Exceptional Safari Experience
Our experience with Lion King was truly exceptional and exceeded our expectations by far. The whole process was very smooth and everyone at Lion King was so helpful! From James who patiently helped us put together the perfect route, to Rose who helped with our many questions, to Meshack who picked us up at the airport in Arusha to our guide Salehe.
On our five day journey with Salehe, my husband and I had a fantastic experience on our honeymoon. Salehe is a very experienced guide and driver. He made us feel so comfortable, remembering every detail and was able to show us around beautiful Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Central Serengeti. Every day, Salehe discussed with us the planned itinerary and was flexible enough for any requests. The jeep was always clean and prepared with water and drinks. The lunch was one of the daily highlights - Salehe made sure that we always had the best experience (at a picnic site or in the car next to lions). In just five days, we saw the Big 5 and so much more! We can strongly recommend Lion King Adventures and we hope to do a safari with you soon again! Asante sana!

It can't be any better!
Wow, just wow! This company is truly amazing. Founded by a local Tanzanian whose first concern is customer satisfaction. Cars? Perfectly maintained. We saw many other cars break down on the road. Often our tour guide Salehe had to help out as he had the best equipment and skills of all of them. Service? Salehe took care of us every second of the day. He fulfilled all our wishes and didn't forget anything we asked for. Example: I asked him to see a particular tree. One day later he stopped at it and said Michi this is the tree! Even I forgot it at that time. Food? Freshly cooked and more than we could have eaten. Salehe gave the leftovers to local workers. Game drive? Salehe saw animals with his naked eyes that I barely saw with binoculars.
All in all it was worth every penny. Thank you to the whole Lion King Adventures team for making that Safari so exceptional for my wife an me. We had very high expectations and you managed to exceed them! Five stars are not enough for you guys!

Highly recommended!
When we decided to do a safari in Tanzania, we compared many agencies and selected Lion King for their rapidity when answering, their flexibility, the quality of the information provided and the good value price. Pendo arranged everything for us and she made sure the trip will answer our needs and expectations.
We decided to do a 5-day private safari exploring Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Manyara. Our guide, Fred Elias, knows the savanna like no one else. He stops exactly at the right spot for us to observe the animals, he provides a lot of information about every animal and, most of all, he is passionate and enjoys his job. Apart from being conscientious, he is a funny, caring and welcoming person. If you go on a safari with him, it is guaranteed that you will have a good time.
Then, the quality of the services were worth the price: the lodges selected were above our expectations, the food was great (they make sure you don’t have any food intolerance) and they arrange everything as you wish.
Plus, the car was comfortable and spacious enough for us to walk around and see the best of all animals.
Thanks again Lion King, Pendo and Fred for the amazing memories. It was a wonderful experience!!

Best safari of a lifetime with Abu and Lion King Adventures
From start to finish an absolutely outstanding service. Booking and organising the trip from home could not have been made any easier by Anna and the team. We experienced severe delays to our flight but the Lion King Adventure team reassured us, contactable at all times to answer any questions, and were ready and waiting for us when our plane finally arrived.
Our safari guide was Abu, he was not just incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable allowing us to see every animal we requested in some amazing landscapes, but also an incredibly kind and funny man that made an already wonderful experience even better!
We could not recommend Lion King Adventures and Abu anymore. Brilliant company and brilliant people. We can’t wait to come back one day!

Best Vacation of Our Lives
My husband and I started our honeymoon in Tanzania with a safari provided by lion king adventures. The experience was magical in every way. This was hands down the best vacation experience we have ever had and we travel frequently and all over. We saw thousands of animals including but limited cheetahs, leopards, lions, giraffes, elephants, and even rhinos. The safari was highly organized and stream line. Every team member was pleasant to work with. And the luxury hotels are to die for, each better than the last. The photos do not do it justice. I would highly recommend a Tanzania safari and to book it with lion king adventures to ensure quality!

One of the most amazing vacations with the best guide.
What an amazing experience. Having been to over 38 countries and dozens of amazing excursions I have to say this was our #1 trip this far! David our tour guide made it even better. We were fortunate to see 4 cheetahs, 9 baby cub lions, dozens on lions, dozens of elephants, giraffes, and so much more wildlife. The places we stayed at were incredible! Go luxury! It might be more expensive but I can say it is 110% with the extra money! You won’t experience a hotel like this anywhere else! It is something spectacular! The food, the people, the level of service is unheard of. Thank you so much lion king for making this trip for my wife and I so special! We will be back!

The BEST experience!
Lion King was amazing from the very first correspondence until we were dropped off at the end. The driver who picked us up at the airport, Bright, was wonderful, as were the accommodations, food and drinks provided, and safari vehicle. However, what really made our trip spectacular was our guide, Richard. He was energetic, polite, professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable and happy to talk about everything from wildlife to Tanzanian politics and culture. He was also a very safe and smooth driver. To sum up Lion King in one event: One morning we located a single lion and followed it until we were able to have a front row seat for two lions killing two wildebeest! We were the ONLY people there during the entire event. This trip was worth every single penny and I would vehemently recommend this company and experience.

Goodluck is wonderful, caring, knowledgeable, kind, and ensured we were safe on our amazing journey.
Thank you to our tour operator Goodluck & Lion King Adventures. This was the best experience of my life. The whole process was smooth and organized to a tee. Goodluck was the best tour guide we could have asked for. The energy he brought day in and day out was contagious and he was one of the most kind human beings I have ever met. He was incredibly knowledgeable and knew all the best places to see all the wild animals you could think of. He truly cared for us and our safety along with our experience. I couldn’t be more thankful to meet such a wonderful man and tour guide. Thank you again Goodluck and Lion King Adventures. REQUEST FOR GOODLUCK ON YOUR SAFARI!! You will not regret it.

An unforgettable experience
We booked the safari and beach package with Lion King Adventures for our honeymoon. We would highly recommend using this company. Everything was perfect. The accomadation, the food, the communication with the company before we left was also excellent. Richie our guide was one of the nicest people that you could meet and very knowledgeable about all of the areas and the animals. He was always on time and helped us alot along the way. He even arranged for us to visit a school which was not originally part of our package. If your booking with Lion King Adventures ask for Richie to be your guide! He was amazing! I would also say that it is excellent value for money because you don't need to worry about anything while you are on safari. Everything is looked after, from your permits to enter the park, all of your meals, water and beer available all day. Pendo was also very helpful when we were booking our trip with regular communication. We also got to see all of the animals and some so close that you could almost touch them. Thanks again to Lion King Safaris and especially our guide Richie for an amazing trip! We will remember it for the rest of lives and we would book it again with Lion King Adventures and Richie if we return some time!
