Best experience ever
We are very grateful to have our first experience in Africa with the Safari GOAT company. They are a reliable, responsible company and very attentive to their clients. We spent two weeks with our guide Frank. He is a guide with a lot of experience, knows Spanish, extensive knowledge of animals, culture and history. Thanks to him we saw many animals, he was very respectful, kind and we felt safe. If a problem arose, he solved it. Someone who can solve problems is very important to be able to continue with the day's activities. Eddie and the Safari GOAT team in their offices were always attentive to our calls, changes or requests in our program. The places or stays that they offer as an option were all beautiful, comfortable places with good service. So we recommend this company.

Great professional, Close your eyes and let the magic happen
From the initial WhatsApp message with Faraja to the conclusion of our remarkable safari tour with our guide Adrien, everything proceeded seamlessly. This company is highly dependable, offering fair prices and a friendly team dedicated to ensuring your experience is unforgettable from start to finish. I highly recommend Full Package Adventure for exploring the stunning landscapes of Tanzania.

A well organized, serious operator
Communications:
Initial response via SB was quick. Subsequent exchanges also quick.
Service:
Agreed times respected
Value for money:
These things cost, regardless of operator, what is for me a lot of money. That said when I considered the time and cost and aggravation of organizing and conducting such a tour independently, it seemed that I was paying a fairly reasonable premium for having everything taken care of for me. Having a driver who is familiar with the territory and the driving culture was much more efficient, and probably safer than me driving myself.
Tour:
My two days in Nyungwe were fantastic, I got to hike several trails and see the highlights. However, I must point out the value brought by my NH guide, Emanuel: He really took care of everything: Driving, finding good places to eat, knowing where to take good photos even spotting wildlife along the way. He was consistent and reliable throughout. Beyond that, he is an educated and thoughtful individual who was able to answer my many questions, without fail. He really made the trip for me.

Great communication and organizing! Was able to get support with all the activities available!
Arthur was an asset to our trip. For four young women wanting to do many things, his patience and willingness helped to make each of our trips individually and collectively amazing! From organizing personal excursions to ensuring safety at all times and even history and information. Arthur was a one of a kind guide and would recommend him to other travelers- solo or group!

Personal, attentive, sensitive to culture & nature, knowledgeable, unflappable, value. The best!
Dear Rachael,
We want to extend a huge THANK YOU to you and the whole team for such a memorable holiday – truly a holiday of a lifetime. Your attention to detail before and during our holiday was exceptional, more than anyone could hope for.
Along the way, so many people went out of the way to make it so special.
Whilst we can't name them all, there are a few people that deserve special mention:
o “Willie” our Jeep driver – whose knowledge made the difference, explaining the culture in such an engaging way - connecting with other guides and finding many intimate moments with the incredible wildlife;
o “Jonathon” at Kibo Safari Camp – who went out of his way to make us feel at home, always greeting us with a smile, even joining us to watch the Euro 2024 semi final. And “Steve” at the restaurant, who looked after us so well;
o “Lucian” at the Salt Licks Game Lodge who took us on a night safari, sharing his knowledge with warmth and enthusiasm;
o “Hamisi” and the head chef the Diani Sea Resort who organised an incredible celebratory seafood feast for Ben’s 16th Birthday, serenaded with traditional dancers by the beach, a night not to be forgotten;
o “Benson” our taxi driver to the Kisite Mpunguti Marine Park where we saw green turtles and ate the most incredible meal on Wasini Island.
And last but not least yourself Rachael, from adapting our schedule to meet every request, smoothing over my visa without drama before we set off, organising Ben's spectacular birthday meal, and having the initiative to recommend a final visit to Giraffe sanctuary and a meal at Carnivores when we had a few spares hours before our return flight. Exceptional attention to detail.
The hotels and food was first class throughout, the Jeep was modern and clean and the routes taken were scenic and informative. But the overriding memory for us is the WONDERFUL PEOPLE that make Kenya such a special place, and yours a special team.
I have sent you a few photos via Whatsapp which you are welcome to use as necessary – again, we could flood you with so many memories, but hopefully the few we do send will give you an impression of the happiness you provided.
Finally I have have already shared your details (and the comprehensive quote you provided us) to a few friends and family - who have expressed what incredible value the tour was. There is NOTHING to fault! Brilliant!!
Thank you SO much – I hope we get to see you again soon.
Your friends
Paul, Maryann, Tom and Ben

Unforgettable journey
This trip was a delight due to the diversity of animals, the professionalism of the staff supervising the group and the team atmosphere. We traveled through different parks with a growing attraction to the fauna and flora. Tony is very attentive to everyone to enjoy the best angle of view. For a first for me I was immersed in the excursion and animal life.

Amazing tour guide, Jamal and Tubale gave us the trip of a lifetime!
The safari was an absolutely unforgettable experience. We got so lucky and saw the big five animals and many more!! It was such a unique experience being able to do a nature walk in Lake Mburo National Park and walk amongst the giraffes and many more animals! A personal highlight was gorilla trekking in Bwindi! I loved the boat safari tours as well, they were such a different way of viewing the animals- and the staff were so knowledgeable and helpful. My sister and I loved the White Nile Rafting on the Nile river - so lucky to have done this!
Jamal (our guide) who planned the safari went above and beyond to make this experience personalised for us. Jamal was super friendly and lovely throughout the trip and honestly made the experience so amazing. The lodges we stayed in were amazing, with so many differing environments and fantastic views. Thank you Jamal; this was truly the trip of a lifetime that my family and I will never forget!!!

Lifetime memories
We had an amazing time and made some lifetime memories with lion king adventures. Our guides Gama And Richard were amazing and very patient. We saw the big 5s and some very close. The hotels/ lodges were pretty good and the people were warm and friendly
