You will not regret choosing Lion King for your safrari. We were very pleased with their operation.
I contacted Safari Bookings to find a tour operator for our safari experience. They forwarded a list of operators to contact, and our group looked them over and decided to use Lion King because it looked like the accommodations they provided were better than some of the others. Not only were we not disappointed, we were extremely impressed with the quality of the lodgings. The hotels and resorts were outstanding, and we had an all inclusive package with Lion King. The staff of all of the lodgings were very responsive, and the resorts all had excellent food! The accommodations were worth the price of admission by themselves!
The Lion King staff was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We had a group of 9 people with different travel plans, and Lion King was flexible and accommodating for all of us. They provided amenities in the vehicles for our enjoyment as we drove in search of game, including plenty of water, beer and picnic lunches. The guides were very personable and knowledgeable, and we loved being with them for the length of our safari.
I of course can’t compare Lion King to other operators, but we were all very pleased with their operation and were happy to have spent a little more to use Lion King. We all felt that the value of what we received for the price we paid was excellent! Highly recommend Lion King!

Reliable & Ethical Local Tour Operator
We’ve been on safaris in about 6 other countries. We chose Lion King Adventures because we wanted to travel with a Tanzanian owned and run tour company with Tanzanian staff, not based in some other country with foreigners running the business. While the safari was not cheap, no ethical safari is, we wanted our money to go directly to people in the country—that was our first consideration. Second, was that our tour would be private with only our group of 3 and that our itinerary was fully customizable including what parks we visited, where we stayed, and all the daily activities. Communication with the office staff was thorough, prompt, and friendly, which made the process of planning our trip enjoyable and sending payment online less nerve-racking. The airlines lost our bags and once in country, LKA was super helpful in tracking and bringing our bags to us as soon as they made it to Arusha! Our guide was young and seemed a bit inexperienced when it came to discussing the day’s plan with us ahead of time, so parts of the trip felt rushed and like we didn’t have quite enough time or know what to expect (particularly visiting Olduvai Gorge). He also didn’t volunteer much information unless asked directly. However, he was a safe, ethical driver, friendly, knew a lot about the parks and animals when asked, and was great at showing us different areas of the parks and finding awesome wildlife encounters. If I’m being honest, I’d give LKA 5 stars as a tour company and our particular guide 3.5 stars, as I’ve had guides that were more engaging and more experienced managing our itinerary and preferences in the moment, which is why their overall rating is a 4. Overall, I’m very pleased with our trip and only wish it could’ve been longer—2 or 3 days at each location was simply not enough! Tanzania is an incredible country and having spent a lot of time in southern Africa I was so impressed with the country’s dedication managing the parks ethically from a conservation and tourism perspective and employing & empowering their own people to care for everything. I can only dream about coming back someday. Asante sana, Lion King Adventures! <3

Super!
We had a very positive experience with the entire Lion King organization. Florida listened to our requests and was able to design a wonderful safari that allowed us to visit all of the areas we wanted. Our guide was Yuseph, and he was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and he was a pleasure to spend the 6 days. He was able to help us find all of the animals we were interested in seeing and he demonstrated ethical respect for the animals and for their habitats. We would strongly recommend choosing Lion King!

Awesome experience!
The trip was absolutely wonderful. Caroline and Florida set up an amazing set of lodgings and experiences for our trip. They went out of their way to accommodate our special requests. At short notice we could not have planned the trip without them. Highly recommend Lion King Adventures. We would do it all over again. Enoch our guide was the best! He was friendly, knowledgeable and ensured we travelled comfortably while witnessing all the beauty and wildlife of Tanzania.

Responsive, reliable, great advice and guidance
Fantastic experience with this tour operator. Very quick to respond to inquiries; great advice planning the trip; everything went very smoothly. Good value for money compared to other companies we looked at. A real highlight was our wonderful tour guide and skilled driver, Geoffrey. We all felt safe and well looked after with him. He was from the Serengeti and his stories, knowledge and local insight really added to the trip. I would highly recommend Lion King Adventures.
