Best Serengeti Safari Tour
We had an experience of a lifetime. The tour was exceptional. Gama and Richard, our tour guides, found us every animal we wanted to see. They were so patient with us and would wait as long as we wanted. They are the best tour guides!!! The jeeps were spacious and came with a bunch of drinks like sodas, beer, and wine. At times we changed our plans in the middle of the day and Gama and Richard were very accommodating. This was the best experience of my life. I would really recommend Lion King and our tour guides!!!

An experience of a lifetime
We met Richard and Gama as our guides and after 10 days of an amazing Safari experience we leave as friends! Their expertise and knowledge of the places we visited allowed us to not only see the Big 5, but way more! They were patient and always allowed us to stay as long as we wanted to get the full experience of the animals. The accomodations and the meals were fantastic as well! We will dedinitely recommend Lion king Safaris for an amazing Tanzanian adventure! Don’t forget to ask for Richard and Gama ;)

Best safari experience ever
Lion king was amazing from planning to all the execution. They were really thorough and detailed in every step. We were a big group of 10 and they made everything so easy and seamless. Our guides were Richard and Gama and it was the best memories of our lifetime. They were very accommodating and made sure we were happy during our entire trip.

Best experience ever!!
We travelled as a group of 3 family friends. Lion King Adventures, and our guides, Richard and Gama, gave us the most exciting and exhilarating experience we have ever had! The trip was very well organized with great food and accommodations. Special shout out to Nyota Luxury Camp for an amazing camp with great food and staff! Richard and Gama were highly experienced and wonderful guides who very quickly became friends with all of us. They were extremely patient and accommodating with all our requests and made sure we got to see all the animals in Serengeti. Lion King Adventures is highly recommended!!

Great!
We had a wonderful experience with Lionking adventures… from the very beginning we had excellent communication: first with Jovitha and then with Rose. They organised an amazing taylor made safari first, and then a wonderful relaxing stay in Zanzibar, including domestic flights and all transfers. Camillus, our guide, is a really nice person, he always took care of us and as my son called him Hawkeye, we could see a lot of animals we would have not be able to see without him! He told us a lot about Tanzania and about the animals.
In the Serengeti we spent three nights in Nyota tented camp: that was something really magic !!✨
I can only recommend to travel with Lionking adventures, a reliable, serious company…they made our Tanzanian experience a real dream!
So thanks to all of the Lionking team, you are great ❤️
Fantastic itinerary was put together for my family
Lion King Adventures was incredible in every possible way. We had a fabulous itinerary and a great guide in Gilberto.
They were helpful every step of the way.
I would recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania and/or Zanzibar.

Super organising team from office till driver where flexibility is king
From the start Lion King Adventures was very cooperative and reactive to present us the 6 day private safari.
The choice of the hotels was just fine; Meru hotel in Arusha was our favourite to start with as a great personal service from the 2 sisters in a beautiful heritage house with pool. From there on our driver Freddy Elias was driving us around for the next 5 days. He was just fantastic and we noticed that he had a lot of experience besides that he was a responsable driver.
Twice we stayed at The Retreat and there Judith and her team took great care of us by serving us drinks and great food around the beautiful swimming pool surrounded by a beautiful garden. In the evening the fireplace in the room was on and a hot water bottle was in our bed…what a service.
The Ngorongoro Crater Lodge was the summum for the unforgettable view and the Nyota campsite who belongs to Lion King was the most natural experience with great food in a beautiful setting for 2 nights. Laurence, Duma and the whole team were serving us like kings and queens. Although the new campsite wasn’t fully finished around the pool it will remain in our memories as a very beautiful place in the wilderness.
We saw the big 5 where the rhino was way to far but lots of animals that where so close to the great Toyota Landcruiser without any danger. The leopard was the biggest surprise as only at 3 m from us eye to eye while entering the road to Ngorongoro Crater Lodge.
We let friendly Freddy go back to his family en we went on kiting in Zanzibar in a lovely boutiue hotel Dhow Inn in Paje.

Excellent staff and service unbeatable location
We booked a 5 day mid-range safari with Lion King Adventures having heard about them on Jack’s Flight Club forum. We were booking from the UK and wanted to use a local Tanzanian company - I would definitely use them again.
All the staff we had contact with were efficient, friendly and 100% trustworthy and they made the whole process reassuring and enjoyable.
From Florida at head office to Chris the chef who delivered our lunch on day 1 to Huruma, our lovely guide for 5 days - he really became one of the family for the trip and we all enjoyed his company as well as his great driving, knowledge and the kindness he showed to us as well as other guides and local Masai people we met along the way.
We saw many beautiful animals but also felt truly immersed in the culture and landscape too.
The staff at all the lodges were all lovely and very welcoming. Nyota is a very special place.
We have spent time previously in Namibia, Botswana, SA, Zimbabwe and Kenya, all of which have incredible wildlife and landscapes but it is the people of Tanzania that will make us want to return again.
Many thanks for an unforgettable trip

Very Impressed and beyond expectation
We booked a family of 6 trip from England direct with Lion King - Florida was great with all the booking details and messages and a mid level 5 day Safari package was put together - we had a fantastic guide Huruma for the trip who was knowledgeable, charming and did everything he could to make it a great, memorable trip - all the accommodation was wonderful particularly lovely was Nyota camp in the Serengeti - all staff were friendly and excellent service with great rooms - a special trip and I would highly recommend Lion King
