Amazing! Thank you Ways of Africa!
Two weeks in September/October 2024, we traveled to Kenya. Last time we used a travel company for the entire trip, but this time we put together our own trip. For the safari, we received quotes from 7 different providers, and Ways of Africa came out on top in terms of price, logistics, and customization. I can’t praise Paul and Ways of Africa enough! We started the process about 8 months in advance. Paul was the only one who called while sending the offer. It was very reassuring. We had some adjustments that he handled excellently, and he even bought train tickets for us that we needed later in the holiday.
After our first night at the hotel, it was time for the safari. Paul and his lovely wife met us in the hotel reception with a gift (!), a quick review of the trip, and handed over the train tickets. I have never experienced such good service. He introduced us to the driver, Wilson, who was warm and welcoming. Everything was set for a fantastic trip.
Since we have friends who work and have lived in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, we had some adjustments during the safari trip. Wilson handled this with a big smile. He was experienced and had a lot of knowledge about both the animals and the area. We couldn’t have had a better experience. The drive from Nairobi to Ol Pejeta and back took a few hours, but it was never boring. Wilson guided us with information about the places we passed, we had great conversations, and even sang along in the car 😊
If you are planning a trip, especially if it is your first time, contact Paul and Ways of Africa. You will have a safe trip with very nice people at a reasonable price. We can’t praise them enough, and we have memories for a lifetime thanks to them. Thank you so much, you are unique!

The best New Year's trip
We were looking for a suitable tour operator to organise our safari and finally decided on Ways of Africa Travel. We have not regretted our choice! We chose a private tour with visits to Ambosela, Nakuru and the Masai Mara. All the details were discussed with Paul by email and as a result we got a customised tour. We are very grateful for the opportunity to pay for part of the tour in cash as it is difficult to transfer e-money out of our country at the moment. We started our journey from the hotel on the morning of the 1st of January and ended it at the airport in Nairobi on the 6th of January.
Our driver and guide was Frank, he is a true professional. He didn't just drive us around the parks, he answered all our questions about the animals and the culture of Kenya. During our tour we spontaneously decided to visit Lake Naivasha and Frank organised this without any problems.
The car was very comfortable and suitable for the safari, especially as we were travelling alone with my partner. We had an amazing time and saw many animals. We were particularly impressed by the herds of elephants grazing in Amboseli Park. Incredibly beautiful, majestic and wise animals!
I would also like to mention the camps we stayed in. We were pleasantly surprised that the camps were more like full hotels with buffets, pools and bars than tented camps. We particularly liked the camp next to Amboseli Park - Sentrim Amboseli Lodge, which is also home to many beautiful birds and a few dik-diks. Maili Saba Camp - is a long way from Nakuru, so we had to get up very early before the game drives, but the camp itself was very peaceful and the service was first class. Fisi Camp - was the simplest of all the camps we stayed at, nevertheless it was lovely to sit on the veranda at sunset and look out over the Masai Mara Park and see the giraffes and gnus walking around.
This trip was an unforgettable experience!

Wonderful experience of Africa and it’s beautiful. We created unforgivable memories!
We had amazing safari experience with very professional driver Paul who told us lots about Africa and animals and was wonderful company for our 6 days of safari.
I had a dream to photograph and see all Africa and African animals and my dream came true. Paul made sure we got as close to the animals as possible, so I have perfect shots of all big five and ugly five.
Our accommodations were lovely with a beautiful views of Africa 🇰🇪
We enjoyed all 6 days and we are taking home all the lovely memories of the nature, animals and friendly people. We would definitely recommend to everybody to experience the same.
Thank you for making our holiday so special.

A perfect experience from planning to the end - highly recommended to plan your trip to Kenya!
We have decided quite late to visit Kenya during the festive period and we have contacted Ways of Africa Travel to help us. We did not regret it!
Paul was super efficient to provide us with an itinerary based on our initial request. After a few adjustments (e.g. we requested a specific lodge in Maasai Mara based on reviews we had read), we received the itinerary that we wanted and we confirmed it.
We got all the information we needed to get ready for the trip and we were in regular communication with Paul over WhatsApp for any questions.
We arrived in Nairobi the day before the programme started. We met with Paul and the team for breakfast and from that moment, it has been one of our best (if not the best) travel experience (and we travel a lot as a family).
Paul gave us the final briefing and introduced us to Collins (from the Maasai tribe) who was going to be our guide. From that moment, it has been an unforgettable experience.
We left Nairobi to Lake Naivasha, further on to Lake Nakuru to end our short trip in Maasai Mara. We followed the programme agreed with Paul, with the flexibility that Collins provided. Collins has been instrumental in making this trip from great to amazing, with his knowledge of the country and the local culture, his positive and friendly attitude, his ability to connect with our kids (8 and 4 years old) and entertain them and of course his ability to answer the millions of questions we had about the country, the people, the wildlife and the culture.
In this short trip, we managed to see the Big Five and the Ugly Five, a bit of luck of course but also thanks to Collins expertise and knowledge (finding the leopard hidden in a hole in a high grass area was a unique achievement!!!)
It would take many pages to describe how amazing this trip was. The summary is probably that, as world travellers, we have gone through a lot (good and bad!) and this trip with Ways of Africa Travel is definitely one of the best!!!
So we can highly recommend Paul and the team for your next travel - you will not be disappointed!
