Fantastic
Our safari trip with Lion King was amazing! Coming from California, I was worried about the logistics but everything was taken care of! We were picked up in Kilimanjaro and taken to our 1st accommodation in Arusha. In day 2, our lovely guide Yuself picked us up and we were off to a fabulous 5 day safari trip of a lifetime! He made sure we were taken care of! We were spoiled beyond belief! Imagine warm picnic lunches in the Serengeti, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, served on a table cloth and wine! We saw thousands of animals. It was so dreamy. And all the accommodations were amazing! If you’re thinking about a safari trip, do it! Don’t wait- life is too short! Pick Lion King, everything will be taken care of! We ended our trip with an amazing 4 night stay in Zanzibar, Stone Town is a must see and the water at the beach is the most beautiful shade of turquoise, and so warm. Thank you Lion King for making my dream come true!

trip of a lifetime
We traveled with Huruma as our guide and it was a life-changing experience. The staff, the food, the tour, everything was top-notch. We saw so many animals, the history, the biology, all of it was so fascinating. Huruma went above and beyond with driving to see a pride of lions, keeping us safe, getting great photos, seeing rhino sightings, the wildebeest migration. I wish we could stay forever, Tanzania was a magical place beyond description. Huruma was so professional, kind, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and energetic.
The food and lodging were nicer than any hotels in the US, it was truly incredible.
Lion King was communicative, clear, and very informative. Our stay in Zanzibar was great as well.
I would recommend Lion King to anyone and everyone!

Fantastic Tanzania
We embarked on our 9 day safari starting in Tarangire, where we were treated to hundreds of Elephant and Giraffe experiences. Even saw 6 lions, ( 2 on a night safari) which were snarling and flashing us their teeth. Ndutu was next with thousands of Zebra and Wildebeest. Balloon ride was the trip highlight. Serengeti revealed, Lions, Cheetahs, Leopard. Ngorogoro was like a set from Jurassic park, hundreds/thousands of different animals. This was a once in a lifetime trip and surpassed our expectations. Ozzy and Gilbert, our guides, were more than accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. Extremely knowledgable and made the trip so much fun. Safari vehicles were always clean and well stocked with drinks and some snacks. Accommodations were fantastic.
Can't say enough about Lion King and our guides. Highly recommend this company. Overall we saw 73 different species of animals and birds.
We were in Tanzania and Zanzibar for a total of 21 days and Lion King organized our whole 3 weeks. It went off without a hitch. Thanks to all involved.

Amazing trip in Tanzania
Thanks to Lionking adventures for arranging a honeymoon trip for us, and especially for Benjamin, a warm, friendly and professional guide! We are especially careful and try our best to find animals, so that we can produce so many amazing photos just through mobile phones. We have seen the Big Five , including the extremely rare wild black rhinos. At the same time, thanks to the reasonable itinerary arranged by Lionking adventures, we can see so many animals. The most Later, I felt that the staff of Nyota camp let my wife spend an unforgettable birthday, I felt the enthusiasm of the African people. , I hope I can do it again and come to this land and participate in the adventure activities organized by Lionking adventures again!

Unforgettable memories
Our Game Drive in Tanzania was unforgettable, thanks to our guide, David. Always punctual and welcoming, he amazed us with his wildlife expertise, spotting animals effortlessly. Each day, he ensured our comfort by meticulously cleaning the vehicle, creating a pristine environment for our adventure.
David’s passion for conservation and storytelling brought the safari to life, making it both educational and thrilling. His professionalism and dedication made our experience truly exceptional. We highly recommend Lion King and David for an incredible Game Drive in Tanzania!

Incredible safari
Great agency. Fulfilled our every wish. We were able to make suggestions ourselves and the driver fulfilled our every wish. Everything was very uncomplicated and we can only recommend it. If we go on safari again then only with Lion King Adventures.

Outstanding!
7 day Luxury All Inclusive Epic Safari- the tour couldn’t be more accurate in description.
Tanzania was a wonderful place with such happy and friendly people everywhere. People smile all the time and every greeting was such a joy.
We visited 4 parks- each with completely different geography and wildlife.
The highlight of our trip was without question having the privilege of Shafino being our guide for our safari. He had such amazing and detailed knowledge of not only the animals, but also the areas history, the plants and had a great sense of humour.
Nothing was ever too much trouble for Shafino- he was totally relaxed to let us decide what to do- with his guidance on how to get the best out of each day. Early starts gave the best views of waking animals- Shafino was always on time ready and eager for our day to start.
Shafino had such a wonderful personality- he’s clearly very well respected by all the lodges we stayed in.
Shafino would go out of his way to make sure we were taking the best possible photos, always doing his utmost to get us to the animal sightings as quickly but as safely as possible.
In short- this tour has been utterly memorable, and we cannot thank our new friend Shafino and Lion King Adventures enough. It was simply a stunning week

Amazing safari experience with the BEST guide Haruni
We had a wonderful experience on safari with Lion King adventures and with our guide Haruni! From start to finish we felt taken care of and every place we stayed was very nice, had excellent food and plenty of clean water. We really enjoyed our guide who went above and beyond to be sure we saw SO many animals and had fun too. I would love to come back and do another safari with him again. Our jeep was also great and had multiple outlets for all different kinds of plugs (US/European, etc) for us to charge our phones which was a nice bonus. Would definitely book again with Lion King Adventures.

Impeccable organization, attentive to all our expectations.
An unforgettable stay in Tanzania! A six-day safari through the great parks, where we were thrilled by the sight of magnificent landscapes and animals that can usually only be seen in cages. Lion King Adventures had organized this to perfection, and we can't praise their professionalism enough. Vehicle, accommodation and food were impeccable. Our guide, Isaya, made us fall in love with his country and its people, and was always available, kind and attentive to our wishes.

Lion King Adventures went above and beyond
We were really impressed with Lion King Adventures for our Tanzania safari. When we talked with Pendo on the phone ahead of time it was clear that Lion King was really organized and well prepared.
Our guide, Joseph, was amazing. He was great at spotting the animals, and always seemed to know just where to drive to be best positioned to see them up close. We had so many questions about the animal behavior and he always knew the answers. He was really friendly and chill. He also helped us learn a lot about Tanzanian culture.
Multiple times Lion King adventures went above and beyond to make our safari experience smooth and extraordinary. I can't even name them all - but for example my dad left his passport in the airport transfer vehicle when he arrived into the first hotel around midnight. We called Lion King and by 8am the next morning his passport was waiting for him when we met our guide. One other great thing about our experience was that there was no limit on the miles you can drive. One day in the Serengeti we went on an 11-hour game drive! We ate breakfast while watching lions and lunch while watching a cheetah. One of the best days of my life.
The accommodations were all fantastic. What counts as "mid-range" in Tanzania was actually really luxurious. The hotel workers and the Masai we met were so welcoming. The food was really good.
We went to Tarangire - a great intro park with a unique landscape full of baobabs. Central Serengeti - the Africa I've always dreamed of with truly phenomenal wildlife. Ndutu - an amazing area in the South Serengeti and where the Great Migration was in February. Ngorongoro Crater - you've got to see it to believe it. And Lake Manyara - a surprise favorite with a beautiful forest, elephants and baboons galore, and we went on an excellent walking safari with a park ranger where we got lucky and saw some elephants drinking at the river.
We were truly blown away by how many animals we saw, the diversity of animals, and how up close we could get to them. Tanzania is a paradise on earth. I highly recommend Lion King Adventures if you're going.
