Well organized and helpful
I had an amazing safari experience in Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater with Goldfinch Adventures. They answered all my questions and made sure I felt well informed
Everything was very well organized, and our guide was excellent – knowledgeable, and friendly.
Ngorongoro was simply spectacular, with so many animals in one place.
This safari was unforgettable and I highly recommend
One night felt a bit short – I would recommend staying two nights to really enjoy the experience and not feel rushed

An amazing 5 day safari with the best guide
Our safari with Samuel and Goldfinch Adventures was truly exceptional. From the very beginning, he impressed us with his professionalism, deep knowledge of the animals and environment, and his warm personality. Samuel always knew where to go and had an incredible eye for spotting the animals, which gave us unforgettable encounters and views.
What we appreciated the most was how much effort he put into making sure that all our wishes were fulfilled. Whether it was finding a particular animal, explaining something in detail, or simply creating the perfect atmosphere, he always went the extra mile for us. His patience, kindness, and genuine passion for nature made the entire journey even more special.
Thanks to Samuel, this safari far exceeded our expectations and became an adventure we will never forget. We highly recommend him and Goldfinch to anyone who wants the best possible safari experience.

The best safari tour operator in Tanzania
We booked our dream honeymoon 5 day safari with Goldfinch and we couldn’t have asked for anything better!
From the get go, Brenda was responsive and organised, nothing was too much trouble and she made sure to accommodate everything that we were looking for. We had other quotes back from several other companies, but Brenda’s professionalism and responsiveness was far better than any other company we had spoken to.
We were collected from Arusha airport on the first day by Brenda and our guide for the next 5 days, Emmanuel. Emmanuel is a fantastic guide, again, nothing was too much trouble and he really went out of his way to make sure we were happy and that our safari trip was truly special. He was so knowledgeable about all of the animals and we were even lucky enough to be able to see the ‘big 5’. Emmanuel also allowed us the time to visit a Maasai village within the Ngorongoro Crater which we’d urge everyone to do if given the opportunity. It was brilliant and the people were so welcoming. It was great to get to know Emmanuel over the 5 days and we were sad to say goodbye at the end of our trip. On the last day we swapped guides and took a 2.5hr car journey from Arusha to Mt Kilimanjaro to walk the foothills to see Materuni Waterfalls, visit a coffee farm and the Chemka Hot Springs. We didn’t really know what to expect for this part of our trip, but it ended up being an amazing experience and the coffee farm and coffee tasting was another highlight for us! On the way back to the airport we met Brenda again, who gifted me a beach bag and sun hat for our onward journey to Zanzibar - such a lovely gesture!
We would recommend Goldfinch to anyone looking to book a safari trip, we had an unforgettable experience and have made memories that we will cherish forever.
Ben and Olivia Wright.

Good prompt communication — everything went as planned.
Excellent Experience, reliable Tour operator, good prompt communication, everything ran smoothly.
Great guides on the trip, Hamad and Swahibu, flowed with our pace, very informative while not too talkative.

Our tour operator was the best, he knew the best way to look for all the big five animals
We had the best experience, everybody was very nice and kind to us. And they did there best to make sure we would have a great time and a good safari experience, even for the accomodations, and the amazing food we had.

Goldfinch Adventures make dreams a reality
My partner and I opted for Goldfinch Adventures to organise and plan our 13 day combined Safari and Beach vacation in October 2025. It appears we chose wisely as we both agree it was the best vacation we have ever had (and we have been to many places!). Kelvin listened to our requirements and put together a very professional full itinerary for our private tour. Together we tweaked a couple of bits here and there before settling on the final product. Everything was taken care of, from transfers, to accommodation bookings, park fees, food & refreshments and knowledgeable guides, and for any queries he was available via WhatsApp. We swear we had the best driver/guide in Tanzania. Samwel made this trip for us with his kind heart, keen eyesight, sense of humour and expert driving skill. By the end of the week he had become a friend, after seeing the big 5 and so much more in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro. We visited Kilimanjaro and literally made our own coffee from beans to roasting to crushing and boiling. We swam in the hot spring of Chemka. Our second week was more relaxing and less complex on the white sands of Zanzibar but this too was organised by Kelvin including the domestic flight. Do not be alarmed by the "30% up front and pay the rest in cash once you get there". This appears to be typical practice for the local operators. We cannot fault any part of this trip and can thoroughly recommend Goldfinch Adventures to plan your experience of Tanzania & Zanzibar.

Excellent
Amazing 8-day private safari with Goldfinch Adventures, with excelent guide, Swahibu Othoman, who showed us so many animals and special sightings. Accommodation were fantastic, so were all arrangements done by Brenda. Tanzania stole our hearts - will definately return.
