Great personal advice and support
Our first contact was back home, in 30 minutes we learned about the team and the travel opportunities. Options were communicated transparently. Super helpful. We took time to write down our thoughts and were offered a tailored travel plan accordingly. Within budget and aligned with our needs. True personalization.
Once we arrived at our destination, we got a personal debrief on what to expect and some tips & tricks for the trip itself. Again, personal, relevant and with great detail.
It lead to a perfect holiday. We enjoyed safaris, cultural local trips (cooking, coffee, maasai) and relaxing time in Zanzibar. Just before our departure we again were reached out to with all the latest and greatest info (eg PCR testing needs), reassuring us all the way.
So yes, Green Hippo comes highly recommended. We enjoyed a tailored, beautiful Tanzania trip. Thanks!

A very rewarding once in a life-time opportunity
Over all the trip was fantastic! The guides and ranger were knowledgeable, supportive and were easily able to set a perfect pace according to our group. The cabins were great and clean and we enjoyed having the entire place to ourselves! The food was delicious and provided sufficient energy for our climb! The other staff in the team were very kind and professional. Things that I could suggest for improvement for green hippo travels is the lunch pack for the first day, we would love to see your environment consciousness within our lunches, possibly using less single use plastic. Thank you so much for our amazing trip!

Was marvellous, with exclusive experiences and a warm hearted feeling into tanzania.
Going with GreenHippoTravels allowed me to learn more about the culture, animals and plants of tanzania thanks to the way the company presents its trips which allows us to have unique experiences. It makes the tours stay interesting everywhere. Being conscious of the environment and overall earth is very easy with GreenHippoTravels since that is there priority, this makes going traveling even more enjoyable!!

One in a life time Safari
With only 5 days noticed, Astrid from GreenHippo Safaries managed to organize the most amazing safari for us. The accommodation organized was exactly what we liked. All paper-work for the parks done so we could enter the parks smoothly. And most important what a privilege to be in the Serengeti almost by yourself!

Excellent tour, amazing experience unforgettable
It was an amazing experience perfectly organized by GreenHippo travels.
I travelled with a friend of mine and booked the trip in September to start on 27 th of January.
The transfers to and back the airport are included in the package.
The lodges and tented camps are nice having in mind we have booked a mid-range safari. The camps in Tarangire and the Serengeti, they are nothing more to wish for in the middle of nowhere. Warm to hot water, everywhere, enough to wash your hair and electricity in the tents to charge your devices. Our guide David was amazing, so much knowledge about every single species we have seen during our safari. Thanks to GreenHippo travels and our guide David to make our safari unforgettable.

Experience of a lifetime
We toured through Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Green Hippo Travels. Our guide, Silva, was very knowledgeable and helpful in naming the various animals we saw in the wild, and providing more information about their habits. The tented camps were top notch, and our guide paced the tour to our preferences.
We had been given excellent guidance from Astrid in planning our tour ahead of time, to ensure the duration fit our desires and that the accommodations were to our liking.
We were quite pleased with the experience and recommend Green Hippo to anyone who wants a true safari experience.

Great trip!
I can't thank GreenHippo travels enough for helping to plan my trip! They provided useful advice about where to stay and the best time to visit. We settled on the Northern part of Tanzania and Zanzibar and they listened to all my feedback to create the perfect itinerary that combined safari and beach. I would definitely book with GreenHippo travels again and I especially love their philosophy of responsible travel and working with companies that pay and treat their employees fairly. I think it showed in all the people we met on our trip.

Great costumer service from the beginning untill the end of your safari.
I have noticed that Karin and Astrid have a lot of experience in Tanzania. They know exactly where you are going, from the lodges, the roads and the tour guides. They listen very well what you like to do and create a tailor made program for you and your friends.
they also give very good information about the things you can expect. This was the second time we have booked with Greenhippo and for sure the next time we will book again with them!

Unforgettable and professional
My husband and I could not be more satisfied with our experience with Green Hippo Travels. The entire process from the first email to arriving in Tanzania went fluently. We spend 7 full days on safari with guide Silva who was very friendly, informative and had amazing eyes on the animals. The lodges were small, with great views, lovely staff and amazing food if you consider you are in the bush without electricity and running water. We did a coffee tour around Arusha, spend 2 nights with the Maasai and ended our trip on Zanzibar. We can highly recommend Green Hippo to everybody.
