Epic safari where we viewed all African animals. Guide Macha was so great!
5/5

Accommodations were top notch, our guide Macha was excellent. Saw everything we dreamed of.

Great Safari experience
5/5

We did a 5 day mid range private safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. It was a great experience, very well organised, nice accomodations, and we had the best guide Saleh Mkwanda. He's a safe driver and a very communicative guide. Will definitely book with them again in the future.

Absolutely fantastic company
5/5

We did extensive research before we finally booked with Lion King Adventures, and we were not disappointed. Their price was very competitive. There were less expensive options but Lion King's communication was great! Lion King was quick to answer all of our questions in a timely manner. This is a trip of a lifetime and we were very specific with what we wanted to do and see. We had many questions and requests that were not only handled with care but expeditiously, as well. We were very keen to be able to see as much as possible in our 7 days and the itinerary was perfect. We also wanted to give back to the community and Lion King Adventures were able to help arrange a visit to a local market to buy fresh produce and goods to deliver to a local orphanage...perfect.
Now about the safari...we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, & Lake Manyara. We were able to see every animal we wanted and spent as long as we needed watching them and taking thousands of photos. Our Safari guide was Gilbert. He was very knowledgeable and was just as happy and excited with every animal we saw, to watch the wildlife and answer all of our questions. We never felt rushed or disappointed when we moved on as there was still a lodge to get to at the end of each day. We got to see Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Hyenas, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffes, Warthog, Hippos, Jackals, many different Antelopes and monkeys, Secretary Birds, Ostrich, Cape buffalo, Kori Bustards, Zebra and Wildebeest (migrating) and so much more. We even witnessed a live kill.
Accommodations were amazing, we had a mix of lodges and tented units. All were full service and the food was excellent. There was great choice and it was very fresh. Bottled water was provided everyday in the vehicle and also at the overnight lodges. While we were staying in the Serengeti (tented) we had to be escorted by Masaai before dawn and after dusk to protect us from the wildlife. We were woken one night to the sound of chomping and just outside the tent was a hippo.....just wow.
We finished our last day visiting the Materuni waterfall at the base of Mt. Kilimanjaro and a coffee plantation. It was really interesting and the best cup of coffee ever. We made it ourselves from bean all the way to cup.
Lion King Adventures were exceptional from my first communication with them until we left.
A huge thank you to Rose, Gilbert, Jabari and the rest of the team. They made this the perfect trip. We will be back.

A visit to Tanzania with family in July 2025
5/5

We travelled to Tanzania for a 11-day/10-night safari including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Lake Natron, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We went on our Safari through Lion King. We want to share our whole experience.

Itinerary

I worked with Gordon Fischer to come up with an itinerary that we liked. The whole planning experience was so smooth and interactive. I live in the US, which has a different timezone than TZ. Despite time differences, I could communicate with Gordon at any time. I wanted a very specific itinerary with specific accommodations. Gordon customized the itinerary to include all those, reaching out to the specific camps to confirm they have what we wanted, and changed the itinerary multiple times until we were satisfied. We had to change the schedule a couple of times due to unforeseen events, and he was accommodative of all of that. It was a pleasure to work with him!

Transportation and Accomodation

The vehicle was clean and very comfortable, carrying 4 people and luggages all the time. The accommodations were top notch, except for a couple of camps that were very basic. In general, the lodges, glamps and camps were clean and served great food. They were very entertaining in the evenings with special performances.

Guide/Driver

We had Benjamin as our guide and driver for the whole 11-day trip. We couldn’t have gotten a better person to guide us. Our 2 main requirements were vegetarian food and ability to photograph wild-life. Benjamin ensured that we got fresh cooked food in containers (not packed sandwiches) with a fresh supply of vegetables and fruits. He ensured that the lunch was picnic-caliber and a good break from day-long travelling. But the most important quality of his that we appreciated most was his ability to spot the animals we were looking for, ensure that we see them and photograph them and have patience to allow us to get the best pictures. We remember him busting a couple of other guides who showed water buffaloes as Rhinos to their clients. Ultimately, he did find the real Rhinos and shared the location with others. His knowledge of all the locations is so immense that he drove for hours to show us a Lion Pride containing 19 lions which were so hard to spot in the vast Serengeti. He loved the kids and the kids loved him so much. Their interaction was fun to watch.

To summarize, we couldn’t have asked for a better location, better tour operator and a better guide to etch a great chapter in our memory book!

Best local company to travel to Tanzania, a dream came true
5/5

We did a four days safari with our guide Heaven Temba and three days in Zanzíbar.
I checked several local companies for organising the trip and Lion King was one of the best valued
Everything was really well planned, Jovita chose the best places for us to stay.
We were very lucky to have HEAVEN as our guide, he has a deep knowlegde of the animals and parks.
He has also excellent driving skills which made us feel comfortable when travelling.Driving in the parks seems to be very tough but we feel safe with Heaven
We spotted many animals such as lions,hyenas, leopards, cheetah, hippos...
Apart from that Heaven was an easy going, friendly and talkative person, we enjoyed every moment we spent with him, specially my 8 year old daughter Lucía.
We wish we could repeat this wonderful trip in the future.
