Dana made all of our safari dreams come true! Completely outstanding experience from start to finish
From the first inquiry email to get information and a quote to meeting us at the airport before our departure flight back home, it was an absolute pleasure working with Dana East Africa Safaris. Email communication during the planning stages was quick and easy, our two week itinerary was expertly put together based on our needs/wants and tailored exactly to meet those needs, and helpful tips for packing and preparing for our safari (entry visas, vaccines) were readily provided. I'm sure it can be very overwhelming planning for a safari, but Daniel made it smooth and completely stress-free.
Upon arriving in Nairobi, we were greeted in person by Daniel and our guide, Henry and made to feel right at home. During the Kenyan portion of our safari, Henry not only shared his knowledge about the landscapes and animals we were seeing, he worked extremely hard to make sure we were comfortable and safe. He was extremely personable and very easy to get along with. In Tanzania, our guide Aron worked to that same level of professionalism and expertise. I feel that we left these countries with two new friends. We will be forever grateful to both Henry and Aron for making our safari dreams come true! Daniel called us to check in during the safari to make sure that we were happy with how our trip was unfolding and even met us at the airport in Nairobi prior to our departing flight. These personal touches added so much to our experience. We felt so cared for during the entire duration of our trip.
I would recommend Dana East Africa Safaris, without reservation, to anyone planning a Kenyan/Tanzanian safari. Our trip was truly a dream come to reality.

Makes your Safari dreams reality!
Dana East Africa Safaris have, once again, made our holiday dreams come true. This was the second trip Daniel and his team have planned for my husband and I, and we could not imagine trusting anyone else with our African safari holiday planning. From the initial planning stages to a farewell message at the end of our trip, Daniel ensures that every detail is taken care of. They create a holiday plan and itinerary that ensures all our needs and list of “must-dos” are met. Dana East Africa Safaris turn dreams into reality. Thank you for creating a magical experience for us once again!

Excellent Trip. Excellent Company.
I have been on many safaris in the past 30+ years in eight different countries in Africa. Dana Tours rates at the top. They arranged spot on accommodations at memory making spots. They provided guides that were professional, careful, knowledgeable and intuitive. It is very important for safari guides to not only know where the animals are but also know where the animals are going and situate the vehicle for the best overall viewing and photographic experience. Our guide from this company did this. Besides all of this, the owner, Daniel, was very helpful and always quick to answer any question we had while planning the trip.

The trip of a lifetime with Dana East Africa Safaris!
I just spent an incredible 6 days in Tanzania, visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti with Dana East Africa Safaris. The trip went smoothly from start to finish, and I appreciate the personal help Daniel gave me from the get go. I’m usually a planner, and it was new for me to sit back and trust someone else to plan the perfect trip. But I gave him budget constraints, and ideas of things I wanted to see, and Daniel worked his magic wand to make it all happen! He also handpicked the PERFECT guide for me - as a solo traveller, I am so appreciative of the wonderfully calm, professional demeanor of my guide Julius, and his long term knowledge/experience of Tanzania and the animals. (He was simply the best!) I don’t usually like to use booking agencies, but I will 100% use Dana East Africa Safaris whenever I am in this part of the world, and wouldn’t trust anyone else. Thank you Daniel!

An unforgettable experience!
The entire trip was splendid! It was organised perfectly and our tour guide was extremely punctual. Besides the disadvantage of rains during the monsoon season, we had excellent sightings all throughout the trip thanks to our wonderful guide who had an unbelievably sharp eye!

The trip exceeded our imaginations. No hiccups and we were taken care of from start to finish
Coordinating the Safari was both quick and efficient. Daniel responded to almost all e-mails within an hour (time change permitting) and communicated very effectively. He gave us reasonable suggestions for things we may want to include or leave out of our trip to make the most of our time. Upon arrival we were picked up at the airport by our guide Stephen in a clean and well maintained vehicle. His communication was excellent and he made sure we were well taken care of. He even went out of the way to help us get a Tanzanian sim card on one of the mornings. He was an excellent, safe, and responsible driver and could spot animals I wouldn't have seen in a million years. He waited with us at the airport in Serengeti until our flight left before leaving. Growing up in South Africa I have been on 50+ safaris and this was one of the best I'd ever been on. The accommodations were great and it simply exceeded expectations from start to finish.

A really well organized trip, end to end!
Our international flights were booked, we were met at every airport and shuttled to our hotels so completely stress free and safe.
We had an amazing safari adventure in the Masai Mara at Little Elewana camp on the Sand Rive where the service was top notch and the guiding was excellent, saw all of the big five!
Went on to Rwanda for four days stay in an amazing lodge and did two days of gorilla trekking all arranged through Dana East African Safari by Daniel and it was seamless and an amazing adventure.

Amazing Experience
My fried and I booked 10 days in Kenya for Safaris and beach time. Both Daniel and Gideon were really great. Gideon was an amazing safari guide, we had so much fun together and really got a long well. I highly recommend Gideon. He also managed to arrange special Kenyan meals for us in the hotels.
We did have a slight problem in one of the hotel but Daniel was very professional and managed to fix the situation straight away and even went out of his way to get us a refund.
Dana East Africa is an amazing choice, they planned the perfect trip with the best hotels and safaris
