What makes Good Earth Tours different?
Holding a unique place in the industry, Good Earth Tours is majority local owned, but also operates booking offices in the U.S. This structure allows easy coordination with North American and European customers, while simultaneously allowing Good Earth Tours to avoid the pitfalls of purely U.S.-based tour companies. U.S.-only companies subcontract by default to local companies that cannot guarantee top quality service, and none of your contributions go to support the communities and wildlife you visit Africa to enjoy. With Good Earth Tours, you get the top value for your dollar: local experience with an international presence.

Reviews and testimonials
I would recommend Good Earth Tours to anyone climbing Kilimanjaro. This tour costs around $3,000 when you go with a big American group like KE Travel. In comparison, Good Earth cost around $1,400. It's also part Tanzanian-owned, so your dollars go more directly into the local economy."Dave Greten, on his blog
Our tour company, Good Earth Tours, met us at the bus station and drove us to our hotel, Le Jocaranda. They were a very good company and they really took care of us.
Tamara, on her blog
It's the dream of almost every adventurer. Mount Kilimanjaro, the king of Africa, can be climbed in about six or seven days, and it can set you back anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000 per person. So, imagine our surprise when we discovered Good Earth Tours & Safaris, which boasts a seven-day summit trek on the Marangu route for just $720 per person. Too good to be true? Jason Bocarro, a 34-year-old traveler who lives in New Hampshire, wondered the same thing. Bocarro climbed Kilimanjaro with his wife in July, and was impressed with the Good Earth Tours experience. "The guides have been with Good Earth for a number of years. They really cater to your needs and are very flexible. I would absolutely recommend them."

We've just returned from a 6 day safari with Good Earth Tours. I can not recommend them highly enough. The tour was seamlessly organised and our guide was fantastic. We did a lot of research before going and found all the reviews on various message boards to be very complimentary. We also found them to be a lot cheaper than other companies. This was our first safari, so we didn't have anything to compare it against, but it exceeded all of our expectations. I would definately book through them again.

This company, about which others have previously inquired on this message board, provided the highest quality of service at a most affordable price which was significantly lower than other operators I priced."
