Journey of a lifetime
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!

Sammy of Ways of Africa is an excellent driver and guide!
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.

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

Someone who takes care of minutest of your trip details
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.

Amazing Family Safari - Magical Memories to Last a Lifetime!
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.

Amazing!
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.

Best trip ever. Way much over our expectation
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.

BEST AGENCY FOR SAFARI
We had a very pleasant seven-day journey, took a lot of photos, and successfully saw the African Five Hegemons. Our contact person Paul and driver and tour guide Dennis were very conscientious. We had friends who lost his passports and identity documents on the road. Thanks to Paul's help, my friend Only then did he finally return to China. Our driver and tour guide Dennis was very patient. When I accidentally left my mobile phone in the car, he drove back to give me the mobile phone, which we are very grateful to him. The only improvement was that it took too long on the way to Masai Mara. There was a faster road, but we didn't take it, so we couldn't go to the park that day and didn't go until the next day. Generally speaking, it is a very good experience. In the future, I will recommend more friends to experience the wild beauty from the African continent.

Excellent planning throughout the trip
First of all, I need to thank Paul for rearranging the trip at the last minute due to the fact that we missed our connecting flight and lost an entire day of our Kenya tour. Paul took it upon himself to shift the entire trip by one day making sure we go through our itinerary as planned. Collins, our guide is such a friendly person and his aim was to show us what we wanted to see. Being a masai himself, he shared his culture with us throughout the trip. The safari ride, a 4x4 land cruiser, is fairly new and super comfortable for the long haul trips that we did across the amboseli, nakuru and masai mara national parks. Collins was flexible and always catered to our needs and always went the extra mile to fulfill our requests. Overall, the planning, communication, and execution were top notch and we would love to recommend Ways of Africa as your safari partner in Kenya.
