Our tour operator was very knowledgeable
Hello! After extensive research on which agency I should book my honeymoon safari with. I followed my gut and decided to go with Lion King Adventures for their great support and efficiency throughout my booking process. “Nick” whom arranged my itinerary was extremely accommodating to all our requests; he respected our budget and planned everything accordingly. Our itinerary was one of the best!
No Regrets, whatsoever, Lion King Adventures were up to our expectations. Our safari guide “Gilbert” made our trip unforgettable, with his great knowledge in the surrounding and landscapes of the chosen areas, in addition to his ability to spot various animals from afar, Gilbert made our trip one to remember!
I truly thank Lion King Adventures for this 5* experience. Honestly, much much recommended!

Knew Everythinf!!
What a trip! We worked with Goodluck as our guide. Pendo assisted in our booking. She is incredibly organized, even when I wasn’t! The tour was amazing, Goodluck answered all our outrageous questions - how long are elephants pregnant for? Why do lions roar? What animals eat what animals? You name it! He knew all the answers. We are so glad we decided to go on this trip. And, it’s the perfect way to travel during covid!!! It’s just your group and the guide - totally safe. Ugh! I can’t say enough, such an eye opening experience - one of the best trips I’ve ever been on (avid traveler, 47 countries) this is one for the books! Thank you, thank you, thank you Lion King Adventures!

Life changing experience, highly recommended
Life changing experience, highly recommended. The company is owned by a local Tanzanian ex-guide (support local businesses and people!). Lodging throughout the safari was so cool - from big comfortable tent-houses in the wild to luxurious local hotels. Food was awesome and delicious. We saw all the animals (except rhino from the close up) and had fun waking up at a crack of dawn to catch animals when they’re most active. Kilimanjaro base camp hike was pretty cool and unique. Our guide was the best and made the safari experience that much more enjoyable. Truly lucky to have had him (Goodluck is his name). Very knowledgeable, pleasant, funny and a good person. Booking experience was excellent, Lion King people are very accommodating.
Tanzanians are friendly, hardworking, polite and fair people - enjoyed every single person I met and will definitely be back for other safaris and experiences!
Great value for money. Reliable group of people.

Excellent tour with amazing sightings!
From start to finish, Lion King Adventures was spectacular! Nick and Pendo were so helpful and accommodating while we custom designed our experience. Pendo even went above and beyond to shop for a camera battery and charger in advance of our arrival because mine wasn’t working. Mwita was our guide/driver and he genuinely wanted us to enjoy our trip, he was always enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the animals and areas we travelled. We ended up seeing 70+ lions, 2 river crossings and many many more amazing animal sightings! The vehicle was clean and spacious and even included personalized wine bottles with the complimentary beers. Highly recommend this company!

Truly a five star company!
Choosing Lion King is one of the best decision we made during our first African Safari! The company is really flexible with our request and last minute changes. They replied to our messages and emails quickly and made sure everything is clear. Our guide Khalifa is truly outstanding! He gets to point out animals from a distance that only we could see through our binoculars, and with that we were able to see majority of the animals we wanted to spot on this safari trip! He is super kind and is always full of energy through out the day! We never encountered any single problem during our trip. Never have a second thought of booking this company to do your safari, you would never regret it!

Fantastic experience
My safari through Northern Tanzania with Lion King was superb. During the booking process, both Godwin and Pendo were immensely helpful in planning my trip in a way that it would be a wonderful experience. Pendo in particular even went further than that - my luggage got lost on my flight into Tanzania and she helped me get it back a couple of days later, even had it flown to the Serengeti where I was by that time. Exceptional service. I then had the immense pleasure to have Musa as my guide and it couldn't have been any better. He is extremely knowledgeable and I learned so much about animals, Tanzania and Africa in general. Musa was terrific in spotting any animal, big and small, and I was lucky enough to see everything there is to see - from all big 5, to baby lions and even a cheetah family. Musa also went all out at all times to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. He was patient, always friendly and happy, fun to be around and great to have a chat with (even in my native German - which he speaks extremely well). Thank you Musa for this fantastic trip and experience - and thank you Lion King for all your fantastic support. All accommodations were great (I especially loved the tented camp in the Serengeti), so was the food and all staff and people we met along the way - all were incredibly friendly and helpful. I can wholeheartedly recommend both Lion King and Musa as a guide - you won't be disappointed. Hope to come back one day!

Very good Service
After contacting several safari companies I decided to go with Lion King because all my special requests where respected, plans where changed from my side few times and they always found the best solution - the company is very flexible, which is important in covid times. And we got rewarded! Even though we didnt ask for a German speaking Guide, we got one. Musa made our Safari incredible! He could read our minds and was really concerned that everyones wishes were fullfilled. He was very patient with us, could tell anything about every animal and even more explained a lot about his beautiful country. We really enjoyed our trip to the fullest, felt in safe hands and would 100% do it again! Thanks Musa for the great experience !

Best honeymoon trip ever!
We decided to go on 4-Day 3 Nights Luxury Safari wit Lion King Adventures. That was best decision because this trip was truly awesome! The communication with company was excellent. They provided us with all necessary information and they take care about everything. Also our guide David was very helpful and always answered all our questions. The accommodation in Lake Manyara Kilimamoja Lodge, Kitela Lodge and Mount Meru Hotel was absolutely perfect, we experienced highly professional services and food was delicious.
If you want to go on Safari and enjoy it, do not hesitate and contact Lion King Adventures. Those guys know how to make your trip unforgettable!!! Thank you very much for your services, it was absolutely awesome!!!

Beyond my expectations
Booking a safari is not an easy task. There are too many options and agencies, I took a chance with Lion King, and I didn’t regret it. The service was beyond my expectations, and everything was very well organized and smooth from the moment they contacted you till the end of the safari.
Kudos to Nick, who was patient, answered all our questions before booking, and helped us pick the best safari option.
Our guide Abu was terrific. He knows parks very well, where to find animals, and can tell a lot about animals, nature, culture, etc. If there were a question he didn’t have answers next morning, Abu would have it.

Amazing 7 days Camping Safari
Everything about our experience with Lion King Adventures was amazing.
Since the beginning, Pendo was very patient and super helpful with our planning.
Our guide Richard had incredible knowledge about the animals and all the parks (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara) and it is unbelievable the way he can spot the animals from a very long distance. We were able to see so many animals, and even the crossing in Mara river! He also suggested some alterations to our itinerary that definitely made the trip even better.
Our cook Yusuph was also amazing! He cooked delicious meals for us.
Both of them were very professional and polite, and we were super comfortable during the entire trip.
Thank you so much for this experience!
