Fantastic experience from start to finish
Lion King Adventures are excellent. Edward and Kabwe organized a fantastic itinerary starting with safari expedition to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara followed by a week in Zanzibar. Shafino was an AMAZING guide - in less than 3 days we saw the entire Big 9 (yes, there are 9 not 5!) with multiple close range views of lions, leopards and cheetahs. Bonus points for spotting multiple rhino, lions in trees and a group of 5+ hyena cubs. Shafino’s 25+ years of experience were evident in his ability to convey endless knowledge about the animals, terrain, people and region. Perhaps more importantly, he is highly professional, thoughtful and fun - you will be in good hands with Shafino. Highly recommend Lion King Adventure!

Professional, meticulous and caring
An unforgettable, incredible trip with Lion King. Very professional and kind service is provided from the beginning of the inquiry, to the final docking of the itinerary, till the beginning of the journey and the end. We were provided with plenty of drinks, including beer and wine, and plenty of paper towels and wipes during Safari. Our guide and driver Richie was very professional and we collected the big 5 on our first day at Tarangire NP. We saw so many memorable moments and received amazing photos during the whole Safari. The whole trip is particularly much time on the road, almost all massage road. The Lion King Safari car was well maintained, we had no trouble breaking down on the way, and our guide Richie delivered us safely and smoothly with excellent driving skills. He will also provide professional explanation on the way to find the animal, and answer all questions. I will definitely recommend it to my friends!

unforgettable Safari with Lion King and Huruma
When I booked the tour on website, Lion King replied prompt and optional.
What the accommodations Lion King booked are more than expectation! If let me book, I cannot find such fantastic acommodations like Nyota luxurious camp!
What's the most important, the guide Huruma from Lion King is professional, passionate and responsible, he knows everything about Tanzania and Safari, be happy to share. And Huruma is a kind guide, when we saw other cars met problems on the way, he tried to help them, even though they are from other companies.
The car and scheduale is perfect, and all meals (lunch organized by Huruma), dinners, breakfasts are pretty good.
Will highly recommend Lion King and Huruma to everyone who will come to Safari! I would visit again!

Excellent safari experience made by Lion King Adventures
From the first contact on we felt well looked after. We were provided with a lot of informations how to prepare for the safari and we were also helped by Kabwe from Lion King Adventures while we had problems to receive the visa for Tanzania.
Everything worked well and we were very lucky with our guide Heaven. We can recommend this tour including Tarangire NP, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. If we come back to Tanzania one day we would stay in Serengeti a few days longer, it is definitly worth. The booked accommodations, especially Nyota Luxury Camp in Serengeti and Embalakai Camp near Ngorongoro, were very good with friendly and helpful people. The meals at the lodges were delicious and we were also provided with fresh cooked lunch from these lodges during our safari tour. So, we had a great time in Tanzania! Asante sana!

Absolutely amazing safari
From the booking to the actual safari itself lion king we’re superb. We really found the pre-departure information helpful and the communication about the details was always prompt and sound. The safari itself was amazing. Enock our guide was extremely able and knowledgeable and seemed to instinctively know where to search for animals. We saw loads and several close up, including elephants, cheetahs and lions. The accommodation were really special and we especially like being in the tented camp on the Serengeti. The cooked picnic lunches were lovely each day and we always seemed to have a great picnic spot.
If you are thinking about a safari then lion king is a great professional company to go with.

Expectacular Team and Amazing Experience
Long story short... AMAZING!!!!!
Our experience was excellent since our first email requesting a quote until saying Good bye to our guide Mwita (aka THE BEST GUIDE)
We searched around for months before making our decision. But the communication was great with them. We got a lot of information that helped us well prepare our trip. We did Tarangire and Ngorongoro. The guide Mwita had an answer for everything. We learned a lot with him. I do recommend this company to anyone. I'm glad we went with Liong King!

Great custom made experience!
If you are looking for an experience that will exceed your expectations, then Lion King Adventures is a great choice. We spoke with them several times before confirming our decision, and they made sure to select the best package to make our experience unforgettable. The hotels they recommended were great, and the tour guide was very experienced and friendly, always making sure we were having a good time, and understanding the fact that we were coming from a very far, and very different culture.
They definitely have the right attitude towards hospitality, and will do everything possible to make you feel at ease and enjoy your adventure.
Thank you Lion King Adventures! May you stay great for Tanzania!

Magnificent Safari Experience
There are not enough words to describe how phenomenal our safari experience was! From the beginning of planning to the safari itself, Lion King was professional and helpful. The trip consultant who helped me select the itinerary was thorough and timely with responses. Rose took over once I selected the itinerary and moved forward with planning. She was patient and answered every question right up until our departure. The driver who picked us up at Kilimanjaro was friendly and gave us basic information for the start of our safari the next day. Then, that is where the real magic happened.
Richard, our guide, was everything we could have hoped for and more. His passion for the parks and the animals was evident during the entire safari. He was just as excited to find animals as we were. He was so patient with our many questions (it was like we became kids again with our many, random questions about the animals and their habits lol) and he was extremely knowledgeable. Richard knew key locations to find hard to spot wildlife. We saw a leopard, 12+ cheetahs (including babies!), and more lions than I can recall (including two sightings eith with recent kills). Richard was the ultimate host and guide and constantly had our best interest in mind. His personality was kind, amiable, and fun. I honestly think that the safari guide can make or break the entire experience, and Richard made our experience unforgettable while setting a high standard for our expectations on future safaris. We will absolutely request him again if/when we return.
Thank you, Lion King and team!
If you have read this far, then book the safari. You will NOT regret it!

Lion King Adventures is a fantastic Tanzanian tour company with a highly responsive/competent team!
Bottom line: If you are planning an African safari, Lion King Adventures is definitely a team of highly skilled professionals that we would strongly recommend. From the front office help (Rose and Caroline) to our wonderful guide (Freddie), we had a truly jaw- dropping experience. Every question was answered (and we asked a lot of them), every need met and every dream realized.
This was a 15 day experience (10 day safari and 4 days relaxing in Zanzibar). The accommodations were terrific and the food was outstanding. When there were unexpected issues (KLM-lost luggage), the Lion King team was immediately on top of it and the problem was resolved.
Our guide, Freddie, was incredibly knowledgeable. He could spot animals so quickly and immediately get us close for photos. He worked well with other guides, communicating regularly, so as to make sure we saw the 'big 5' and a host of other interesting animals.
In closing, if you are considering a safari, choose Lion King Adventures. We could not have asked for more. KUDOS to the Lion King Team!
