Friendly, competent and super responsive
5/5

I did a 10-day safari trip with my brothers to four safari parks in the southern part of Tanzania, mainly to avoid the crowds in the Serengeti. Gogiraffe put together a great tour, spanning Mikumi, Ruaha, Udzungwa and Nyerere National Parks. Planning was through WhatsApp, with the manager Luice Bayanga, who was super responsive and very flexibly accommodated all our requests. All arrangements he made were perfect, from the selection of the accommodation (mid-range to upper-range safari camps...), to all the travel arrangements (airport and hotel pick-ups, guides etc). Issa, our driver was very pleasant to travel with, and a very safe pair of hands on the roads (which can be quite rough, and with lots of heavy traffic to negotiate...). He also was very knowledgeable, telling us much about the country as we travelled, and he was also a great bird and animal spotter. We capped the safari off with a day in Zanzibar, with smoot transfers between Dar Es Salaam and Zanzibar in a great hotel, and an excellent local guide. We were very satisfied, and will come back with our spouses. We definitely will use Gogiraffe again. Great value for money too - so I'd highly recommend them.

Excellent planning and execution of our tailor made safari and so friendly and helpful
5/5

Luice helped my husband and I to plan a midrange tailor made safari to Southern Tanzania and couldnt be bettered. We went to 3 parks Mikomi, Ruaha and Nyerere. Samwell our driver guide was excellent and enabled us to see a wide range of wildlife including Leopards, Painted Dogs, Hyenas and large prides of lions. Ruaha is very out of the way but was magnificent a true wilderness. Mikomi is smaller and busier but had so much to see. Nyerere, when you get away from the road that has heavy lorries up and down to the new dam they are building, is beautiful the huge number of hippos and crocodiles on the lake and river was a sight to see. Elephants were everywhere of course but sadly no Cheetahs.
I would recommend Luice to anyone who wants a southern Tanzania safari without breaking the bank.The lodges were simple but adequate and Ruaha Hilltop lodge was fantastic. We had one night midjourney at a farm near Morogoro which was sheer luxury I recommend 2 nights there if you like birds. Everything ran to time except for one small hiccup which was put right in a timely manner.

Made the organising and thr holiday itself, extremely magical!!
5/5

We could not recommend Go Giraffe highly enough. The team exceeded our expectations and beyond.

We booked a 6 day (5 night) tour including Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire Park and finally, Kikuletwa Springs.

We booked with Go Giraffe because it offered the most reasonably priced tour for what we wanted and we were not disappointed.

Luice Bayanga was our main point of contact initially. He is kind, extremely responsive, approachable, tailors the tour to suit your needs, quick to answer and questions - particularly with regard to accommodation and will organise relevant transfers - wither plane and/or taxi.

We had a small blip before our Safari tour started in that our Kenyan Airways flight was delayed which meant we missed our connecting flight to Arusha Airport where our Safari began. Luice was contactable overnight and went above and beyond to help ensure we reached there on time and safely by car instead.

He contacted us throughout the tour to check in with us, I'm only sorry we weren't able to meet him in person having spent so much time communicating with him via email/phone.

Silas was our tour guide. I'm not sure where to begin with Silas - professional, punctual, approachable, friendly, skillful, patient, honest, kind, experienced beyond words, knowledgeable only touches the surface. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide to spend 6 days with. Silas knows the roads inside and out, was able to keep us safe through some difficult journeys in the rain, always energetic, driving through tough roads whilst also introducing us to various animals including birds along the way. He was able to anticipate the animal's movement and position the car in the best way for us to get amazing views. We learnt so much Tanzanian history, culture as well as being educated about each animal we saw.

The entire experience was absolutely priceless and Silas ensured we saw as many animals we could. We couldn't thank him enough for being the most amazing guide. Tourists would be lucky to have him as their guide and we will be recommending him to everyone!

Thank you Go Giraffe Ltd for the most spectacular, unforgettable holiday. It was truly magical - from start to finish!

The TOP tour operator for Tanzania.
5/5

Our journey to Zanzibar´s beaches and Serenguetti National Park was amazing and incredible. GOgiraffe knows perfectly well what a tourist is looking for and it make a fantastic organisation. We have felt unique seeing how they made everyday a totally different experience, with a deep knowledge of the hotels, services, adventures, etc. They have discovered us a totally different kind of journey. Fully recommended and wishing for the next opportunity to work with the in a near future.
