Fantastic Experience with Lion King
We love our guide, Mr. Goodluck, he’s the best guide who has tons of animals knowledge and experience. He tried very hard to show all the animals to us even the weather is not good. And we also love our chef, Yusuph, he made the best African food and cared about our health. When we get back home we will definitely miss his food.
The safari experience with Goodluck and Yusuph will be kept in my mind forever and ever. Thank you very much Lion King Adventures.

Amazing Safari Experience
Lion King Adventures was a fantastic company to book with. As three women, we always felt well taken care of, safe, and like our best interests were always being looked out for.
The tents felt secure and safe, and were always put up for us. The food was delicious, and our cook Yusefu was such a lively and pleasant person to be around. He kept us so well fed with the yummiest meals.
Our guide, Saleh, really made our safari as phenomenal as it was. He was so patient and kind, answered all of our questions, and got to know us and tailored our safari to suit our interests. Not only did we see an extensive range of incredible animals, but he made sure we saw plenty of big cats (our obsession), we got to see an extraordinary number of lions, leopards, and even a cheetah that Saleh worked hard to find for us. He searched high and low for our favourites, and anticipated where they would move so he could follow them and put us in a prime position to view them and take absolutely amazing photos. I would recommend Saleh to anyone looking to plan a safari, and would insist he be my guide if I were to ever book another.
Thanks so much, Lion King Adventures! We had an amazing time.

Fantastic Driver/Guide
Communication with this company was good with questions responded to in a timely manner. Booking and payment was easy. We had such a terrific time on our Safari and were taken care of from sun up to sun down. We were well fed (Yusufu kept our bellies full with delicious food!) and felt safe at all times. A special 'shout out' to our driver Saleh, who truly made our trip an unforgettable one. He answered our questions, was respectful, kind, and patient, and he worked really hard to make sure we saw as many animals as we did. He anticipated where animals would be found, how they would move, and managed to get us into positions where we could view them and take the most amazing photos! I wouldn't hesitate to book another Safari with Lion King...and would insist on having Saleh as driver/guide.
An experienced, dependable tour operator with incomparable service and passion for their work.
Lion Kings innovative itinerary vastly exceeded my expectations. Having visited Tanzania just 6 months prior to this tour they attempted and succeeded to introduce me to new and thrilling adventures. My tour guide was attentive to my every need such as confirming my request for a vegetarian diet. He had incomparable knowledge of the flora and fauna and had interesting stories having been born and raised in Tanzania.I could not more highly recommend Lion King Adventures.

Using Lion King was the Perfect Choice for our safari honeymoon
Our Safari was amazing. We did a 4 day safari with Goodluck through Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. He was very knowledgable of the area and was willing to answer our hundreds of questions. This provided us a cultural experience as well as nice Safari. His amazing life stories about the area and the local culture touched our hearts forever. There were so many animals and seeing them close up was crazy fun! It was an experience we will cherish forever. Anna was so helpful and nice. She told us what to expect and do at every step of the trip. Everyone we met was so friendly and made us feel comfortable, start to finish. Although we were only in Tanzania for 4 days, we felt at home instantly and we already miss it. That makes us realize...we had an experience of a lifetime. We definitely recommend this company. Thank you Lion King!!!

Perfect
We have been on a 5-day Trip (Lake Manyara, Serengeti (2 nights and Ngorongoro) with Ozzie. The booking process with Anna was perfect. She responded always very fast.
We had a really great time and ozzie fullfilled all our wishes. He was really attentively and showed us every single animal we wanted to see.

Amazing safari all around
Everything about the organization and execution of our Safari was wonderful. Anna was very helpful with planning from half way around the world and we cannot say enough good things about our guide Saleh!! He was so knowledgable and lovely and funny! We even had a request about our hotel in Arusha and they handled it wonderfully. We saw more than we ever expected and can highly recommend this company.
Love, Katie, Connor and Nicole

The perfect safari
Lion King Adventures gave us the perfect safari experience. We emailed Anna with what we needed, and she crafted the trip to include exactly what we asked for... even difficult things like being picked up from Kilimanjaro Airport late at night, a night's accommodation in Arusha organised for us on the night before we started and a drop-off in Moshi at the end, which is much further than Arusha, all of which was incredibly helpful.
The safari itself was wonderful - we visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. We saw all the big 5, including two kills, and a whole host of other wildlife. Our guide, James, was great. He was funny, friendly and very knowledgable, keeping up the fun energy in the jeep from start to finish. He was also very flexible to our needs, asking us how long we wanted our days to be and taking us to where he thought we had the best chance of seeing the animals we wanted to see. He was a real expert on the wildlife, answering all the questions we had and more, teaching us local vocab and even saying "I smell lion" about 2 minutes before finding a lion! A master of the plains!
The facilities were wonderful - big, tasty lunches, speakers and wifi (!) in the open-top jeep, lots of water, beer and soft drinks in the jeep and the accommodation was all very comfortable and came with brilliant customer service too.
We did a private, mid-range, 5-day safari, but I'm sure that Lion King Adventures offers a great service no matter which type of tour you choose. It really felt tailored to what we asked for. Me and my friend were both really happy we chose them for our safari adventure, and we would both recommend them to anyone for an amazing experience in Tanzania.

A breathtaking Adventure
Communication was just perfect from the beginning! They give good advices, include your wishes and at the same time they are taking care about the budget. Our guide (he talked also german) was the best guide in the world, he knew a lot about the different animals and was able to show us amazing places, we saw the big 5 and nit only
from far away! The cook was great as well, breakfast lunch and dinner was typical african food and freshly cooked. Even my husband who was afraid that the food is not enough during the day was absolutely satisfied! Meet fish vegetarian, they had everything! We spend 2 nights in a tented camp, 4nights on camping places and 2 nights in a fantastic luxury lodge to calm down in the end of our trip. Everything was prefect organized and even if i was really sick for two days, i felt ok because they took good care of me! It couldn't have been better! Thank you so so much for that once in a lifetime experience!
