Well organised, affordable and saw so many animals!
My girlfriend and I completed a 5 day Serengeti safari with Roko. We picked this company due to its cheap pricing, flexible itinerary, private tour and good locations. We enjoyed the use of guesthouses and we well accommodated with lots of food and a chef throughout our trip. They were very accommodating if there were any issues and the organisation of the whole trip was exceptional with clear communication from Miranda. We were picked up from the airport and taken straight to safari where we saw lots and lots of animals. We had a driver along with Roko our guide which allowed him to spot countless animals. We saw everything we wanted to and more and was full of big day safaris. Our only thing that could be improved was some clearer information about the plan for the day, where we were driving and more information about the animals but being a traditional Masi Mara man Roko gave us good insight about his background as well. Throughly recommend this to anyone who wishes to travel Tanzania privately as we always felt cared for and looked after!!!

comfortable amazing experience
What animals you can see depends on the season and luck.
But the driver will take us to find the animals we want to see.
The food served is delicious and the schedule is kept perfectly on schedule.

A perfect experience from planning to the end - highly recommended to plan your trip to Kenya!
We have decided quite late to visit Kenya during the festive period and we have contacted Ways of Africa Travel to help us. We did not regret it!
Paul was super efficient to provide us with an itinerary based on our initial request. After a few adjustments (e.g. we requested a specific lodge in Maasai Mara based on reviews we had read), we received the itinerary that we wanted and we confirmed it.
We got all the information we needed to get ready for the trip and we were in regular communication with Paul over WhatsApp for any questions.
We arrived in Nairobi the day before the programme started. We met with Paul and the team for breakfast and from that moment, it has been one of our best (if not the best) travel experience (and we travel a lot as a family).
Paul gave us the final briefing and introduced us to Collins (from the Maasai tribe) who was going to be our guide. From that moment, it has been an unforgettable experience.
We left Nairobi to Lake Naivasha, further... Read more on to Lake Nakuru to end our short trip in Maasai Mara. We followed the programme agreed with Paul, with the flexibility that Collins provided. Collins has been instrumental in making this trip from great to amazing, with his knowledge of the country and the local culture, his positive and friendly attitude, his ability to connect with our kids (8 and 4 years old) and entertain them and of course his ability to answer the millions of questions we had about the country, the people, the wildlife and the culture.
In this short trip, we managed to see the Big Five and the Ugly Five, a bit of luck of course but also thanks to Collins expertise and knowledge (finding the leopard hidden in a hole in a high grass area was a unique achievement!!!)
It would take many pages to describe how amazing this trip was. The summary is probably that, as world travellers, we have gone through a lot (good and bad!) and this trip with Ways of Africa Travel is definitely one of the best!!!
So we can highly recommend Paul and the team for your next travel - you will not be disappointed!

Maijo delivers seamless, personalized safaris with expert guides for an unforgettable Tanzania exper
Our safari experience with Maijo in Tanzania was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and the trip exceeded all our expectations. This was my second safari in Africa, and I can confidently say that it was far superior to my first—it was truly a journey of a lifetime.
One of the highlights of our adventure was our guide, Frank. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, landscapes, and culture but also had an infectious passion for the region that made every moment feel special. Frank’s sharp eye for spotting animals, his engaging storytelling, and his warm personality added so much to our experience. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
Our journey began in Tarangire National Park, where we were captivated by its stunning baobab trees and the large herds of elephants for which it is famous. Frank ensured we saw plenty of wildlife, including giraffes, zebras, and even some lions, while sharing fascinating... Read more insights about the park’s ecosystem.
Next, we ventured into the iconic Serengeti National Park, and it truly lived up to its reputation. From witnessing the great migration to observing lions and leopards, every moment was magical. Frank’s ability to navigate the vast plains and find hidden gems added so much to the experience. Although we didn’t spot any cheetahs, the Serengeti’s sheer beauty and incredible wildlife made it unforgettable.
Finally, we explored the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a place that felt like stepping into a natural wonderland. The dense concentration of animals in such a picturesque setting was astounding. Frank helped us spot the “Big Five” and gave us a deeper understanding of the crater’s history and significance. It was the perfect conclusion to an amazing safari.
The entire journey was seamless, and we felt well taken care of every step of the way. Maijo’s attention to detail, coupled with Frank’s expertise, made this experience truly unforgettable. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, we wholeheartedly recommend Maijo and hope you’re lucky enough to have Frank as your guide. You won’t regret it!

Andre and his team were stellar and made the whole experience amazing and unforgettable!
If you want a truly amazing experience, book with Safaris With Us. They were meticulous in their organization of every aspect of the tour (communications, itinerary) and so quick to respond to any questions I had (it seemed 24/7). The lodge was superb, all the meals were 5-star quality, all the lodge staff were unbelievably friendly. The drivers and guides were so genuine and engaging.
Thank you!

Ways of Africa are exceptional and connected safari guide experts who will create a dream experience
Amazing experience with Ways of Africa from start to finish! I had been planning my family trip for about 8-6 months in advance. Paul and Janet were fantastic communicators who always responded promptly, made adjustments to our dates as needed, and created the most amazing itinerary for our 4-nights/5-day tour.
We were lucky enough to have two guides at different parts of our trip - Colin and James were knowledgeable, informative, friendly, and well-versed as exceptional Safari guides.
Our trip started at the beautiful Lake Nakuru Lodge, then we headed to Masai Mara and stayed at the most luxurious game camp - Sarova Mara - just wow!! And ended our trip at Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort.
We were blessed to see four of the Big Five, really just an excuse now to go back and do a longer trip!
We can’t thank Paul, Janet and the rest of the Ways of Africa team enough for providing me and my family an experience of a lifetime. We are forever grateful for their hard work, attention to detail, and true Kenyan hospitality! A big big asante sana from the Saha-Jarvis family.

Moroka goes towards our wishes
Our main goal of the trip was to visit the mountain gorillas, and we did it in Mgahinga Park, which was chosen by the tour operator. It was an amazing experience! Everything else was also incredibly exciting, convenient and inexpensive.
Very grateful to our driver Wilson
I am happy to recommend Moroka Expedition if you want to see a lot of things and for an affordable price, which will be formed for you by a wonderful manager based on your requests.
