Well organised, flexible and friendly - highly recommended!
Our family (2 adults, 3 teenagers) had a 5-day safari trip in the Northern circuit organised by Goldfinch Adventures, a small local company run by the super-organised Kelvin. During the booking process and throughout the safari, Kelvin personally responded quickly and helpfully to questions by email and text. He even came to the airport to meet us at the start and end of the trip to make sure we were looked after. All flight and taxi transfers from Dar Es Salaam and Zanzibar were also organised for us.
The journeys and game drives were well planned, and the days were full but not too tiring. The jeep was comfortable with enough space for us and our suitcases and well-stocked with soft drinks and beers to help us through the hotter parts of the day!
We opted for mid-range accommodation and stayed in very comfortable and clean lodges which had excellent dinners and breakfast and also provided delicious packed lunches of rice and curries every day. Vegetarians were well catered for.
Our experienced safari guide, Emmanuel, was simply fantastic, with a brilliant knowledge of the plants, birds and animals in each park and and a sharp eye for spotting shy creatures. He was a really careful driver on some tricky roads, and in the face of some aggressive elephants! He was patient and friendly and really looked after us, ensuring we were comfortable on the trip and well fed while also making sure we all saw our favourite animals.
We also opted for the Ol Doinyo Lengai hike, and Kelvin adapted the rest of our tour for this to get us there and back and give us time to rest after the hike. He also arranged for a excellent local
Masai guides Makoi and Matai to make sure we made it up and down the challenging hike safely.
We really appreciated how personalised the trip felt thanks to Kelvin - it really was an holiday of a lifetime and we have no hesitation in recommending Goldfinch Adventures to anyone considering travelling in Tanzania!

The safari was excellent and we saw the big 5!
The safari was really good. Tarangire and Ngorongoro are very beautiful and I could see the big 5 of Africa. The price was also very good.

Professional and reliable
We are so pleased that we chose Enkarewa Safaris! Nelly arranged the airport pick up, amazing accommodation at Serena lodge, Amboseli and even our onward train tickets to Mombasa! Nelly was always warm and courteous with my numerous enquiries prior the trip.
Simon met us at Nairobi airport and from the start was warm, cheerful and friendly with our family group.
The two night, three day safari in Amboseli has been a magical experience. Simon ensured that we maximised our time in the park and saw the majestic elephant herds, hippo’s, hyenas, gazelle, impala, wildebeest, giraffe and Lions- to name a few. This has been an incredible experience made even more so thanks to Simon. A huge thank you to Simon and Nelly. We 100% recommend choosing Enkarewa.

Excellent transfers
Short journey for our pick up and a more lengthy 6 hour drive back to Johannesburg for our flight home. Both drivers friendly, professional and on time. More importantly, we felt very safe in their care and were kept well informed throughout our journeys. We would recommend.

Beyond expectations
Back from the African dream!
Doing a multiple country safari (Kenya & Tanzania), was the best choice we made, advised by Perminus!
Picked up by our guide Patrick, who welcomed us in Nairobi and of we went to the Masai Mara. Truly wonderful, having a guide who is able to give interesting facts about animals, plants & culture is really a bonus. As it was not my first time in the continent he didn’t disappoint at all. Facts about animal small and big, and able to answer my questions. This is exactly what you need whether it’s your first or second safari.
Sleeping inside the reserve gave us the real African Bush experience, what we were looking for. Able to plan the day as we want sometimes a full day safari or only morning and afternoon! To finish our wonderful stay in the mara, we were welcomed on a Sundowner Drink.
Ready for the Serengeti, as we were dropped off at the border our second guide Medi was already waiting for us, helping us to the border check and up to the Serengeti.
Being able to see the wildebeest migration was real blessing. Also this time the guide was able to give us some amazing sightings, understanding the animals, knowing what their next move will be, us waiting for a bit longer for example at a Cheetah sighting, as he said he will get up and come drink after he feasted on his kill. And yes he was right, perfectly positioned for photographic point of view we truly enjoyed this.
A tip from my travel point of view don’t rush with locations and lodges, but stay a bit longer in a place to feel and live the experience.
In a nutshell, really recommend Africa Marvel Tours in every aspect. Thanks

Professional, knowledgeable, friendly and fun.
Well organised tours by friendly and professional operators. Right from the time of booking, excellent communication with a clear itinerary provided. The tour guides were knowledgeable and fun and knew where to look to find the best sightings, with all of the big five seen among numerous animals. When a paring of our group had a surprise engagement, the guides went out of their way to help celebrate the moment, even providing us with champagne! Would highly recommend this team.
