Friendly Professionalism from day 1
Dealing with Simba has been an absolute pleasure. From the first exchange of emails up until the final airport drop off. Everyone was friendly, knowledgable, professional, and flexible.
My group and myself enjoyed every minute of our time in Uganda. We enjoyed all of the places we visited, and appreciated the flexibility afforded to us.
I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!

They will do everything to make your safari more than I could expect. Just wauw.
Everything was more than perfect for our group of six.
The timeschedule, the programm, the food, the lodges (even in the morrogorro parc), the jeep, the conversations with the touroperator the driver, the parcs. It was really fun.
They were flexibel and always available for our questions and they knew how to answer them.
They knew the perfect spots to see different animals in their habbitat. We saw from 1.5 meter distance how a buffalo was eaten up by a lion. And at another spot we saw how two lions were finishing a zebra (also from 1.5 m distance). Their is much to say about the touroperator.
Isayaa is such a gentleman, reliable, smart, has humor and high standards.

Trip of a lifetime
Had such a wonderful experience with our guide Jack. Very pleasant and knowledgeable. He worked very hard to ensure we were comfortable and to see every animal we dreamed of encountering and then some. The vehicle was large and comfortable. Driving in Kenya is hectic at best but I felt as comfortable as I feel I possibly could with Jack driving. Everyone drives crazy aggressive so it’s just something you need to be ready for. I would highly recommend using Axis if you are considering. Lennox also showed great responsiveness which was greatly appreciated. One night we left an iPhone in the truck and Lennox helped us track down Jack who brought it all the way back to our hotel.
I can’t imagine how our trip could have gone any smoother with Axis.
Thanks guys!!!

NTABA is best describe as "lack of communication".
I took a Tanzania/Rwanda trip with NTABA in October. Throughout the booking process it was a struggle to get any communication from them and it continued on the Trip. I constantly had to reach out to them by phone, email, chat, Messenger... and it took days for a response or no response at all. They constantly blamed COVID, but really? Also, we had to take care of a lot of things on our own that they should of taken care of.
Once the trip started, the communication did not improve. We were told at Dinner what the schedule was for the next day, usually.
Throughout the trip I wondered who the trip was for. On numerous occasions, we searched for animals, stopped for photos, marketing opportunities, .... of what the tour operator was interested in; not the client.
Another bad thing from NTABA is the tour operator's lack of any form of professionalism. There were numerous comments made during the trip that were highly unprofessional. Another thing they continually did was try to push their other trips.
However, the Itinerary of the trip was FANTASTIC and I look forward to going again. My next booking will be with Maasai Wanderings LTD. This is who NTABA contracted the trip. This company is professional, great guides, great accommodations and food.
Go to East Africa! But, check your options.

Friendly and professional
The hospitality from the first minutes was at the best we could imagine. The safari was awesome even we don’t saw the Big Five. The service is 100% worth the price

Exceeded our hopes!
We had the most amazing experience. So many up-close encounters with 4 of the big 5. We did see a Rhino as well, but he was further away. The 4 were within 5 metres of the vehicle. Our guide, Emmanuel could not go enough for us, and also took great care on the road. The lodges we stayed were amazing as well. A once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Best choice for safari and hike
We did the hike up Mount Meru and a 7 day safari with Godson and his team. We were completely satisfied and can only recommend Godson to everyone! He was also recommended to us and it was definitely the right decision to do the two tours with him. The communication with Godson before the trip went smoothly. He listened to our wishes and put together an individual tour for us. And also our questions he has always answered very reliably and very quickly. We decided for a private safari in tented lodges and would do it exactly the same way again. Godson arranged the accommodations for us and we could not have done better. The lodges were all very clean, the food was great and the staff was very friendly. The accommodation in the Serengeti was especially nice. The location of the tented lodge was gorgeous and you could see the sunrise from your bed! On the safari godson could tell us a lot of background information about the animals and the vegetation in the individual parks. It was really interesting and we could see a lot of animals thanks to his years of experience. The English of godson is really very good. Therefore, the communication was really nice and we learned a lot about the country and animals. Overall it was a wonderful adventure!
The hike on Mount Meru was unforgettable and highly recommended, not least because of our very competent team from Godson. Our guide Alex led us safely to the summit and was able to answer all our questions. Overall, we felt very well taken care of. Great care was taken to ensure that we could acclimatize well and create the best conditions to reach the summit. Once we reached the summit, we were rewarded with a breathtaking sunrise. The food, freshly prepared by our chef every day 3 times a day, was delicious. On the climb we saw many animals. This also made the day of the descent a special day.
Overall, my boyfriend and I can highly recommend Godson Adventure because we didn't feel like we were one client of many, but the tour was perfectly tailored to our individual desires and we had a memorable trip. Godson is very authentic and you can just tell that he enjoys his work and has a very profound knowledge! On the safari and also on the hike it is mostly so that you eat dinner together with the guide. That's why it's really very good to get along and have a good conversation. And so it was with us in any case. We had really good conversations and could learn so many things in general about life in Africa. It was always very entertaining and informative at the same time. Godson is simply a very likeable person and chooses his team accordingly well!
