3 Day Safari in Tarangire National Park & Ngorongoro Crater
My two cousins and I had the pleasure of enjoying a 3-day/2-night safari with Godson in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. Godson was highly recommended to me by a friend of a friend who had done a homestay with Godson's family several years ago as part of a study abroad program. From the moment I reached out to Godson to inquire about availability and itineraries, he was nothing but helpful, professional, and accommodating. He responded to my emails very promptly and was willing to work within our budget to design a safari package suitable for our group. After a night in Arusha, we headed out to Tarangire National Park and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon game drive. We opted to sleep inside the park at the public campsite for the first night. Godson provided the tents, sleeping mats, sleeping bags, and pillows for camping. His friend Chili was our personal chef and made us a delicious Christmas Eve dinner of roasted chicken! While on safari, Godson knew the park like the back of his hand and always knew exactly where to find the animals. He was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna inside the park, and we enjoyed looking at his animal and plant guides. His safari vehicle is very comfortable and spacious, including a great pop-off roof and a cooler to keep our drinks cold. I cannot recommend Godson and Chili enough and hope that you will consider him on your next trip! Safari Njema!

Comfortable competent congenial
We were beyond happy with Godson as our guide, the safari itself and the service around it. Godson knows how to make his clients to feel comfortable, he is a very competent guide with all the experiece and animal knowlegde he has. He is easy to be around with and a very good driver. We enjoyed our trip to several national parks and will never forget the beautiful landscapes and nature scenes. We saw everything we were excited for and were surprised by way more than we expected. About the food during the trip: it flattered our tummies! :)
We also enjoyed that we could plan the trip indivitually with him and he cared a lot about what we wanted.
We can highly recommand Godson Adventures to anyone who wants to have a one in a lifetime experience in Tanzania.

Absolutely perfect!
We used Godson for safari and hiking Kilimanjaro. Godson was absolutely incredible. Him and his team looked after us so well. For me in particular as I have dietary requirements (coeliac) I was a little nervous but the food was not only safe but really delicious. The whole experience with Godson was very professional and extremely friendly. I would highly recommend Godson for Safari's and hiking, he certainly went above and beyond my expectations.

Godson is friendly, personable, professional and knowledgeable. We have recommended him plenty!
We unfortunately booked through an external agent, which was unnecessary, as Godson easily could’ve sorted it all for us, but I suppose we’d not have met him otherwise!
His English is very good, and he has excellent knowledge of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro areas, as well as the local vegetation, local tribes & customs, and of course the wildlife.
We had a good laugh with him, all while feeling safe and prioritized. He demonstrates the utmost professionalism and truly made our safari adventure second to none!

Knowledgeable, kind, and fun to travel with!
Godson took me and my group of 4 up Mt. Kilimanjaro. The trip and scenery were amazing, and the physical trek was worth the time and effort. Godson and his crew were always extremely helpful and organized on the trip; cooking meals for us every morning/evening, taking blood oxygen levels to see how well we were acclimating, and always engaging in our conversations at night with funny stories. I remember that my bag got lost during my flight over, and Godson went out of his way to contact the airline, drive me to the airport, and talk to customer service just to get my bag so I could start the climb the next day. he really is an excellent guide and a kind, personable individual. If I ever come back to Tanzania to do another mountain or safari tour, he will be my first call again!

Kili
Godson is an incredible person and guide. He allowed us to test ourselves while simultaneously keeping us safe and well fed. He hired a great team of assistants, and we never once wondered if we had been overcharged or swindled. I can safely say that I would confidently recommend Godson to anyone climbing kili or traveling to Serengeti. His knowledge, honesty, and good nature make any trip enjoyable, even when you’re exhausted coming down from altitude at base camp. 10/10, a great man, great guide, and a trip that is a great value.

African Dream
My trip to Africa far exceeded my expectation! Godson was our guide while climbing Mt Kilimanjaro his professional approach was outstanding. Godson never got tired of answering questions or showing points of interest, a flower or a tiny Sunbird native to the area, Godson was enthusiastic to share his vast knowledge. We were served good wholesome nutritional meals while trekking the mountain from a happy group of guides. Our bags were carried by the guides who would pull down the camp in the morning and have it setup at the next destination by the time our group would arrive in the afternoon. Communication was not a problem all the guides had a good knowledge of English and were happy to enter into conversation. My trip to Africa was a life long dream, with Godson as my guide my dream came true!
I would highly recommend Godson Adventures, when I return to Africa to go on safari I will be going with Godson Adventures.

Knowledgeable and super accommodating! Made my safari perfect- catered to every request!
Godson is very responsive to Facebook messages and email. Even given the time difference, I always had thorough replies to all my inquiries. There was a lot of back and forth so that Godson knew exactly what I was looking for and he perfectly catered my trip to what I wanted. I gave him a list of the animals I hoped to see, the level of accommodation I desired, and he put together a plan. He handled all the bookings, so all I had to worry about was getting there! He even picked me up from my hotel after I finished hiking Kilimanjaro, then finished my trip by dropping me off at the airport.
On safari, Godson's truck is as comfortable as they get (there's a LOT of dust and bumpy roads on safari!) and he was constantly on his radio, working with other guides so we didn't miss any spottings! He was even able to find some baby leopards playing in a tree! Such a special site!
I'd highly recommend booking with Godson for personalized, professional service and a wonderful safari experience!
