Unforgettable safari experience with exceptional guides
If you're thinking about going on a safari in Tanzania with SummitExpeditions, just do it. Seriously, I can't recommend it enough, especially with Godson as your guide. We did a 3-day safari, and it was hands down one of the best experiences ever.
From the moment we landed, everything was taken care of – airport transfer, accommodations, the whole shebang. We kicked things off at Tarangire National Park, then hit up the Ngorongoro Crater, and wrapped up at Lake Manyara. Each spot had its own magic, and Godson made sure we didn't miss a thing.
Speaking of Godson, he's the real deal. As a local, he's got this deep knowledge of the parks and the animals, which was a big plus compared to other tour operators. We got super lucky and saw the Big 5 plus a ton of other wildlife. Every time we had a question, Godson had an answer, usually sprinkled with some local culture and stories. Plus, he's just a really friendly guy – always smiling, always ready to help out.
On our last day, we met John, Godson's partner, when he joined us for the ride back to the airport. John was just as awesome and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed.
Just be careful when paying (I recommend contacting Godson or John personally on Whatsapp to make sure you are transferring to the right account) for security purposes.
Honestly, the whole trip was worth every penny. If you're on the fence about it, just go for it. The experience, the animals, the people – it’s something you'll remember forever. I totally recommend it and will definitely come back!

Excellent naturalist/guide. A+
Godson was one of the best naturalist/guides I’ve ever had lead a trip like this. We wanted to see as many birds and animals as we could in a 7 day trip and Godson did his utmost to find them. Not only did he know where various animals generally lived, but he educated us on details about each one. He is naturally curious and incredibly knowledgeable about almost all aspects of the Serengeti having lived his entire life here. He is also a Maasai tribal member so he could explain much about their lives and lifestyle. I’d gladly take another trip with him!
