From the office to the guide amazing you have our eternal thanks.
We approached many companies to assist us with our dream vacation , all with the exception of Goldfinch were only concerned about the sale chasing us continuously after we had made the enquiry. Brenda from Goldfinch was a totally different experience, nothing was too much trouble she was always there when we had questions and all this before we made the booking. Once we had confirmed the safari she remained at our disposal answering questions providing options and assistance even with things outside of our safari package right up until our arrival and even after the safari had ended.
Our guide was Swahibu , we met on the first day at our lodge and from that meeting , again even to now, you felt confident in his knowledge ,ability and desire to make sure you had a great time and got the most from your vacation. With his skill and knowledge we saw everything you could hope to on a safari including the big 5 , Cheetas chasing prey, so many variety’s of birds and so much more. His ability with the vehicle made you feel safe and his skill to find the right spots a dream. We would like to thank Brenda and Swahibu for their help and devotion towards us achieving our dream and will always be in their debt. Thank you both and Goldfinch

Professional operator with knowledgeable guides!
We managed to arrange a safari tailored to our needs, and with many changes to the original plan, everything arranged and followed up by Brenda (kudos!!).
Later on we managed to see the big five in just under 2 days thanks to our guide Swoahibu, who was looking out for game even when we were already tired after a full day of game, and gave us the oportunity to make the most of our safari!
Really a good choice for organizing a Safari!

First and unforgettable safari in Tanzania — dik-diks in love, bird picnics and the cutest animals!
My first safari with Goldfinch Adventures was absolutely unforgettable. They organized everything from A to Z — flights, tickets, transfers, and stunning lodges with pools where we woke up to delicious breakfasts. But the real magic happened outdoors: our breakfasts and lunches were served in the heart of nature, surrounded by birds, with breathtaking views of the national parks. We got incredibly close to so many animals — lions, elephants, giraffes and more — that we truly felt like the luckiest people alive. Our guide shared fascinating and funny facts about every single animal we encountered. The adorable dik-diks stole our hearts — these tiny creatures that always come in pairs, like a real love story in the wild. On our last day in Arusha, before the flight home, we explored the vibrant city markets and soaked in the local culture. Goldfinch Adventures delivered perfect service, reliable communication, and outstanding value. If you're dreaming of Tanzania — just go, and let them handle the rest!

Customized tour for all budgets
We had a family group of 10. Brenda was very easy to work with in terms of arranging the types and price points of accommodations that we were looking for. Our tour guides, Eric and Isaac were so gracious, knowledgeable, funny, and got us safely and on time to all of our destinations. Our trip was all by Jeep, no local flights. This was a great way to truly get a taste of Tanzania. We experienced the Big 5 and more!!

Great communications, excellent service, great value
We worked with Kelvin for our booking. He was very responsive and communicative. We had lots of special requests, and he was able to accomodate all of them without raising the prices by a lot. Unlike some other operators, the quotes went up significantly with the custom requests. He made recommadations for lodging when we didn't have one in mind, and they all turned out to be great. Our guide was Emanuel, who was so pleasant and wonderful. He has 11 years of experience and has the eyes of an eagle. He can spot the tiniest birds while driving. He was an incredible driver as well. The roads can be extremely bumpy and muddy, but he did his best to make us feel comfortable and leave his car clean. We had simple but delicious lunch every day. Overall, we were very happy with Goldfinch and thought the value for money was excellent. Would highly recommend!
Perfect

“Absolutely recommended! The safari with Goldfish Adventures, organized by Issa, was excellent. Everything was perfectly arranged, communication was easy, and we were able to see the Big Five as well as many other animals. An unforgettable experience for the whole family. Many thanks to Issa and the entire team!”

One of the best experiences of our lives!
Me and my best mate had an unreal experience with goldfinch adventures. From start to finish it was truly exceptional, the safari exceeded both our expectations! Kelvin was our coordinator who communicated everything clearly and answered all our questions, even taking time for a phone call before our departure. From here, frank was then our tour guide who has 11+ years experience with Tanzanian safaris which really showed. His knowledge, identification and dedication to show us the wildlife we endeavoured to see was incredible. Overall I couldn’t recommend goldfinch and frank enough. A shout out to Nixon and Moses for a belter last day also.
