Amazing experience. Great tour guide and Itinerary. Highly recommend
My partner and I joined our guide, Phennie, for the 5 day Gorilla/Chimpanzee tour.
We are seasoned travellers, and this experience sits right up there with some of the best we've had. Phennie's local knowledge, advanced animal spotting, and relaxed/flexible attitude made this trip feel complete. The Gorilla trekking was something we will never forget, a truly magical time spent with gentle giants and their infants. The trip also included safaris through Queen Victoria National Park/Ishasha, where we were lucky enough to see the famous tree lions and leopards, as well as an abundance of elephants, giraffes, zebras, birds, monkeys, etc.
A boat ride down the river with vast plentiful wildlife occupying the shoreline was a great way to see the animals in a different context. The chimpanzee trek to finish off the 5 days was spectacular and is worthy of a trip in itself.
The tour provided a range of options for accommodation. We chose the luxury option (the third highest tier out of four) and each place we stayed at was tasteful, and offered seriously spectacular views of the surrounding terrain.
Highly recommended!

The wonderful trip. Everyone should go to there once a life.
I am so glad that I joined this trip. Everything is so wonderful. The guide were pretty nice and friendly to deal our every requirement. And they are so experienced to find those animal, get the best place to get photo for us. The chefs made many kinds of dish by limited food ingredients. I just recommended to everyone while I got back.

Unique
Definitely Namibia was different from everything that I’ve seen in my life. Sossusvlei it’s where I took the best pictures, and it was effortlessly. I just grabbed my phone, pointed to a landscape and then I had an awesome pic that impressed everybody back home!
I went in January during summer but the weather was not a issue. Just make sure to have a pool in your accommodation place and it’ll be perfect.

This is the best safari ever!!
This was a perfect safari in one of the most beautiful places on earth, Serengeti and Ngonrongo. Our guide, Moses, was the most knowledgeable, gentle, wonderful safari guide one can wish for. We saw all big five multiple times, at very close distance and enjoy the safari immensely. Thanks a million, Moses, for making possible such an unforgettable experience!!

Great experience with kids visiting Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
Masai Mara is glorious. The Eco Camp chosen by Pride of Kenya Safari is really nice as was the visit to Masai Village which is authentic in its own way. The Masai are very aware of the interest in their culture and so they have arranged a very nice visit. I was happy that our fees to visit the village will contribute in whatever way.
Lake Nakuru is not what is used to be in terms of the flamingos, which are now mostly gone. I don't think I would visit again. But Masai Mara is a truly wonderful place

Been with Masihambe Afrika before and would go again!
I like that Masihambe Africa provides a no frills authentic trip with a great, very experienced, knowledgeable bushman guide in Anthony. Lots of variety in accommodation from tents to simple lodge accommodation and great experiences of the culture, food, geography and wildlife. Give them a try... you’ll love it.

Magnificent Tanzania - excellent guide!
First I want to say something that is mentioned here in every review - safari is truly amazing experience and can definitely be one of the greatest trips of a lifetime - so before taking the trip I spent many hours looking for a tour company and was in touch with many tour operators to make sure that everything would go well.
Now back to Godson Adventures. Godson is the owner of the company and he is also the guide. When I started talking to Godson he was available almost 24/7 and answered all my questions almost immediately so the communication and planning was very smooth.
All other companies were offering pretty much the same set of lodging options for my budget so whenever I reached to a new company they were offering properties that I already was aware of. I made a short list of properties and chose the best for every location so when I approached Godson I asked him to pick those properties. Godson told that he could do it but then he also suggested few options, which I was not aware of. One of them, near Serengeti entrance, was brand new so looks like others did not know about it at all so we ended up in a resort style hotel with a nice pool vs B&B that was offered by others and the one I picked initially . Another property - Serengeti camp - also looked better than those offered by other companies, in fact it was also in other category i.e. more expensive.
Godson knows the parks very well and we saw many animals including the big five. He also has his own secret places so few times we were watching animals very close to us and there was no one else around. He also knew when we needed to be patient so on few occasions we saw some unique things like a lioness and several cubs crossed the road right in front of us. All other cars were gone by then but Godson suggested that we should stay as lioness was acting weird and he though she was looking for a cub (and he was right!).
Godson was telling some interesting and fun facts about animals and nature all the time but he was not talking non-stop. He was also happy to participate in every conversion we started so it was very friendly atmosphere during the whole trip.
Thanks again Godson for the truly amazing trip!
