Great Experience with Gelbert in Serengeti
I and my friends just came back from serengeti, and we are very grateful to our guide and driver Gelbert. He is a staff member of lionking travel company, and he provided us with seven days of quality service. Gelbert is a very knowledgeable and experienced guide, he can take us to see various animals, and explain to us their characteristics and habits. He can also accurately find the location and time of animal activity in the grassland without signs. Gelbert is also a very considerate and friendly person, he will arrange the itinerary according to our needs and preferences. He will stop the car when we want to take pictures, let us enjoy and record the beautiful scenery. He will also chat with us, joke with us, make us feel relaxed and happy. Gelbert is not only an excellent guide and driver, but also a person who loves nature and animals. He told us that he studied animals and environment, so he has a lot of feelings for serengeti, he hopes to protect this beautiful land and the creatures living on it. He also taught us how to respect nature and animals, not to disturb their life and environment.
I highly recommend Gelbert to anyone who wants to travel to serengeti, he will give you an unforgettable experience and memory. If you want to book Gelbert as your guide and driver, you can contact lionking travel company, they will help you arrange everything. Trust me, you won't regret choosing Gelbert as your guide in serengeti.

Lifetime experience
We done the safari tour in Taranguire, Serengueti (2 days), Ngorongoro and Lake Mayara and it was a wonderful experience. The landscape, the animals, the great and polite local people we met, everything was awesome. We are very thankful to our guide Salehe, who made our days much better with patience to search for the better spots, with kindness and a great spirit. Communication in english wasn't a problem. Another highlight was the Serengueti hotel, Nyota Luxury Tented Camp, a real gem inside The wild. I'm really thankful for finding this great agency and for having such an lifetime experience like this.

Unbelievably great trip!
I have travelled all over the world but this was my first trip to Africa. Having wanted to go on a safari since I was a teenager, this was my dream vacation. After much due diligence and some really good correspondence with Lion King, I selected to go with them. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. MY TRIP WAS AMAZING, STUPENDOUS, and AWE INSPIRING. Needless to say, I loved it. If I could give Lion King additional stars (say, 8 out of 5), I would. They did an amazing job. From handling a customized trip with numerous changes (including one right before I left) with aplomb, to planning and executing a near-flawless trip despite it being rather complicated (and long), to providing not one but two outstanding guides, the quality of Lion King's work shined.
Bookending the first and last day of my trip was Enock, a terrific person and extremely knowledgeable guide who I believe speaks four languages. For most of my trip, my guide was Richard, also a terrific person with a passion for both mammals and birds. His knowledge proved very useful while we were on safari. I became friends with both of them.
The new Nyota Luxury Camp (owned by Lion King's parent company) in the Serengeti was amazing. The tents, smiling and excellent service, food, and even the pit fire were all outstanding. I strongly recommend this option.
I have been all over the world and set a high bar of expectations and excellence. Lion King to its credit, easily surpassed it.
Based on my experience, I strongly recommend this company. They did great.

Knowledgeable and experienced
We loved our 3 days honeymoon safari experience. Our guide Shafino was very kind and especially knowledgeable.
Even when I was preparing fir my trip, Lion King Adventures were amazing. They are always so quick to respond to emails and provided me with all the details needed.
I can’t recommend them enough, to anyone who wants to have a peace of mind before and during their safari trip!

Outstanding Experience - Trip of a Lifetime
We had an amazing experience with Lion King and Mwita as our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the animals and their behaviour, always eager to answer our questions and provide fascinating facts about the wildlife. His sharp eyes and knowledge of the areas helped us spot some of the more elusive creatures. Our accommodation was first class, especially at Mt. Manyara Kilimamoja - it literally took my breath away - it was so stunning. The dinner and lunch time meals were delicious, and the family labelled wine was such
nice touch. Mwita is a terrific guide, great driver, great spotter of the animals and his knowledge of where they might be hiding was amazing!! We saw the big 5 and even though Mwita has seen these beautiful animals many times, he was very excited for us to see/experience them for our first time!!! . Overall, I highly recommend Lion King Adventures for a memorable and enjoyable safari experience.

Amazing experience! Trip of a lifetime.
This was without doubt the best trip we have ever had! The process from start to finish was seamless and stress free. The agents at lion king were extremely professional and patient with our personal requests. The tour itself was truly special. Our tour guide Oswald (Ozzie) was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and had clearly built great relationships with staff and other gour guides. This helped on the day of the safari with constant communication with fellow guides to locate the harder to find animals. The amount of animals we saw was beyond my expectations with Ozzie seeming to always find the best spots. I would highly recommend lion king and specifically Ozzie if you want a once in a lifetime trip!

Excellent
Honestly the best trip of my life! We organized this trip with another couple. We saw so many big cats, wild animals and just stunning sceneries. The whole tour was very smooth and we enjoyed every bit of it. We customized a big portion of our tour and lion king made sure we got what we wanted.
Ozzie was our tour guide, he was very informative and helpful! He made the trip very smooth. He was incredibly knowledgeable and were able to take us to the “good spots” to see some of the harder to find animals. No hassle and no problems with any tweak and requests we asked for. Highly recommend lion king and Ozzie!!!
