Thorough and thoughtful, comprehensive and complete.
Goldfintch arranged for us to be picked up at our hotel in Nairobi. We wanted to cross the border by land. Gifty our driver was timely and exceptional. There was no question he could not answer. His knowledge of the Maasai people was remarkable.
Our first accommodations were just alright but the people were fabulous and we fully enjoyed the restaurant and its ambience. Brenda our agent and our safari driver Sammie met us there and went over the full itinerary. Nice touch! Dinner was a part of our package. The next morning when we showed up for breakfast, our driver was waiting. This guy took things to another level. His knowledge extended from knowing about the Maasai almost as if he was one, to extensive knowledge about birds, every animal we encountered, and every town we went through.
After the Tarangire Safari, we stayed at the Suricata Boma Lodge, which quite made up for any short comings of the first. It was first class in every way imaginable. To add to that, GoldFintch arranged a very special private dinner on Lake Manyara, to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. And special it was.
The next day we went to Ngorongoro Crater and again our driver was spectacular in his knowledge of the crater and everything in it. And lets not forget the culture of the communities along the way. I highly recommend GoldFintch and will use them again on my next visit.

Meektrails offers seamless, personalized safaris with warm service and expert guides
We had an exceptional 7-day safari experience in Kenya with Meektrails, covering Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara. From start to finish, the communication was clear, timely, and professional. Peris, the main point of contact, was consistently helpful and responsive throughout the planning and trip.
On arrival, a personal welcome and thoughtful gift set the tone for the journey. The itinerary was well-organized, and the accommodations were comfortable—two of which were generously upgraded, adding a special touch. The guide, Julius, was knowledgeable, patient, and a pleasure to travel with.
Meektrails delivered outstanding value for money, with reliable logistics, personalized service, and genuine care for their guests' comfort. The experience was seamless and deeply memorable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and well-curated Kenyan safari

The travel agency provided us with a lot of travel suggestions and reasonable pricing for the itinerary, which we can communicate with through WeChat. The guide arranged a pick-up service from the moment we got off the plane, and now we are also being escorted by the guide. The whole process was very reassuring and safe. On the way to Safari, the guide kept looking for many animals for us, and we were very happy the whole time，I will introduce this travel agency to our friends

Wonderful Guide, Unforgettable Trip
We are very happy with our 6 day trip to Tanzania as it went off without a hitch. We had planned the trip with Amos who is also the owner Migration Venture Africa. He worked with my wife and I to craft a great sxhedula with all the activites and places that we wanted to visit. He also helped us to get very good lodges at reasonable rates. Temba our safari guide picked us from our the African Tulip hotel in Arusha and stayed with us for the entire trip. He was wonderful as a guide and also great as a traveling companion. his knowledge of the roads, parks and nature made the journey smooht as he drive well, freely shared infornmation and also ensured that we were safe at al times. The vehicle was spasious. comfortable and very strong. It took us to all the corners of the parks without any issues.
I have nothing but gratitude to Migration Venture Africa, for exceeding all our expectations.

Trustworthy operator with an amazing staff
First I would like to say that I could not be happier with my experience with Crater Explorer. Since the first time we got in touch until the moment he dropped us off at the airport, Emmanuel was always responsive and easy to communicate with. He even went out of his way to help us paying for a dinner by lending us money because we did not have Tanzanian shillings.
The hotel we stayed at in Arusha (Venice hotel) was clean and the food was good so basically what you need for a 1 night stay before and after the Safari.
The Safari in itself is something I will not try to evaluate because I do not have words that can describe what I lived through. What I can talk about is the two members of the Crater Explorer crew who accompanied us throughout the 4 days and the places we spent our nights in.
Charles, the guide, is just a chill guy who loves to drive around and see some animals. He clearly had a trained eye as he was able to find animals while driving that we easily missed. I also found it really impressive how he was able to answer all the questions the group threw at him. I can tell he is a great professional and also a very good and safe driver which is very important in Tanzania.
The other member is Emmanuel, the “stomach engineer”, a truly loving and caring person. He cooked us some really great dishes and the quantity was always more than enough. I would sometimes compare the food we were eating to other groups and I could tell we were very well served. On the first night, my partner had a stomach issue (most likely traveler’s diarrhea) and Emmanuel made sure she ate the right things for the rest of the trip. On top of that he made her a ginger tea which even though was really hard to drink, got the job done and she did not have any more issues.
In terms of sleeping conditions, the first night we slept in Jambo Campsite and Lodge. The room was clean and comfortable. The second night was spent in Seronera Campsite, right in the middle of the Serengeti. In this area the water and energy supplies are limited. In the final night we stayed at Ngorongoro Simba Public Campsite and there I lived through one of the most exciting experiences of my life. The camp sits on top of the Crater, it has great views and a very vast and soft grass floor. For this reason, the camp gets crowded with buffalos and zebras. Sleeping in a tent surrounded by buffalos ripping grass out of the floor right next to my ear is something I could have never imagined doing but will never forget for the rest of my life. The water and electricity work perfectly in this camp.
Thank you Crater Explorer for providing me with a lifetime experience. I will forever be thankful and will always recommend.
