A lot to see, great experience
Just wrapped up an incredible safari experience! We saw everything from majestic lions and elephants to herds of zebras grazing in the wild. Every moment felt like a scene from a nature documentary, and our guide’s knowledge made it even more unforgettable. Definitely a bucket list experience!

Unforgettable Tanzania experience with Shemeji Safari
We got back from our Tanzania-Zanzibar round trip about a week ago, and the many beautiful memories remain, which is largely thanks to Shemeji Safari / Paradise Wilderness, with whom we carried out this trip. A year ago, we contacted Shemeji Safari and started planning our individual trip together with them – we took some modules from their program one-to-one, others were flexibly adapted and added. We would particularly like to thank Tomas Vyvial, who took excellent care of us before and during the trip! We always had a competent contact person who was available per email and WhatsApp throughout our journey, and when we had a minor issue (which happened only once or twice), he was immediately on hand and offered a solution so that we were able to continue without any problems.
If anyone is planning a trip to Tanzania/Zanzibar, we can highly recommend the team at Shemeji Safari/Paradise Wilderness, and if you work with Tomas, you will be in the best of hands. We have already recommended him to friends and colleagues, and who knows, he may well hear from one or the other... 😊.

Knowledgeable, Fun and Patient
We spent six days in Rwanda with David and we couldn't be more appreciative for his friendliness, skill, and remarkable insight. He took us on a thrilling and thorough city tour of Kigali, as well as driving us to and from Volcanoes National Park. We learned so much from him and would highly recommend him as a tour guide!!

Very easy to work with.
Very easy to communicate with. Fast responses and quick to trouble shoot any issues. Great visuals on website and app for a clear description of the itinerary. Over all the trip ran very smoothly and lived up to expectations. Excellent value for money. The only downside is that most of the accomodation was booked a bit far from the national parks/ game reserves. Would have been better to be given an option between cheaper accoms vs convenience of location. I am more inclined to pay more and stay closer. However this was only an issue in Namibia with long driving distances and petrol stations being 30-60 mins away. All accomodations were otherwise great places to stay!

Beyond my wildest imagination
After a two month search for a suitable tour and travel company that would be able to efficiently handle our large number ,we came across Africa vision safaris and took a step of faith in contacting them. Their team was nothing short of professional taking into account each and every one of us as we had different needs and specifications. Their responses were timely and precise ensuring that we were well taken care of. Considering that some people within the group were vegetarian and pescatarian ,Africa vision safaris ensured that our meal plans were perfect. We then booked the safari with them and in October we finally went to Africa. Their team was outstanding during our arrival all the way through to the beginning of our safari. We were in for a 6 day safari visiting the Amboseli national park,lake Nakuru and finally the Masai Mara .This was a fantastic and fascinating experience. The manner in which everything was done was so smooth that all we had to do was be present. Beyond the experience in the wild, the hotels and lodges that we were placed in were too notch with an amazing faculty.Finally after our safari came to an end I couldn’t believe what happened next, our young ones had a hard time saying goodbye to our guides . It seemed that they grew fond of the guides in a short span of time. Our first African trip was one for the books and I believe it was all thanks to Africa Vision safaris

proven good agency, it's not worth the risk to find a better or cheaper one
the agency is responsive, listens to wishes and gives honest advice. In my opinion, the most important thing is the driver or the guide. We had Leroy. He really went out of his way to make sure we had a great time and saw more wildlife than I would have ever expected. Thank you Leroy

Dreamlike Unforgettable Safari Experience with Goldfinch Adventures
Introduction
“A safari is more than just an adventure – it’s a journey into unspoiled nature, where the sounds of the savannah and the roars of lions create a backdrop for unforgettable experiences. Amidst majestic landscapes and impressive wildlife, you find a unique connection to nature. Recently, we had the pleasure of going on safari with Goldfinch Adventures, and the experiences we had were simply extraordinary. From excellent advice to delicious meals and a dedicated guide – we want to share this incredible experience with you.”
Excellent Consultation
“The consultation we received from Goldfinch Adventures was outstanding. Particularly important is the expertise of a local, as only they know the best lodges, parks, and routes that make the safari experience unforgettable. Our advisor had not only alternatives at hand but also specific lodge suggestions in every park that perfectly matched our wishes. This personalized approach and in-depth knowledge of the region ensured that we made the most of our adventure.”
Culinary Delights
“We were also impressed by the excellent food and the wide selection of drinks available during the tour. Each meal was a delight, perfectly integrated into our safari experience, allowing us to refuel and enjoy the local cuisine while soaking in the beautiful surroundings.”
Outstanding Guide
“Our guide was not only incredibly friendly but also exceptionally knowledgeable. He always knew the best spots for animal sightings and had a keen sense of where we could see the famous Big Five. Thanks to his extensive knowledge of the wildlife and environment, we were able to witness unforgettable moments, including elephants, lions, rhinos, buffaloes, and leopards... in their natural habitat!”
Dreamy Lodges
“The lodges we stayed in were simply breathtaking. Each one offered a unique atmosphere and exceptional comfort, making our nights under the stars even more magical.”

Regardless of whether we had questions about the route or special requests, our contact person was always reachable and quick to assist us. This constant support gave us a sense of security and made the experience even more enjoyable.”
Conclusion
“A highlight of our safari was undoubtedly the opportunity to witness the great migration from Kenya to Tanzania up close. At the end of October, when animals move in massive herds across the Serengeti, the impressive dynamics of nature come to life. It was breathtaking to see the mighty wildebeest and zebra herds in motion and to witness the drama of predators on the hunt. These experiences will stay with us forever and confirm that a safari with Goldfinch Adventures is an absolute must for any nature and animal lover.”

Very respectful and with a lot of knowledge
It was great we learned a lot with Stalneys knowledge! We saw almost every big 5, just missed the leopard, which Stanley tried to find! He answers all the questions and tries to teach as much as he can.
Seen lots of different species of animals, loved!
