Unforgettable 10-Day Safari Experience - We Saw the Big Five and More!
My family and I just completed an incredible 10-day northern Tanzania safari with Loren African Safaris, and it was truly a trip of a lifetime!
A huge shoutout to our amazing guides, Ali and Simon. They were exceptionally professional, responsible, and had an eagle eye for spotting wildlife. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, we successfully checked off the Big Five!
The wildlife sightings were beyond our expectations:
Action-packed Moments: We were thrilled to witness lions, cheetahs, and even a leopard in the middle of a hunt – a rare and breathtaking sight!
Ndutu Calving Season: Visiting Ndutu during the calving season was magical. We saw countless wildebeest calves, zebra foals, and even adorable lion cubs. It was heartwarming to see so much new life on the plains.
Ngorongoro Crater: The crater floor was teeming with animals. We were lucky enough to see the rare black rhino and witnessed an intense standoff between a pride of lions and a group of spotted hyenas.
The entire itinerary was well-planned, from the baobabs of Tarangire to the endless plains of the Serengeti. The accommodations recommended by the team were top-notch and offered stunning views.

good value for money
I would need more explanation from the guide about the animals during the safari. I recommend providing a PDF with information about the animals to be seen in different languages to facilitate understanding and make the most of the visit to the parks.

Personal and proffessional excellent service
From our first contact with Kelvin at Goldfinch we had confidence in his approach . He was always quick to respond and would fully answer questions and queries and giving advice when necessary and adjusting our itineary accordingly. We found Goldfinch to be excellent value for money when we compared them to other operators.
We went for a private 2 person mid range/luxury safari and trip to Zanzibar.
The safari was 5 days. Every day was incredible, our guide Abu was fantastic he was polite, friendly proffessional and knowledgable.
We saw animals in abundance and at close range
All our accommodation either lodges or tented camps were excellent, very comfortable, clean, great facilities and food.
Did the Balloon safari which was also great and the 8 days in Zanzibar was organised very well staying in two different areas but both hotels chosen were excellent.
Kelvin met us at the start of our trip, again im the middle and at the end
He was always available via email and alwsys responded promptly adjusting anything we requested
Would definately recommend and use again
Felt we got a very proffessiomsl personal service throughout
Thank you.

Professional, responsive, and deeply committed to delivering exceptional safari experiences.
We have just returned from our trip to Kenya and we are absolutely delighted that we chose this local Kenyan tour operator to organize our safari.
From the very first contact, we experienced outstanding professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care. Our itinerary and quotation were fully tailored to our wishes, and the team was flexible, attentive, and transparent throughout the entire planning process.
On site, everything was perfectly organized and seamless. We were able to fully enjoy our stay without worrying about logistics — which made the whole experience even more special and relaxing.
A very special mention to our Kenyan guide, Samson, who speaks excellent French. This truly enhanced our experience and made everything even more comfortable. He was exceptional: attentive, kind, discreet, and deeply passionate about his work. Thanks to him, we lived an extraordinary safari filled with unforgettable moments.
We highly recommend this company to anyone planning a trip to Kenya. It was truly a magical experience that we will remember for a lifetime.

Exceeded expectations
Our African safari experience exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, Simon took care of everything . Our trip was seamless ..thoughtful planning, knowledgeable guides, and true attention to detail.
Our guide Peter and Bernard were knowledgeable. Their knowledge of the wildlife, local culture, and terrain made every game drive both exciting and educational. We were able to see the animals up close in a way that felt respectful and authentic including unforgettable moments watching wildlife cross right in front of our vehicle.
The accommodations, coordination, and overall hospitality made us feel completely taken care of. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we would highly recommend this company to anyone considering a safari adventure.

Our 6-day Tanzania safari with four people was absolutely amazing. We saw plenty of incredible wildlife, including lions and cheetahs, and every moment was exciting and unforgettable. The scenery was breathtaking, and the whole experience exceeded our expectations.
The only small issue was that the hotel on the first night had some minor equipment problems, which slightly affected our rest. But overall, the trip was excellent. The guide was professional and the itinerary was well-organized.
Highly recommended for an unforgettable safari adventure!

Amazing 6 Days 5 Nights Safari in Tanzania
Just finished my 6 days 5 nights safari in Tanzania, visiting Ndutu and central Serengeti.
The wildlife experience was incredible — we saw so many lions and other amazing animals. The scenery is breathtaking!
Our guide was really nice and professional, I would definitely give 5 stars if I could.
It rains quite often there. The only issue was the first night: due to heavy rain, the main tent got blown and damaged. Other than that, everything else was great.
Overall it was an awesome trip and highly recommended!

Terrible customer service.
We believe we have been scammed by Kima Safaris. We had planned and booked a trip in the start of november 2025, but due to problems regarding the election in Tanzania, Steven told us to cancel the safari due to safety. He told assured us that all the money would be refunded, but to this day (23.02.26), nothing has been refunded. They still owe us 4600USD.
In the beginning he would answer my calls and messages, and told us that he would pay by the end of the month etc. but everytime the date he said he would pay us back was due, nothing was refunded. Now, he wont even pick up the phone and answer my calls or message me back, so we believe they have scammed us and would strongly reccomend everyone to stay AWAY from Kima Safaris Tanzania.

Wonderful safari experience
We were on a 5 day safari trip. We had both walking safari, bike safari, boat safari and car safari. It was truly an adventure. We had a fantastic stay with Manu as our guide. He was really skilled. Can't praise him enough. Extremely skilled. We saw an incredible amount of beautiful animals including the big five. Incredible to be so close to the animals.
We also had fantastic overnight stays at various hotels. The food was first class with good ingredients.
This was really great value for money. Will recommend this further.
