5/5

If I will ever have the chance to do again a Safari, I would definitely choose the same company and the same awesome guide: Lenard! There is no doubt that he is an experienced guide and he can drive you to the best spots at the perfect time to see the wild animals: hippos, crocodiles, lions, giraffes, elephants, buffalos, impalas and with a little bit of luck you can see rare animals in middle of the day as hyenas and leopards! If you're not convinced, checked the pictures: in 2 days of game drive, one in Seoul and one in Mikumi, we had to chance to see 18 giraffes in one single place, female and male lions, lots of hippos, buffalos, impalas, crocodiles enjoying the meal and many many other. Because every Safari is different, I can only guarantee that if you choose Lenard, it will be a great experience. He pays attention to lots of details: cold water always available, meals preferences, best accommodation and room based on availability, clean car because during a safari it can get very dirty ... he even bought us candies as a small treat ! And if you people are nice, you don't get only a guide, you get also a friend!

Nice safari
3/5

The safari is really great, only one day of game drive is not that much though. The food was good, the drive between Dar es Salaam and Mikumi pretty long with a guy who hardly spoke any English.

Helpful and always on time
5/5

We were on a two-day trip to Mikumi National Park. The first day we were on Safari. The second day we visited Udzungwa mountain. The safari can not compete with the large national parks in terms of wildlife and lushness, but Mikumi was very intimate - we were allowed to drive the safari car ourselves some of the way and we had to get out of the car when it was safe and get close to the peaceful animals.
We stayed at Simanga Lodge. Nothing fancy and sparse with space, but there was air conditioning and we stayed relatively little in the room, so that was fine enough. We ate at Camp Bastian, which is not the same place to stay overnight - the food was really good compared to what we have otherwise experienced in Tanzania.
All in all, a nice trip and Lenard was helpful with small issues that arose along the way. So if you are in Dar Es Salaam, and do not have the time / profit / desire for the big popular Safari places in Arusha, then Mikumi National Park can definitely do something too.

Amazing experience with Goinggreensafari
5/5

We did a 3 days, 2 nights safari in Mikumi National Park and it was a wonderful experience. We started to see many animals on the road to the hotel : impalas, girafes, monkeys, elephants...
We stayed at Simanga Lodge wich was very clean with air conditioning but we took all pour meals in Camp Bastian. The food is very good and the place is beautiful and quiet.
The full day game drive was absolutely great, we had the chance to see the big 4. The period was great because there are lots of baby animals in the park.
Our guide Jaferson was super nice, interesting and fun. We were in the Lion King movie all day.
Thank you so much Lenard for the organisation and the beautiful time we had with you. We recommend goinggreensafari for your safari in Tanzania the price is really good and what you get is amazing. We will certainly try to come again.

Awesome Safari Tour which exceeded our expectations!
5/5

We, two female mid 20 friends from Germany/Austria booked the 4 day Mikumi and Udzungwa NP safari starting from Dar es Salaam.
Lenard was the most friendliest and welcoming guide we could wished for. Always on time and more than happy to assist. We had wonderful conversations, rewarding for both cultural backgrounds and he always made sure that we got exactly what we wanted. Inside the NPs we had different drivers / guides (as they know the area and spots best) which were all really lovely and knowledgeable - so we saw a lot of animals and were always the “luckiest car” as our driver simply knew how to drive *yaay*. Also important to say that this is a private tour and you have your own car with no other tourists! :)
So for the 4 day safari, the first and last day were mainly for driving. Make sure you visit the Maasai culture in the evening of the first day - unforgettable, highly interesting and also authentic encounter with a totally different culture. The 2nd day is for Mikumi NP, one day in the NP for spotting animals is IMO totally fine and we wouldn’t wanted another day as one ist definitely enough to see everything!
The 3rd day in Udzungwa NP was awesome! Nice walk up to the waterfall and incredible views on top of it with lunch next to the cliff! Make sure you go swimming in the waterfall pools!
All in all I can highly recommend this 4 day tour! We were really thankful that everything worked out so smoothly and that we were so welcomed by all the locals and saw everything that we wanted inside the NPs!
Thanks Lenard!! :)

punctual and reliable
5/5

I was on 4-Day Mikumi NP, Udzungwa Mountain Trekking and Maasai. That was great experience. I really liked punctuality and driving skill of the guide (Lenard). Also the company provided experienced safari guides and we saw all animals including lions. The only animal that I haven't seen was leopard. Accommodation was also convenient.

Minuses that I noticed:
1. Food in the hotel. Menu was poor and the same during all days (rice, chicken, beef, eggs, pancakes). At the same time you will not stay hungry.
2. Guide in Udzungwa was not really great, he was a lot on the phone and with other guides that we met.

Overall I really liked the safari.

5/5

We had a 2days 1 night safari in Mikumi National Park. Leonard picked us up in time at our hogel in the morning. He was very nice and drived safely. The tour was awesome, we saw a lot of animals( giraffes, elephants, zebraa, hippos, lions etc. even a leopard). The tour guide and the driver was very helpful, we had a lot of fun together. The food and the hotel was really good too. We are very satisfied. I highly recommend the company. Best price guaranteed! :)0

Amazing and much knowledge about the wildlife!
5/5

We were on a three-day safari in Selous National Park with our guide and driver Lenard.
The tour was an unforgettable experience from start to finish and exceeded our expectations 100%.
Thanks to Lenard's knowledge we saw the National Park at its best and even saw lions mating.

We can highly recommend the tour with Lenard to everyone!

Excellent Safari
5/5


I went on a 3 days Safari in Mikumi Parc and it was marvelous !
The trip has been meticulously handled by Vivian who is a very friendly and accomodating person.
All the guides and drivers were cheerful, helpful and made sure that I adventured a lot ! And my god, I was blown away by the landscapes of this area, animals (especialy lions) and food !
I highly recommend this agency !
