Adventurous experience
Our basic accomodation tour with Lion King adventures was absolutely great. Very helpful and informative guide showing and telling us about everything we would ask about and more. The 5 big was captured, and a lot more. We got what we expected and a lot more.
We recommend Lion King adventures

An Exceptional Safari Experience with Outstanding Service
Our safari with Lion King Adventures exceeded every expectation. The communication was fast, clear, and professional from the very first message. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey. Every detail was perfectly organized — hotels, meals, routes, game drives — everything was handled with care and precision. We saw the Big Five, stunning landscapes, and experienced Tanzania in the most authentic way. Truly great value for money and a company you can fully rely on. Highly recommended!

Wonderful wonderful wonderful
I cannot fault Lion King Adventures on anything. They were great. Nickson who gave us the quote, Rose who dealt with any pre trip questions and Murshid our guide for the safari. He was so friendly, great at spotting the animals and a very careful driver. I really enjoyed our picnics, they were special. Thank you for the wine too. Very nice. We didn't see leopards, seemingly they are very difficult to spot but we saw everything else and more. My favourite day was when we visited Ngorogoro Caldera. I loved it so much. What a fantastic experience.

Very professional safari tour company and guide - would 100 perecent recommend
A very big thank you to Naurey and the Lion King team for arranging our safari tour in Tanzania and our 4 days of relaxation on Zanzibar.
We had a fantastic holiday and appreciate all your efforts in making our trip so memorable.
Our safari guide Goody was such a lovely man and a super guide, he had fantastic knowledge of all the wildlife and was extremely respectful of the animals' welfare. Six days in the jeep were six incredibly special days, we saw all the animals we could hope to see, and Goody went above and beyond to ensure we had a super memorable holiday.
Naurey took care of all the bookings behind the scenes, every hotel we wanted and the room type we requested was delivered, all transfers were arranged and on time.
We were initially unsure about booking a tour directly with a company in Tanzania, rather than booking through a UK operator, but it was definitely the right choice and we would have no hesitation in recommending Lion King Adventures for a perfect safari - thank you very much.

Vacation of a Lifetime
It has been almost 2 weeks since we returned from our safari, and my husband and I talk and reminisce everyday about our journey. Day 1 began with Simon meeting us at the airport and driving us to our first hotel. Out in all her glory was Mount Kilimanjaro. We came to find out the next day, from our guide Khalifa, that Mt. Kilimanjaro is known as the "shy lady" because she is usually hiding behind clouds and not visible. But on our first day we got to see this wonder and that set the tone for the rest of our safari. The next day we met our guide, Khalifa Shabani. We spent the next 5 days with Khalifa. Khalifa was just one of a kind! He was incredibly knowledgeable of all the animals, wildlife and vegetation we saw and that we asked about. Khalifa prepped the Land Cruiser for each day of our journey; it was clean and fully stocked with beverages. Khalifa was super patient with all my questions and was very helpful in helping me when I mentioned that I wanted to take a carving of and elephant (my favorite animal) home. He knew exactly where to take us and helped us out with pricing. We could not have asked for a better guide! Now Lion King Adventures makes this journey a total "no brainer." That is, once you receive your schedule everything runs smoothly and like clockwork. Everything from airport/lodging transfers, meals, excursions and additional activities (we opted for a hot air balloon experience over the Serengeti) that interest you. The hotels, lodges and tented camps arranged through Lion King Adventures were beautiful and luxurious. The food at each of these locations was outstanding and all the staff was accommodating and helpful. And lunch during our safari outings, was of restaurant quality! Our accommodations at Zanzibar were just as beautiful and was the perfect place for R&R after our safari. We cannot say enough about our experience with Lion King Adventures and about our guide Khalifa. Everything about our 11-day safari and beach (Zanzibar) vacation was memorable, unique, perfect and an experience that will live with us forever. Thank you, Lion King, thank you Khalifa, we hope to one day be back!

Amazing honeymoon experience!
We had an incredible experience with Lion King Adventures! We booked with them for our honeymoon and are very happy with our choice. They were incredibly informative and responsive with any request regarding packing, expectations, etc. Our guide, Shafino, was the best of the best. His knowledge of the animals, the ecosystem, and the culture can’t be beat. We got the full safari experience and couldn’t be more grateful for this once in a lifetime experience!

Great Safari Experience
We had an incredible safari experience with Lion King Adventures. Their office staff was very helpful, informative, and they communicate very well. They give you a pdf with all the information of your trip with pictures included which was very nice. Our pick ups to and from the airport were on time and hassle free. They also helped us arrange our stay and transportation in Zanzibar where we stayed after our Safari. Our guide on Safari, Shafino, is extremely smart and has many years of experience as a guide. We learned so much from him and he worked extremely hard! We were lucky enough to see all of the big 9 thanks to his knowledge of the parks and his relationships with the other guides. Tanzania is so special and extremely beautiful and you will not regret your decision to visit and see the beauty this country has to offer. Thank you Lion King Adventures!

A seamless, once-in-a-lifetime safari experience with Lion King
We communicated with Jovitha during the quote and Naurey handled all the organization, and from start to finish everything was seamless and easy. Our guide, Salehe Mkwanda, was fantastic—knowledgeable, fun, and full of stories that went beyond the usual animal facts. The team was extremely flexible, accommodating our requests to add an extra day or change accommodations, and they also arranged smooth airport transfers. Even though we did everything by email, it all felt effortless.
Over 8 days, we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, and every day was packed with unforgettable wildlife encounters. We saw the Big Five, baby cheetahs with their mama, lions almost every day, and even got very close to the river crossing. Staying at the different camps added to the adventure: at one tented camp we could hear hippos grunting at night, watched dik-diks chasing each other by our tent, and saw monkeys filling the trees.
The scenery, wildlife, and atmosphere at each stop were simply spectacular, from sunrises and sunsets right at the camps to the wide-open plains of the Serengeti. A safari like this isn’t cheap, but with Lion King, we felt we got excellent value for money. The organization, the guides, and the unforgettable experiences made every penny worth it. From start to finish, it was all about relaxing, enjoying the adventure, and making memories—truly a once-in-a-lifetime safari.

Quality
I worked with Lion King Adventures to bring a group of 12 people to Tanzania. As a frequent traveler and someone who has been to Tanzania before, I had a high standard for what I expected for my group. Lion King did not disappoint. The trucks were the nicest we saw on the whole trip - squeaky clean, well-maintained, and ran well. Our driver/guides - Salhe and Gilbert - were phenomenal. Both are so knowledgeable, kind, funny, and fit right into our group like we were old friends. The office staff was great at providing on the ground service for my group whenever I had questions or needed to make on the go changes. If you're looking for a company that will deliver the Tanzania experience of your dreams, don't even hesitate. 5 stars, would totally recommend.
