Best trip ever. Way much over our expectation
5/5

We actually contacted over 10+ safari operators when we planned the trip. Ways of Africa stands out because Paul and Janet are the most patient and easy-approaching one. They are very good at organizing the program and meanwhile make sure our needs can be satisfied. During the trip, I have some personal emergency issue. Janet was able to help me solve the problem ASAP which I really appreciated. Our driver Sammy is marvelous. He’s so experienced not only in driving the car and making sure our safety, but also in spotting animals. It is because of him that we had the luck to see the great Mara crossing at the perfect timing. July-August is usually the peak season for safari. And that’s why we would easily bump into “traffic jams” in the national park. With his rich experience, we were able to avoid the traffic and saw a lot of unique scenes in Amboseli. He’s definitely a treasure to this company. Overall, I highly recommend you choose ways of africa as this is a company that will serve you from their heart.

Amazing!
5/5

I travelled with my wife and two daughters aged 14 and 11 to Nakuru (1 day) and Masai Mara (2 days) in July. From the early morning airport pick up to the end of the trip it was very smooth. Unfortunately due to the short stay we were not able to see the large flock of flamingos in Nakuru and the river crossing of the wildebeest in the Masai Mara, but we were able to see all the Big 5 and our family was very excited.
The Way of Africa tour guide was profeccional and very attentive and always in touch with their colleagues and friends to give us the best and most flexible guidance, which we sincerely appreciate.
We travelled overland by Land Cruiser for the entire trip and enjoyed the changing people and scenery of Kenya's farms and towns. The unpaved roads were limited and our daughters were a little tired, but not too stressed.
We plan to stay longer next time than we did this time as it would have been a more fulfilling trip if we had stayed a few more days.

Amazing Family Safari - Magical Memories to Last a Lifetime!
5/5

I highly recommend Ways of Africa Travel for your dream African safari! Paul, Janet, and team will take exceptional care of you providing personalized service from the day you inquire about planning a trip until you are safely back at the airport to return home. My family of four, including two teenagers, had an incredible safari experience. Paul went above and beyond, going to the safari camp office in Nairobi twice, to secure a reservation in tents along a hippo filled river in Maasai Mara that I had my heart set on (Mara Bush Camp) - working through corporate blocks, double bookings, and the internet going down. Our guide Dennis was the best! We felt so fortunate to have him. Paul told us he is good at finding the animals - that was an understatement! Every safari drive with Dennis was an exciting new adventure. We saw lots of lions, including discovering two cubs that the rangers didn't even know had been born yet, a cheetah family of 5, two different leopards, the great migration, and everything else we dreamed of. Dennis would plan all our safari outings to maximize our experience - we had bush breakfasts and bush lunches some days. We also really enjoyed learning from Dennis more about Kenya (history, politics, challenges), the Maasai (his tribe), and about all the animals and birds we saw. If I was planning a safari again or a friend asked for suggestions, they would be ... #1 Book with Ways of Africa! They will help you plan the best, personalized safari trip. Also - I am glad we splurged on Mara Bush camp. Everything about staying there exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed having a special camp to enjoy in between safari drives and in the evenings. Maasai Mara is incredible. We spent three nights there and could have stayed longer. We also were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed Lake Nakuru because of the density of animals and seeing white and black rhinos! I always want to squeeze everything in (and we did), but next time I would talk with Paul more about that drive time between parks and consider that in planning, especially the days before the long flights home.

Someone who takes care of minutest of your trip details
5/5

We concluded yesterday a 8 days 7 nights Amboseli-Naivasha-Nakuru-Masai Mara Safari trip. It was an experience of a lifetime, managed to perfection by Paul, Owner of Ways of Africa travels. We were a family of 4 and all of us came back with great memories. The trip was an Airport to Airport trip with full boarding and great places to stay in. Our private Car Driver cum guide , Mr Zahid is a very experienced and a friendly person. I would highly recommend Ways of Africa for your next Kenyan Safari adventure.

Paul and Joe from Ways of Africa were serviceminded, reliable and good planners of an excellent tour
5/5

My husband and I had a wonderful roundtrip in the national parks of Nakuru, Naivasha and Aberdere with Joe from Ways of Africa. Joe is an experienced driver - both in tracking down game inside the parks, avoiding the biggest holes in the roads between the parks and in keeping us informed of the elements and time plan for the tour itself. Furthermore, Joe is an excellent conversation partner who helped us understand Kenyan culture and history.
The round trip was exactly what we were looking for due to our tight schedule in Kenya. Being close to land animals in Nakuru (and we especially loved the tented camp there), experiencing wildlife from a water perspective in Naivasha (all though the resort vibe of the hotel there turned us a bit off) and last, the amazing water hole theater at the Ark in Aberdere.
Everywhere, we were met by friendly, dedicated, knowledgable and inspirering guides and a breathtaking scenary!

Sammy of Ways of Africa is an excellent driver and guide!
5/5

We had the pleasure of having Sammy as our driver and guide on a five-day safari tour to Amboseli National Park, Lake Nakuru, and Maasai Mara National Reserve. Sammy is an incredibly hardworking driver and an exceptionally knowledgeable guide. He could identify every animal and bird we encountered by name and explain their behaviors in detail. He was also very helpful with photography, taking us to the best spots for optimal backgrounds, lighting, and angles when capturing images of the wildlife. Thanks to Sammy, we had a truly wonderful experience on this safari trip.

Journey of a lifetime
5/5

Ways of Africa went above and beyond to help us plan and execute an unforgettable trip of a lifetime! We went for my mom’s 60th birthday, and from the get go they were responsive, welcoming, and helped us plan an amazing trip that exceeded expectations. Not only did we see all of the animals we set out to see, we were blown away by the beautiful scenery and luxurious accommodations. Sammy, our driver and guide, was extremely knowledgeable and helped us capture national-geographic-level photos. We can’t wait to come back again!

Absolutely amazing tour! This was genuinely a life-changingly positive experience for me!
5/5

Paul and Sammy (organizer and driver) were extremely professional and knowledgeable. Sammy was a great driver and was able to answer literally all questions we asked - even really specific ones about all sorts of mammals and birds. It's very obvious that he loves the animals as much as we did - and thats why he always has so much energy. He also is really good at getting good angles for photographs (lighting, backgrounds, etc) and seems to be better than most tour operators when it comes to positioning the vehicle for the best animal-viewing experience. Easily worth the time and money!
