Wow! What an unforgettable honeymoon safari with Lion King Adventures! This trip exceeded every expectation and was truly the experience of a lifetime. From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized (thank you Florida!), and the care we received throughout the journey was exceptional. Our guide, Jafari, was nothing short of amazing. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and genuinely kind, and his passion for both wildlife and Tanzanian history made every day even more special. His expertise put us in the right place at the right time, again and again. Thanks to Jafari, we had unbelievable wildlife sightings, including leopards in the Serengeti, rhinos in the Ngorongoro Crater, lions in each park (especially rare sightings in Lake Manyara), and incredible up-close encounters with elephants in every park. He made sure we saw everything on our wishlist— lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalo, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas — and more. Every game drive felt exciting and unforgettable. The lodges were stunning, the food was incredible, and the level of hospitality was beyond anything we’ve experienced before. The warmth, kindness, and care from everyone we met made this trip even more meaningful. This was the perfect honeymoon and a true once-in-a-lifetime experience. We highly recommend Lion King Adventures to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania, and we cannot recommend our guide, Jafari, enough— he truly made this trip extraordinary. 10/10 experience all around!

We cannot say enough positive things about Lion King Adventures! We found this company from a friend’s recommendation and couldn’t be happier with what they put together for our honeymoon. Florida from the office created a wonderful itinerary, was very responsive to all questions, and helped us have the trip of our lifetime. We are especially grateful for our guide, Jafari. He brought us on the best tour of our lives. My husband and I have always dreamed of coming on a safari trip to Tanzania, but Jafari really brought this dream to life. We saw so many animals, more than in our wildest dreams! He was so knowledgeable and taught us so much about our favorite animals. He guided us with kindness, patience, and care. Thank you, Jafari, and the Lion King team for exceeding our expectations in every way. We will be recommending this team to all of our friends, and anyone who has the opportunity to travel to Tanzania on safari should absolutely choose this team!

We spent five unforgettable days on safari with Clement, and I truly cannot imagine a better guide. From the very first day, his enthusiasm and deep knowledge of wildlife stood out. Clement took the time to point out special moments we never would have missed on our own, like identifying twin elephants, explaining that certain leopards were teenagers, and sharing insights into animal behavior that made every sighting feel meaningful. Clement knows each park like the back of his hand and has an incredible instinct for where to be. Our best day was in the Serengeti, where he found us an entire pride of over 15 lions resting on a rock—one of the most surreal moments of my life—followed by two leopard sightings the same day. Over the five days, we were able to see all of the Big Five. What also truly stood out was how safe and confident Clement made us feel. One day, we experienced a torrential downpour that caused flooding on the roads, yet Clement calmly navigated the conditions and still made sure we could go on a game drive. His skill, experience, and composure in challenging weather made us feel completely at ease throughout the trip. Clement is passionate, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly capable. If you’re fortunate enough to have him as your guide, your safari will be unforgettable.

Lion King Adventures was the best decision for our trip to Tanzania. They are very flexible and adapt the plans to the taste and need of the client. In our case, we took the 12-day tour, but reduced one night I made certain changes to the itinerary and destinations. Nickson Obedi was the one who organized the plan and was always in touch and watching everything before the trip. They are very clear in the instructions and the steps to follow. During the safari, we were with Fred Elias, who has 12 years of experience as a guide and shows it, as he is able to see animals where others pass by. Fred was always available and ready for anything we needed, and thanks to him the experience was unmatched. It should be noted that our trip was scheduled for three weeks after the protests over the elections. Back then, the internet was suspended in the country, but it was only restored, Nick contacted us and assured us that everything returned to normal... And it did. We never felt in danger or at risk of anything, and we saw nothing out of the ordinary. Lion King is highly recommended. It makes the trip a very easy experience.

AMAZING. My husband and I planned an 11 Days Honeymoon Luxury Safari, Natron Visit & Zanzibar with Lion King Adventures Our safari took us to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Natron from November 20th to the 27th with transfer to Zanzibar for 3 days afterwards. From the start communication with our trip coordinator Nickson Obedi was smooth. He was very responsive and was able to cater to our preferences. All the accommodations they suggested were amazing with great service. Our guide Fred Elias was very experienced and professional. Our experience would not have been the same without him! He answered all our questions about the animals and culture. He asked us what we wanted to see and we got to see all of them in the wild! From the big 5 to the more random animals like the hyrax. He has an amazing eye. At one point we were driving behind another jeep and Fred stopped was able to spot in the distance a pride of 15 lions they completely missed. There was a little hiccup with transportation to the airport but one call to Nick and it was fixed without a hitch. We at first were hesitant to come after the election protests but the team assured us safety was a priority and the situation at the moment was ok for tourists so we decided to come and are glad we did. We took the usual precautions when traveling to a foreign country and never felt unsafe. It was an unforgettable honeymoon.

Frederick (Guide): 5/5 Frederick was phenomenal—knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly kind. He answered every question we threw at him, kept us fed and on schedule, and even handled my lost luggage by coordinating closely with Rose from the office. When we got a flat tire, he had it changed before I even returned from a bathroom break. He also took amazing photos for us using his own lens on my camera—both of the animals candids of us—which became some of our favorite souvenirs. We saw the Big 5, baby cheetahs, giraffes, hippos and so much more! Frederick made us feel comfortable from the first day, and we highly recommend requesting him for your safari. Lion King Adventures (Company): 4/5 Our overall experience with Lion King was very good. From airport pickup in Arusha to our drop-off in Zanzibar, the trip was smooth with very few hiccups. Communication around my lost luggage was great, and it arrived quickly thanks to the team. Where things fell short was excursion planning. Early in the process, we were told we could customize activities, but as the trip approached, it became difficult to get clear descriptions of what was booked for us already. This led to confusion about what counted as a Lion King–organized excursion versus a separate activity just booked through Trip Advisor. The safari itself was incredible, but clearer pre-trip communication would have made the planning experience stronger by allowing us to better pack and prep tips/money for the additional guides.

My wife and I organized a honeymoon with Lion King after doing extensive research. We wanted to experience the Great Migration and Ngorongoro Crater, as well as other locations, ending with some beach time in Zanzibar to process everything. Our guide, Freddie, was fantastic. He knew where all the key animals were. We even got to see both the white and black rhinos. My wife loves elephants, and we saw many elephants every day on safari, thanks to Freddie. Book Freddie if you can, he’s got great knowledge and a good sense of humor. The hotels were all great and unique. They had the convenience of the West with the feel of Africa. Each one was memorable. We loved the Lion King tent experience in the Serengeti. We stayed 2 days, but definitely could have stayed a lot longer. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations and would definitely recommend.
