The tour operator was outstanding — reliable, well-organized, and great value.
My safari in the Masai Mara was nothing short of extraordinary. The vast golden plains stretched endlessly, alive with wildlife and framed by the dramatic African sky. One of the highlights was watching majestic lions up close — some lounging in the shade, others on the move — an awe-inspiring sight I’ll never forget.
I was also lucky enough to witness the Great Migration, a breathtaking natural spectacle as thousands of wildebeest and zebras thundered across the plains and braved the Mara River. The sheer scale and energy of it was beyond anything I could have imagined.
Beyond the wildlife, each game drive felt like a true adventure — from tracking elusive leopards to watching graceful giraffes, playful elephants, and vibrant birdlife. Our guide’s deep knowledge of both the animals and Maasai culture made every sighting more meaningful.
Tour Operator & Overall Experience
From the very first inquiry, communication with the tour operator was prompt, clear, and friendly. Every question was answered in detail, and the itinerary was tailored perfectly to my needs. On the ground, everything ran smoothly and on time — transfers, game drives, and lodge arrangements — showing true reliability and professionalism.
The value for money was exceptional, considering the high-quality accommodation, well-maintained safari vehicles, and the expertise of our guide. I felt well looked after from start to finish, and there were no hidden costs or surprises.
The Masai Mara’s magic is unmatched, and between the stunning sunrises, fiery sunsets, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and the flawless service from the tour team, this trip has left me with memories I’ll treasure forever. I’m already dreaming of the day I return.

Amazing
A perfectly organized trip to Kenya! Our travel agent was always available and very patient, responding to our every need with kindness and professionalism.
A special thanks to our driver Raphael: his experience and calm demeanor allowed us to enjoy unique emotions during the safari, facing even the unexpected with a smile and his legendary “hakuna matata.”
An unforgettable adventure that we will always carry in our hearts!
Amazing, friendly and efficient

The tour operator was exceptionally organized, friendly, and made my safari experience unforgettable
booked my safari with Taratibu Adventure Africa and overall had a great experience. Our driver, Godson, was very skilled — both as a driver and as a guide — and his deep knowledge of the wildlife and the landscape made the trip special. We were lucky to witness the great migration and saw plenty of animals up close, which was an unforgettable highlight. The service felt personal, and for the price, the safari offered good value for money.
Amazing wildlife viewing in a stunning setting.

Great Safari Experience with Bashir and Fadhil
We had an extraordinary 3-day experience with a lot of wildlife in Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro National Parks. Fadhil with his exzraordinary eyes spotted every animal from the far and drove us near by so that we could take marvelous photos. He took care of all our wishes and tried to provide the best experience possible. We spend three really great days and can recommend Fadhil an Bashir to all people interested in doing safaris around Arusha.

Impressive
We chose Gosheni after seeing raving reviews and decided to choose them as we believe they are worth the price.
Operational was a little bit disappointment as we met with some issues during the tour. However, their person in charge do step up and assist to solve all the issues.
Even to the extend of driving a new jeep to Serengenti to switch our jeep which is another 8hrs drive. This can show that they really take care of their customers and sincerely do want to solve all the problems to ensure you have a good trip.
We were assigned to Inno Marufu in Tanzania and he can really drove in the dark and able to navigate anywhere. He did not mind when we wanted to end late to try to see more animals or even suggested us to leave earlier so we can still see what we want. Together with the long driving, its pretty tedious for the driver guide.
We love the stay in Lake Manayara however due to long journey, we always did not get to see or enjoy the hotel facilities. And it would be better if the person who suggested this route could have given a better advice on which route to be consider to take a plane or even staying inside the crater to reduce the travelling time.
Overall, we are still pleased with the service as the guide do show us what we see and also explain to us the crossing is not everyday and we tried our best but did not see them.
Most importantly, Inno respect the animals boundaries and did not cave in when we insisted to go nearer during the migration. He will always tell us to wait at the side so animals have their space and only go nearer when it is safer or we only can see from an instance. Unlike other operators, they dash next to the wilderbeest whenever they tried to cross and this cause the animals to react out of nature.
As much as we wanted to take impressive photos, being able to say NO to other guides and stopping them is remarkable.
They did not give in to tourism or customers or for money. They truely enjoy sharing the experience and the culture of Africans.
Thank you for the experience, we will love it more if logistic is less tedious and not so many hiccups. But overall, is fine. Enjoy the process and everything is Hakuna Matata.

Perfect organization, excellent guide!
Our 5-day safari with Goldfinch Adventures was just unforgettable.
From the very start, Brenda made everything easy. Her replies were lightning-fast, clear, and full of helpful details, which meant all we had to do was show up and enjoy. Once on safari, Emanuel took the experience to another level. He has this rare combination of patience, kindness, smiles and an incredible talent for spotting wildlife. Sometimes we had no idea where to look, and suddenly he’d point out a lion perfectly camouflaged in the bush or a cheetah with her cubs. He was the best guide we could ask for and the time with him past too fast. We came home with hundreds of photos, but more importantly, memories that we’ll carry for a lifetime.
