GodFree is the best tour guide I have ever travelled with. Very fun, very serious, very aware.
Our trip to Tanzania was honestly great! We explored the Serengeti, Tarangire, the olduvai gorge and the crater of humankind. Apart from checking almost every animal off our list, we had the oportunity to connect with such powerful and energetic places. This kind of disconnection and self connection is not easy to come by now a days.
Godfree was our tourguide. He is honestly one of the nicest people I have met. We not only taught me to speak swahili in 4 days but he also proved him self as a sensitive person and a nature lover and protector. He is very smart and serious in what he does but he is always very fun aswell. I would recomment Godfree to anyone who is looking to have an amazing, safe and unforgettable experience in Tanzania.

Over 20 years of experience and safe for women only groups
We traveled in a group of 6 women for a 50th birthday celebration. Michael treated us like family. Michael and Nelson were very flexible and able to change plans throughout the trip to locate the animals and curate the best safari experience possible.
In our first camp,
we were treated to an amazing luxury bush tent experience - an elephant even walked through our camp one morning!
A group of 30 giraffes crossed a road in front of us in Tarangire, the next day an elephant herd (with babies!!!) passed our truck and we witnessed the elephants picking up and blowing the red sand to moisturize after their baths. We also caught several hippos bathing and splashing around. And we cannot forget the sightings of ostriches and various species of antelope.
Michael was informative about the history of not only the wildlife, but also the geology and people of Tanzania. We had a quick stop at the home of the Leakey's research labs and the nutcracker man and homo habilis.
Upon entering the Serengeti a pride of lions was waiting for us just beyond the gate!!! It was almost as though it was staged it was such a spectacular sighting. Before coming on the safari, I was not prepared for the awesome spectacle of witnessing the mass of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle and impala in migration. The single file lines of animals and the sheer numbers are awe inspiring.
Ngorongoro crater was straight out of a story book. It was like visiting Noah's Ark. We were able to view 3 rhinos, flocks of pink flamingos, and so many other large bird varieties as well as the rest of the animals - except giraffes which cannot scale the crater walls!
We stayed at several Serena properties, and perhaps my favorite one was the tent camp, Mbuzi Mawe. It is perched above the plain with a stunning view, baboons also camped in the property and came home to join us for dinner.
The final park we visited Lake Manyara Park, provided close access to view monkeys and baboons. It was just unbelievable.
Because of the experience that Michael and Nelson provided, I feel like Tanzania is home and I am already planning my next trip with Cape Dogs!

SAFARI? HABARI!
Just returned from an exciting private Safari with Migration Venture.
Denis is a dynamic young tour guide with an excellent sight able to spot animals from miles...4 on 5 of the bigs!!!
Also from Lake Natron to Olduvai Gorge we could rely on the support of other local guides very knowledgeable regarding flora and fauna copiously present all around us.
Tented accommodations are an absolute must if you truly want to experience the authentic safari, especially in the Serengeti, and game drives quite exciting!
Thank you Migration Venture, I had an incredible birthday celebration!

Great experience, great people
We just arrived from the three days tour. Tired, confused but enthusiastic. Simon Ngowa was the complete man for us, a great guy. Super driver, biologyst, kind interface, a multiple cultural guide, who take care of us in every moment. The Oakland Tours and Safari provide us a reliable car, and we can override the rough roads.
Thank you for all you did for us! Recomand all.

Best safari tour ever
I recently experienced an unforgettable safari tour that exceeded all expectations. The knowledgeable and passionate guide made the adventure educational and thrilling, leading us to witness an incredible array of wildlife, including the Big Five, in their natural habitat. The accommodations were comfortable and perfectly situated to provide stunning views of the landscape, adding to the authentic safari experience. What stood out most was the tour's commitment to sustainability, ensuring our presence had minimal impact on the environment.
Overall, this safari was a perfect blend of excitement, education, and relaxation, making it an adventure I will cherish forever.

Excellent safari company
We did a photographic safari with Maasai Wanderings and Images of Wildlife UK ( Sarah Skinner). Simon and Shaban were excellent guides. They could spot animals that were hidden away as well as answer questions about animal behavior and the land. We always felt safe during the safari and the driving was safe on a variety of terrain.

Excellent and unforgettable experience
We had a wonderful trip. We saw so many animals, really incredible. The guide was really good as well. He knows exactly where to go to see the animals. He has a good knowledge of the parks and finds alternative routes to see the most beautiful animals.
