Amazing Safari!
We were thrilled with the reliability and hospitality we received both from our guide Gilbert and the tour operator Lion King.
All of our accommodations exceeded our expectations, and were very clean however the food became repetitious after a week. Main dishes consisted of overcooked chicken or meat in a variety of sauces with either rice or potatoes and vegetables. ( I assume this is generic for all tour operators depending on the pricing level. )
A hot lunch was provided everyday while we were in transit. Each lodge or camp provided the lunch for the next day.
We moved five times during a week long safari and although we covered a lot of ground and saw over 85 species of birds, reptiles and animals, I would have preferred a slower pace, maybe move only three times in a week and have more down time. This was a personal preference and I would not say the our entire group of four people would agree!
In the end, I would not hesitate to recommend Lion King.

It has been a fantastic experience full of unforgettable moments
A fantastic adventure, led by David our Lion King guide, knowledgeable about the Savannah, has been able to make me live an unforgettable experience and delve into the secrets of Africa, an experience difficult to forget, for its magnificent species of both fauna and botany, as well as for the treatment received. Thanks

Exceptional Safari
My partner and I did a 7 day camping Safari with Lion King Adventures. We had the most fabulous time!!!!
We went to Arusha, Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro Crater NP and Lake Manyara NP.
Everything was very well organised and we were looked after extremely well.
Our guide Khalefa was so friendly and knowledgeable. Thanks to him we saw a huge number of animals (including all of the big 5). He is very experienced and any minor problems we had were fixed promptly, thanks to him and the company.
The camping was seamless, we were very comfortable and loved being so close to the wildlife when we camped in the parks.
Our chef Alute cooked the most delicious food, we loved meal times as much as the game drives!
Overall a 10/10 experience and would recommend to everyone!!!
Thank you Khalefa, Alute and everyone at Lion King Adventures!!!

Lion King Adventure and our guide Gilbert gave me a fantastic time in Tanzania.
Lion King Adventure was a perfect experience from day one and til we finished our safari. They answered all my questions before we came and kept us informed. When we arrived in Tanzania we were met at the airport by a very nice man and from there on out everything was fantastic. Our guide Gilbert met us the next morning, he went through our program for the next 4 days, what we could expect to see etc etc. The game drives was incredible, Gilbert made sure we saw all the big 5 and also the ugly 5. He was very observant, understood when we wanted to stop, or stay and just look at the animals. Imagine 3 half old ladies trying to see where he was pointing...he was so patient.
Lion King Adventure had great cars, good quality seats and lots of water, soda or beer and wine for us ladies. We were given warm lunsj every day, delicious, with warm vegetables, different stews and fresh fruits and cold drinks.
I loved all the game drives, I did not expect to see so much beautiful nature and so many animals and birds.
The hotels Lion King Adventures had picked out was also very nice, my favorite was Emalakai, waking up to the elephant roar and the hippo grassing next to the tent, the staff singing for us...they gave me a memory I will remember for ever.
I will come back, and will use Lion King Adventure again. Thank you all for making my trip the best ever, and a special thanks to our wonderful guide Gilbert and the Massai warrior at Embalakai for the fantastic story.

A safari to remember
We have spent a wonderful time with our guide Saleh in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We saw both the big and ugly five and even a cheetah hunt, albeit an unsuccessful one. ;) Special thanks belongs to Saleh for his superb service and extensive knowledge about the nature. We'd like to especially highlight his careful driving, we always felt safe. Thanks again!

Beyond our expectations
The whole experience was a pleasure, from the enquire, when the agent was very patient answering my question and making the accomodations that I requested. It was all very organized, they kept us informed of the bookings and provided us with the best options.
The quality of the hotels, the food and transportation was the best. The guide (Yusuph) was always attentive of our needs and requests, he provided us with binoculars, carried books where he showed us more information and pictures of the animals we saw, he had wide knowledge of the characteristics and behaviors of the animals and kept us informed all the tome, he took very good care of us.
I recommend this agency 100%

Fantastic Experience
Fantastic experience visiting the various national parks with our professional and helpful guide. Nothing was too much trouble for Lion King, who were professional throughout. Communication was fantastic from the point of requesting a quote, right through to leaving our safari with them. Thanks for an unforgettable experience.

Incredible!
From beginning to end working with Lion King Adventures was nothing short of an amazing experiences.
Booking: We worked with Rosemary to secure our safari booking. She was very thorough and patient with all of our questions. This was our first time visiting Tanzania or going on a safari so we had a lot of questions. She helped us pick the perfect safari for us and she was very accommodating. She also helped me arrange for an extra bottle of champagne to be placed in our room upon arrival since we were celebrating our anniversary and my wife’s birthday.
The Safari: We decided to do a three day safari that consisted of visits to Tarangerie National Park, the Ngorogoro Crater and Lake Manyara which turned out to be the perfect amount of time for us, especially since we were going to Zanzibar after the Safari. Three days at these different locations provided exactly what we were hoping for on our safari experience. Our guide was Abu and honestly he was the best part of our trip to Tanzania. He was personable, funny and very knowledgeable of all the wildlife and fauna we encountered. You could tell he took pride in his work and in his country and that made us feel like we were in the best hands.
Overall, we can’t say enough good things about our experience with Lion King. Their professionalism and services helped make our trip truly special. Can’t wait to come back and use them again!
