An Unforgettable Journey with Monkey Adventures
Having been on several safaris across Africa, I usually have a pretty good idea of what to expect, but I have to admit—this trip with Monkey Adventures truly raised the bar.
Let’s talk about the bush experience first. We decided to fly directly into the Serengeti airstrip to maximize our time on the ground, which I highly recommend. The vehicle quality was excellent—spacious and well-maintained—but as any seasoned safari-goer knows, the guide makes or breaks the trip. Ours was easily one of the best I’ve encountered in years. With over two decades of experience, his bush knowledge was encyclopedic. It’s rare to find someone who can spot a sleeping lion in a tree from miles away without binoculars, or who knows exactly how to position the vehicle for the perfect photo angle while managing tsetse flies (tactical window usage is a skill!). We saw a leopard on day one—a sighting that can sometimes take days to track down on other trips.
The logistics on the back end were just as impressive. I’ve dealt with many operators, but the team at Monkey Adventures was exceptional at curating a bespoke itinerary. We didn't just want the standard 'Big Five' checklist; we wanted depth. They wove in cultural elements like the Maasai village and coffee plantation visits seamlessly. They also managed our multi-generational group perfectly, helping us celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday with the right mix of adventure and downtime.
Regarding the accommodation: Zuri Camp was fantastic. It strikes that difficult balance of high-end comfort (hot showers, fine dining) while maintaining that authentic, immersive feeling of sleeping in the wild. Waking up to the dawn chorus of the bush never gets old, and the staff at Zuri made us feel genuinely looked after.
From the density of the wildlife—endless wildebeest and active predators—to the seamless execution of the logistics, this was a standout trip. Even if you’ve been on safari before, I can’t recommend Monkey Adventures highly enough. They really know their stuff

A professional and dedicated birding guide
This is our first tour to Africa and very lucky to find Davis to be our guide. Once we get contact by email, he always respond quickly in time to answer all our enquares. During the journey he always ask us about the food and our birding arrangement, discuss how to meet our expectation in the following days.
Thanks Davis, we have a happy journey in Uganda and hope to visit there again.

The most wonderful experience possible
We had the most wonderful Safari possible with Gaspar and Rachel. The organization by Rachel was just perfect. She was very responsive and took care of all our inquiries.
Gaspar (the best guide of east africa) has the best eyes, humor, welfare, driving skills, strategic thinking and planning that one can imagine. Because of him the 10 day safari war unique and tailored to our needs and wants. We visited Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti, South Serengeti, Ngorogoro, Tarangire and Masai tribe. We watched the big five, but most importantly many other animals, which are not less interesting. Many of them had offsprings or were in herds. Gaspar always knew were he could find them or his eyes were able to find them somehow. We spent the evenings together and were laughing a lot. We exchanged our culture and learned many aspects of Tanzanian living, because of Gaspar‘s deep knowledge.
We are beyond greatful for this amazing experience with Gaspar, Rachel and Golden Trips Tanzania. Big recommendation to all people looking for something beyond driving thorough Serengeti!

GASPER WE LOVE YOU! ❤️
Our safari with Golden Trips Tanzania was truly one of a kind and absolutely unforgettable. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded our expectations in every possible way.
A very special thank you goes to Rachel, who handled the entire organization flawlessly. She was always friendly, incredibly helpful, and made sure every single wish we had was fulfilled. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave us complete peace of mind throughout the trip.
Our guide Gasper was honestly like winning the lottery. We laughed a lot together, and his wildlife-spotting skills were simply unbelievable — he has eyes like an eagle, spotting animals from kilometers away. His driving style was excellent, safe, and very smooth. We truly could not have imagined a better guide for our safari.
The 10-day safari was the absolute highlight of our trip so far and turned out to be far better than we ever expected. Everything ran perfectly from beginning to end. The accommodations and food were top-quality throughout the journey.
We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, a python, and so many other incredible animals we never even expected to encounter. Every single day was filled with amazing moments and unforgettable experiences 😀
We highly recommend Golden Trips Tanzania to anyone looking for a perfectly organized safari with an outstanding team. We would choose them again without hesitation!
Thanks Rachel & GASPER! ❤️

Very professional
Arosy Sarfaris was a excellent choice for completing our 5 day safari tour on our first visit to Kenya. Everything was done on time, safely, and in a friendly and relaxed way and according to the schedule originally outlined. We saw fantastic views of the country side and of course all the beautiful and amazing animals. The accomdation which was provided was particularly special, with great views over the various National Parks visited, with great service and atmosphere.
I have no hesitation in recommending Arosy Sarfaris to anyone visiting Kenya
Vincent paid attention to the smallest of details and communicated effectively.
Nandi adventures planned our joint 20th wedding anniversary that we celebrated together with another couple.
They accomodated us at a hotel by the shores of Lake Victoria in Entebbe where we were serenaded by calm waves in the night. They planned a serene stunning picnic at the beach in a qiet nook away from the scrutiny of other people and topped it up with a dinner at another beautiful setting.
Vincent's meticulous planning made our experience very special and memorable
