Personalized and excellent experience
We had a great experience traveling with Goldfinch. They are a local agency and take care of their guests in a personalized way. They were very responsive and flexible in the run up to our tour. During our trip, our guide Sam took excellent care of us and gave it his all to show us the animals we hoped to see (and we did!). We can only recommend booking with Goldfinch.

Outstanding service, with a knowledgeable and friendly guide.
From start to finish we found Goldfinch Adventures to be helpful, friendly, thorough and thoughtful. Kelvin was great helping us book the tour we wanted. He gave honest opinions about what we should do & where we should go. The price was very competitive too.
Our tour guide Ludwig (Ludo) was brilliant! He navigated us around the Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater, safely and successfully. We saw the Big 5 and so much more! We were a small family of 3 and although it is part of the job description Ludo was warm and friendly. He had a good balance of giving us time to ourselves but also joining us for meals etc.
He gave us insight into life in the Serengeti and also Tanzania itself. We felt very at home in this wonderful country, where the people all seemed warm and friendly.
I will be recommending Goldfinch, Ludo, safaris and Tanzania to all friends and family.
Thanks to all - asante!

The Safari that won’t be forgotten
We recently went on our first private safari, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment we were picked up from the hotel, everything was super well planned. Over two amazing days, we explored Tarangire and Ngorongoro with our fantastic guide, Ludo. His knowledge of wildlife made us feel safe and excited, and he was always on the lookout for interesting sights and animals.
We learned so much and felt well taken care of throughout the trip. Although we wished we could stay longer than two days, we are very grateful to have met Ludo. We highly recommend him and Goldfinch Adventures for an unforgettable safari experience and hope to see him again on our next adventure!

Absolutely Brilliant Service and Safari
We picked Goldfinch adventures from a list of safari operators who gave us quotes for our first safari. Deo from the beginning was patient and accommodating to our requests. Nothing was too much trouble and he was absolutely patient till we could finalise our plans and make the bookings.
Once we were in Tanzania he was at hand to help and coordinate with all the travel related elements as we went from Zanzibar to Serengeti. Deo had arranged all internal transport and flights making this element for us fairly stress free.
In Serengeti on landing at Seronera airstrip we were picked up by our Driver/guide Mr. Ludovick who was nothing short of excellent for all 5 days of our trip and made the safari a thorughly enjoyable experience.
I would highly recommend Deo and Team. A great 5 star service.

Very beautiful experience
We were in 4 and were picked up in Zanzibar to fly to Arusha for a 3 days safari including Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara national parks. Everything was very fine thanks to a very good organization. Many thanks to Robert, who remotely supported us, and Frankie, our guide during the safari. Highly recommended

Wonderful time with Goldfinch
We went into safari planning without any idea of how to select the right tour operator, and were fortunate to book our trip with Goldfinch Adventures. From the start, Deo was the most responsive out of the few tour companies we contacted. His personable and communicative style was very assuring especially since we were located halfway across the world. This was also a special trip for us and we were really spoiled by the choice of accomodations. They were all highly rated and made our safari experience so comfortable and luxurious.
Kudos to our driver and guide, Frank. Our short 5D/4N itinerary across three major parks meant long distances, occasionally on rough roads, and Frank kept us safe. He's a very skilled and careful driver, and knew the parks routes by heart. We saw so much wildlife including the Big 5, and enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you Goldfinch for a holiday we will never forget!

Deo is an excellent guy, we took care of everything you need for a safari tour in Tansania.
First of all we want to say great thanks to our organisator Deo. From the beginning of our Safari tour(including welcoming us in Arusha Airport) until the last time he helped us and took care of us very well. Whatever we ask him a question he answered very kindly and quickly. If you have any questions about the tour, don't hesitate to contact with him, actually he will answer your questions before you asked him 😉
~Duration of Safari Tour~
we booked a 4-day Safari tour. It was very suitable for a great experience. We think that, 4-Day tour is the best choice, 3 days could be short and 5 days maybe too much.
~Accomodation~
We stayed first night in a lodge, that was okay, other two days we stayed in a tent at camping site, we should say that camping site organisations was not so good, usually they don't have enough hot water to take a shower and don't have enough charging slots for our mobile devices. But this part is the under control of camping sites.
~Driver and Cook~
On the other hand we had a great driver and a very talented cook :) food was also very tasty and traditional.
Everyone should have this experience at least once in a life. You will have amazing memories at the end of this trip. We suggest you to take a professional photo machine to take great pictures of wild animals.
Strongly suggest to everyone Goldfinch Adventures to feel this amazing experience 👍💪
Kind regards from Refik and Ümran

Perfect Safari and unforgettable moments
We booked the safari in Germany, and Deo Robert provided us with extensive guidance beforehand. He took all of our wishes into account and put together a fantastic package. We were picked up from the airport and then greeted personally by Deo. After a day in Arusha, an unforgettable journey through Tarangire Park, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater began. Our tour guides were very experienced, courteous and friendly. The accommodation was also excellent. Everything went well. We can look back on a wonderful, impressive time and would like to say thank you to Goldfinch Adventures and everyone involved.

Excellent Safari, amazing experience!
It was a great tour. The first day we visited the Materuni waterfall and learned a lot about Coffee production. The second day we spend at Tarangire National Park and saw many zebras and elephants. We took a rest at Osupuko Lodge with very nice rooms, pool and a magnificent view over the Park.
The next three days we visited the Serengeti Park and saw an uncountable number of animals, included lions, leopards and gepards. We slept at the luxury Into-Wild Africa tented lodge.
At the Ngorongoro crater we saw a rhino, which is a very rare occasion. We will never forget our last night at the marvelous MaweMawe Manyara Lodge.

Deo Robert and Frank are where professionalism and perfectionism meet.
Deo Robert and Frank are where professionalism and perfectionism meet. We had wonderful and unforgettable holidays.
Our eight-day itinerary started in Arusha. We were picked up from Arusha airport and headed to the hotel in the city where we stayed for 2 nights with a day trip to the waterfall which was combined with coffee history in Materuni.
We then went to Tarangire National Park. We stayed one night in Osupuko Lodge. This lodge is amazing with a river view.
Our next Safari adventure was the Serengeti Park via Ngorongoro crater. We stayed three nights in an Into-Wild Africa rented lodge. We got to explore the Serengeti Park immensely.
On our last day of Safari, we visited the Ngorongoro crater and spent a night in MaweMawe Manyara Lodge. It was pure relaxation with a great view of Manyara Lake.
* During our booking, Deo Robert was very professional. Great communication and quick responses to questions.
* Payments were easily done online.
I will always choose the Goldfinch Safari Tour and would recommend it to anyone.
