Best trip ever
5/5

We spent 10 incredible days with Lion King, starting with a visit to Arusha followed by eight days on safari. During our trip, we explored Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire National Park.

This was our honeymoon, and without a doubt, it will remain the most special and unforgettable trip we’ve ever taken.

Our first guide, Sharhan, showed us around Arusha, and he did an amazing job. He was joyful, positive, and shared so much with us about the city’s culture and history. It was the perfect introduction to Tanzania.

For our Kilimanjaro hike, we were accompanied by Saladin. We reached the first camp in a single day, and he made the experience both enjoyable and memorable. He was knowledgeable, encouraging, and adapted the pace to our fitness level. He also had a great sense of humor and taught us a lot about the mountain, its wildlife, and the surrounding nature. We spotted several monkeys along the way and had a fantastic day with him.

Finally, we spent eight days on safari with Amani, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was always punctual in the mornings while remaining flexible whenever we were running a little late. His knowledge of the wildlife and the different parks was exceptional. He was an excellent driver, incredibly patient, and always made sure we had the best possible experience.

Not only did he help us spot the Big Five, but we also saw five leopards and two pangolins, something incredibly rare. We truly feel that this trio of guides brought us incredible luck, but the reality is that Amani’s expertise, experience, and ability to read the bush made all the difference. We were also fortunate enough to witness the Great Migration in the north.

One thing we especially appreciated was the respect Amani showed toward the animals. We didn’t want to contribute to overcrowding or stress wildlife with too many vehicles around them. Whenever he saw that too many safari cars had gathered around an animal, he preferred to move on and find another sighting elsewhere rather than add to the disturbance. That meant a lot to us.

We also stayed at Lion King’s lodge in the Serengeti, Nyota, which was truly one of the highlights of our trip. The lodge was beautiful, the staff were incredibly welcoming, and the overall experience was exceptional.

Another memorable moment was visiting a local orphanage, where we were able to donate school furniture. We genuinely appreciated that Lion King gives back to the local community by supporting charities and local initiatives. It made our trip feel even more meaningful.

We ended our safari with the Lake Manyara Treetop Walk, accompanied by Simon. He was knowledgeable, funny, and shared fascinating stories about Tanzanian culture and the different tribes. He made the experience both educational and entertaining.

Communication before and during the trip was seamless. The team was always quick to respond to our questions. We were mainly in contact with Jovitha and Nickson, and everything went smoothly from the planning stage to the very end of our trip. Even while we were in Tanzania, we had a few phone calls to adjust some details, and everything was handled quickly and effortlessly.

The payment process was also secure and straightforward. We paid by bank transfer using Revolut, and everything went perfectly.

From beginning to end, Lion King was reliable, professional, and extremely well organized. They were also flexible enough to add activities during our trip whenever we wanted. Throughout our honeymoon, we truly felt we were in good hands. Several hotels, as well as the Lion King team, surprised us with thoughtful gestures to celebrate our marriage, which made the trip even more special. There was always plenty of water and refreshments in the vehicle, and the safari car itself was comfortable, clean, and reliable.

Finally, we were amazed by every place we stayed, whether it was a luxury tented camp or a hotel. The hospitality was outstanding everywhere we went. Every member of staff welcomed us with kindness and made us feel at home. It truly elevated an already unforgettable experience.

We wholeheartedly recommend Lion King to anyone looking for a stress-free, safe, and unforgettable safari experience.

This has been, by far, the best and highest-quality trip we have ever experienced in our lives, and it is a honeymoon we will cherish forever.

He was laid back, funny, go with the flow kind of guy.
5/5

Me and my family had an amazing time on this Safari we did in Tanzania! Our tour guide was named Mechy and he was so good. We saw the big 5 all very close up which was awesome. Mech was not only a great tour guide but a really good driver as well, the parks roads are quite rough especially in the Serengeti, and Mech did a very good job making the ride as smooth as possible while still getting around quick. He was so kind to us which made the safari even more enjoyable. We loved our stays at the Nyota Rift Valley, as well as Nyota Serengeti, the staff were great and the resort as well as the rooms were very comfortable. Animals to walk onto the resort at the Serengeti which could be good or bad depending on your personal liking, we had multiple buffalo right outside our room at night while walking back to go to bed, it was a bit frightening because they can be aggressive but we had some of the staff with us and they did an amazing job keeping us safe. So overall would highly recommend booking through lion king and requesting Mechy as your driver! Thank you Lion king and Mechy!!!

Exceeded our expectations
5/5

We were recommended Lion King by friends, the safari, airport pick up and guide plus accomodation exceeded our expectations. The safari guide was knowledgeable and polite. The staff at all the accomodation were hugely attentive, and all the food was delicious and plenty.

5 stars for Lemomo Lesaito
5/5

Lemomo was great from the start until the end of our trip. His patience and effort were flawless, we got to see some great wildlife thanks to his great driving, we also felt safe on the roads as he took his time. We would recommend Lemomo and to go on this trip.

Great Planning
5/5

We loved Lion King Adventures. We told them exactly what we wanted to do and see and they really delivered. Initial communication was great and timely. One feedback I would give is that better response would be encouraged while patrons are on the trip. We never received a response for an emailed request. Overall our trip was absolutely amazing!!! Our tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and personable. Transportation was timely and safe. The selection of lodges and hotels were top tier. We were extremely satisfied. Thanks for making our trip one to remember!
