A well deserved 5 stars
The help and advice we got from Charles when booking our holiday to Kenya was spot on. All of our queries before we left were dealt with quickly. Our guide, lodges and resort were amazing. We only had 15 days in Kenya and it was amazing because the itinerary covered the main parks (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli), we also went to the coastal region for 3 nights and the last two nights were in Nairobi where we had excursions( City tour, Slum visit ,giraffe center) our last night we ate at the Carnivore. It was our first time in East Africa and we look forward to booking our next adventure to Tanzania with them.
Thank you sooo much once again.

Great Safari experience
We booked the 5-day safari including free overnight stay before and after in Arusha. Raymond was always very quick to answer all of my many questions. The organization in advance was perfect for us. We had the option of paying for the trip on site by credit card (3.5% fee) or online in advance by bank transfer without a fee. We opted for the second option and it worked well.
The pick-up from Arusha airport went perfectly, our driver was already waiting. At the hotel, we were given a short briefing about the days ahead and then set off on a short Arusha city tour with Raymond. He then advised us to reduce our luggage to the bare essentials in order to have more space in the jeep, which we did.
The next morning, after breakfast at the hotel, we set off and spent 5 great days on safari. The first day in Tarangire National Park followed by an overnight stay at Fanaka Lodge. On the second day we went to the Serengeti National Park and spent one night there (please note: the journey to and from the Serengeti takes a long time and you rarely see any animals, but the landscape is lovely and very varied and we weren't bored on the journey). After the Serengeti we spent a night in a tent at Simba Campsite, which was a great experience as we were visited by giraffes and zebras.
We spent the following day in the Ngorogoro Crater, our absolute highlight due to the many animals and impressive nature.
The last night we went back to Fanaka Lodge to round off the safari on the last day in Lake Manyara National Park.
Then in the evening we were taken to Kilimanjaro Airport (also included).
A big thank you goes to Moody, our guide and driver, and Dula, our own chef, who cooked three delicious meals for us every day.

Aruni, our tour operator, was incredible! He provided us with the most unforgettable experience.
This was the most incredible experience of my life. Our tour operator, Aruni was so kind, accommodating and helpful. He answered any questions that we had about the animals and African culture. We saw every animal that we had hoped to. This is thanks to Aruni for making sure that we had full days to experience the Masai Mara and the other trips that we planned as part of our Safari. The accomodation was perfect in all locations. We stayed very close to the attractions that we visited which made them very easily accessible. Booking the tour was very quick and easy. We provided the details of what we expected to get out of the safari and it was all organised and booked for us. The price was amazing! It included our food, transport and access to all the parks. I will never be able to thank our tour operator Aruni enough for making it the most special, unforgettable experience of my life!

A once in a lifetime adventure!
Msangai was a wonderful safari tour operator! They helped customize an itinerary to fit the places and timeframe we wanted. We were able to visit Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro Crater! Our safari guides Silasi and Godi were wonderful and full of knowledge. They were so friendly and were really able to help us see allthe animals and sights we wanted to.
The camps we stayed at were lovely and always had hot, piping meals that tasted a lot like delicious homecooking. During car travels I was worried about the long times in between and if there would be bathroom breaks, but they arranged to have pre-planned stops in between with washroom breaks! The sights were breathtaking, and seeing the animals in their natural habitats an indescribably magical experience.
The team always went above and beyond to make sure our needs were taken care of! We forgot our binoculars in another vehicle at some point after a vehicle transfer between Kenya and Tanzania. Silasi was so helpful in arranging for us to still be able to receive the binoculars by having his team members pass it along before we departed.
Communication with the safari team was also excellent, they were always very responsive.

Excellent tours with D & G Photographic.
Our experience with D&G Photographic Safari has been excellent since we get in touch with them till the end when they drop us at the airport. Starting with Dany who has been very kind solving all our requests and designing our Safari. Also, our guide Adam was amazing. He showed us the big five! That was our dream so we can say they help us to get it come true.
Adam was our guide who help us to understand all the information about a perfect safari, we felt safe all the time in the car with him. We recommend to travel with them. All the accomodations they booked for us were amazing. Experience was brilliant and we want to say a huge thank you to D&G Photographic Safari for arranging an unforgettable holiday for our family. We’ll be recommending you to everyone.
Now let’s talk about our first accomodation: best view, excellent food, nice pool and best coffee ever. Highly recommended – Baghayo Garden Suites.
The second accomodation was in the middle of Serengeti - A "tented" camp with semi-fixed structures in the middle of the Savannah! Serengeti Heritage Luxury Champ. The staff is very welcoming and will take care of you in any way possible. Kind advice – don’t leave food in the tent, you will be visited by small Jerry’s .
The third accomodation was at Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge - From the moment we arrived, the warm and attentive team made us feel right at home, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. The lodge’s serene setting at the foot of Mount Meru offers a peaceful escape, with beautifully appointed rooms surrounded by lush gardens.
So, take our advice and make a perfect vacation with D&G Photographic Safari. You won’t regret it. Peace and love️.

Our best tour in thirty years of travel!
Communication with Mardi was excellent, she listened and heard us. When we had questions they were answered.
The value we received was beyond our expectations. All stays, tours, and safaris were spectacular. We were picked up and transported conveniently and comfortably with friendly and welcoming drivers.
Baleluni private reserve was able to feed us well, take us to see wildlife in their neck of the woods and to Kruger National park and the endangered species rehab center, and to provide lodging where we could see an elephant herd walk right by our balcony along the Oliphant river. Tsowa safari lodge is a five star experience with fabulous food, great tents and indoor and outdoor showers. We walked the island; boated the Zambezi twice seeing Hippos, crocodiles, and elephant; and went on game safaris that allowed us to see big game, including an 400+ herd of water buffalo, and birds galore. Cape Town, the peninsula, Table mountain, Stellenbosch, and Kirstenbosch gardens are not to be missed.

Lion King pays attention to its customers and makes sure they have a great time all along.
We had a wonderful, stress-free trip. Lion King responded within a day to our first inquiry about a custom trip to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Their proposal fully complied with our requests, and the price was competitive. We got all the useful information before arrival. Our guide, Leonard, was very kind and attentive, and he managed to take us to beautiful places that were not too crowded. The accommodation places and the food were really good. Special note for the Manyara Safari Lodge: a beautiful off the grid place in the middle of the countryside with a stunning view over the lake.
