A Five Star Safari That Exceeded Every Expectations
Our group of five had an absolutely exceptional 8-day experience with Lion King Safari in Tanzania, truly a trip we will never forget.
From the very beginning, the team was incredibly accommodating and worked closely with us to craft the perfect itinerary. We never felt like just another booking; our preferences genuinely mattered, and that made a huge difference in the overall experience.
Our guide, Enock, was outstanding, easily one of the best guides we could have hoped for. His knowledge was incredibly deep and well rounded. Whether it was wildlife behavior, local culture, or the surrounding landscapes, he had thoughtful, detailed answers to every question we threw his way. You could tell he is not only experienced, but truly passionate and well researched in what he does.
What made the experience even more special is that Enock was not just our guide, he truly became part of our group. By the end of the trip, it felt like we were traveling with a friend. We were genuinely sad to say goodbye, which says everything about the kind of person and professional he is.
Thanks to Enock, we were always in the right place at the right time. He consistently positioned us perfectly for wildlife sightings, allowing us to see everything we hoped for and more, including the Big Five, the Ugly Five, and even what felt like the Big Nine. Every game drive felt intentional and expertly executed. At one point, we even had lunch near a leopard that Enock knew well. He shared the history of her and her family over the past five years, which made the experience even more meaningful. We also witnessed a live kill by a lion pride, an unforgettable, once in a lifetime moment.
Beyond the wildlife, the entire experience was rich and immersive. The landscapes were breathtaking, the food was consistently delicious, and the cultural experiences added another meaningful layer to the trip. The coffee tour, in particular, was one of our favorite highlights, authentic, engaging, and memorable.
This was more than just a safari, it was a thoughtfully curated, seamless, and deeply rewarding experience from start to finish.
We highly recommend Lion King Safari to anyone considering a trip to Tanzania, and if you have the opportunity, request Enock as your guide. He will elevate your experience in every way possible.

Poor
We started planning our safari in Tanzania in September 2025, and from the very beginning, communication was extremely difficult. For almost every question, we had to follow up multiple times just to receive a response.
Eventually, we received the final quotation and paid the deposit. After that, we continued to ask a few additional questions, but unfortunately, even now, one month after the trip... we still haven’t received answers.
During the trip, we also encountered several issues. Some of our accommodation requests were not respected, despite being clearly confirmed via email. Additionally, meals that were listed as included in the offer had to be paid for directly at the hotels.
This is particularly disappointing considering the significant amount of money we paid for this experience. We expected a much higher level of professionalism, communication, and service.

Everything was perfect!
Dear Lion King Adventures Team,
Eric and I wanted to simply share with you our greatest THANK YOU!!!
We had an absolutely amazing trip in Tanzania. We came to you very last minute, 2 weeks and a half before departure, in a very busy season… I was quite stressed and we received the best service!!
First, Caroline, you answered all my questions, emails, messages, calls, so quickly, which made me very confident and were able to adjust all the details that I needed. Very quickly we were able to confirm the booking and your responsiveness and comprehension of our needs was key! THANK YOU!
Then, Nickson, you took over and every single detail was taken into consideration, confirmed and aligned with our expectations, decisions and needs. Your responsiveness was also so helpful and we felt that you were in absolute full control of our trip. THANK YOU
And then we met Mecky! What a fantastic guide. You made us feel confortable, at ease from the start. The car was impeccable every time we entered, we couldn’t understand how it could go from filled with mud and dirt the night before to spick and span the next morning.. incredible! Your great experience and knowledge were obvious throughout our trip, it was so insightful to learn so much! The kids loved the experience and they were really attached to you, you connected so well with them! They miss you!! MERCIIIII
Everywhere we went, everything we saw, was amazing! The lodges were great, comfortable, everyone so welcoming! Our favorite was Nyota! It was splendid, such a unique experience, the grounds were beautiful, that pool in the middle of the savana, and the staff, fantastic, so welcoming, so kind, so helpful! We were sad to leave!
So once again, we are so happy and blessed to have had such an amazing the trip. It was the trip of a lifetime, a trip we dreamt of and we are so grateful for your help and organization.
We will be more than happy to leave a review, just let me know on which platforms you prefer.
Thank you 🙏 Asante Sana 🫶🫶
The Dumaresq Family
Lion King was great to work with and our safari with them was excellent.
Lion King was terrific. Making our reservation with them was easy and efficient. Any questions, concerns and changes I requested were addressed thoroughly and quickly. All the people we worked with from the reservation agents, guide/driver and staff at all of the accommodations were welcoming, knowledgeable and pleasant. We were very happy with our safari route and all the camps/lodges we stayed at were comfortable, clean, safe and in beautiful surroundings. The diversity of habitats we experienced, and the numbers and variety of animals we saw was amazing. Overall, an excellent trip and adventure.
I would highly recommend Lion King and hope to return for another safari with them.
The Tanzanian people are proud, friendly and gracious. A real pleasure to work with.

Another perfectly organized and managed 8 days safari
We were a family group of 7 persons on this safari. It has been perfectly organized and managed even when Lion King had to adjust the program due to the impact of the starting rainy season : heavy rain made some track impassable cutting the access to Ndutu area from the Serengeti.
Our drivers were excellent both has guides and drivers and we never felt in danger.
The visit to the Hadzabes and Datoga tribes were fascinations extensions and left lasting memories to both adults and children.
The camps were offering an excellent comfort and food and we all appreciated the presence of all kind of animal around and sometimes inside the camp!
This was our third safari tous with Lion King Adventures and we can only applaud the choice of this operator.
