Experience of a lifetime! Lion King Adventure is first class in providing a luxury Safari adventure across Tanzania. From booking to departure, Pendo provided exquisite custom services incoordination of our flights, lodging, COVID testing, and provided great recommendations for trip length, locations - and answered every questions we had. She even coordinated a surprise birthday cake for my husband at our stay in the Serengeti. We selected the luxury five day four night northern circuit tour. The hotels, lodges, and luxury tent sites were exquisite and top-notch. We received all the options across the parks and quickly recognized Lion King Adventures was perfect for us. They provided several options and price quotes to match our budget and requests. We even decided to stay for an extra day to explore Kilimanjaro - we are glad we did. Our guide, Gilbert, was an amazing guide with a wealth of knowledge and history of the people who live in the area of off the land! A joy to be with and always made sure we had everything we needed and then some. A true subject matter expert. We felt extremely safe with him; he always looked after our belongings; and ensured the car was locked. We never felt pressured to rush, and he did a great job explaining our day, travel and itinerary so we knew what was next. We initially started our research online and quickly recognized lion King adventures as a stand out company with their amazing reviews from other guests, to their ease navigation on the website and ability to alter lodging locations depending on our preference and extremely quick response. We made a last-minute booking and received exceptional coordination from Pendo every step of the way. She went above and beyond. We would highly recommend repeating our adventure to any of our friends and family looking to experience a Safari in Tanzania.
