Incredible Safari with experienced and funny Guide
We had a really amazing safari in all aspects, guided by Gama. All services and communication before was professional and we felt in good hands. The food also for launch was very good and special. We mostly loved all choosen accommodations, especially Nyota in the Serengeti was unforgettable lovely with people, accommodation, environment and animals. Gama did a really good job, with good intuition he brought us to the right time to see lions (hunt), elephants, cheetahs etc. right in front of us. Just incredible! Maybe we've been lucky, but mostly we felt guided very well. We're happy with our choice of Lion King Adventures!

Amazing
We (four adults) have just finished an 8-day tailored safari with Lion King. The experience exceeded our expectations. Our guide was Macha and he was extremely knowledgeable, patient and humorous. He was able to spot with the naked eye rare wildlife e.g. rhinos, cheetahs that we could only see with binoculars. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife and flora was impressive. We felt as if we were in safe and competent hands the whole time. Overall the preparation process was seamless. Rose was very responsive and knowledgeable and promptly responded to our questions and requests. Our accommodation was beautiful in every location and the meals, including the lunch hampers were delicious. With our guide, Macha, we saw two wildebeest crossings as part of the annual migration. This was a fantastic, once-in-a-lifetime experience and Macha was able to manoeuvre the vehicle to the best location for viewing and photography.
Trip of a lifetime
This was my wife's and my first time in Tanzania and first time doing a safari. Our experience surpassed all expectations thanks to the awesome job job done by Lion King Adventures and it's staff.
Pendo was our point of contact leading up to the trip and was quick to respond to our many questions and would send over clear sets of instructions/guides leading up to our trip that made our travels and preparation a smooth experience.
Our driver to and from the airport, Tumaini, was very friendly and a safe driver. He was very happy to teach us words in Swahili and give us information about Arusha and the various sights around.
Lastly, our safari guide Gilbert helped make our trip absolutely unforgettable. He is very friendly and happy to answer all the many questions we had about animals and Tanzania in general. He is an excellent driver navigating all the roads in the region and is incredibly knowledgeable about every single animal and about Tanzania and culture in general. He was also happy to give us Swahili lessons while we drove around. He is an excellent guide with a great eye for spotting animals and ensured that we saw everything we wanted to see on our trip. It's also very clear that he is passionate about the wildlife and was very respectful in making sure we didn't disturb the animals while we were viewing them.
I cannot recommend Lion Kind Adventures and it's staff enough - we had the trip of a lifetime thanks to them. Asante sana!

Far more than we expected!
This was by far the best trip we have ever taken.
Pendo was extremely helpful in planning the trip. Our guide Heaven was extremely knowledgable and all round just a decent human being to be around. Heaven our guide made sure each day was packed full of exciting sites and animals. From the time we arrived until we left everything this company promised was delivered. Thank You!

Friendly
The organisation was very efficient; communication was great during the planning phase and they have been able to accommodate every request.
The safari guide (Immanuel) was very knowledgeable and friendly.
The meals provided were all very delicious (and very generous portions too).

Best Safari Ever!
We had the most amazing time on our safari tour, Lion King looked after my boyfriend and I ever so well, we felt like royalty! We could not fault anything, it was perfect. Our safari guide Aziz was great and his English was excellent, he even joined in with all our banter which was fab! He was also amazing at his job as a safari guide and every knowledgable about all the wildlife. On our final day we hiked to the first base camp of Kilimanjaro with Saladi who was also amazing! We had such a great experience and would highly recommend Lion King, Aziz & Saladi, thank you all!

Simply more than we could ever have ever expected!
From day one, to the final drop off at the airport, our safari experience went smoothly and seamlessly. There was never any pressure felt in communicating with Lion King Adventures. Our correspondences and questions throughout setting up our safari and booking procedures were were always helpful and timely answered. Once arriving at the airport we were cheerfully picked up and driven to our lodging for the evening. Our Lion King Adventures guide and driver for the next 9 days was Salahe. What a knowledgeable, kind and good humoured fellow. We always felt safe as we drove through the many National Parks. The safari lodges and tented camps and were all exceptional as was the food. Everyday was an adventure with amazing landscapes, incredibly beautiful wildlife that was often peaceful but at times raw and savage. Top value for the money! Truly our trip of a lifetime, made possible by Lion King Adventures.

An amazing experience!
My husband and I spent the first part of our honeymoon on a 7 day safari. It was an incredible experience! We saw everything we wanted to see and much much more. Our expectations were far exceeded. Booking through Lion King was a very easy experience. All of our questions were promptly answered, and they provided us with all the information needed- from the visas, to a packing list, to a tipping chart, everything was already organized for us. Our guide was amazing. We felt so lucky that we had a guide who was fun to talk to, full of personality, and so knowledgable on all the animals and plants we saw. We can't recommend Lion King Adventures enough!

Perfect tour
This was our first visit to Tanzania. Our schedule got changed due to a canceled flight, and Lion King accompanied those changes. Our guide, Gilbert, was the best. He answered all of our questions and adapted to make sure he highlighted what we were most interested in. We saw all of the big 5! Gilbert was also very prompt and personable. Would recommend 100%. Our drivers to/from airport, Bright & Tumaini, were also great.

Unforgettable experience
It was exciting unforgettable experience with our tour guide enock. Easily to contact with them they make our trip easy because we don’t have direct flight to Arusha so they arrange for us flight. The accommodation was great. Also the service.
