Reviews of Lekobe Adventures & Safaris

Amazing 4-Day by Safari—Safe, Seamless, and Spectacular

We had an incredible 4-day, 3-night safari with LeKobe’s Adventures & Safaris. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. Our airport pick-up was on time and seamless, which set the tone for the entire trip. The accommodations were excellent. Very comfortable, clean, and in beautiful settings. The food throughout the safari was delicious. Our safari Land Cruiser was extremely comfortable and equipped with everything we could possibly need. A special thank you to our guide, Philip. He was absolutely amazing. Very knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about wildlife. Thanks to him, we were able to see the Big Five and so many other animals up close. He made the experience unforgettable. I traveled with two girlfriends, and we felt completely safe the entire time, even while in the heart of the Serengeti. This trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I can’t recommend LeKobe’s Adventures & Safaris enough!

10/10 absolutly worth it!

I have traveled to a lot of places with many tour guides but none is as excellent as Abel with Le Kobe Adventures & Safaris ! Abel had eyes like a hawk when finding the wildlife and a spectacular scenes of their movements before they happened getting us in position for some amazing experiences! It wouldn’t have been the same with anyone else..

Exceptional Experience!

Our guide Raymond and the Le Kobe Adventures team gave us an extraordinary all-inclusive safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. From start to finish, every aspect of the trip exceeded our expectations. Right from the beginning, the company impressed me with their prompt communication and planning. They provided a cool website and a pdf with all the details of the trip and were flexible to adapt it to our needs. The choice of accommodation was simply outstanding. We stayed at Serena Lodges in both locations. These lodges offer breathtaking views, comfortable facilities and great service. I can't rave enough about the expertise and passion of our safari guide, James. He was very knowledgeable of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and tapped into his network of guides to quickly find the animals we wanted to see. He also shared great details about the animals and their living environment. We can't wait to be back!

Perfect Family Safari Experience

My family and I have enjoyed every single minute of the Safari experience and can’t express in words how grateful we are to you and your wonderful team, specially David and Frankie. A golden tandem (guide/driver) who are extremely professional, attentive and have made of our first Safari adventure an unforgettable experience. Milele, asante sana

Knowledgeable and very kind

My family and I had a fantastic awesome great super wonderful time for our first safari. Everything was and well organized! Don't even get me started on reviewing our guide!!! He was AWESOME and so kind. His name is James for reference and I can highly recommend him!!! When it comes to choosing a safari company, I am well aware that the choice is tremendous, however I cannot stress enough the seriousness and the professionalism of Le Kobe Adventures & Safaris .

A safari with the right and best experiences. Perfect for couples, families or alone. Le Kobe makes arrangements for exactly what you want. Pleasant, attentive and caring even after the experience has been completed.

An Unforgettable Safari with LE KOBE ADVENTURES – Special Thanks to Boss Mathayo and Our Top Guide P

Our safari in Tanzania with LE KOBE ADVENTURES was nothing short of extraordinary — an experience we will treasure for the rest of our lives. From the very beginning, everything was flawlessly arranged by Mathayo, the boss of LE KOBE ADVENTURES. His professionalism, attention to detail, and personal involvement made the entire trip smooth, comfortable, and deeply enjoyable. It’s clear that Mathayo is passionate about delivering authentic, high-quality safari experiences — and he absolutely delivered. A huge part of what made this journey so special was Phillip – our top guide. His deep knowledge of the land and wildlife, his sharp eye, and his calm, friendly presence made every game drive unforgettable. Phillip seemed to spot animals before anyone else — sometimes even before we knew where to look! He also took time to explain animal behaviors, conservation efforts, and the unique ecosystems of each region we explored. Thanks to Phillip’s expertise, we were incredibly lucky to see the legendary Big Five — a true highlight of the trip. For those unfamiliar, the Big Five refers to five of Africa’s most iconic and sought-after animals: • Lion – the king of the savannah, always thrilling to see in the wild • Elephant – majestic, intelligent, and deeply social animals • Leopard – elusive and elegant; we were fortunate to spot one resting in a tree • Buffalo – powerful and unpredictable, often seen in large herds • Rhinoceros – increasingly rare and a powerful symbol of conservation Seeing all five in their natural habitats was a dream come true, and something we will never forget. We explored the world-famous Serengeti National Park and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, where every landscape felt like a scene from a nature film. From dramatic crater views to golden savannahs, the beauty was endless. Another wonderful and unexpected highlight was discovering Phillip’s passion for music. During our time together, we had the pleasure of listening to some of his original songs — and it made the experience even more special. His music added a personal, heartfelt touch to our journey, and we’re truly glad he shared that part of himself with us. It reminded us that travel is not just about places, but also about the people you meet along the way. The lodges and camps arranged by LE KOBE were perfectly selected — comfortable, scenic, and full of charm. The hospitality was warm, the food delicious, and the locations ideal for early morning and evening game drives. This wasn’t just a holiday — it was a life-enriching adventure. If you're planning a safari in Tanzania, we can’t recommend LE KOBE ADVENTURES highly enough. With Boss Mathayo’s expert organization and Phillip’s outstanding guiding (and musical talent!), you are guaranteed a safari that goes far beyond your expectations. Take care Mathayo & Phillip Boštjan and the family - Slovenia Koper

Very caring and gave it all for our success in all areas from dust to dawn

Only very positive experiences from planning and booking, to transer and accomodation, to food and safari itself. Tour guide Philipo made his best effort in every situation to make sure we were OK and that we had a fantastic safari experience. We saw the big 5, and many more animals thanks to his efforts and willingness to make it happen. We are already looking forward to our next adventure with Philipo and Lekobe.

Exceptional, above and beyond service from the outset and throughout

I cannot recommend Lekobe Adventures enough! From our very first enquiry to the final moments of our trip, everything was planned to absolute perfection. Jessica was simply outstanding in every respect and she tailored our itinerary to suit our needs, including seamless flights from Zanzibar to Arusha. Our adventure began with Day 1 in Tarangire National Park, followed by an unforgettable Day 2 exploring the Ngorongoro Crater (a must). We stayed overnight at the Mawe Mawe Manyara Lodge, which was superb, comfortable, spectacular views over Lake Manyara, and a perfect place to unwind after a tiring day of exploration. One of the highlights was having a private safari vehicle for the three of us, which I would highly recommend for anyone seeking a more personal and flexible experience. Lekobe were incredibly responsive throughout, providing all the details we needed and much more! All transfers were punctual and comfortable. A special mention to Suleiman, who drove us from our hotel to the airport with great professionalism and warmth. Our safari guide, Emmanuel, was absolutely exceptional. His vast knowledge of the national parks and wildlife, combined with his friendly and genuine approach, made our experience truly memorable. We were genuinely sad to say goodbye. We were well catered for throughout the trip, with plentiful water, beer, wine, and thoughtfully prepared lunches. Every detail was considered, making us feel completely looked after. I would not hesitate to book with Lekobe again and we absolutely will for any future trips. OUTSTANDING service and unforgettable memories!

Very reliable and professional.

We booked a one-day fly-in/fly-out safari with Lekobe Adventures. Elvis' response to our initial inquiry came within minutes. I thought this was just the initial activity to secure new business, but Elvis' communication before, during and after the event was equally prompt, complete and accurate. On the day of the safari, a driver picked us up at our hotel at 04:30. We flew from ZNZ to Mikumi on a much larger aircraft than usual (ATR-42). Elvis met us at the airport, explained how the day will go and accompanied us to airport security. The safari itself was great - we saw all the animals that were there to see in Mikumi. But it was raining all morning and was really overcast the whole afternoon - but the weather is the only one thing that Lekobe Adventures cannot really influence. On our return, there was a driver supposed to be waiting for us at the airport. But he wasn't. Following a quick call to Elvis he called the driver, reassured us on his arrival and continued to check with us several times before the driver arrived (in about 15 minutes). Later the same day we received a formal apology from Lekobe for delay of the driver. I contacted two other agencies before booking with Elvis but the first one provided just a general response without any details, and the other one promised a response but never replied. Lekobe provided a personalised response with exhaustive level of detail to start with. After the safari we booked also another trip with Lekobe and were not dissappointed. They seem to be one of very few organisations in Zanzibar providing high-quality and reliable services.

The perfect safari

Amazing company with such attention to detail. Booking a safari was very confusing but Elvis was so accommodating and calm. I wasn’t sure what to expect and if all my details would be correct on arrival but from the moment we landed on the airstrip we were taken care of by Isac . We were taken immediately on a game drive and we saw most animals within 3 hours including Elephants, Giraffe, lions, zebra, Hyena and many more smaller species. We didn’t see them from a distance they were up very close to the car. The driver was informative and thrilling. The lunch was delicious and the picnic spot idillic. We were taken to our lodge which was the Serengeti safari lodge. This was very basic. A little too basic for me but a good experience and spectacular views. The people were friendly and the food was delicious. We were only there one night before we moved to the Melia hotel. This was more expensive but worth every penny. Simply amazing hotel, secluded and spectacular. The game drive you could pick the hours you wanted to do and our guide Isac was such a good spotter we only needed to drive from 8am until 3pm, it was enough we saw everything except Rhino on our trip. I don’t mean one elephant a day either. On the last day I counted near to 100 elephants. It’s a once in a lifetime experience and Le Kobe Adventures & Safaris company perfectly organized and extremely efficient. The jeeps were comfortable and spacious with open tops. I actually cried leaving the Serengeti it really did capture my heart. It is so natural and the guides are very respectful of the animals. Heaven on Earth!

Professionall, Outstanding & Unmissable

wow what can I say about "Kobe Adventures & Safaris Zanzibar city" star rating 10 out 10 plus more. I went on the Mikumi Safaris experience, as soon as I made contact they responded promptly confirming my booking and advising me of their current offers theyq responded to all of my queries aa I was a solo traveller. Jeremy & Jessica were so efficient ensuring I was updated and at ease. on the day of the tour I was picked up by Mr Sulemam the driver who ensured I got to the airport on time to be greeted by Jeremy who explained my itinerary. Its these little details that contribute to an exceptional service. I was warmly greeted by the one and only"Mr Able" who truly made my Safaris experience well worth every penny, his passion for his job naturally exudes him the depth of his knowledge of the animals and their habitat captivate you the audience and it is if the animals listen because he knew where to see all the animals. The team work and community spirit with the other tour guides working together to ensure everyone gets to see there desired animals. Trust me he put the word out about the elephants and boy did I get to see my elephants. So ultimately if there is only one tour/experience you do in Zanzibar make sure its this one - you will not regret it.

Excellent Service

From the moment we contacted Lekobe to inquire about their safari packages to the end of our tour, service was excellent. All of our requests were met and expectations were exceeded. The accommodations arranged were of great quality and our family was very comfortable. Our tour guide was the best and made sure our safari experience was top notch. Lekobe staff is the best group we have worked with and we will definitely use them again and again. They are professional, responsive, and go above and beyond to make sure your tour is amazing. Highly recommend!

Very good experience on Safari

We were 2 families on 5 days safari in Tangiere, Serengeti and Ngorongoro parks. Everything very well organised with good accommodations, Elvis really knows how to this business and he is amazing support from the office before and during the trip. Their tour guide Ephraim was simply amazing, he really tried to his best to get as much as possible from our safari experience. I deeply recommend this agency for your safari trip in Tanzania.

Marko

Amazing

Everything was well organized from beginning to end. Upon arrival in Mikumi, we were taken care of by a guide who knows the animals well and, most importantly, respects them. We saw many species — those that nature chose to reveal to us. It was an incredible experience, something to live at least once in a lifetime. The meal was also very good.

Amazing from start to finish

We would highly recommend Lekobe Adventures! We travelled from the UK and booked all our excursions through them — dolphin swimming, safari, Materuni Waterfalls, and Serval — and everything was absolutely perfect. Mathayo, our operator, was amazing from start to finish. He responded to all our messages quickly, planned our dream safari, and provided several great options so we could tailor the trip exactly how we wanted. Nothing was ever too much trouble. In Zanzibar, our driver Sulemam was so lovely and always on time, making every journey smooth and stress-free. In Arusha, our tour guide Philipo was incredible — so knowledgeable about everything, full of fun, and truly made our adventures unforgettable. He made it so hard for us to leave! Thank you to the entire Lekobe Adventures team for making our experience one we will never forget. Highly, highly recommended!

LeKobe Safari: Exceptional Fly-In Safari Experience

My experience with LeKobe Safari was nothing short of outstanding. Initially, I had booked a one-day fly-in safari from Zanzibar to Selous (Nyerere), but due to unforeseen flight cancellations (completely beyond their control), the plans had to change. What could have been a major setback was handled with absolute professionalism and care by the LeKobe team. They worked tirelessly to find an alternative solution within my tight schedule, ultimately organizing a one-day safari to Tarangire National Park instead. They arranged alternative flights and even booked accommodation to accommodate the extended duration. Their effort to ensure I had an incredible safari experience was truly commendable—they genuinely went the extra mile. In Tarangire, our guide, John, was phenomenal. His knowledge of the park and wildlife was exceptional, and his enthusiasm was infectious. He was attentive to every detail and determined to make the most of our time, allowing us to see as much wildlife as possible, including several of the Big Five. Thanks to LeKobe Safari and their incredible team, what began as a challenge turned into a seamless and unforgettable adventure. Their commitment to delivering the best possible experience makes them a top choice for any safari in Tanzania. Highly recommended!

EXCEEDED ALL EXPECTATIONS - UNFORGETTABLE!

I am not even sure I can properly put into words just how incredible our experience with LeKobe Adventures & Safaris was! To start from the beginning, I heard back almost immediately after inquiring. The communication was clear and quick. Simon helped to set us up with a 3-day Safari itinerary all on an incredibly detailed PDF with pictures. He also drove all the way to the other side of the island to meet us and go over the details the day prior to departing. They booked all the travel and flights. Everything was so smooth. We got picked up at 5am, had 8am flight from Zanzibar and eventually land on the airstrip right in Serengeti which was VERY COOL in itself. Zero issues. Now to my favorite, ALFRED!! Oh my god, we absolutely adored our guide, Alfred :) Top notch human-being. He was so calm and down to earth and absolutely brilliant! It seemed he had unlimited knowledge and passion for the land and wildlife. Not to mention, his incredible driving skills and binocular-eyes for spotting creatures! I honestly had no idea it was the start of the Great Migration when we were there and WOW. The sheer volume of wildlife we encountered was surreal. Literally tens of thousands of Wildebeests, Zebras, various Antelope and Birds, Giraffes, Buffalo, Elephants, Hyenas, Cheetahs, Baboons, Monkeys, Rhinos, Hippos, Tree Hyrax and so many more. We saw at least 40 lions on Day 1. A highlight was finding pride of lounging lions with eight cubs that all lined up for us on (pride) rock lol for pictures. I just know Alfred set this up for us ;) The lodges (Moyo Tented Camp + Ngorongoro Safari Lodge) were so cool. We received the most warm welcome at the Moyo Camp. The meals were all delicious! The flavors! I am drooling just remembering them. I would most definitely recommend trying the Serengeti wines - yum! I also got an incredible massage from my girl, Mary at the Ngorongoro Safari Lodge x magic hands. This was my second safari (I had done Kruger before) but it was my friends first, and I just have to say that the entire experience exceeded all expectations. LeKobe went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time and I can confirm, we most certaintly did just that. We want to come back again with our moms soon :) I would HIGHLY recommend this company for your safari adventures x THANK YOU SO MUCH SIMON, ALFRED, MR HARITH + TEAM FOR THE UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES AND BEST EXPERIENCE WE COULD HAVE ASKED FOR <3
