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.

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!!!!!

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”.

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

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!

Lion King Adventures has an incredible attention to detail.
Jambo, jambo! Just finished our 4 day safari with Lion King Adventures and our amazing guide Gama! Gama and the entire team were impecable to work with from the very start. Their attention to detail in everything is what made this experience top notch. Gama made sure we were always hydrated, well fed (the picnic lunches are a great touch) and shared very knowledgeable facts about each animal and creature we encountered. His humor and fun personality made our 4 day journey an unforgettable one. Anyone looking for a safari experience in Tanzania, choose Lion King Adventures and your expectations will be exceeded! Asante sana - I will be back.

Dream come true holiday!
Prior to the trip the team was very helpful in creating the itinerary suited for us and also provided help with the Visa, which I had already applied for but wasn’t coming through. Super friendly is all I can say, and going the extra mile.
Upon arrival everything went extremely smoothly. Lodges booked were excellent, and the quality of food was very high.
We had the best guide, Shafino Dominick, we could wish for. With his many years of experience he was able to spot things we would have otherwise absolutely missed. He has spoiled us for life, as we managed to see the Big 9 is just 6 days of Safari. The trip would not have been the same without him. He has made this one unforgettable! We highly recommend him.
We will cherish the holiday for the rest of our lives, it was an absolute dream come true Safari trip.

Lion King has given us the BEST service on one of our dream holiday (Ngorongo, Serengeti, Zanzibar)
Lion King Adventures has provided us a wonderful service from planning a customized trip (we made several changes), airport pickup and drop off, being informed about everything, recommending comfortable and very satisfying accommodations. The staff are the warmest and friendliest and above all our tour guide (Shafino) has taken our trip to the next level. He was stuck with us for four days from Ngorongoro to Serengeti. He is warm, very friendly, caring and knowledgeable . We had the luxury to see all the big 5 including the additional photographic 4 (Cheetah, Hippo, Giraffe and Zebra). We also saw the great migration and had wonderful picnic lunches. Throughout the trip we just had to say HAPPY HAPPY for Shafino to continue to the next adventure. We recommend him and Lion King Adventure for anyone planning a Safari trip in Tanzania.

Excellent tour operator for a memorable safari!
Fantastic experience of the wild. From our initial contact Lion King adventures were very flexible and accommodating. We changed our itinerary several times. We got valuable suggestions so that we could make our final decision. We opted for an 8 days trip including Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Zanzibar.The service from the pick up was excellent. Our guide Shafino was very experienced. He was caring and very knowledgeable. He gave us very good insight on the culture of the Masai and also the many species of animals that we were able to see. We saw the big 5 early in the trip. The sighting of 6 black Rhinos the first day was a great start and we managed to see the elusive cheetah and Leopard as soon as we entered Serengeti in day two. We had a goal to see the big nine and we achieved it the second day.
We will recommend Shafino and Lion King to our friends and family and we hope to visit again soon.
