A n excellent holiday
4/5

Our holiday with Godson Adventures exceeded our expectations. Right form the initial enquiry we received excellent service, communication was prompt and efficient and they took time to understand our requirements and to create an appropriate itinerary. All of the arrangements were exactly as specified in the itinerary, accommodation was very comforatble, food was very good, and our guide, Ashley, was the best. His knowledge of widlife and local culture and enthusiasm to share this with us made our holiday. We can't thank him enough. W
I thoroughly recommend Godson Adventures for your safari tour in Tanzania - a beautiful country.

Amazing experiences!
4/5

My boyfriend and I tok the 5 days safari in Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha, and it was amazing. We arrived day before and there was somebody to pick us up from the hotel the day safari started, then they drive us to the office (a very small room inside some building), since we were earlier than the office worker (it was closed) we had to pay for the trip in the car, what was very weird for me, and i was just praying that it was the wright person i was giving money to, but they had the receipt with my deposit transfer. It went well and when the office lady came we could wait for the bus inside the building with two other clients.
The driver, Sammy, was kind to tell us some informations about places we went to and animals we saw but since sometimes we were sitting on the back of the bus, and there was a lot of noise we couldn't hear everything, such a pity.
Sammy did everything he could to give us the best experience during the whole trip, even when the car broke down he organized an additional activity for the whole group of 7 people, that we did not pay for.
Leaving in tents in Mitimingi Eco Camp was not exactly as i expected but it was enough for two nights of sleep, food was ok and it was almost warm water after some time. We enjoyed the budget tent accommodation. The next two nights were in regular hostel and guest house with good housing standards.
Since people in our group had ordered different tours we had to split on the 4th day and me and my boyfriend stayed alone the last day with our new driver Joseph where we went to Hells gate national park where we rent bikes, were climbing and hiking. It was very relaxing day.
After tour we were transferred to our hotel.

4/5

My wife and I normally traveled by self-drive or train and we have never joined a tour. It was our first time experience of a guided 10 days package and we enjoyed it thoroughly as planning was done by the company and the guide did my normal job as a driver.

Created great memories and opportunities for amazing wildlife viewing.
4/5

Flash was very good at communicating before the trip. Henry responded to our questions immediately by email and we had several video conference calls as well.
We did a private, camping safari, where we stayed in the public campsites in a tent. We enjoyed the campsites and being in the middle of everything. We did stay at a private campsite the first night at Lake Manyara, Migombani Campsite, it was really great. I would hope Flash would include that in all their camping itineraries.
The animals were amazing! We saw so many things. Our guide and cook took good care of us.
Our only negative was the condition of our particular safari vehicle was not good and we had multiple breakdowns. We missed some game drive time because of this.
Otherwise the safari was great.

Super friendly staff and service minded. Very good safari experience
4/5

Staff was service minded and even picked us up in the airport a few days before the safari started. Safari was very good and we saw all the animals. Safari driver was very good at explaining about the animals, however he had a couple of technical issues with the car, which resulted in delays. Overall recommendable.

Fast response both over phone and mail and very friendly, flexible and helpful staff
4/5

Communications went smoothly, however the car broke down a couple of times on the way from Nairobi to the Miti Eco Camp, but it got fixed everytime and people were friendly and helpful. The sleeping arrangements and food was also fine and the safari was great - James the driver knew everything about the animals and their habits and he stayed within respectable distance to the animals but still made sure we got so many different kinds to see.

all in all very satisfied and if you want to save a little money on the safari budget you can for sure go with this company.

Good safari for a reasonable price: 5 day budget camping Safari for +- €800
4/5

Communication via mail and whats app. This went very well though its maybe a good idea to use an online paying program in stead of just making a deposit.
Safari itself was well organised. We were picked up from a hotel and brought to the hotel of Meru slopes in Arusha. This hotel was basic but clean.
Next morning we left at 6 am and drove to the first camping site in Serengeti. We did not do safari the first day and that was a disapointing because we thought we would see already animals. Camping site in Serengeti was beautiful but toilets en showers were dirty.
Camping site in Ngorongoro was nog nice. A lot of people, very dirty toilets and showers, very cold at night.
The food during the safari was very good.
We saw the big 5 and the great migration so that is of course the most important and a big succes.
Our guide and chef were very friendly.
The safari car was a bit to old and not so comfortable..
Overall we enjoyed it very much. A very reliable company!

One of the amazing crew with all the relevant experience required. Exceptional Safari, scenery, whether, accommodation, food, transport, guide, locals and other essential commodities all were perfect. No matter from which part of the globe you come here, you will enjoy this with their support and experience. Specially Masai Mara & lake Nakuru.

Overall rating
4/5

It was a great experience with VivaSafari tour operator. I stayed at Tremisana lodge and it was a piece of paradise in a dry and brownish bush. The staff is excellent, accommodations are comfortable and the food is very good. The safari itself is incredible - lots of animals and birds. when wild animals appear next to you - it is magic. The company structure the stay well and have interesting activities like for example visiting the animal rehabilitation center. They have several properties for those who do not want to stay at the lodge all the time. They can arrange a night in Kruger under the sky!
