The accommodation was excellent, we stayed in some really luxurious hotels. Our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable. Whatever I asked him to ID (insect, animal, plant) he knew what it was, even giving the Latin name. I recommend this trip and hope to return to visit the north of the Island one day.

Armond was an amazing leader, with local knowledge a good sense of how to engage us all in what was happening, and life in general in Madagascar. We learned so much. The local tour guides at each national park were super helpful and gave us that individual attention to be able to find the amazing animals. Michele our bus driver was incredible - how we didn't feel bounced around on those super rough roads was testament to his skill.
Being an active tour was really good - not so long in the bus each day and a chance to get a walk in really made a difference.
The challenge of the 4-day hike up a mountain was memorable and felt like a real achievement.

This was an excellent Safari. The Tour was as described for style and is not for the faint hearted. We observed all of the animals and birdlife you could wish for. This was a real adventure and both my Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The itinery could do with an update although in the grand scheme of things would not have made much difference.

Our 6-Day Tanzania Prides of Lions Tour with Lights on Africa Safaris was an incredible experience! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. Noel, our guide, was exceptional. His deep knowledge of the parks and the wildlife, especially the lions, made the trip truly unforgettable.
The safari took us through some of the most stunning landscapes in Tanzania, from Tarangire National Park to Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. We had the privilege of seeing multiple prides of lions up close, as well as other magnificent wildlife such as elephants, giraffes, and cheetahs.
The accommodations were comfortable, and the meals were delicious, adding to the overall luxury of the tour. Noel’s expertise made spotting the animals easier, and his enthusiasm for the wildlife was infectious.
This tour is highly recommended for anyone who loves wildlife, especially lions. It’s a well-planned and unforgettable safari experience!
We had an amazing time on our honeymoon safari. Our guides, Noel and Huruma, made sure that every moment was memorable when we were at Arusha, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park, and Serengeti National Park.
We see many amazing animals like lions, elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, etc. Our accommodations were gorgeous, ideal for honeymooners, comfortable suites, a great view, and very tasty food. I recommend this company to all who want to enjoy nature and honeymoon.
