Outstanding experience
5/5

Excellent experience. Communication was very smooth from day 1. Our guide Goodluck Lucas was very very competent, a safe driver, very experienced with the park and he knew a lot about all the animals we saw. We strongly recommend Lion King Adventures as we had an amazing experience!

Outstanding from start to finish—expert guides, wonderful camps and an unforgettable adventure
5/5

This was our first safari, and we couldn't be happier with our choice to go with Lion King.

Our guide (Flugence) was amazing - really knowledgeable about all of the animals and birds, the parks, Tanzania and its people, and perhaps more importantly, excellent company for 10 days. He had a remarkable ability to find and spot all of the animals we wanted to see - and plenty more besides. One of the highlights was his skill in finding exactly the right place and time for us to catch the wildebeest crossing the river in the Northern Serengeti.

Flugence was also a excellent driver - we always felt completely safe no matter how challenging the roads became. He was really patient too: we were never rushed and he spent a lot of time in the evening helping us sort photos, identify all of the birds and animals we'd seen, and learn and practice our Swahili. We couldn't fault Flugence at all, and will definitely ask for him again when we return.

All of the accommodation was very good, but the two tented camps we stayed at in the Serengeti were particularly special - Embalakai Serengeti (Hippo Camp) and Serengeti Classic View Camp (Kogatende). Both of these had great locations and well furnished tents, the food was amazing, the staff super helpful and friendly, and lovely to see animals so close to the camp.

After visiting the parks, we did the night hike up Ol Doinyo Lengai - this was definitely more challenging than we anticipated (especially coming down), but a great experience, and the amazing views from the top of the volcano were well worth the effort. Our guide for the hike (Yohanna) was amazing - very patient, with plenty of rests and encouragement, and paced us perfectly to reach the top at sunrise.

Finally, we can't fault the organisation and service from Lion King - communication was great, everything was smoothly organised, and the whole holiday went off without a hitch. Dietary requirements (gluten free vegetarian food) had been clearly communicated to all accommodation in advance and flawlessly catered for (with more variety and choice than most places we have visited). Although it was a more expensive holiday than we'd normally take, it was excellent value - we're very happy to recommend them and hope to use them again in the future.

A perfect safari in every way: flawless organization and an exceptional guide!
5/5

Our safari experience with The Lion King Adventures Team was simply perfect, far exceeding our expectations. Every single detail of the trip worked flawlessly from the very first moment, allowing us to enjoy the magic of the savannah without the slightest stress.

I want to highlight two aspects in particular that made this trip unforgettable:

The administration support: The team was outstanding. They were always incredibly fast in replying to our requests and showed extraordinary flexibility in adjusting our dates and organizing last-minute flight connections. The constant communication before our departure made us feel supported and in great hands at all times.

Our guide: A true professional. He had a vast amount of field experience, which gave us a huge sense of safety throughout our days in the jeep. He was not only highly knowledgeable in explaining every secret of the wildlife and the territory, but also incredibly patient, adapting to our pace and answering every question with a smile.

We highly recommend The Lion King Adventures Team to anyone looking to experience an authentic safari in total peace of mind and safety. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure!

Helped create the perfect vacation experience.
5/5

To summarize, I had the perfect safari experience with the 7 Days Mid-Luxury Safari. Working with Lion King prior to travel was easy and communication was prompt. I appreciated having base itinerary packets that you could build off of. The logistics of the trip were all handled so all I had to do was show up and enjoy the trip. The accommodations were great, meals were a blend of American and Tanzanian food. I LOVED the tented lodges- you get privacy with the most incredible views. My guide was excellent at finding the animals I wanted to see.

Pros
Customizable
Private tours (you're not just a number in a group) which means we were able to explore the parks at our will and tailor each day to what we wanted
Guide was incredible at spotting animals without the CB radio
Easy
Lake Burunge Tented Lodge has a beautiful watering hole for animals to visit
Nyota Serengeti Camp is STUNNING and it's so fun to see the Dik Dik sleeping around your camp. Buffalo and other animals moving through.
Foot on Africa is new but private pool and great views


Cons
Not many
Airport Planet lodge didn't include drinks with dinner so I hand to scramble to find one dollar for water on my last day of the trip (very minor)

An unforgettable safari experience from start to finish, with exceptional guidance, incredible wildl
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience from start to finish. The team supported us very well, including help with how to pay/visa tips, making everything easy and stress free.

Our guide Murshid was very good and made the safari truly special with his knowledge of wildlife and the Serengeti. We learned a lot about the Great Migration and the ecosystem.

We saw incredible wildlife, including many lions, the Great Migration, rhinos, leopards, and cheetahs. A highlight was witnessing lions successfully hunting a buffalo.

The lodges and camps were excellent, and the service was great throughout.

This was a dream experience, and we highly recommend this company\.
