Great budget safari trip to Tanzania and Kenya
We did the 10 days Tanzania and Kenya tour. We started in Arusha, from where we went to Serengeti and Ngorongoro for 2 nights. After that, we went back to Arusha, where we slept for 1 night, and then we started our trip to Kenya, where we visited Nairobi, Lake Nakuru NP, Maasai Mara NP and Amboseli NP. At the end, we went back to Arusha, where we finished our safari trip.
The itinerary was perfect as we were able to visit all major sites in Kenya and Tanzania, but we had many hours on the road and that can be tiring for some people (for exemple, from Maasai Mara to Amboseli you will have to travel 11 hours by road!).
Overall, everything was good. We were on a budget, so campsites and camps where simple, but had everything we needed (Kenyan camps are much better that the ones in Tanzania).
Communication with Edward was nice and he helped us a lot before and during our trip with everything we needed. Thank you so much for all the help, Edward!

Everything Dannsland provided were good.
I had a Safari and a Mt Kenya hiking organized by Dannsland, everything went well. What I like most was the quick response when they answered your questions. All my bookings were done by massaging in WhatsApp which was handy.

6days best of safari kenya
The Safari was excellent and I loved getting close-up views of the animals. It was great that they could work together to find all kinds of hidden animals to go see. The other parts were just ok (the food, other services, etc) and the village visit was interesting Our driver Anthony was great, professional, helpful, and fun to talk to. thank you, Edward and Dennssland trekk tours.

The trek itself was amazing but we had some troubles in the office
Our trek was brilliant. We went up the Sirimon route and got photos of us crossing from the southern the northern hemisphere. It was so scenic and our guides were so lovely. We were really looked after with delicious food and hot drinks and even popcorn and biscuits at snack time! We took an acclimatisation day, so it became a 5 day trek. I'd really recommend this as I was huffing and puffing on the acclimatisation day where we did a small walk up the mountain and back down to the same camp as the night before, but the next day on summiting I felt fine. On summit day we walked up by headtorch and the stars were like nothing I had seen before. We reached the summit for sunrise and it was one of the best experiences of my life. We came down Chogoria and that was stunning too. I felt very looked after throughout the whole trek.
Sadly our office experience was not so good. The company said they used a higher exchange rate than the national rate without explaining why. They also struggled to evidence this. They also didn't accept dollars in cash if the notes were from before 2007. Apparently this is a Kenyan-wide thing but I did feel these issues with paying should've been outlined before as we ended up paying a fair amount more than we were expecting.

Posted on Jul 6, 2022thank you Zoe for your positive response it was fine having you around with positive energy thank you for trusting in us
Good trek but ensure to be explicit with what is included
The trek itself was excellent. There were 3 of us supported by a guide, a porter each and cooks. The team were friendly and took care of us very well. We enjoyed going up Sirimon and down Chogoria. Chogoria is the more scenic of the two routes and enjoying this on the descent is recommendable. There was ample food and hot drinks at regular intervals.
Dennsland trek tours were responsive during the planning stage. There were a couple of issues around what was included just before the trek but these were resolved. Do check the approximate exchange rate from USD to Kenyan shillings in advance as this was higher than the bank exchange rate and hence a bit higher cost than expected.

Great for solo budget backpackers
I did the 4 day safari february 9-12 although the stated itinerary changed right from the beginning I still got to do everything in the itinerary, I was passed around a bit with other safaris but they were all great. As my guides I got Bonifas and Patrick which were just great. I saw everything: Leopards, Cheetahs, Elephants, Lions, Rinos white and black, Giraffes, Hippos, Hyenas, Zeebras, Savanah Cat, and a ton of different antelopes and birds. They get you right up close to the animals too, everything and more that I wanted to see. The weather if February was good, it rained a bit but only at night and was bright and sunny for all the game drives and the savanna was a nice green.
The food and accommodation was ok to good, better than I was expecting for the budget I was on.
They even dropped me off at Lake Naivasha instead of Nairobi so that I could do Hells Gate on my own, if you do this you can camp on the lake at one of the camps, I camped at Fisherman's Camp, from there it's about 5k to the entrance of Hells Gate.
One of the changes they did was that instead of starting in the Masai Mara I first did Lake Nakuru and if you can manage it this way it's great because it builds up to the Mara which is by far the best part of the safari
