Lion King Safari

September 29, 2019

Jumbari Family Safaris recently launched a seven-night Lion King inspired itinerary in an effort to help raise awareness about lion conservation.  The Lion King Adventure in Kenya begins with a visit to Sarova Lion Hill in Lake Nakuru National Park. On your way there, pass through Hells Gate National Park, which inspired the film, and see the sweeping cliffs of the gorge, the real-life Pride Rock and the Elephant Graveyard. Although you won’t see Simba and Nala, you are sure to catch a glimpse of giraffes, zebras, antelopes and warthogs.  You will also visit Sand River Mara in the Masai Mara, where your family will stay in canvas tents that blend seamlessly into the vast plains of the Masai Mara and might even catch a glimpse of migrating wildebeests and zebras as they cross the Sand River. The park is noted for its large prides of lions as well as elephants, buffaloes, leopards and rhinos.
