2 safaris: Ruaha (August), Mikumi (September); Reliable, great knowhow of - and respest for nature
My wife, our 2 kids (1y and 4y old) and I went on a 2-days safari with Max in Ruaha national park (August 2022) and a 1-day safari with my little family and my parents in Mikumi national park (September 2022)
Max has good communication skills so the arrangement and prepartion of both trips went very smooth, on top of that he was punctual and reliable.
Max was very kind and shares his knowledge about the parks and the animals with pleasure.
Our oldest son is quite talkative and active but that didn't seem to bother Max, on the contrary, he put our son on the front seat and gave him twice an amazing safari experience.
Best proof that we like(d) the Double G Safaris experience is propably that we booked a second time (Mikumi September) and we will book a 3rd time in the nearby future as well.
Tip; Max and his crew have several cars, I think you're free to request/discuss which kind of car you prefer the most (closed or open ..)

Magic Safaris
I did 2 magnificent Safaris in 2 different parks with Max, Mikumi for the day and 3 days in Ruaha Park. Max is passionate about safaris and all the animals that can be encountered there, a lot of knowledge and explanations about them. He never tires of admiring them and knows very well where to find them. And the magic of the show at the end of the evening, contemplating the stars to the sound of very close nocturnal animals. A pure happiness.
I highly recommend Max, always listening to make us happy. In addition, he is a very good driver in parks and especially on roads overloaded with trucks and buses, especially during transfers, which is not negligible.
His vehicles are equipped with very good tires compared to other agencies, he takes good care of them.
Thank you Max for all these beautiful memories.

Amazing tour
My wife and I were really happy to do another tour with Max. He organized a transfer from Ifakara to Mikumi and we did a safari there which was really amazing. He also organized the transfer to Dar es Salaam from where we went on with our journey.
The time in Mikumi was amazing and we saw a lot of animals and Max was eager to show and explain a lot to us.

Max for President
Reliable, safe, incredible and very interesting safari @Mikumi Nationalpark. Less tourists but more animals, so it’s worth the money if you compare to Hotspot areas like Serengeti. We appreciated the tour together with Max from Double G Safaris very much and can recommend it at all!

The best safari experience from Double G safaris
We had 2 really amazing days with doublegsafaris!! Our guide Max and the rest of the crew were so nice and made our stay there unforgettable! We were lucky to see all of the Big 4 animals that you can see in Mikumi and even a lot more 🤩 The camp is really new and nice and so close to the entrance of the park that sometimes we could even see some animals out of the window of our cabins 😍 we can highly recommend to go there for a unique safari experience!

huge disappointment
We had booked with Maximilian a stay for 3 days and 3 nights, first half day with the Masai, then 2 full days of safaris. Everything had started well, great welcome by the Double G Safaris team, very attentive team, 2 hours with the Masai... Maximilian arrived during our evening meal explaining to us that he had lost his mobile and our exchanges on the upcoming program while we had had him on the phone the day before to confirm everything. Small worry but after reading our exchanges, he validates the 2 days to come (2 days of safari), we pay him in cash and explains to us that he will not be our guide because he is too busy and but will give us someone we trust.
The next morning we leave serenely with the same guide who had taken us to visit the Masai village. He is adorable and we spend an unforgettable day.
On the way back, I talk to him about the next day. Surprised, he tells me that Maximilian had told him that it was over for us, that we were leaving the next day by train to Dar Es Salaam. Surprised, the worry is mounting, we try to contact Maximilian who does not answer us. We arrive at the camp thinking to see him to discuss it but we are told that he had to be absent and that he will not be there this evening! He sends us a simple message to tell us to pay the guide the entrance fee to Mikumi!
Our guide comes to tell me that Max has just called him, that he has bought our train tickets for the next morning at 7:00 and that it is like this and no other way!
The team on site is incomprehensible, our children are in tears to have to leave like this. We have the feeling of being kicked out of the camp.
Maximilian will not answer us anymore, our driver will have him on the phone but will not be able to do anything to change the situation. We leave sad, the team of the adorable camp with us is sad too.
Maximilian is a liar, a person without any morals.
Guide to avoid who gives a very sad image of his country where people are however so adorable.
