Expensive, but guaranteed carefree travel were it's easy to enjoy the spectacular nature!
We decided on Lion King adventures according to the good reviews online and as soon as we were picked up from the airport we knew we had made the right decision. Booking was easy, we were given adequate information and our emails were fast responded. We were hesitant at first as the price is very high and we had to pay everything beforehand, but once the safari started everything went as planned. We felt safe during our entire safari, things ran smooth and we did not have to take care of anything. All meals were very delicious and cold beer, coca-cola, water and even wine was served during our safari. All accommodations were high end, with swimming pools, helpful personnel and clean rooms with comfortable beds and mosquito nets when needed. There was plenty of food, fruits, snacks and drinks served at all times. Our quide Mwita spoke perfect English and had such knowledge on animals, culture and politics. He was very considerate and we had mutual respect towards each other. We were able to see spectacular nature and animals, and really felt Mwita was willing to go that extra mile for us. We would definitely recommend this company to others! Thank you Mwita!

Once in a life time safari experience
I would thoroughly recommend our experience with Lion King Adventures to anyone looking to safari in Tanzania, they were truly excellent!
From our very first contact with Pendo to help us choose our accommodation through to Anna arranging our final logistics and our guide Saleh who was AMAZING!!
The team are very knowledgeable and helpful in adapting their packages to suit you, we preferred to stay in lodges and hotels rather than the tented camps and every property recommended to us was truly incredible!
Though our 5 days we saw so much thanks to Saleh and his great eye at spotting animals and getting us in the perfect location for so many incredible photos.
He was a joy to spend 5 days with and share this experience with us.
We couldn't have dreamed we would see so many animals in their natural habitat.
Thank you Lion King Adventures for making the safari part of our Tanzanian adventure so unbelievably special!

Great Professional and Friendly!
Even before we decided to book our safari from Lion King, they shared many information and they were helpful. Their pre-departure document is a plus.
All reservation process was smooth and all of our special requests were covered (like early check-in at our first day because of our flight schedule).
During the trip, we were with Abou (Aboubakar) who is an amazing guy. He tried his best to make us comfortable, gave a lot of information about wildlife and put a lot of effort to let us see all of the animals.
After our trip, we went to company's office to have a short survey with their another staff which made us feel that we made the right choice to make our honeymoon safari with Lion King Adventures.
Thanks to Abou and everyone involved, we had a great start to our honeymoon there in Tanzania!

Best trip ever!
I can honestly say that this was the trip of a life time. I have travelled all over the world and done and seen some amazing things, but this was so different. The luxury tented lodges were outstanding with attention to detail that is rarely seen. For instance we had our beds warmed up with hot water bottles which was a really nice and thoughtful touch. Our Lion King adventures safari guide, Good Luck, was helpful, polite, unbelievably knowledgeable, flexible, funny, and just very easy to get along with. He adjusted our schedule to suit our needs keeping in ind that we wanted to see as many animals as possible, while stil, taking some time to relax! He was simply the Best! The food during our trip was also extraordinary. Everything was just perfect! We loved every minute!!

We had a fantastic 5 days safari booked with Lion King Adventures and everything worked out perfect!
Booking with Lion King Adventures went very smothly and they lived up to our expectations al the way. All the accommodations also lived up to their standards, very clean, good food and friendly.
My favorite was Serengeti and the Heritage tent camp, with it's view.
Our safari guide Gilbert did his very best to get close and did not give up before we had spoted all the animals to see : ) Gilbert made us also feel safe during the way.

Best Safari Experience
From the Start Lion King Adventures showed their high standard by answering fast and accurate on all email communication. We choose a 6 days Mid-range safari covering Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Manyara. All accommodations from lodges to tented camps were very good, sometimes better than we expected. As we were 5 persons we had a jeep to ourselves. Our driver/guide Gilbert did his utmost to give us the safari experience of our life, being extremely good on spotting animals and knowing where to go in the parks. He took us safely between the parks, and did not take any unnecessary risks in the traffic, as we saw other drivers do. He was always very correct and easy to be around. Thank you Gilbert! The best park was Serengeti! We found ourselves in the middle of the migration which was a big bonus and we saw the big five and many, many Lions, one big experience was a cheetah jumping up on our car, talk about close encounter. We had high expectations when choosing this Safari, Lion King delivered all the way, I can really recommend Lion King Adventures!

Adventure of a lifetime
We loved our driver, saw all the animals we came to Africa to see, and had the most memorable experience. Our driver was very knowledgeable about the zoology of all the animals and the history of the Serengeti. The only thing I would have changed about our trip is signing up for a 5 or 6 day safari versus the full 8 day safari. We saw 80% of what we wanted to see on the very first day, so 8 days wasn't necessary.

Awesome Experience
We really enjoyed our experience with Lion King Adventures! Our guide was accommodating, knowledgeable on the plants and animals that we saw, and was friendly. He helped to make our experience so great.
The communication was awesome. From the time we booked the safari, to before and after we arrived, everything was clear and they were easy to work with and reach out to.
I couldn’t recommend Lion King more. 10/10!

Lion King provided an excellent trip!
Our safari with Lion King in northern Tanzania was excellent!
We loved the people and the incredible Serengeti and Tanzanian scenery, and most of all, the animals. Lions! and elephants! and giraffes! and hippos! and water buffalo! The ever present tail-wagging gazelles, zebras, baboons, monkeys, crocodiles. Amazing birds. The wildebeest migration. Holy cow!
Our Lion King guide, Salehe Kimosa, was both professional and very entertaining, and personable. He knew where to find all the animals, and brought us as close as could be without disturbing them. He also was a wealth of regional information, and his english was excellent.
Our chef, Karim, prepared great meals, both Tanzanian and western, every day.
Also, maybe less noticeable, but very, very important, the logistics provided by the Lion King staff were impeccable. Arranging for airport pickup, all transfers prepaid, all park fees taken care of. The hotels were quite good.
This was a great trip, and we can't praise Lion King enough.

Fantastic Safari Honeymoon Adventure
We had a fabulous honeymoon safari with Lion King Adventures. From the personal visit from the company owner on the first day to the hospitality of our excellent guide Goodluck (who lived up to his name), our trip couldn't have been better. The hotels chosen for us were amazing, going to sleep in a luxury tent to the sound of lions roaring and being woken up to elephants really gave you the feel of being in nature. Goodluck made the trip, he made sure we saw everything we wanted, even driving an hour to see a leopard up close because we hadn't seen one yet, and yes we saw the big five, even the Rhino. We would recommend Lion King to everyone.
