Exceptional tour operator
Just returned from a magnificent 3 day Serengeti safari with Goldfinch Adventures .The communication from Brenda was from the beginning was 10/10, I thought, attentive and quick to answer any questions, she happily helped us with everything we needed, Our excellent guide Walanga was there to meet us on arrival at Arusha Airport. The safari started that morning and was a true marvel. Our guide Walanga had over 17 years of experience in his work and it was amazing how with his eyes he could see many animals in the distance. We were able to see all the big five over the 3 days. The accommodation on both nights was exceptional with great food, I would definitely recommend staying in a luxury tented accommodation in Serengeti as loved listening to the animals at night. It was great and felt so safe with the Masai keeping an eye on things.
It's definitely worth the price you pay. There are many companies that offer even less and are more expensive. I couldn't be happier with my experience with Goldfinch Adventures and I will recommend it to anyone who asks, as everything went fantastically beyond our expectations

Another One bites the Dust
We found this company based on their very good reviews on TripAdvisor. But after booking two safari with this company, we saw all the negative reviews they got here.
We were worried, so once we arrived in Nairobi, we visited their office straight away. The following trip to Masai Mara was great, even though we understood afterwards that the driver seemed not to have been paid.
Our second trip to Amboseli was when it went bad. The accommodation told us our rooms hasn't been paid for, the promised services and meals was not delivered, the driver didn't get the money to pay for the gas. In all cases, it costed us more money and nerves that it should have, especially after the already large initial costs.
I don't know if this is malice or incompetence, and I am glad some trips are great. This seemed to be mostly down to the drivers that are either paid in time, or locked-in waiting to be paid for.
You should not book with a company with a succes rate of 50%. Book elsewhere or directly by a driver.

Meru Slopes super!
We spent 5 days with our guide Sija spectacular.

Our guide Sija (who spoke impeccable Italian) very prepared in everything.
Ready to answer any of our questions and needs.
Always very available to our requests.
Meru Slopes highly recommended!!!!!

amazing
Unforgettable. A week has passed, and I'm still savoring it. The guide took us to see the Big Five and various animals, the sunrise and sunset over Mount Kilimanjaro, the starry sky at night, and the thoughtful service.

Trip to Hemingways Watamu
The coordination was seamless from the beginning to the end...what was sold to me is the same exact thing that I got in the Watamu trip.

perfect company provides perfect experience
Moringstar tour is a very good travel agency. You can believe them 100% when you choose this company. You don't need to consider anything after you pay. Everything is under arrangement because our guide Alex is reliable and he takes everything into consideration including how to take satisfying photos. The price maybe a little high but is valuable. I will recommend mornibgstar to my friends who want to travel here.

Perfect Safari trip
A very good journey, Alice is very professional and patient. Our guide Alex is skilled in driving, well planned, and can help us solve everything. When observing animals, one can quickly find the best location.

Alice gives very detailed plan and quote, she always gives swift response when we want to change our route and help answer questions patiently.
Our guide Alex is very trustful and friendly, he planned everything well and when we go for Safari, he can always take us to a good spot to take great pictures, he knows great angels.
Will definitely recommend Morning Star to my friends.

Tarangire and Ngorongoro crater
We booked a 2-day safari with them—and thank goodness we did!
We visited Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater, and everything was beyond perfect—it truly exceeded all our expectations.
From start to finish, everything ran smoothly. Haman was super friendly and made sure every detail was taken care of. The lodge? Absolutely dreamy—even better than we imagined!
But the real highlight was our guide, Joshua. Hands down, the best safari guide ever! He made sure we didn’t miss a thing—and yes, we even saw rhinos! 🦏
If you’re considering a safari—don’t think twice. Book with them!
Can’t wait to be back next year for the Great Migration 😍
