Super friendly staff and service minded. Very good safari experience
Staff was service minded and even picked us up in the airport a few days before the safari started. Safari was very good and we saw all the animals. Safari driver was very good at explaining about the animals, however he had a couple of technical issues with the car, which resulted in delays. Overall recommendable.

Created great memories and opportunities for amazing wildlife viewing.
Flash was very good at communicating before the trip. Henry responded to our questions immediately by email and we had several video conference calls as well.
We did a private, camping safari, where we stayed in the public campsites in a tent. We enjoyed the campsites and being in the middle of everything. We did stay at a private campsite the first night at Lake Manyara, Migombani Campsite, it was really great. I would hope Flash would include that in all their camping itineraries.
The animals were amazing! We saw so many things. Our guide and cook took good care of us.
Our only negative was the condition of our particular safari vehicle was not good and we had multiple breakdowns. We missed some game drive time because of this.
Otherwise the safari was great.

Great Experience
My wife and I normally traveled by self-drive or train and we have never joined a tour. It was our first time experience of a guided 10 days package and we enjoyed it thoroughly as planning was done by the company and the guide did my normal job as a driver.

Amazing experiences!
My boyfriend and I tok the 5 days safari in Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha, and it was amazing. We arrived day before and there was somebody to pick us up from the hotel the day safari started, then they drive us to the office (a very small room inside some building), since we were earlier than the office worker (it was closed) we had to pay for the trip in the car, what was very weird for me, and i was just praying that it was the wright person i was giving money to, but they had the receipt with my deposit transfer. It went well and when the office lady came we could wait for the bus inside the building with two other clients.
The driver, Sammy, was kind to tell us some informations about places we went to and animals we saw but since sometimes we were sitting on the back of the bus, and there was a lot of noise we couldn't hear everything, such a pity.
Sammy did everything he could to give us the best experience during the whole trip, even when the car broke down he organized an additional activity for the whole group of 7 people, that we did not pay for.
Leaving in tents in Mitimingi Eco Camp was not exactly as i expected but it was enough for two nights of sleep, food was ok and it was almost warm water after some time. We enjoyed the budget tent accommodation. The next two nights were in regular hostel and guest house with good housing standards.
Since people in our group had ordered different tours we had to split on the 4th day and me and my boyfriend stayed alone the last day with our new driver Joseph where we went to Hells gate national park where we rent bikes, were climbing and hiking. It was very relaxing day.
After tour we were transferred to our hotel.

A n excellent holiday
Our holiday with Godson Adventures exceeded our expectations. Right form the initial enquiry we received excellent service, communication was prompt and efficient and they took time to understand our requirements and to create an appropriate itinerary. All of the arrangements were exactly as specified in the itinerary, accommodation was very comforatble, food was very good, and our guide, Ashley, was the best. His knowledge of widlife and local culture and enthusiasm to share this with us made our holiday. We can't thank him enough. W
I thoroughly recommend Godson Adventures for your safari tour in Tanzania - a beautiful country.

Exotic & wild safari
Without focusing much about bumpy & rough roads, Tanzania is fantastic for exotic and wild safari. However, in case we are talking about animal varieties, Kenya has more animal species based on my own experiences. Nevertheless, in term of quantity, Tanzania is the best :)

Nice holidays with Orongai Africa company
Tanzania was a fantasy location for me quite a while. The wild beasts are so impressively astounding to pull in me.
Our visit guide Asseri was exceptionally proficient and knowledgeable about all that we encountered. Likewise, He also takes us deliberately, treat us like a genuine family. We sensed that this trip was amazing and had a great experience in viewing passionate Africa. On the whole, it was an unforgettable trip with Orongai Africa Tours.

Tour of Kenya, August 2018.
We traveled through the parks of Kenya by a small group of 4 people. The company was chosen thanks to Elena, the Russian-speaking manager. After much discussion, the route was approved: Samburu-Solio-Bogoria-Naivasha-Masai Mara. The trip was organized at a good level, but there are a few comments. In Masai Mara we were replaced with a samp and settled in the ENCHOROW WILDLIFE samp Masai Mara. They greeted us cordially, but this was all wrong. We had 2 houses, in one the toilet was in disassembled condition and the water was flowing with a river, and all three days we were trying to fix it, but it was not possible. There were also problems with light. Burning wood and firewood burned next to the other house, it was impossible to breathe. But we made an advance payment, so that we booked everything in advance. The firm promised that we will have a cook, but right on the day of departure, they said that he was sick and only appeared in Masai Mar, but we do not think that it was our cook, since we ate our own table. We travel a lot and we know what our chef is, by the way there were groups with his cook.
I would like to say a big thank you to Elena for the prompt resolution of all the questions that arose, if her trip had not been spoiled for her help.
Thank you to the wonderful guide of the driver of Kagum, his skill and knowledge allowed us to see everything that we wanted.
And the company wants to wish that it clearly fulfilled its promises and carefully chose partners.

Snowcap Delivered as promised
Snowcap was exactly as I expected. A mid-priced private tour for my adult daughter and I to the top of Africa. My reason for using Snowcap was because they allowed us to do the Rongai route in 5 days instead of the 6 day minimum. Snowcap is a tour company but they do not have their own dedicated staff of guides and porters. They outsource from a pool of approved and licensed porters, cooks, guides etc. Our group of 2 climbers required(?) a staggering staff of 10. This later proved to be a good thing because 3 of them needed to be evacuated due to altitude sickness from base camp (Kibo) before the (successful) summit attempt. The guide (Makashi) was very professional and capable. Snowcap ran the tour as promised with a few exceptions. We wanted to stay at Snowcap’s lodge in Rongai in order to get an early start to the climb, however on departure morning, we did not have our permit which needed to be procured from the park gate at the other side of the mountain......5 hours drive by public transport from Rongai. This reduced our ‘already’ tight schedule. This avoidable delay and poor discipline of the team to stay together as a team while in the trail (resulting in a lost porter) were the low points of the tour. The high point (quite literally) being the successful summit. Thanks Snowcap!
