Professional and responsive tour operator in Kenya
During our communication with Kameraz of Afrika, Carol gave us lots of advices which are very helpful. She always responded swiftly and her recommended hotels were excellent. Our driver is very experienced with more than 15 years of safari tour, and he is very good at finding animals. The quotation given by Carol is reasonable, with good value for money. We enjoyed our safari tour, and would highly recommend it to those who visit Kenya.

A Memorable Safari with My Family!
My husband, daughter, and I had a truly great time on our last family safari vacation. Unlike how most people do their safaris, we decided to start ours in the afternoon and drove to Lake Manyara National Park for an evening game drive. The park was just so quiet and beautiful. Our driver (Collins) even drove us to the hot springs because it was something I really wanted to see.
After the game drive, we headed to Karatu and lodged at Farm of Dreams. The lodge was nice and cozy. Delicious food. Friendly staff. Just the perfect place to relax and unwind from a safari. My daughter even made new friends for the short time we spent in the lodge.
At 5:30 am the next day, we headed to Ngorongoro for an early morning game drive, as Deo suggested. Well, he was right. We got to see loads of animals, but the highlight of our trip to this park was when Collins got a hint from his fellow guide, who had spotted a rhino. He then rushed to that exact location, and OMG, that was the best safari moment EVER!
After all that game driving in the crater, we had brunch and headed back to Farm of Dreams, where we spent the rest of the day swimming and just having a great time. I even got to become friends with the lodge manager and owner (Irene); she’s just amazing!
We then checked out the following afternoon and slowly drove to Tarangire National Park for our last holiday game drive. Now, this park is so special to me. It brought back memories of when I was a little girl and how my dad used to drive us there. I even remember getting chased by a bull elephant on one occasion (one of the scariest days of my life)! Men, Tarangire will always be a special place for me.
After our evening game drive, we headed to Arusha and ended our almost 3-day safari.
Thank you, Deo, Collins, and all the Goldfinch Adventures family, for making this holiday special, magical, and memorable for my husband, daughter, and me.
Looking forward to the next one

Incredible Experience with ZAFS, highly recommend them for your Tanzania Trip!
We did a 12 nights day trip that included across 6 nights in North & Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park; 2 nights in transit (Dar Es Salam and Arusha) and 4 nights in Zanzibar. The experience was very comfortable from the first interaction itself - Huzeifa made time over multiple calls to understand our expectations and then help plan the trip; instead of sending us a templatised itinerary and force fitting our plans around it. He never really tried to “sell” us anything, except maybe the fact that Tanzania will blow our mind, and blow it did :) . He never pushed anything and was flexible to even let us manage our own hotel accommodation when we didn’t like any of the options he sent. While we were apprehensive about how the whole safari experience would be, the trip was super comfortable - the accommodations were great, our driver Kefa was fantastic (do ask for him if you’re planning a trip!) and the safari vehicle was absolutely top notch. The ZAFS team was very accommodative of our requests (leaving late or early, but mostly coming back late; food requests, etc.) and took extra care to ensure each aspect of the trip worked like clockwork. We even had Huzeifa himself check-in on us almost every day to ensure everything was going all right, even when we were on our own in Zanzibar. Our pick ups were always on time and all the people we interacted were warm and very friendly. Overall, very impressed with the level of service from the team and will highly recommend planning a safari with them. I’m definitely going back to Tanzania with them, this time with my whole family!

5-Star trip arrangement at a fair price
We booked the trip with Carol at the last minute when other operators told us it's too late to find a room. The price was the best compared to others too. Our guide Rama is an experienced guide, good photographer and a world class racer who made our safari an unforgettable trip. We saw all kinds of animals we expected to see and got many nice pictures and videos. The great migration and the wildebeest crossing is the most impressive scene in my life.

Patient and well-organized custom tours
Erick from Uro Adventures helped us organize a four day (three night) tour from Arusha, reaching the Serengeti (cats!) with stops at (Eephants!), Ngorongoro Crater (everything!), and Lake Manyara (monkeys!). Great communication in run up to travel, and then Erick met us at our Arusha hotel the night before our tour to make sure the plan was clear. Our driver, Omary, navigated long drives between parks with an incredible knowledge of the dirt roads that crisscrossed the parks themselves, helping us find all the Big 5 and many many more animals. We were a family of four with middle school and high school kids, and we managed to travel comfortably with stocked drinks and snacks as well as tasty meals prepared fresh each day. I really appreciated Omary’s patience in staying extra long with the lions and looking for (and finding) a leopard hiding in a tree. We also stayed a nicer hotels and a gorgeous tented camp in the Serengeti where we heard hyenas during the night and had gazelles around the tents. We highly recommend Uro Adventures!
