Great unforgettable experience - A unique experience, perfectly organized. We were perfectly looked after all day, on the way there, at the airport and of course during the tour. Our guide Abel surpassed himself and found everything with great competence. He was very successful in making sure we had an unforgettable day.

An incredible moment - In September we did a day safari with Le Kobe Adventures and James as our guide. It was one of the most amazing experiences ever! We saw a lot more than we ever thought we would. Our guide had a really good knowledge of the park and the animals and had years of experience as a park ranger. The transfer from the hotel to the airport was smooth and the pick up was on time, the food was great overall. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who doesn't have enough time for a safari.

An amazing experience to be treasured forever - 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 as 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 Abel" 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 they came out to perform and he knew where to see all the animals. The team work and community spirit berween all the tour guides in this park working together to ensure everyone gets to see there desired animals is gratifyingto see. Trust me "Mr Abel" 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.

Best tour guide - Wonderful experience on our tour of Tanzania National parks with the best guide! Everything was well planned. But the highlight of the trip was our tour guide Ernest. A guide can really make or break a trip, and he truly made the trip one to remember. He was so knowledgeable about the parks and animals and the culture and provided great overviews but also went into detail when asked. We never felt rushed when in the parks but felt like we saw everything we wanted to see. As I saw how other guides interacted with their group, I knew he was special because of how well he engaged with us. Thank you Le Kobe adventures & Safaris for an amazing safari.

Zanzibar-Mikumi travels - Amazing trip with Le Kobe Adventures & Safaris . We really enjoyed every moment and can totally recommend it. We saw lots of animals and were able to learn a lot about them from our driver Isaac. We wanted to support a local organization and that is why we chose this company. Everything was really well organized and went smoothly. If we had to choose, we would book the same trip again.
