Amazing Memories In A Tanzanian Safari!
4D/3N Mid-Range Safari: Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro (Late April 2024)
MAMBO VIPI! Five stars because I can't rate Gama, Gordon and Lion King Adventures with more stars! I never believed I would get "bored" of being at the right place and right time for animal sightings while staying at amazing accommodations across Tanzania. Lion King Adventures made sure that each detail was well thought through.
From the planning stage, Gordon made sure all my questions and requests for information were cleared up through email and a couple of calls. He remembered every comment I made and focused on those areas were I needed assistance. The amount of options and variables to consider are overwhelming and Gordon was able to structure an experience that made sense for my wishes and budget.
During the safari, Gama - our guide - showed thorough knowledge and experience in the safari world. Every day he brought a huge smile, great conversation and helped to build a once in a life time memory. I hope you get him as your future guide of choice. Most importantly, he makes the experience pleasant and manageable for every type of personality while making suggestions to enhance the safari. Listen to his tips because he knows how to make the magic happen. I hope you are able to sit down, lay back and have a poa poa experience like I lived! HAINA NOMA!
Lion King Adventures knows what they are doing. Reliable from start to finish. They have multiple teams/individuals that are focused on sales, planning, transfers, meals, certified guides, etc. I could see their level of expertise and capabilities in everything they did.
My accommodations were:
Escarpment Lodge (Eco Lodge)
Nyota Luxury Lodge (Tented Camp - FAV)
Ngorongoro Forest (Tented Camp)
P.S. Being flexible will go a very long way. Keep in mind you are going to an experience in nature. You don't need fancy camera's to get good pictures. Long rain season had great weather. Lots of sun, scattered showers and most important NOT A LOT OF CROWDS at a competitive price!

Perfect Travel，thankful oz and Richie
This perfect trip allowed me to get to know Tanzania again. Our guides were replaced by two, but both of them were perfect. They made us feel sincere and valued! This travel agency is very mature, and the guide not only took us to see animals but also taught us a lot of knowledge along the way. I have recommended other Chinese friends to come here. Olina expresses her gratitude to the two guides, oz and Richie

Unforgettable lifetime memories
We really enjoy the Safari trip, as long as I told them where I wanted to go they thoroughly informed me everything. Each location that I stayed at was enjoyable as I let them choose it for me. Our guide Shafino was helpful and tried to make the most meaningful of our time spent. This was a lifetime experience with incredible never to forget memories. “Serengeti shall not die”.

Lifetime experience with the best operator in Africa.
AMAZING! Can't put into words the level of professionalism from Lion King and o ur guide Fredy. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect from the moment we started the booking process until we got dropped off at the airport. You can tell they have been doing this a long time and they are the BEST at it.
Even the local hotel in Arusha told us Lion King is the best operator for safaris. Our guide Fredy was exceptional, very knowledgeable, respectful, magnificent driver and he had a great eye for catching animals. We couldn't have seen half of the animals without his expertise and knowledge.
If you go on on a Safari, book with Lion King and with Fredy as your guide, you will not be disappointed!!!!!

Experience of a Lifetime!
Our guide, Gama, was an EXPERT! We had an incredible tour and he was able to answer every question that we had about every animal, plant and location. Our guide was an excellent driver and navigated Tanzania like a pro. He knew every road, every shortcut and kept a close eye on where the animals were. We saw everything on our list!
We will be coming back and wouldn’t dream of doing a safari with another company.

Guides Skilled at Finding Animals
Tanzania was a life changing experience! We did a five day safari with our guide, Gama. He knows an incredible amount of information on the animals, birds, and culture- any question we asked he knew the answer or found out. He has a good eye and finds the hidden animals that all the other drivers completely missed! He also knows how to set up the perfect shot for your wildlife photography. The guides all communicate during the game drives to share locations of where the animals are so you get to have some very cool experiences.
We felt very safe, taken care of, and learned an incredible amount. The car was cleaned every day, with fresh water, beer, and wine always available.
Lion King overall was awesome to work with, and answered all our questions quickly. The drivers transferring us were friendly, punctual and provided amenities such as water and charging stations. We did a mid range safari, but all the accomodations had wifi, were beautiful, comfortable and friendly.
We would love to come back and do another tour, definitely with Gama and Lion King.

A very professional organisation which delivered a stress-free safari
We found the staff at Lion King Adventures to be very responsive and helpful in the lead-up to the safari. Our guide, Heaven, was extremely professional. I definitely felt that he was trying his hardest to make sure we really enjoyed our trip. He was always ready to answer any questions we had, as well as sharing interesting facts and stories about the animals - which really added to the experience. Our safari was stress-free, because Lion King took care of everything. One of the highlights was staying at the beautiful Nyota Luxury Camp. Arriving there just before sunset at the end of our first day in the Serengeti to find several elephants grazing just at the edge of the camp was incredible. I’d definitely recommend using their company, although it’s true that there are cheaper operators out there.

Excellent organization, our ranger was amazing, we loved it!
We recently had the pleasure of embarking on a safari adventure with Lion King, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, every aspect of our journey exceeded our expectations. Since the beginning, Edward helped us tailor the perfect itinerary. Then Rose was super helpful with final details.
Our ranger, Shadrack, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and ecosystem. We learned so much about the animals and their habitats. Shadrack had an uncanny ability to spot wildlife that we would have otherwise missed! He was excellent, kind, friendly and skilled!
The attention to detail and level of service provided by the staff of the hotels Lion King booked for us were impeccable. The accommodations were amazing, eco- friendly, super comfortable, the food was delicious, and every staff member we encountered was friendly, kind, warm and professional. We felt truly pampered and well taken care of throughout our stay.
Thank you all who made this experience unforgettable! Hakuna matata! Asante!

Fantastic safari
We went on a 7 day, 6 night safari. Our guide Gama and chef Kareem were superb: professional, organised, always available and pleasant. In particular, Gama accompanied us on spectacular safaris in the national parks, explaining everything to us in detail and answering all our questions, with joy and extreme competence.
