You get, what they promise!
Our roundtrip in July 23 took 3 weeks. We were 3 photography-loving ladies in a big Jeep. This was very comfortable, because of our extensive camera equipment.
The trip was unbelievable and well organized by Isolde, Jonas and their team. You can feel the love and connection to this wonderful country. Smaller problems, that arise on every trip, were resolved competently, easily and quickly.
Their special knowledge made this trip more special in some places. We were traveling opposite the larger tour groups and had better opportunities for animal observation and photography.
Our driver Vicent, who looks a little bit like Cuba Gooding Jr., drove us save and well and had a lot patient when the photo looks a little longer.

Dream Voyage safari
I booked a 4 Days safari Masai mara in December 2023 for the Christmas holiday, Everything was well organized Ken was our driver for the 4 Days, we missed our first Day game drive because of the heavy traffic jam at the escarpment, we had 2 full Day game drives and 1 last morning game drives on Day 4 to compensate Day 1, we also had the chance to visit a Masai village at Masai mara to learn about the Masai culture before returning to Nairobi arriving in the Evening,
It was an amazing safari experience we loved our guide and highly recommend him, The car also had canvas windows for easy photography and game viewing this was a plus for us,
Highly recommend Dream voyage safaris for Safaris to Masai mara and other destinations in Kenya.

Amazing safari experience
We did the Amboseli NP safari 3D2N. Total price for 2 adults + 1 child (3 yo) was 540 USD inclusive of transportation, accomodations, food, park tickets. The communication during booking process was amazing (300 USD downpayment via Pesapal). On the other hand, the pick up was a little bit messy (it was supposed to be around noon but ended being closer to 1pm). From the hotel we were taken to a tour operator office on Wabera St. where we paid the rest of the trip. After that we were taken by car to Shell gas station south of Nairobi where the safari van with our guide, Maxwell, and the rest of travellers were waiting for us. We started the journey to Nyati safari camp, arriving there right after sunset. We were greeted by the camp staff, assigned rooms and given buffet dinner. (I would like to say the camp is very good, staff is friendly, rooms are comfty and buffet breakfast and dinner are very good).
The day after, early morning (6am) we did the morning walk (10 USD pp, worth it), came back to the camp, had breakfast and started the full day safari around 8am, returning to the camp around 5pm.
The last morning we departed around 6am for a half day safari and we were dropped off back in Nairobi around 4pm.
I would like to thank everything and specially our guide MAXWELL who is just amazing, very knowledgeable and honest. Looking forward to coming back to Kenya and doing Masai Mara with him!

Unbeatable overall experience
This 14-day trip was my fifth safari with Dusty Roads, with Geoff as my guide for each one, and each time is better than the previous. Dusty Roads has “default” accommodations for certain locations that I enjoy, and I trust their suggestions for other locations. They can also suggest a variety of activities (which I have used on other trips) such as hot air balloons (Serengeti), night game drive (Tarangire), aerial walkway (Lake Manyara), and cultural visits (Maasai, Hadzabe, Datoga).
Geoff can spot animals with the naked eye that I have trouble seeing with binoculars, and he knows my interests so well by now that, for instance, he pointed out a sycamore fig tree growing on the trunk of an acacia (just because it is unusual), and will stop for anything from an elephant to a butterfly. The highlights included a hyena den with two very young pups; a serval cat; a hyena struggling to keeps its gazelle carcass away from two jackals and a horde of vultures; and a herd of wildebeest and zebras in eastern Serengeti that was in the tens of thousands. Also MANY lions, several leopards, half a dozen cheetahs, a big Nile monitor lizard, and the expected countless elephants and other animals large and small.
All in all, a wonderful trip. I will be going back for more.

Amazing Tour Experience!
We had an amazing experience with the Friendly Gorillas tour company. The trip was awesome and unforgettable and we were able to so many animals, meet so many amazing people, eat delicious food, and view the beauty of East Africa. Our tour guide, Noah, was exceptional, and made the trip even better with his knowledge, friendliness, and humor. I highly recommend using this company to explore this corner of the world. It was truly a magical experience.

Trusting, Genuine Organization
I am writing on behalf of myself and husband to express our deepest gratitude for the incredible trip to Rwanda and Tanzania Africa that our agency, WITO Africa Safaris organized for us. It was an experience beyond compare and we are filled with appreciation for the meticulous planning and attention to detail that went into making it such a memorable experience.
From the moment of our first contact with Abdullie to inquire about the trip until our closure telephone meeting at the end of the adventure, every aspect of this experience was handled with professionalism and care. The itinerary Abdullie crafted was perfectly tailored to our interests allowing us to explore breathtaking landscapes of Kigali so well kept and so safe for travelling. We got to experience Kigali Genocide Memorial and learn more about the atrocities 30 years ago and witness the transformation of the Rwandan people to what is now a very peaceful forgiving country. Our guide Bosco provided us valuable insights and recommendations to addressing any questions or concerns. His professionalism and dedication were truly commendable. A wonderful, warm loving human being.
The Volcanoes National Park and the amazing gorilla trekking adventure was a lifetime memory. The outstanding experience in the jungle through dense natural forests where you encounter families of endangered Mountain Gorillas was a highlight and a must to see.
Another highlight was travelling to Tanzania to the Ngorongoro Crater a UNESCO World Heritage Site where we witnessed an abundance of wildlife including the famous Big Five on our wildlife safari. We witnessed and had the privilege of witnessing Africa’s magnificent creatures in natural habitats. It was humbling and unforgettable experience especially viewing the circle of life. Our naturalist guide Michael was a wealth of knowledge and information on all aspects of our safari experience, and we were sad to say goodbye. A professional gentleman with a great deal of passion for what he does.
In sum, our journey to Africa exceeded all expectations to the exceptional service and expertise of Wito Africa Safaris. We returned home with our hearts, souls and eyes full of cherished memories and a profound appreciation for the beauty and diversity of our world.
We wholeheartedly recommend Wito Africa Safaris to all our family and friends.

Highly recommend
We had an incredible 4 day safari. Every national park we visited was unique and beautiful on its own. We saw more wildlife than I expected. The accomodations in the lodge package were far beyond our expectations offering very comfortable rooms and exceptional views on the Serengeti and the Ngorogoro crater. Be flexible and open to some shifts in the plan, just changing the order of the national parks or pickup times. You still get everything you've booked :-) Highly recommend the tour with crater explorers.
