All organized well. Also they take care of all of our group.
Everything was organized very well. A really reliable company even when organizing a trip before arrival online. Interesting experience and great impressions during the trip. Recommended for tksi transportation to and from the airport in Zanzibar, punctual and inexpensive. Thanks from the whole company

Exceptional service & an unforgettable experience!
Our trip to Tanzania was perfectly curated by Wendy and her team at Ker & Downey, with top notch service and exceptional care on this unforgettable journey. Not only were the accommodations magical and bespoke, but our tour guides at every location gave us amazing glimpses into the terrain and animal activities during the safari. We can’t say enough good things about the animals we saw at arms length, but more than that, when one of our party had a serious health issue that required medical attention throughout the entire 8 day journey, Wendy was there to amend our schedules, ensure that medical attention was given and helped arranged a Medevac air flight for our friend. She went through tremendous inconvenience ( this was during the Chinese New Year holiday when she should have spent it with family undisturbed) to give us attention even at odd hours of the night. For this, we are extremely grateful and in awe of how she went above and beyond to keep us safe. We really have to say that a tour operator that keeps you safe in Africa and is accessible and available when unforeseen things happen, is truly the kind of company you want to write a glowing review for. And if we could give Wendy 10 stars instead of 5, we would! Thank you Wendy and team!

GREAT DAY!
We had a great day with our guide Eric. His French is perfect! We went on a safari in Akagera Park from Kigali. We saw a lot of animals. Our children were happy. It was a wonderful day.

Got the job done
Accommodation was stunning! Tour guide always arrived on time and flexible when we were running slightly late haha. Car was comfortable and was no stress when we camp back from hikes muddy. Was able to stop along the way for toilet breaks or when we needed a cold coke. Had a great time exploring Uganda and seeing the incredible wildlife!

DAS: Professional, personal service for an unforgettable journey through Namibia
Our family of five—two adults, two teens, and a seven-year-old—recently experienced what can only be described as the best holiday ever, thanks to DAS. Carien truly understood our vision and translated our wishes into a week-long program that was as diverse as it was enriching. The itinerary perfectly balanced engaging activities with ample downtime, allowing us to relax and soak in the breathtaking surroundings of Namibia.
The accommodations were a delightful blend of luxury and adventure. Every lodge and hotel we visited was chosen with care, ensuring that our stay was comfortable yet exciting. The food was great and the beds were incredibly comfortable—every detail was thoughtfully arranged to enhance our experience.
What truly set this tour apart was the seamless service. It felt as though Carien was personally overseeing every aspect of our journey. Every hotel was pre-informed of our arrival, and nothing was ever left to chance. We never had to wait on anything; everything was ready when we needed it, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience.
Another highlight of the trip was the fact that it was a Fly Safari! We flew from Windhoek to Sossusvlei, then on to Swakopmund, and finally to Etosha in a Cessna 210. We stayed two nights in every location. The flights itself were an unforgettable adventure, led by a super friendly and skilled pilot who made the entire experience both safe and exhilarating.
Overall, DAS provided an impeccably organized trip that exceeded our expectations in every way. We are immensely grateful to Carien and the DAS team for crafting such a memorable journey. If you're looking for a tour operator that combines thoughtful planning, excellent service, and unique experiences, look no further than DAS.

Excellent safari experience with an honest tour operator
We booked a one-day Nairobi National Park safari + Giraffe Centre experience with Teddy. All of us had an absolute blast. With anything related to wildlife, there's always luck involved and we understand there are no guarantees. However we got super lucky and saw all sorts really up close, from rhinos to giraffes and lions. Teddy is such a professional and knowledgeable tour operator/guide, and for the 7 of us we got a great deal. I also want to mention how honest Teddy is - he tried his best to help us save money where possible and was upfront with a lot of things that could come across as "hidden fees" or total rip-offs. Teddy and his team also respond extremely quickly, whether via email or WhatsApp. I cannot recommend him and his operation enough. 10/10 - thank you for making our trip such a memorable one.

Karis gave me an exciting safari with great organisation and a reliable tour guide!
I recently took part in a 2-day safari tour with Karis and overall, it was an incredible experience! The communication before and during the safari was excellent. I received all the necessary details ahead of time and was kept well-informed throughout the process. The team was quick to respond to any questions, making me feel that they truly cared about my experience. It was easy to get in touch, and they made sure I knew exactly what to expect.
The service was top-notch. From the moment I was picked up, I felt well taken care of. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about wildlife and the environment. They were always ready to answer any questions, and their insights made the experience even more enjoyable. The vehicle was comfortable, and the staff ensured we had everything we needed during the trip.
As for the safari itself, it was breathtaking. We visited Ngorongoro and
Tarangire National Park and saw a diverse array of animals, including elephants, lions, giraffes and many more. The guides did an excellent job of spotting wildlife and sharing interesting facts. The whole experience felt immersive, and the views were simply unforgettable. We also had plenty of time to enjoy each stop, taking in the surroundings and capturing amazing photos.
Overall, I highly recommend this safari tour with Karis. It was an unforgettable adventure with exceptional service, great communication, and excellent value for money. If you're looking for a reliable and enriching safari experience, this tour is definitely worth it!
Great safari experience
I must say I was skeptical - amazing rates, immediate responses, easily adapting to our changing plans... What was the catch? Well there wasn't any! Peter, Dennis and our tour guide Moses were all amazing from the get go. They reorganized a cab to drop us off to our friends as our flight got delayed by a day on arrival. Moses got us to the best sights and we were lucky to see all of the big cats. The only thing I'd change is the itinerary as I felt we were on the road between the parks for a lot of the time. If you have only 6 days, I'd recommend you do 2 parks so you don't get as exhausted on the bumpy roads. Also its worth an upgrade to a land cruiser as it is a more comfortable drive. The sopa lodges were good (Naivasha and Nakuru being really good). Thank you Laxatrails for giving us a memorable holiday. 100% will recommend you to friends!
