extremely responsive and helpful..
Very good value for money. Our guide Raymond was extremely knowledgeable and his ability to spot animals was amazing and he ensured we saw the big five and the river crossing . He was one of the best among most of the tours we have done. Rose was amazing in helping us navigate the logistics and was extremely responsive. The lodges, the baloon ride was all top notch. Was truly a memorable experience with Januz

Unforgettable Safari in Tanzania with the best guide
Our safari in Tanzania was simply unforgettable! We were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five, and every single moment with the animals was really special. That’s something we will always remember.
A big thank you to our guide Salehe Mkwanda. He knows so much about the animals and nature, and always managed to find the best spots. He also made sure we had nice places for lunch and that toilet stops were clean, which is really important during a safari.
The food was also good: in the hotels there was always some choice, and the lunch boxes on the tour were actually much better than we expected.
The whole organization was great too. The accommodations, the schedule – everything worked perfectly and we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
We are so happy we did this safari – perfectly organized, amazing experiences, and with Salehe Mkwanda as our guide it was something really special. Highly recommended! 🌍🦁🐘

THE BEST TOUR OPERATOR IN TANZANIA
I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH WORDS in my vocabulary to explain how cool was our experience with Lion King Adventure. Our guide HASSAN is simply the best, SO smart, he speaks English and German and knows perfectly the wild, he took us right in front of the LEOPARD, prepared the best lunches in the world, so fun to be around and he has incredible stories about the animals/ history/ culture etc. Also a big round of applause for the office Godwin & team, incredibly professional at organizing the whole trip. This paragraph is not sufficient to cover how amazing this trip was. Truly once in a lifetime adventure. This was the first time we truly felt what AFRICA is and having a good guide is essential, you stay all day in the safari car together and Hassan made all these days a magical adventure.
Thank you Hassan, Godwin and LION KING ADVENTURES.

Excellent and professionall organized.
The organization of the trip was truly top-notch. Our guide, Katuku, picked us up from the airport at night, even though he had to wait two hours. He was professional on the safari and found the Big Five in Mikumi Park on the first day. He's also a very good driver – Robert Kubica and Colin McRae rolled into one. It's clear he knows safari like no other. We went on a four-day safari in Mikumi and Nyerere Parks. It was very intense. The accommodations were excellent. We can recommend Loitours and Safari as a very professional company. If I were to go on safari in the future, I would definitely go with Louitours. Thank You Katuku and Louitouris.

A once in a lifetime experience
I don't know where to start with this review, right from my very first interaction with Patricia from Serengeti Smile I felt in safe hands. I already had an idea of where I wanted to go within Tanzania, so Patricia was able to plan around my requirements. She was very accomodating, replying very promptly over WhatsApp and having a lot of patience whilst planning the trip.
Payment was made via bank transfer which I was unsure about first but Patricia reassured me and also gave the option of paying via credit card for a small extra fee.
When we landed in Tanzania, the smoothness of the interactions continued, we were picked up by a driver and taken to our accomodation. We flew out to Kogatende the next morning where our Safari adventure began.
This is where James, our incredible Safari guide comes in. He had a very straight forward no nonsense attitude and was always extremely punctual. He knew absolutely every animal or tree we encountered, and I mean EVERY one, and was able to show us in his book which animal it was so we could read further. He answered all of our questions along the way and even taught us some Swahili which came in handy for the rest of our trip!
With his knowledge and experience he gave some advice about potentially tweaking our itinerary and checking out Central Serengeti instead of spending more nights in the North. I was able to speak with Patricia and as always she accomodated and made the arrangement to move some of our nights to another camp. This change proved vital as we were able to see the Great migration in the North, then see more variety of different animals and quantity of lions for example in Central as it is more game rich.
Our final stop was the Ngorongoro Crater, and because of James' suggestion we were able to spend more time in the crater and due to his experience of listening and communicating on the radio we were able to locate and spot not one, not two but five rhinos! This final sighting ticked off all of the big 5 for us, James put in a lot of effort to ensure we saw each of the big 5 and not just once but many times in some cases.
I am extremely grateful to James and Patricia for making our Safari a truly once in a lifetime trip. I would thoroughly recommend Serengeti Smile to anyone looking to experience a Safari. You will be in safe hands.

They were a perfect tour operator .
The agency was excellent, the biggest pro is that you can personalize your whole trip and how available the staff is. We were able to plan together the safari we dreamed of with very specific characteristics thanks to our safari planner. Once we arrived they picked us up and everything went wonderfully. Both in Zanzibar and during the safari all the lodges were exactly what we asked for, and our guides were very knowledgeable and made our experience unforgettable. We suggest Tanzania Explorer to all future traveller!!
