Excellent and Outstanding Trip Our 5 day safari with African Diurnal Safaris exceeded every expectation. The communication with Lameck was fast, clear, and professional from the very first message. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Every detail was perfectly organized — hotels, meals, routes, game drives — everything was handled with care and precision. We saw the Big Five, stunning landscapes, and experienced Tanzania in the most authentic way. Truly great value for money and a company you can fully rely on. Highly recommend African Diurnal Safaris.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

*A wonderful 8- day safari with our guide Elisante" African Diurnal Safaris is exceeded our expectations in every way, the booking process was smooth, with the team consistently responsive, accommodating, and tailoring our trip the way we wanted it. From the moment we landed in Kilimanjaro airport, everything went according to our plans. Our guide Elisante was exceptional - friendly, punctual, patient, highly knowledgeable, and a true professional. He ensured our safari through Tarangire, northern Serengeti for the great migration, and Ngorongoro crater.Thanks to Elisante's expert guidance, we had the privilege of witnessing breathtaking wildlife including the great migration at the Mara river, as well as lions, cheetahs, leopard, rhinos, buffaloes , elephants, the fascinating African "ugly 5", countless other species roaming the plains and Highlands, along with a incredible variety of birds - the wonders were endless.We are deeply grateful to African Diurnal Safaris and special thanks to Lameck who suggested a wonderful itinerary for us, as well as our guide Elisante for crafting such unforgettable experience for our family.

Amazing Safari An amazing experience in Kenya on safari. African Diurnal were great from the beginning booking to the end of the trip. They offered fantastic payment and cancellation terms that really made us feel comfortable. They were very clear with their communications beforehand and had everything prepared for our arrival in Kenya. Their driver (Robert) was truly fantastic, with local knowledge and a calmness that put us at ease straight away. His wildlife knowledge enabled us to have really close encounters with all of the big five! We also witnessed a cheetah and lion double kill on our last game drive! Amazing! Would highly recommend this company for an East African safari experience!Posted on Google![]()

We embarked on a luxurious 12-day safari adventure in Tanzania and Kenya, during which we explored the breathtaking Serengeti and the renowned Masai Mara. This experience was not only wonderful but also far surpassed our expectations regarding the diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes we encountered. We were fortunate to observe hundreds of elephants, giraffes, buffalos, hippos, lions, and countless other species, including the magnificent leopards and cheetahs. The expertise and dedication of our guides, Elisante in Tanzania and David in Kenya, were significant highlights of our trip. Their extensive knowledge of the region and its wildlife, coupled with their genuine passion for their work, contributed to a seamless and delightful journey. I highly recommend African Diurnal Safaris.+4Posted on Google![]()

Very knowledgeable about wildlife and a perfect and safe driver who pays respect to wildlife 🐆 Lameck is the owner of this wonderful safari agency. He is born and raised a little outside Serengeti and knows tremendous much about the wildlife in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. He speaks perfectly English and during our shared dinner, we have talked about nature, politics, culture, religion, history - we have learned so much! Very importantly he is an experienced and safe driver who also takes care of the animals e.g. waiting for animals to cross roads in contrast to many other drivers we saw on our way. We experienced a flat tire on night - but no problem! Lameck could fix it right away 🙌 We are so happy, that we consider to hire the company next year for a safari in Uganda and/or Kenya 🦒Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Amazing 7 day safari experiences in Northern Tanzania Unforgettable safari experience with African Diurnal Safaris . I and my husband went on a 7-days safari adventure covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara national park and had the most spectacular experience. The guide Lameck goes above and beyond to give us an unforgettable safari. With Lameck’s help we managed to see all the big five’s and we had incredible experiences seeing both lions and Leopard hunting prey. The selected accommodations (Tortilis Camps and Karatu Tented Lodge) was top norch and food were great throughout the whole safari trip. Would highly recommend anyone going for a safari with African Diurnal Safaris and choose Lameck to be your safari guide you won't regret.
