Friendly super organized with highly qualified and thoughtful staff.
We booked a once in a lifetime trip. Firstly a safari in Tanzania encompassing the Serengeti., Ngorongo crater and Lake Tarangire. The followed by a trip to Zanzibar
The support provided by Lion King Adventuees was unbelievably good. Our head office contact Nickson was wonderfully responsive despite the 8 hour time difference. He worked with us to ensure our complicated agenda and logistics were handled seamlessly and efficiently before and during the vacation. He is a fist rate representative of Lion King providing unparalleled service
Our tour guide was Jackson. Similarly Jackson was a perfect guide. He is thoughtful highly knowledgeable about the birds, animals and geology of the area. He was always on point to answer any of our queries no matter how trivial. Furthermore I still can’t believe how he would drive so safely through difficult roads while simultaneously being able to spot birds and animals hundreds of yards away. Jackson was a great guide for us, super reliable from start to finish. I cannot recommend him highly enough
Lion King were great to work with. Phenomenally high standards of service from back office through to guides. I’m limited to a 5 star review but would have gone higher if allowed

A magical safari
Impeccable organization with our guide Amani who accompanied us throughout this safari in excellent conditions. His availability, his kindness and his professionalism allowed us this exploration in the best conditions. The hotels and camp chosen by Lion King were perfect. We are already nostalgic for this fabulous trip...

An operator that delivers on its promises
I can say that I contacted at least 15 tour operators. I spoke with all of them, asked for quotes, requested changes, compared quotes, and checked what was included.
Lion King ended up offering quality at an acceptable price. And they were always available to change the tour and hotels according to all my requests.
In our case, we did a 5-day safari, and we always had the same driver (Murshid). We were a group of 4 people, and the price was €1334 per person. It ends up being a high price, but it could cost more; we always stayed in good accommodations, and the car is good (everyone uses the same model).
I don't think I would change anything about our safari. We managed to see the Big Five. We didn't have any incidents. Everything went smoothly!
In the end, thank you, Lion King and Murshid, for this adventure!

Go with Lion King
Communication from the beginning was excellent, they updated us about changes and were even checking in to be sure we had Visas. They gave us a final itinerary and the travel in country matched this exactly. Everything was also on time! I thought the value of the food (there was SO much) and lodging was excellent. We always had water without having to worry, they even brought wine and beer for us on safari!
The safari itself was beyond amazing. We did 4 days and thought that was perfect. We did a lot of driving but were in excellent hands with our safari guide, Tembe. Would rebook with him or recommend to anyone going on safari! He always kept us updated on the plan and where the next washroom stop would be. The roads are rough but his driving skills were excellent and safe for these conditions.
We saw so many animals and our guide Tembe was able to find animals I didn’t even know were there until he pointed them out. He was able to take a side road and track down a cheetah for us to see, that hopped on the back of the car! He was knowledgeable about the roads of the parks, shared incredible knowledge of the wildlife as well as ecosystem and country culture. We were so appreciative for this and learned a lot. Also for the safety, attention, patience, and kindness showed by all the lion king staff!
Also, the driver who picked us from the airport, Justin was very kind and also shared knowledge about the country culture and personal details. Would highly recommend. He was the first person we met in country and offered a warm kind welcome!
Thank you lion king, Justin and Tembe

Breathtaking must see adventure
Wow, just wow! Our experience with Lion King was amazing from beginning to end. The staff was patient and responsive from the beginning, even with flight delays and unexpected world events. They were able to accommodate the dates and logistics with our Kili climb. When Justin picked us up late at night from the airport, his warmth and welcome helped me know we were in the right place.
Our guide Temba was the star of the safari. He was expedient and very knowledgeable. He helped us find all the game we hoped to see, leopards, cheetahs, lions. He was very helpful with my photography goals. Temba also share a lot about the local and Masai cultures that we loved learning about. Truly appreciated what he brought to the trip.
The accommodations were stunning. We camped in luxurious tents in the Serengeti and got to hear the hippos singing at night. We visited a Masai village and ended with a stay at the Escarpment lodge with a breathtaking view of sunset over Lake Manayara. If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate, this is the company to book with.

Best Holiday Ever!
We had a fantastic 10-day Tanzania Safari tour with our guide, Musa. We're a family travelling with two teenagers, and the teens have rated it the "best holiday ever"! Musa was friendly, knowledgeable and patiently answered all the questions our wildlife fanatics threw at him. He worked hard to ensure we saw all our favourites. The food and accommodation were also outstanding. Highly recommend!

Ozzy & Gilbert, knowledgeable, fun, easy to get along with, the perfect guides!
Planning a trip for 9, with a wide variety of interests is never easy. From working with Marie to plan the adventure, Nickson for all the arrangements, meeting Justin & Charles for transfers, and Ozzy & Gilbert as our guides, it was the perfect trip. There was never a glitch in the whole process. Our accommodations were top notch, food amazing, we saw all the big 5, they made accommodations for us to visit an area normally not on tours, absolutely all was perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend Lion King Adventures to any who ask. Thank you all!
