He was incredibly knowledgeable and made it so much fun!
We had an amazing time on our Safari! Every day was more incredible than the next! Our guide, Adam, was able to answer every question we had about the animals, the parks, the culture and anything else we wanted to know. He was also was able to find so many different animals, in different settings, for us to see.
The tented lodges we stayed at each night were absolutely beautiful with great food and service! Going to sleep hearing lions roaring was a highlight of our trip!
This was so easy to book and when we needed something changed, they were great about getting back to us quickly and made it easy to accommodate our needs. We felt very safe and taken care of from the minute we landed at the airport.
This was a life changing trip and we have recommended it to all of our friends and family. Lion King Adventures is absolutely the company to book with, and everyone should have this experience!

Fabulous safari company with excellent service from start to finish.
From the very first communication with a Lion King representative in their office to our wonderful safari guide Immanuel, there is nothing more to say but book your safari experience with this company. Immanuel was nothing but brilliant with his excellent knowledge, ensuring we saw all of the animals, which also included a rare and wonderful sighting of the endangered black rhino with her baby. Immanuel never failed in getting us the best photo opportunities. Some advice would be to ask for Immanuel if you can as your guide! We stayed in some excellent accommodations, including the Arusha Coffee Lodge and the Lemala Nanyukie in the Serengeti. Thank you Lion King Adventures.

Lion King Adventures were absolutely amazing, everything was perfect!
We had the best holiday with Lion King Adventures. The initial contact and planning were so professional with emails answered in a timely manner. Changes to our itinerary and dietary restrictions were accommodated. Once we arrived in Tanzania everything went very smoothly. Our safari guide, Aziz, was absolutely amazing. He was great at spotting animals and getting us great angles for picture taking. His knowledge about each of the animals and birds that we saw was fascinating and we learned a lot. His insight into other topics from the history of Tanzania to schooling to video games was interesting and enriched our understanding of this beautiful country. The hotels and lodges that we stayed in were so spacious and clean and the food was delicious! Our transfer to Zanzibar was seamless. We were very sad to leave the safari and especially our guide, Aziz. We had a wonderful time due to his professionalism, knowledge and humor and feel like he is family now! A big than you to Lion King Adventures!

Unforgettable honeymoon experience
We loved using Lion King when planning our honeymoon. They were helpful in providing recommendations and adjusting the itinerary for our requests and last minute changes. We used Lion King for a 5-day safari spanning 4 national parks, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. The guide, Freddie, was knowledgeable, helpful, and a fun person. In traveling to another country, Lion King was a very reliable counterparty to communicate with and set up this trip!

Incredible Safari experience -especially with Aziz our guide
We thoroughly enjoyed our honeymoon Safari experience with Lion King Adventures. We strongly recommend Aziz our safari guide, who was incredibly knowledgable about all animals we saw (from small as Ant lions to as large as the Eland). Aziz was also friendly, spoke perfect English, was always on time and made our Safari experience even more special. We saw all the big five, and many many more. The vehicle was comfortable and spacious, and fully stocked with refreshing cold drinks. Would recommend this company to anyone wanting to have a great Safari experience.

Exceptional tour operator who delivers a first rate Safari!
An absolutely amazing trip! We saw virtually every animal you can imagine as well as animal behaviour - mating, fighting, devouring kills, caring for their young, herds and solos. The migration of the wildebeests was spectacular to see. The views from the hot air balloon were breathtaking! The accommodations were varied (hotels, bush camps, etc) and all very comfortable with great and plentiful meals. Our guide, Luther, was just the best - personable, competent, knowledgeable, patient, great driver. He worked tirelessly to ensure we had an outstanding experience, (which we did) always on the lookout for wildlife, willing to take as much time at any location as we wanted, willing to alter plans to suit our wishes. Pendo, our coordinator at the office, was a terrific communicator and ensured that our trip went off flawlessly. She was on top of everything and keen to be of assistance whenever needed. Lion King Adventures is a first rate company and I would highly recommend it to anyone contemplating an African Safari!

Delivers on its promises...
Our 10-day Lion King safari met all our expectations. We saw an amazing number of animals and the accomodations with one exception were fine (and the other wasn't awful, just not ready for prime time yet.) We booked the middle level package, so there was a nice mix of top lodges and middling camping lodges as you would expect. Our guide, Joseph, was outstanding. With his eight years of experience he was able to spot hidden animals with incredible accuracy and could identify not just the big beasts but the birds and smaller critters as well--which were of particular interest to us. His depth of knowledge was really amazing and his driving skills were perfect--never a sense of concern but we didn't get stuck behind the crowds either. The back office was less than ideal leading up to the event (it was unclear when we were supposed to pay the balance after making a deposit and had our itinerary changed because we hadn't paid well befor the due date. Some notice earlier would have been nice). Pay the balance at least a few months early. Also, be prepared to have some difficulty paying--no credit cards, no checks. We had to sign up for the Wise system and do a foreign bank transfer through it, which left us a little worried. All went fine. Also, the ATMs are picky in Arusha and wouldn't take any of our cards for cash withdrawals. Bring your tipping cash with you. One other tip--we chose to come a day early and do a Kilimanjaro short hike. Don't bother. Unless you are going to truly hike the mountain, the day trip is dull and not worth the time or money. In th end this was a great trip--we chose Lion King because our son and his fiancee had used them during the Covid year and recommended them highly. We do too.
