In our tour company, we don’t just take you on safari — we craft journeys that are personal, seamless, and deeply connected to the land. What sets our tours apart is the level of care we put into every detail, from handpicking trusted lodges that feel like home, to working with experienced local guides who know where to find the magic — whether it’s a lion pride resting under an acacia or a rare rhino sighting in the crater.
You won’t find cookie-cutter itineraries here. Each tour is tailor-made to fit your travel style, budget, and pace — with the flexibility to add special touches like a hot air balloon ride, cultural visits, or even last-minute changes when needed.
Most importantly, we treat every guest like family. We’re with you every step of the way — before, during, and after the safari — ensuring you feel safe, supported, and inspired. That’s the Goldfinch difference: personal, passionate, and profoundly unforgettable.

1Lake Manyara National Park
Your journey begins with a warm welcome in Arusha, followed by a scenic drive to Lake Manyara National Park — a jewel nestled between the Great Rift Valley and a shimmering alkaline lake. As you enter the park, the landscape transforms into a lush forest teeming with baboons, blue monkeys, and the park’s famous elephants. But what truly sets Manyara apart is its rare population of tree-climbing lions — keep your eyes on the branches! A guided game drive along the lake’s edge and through fig-tree forests sets the tone for the adventure ahead. In the late afternoon, you’ll head to Heart & Soul Lodge, where you can relax, swim, and enjoy sweeping views of the valley. Enjoy dinner under the stars, with the sounds of nature around you and the excitement of safari already in motion.

2Serengeti National Park
After an early breakfast, you'll begin the climb up into the Ngorongoro Highlands, passing misty forests and coffee plantations before descending onto the vast Serengeti plains. The transformation is dramatic — from lush hills to golden savannah as far as the eye can see. The Central Serengeti is known for its abundant wildlife and resident big cats, including leopards, cheetahs, and lion prides that call this region home year-round. Today’s game drive will take you across open plains, past granite kopjes, and along seasonal rivers — each turn bringing the chance for an unforgettable sighting. As the sun begins to set, you'll arrive at Safari Haven, a tented camp nestled deep within the park. With a crackling fire, chilled drinks, and the distant sounds of hyenas and lions, the magic of the Serengeti begins to unfold.

3Serengeti National Park
Wake up to the call of the wild. After breakfast, another thrilling game drive awaits — or, for those seeking a once-in-a-lifetime view, you can opt for a hot air balloon safari over the Serengeti at dawn (optional). With fewer vehicles and a deep sense of calm, the morning hours are ideal for spotting elusive predators on the move. Later, you'll transfer to Kankari Lodge, located in the Karatu region near Ngorongoro. On the way, enjoy a final Serengeti drive and stunning views as you journey through the highlands. In the afternoon, you can visit a traditional Maasai village, where you’ll gain insight into their culture, traditions, and lifestyle — an experience that adds cultural depth to your safari. Settle in for the evening at the lodge, with time to relax, reflect, and prepare for the grand finale of your safari.

4Ngorongoro Crater
Today you’ll explore one of the most extraordinary wildlife areas on Earth — the Ngorongoro Crater. After an early breakfast, you’ll descend over 600 meters into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Enclosed by towering walls, the crater is home to nearly every major species of East African wildlife, including lions, hyenas, wildebeests, zebras, elephants, and the elusive black rhino. With lush grasslands, forests, and a central lake dotted with flamingos, this is nature’s version of a perfect amphitheater. Midday, enjoy a scenic picnic lunch near a hippo pool before continuing your game drive. In the afternoon, you'll begin your journey back to Arusha, filled with unforgettable memories and stories from your 4-day adventure across Tanzania’s most iconic landscapes.
