Absolutely excellent safari!
My Mum and I did a 3 day, 2 night fly-in safari from Zanzibar and it was amazing! The whole process was extremely organised to every single detail. Our guide Ludo was fantastic and went over and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible - which we did (Big 5 and many more!!). We would 100% recommend Goldfinch Adventures!
Great Tour Operator
Brenda Malley was absolutely fantastic in planning and executing our itinerary. Properties that Brenda chose for our stay were very good, given the limited availability owing to the peak season. Communication by Brenda was consistent and always prompt. Our guide and driver Lazaro went above and beyond in making sure that we had an absolutely great time during our safari with great sighting of the wildebeest migration over Mara River and big five.
An absolutely unbelievable experience, a must!
I don’t normally leave reviews but I had to make an exception for this. What an amazing 4 days/ 3 nights experience on our very first Safari!
Firstly a huge shoutout to Deo @ Goldfinch Adventures our organiser who made the transition effortless. We made contact in March 25 and just completed our tour in July 25. Firstly communication and responses were instant via email, to which then we switched to speaking over WhatsApp who would answer my numerous questions within hours. This was an extra special trip especially for me as I wanted to propose to my girlfriend. Deo advised how best to play it out and in which location, arranging with the local accommodation a special setup for the last evening. The plan came together and she said YES!! - Deo brother, you are a legend.
We had a private tour which entailed just myself and my new fiancée in the 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser. A lot of other tours were crammed with upto 6 people in one vehicle, which would have been really uncomfortable. Especially as you carry your suitcases with you. We did see another Goldfinch Adventures 4x4 along our tour which again had only another couple in.
Secondly a huge shoutout to Sele our driver/guide who has nearly 30 years experience of Safari tours and the Serengeti. The man is a walking/ talking satnav and such a knowledgable man. For 3 solid days, we covered maybe 400-500 miles looking for animals and not once did he use maps. He knew exactly where to go. Now you might say it’s his job, but you wait until you experience this for yourself.. I can very easily find my way around the UK.. road signs, points of interest etc. Not out here.. one track leads to another, the next one leads you into a swamp.. nothing's straight, you don’t know if your facing north, east, south or west. it blew my mind! 😂 Talking of animals, we managed to see everything we wanted and more. The BIG 5 complete✅ A very rare sighting of a Leopard relaxing up a tree was a highlight. Face to face with numerous Lions and there family’s! Elephants, Giraffe’s, Buffalo, Hyena’s and the illusive Rhino in the Ngorongoro Crater along with all the more common animals.. our instagram story has not stopped going off and the comments from back home have been very jealous of our entire trip.
The accommodation we stayed at was fantastic. We especially liked Acacia Farm Lodge & Moyo Tented Camp. The food and rooms here were unreal. Not what we were expecting so far from home but it definitely exceeded our expectations.
Truely an amazing experience that was made a hell of a lot easier from Deo, Sele and the Goldfinch Adventures Team. I promise you won’t be disappointed!
100% worth every penny we spent!
The best experience from 1st email to finish
Firstly, Brenda, who organised our tour, was fantastic. Responded very quickly to my messages and quickly adjusted the tour with the amendments I wanted to make.
Secondly, Emanuel, our driver, was brilliant. He was friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable throughout the 4days. His driving was safe at all times. He managed to find all the animals on our list and got as close as possible when allowed.
Finally, the recommended accommodation was amazing. We stayed in a lodge, tented camp, and upgraded hotel all had great locations, facilities and fantastic food.
I highly recommend Goldfinch and the team.

Incredible 4 Day Safari with Samweli
This 4 day safari was the trip of a lifetime. Flying in and out of Zanzibar, we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Each park offered stunning scenery and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Our guide, Samweli, was exceptional. His knowledge, kindness, and dedication made the experience truly special. He went out of his way to make sure we saw as much as possible and felt completely taken care of.
The lodges were beautiful, each with its own unique charm and amazing service. And the food throughout the trip was delicious, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better safari and tour guide, Samweli.
