Incredible Safari Experience
A well organized and enjoyable 14 days safari into both Kenya and Tanzania.
Services were far beyond our expectations with both of their guides in Kenya and Tanzania. They were just awesome; helping us have such memorable and unforgettable experiences.
I hope to return to Africa another time to do a longer safari and would not hesitate to book with them again.

Amazing trip for our family of 5!
I began planning our Africa safari trip for our family of five (three teenagers) about a year ago. To see a diverse sat areas in Africa and visit at least two different national parks. With a family of five budget was also a significant consideration.
Baraka did an amazing job to create a creative itinerary that allowed us to go deep into Zimbabwe and also visit Botswana as well. The facilities he chose were fantastic and within the budget that I had laid out.
His follow up through the planning process and while we were in country was also exceptional.
I highly recommend Baraka and Good Earth Tours if you are looking for a Safari tour provider.
Baraka can provide my contact information if you have any specific questions you would like to discuss.

The best safari experience in Tanzania!
We just had our first-ever Safari experience in Tanzania and we had such a wonderful time. Our tour guide Fadhil was fantastic, and he made our trip memorable (July 1-6, 2024). He is experienced, friendly, patient, and accommodating. The hotels we stayed in were top-notch. The transportation which was a Land Cruiser, was comfortable with charging stations so we could make sure our camera and devices were ready to go.
We picked the five days Northern Tanzania safari on this trip. The first day when we arrived, we toured Arusha town and took it easy that day since we flew in from Hawaii and the flight was unbelievably long (25 hours). On the second day we started our game drive to the Ngorongoro National Park and our guide was able to find us many exotic animals to see up close including many lions, hyenas, leopard and rhinos. When we went back to the hotel that evening, we talked to another family, and they were surprised that our tour guide was able to find those animals in the park that they didn’t get to see.
After Ngorongoro, we headed to Serengeti for more game driving. We stayed at the Mbuzi Mawe Serena Camp. My husband booked the trip and I was extremely skeptical about staying at a camp in the middle of the safari but to my surprise, the camp was extremely comfortable and it had a bathroom on each tent. We were woken up each night by different animal sounds as they were probably extremely close to us. In Serengeti, our tour guide was also able to take us to visit one of the Masai villages and we saw how they lived and visited their school. It was the highlight of our trip.
On the second day in Serengeti, my husband told our guide he really wanted to see the great migration on this trip but unfortunately, we were three weeks behind the migration and the animals had left. Fadhil was able to drive us to West Serengeti to see the tail end of the migration. It was amazing to have thousands of animals following one another to Kenya. Our tour guide really went above and beyond to make our trip special. All the hotels we stayed in were clean and comfortable, and we felt extremely safe. Thanks again for the wonderful trip, we highly recommend this company!

Trip of a Lifetime! Shangaza!! (amazing)
Good Earth Tours was recommended to me by a friend who planned a safari for them 10 years ago and they cherished their experience! We were looking for a tour operator who would allow us to create a custom itinerary and Good Earth Tours not only allowed us to to do that but worked closely with us to guide us through the planning process. The agent/owner we worked with was Baraka. He was excellent to work with: knowledgeable, friendly, efficient and he genuinely cared about planning the perfect experience for us. Our itinerary turned out to be 22 days long, including 5 countries with safaris, Victoria Falls, and ending in Cape Town. All accommodations were lovely and everything went smoothly..no issues, no glitches! Our safari guides were extremely knowledgeable, kind and lots of fun. We saw the Big Five on our first game drive!!
Good Earth Tours did an amazing job from start to finish and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a tour operator for an African experience. In fact, I already have recommended them to friends! Thank you Baraka and Good Earth Tours for giving me a wonderfully unforgettable experience.

Flawless organization of our Africa Tour
Good Earth Tours and Safaris organized our tour to Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa. We worked with Baraka, their lead, starting in October of 2023. We outlined what we wanted to do and see and he had some great suggestions. Our trip was quite complex and included multiple locations like Zanzibar, Serengeti, NgoroNgoro, Tarangire, Victoria Falls and Cape Town. All the arrangements were fabulous. Baraka and his team were accessible and very focused on delivering the best experience for their customers. I would highly recommend them.
