Knowledgeable and fun!
5/5

Wonderful company! I did a 5 day safari with them and it was an all around great experience. Loreta and company arranged everything from airport pick up to airport drop off. My safari guide Freddie is a gem. Not only did he know so much from 20 years experience, he has a great personality and caters to what you want to do. My only advice is do not cheap out on accommodations as it is well worth the money and take a good camera for the safari.

Our operator was very accommodating to what we wanted to experience.
5/5

We had a 10 day safari experience…It was amazing! Freddy was our guide. We were really fortunate that elephants and other animals were out in force- we saw tons of animals, especially elephants up close. Freddy was really good at spotting animals at a long distance and was patient as we wanted to stay and watch for a long time.

We chose the option to stay in lodges instead of camping. We were very comfortable and well fed everywhere we went. Our favorite was the Tortilus property in Tarangire- which was Glamping. We heard lions at night- it was pretty cool.

One thing- some of the lodges don’t have power all night long. If you use a CPAP and want to depend on it, make sure you mention that when making your plans so they book you in accommodations with power all night.

I highly recommend Greg Adventures for a lifetime experience.
5/5

I was a female solo traveler camping for 9 days in National Parks that spent the first 2 safari days alone with the guide/driver and the chef and can say that I felt extremely secure. Deo (guide/driver) and Pol (chef) were amazing, they were respectful, polite, professional and fun, I couldn´t have asked for a better company and experience. Deo knew how to find all the animals, we saw the big 5 more than once! He realized all of our “wishes”. Pol made magic with his food, I felt quite spoiled there!

On the road I could see many other safari companies, for that I can say that I made the right choice by travelling with Greg Adventures. While the other companies´ cars were going to the same place, Deo took us to see much more. His safari knowledge was crucial for this lifetime experience!

Camping in the middle of the national park with no fences was incredible, you could really feel the experience. Staring at that magical sky with no lights around and sleeping listening to the animals´ sound was for sure a lifetime experience.

Thank you Greg Adventures for giving me more than I could ever imagined! What a trip! An unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable experience
5/5

My husband and I booked a 3 days safari trip- serengeti and Ngorongoro. The safari was amazing. Our tour guide Juma made sure we enjoyed our trip and was fun to have around. Our chef Paul always surprised us with the dish he would prepare.
I would highly recommend Gregs adventures for your safari trip.

6 Day 5 nights Private Safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngoro and Lake Eyasi
4/5

Selected a private budget tour with Greg Adventures for me and my wife. We are seasoned safaris travelers and do at least 2 safari's a year in Southern Africa. Had a wonderful experience in the parks and saw amazing sightings, the Serengeti is an amazing place with the vast open plains which allows for great sightings especially for the cats. Anwar our guide was knowledgeable and made the experience a great one with some perfect alone sightings. Raymond was a great cook and companion and his cooking skills in the bush with limited resources is amazing. Put on a few kilos and there is so much variety of food at every meal.

The vehicle was a little on the old side with limited air conditioning. The tents and stretcher were comfortable and despite the heavy downpours at time, kept us warm and dry.

There is a tremendous amount of driving as the distances between the parks are far and the roads as one would expect in the wild are very bumpy and dusty. The ablutions in the parks were of a good standard and Tanzania Parks must be completed. I could imagine it gets very busy in the high season. The picnic sight toilets where the best on the trip. Our visit to Lake Eyasi was a little disappointing as the camp sight was not great. The experience with the bushmen was interesting. In retrospect could have missed this and spent another day in the Serengeti or visited Lake Manyara.

Great safari
5/5

My boyfriend and I did a 6 day 5 night safari with Greg adventures January 2020. We had an amazing time getting to see all the big 5 as well as other hard to see animals such as the caracal. Our guide, Anwar, was fantastic and very knowledgeable making it even more enjoyable. Raymond, our cook, also made us huge delicious meals to keep everyone going. Greg adventures also made it easy to slightly change our itinerary so that we had one night in a tented lodge which was very beautiful as well as going to Lake enyasi and going on an early morning bush hunt with the Hatsebe tribe which was one of our personal favorites. All in all would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to go on a affordable safari.

Great driver
5/5

Our driver Deo was absolutely fantastic, and the lodges Greg booked us into were awesome.
There was a minor issue with the other people in our group changing their booking at the last minute which resulted in some hassles along the way, but Greg was very fair to us and gave us a small refund to account for it. I don't think it is usual for his tours to have problems - I have spoken to other people who have been on Greg's safaris and they all had a really good time.

Fun and beautiful
5/5

We went on a budget camping safari with a group of friends and had a wonderful time. We were received very well upon arrival and from there on everything just got better. Everything was well arranged, all trip long we haven’t had to worry about anything. We had a wonderful cook that surprised us with every meal. We stayed at nice camping sites, some were better maintained than others but we didn’t expect to much from them anyway since we opt for the budget safari. We had a good and fun driver who knew the right spots to see wildlife. We all had a great time and won’t forget this experience.

Once in a lifetime experience!
5/5

We (3 young women 27-30) booked a 4 day/3 nights campingsafari withGreg and totally loved it! The trip included 2 nights in Villa Poa and 3 nights camping (simple tent as well as mattresses and sleeping bags are provided). Meals during our whole stay were also included. By the way THANKS to our chef Tuma!

Airport shuttle was totally trouble free (Arusha as well as Kilimanjaro airport). By the way the service in advance (mail traffic, flow of information, payment etc.) was great!

Safari itself included nationalparks Tarangire, Serengeti andNgorngoro. Our great guide Allan made everything possible, so we did'nt only get to see the big 5 but nearly every animal (apart from some birds), often from really close!

You spend the nights in Serengeti and Ngorongoro on a wild camping set in the middle of the parks so you might meet some zebras and elephants or get awake by the sund of a lion during the night. Such a great and special experience!

We can totally recommend a stay at Villa Poa! Thanks for all, guys :)
