Reviews
Best Tour Operator and Best Guide is Enock!!
If you want to go to Africa on Safari, I highly recommend Lion King Adventures! We had an amazing experience, from pick up to drop off. Everything was top notch! I suggest the Luxury Safari that's all inclusive. All the food was wonderful, packed lunches on the Serengeti. Had a wonderful time. Ask for Enock as your guide. He is the BEST!!

Humble, kind, knowledgable.
Where to begin? My daughter and I embarked on a safari to celebrate my 60th and her 18th birthday, it could not have been a better experience thanks to our wonderful guide, Geofrey. He was a complete expert on the various national parks we visited as well as on the abundance of wildlife within them thanks to growing up in the Serengeti himself. We both learned more than we could even contain in our heads from Geofrey and were able to see the “Big 5” thanks to his concentrated effort to spot even the smallest animals (such as banded mongooses) and his lifelong knowledge on animal behaviour.
As well as Geofrey’s impressive expertise on the wildlife, he made our entire 5 day safari experience even more unforgettable due to his kindness and humour, managing to make even the scariest animal sightings (like those of hippos, my daughters most-feared animal) a lighthearted experience.
All in all we were genuinely heartbroken to have to say goodbye to Geofrey after learning so much about each other during our 5 full-on days of bonding, hugs were exchanged as we said our farewells. I cannot recommend the Lion King Safari experience more, the only complaint from my daughter and I is that it had to end! The vehicles are comfortable and the lunches are filling and tasty, and even better, if you’re lucky you’ll get a guide as amazing as Geofrey!

An unforgettable experience thanks to Lion King and Khalifa
We have just finished an incredible safari thanks to our guide Khalifa Mohammed.
Khalifa was an excellent guide with great English and knowledge of the wildlife so he could easily answer all of our questions. He took great care of us over the four days and we were lucky enough to see the big 5 plus many more animals during the trip. Even when some areas were busy with lots of jeeps, Khalifa made sure we were able to see some of the more rare animals like a cheetah and a leopard. We recommend requesting Khalifa for your safari for an excellent experience.
Everything was taken care of from start to finish. The accommodation was always welcoming and comfortable. We recommend the Land of Nature lodges in the Serengeti for an unforgettable experience. Overall the trip is great value for money and we would 100% recommend to anyone.

Trip of a lifetime
Lion King was amazing! They put together the perfect itenerary for our family and always answered any questions immediately during the planning phase. From the time we landed at the airport until they took us back, our guide literally did everything and we could really relax and take in the entire experience with no worry, and let me say the safari was unbelievable. Life changing. The absolute best!

The smoothest safari experience! With the amazing Leonard!
We had an amazing safari experience and couldn’t have asked for a better tour. We were fortunate enough to see all of the Big Five (even a whole Lion pride and the Leopard posing in the tree for us) and every day was well organized and memorable. A special thank you to our driver, Leonard, whose knowledge, professionalism, driving skills and incredible ability to spot wildlife made all the difference. He was friendly, patient, and always made sure we had the best possible views while respecting the animals. I highly recommend this tour operator, and if you have the chance, ask for Leonard—you’ll be in excellent hands!

Excellent services from start to finish.
From the very first email to the final goodbye, Lion King delivered an absolutely flawless experience. Every detail was perfectly organised, and the level of professionalism exceeded all our expectations.
A huge thank you to Jovitha and Florida, who looked after our booking from the office. They were always friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. A special mention goes to Florida, whose expertise in designing our 8-day safari itinerary was exceptional. Every day was perfectly balanced, with the right amount of game drives, travel time, and relaxation. The route through Tanzania's national parks was planned brilliantly, allowing us to experience an incredible variety of wildlife and landscapes without ever feeling rushed. It was obvious that every detail had been carefully thought through to maximise our experience.
The real star of our safari, however, was our guide Benjamin. He is, without question, the best safari guide and driver we could have hoped for. His knowledge of wildlife, birds, nature, and local culture was extraordinary, and his ability to spot animals from astonishing distances was simply unbelievable. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five and countless other incredible animals.
Benjamin always positioned the vehicle perfectly for photographs, patiently gave everyone time to enjoy every sighting, and never rushed us. His driving skills were outstanding, even on the roughest tracks, and we felt completely safe throughout the entire trip. His enthusiasm, sense of humour, professionalism, and genuine passion for Tanzania's wildlife made every game drive exciting and unforgettable.
Every lodge, every meal, every game drive, and every single detail exceeded our expectations. This wasn't just a holiday—it was truly the trip of a lifetime.
Thank you, Jovitha, Florida, Benjamin, and the entire Lion King team for creating memories we'll treasure forever. We can't wait to come back.

An Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari with Lion King Adventures!
We booked a tailored six-day safari directly through Lion King Adventures to celebrate our honeymoon. Florida was fantastic in helping us plan the itinerary—including a lovely leisure day—and made sure we secured the exact accommodation we wanted.
Our private safari was guided by Goodluck, who truly made the experience exceptional. He was incredibly welcoming, wonderfully informative, and had eyes like an eagle for spotting wildlife. Goodluck always knew the best locations and was an exceptionally safe driver who showed immense respect for the animals. A real highlight was the early evening drives; as the parks quieted down, Goodluck would position us perfectly to watch the animals against the backdrop of stunning sunsets. We were lucky enough to see the Big 5 and a variety of other amazing animals.
The picnic lunches in the Serengeti were fantastic, and the safari vehicle was stocked with an excellent selection of food and drinks, including chilled beer, wine, and soft drinks. The modern truck was extremely comfortable and equipped with a fridge to keep everything fresh. To top it off, both Lion King Adventures and all the lodges went out of their way to add thoughtful honeymoon touches, making the trip even more unforgettable.
We highly recommend booking through Lion King Adventures—the entire end-to-end process was effortless.
If you can, ask for Goodluck as your guide; he will truly ensure you get the very best out of your safari. Thank you again to Goodluck, we had the best 6 days with a fantastic guide who feels like a good friend! We already miss the ‘African massages’ from the truck on the road to the parks.
We're already looking forward to planning our next Tanzanian adventure with them!
