Simply a message to express how unique you made our safari. From greeting us at the airport, despite any delays, to staying at the magnificent Arusha Planet Lodge, to the actual safari, and finally to the airport drop-off. John our tour guide, was remarkably punctual and meticulous. We both enjoyed the talents, expertise, and enthusiasm very lot. More animals of a higher diversity than we could have imagined were visible to us. Every day was energizing, and our meals were delicious, made with fresh, local food. Lastly, we would like to thank Peniel for his amazing work organizing this unique week and for his quick responses to all of our emails.

Our 7 days safari in Tanzania was above and above my expectations; We did a camping safari, it will always remain a memorable experience. We are really appreciative to our friends for recommending the company and our guide Anton to us. We had a quick and easy email exchange with the owner, so we knew precisely what to anticipate when we got there. During the tour, Benson, the cook, took good care of our tummies and was a really kind guide who gave us a lot of information! Throughout the trip, I realized that the guide and cook truly can make all the difference between an incredible and dreadful experience. We had a great time because we were well-cared for, which is why picking a reputable business is crucial.

I and my sisters did a 2-day safari to Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater with Lights on Africa. We saw a lots of big Elephants in Tarangire and were very lucky that the two lions came very close to our vehicle. Ngorongoro was amazing. We saw 6 lions with a cub and the rhino for about 20 meters. It was our first time to safari and we had a very fabulous trip. Our guide, Silas, was very knowledgeable and charming. He can spot the animals even before we can, he was so helpful even when we had forgotten our camera at lodge. He managed to communicate with the lodge manager and some one brought us our camera in the Crater.

We are planning to go for Serengeti next year and we will definitely contact Lights on Africa to arrange our trip.

This was our first trip to the heart of Africa even though we are Egyptians living in the same continent! We picked Tanzania because of its beautiful scenery and amazing array of wildlife. I began to make some inquiries through the internet and Mr Peniel, the owner of Lights on Africa Destination, quickly responded to me. He gave me all the necessary details and swiftly changed the itinerary to fit our schedule. I was amazed to find out he was a Tanzanian gentleman, originally a Masai, so no one can really compete with him in his deep love for his country or his hands on knowledge of it.
The four wheel drive he got for us was excellent and all the accomodations were very comfortable, clean and luxurious. Our wildlife guide, Mr Huruma,was superbly experienced, charming and geniunely kind hearted. His former work as a warden in the Serengeti Park provided him with such depth of knowledge and love for nature. He provided us not only with the identification of species (which is difficult in itself), but also with interpretation of their behaviour.

My husband, my son and I have enjoyed this trip like no other we had in our life. We are looking forward to go back to Tanzania in August to witness with Mr Peniel and Mr Huruma the saga of wildebeest while crossing the river in the dry season. We also want to come back for Zanzibar and the southern national parks. In short, Lights on Africa Destination made us want to come back again and again!
