(TRAVPR.COM) UK - April 3rd, 2019 -

Acacia Africa is running its Amazing Animal Encounters Sale to celebrate the upcoming release of the Lion King on July 19, 2019 (which marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the original film).

Arno Delport, comments, “When the “Lion King” was first released back in 1994, it brought the Serengeti and the Olduvai Gorge to life on the big screen, movie goers inspired by the global Disney hit flocking to the locations on which the animation was based. This time around, Tanzania can probably expect much the same, if not a greater stampede of "set-jetters," the remake a live-action version, with Beyonce lending her voice to Nala.”

From stalking the Serengeti’s big cats by 4x4 in Tanzania to more intimate walks with rhinos in Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park, there’s an experience on offer for all types of safari goers. And, covering the operator’s camping and accommodated overland tours and small group trips, the promo is open to Africa fans from eight years, many of the select departures running through the main school holiday period.  All bookings should be made by 30 April.
