Trip of a lifetime! We CANNOT WAIT to go back to Kenya!
Kenya absolutely blew my our minds! We stayed at Governors Camp Masai Mara for 3 nights and did safari every single day we were there. Masai Mara is like heaven on earth—elephants, giraffes and zebras everywhere! We saw an entire pride of lions, lions mating, a leopard AND THE FAMOUS WILDEBEEST CROSSING ON MARA RIVER. Plus, we visited a Masai tribe which is something you definitely don't want to miss out on, it was so fun and very eye opening. All the Kenyans we met were extremely helpful and friendly and there wasn't a single time we felt unsafe on our entire trip. While staying in Nairobi at the beginning and end of our trip, we visited the Archive Museum and the National Museum of Kenya & Snake Park. Both were very interesting. After Masai we went to Lake Nakuru for a day safari where we saw rhinos—tons! Like 10 at one time. The safari at Nakuru was nice but not even close to the experience of Masai Mara (where you can go more off road). Also, depending on the time of year expect beautiful weather! It was warm during the day and cold at night—perfect. Overall Kenya is an amazing beautiful country, just book your trip! We ended up booking via Joseph at Wildlife Safari and everything was amazing from start to finish.

Absolutely wonderful people and beautiful county!
We did the 3 day safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club going to Tarangire and Ngorongoro and staying at the Kitela Lodge. The whole experience was fantastic. Rajab was really helpful throughout the booking process and answered our many questions promptly and well.
Tarangire was brilliant but Ngorongoro is something else - an incredible place. Our guide was Emmanuel and he led us through the safari brilliantly, and with his help we did manage to see the big 5! He was really friendly and helpful throughout the trip and even organised a taxi for us for when we landed in Zanzibar for the second part if our holiday, which was going above and beyond.
The Kitela Lodge was a magnificent place to stay. Our own beautiful thatched cottage, absolute luxury after a day in the heat, and brilliant food.
Tanzania and its people has captured our hearts!

Oliver is wonderful, caring, funny, knowledgeable, and trustworthy.
A combination of the tour guides, porters, cooks, and other hikers made this an unforgettable experience. They are trustworthy. When spending 6 days on a mountain hiking without running water, you’re bound to have some low moments. For me it was at the peak, the high altitude was difficult to manage. Thankfully the guides were by my side supporting me. Nanyaro and Oliver always checked in to make sure I was feeling okay and had such positive spirits. I’m so grateful for them. Everything about the experience was better because of the amazing crew.

Absolutely incredible, our tour operator was so quick to respond and wildly accommodating.
If I could give them ten stars, I would. My friend and I did the five day, four night tour to Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara. By the end of our trip, we were in tears having to say goodbye to our guide, John. He was the kindest, friendliest, and all around best tour guide I’ve ever had (and Ive traveled a lot.) The accommodations were amazing, at each location there was a steward waiting for us with fresh juice, and I don’t think I carried my bag once. The game drives were absolutely mind boggling, we saw the big 5, and by the end of the trip we were having to pick specific things we wanted to see. We had close encounters with elephants, cheetahs, and lions but never once felt unsafe. I cannot say enough good things!! I will absolutely be using them again.

Knowledgeable, very engaging and fun.
Just starting from the communications it was top class, they keep you informed. Our pickup was on time and we found everything well taken care of beyond our expectations judging from previous tours. The tour guide was amazing, very knowledgeable, engaging, interactive tour indeed. Had an opportunity to see some animals up close and our tour guide always took appropriate measures to ensure our security. I would recommend everyone to use this service, you would appreciate the value for money.

Best experience in Kenya
Affordable prices, good quality of accommodation, if one person participates, there is no need to share a tent with strangers, the driver is professional, and it is very enjoyable to see many animals (the only animal not seen should be a rhinoceros)

Greatest Experience of a lifetime
I went with a group of 8 people. George was our guide for 9 full days. Everything was planned for 4 full safari days in Tanzania and volunteering at The Zakari School. The accommodation and food were excellent. The volunteering was such a fabulous heartwarming experience. George and Hillary even had a talk with the kids about being a guide and gave them a ride in the safari trucks.
George and Hillary each have 20 years of experience, and they are very knowledgeable, informative, and funny. I always felt safe, and they know the Serengeti so well. Being on safari with such great guides made the experience one in which I was in awe of each and every day. I hope to come back again; and I would contact George to be our guide.

Amazing safari with amazing guide
Our entire experience with Lion King was great: from the booking to travel planning and most importantly, the safari itself.
Nickson helped us book a trip that fit our schedule and budget. Pendo then helped us with all of the planning, so that we felt prepared and everything went smoothly, even as our travel plans changed. When we arrived in Arusha, we were greeted at the airport and had a great introduction to Tanzania right away as we were driven to our hotel.
Our safari was excellent! The meals were great and they even made sure to arrange great gluten free options. Accommodations were lovely and clean, with friendly, welcoming staff.
What truly made the experience memorable was our safari guide Immanuel! He is clearly very knowledgeable about and passionate for the animals and the environment - this allowed us to learn a lot about what we were seeing (like animal behavior / characteristics and local plants) and share our excitement with him after each animal spotting! This also helped us to see a lot of animals, even those we may have otherwise missed. He is also very friendly and was a fun companion on the trip - we laughed and learned a lot! Finally, he was professional (always on time), we always felt safe, and he made sure the car was always clean with fresh cold drinks always stocked. We had a great time with Immanuel and highly recommend him as a guide!
Overall, we had an amazing time with Lion King Adventures and will be recommending them to family and friends wishing to visit Tanzania!
