Reliable, experienced, flexible, competitive - Private safari for 2 tailored to what we wanted
We booked a 5-night, 6-day private safari for two with Joel at Golden Trip directly from the UK, and from the very beginning, the communication and attention to detail were flawless. Joel was very responsive and accommodating, tailoring the itinerary to match our preferences with great flexibility in choosing both the parks and the accommodations. He gave us a full and detailed itinerary in advance for approval and the price was also very competitive—especially compared to group safari options. We paid a deposit to secure the accommodations and the balance on arrival.
Joel greeted us at Arusha airport along with our driver and guide, Deo. After a quick briefing, we set off on our adventure: starting with Tarangire National Park, followed by two unforgettable days in the Serengeti (both North and Central), a day exploring the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, and finishing with a walking safari in Arusha National Park, accompanied by an armed ranger and a final game driver with Deo.
Deo was outstanding —an expert driver who made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey. His deep knowledge of Tanzania, its wildlife, and the national parks improved our experience. He was patient, attentive, and always calm, even in challenging situations. Watching his friendly interactions and cooperation with other guides and rangers added a lovely human touch to the trip.
This safari was truly one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I’ll cherish the moments and memories forever. Highly recommended!
Notes: our trip was a lot of travelling and tiring. I would probably stay 2 nights in Central Serengeti and explore from there, rather than moving every night. I highly recommend the bush tented camps (large tents with bathrooms). Expect a lot of dust (especially during the dry season) and eneven roads (African full body massage... )
Incredible
We had an amazing safari with Golden Trips Tanzania! Our guide, Olaa, was fantastic - super knowledgeable about the animals and plants, and really skilled at spotting wildlife even from far away.
In the Serengeti, we sometimes had to drive long distances to find animals, but Olaa’s patience and experience made all the difference.
Thanks to him, we saw so much and learned a lot along the way.
Highly recommend Golden Trips and Olaa for an unforgettable safari!

Amazing trip
We climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with Golden Trips and enjoyed two wonderful safaris. During the climb, the guides were constantly helpful and funny, and they were especially supportive on the day of the summit push. I'd like to thank the guides Nhoa, Dickson, Bob, Wilson, and Boni. After returning to the hotel, our safari days began the next morning. The place was very beautiful, and we saw many animals. Thank you, Golden Trips!

Definitly recomended!
Great
Excellent company. I have never regretted my choice. They delivered on everything they promised and more. The entire team did a great job on the Kilimanjaro climb. The porters were very friendly and cheerful, and the cooks cooked delicious food. Special thanks to the guides, including the leader Dixon, Noah, Wilson, Bob, and Bonnie. They explained everything clearly and helped with everything. They were also very cheerful. Without them, our team would not have been able to reach the summit. I highly recommend this company for traveling in Tanzania.

Total professionals with deep knowledge on safaris! Much recommended
5 star tour operators! Everything was absolutely amazing from start to finish!
We initiated the planning months before the trip with Leticia who was very communicative, with deep knowledge on safaris and responded each time very quickly.
We made a package for a six day safari plus 3 nights in Zanzibar, with all transportation included - the value for money of this agency was the best!
The safari was a lifetime experience, our guide was Sam (who we adore), he is a very experienced guide, he knows the parks like the palm of his hand and made everything easy for us during the safari - plus we was very eager to find the best spots for us to see all animals and a hive the Big Five goal!
Really really good 🙌🏼

Epic Serengeti Safari with the Incredible Gyasper!
Our Serengeti safari with Gyasper was nothing short of epic! On the very first day, thanks to his razor-sharp eyes, we saw 12 lionesses, a leopard with her playful cub, and even the heart-pounding moment of a lioness pride attacking a water buffalo 🦁🐆🐃. He just has this incredible sixth sense for wildlife—before we even realized, he was pointing out animals hiding in the bush.
Being a proud Masai, Gyasper filled the journey with fascinating stories about Tanzania, its culture, and the secrets of the wild. He’s not just knowledgeable—he’s also super punctual, flexible, and fun to be around, making every game drive both exciting and relaxed at the same time.
If you want a guide who can turn your safari into a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, Gyasper is the one. Truly unforgettable!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Golden Trips Tanzania
After comparing several quotes for a safari experience, we chose Golden Trips Tanzania - and we’re so glad we did. From the outset, Leticia was incredibly patient and efficient, helping us craft the perfect itinerary. Not only did she tailor the trip to our preferences, but she also proposed higher-quality accommodation than some competitors, all at a competitive price.
Our 7-day journey began at Kilimanjaro Airport and took us through Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, Eastern Serengeti, Central Serengeti, and finally to the Northern Serengeti, before flying out from Kogatende Airstrip to Zanzibar.
Leticia handled every detail seamlessly, from airport pickup and safari accommodation to dietary requirements, park entry bookings, a hot air balloon experience in the Northern Serengeti, and our departure flight. Her organisation made the entire trip stress-free.
The accommodation she arranged was excellent: Heart and Soul Lodge in Lake Manyara, Ang’ata Ngorongoro Camp, Kumbukumbu Luxury Tented Camp in the Serengeti, and Ang’ata Migration Camp. All were first-class, though the migration camp was perhaps a bit remote from the Mara River crossings. You can find our detailed reviews of each on TripAdvisor.
The highlight, of course, was the safari itself. Each day we enjoyed full-day game drives in a comfortable, spacious private Land Cruiser with large windows and an open roof, perfect for wildlife viewing. The vehicle was stocked with water, soft drinks, and snacks, which was a thoughtful touch. Each park offered something unique in terms of landscape and wildlife, and we were never disappointed: elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, wildebeest, hyenas, baboons, warthogs, hippo, mongoose, ostriches, storks, cranes, flamingos, eagles, vultures, crocodiles and countless gazelle and antelope species were all spotted regularly.
A special mention must go to our guide and driver, Edward. Engaging, friendly, polite, and incredibly knowledgeable, Edward had an uncanny ability to spot elusive animals and position us perfectly for unforgettable sightings, including the secretary bird, lions, cheetahs, jackals, servals and leopards, and even, in the distance, two elusive black rhinos. Thanks to Edward, we witnessed three major migration crossings over two days, a rare and spectacular experience. Each evening, Edward joined us for dinner, sharing insights from the day and discussing plans for the next. His passion and expertise truly elevated our safari—he was an integral part of what made our trip so memorable.

Amazing experience
We had an amazing experience with Golden Trips! The itinerary and accommodation choices were great, and Joel was always attentive to our suggestions and requirements.
A big shout-out to Hardson — not only a fantastic driver but also such a wonderful travel companion.
We had a couple of mechanical issues along the way, but they never spoiled the overall feeling of the trip. Thank you for helping make our honeymoon so special
