Safari Soles is highly recommended, well connected, trustworthy, thorough and responsiveI highly rec
I highly recommend Safari Soles for the best Tanzanian Safari Tour Operator experience. The entire staff worked diligently to meet all our expectations from Happiness George that organized our trip including booking wonderful lodges (Suricata Boma Lodge) and luxury tent accommodations (Pakulala Safari Camp on the Ngorongoro Crater rim) to Chief, who picked us up at Kilimanjaro airport and kept us entertained for the entire 90 minute ride to Innocent, our Safari Guide that drove long hours every day thru Tarangire, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater to make sure we saw every animal on our bucket list and more, to Baltazar that drove us to the Kilimanjaro foothills and patiently accompanied us on our hike to the Materuni Waterfalls & Coffee tour, on to the Mineral Springs and back to Kilimanjaro airport keeping us on a tight schedule. It was a trip we will never forget.
I’d like to express additional praise for Innocent whose positive attitude and patience never faltered and always checked to make sure we were “all good”, our new favorite phrase. It is obvious that he is well liked within the community, keeping connected to find the best siting and even stopping to help a stranded driver or two. He was instrumental in making this a trip of a lifetime for which we will be forever grateful. Thank you Innocent!

Reliable, prompt, honest
The safari took place for 7 days along the standard route of Kenya. We managed to see all the animals that everyone expects to see here. The route provided in the program was slightly changed, or rather its order, but all the promised parks were visited.
I really liked the quick answers from Lina's manager, for which I thank you very much. We were able to book a safari for the next day.
Responsible, reliable, prompt, not expensive, I recommend it!

Amazing 5 days Safari
Our trip with Golden Trips Tanzania, specifically with our guide Ombeni, was truly spectacular. Our journeys took us through Ngorongoro, Serengeti, and with our final stop in Ndutu (also part of Ngorogoro). A lot of driving, but with so many unique, beautiful animals, and such incredible scenery, it was never on our mind. It also helped having Ombeni as our guide, who was not only a genuinely nice person and a great host but a skilled driver.. the lodges/camps that were booked for us were great, with accommodations and food that never disappointed. This was a special trip for us, and Golden Trips TZ made that possible. Seems like there a lot of options for guides/operators.. Can’t speak for the others but if we go back at some point we’ll go through this company again.

Very caring
All was satisfactory except for the first night hotel that does not have hot shower (it was a cold night so removing one star).
Each travel guide was very caring, and the operation was coordinated professionally. I had great experience.

Amazing trip, fantastic service and an unforgettable experience
We did a four day budget camping safari, and oh boy was it worth the money. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, all in the short time span. It was super fascinating to see all these very different national parks back to back. Even we came in the supposedly off-season (because of the tall grass), our driver and guide Stanley still managed to show us so many animals, that we almost started to get bored towards the end. It was overwhelming. A nice side effect of coming here in the low season was the low number of other tourists, especially in the Serengeti. We had many spots and animals there to ourselves which was super special.
Sleeping in the tents was really chill for us (as experienced campers). Mattresses and sleeping bags were more than appropriate. And the campsites were absolutely beautiful!
A review would not be complete without mentioning our chef extraordinaire Sule. He really spoiled us with his creations (pizza in the middle of the Serengeti!?) and was a fun companion on top of that.
We didn't pay the full amount up front (which we highly recommend in hindsight) and had some complications with our credit cards for the remaining amount. Ernest sent a representative who was super helpful and very supportive, so we managed to pay everything easily. Still, if you can: try to pay up front.
