Incredible Safari Experience with Emanuel – Highly Recommended! My name is Harry, and I had an amazing safari experience organized by Emanuel from Lion View Tour. Emanuel was an excellent safari guide and driver—professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. I truly enjoyed every moment and was lucky enough to see the Big Five! I arrived at Arusha Airport, where I was picked up right on time. We started with a city tour of Arusha and enjoyed some very delicious soup. Later, I stayed overnight at a beautiful lodge near Emanuel’s home. It was very clean, had a comfortable bed, and I felt completely safe. The next morning, we drove to Tarangire National Park for a full-day game drive, which was fantastic. Afterward, we continued to Karatu for an overnight stay, which was also very pleasant. The following day, we visited the Ngorongoro Crater—an absolutely breathtaking place with incredible wildlife. We spent the full day exploring and spotting animals. Next, we traveled to Lake Eyasi, where we stayed overnight and experienced something truly unique—the Hadzabe tribe. We met the bushmen, went hunting with them, and even caught two birds! We also tasted fresh honey straight from a beehive. It was an unforgettable experience watching them harvest honey without getting stung—truly fascinating and fun! On the same day, we drove back to Arusha Airport on time, and I caught my flight to Zanzibar without any issues. Thank you very much, Emanuel, for such a wonderful and well-organized safari. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable experience. Best regards, Harry

Eine unglaublich großartige Safari! Unsere Safaritour mit Fahrer und Tourguide Emanuel von Lion View Tours hat unsere Erwartungen weit übertroffen. Wir können nur staunen, wie perfekt er über alle Tiere und Pflanzen Bescheid weiß. Und das alles in ganz prima deutscher Sprache! Er hat die ganze Tour (Kilimandscharo, Tarangire NP, Materunisee, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Eyasi-See, Arusha) so perfekt geplant und organisiert! Auch die von ihm ausgewählten Lodges waren super. Seine kleinen Seitentrips u.a. zu den Assai, Datoga oder Hadze (Bergwanderung mit Jagd) waren sehr spannend. Und sein Unternehmen Lion View Tours macht dem Namen alle Ehre: Natürlich jede Menge Löwen gesehen, ebenso alle anderen großen und kleinen Tiere. Emanuel: immer gute Stimmung, erzählt sehr viel zu Land und Leuten, wir haben enorm viel über Tansania gelernt. Also: Wenn Tansania, was uns mit allem drum und dran sehr gefallen hat, dann mit Emanuel Marite!

He has a great personality who gives his best to make all his guests happy! He showed us around and explained us always about the country. We were two girls travelling alone and we always felt save during the trip! You should definitely do the tour with him! his german is quite good and also he speaks fluently english. After the trip, friends got jealous and want to book as well with Emanuel:) so highly recommended! Asante sana, Özlem, Ninorta

Best trip & best tour guide Im August diesen Jahres haben wir eine unvergessliche Reise in die Nationalparks von Tansania erleben dürfen. Mein Freund und ich haben 3 Tage lang die wunderschöne Landschaft und die Tierwelt Tansanias bestaunt. Im Nachhinein betrachtet sind wir traurig, dass wir nur 3 Tage gebucht haben, da es uns so sehr gefallen hat. Vor allem hatten wir riesen Glück mit unserem perfekt deutschsprechenden Tourguide Emanuel. Unabhängig von der sprachlichen "Barriere", die er sich eingenständig durch Youtube Videos beigebracht hat, war er ein unfassbar herzlicher Mensch, der immer unsere Bedürfnisse in den Vordergrund gestellt hat. Durch sein Know-How und die Art und Weise wie er die Safari gestaltet hat, können wir Lion View Tours nur jedem weiterempfehlen und falls wir wieder kommen sollten, dann nur noch mit Emanuel :) Vielen Dank für die einzigartigen und schönen Erinnerungen!

Trip to Paradise Wir haben diesen Sommer eine 3 tägige Safari durch verschiedene Parks in Tansania gemacht. Unser Guide Emanuel konnte perfekt deutsch und hat einem jeden Wunsch erfüllt. Er war sehr bemüht uns alle Tiere zu zeigen oder sie via Funk mit seinen Kollegen ausfindig zu machen. Er hielt sich an alle Vorschriften und man hatte keine Angst in schlechten Händen zu sein. Wir sind oft aus eigenem Interesse schon relativ früh zu den Parks gefahren, da dort die Chancen die Tiere in Aktion zu sehen sehr hoch sind. Alles in allem können wir uns nur nochmal bei Emanuel nur für die wunderschöne Zeit bedanken und ich hoffe das er mit seinem Lionsviewtours richtig durchstarten kann !

Furthermore, we were singing and happily driving around - these were just unforgettable moments and will be memories forever! Emanuel showed us the great spirit of Tansania! We strongly recommand. Emanuel ist ein toller Mensch und der beste Führer in Tansania. Wir hatten eine super Safari mit ihm. Er hat uns so viele Dinge, Pflanzen und Tiere gezeigt.

Safari 2019 Jambo!! Meine Kollegin und ich hatten vor 3 Jahren das Glück Emanuel als unseren persönlichen Tourguide zu haben. Es war eine Bereicherung durch und durch. Er zeigte uns die wunderschöne Tierwelt Tanzanias mit viel Insider-Wissen und erstaunlicher Beobachtungsgabe! Es wurde viel gelacht und gesungen. Wir waren super betreut und nebst der Natur, waren die Unterhaltungen und die Herzlichkeit von Emanuel ein riesen Highlight unserer Reise. Danke Emanuel für diese unvergässliche Erlebnisse! Hakuna Matata!
