Exceeded all Expectations

Our 9-day safari in Tanzania with Lion King Adventures exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived until the final day, every detail was handled professionally, making the entire experience seamless and unforgettable. The true highlight of our trip was our guide, Gilbert. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about Tanzania’s wildlife, culture, and conservation. His ability to spot animals was nothing short of amazing—we saw the Big Five and countless other incredible animals, often with front-row views. Gilbert always made sure we had the best experience possible, whether positioning the vehicle perfectly for photos, answering our endless questions, or sharing fascinating insights about the parks and the local communities. The accommodations, meals, and itinerary were outstanding, and each day seemed to top the one before. From breathtaking sunrises on the savanna to unforgettable wildlife encounters, every moment felt like something out of a documentary. If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, we cannot recommend Lion King Adventures highly enough. Ask for Gilbert if you can—you won’t find a better guide. His expertise, kindness, and enthusiasm turned an incredible safari into the trip of a lifetime. Thank you, Lion King Adventures and Gilbert, for memories our family will cherish forever. We hope to return someday!

Mkwanda at Lion King adventures is the best. He went out of his way to help us see the big 5 and the big 5 babies!!! He was beyond helpful and respectful to everyone. He got us so close and repositioned if needed for the best pictures. Book with him he is the absolute best! I will be back and I will be back for Mkwanda!

Strongly Recommend Lion King and Mwita!

After spending 10 days on safari in Tanzania with Lion King Adventures, we can confidently say it was one of the most incredible trips we've ever taken. Every day brought something new, and somehow the experience just kept getting better. The biggest reason for that was our guide, Mwita. He was outstanding. His knowledge of the Serengeti and its wildlife was impressive, but what we appreciated most was how genuinely invested he was in making sure we had the best experience possible. He had an amazing ability to spot animals we would have driven right past, and he always seemed to know where to be for unforgettable sightings. We learned so much from him, and his enthusiasm made every game drive fun and exciting. Over the course of the trip, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife and landscapes, and there were countless moments where we simply couldn't believe what we were witnessing. Having someone as experienced and passionate as Mwita made those moments even more special. Lion King Adventures did a fantastic job from beginning to end. Communication was excellent, the accommodations were comfortable and well chosen, and everything ran smoothly throughout the trip. We always felt well taken care of. If you're thinking about a safari in Tanzania, we highly recommend Lion King Adventures. And if you're lucky enough to have Mwita as your guide, you're in for something truly special. We came home with amazing memories, incredible photos, and a strong desire to return someday.

Amazing Experience

Spectacular safari experience. Everything was very well organized. The vehicle was comfortable and stocked with cold beverages. Our guide, Benjamin, took exceptional care of us. He explained everything calmly and clearly, always anticipating our needs. He shared valuable insights about the activities, local culture, and animal behavior. He was genuinely kind and welcoming. I felt truly cared for, which allowed me to fully enjoy an unforgettable experience.

Thank you all, I had a great time on this trip, and your service is excellent, and the hotels you booked are all very good, and I would like to especially praise the guide Enock, he is really very good, and very clean, and can find many animals, and his driving skills are also good. He is a very, very good guide.

Incredible nature, superb tour company

We went on the 9-day migration safari oerganised by Lion King and had an incredible time. Lion King organised the tour for us at very short notice, and were very flexible with their timelines and accommodated our needs as honeymooners. We saw all Big Five and so much more, including what felt like a vast sea of Wildebeest and Zebra, probably close to 100 lions, leopards and everything else imaginable. In particular we would emphasize that our guide, Haruni, was exemplary! Very professional, friendly, and can spot a crouching lion a mile away! We also had some medical needs due to circumstances prior to arrival to Tanzania and Haruni took us round and round to the various pharmacies available, showing great flexibility with the schedule and timelines. Thank you so much Haruni, Florida, Justin and the Lion King team, we hope to do this with you again!

Great safari experience with an excellent tour guide!

The Lion King staff did a great job accommodating our needs and arranged all plans as we had agreed — no surprises or disappointments. Their hotel and activity recommendations (including the partner companies) were great. All the hotels and luxury camps were interesting, comfortable and clean. Our tour guide, Mr Haruni, was friendly and accommodated all our needs. He was great at finding animals — so many more than I had expected. He is very knowledgeable about the parks, animals and nature, and patient and willing to explain anything. All of this within our budget — an incredible experience and very highly recommended Lion King and Haruni.
