About

Suzanne is one of the first smiling faces (or voices!) guests connect with when planning their safari. Based in the Good Earth office, she’s the go-to for crafting unforgettable experiences, offering helpful guidance, and making sure every detail is just right. With her deep love for Tanzania’s wildlife and culture, Suzanne brings passion and personal insight to every trip she helps design.

What’s your favorite safari memory or moment?
One of my favorite safari memories was in the Central Serengeti, watching a lion in full action—hunting, catching, and eating a greater gazelle. It was absolutely incredible to witness predation happening right in front of my eyes. Moments like that remind me how raw and real the wild truly is.

What’s your favorite national park or safari destination?
Ngorongoro Crater holds a special place in my heart. It’s the world’s largest caldera and packed with wildlife, but what makes it truly unique is how humans and animals coexist. Seeing Maasai communities living in harmony with their cattle and the wild animals—it’s an amazing, peaceful balance you don’t see anywhere else.

What’s one tip for travelers visiting Africa for the first time?
My best advice? Take it slow—pole pole as we say here. Soak it all in: the culture, the people, the wildlife, the landscapes. As the saying goes, “No rush in Africa.” That’s where the magic is—when you stop trying to rush and just experience it all.

What’s your most memorable wildlife sighting?
I’ll never forget the moment a pride of lions, including tiny cubs, crossed the road right in front of our Land Cruiser in Serengeti. The cubs were so small and playful—it melted my heart! Seeing them so close was unforgettable.

What’s the best part about being part of the Good Earth Tours team?
It’s the people. I’ve learned so much from my coworkers here—not just about the job, but about teamwork and passion. At Good Earth, I didn’t just find a workplace—I found a family.
