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.
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.

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 ❤️

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!!

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.

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 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!!!

INCREDIBLY KNOWLEDGABLE OF ANIMALS AND CULTURE
We just finished our safari with Lion King Adventures,I found this company online through Safaribookings.com and the reviews were excellent so I went with them, Shafino was our guide and we were just amazed at the knowledge of Tanzania he has, not only of all the animals and their habitat, but also the culture and landscape, there was nothing I asked him he did not have the answer for. Shafino also had an incredible eye for spotting the animals, we saw all Big 9, and got incredibly close to a Leopard which was truly a bonus. The places we stayed were all wonderful but word of caution, certain Luxury tent camps we could not sleep due to flapping of tent flaps with the wind. There is one exception to this and that was the tents at Nyota Luxury Camp, it was by far my absolute favourite, very well constructed and secured down so no noise at night with winds from their tents. Such a wonderful experience to hear the wild animals at night from our room. I recommend staying at least 2 nights here, maybe even 3, it is in a great location for game drives to the central Serengeti to see lots of wildlife.
Thank you Lion King Adventures, Shafino and Naurey for an amazing safari. You all worked very for us and we really appreciated it.
