Amazing experience
5/5

We went on safari with Golden Trips Tanzania for 3 days on “Budget Camping”. We chose to visit the following national parks: Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Manyara. It was an incredible experience!

Reservation: we went through the “Safari Bookings” site. Within a few hours we had a response from Golden Trips via WhatsApp. Communications were made easily. The payment process was done easily and according to our preferences.

Staff/service: they were very professional and available for any questions or comments during the entire process. They came to meet us before and after our safari to answer our questions and listen to our feedback. This allowed us to leave without stress.

Price: we couldn't have found it more affordable! Initially, we were afraid of not being able to go on safari because the prices were too high. Everything was included in the price (park entrances, guide, 4x4, gasoline, overnight stay, meals, water). Super good value for money! Don't hesitate to scroll through the different options on "Safari Bookings" to find what suits you.

Safari: the experience was INCREDIBLE! Given the proximity of the 3 parks we did, the trips weren't too long and allowed us to spend more time in the parks. The 3 parks are very different and offer you a different experience. The guide was very professional. Normally, in this type of safari, there are a maximum of 6 travelers per 4x4. There was just 1 day when we were 7 and communications with the guide were more difficult because we were seated at the back and could hear the information less well. But it's just a detail.

Camping/nights: the only point on which we really have anything to complain about. The site was super pretty and quiet. We had a good nights sleep. By paying only the "Camping Budget", we knew that we were not going to come across a luxury campsite and therefore some problems with water and cleanliness...

Atmosphere: this type of safari allows you to meet lots of people. It was super enjoyable and even solo the experience must be great.

Thank you to Golden Trips Tanzania for this unforgettable experience that I highly recommend to any traveler!!!

Excellent, professional, and nice.
5/5

The 4-day hiking tour in the Usambara mountains was absolutely amazing. Summing up our whole Tanzanian trip, this hike was the absolute highlight. We walked in wild nature, cultivated fields, and through villages. People were so friendly. A great way to get a broader picture of the countryside of Tanzania. Our guide, Kibwana, guided us in an excellent way through this hike. He taught us so much about plants, fruits and animals as we walked along. He is also outstanding when in comes to spotting chameleons. We saw so many of them. Unexpected things are bound to happen when you take a hike like this. Kibwana is then extraordinarily good at solving everything. We are very pleased to have had Kibwana with us during this hike. He is absolutely great.

Tarangire Nationalpark day trip
5/5

We enjoyed a amazing tour with Golden Trips Tanzania and managed to see a lot of animals in the Tarangire Nationalpark. The communication beforehand and afterwards was professional and reliable. Tour guide Allan is a lovely person with lots of knowledge, an interesting life story, and wonderfully patient driving skills. It couldn’t have been any better. We can highly recommend this trip to other travellers.

Knowledgeable, reliable and very friendly
5/5

We did a three day tour to Lake Eyasi and the Ngorongoro highlands. It wasn't really directed at seeing wildlife but mainly directed at experiencing the life of Datoga and the Hadzabe people in the Lake Eyasi area. Besides that we also visited Olduvai Gorge and the museum about all the archeological and geographic research in this area. Fascinating. Due to very bad weather we couldn't visit Laetoli, where the actual footsteps are discovered but an improvised visit to the shifting sands made up for that. Sam is a good driver and everything was very well organised.

He was helpful and made our travel smooth and as relaxing as possible
5/5

We had the best safari ever imaginable and it was due to this tour company. From the day we decided to go ahead they were very understanding as we worked through our plans. Our contact Joel was very, very helpful and understanding. Once we landed in Kilimanjaro we were greeted by a company representative to take to our 1st lodge and gave a tour schedule. Our guide for the next 6 days, Edga, was fantastic and very knowledgeable and a keen eye for spotting animals. Our whole ten days ran like clock work, we highly recommend using this company if your looking for the Serengeti/Zanzibar experience.

Golden Trips took enormous effort to provide tailor-made service for our group. From briefing to responsible driving, troubleshooting during the trip until debriefing back in Arusha, the dedication could be felt and made our trip so worthwhile! Special thanks to our knowledgeable driver Edga!

Our agent was also very good, as soon as we arrived at the airport someone was waiting for us, all the routes were taken into account in relation to the hotels we had chosen. Very good service!

Great experience
5/5

Thank you for this great experience with Golden Trips Tansania.Everything worked out exactly as we had imagined. Joel patiently answered all of our questions in advance. The choice of lodge was great and we would book with Golden Tanzania again at any time. Our guide Daniel was very nice and read our wishes regarding the safari from our eyes. He was the best guide you could ask for.

Very flexible, knowledgable, and capable of improvisation
5/5

It was a special tour in september 2021, because there was no fixed plan as is usually the case when you take a safari in Tanzania. It was at the end of the Covid restrictions and I decided to rent a car and driver instead of going by public transport. It was a mix of visiting people and holiday and the plan was changing from day to day. Samson was very capable of adapting himself to my ideas and give good advise. He arranged a hike into Empakaai Crater with the same ease as we did an excursion to Snake Park with six primary school kids. We also visited Lake Natron by car.
In fact it all went so well, that I convinced six people from my country to make a safari with Golden Trips and Samson this year (2023) in November I really trust everything will be fine, I will be there as well!
