Amazing experience
Our guide, Joseph, was exceptional! He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and plants. He was very easy going and friendly. The office staff, Caroline and Rose, were very responsive and helpful during the booking process. I feel that we got more than our money's worth. I would highly recommend this company.

Wonderful
We loved our experience in Tanzania with Khalifa. He was a wonderful tour guide and you could tell he had a lot of respect for the animals and their home. He was always able to answer our millions of questions about different animals to current politics or how to cook banana stew. Everywhere we stayed felt like luxury even though this was a mid level safari. Every meal was delicious and plentiful, but would have loved to try more traditional dishes.
Lion King does provide tipping etiquette for guides and accommodation on their website. If you add on additional activities, your tour guide is not the one accompanying you on these activities, so expect to pay additional tips on these days.
I would 100% recommend a safari in Tanzania with Lion King.

Excellent
5-day’s privet safari with Lion King with a route and luxury lodges we have chosen. Lion King is responsive, very good exchanges and respectful of your budget! The safari lived up to our expectations.
2 days in Serengeti in the Fours saison lodge with extraordinary views of the savannah and a warm welcome. Attentive staff everywhere and a guide, Nasser, very professional, he knows the wildlife well, a faultless guide that we highly recommend. We were able to observe many species and scenes of wild life, especially the lions during mating season, just incredible. We were in the front row with our guide who always knew how to place our car in the right place. In addition to the more common species, we had the chance to observe giraffes and elephants at length. Eye-popping images and lots of souvenir photos. An unforgettable visit to an unforgettable Massai village. A very beautiful dream trip!

Happy to recommend Lion King to all my friends who want to have a safari in Tanzania!
A great safari experience and wonderful memories. The guide is very reliable and actively helped us arrange various things. The accommodation environment was amazing and we saw a lot of animals as wished . Although we encountered some unexpected things along the way, Lion King actively helped us coordinate and solve them. I am very happy to have chosen Lion King. Highly recommended:)

Professional, organised and knowledgable.
We had a fantastic experience with Lion King Safaris. Our guide, Pius, went above and beyond to make sure that our safari experience was perfect. He was so professional and helpful throughout. We valued his knowledge of the wildlife in the different parks and he was entertaining company for the 5 days we were away.
We stayed in some fantastic places and valued the excellent organisation of the company as our trip was seamless from start to finish. We were lucky to see the Big Five, and Pius made it his mission to ensure that we saw as many different animals as possible. We would really highly recommend Lion King safaris - they will work tirelessly to meet your every need.

Lion king - The kings of Serengeti
Our experience with Lion King has truly been fantastic. The company takes care of every small detail on the trip including departure timings, comfort in vehicle and guides you perfectly for a great Game Drive Safari. Their drivers/ Guides are extremely well versed with the nuances of the Serengeti and leave no stone unturned to ensure one gets to see the best of what Serengeti has to offer. We had Mwita with us who was exceptional! Thanku lion king and Thnku Serengeti for a spectacular trip and until we meet again!!!

Lion King provides exceptional service and once-in-a-lifetime experiences
Lion King Adventures planned the trip of a lifetime for us. We opted for the 8-day safari and beach tour, and it was the best trip we have ever taken, thanks to Lion King. We looked at several tour companies prior to booking our trip and we decided to go with Lion King because they have great reviews online, their prices are competitive, and they are a local company based out of Tanzania. Our tour consultant, Pendo, booked the most beautiful hotels for us, plus all of our meals and transportation. Whenever I had a question about how to prepare for the trip, Pendo was always more than helpful. Our safari guide, Ozzy, was knowledgeable and has a keen eye for spotting even the most elusive animals. Ozzy always made sure we were front and center for every animal viewing. Furthermore, I felt safe and cared for the entire trip. I would absolutely book another safari with Lion King Adventures.

Luxury and well organised
I absolutely loved the whole process of booking my Africa trip with Lion king adventures. From intially organising my trip with Pendo / Nickson over email, to once I'm there, with my friendly and knowledgeable guide Leonard, it all went smoothly! My driver from the airport (Tumain) was also lovely to chat too who took me from Kilimanjaro to Arusha.
Accommodation, food, vehicles were all above expectations - I was looked after like a king!
Conversation in English was never an issue with Leonard, he explained many facts on animals and the landscape, especially about the reason Serengeti is so flat and treeless! Loved my time on safari! Even saw a lioness take down a Zebra very close to where we had parked!

Wonderful honeymoon safari
Our African safari with Lion King Adventures was an absolute dream come true! Standing with Pendo who booked the trip, was very patient and came up with several different options to make sure it met our desired length of stay and level of accommodations. From the moment we arrived in Tanzania, our honeymoon felt incredibly special thanks to the choice of lodges that exuded luxury and charm. The breathtaking landscapes, magnificent wildlife, and enchanting sunsets made every day unforgettable.
However, what truly set this experience apart was our incredible tour guide, Enock. He was not just a guide, but a storyteller, a friend, and a true ambassador of Tanzania. Enock went above and beyond to ensure we didn't miss a single wonder of this beautiful country. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and warm personality made the journey even more extraordinary.
Every step of the tour surpassed our wildest expectations. It's rare to find such a perfect blend of adventure, comfort, and genuine connection with both nature and the people. If you're planning an African adventure, take our word for it – ask for Enock as your guide; he will make your journey a memory to cherish forever.
Thank you, Lion King Adventures, for making our honeymoon safari an experience beyond words. We are forever grateful for the memories you've helped us create.

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!
