Amazing and enthusiastic
We booked with get your guide. Process was very easy and straight forward. The tour guides asked us which animals we wanted to see/ excited to see and made an effort to find as many as they could. They were very informative and told us info I didn’t know about. The worst part was that the trip had to come to an end! A memorable and unforgettable experience.

Such lovely, informative tour guides, who made brilliant effort for us to see all animals we hoped
Me and my partner joined this tour from Zanzibar, the value for money was excellent, we had a safe flight, lovely lunch and saw many animals including giraffes, elephants and lions. The tour guides provided detailed background for all animals we saw and they let us stop and take photos.

Fantastic guide: perfect honeymoon safari
We came to Tanzania for our honeymoon and had an amazing safari with Hassan from Gosheni Safaris. He is super experienced and knowledgeable. We saw everything we came to see: a leopard, lions (including a pride eating their prey), and even a cheetah that climbed onto our car! We got incredible up-close photos of the lions from inside the car. Hassan explained everything in great detail: the animals, their behavior and how they hunt, the local tribes and people, plus the region's geography and history. He even had rose petals in the car for our honeymoon, a lovely touch. A genuinely nice guy too. Highly recommend!

An unforgettable safari
From the very beginning, the communication with Sadick was excellent. He always responded quickly, was very helpful and made everything possible for us. He listened to our wishes and tailored the safari to what we had imagined. The whole planning process was easy, personal and well organized, which made us feel very comfortable even before the safari started.
The safari itself was an absolutely amazing and unforgettable experience and we would do it all over again!
A very special thank you goes to our guide John and our driver Imani. We had a lot of fun with both of them throughout the safari. They were so kind, friendly and always made a huge effort to give us the best experience.
John spoke excellent German and impressed us with his knowledge of the national parks, nature and the wildlife. He explained so much to us and had an great eye for spotting animals. Thanks to John and Imani, we were able to see so many different animals and experience countless special moments.
Imani was an excellent driver and always friendly and cheerful. He also spoke very good English and shared a lot of his knowledge. We felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the whole safari. You could really tell that both John and Imani genuinely cared about making our experience as special as possible.
We would definitely do this safari again and can highly recommend it to anyone. We especially recommend John and Imani as a guide and driver. They truly made our safari unforgettable!
Thank you Sadick, John and Imani for organizing and creating such an incredible experience for us! 🦁🐘🦒❤️

An Unforgettable Madagascar Experience – Highly Recommend This Team!
Our trip to Madagascar was absolutely amazing, and so much of that came down to the incredible team who made it all possible. From start to finish, the experience felt personalized, thoughtfully planned, and genuinely focused on making sure we got the most out of our time in this beautiful and unique country.
**The communication was top-notch**, and we always felt well taken care of. The guides and drivers were outstanding, not only because of their knowledge and experience, but also because of the care, professionalism, and flexibility they brought to every part of the journey. We felt safe, comfortable, and in very good hands throughout the trip. Their local knowledge and passion for Madagascar turned what could have been a series of sightseeing stops into some of the most memorable moments of our travels.
If you love nature, wildlife, and experiencing the *real* Madagascar beyond the typical tourist destinations, I would absolutely recommend this team. The wildlife encounters, beautiful landscapes, unique ecosystems, and opportunities to learn about the country and its people made this a truly special experience. Having knowledgeable local guides who knew where to look, what to listen for, and how to make the most of each experience added so much value to the trip.
The accommodations were also outstanding and often exceeded our expectations. A special mention goes to **Relais de Mantadia in Andasibe**, which was a highlight for us. It was a fantastic place to stay and the perfect setting to appreciate the beauty of the surrounding rainforest.
A few things to know before travelling
Madagascar is an incredible destination, but it does require a little patience, flexibility, and a sense of adventure.
First, Air Madagascar has earned its nickname, “Air Maybe,” for a reason! Flight changes, cancellations, and last-minute itinerary adjustments can happen, so be prepared for plans to change. These challenges are largely outside the tour operator's control, but what really impressed us was how well the team handled them. They adapted, pivoted, communicated, and worked to find solutions so we could continue enjoying our trip. Their ability to manage the unexpected was a real testament to their experience and professionalism.
Second, infrastructure across the country is still developing, so expect some long days travelling by vehicle between destinations. Distances that might look manageable on a map can take considerably longer than anticipated. The journeys are part of the adventure, and the changing scenery gives you a glimpse into everyday life in Madagascar, but it is worth going in with realistic expectations.
Finally, some of the hikes in the national parks involve uneven ground, steep sections, roots, and challenging terrain. A reasonable level of fitness and sure footing can make a difference. If you have mobility concerns or prefer less strenuous walks, discuss this with the team beforehand, as routes and activities may be adaptable depending on the location.
Final thoughts
Madagascar is not necessarily the easiest destination to explore, but that is part of what makes it so rewarding. Its wildlife, landscapes, and culture are extraordinary, and having the right people to guide you through the experience makes all the difference.
This team delivered far more than just transportation and accommodation. They provided local expertise, reassurance, flexibility, thoughtful planning, and the kind of personal attention that allows you to truly enjoy a destination rather than worry about the logistics.
We came away with incredible memories and a much greater appreciation for Madagascar. If you are considering a trip and want a team that genuinely cares about your experience, knows the country well, and can handle the unexpected with professionalism and a positive attitude, I would highly recommend them without hesitation.
I have mentioned to the team that we would be open to answering any questions directly if people wanted to speak to a reference before booking.

Great service in budget prices
Overall I really liked how well the trip was organised in different places and venues, especially how courteous and nice James, our true guide, was through out the trip. I can not praise him enough for the great trip experience he provided throughout the week.
The entire trip was a great value for money, with comfort and convenience not compromised. I was traveling alone one first time in Kenya so had no issues with all the possible help I got before and during the trip by Lenchada team
