Our Story: Golden Trips Tanzania

Golden Trips Tanzania was founded in 2020 by Samson Simon, a Tanzanian tourism professional whose lifelong passion for nature, adventure, and cultural heritage shaped the vision of the company. Born and raised in the shadow of Mount Meru, Samson developed a profound appreciation for Tanzania’s landscapes, wildlife, and the unique stories of its people from an early age.

After years of hands-on experience in the travel industry, Samson recognized a gap in the market: many travelers were missing out on authentic, locally-led safari experiences. Middlemen often diluted the quality, leaving tourists disconnected from the very heart of Tanzanian adventure. Determined to change this, Samson set out to create a company that connected travelers directly with experts on the ground, ensuring an authentic and immersive experience at every step.

With this vision, Golden Trips Tanzania was born — a company dedicated to tailor-made safaris, trekking adventures, and cultural journeys across Tanzania. From summiting the iconic Mount Kilimanjaro to witnessing the awe-inspiring Great Migration in the Serengeti, exploring the dramatic Ngorongoro Crater, or unwinding on the pristine white-sand beaches of Zanzibar, every journey is crafted to be ethical, immersive, and unforgettable.

Today, Golden Trips Tanzania boasts a skilled team of safari guides, mountain specialists, and cultural ambassadors, all sharing Samson’s mission: to showcase the real Tanzania while empowering local communities and protecting its natural treasures. Each adventure is more than just a trip — it’s a story, a connection, and a journey that leaves a lasting impact.
