A Trip of a Lifetime with Ways of Africa!
From start to finish, our safari experience with Ways of Africa was absolutely unforgettable. Paul and Janet, the kind, humble, and incredibly hardworking founders, went above and beyond to make sure every detail of our trip was perfect. They took the time to understand our preferences and designed an itinerary that felt truly personal — from the lodge selection to daily activities.
Before we even set off, they personally came to meet us in Nairobi, such a thoughtful and genuine gesture that set the tone for the rest of the trip. It was wonderful to meet them in person, hear about their entrepreneurial journey, and feel their passion for creating authentic experiences. They even helped arrange a hot air balloon ride for us something we’ll never forget!
Once on safari, our guide Paul (a different Paul!) was nothing short of exceptional. Always punctual, calm, and deeply knowledgeable, he made every game drive both exciting and educational. His understanding of the terrain and wildlife meant we saw some extraordinary sights, from lions mating and cheetahs hunting (albeit unsuccessfully :) ) to a leopard lounging in a tree with its prey carefully stored for later. There were zebras as far as the eye could see, elephants having playful dramas, and countless magical moments that felt straight out of a nature documentary.
What we appreciated most was how flexible and attentive Paul was whether we wanted to stop for a quick coffee, browse local curios, or spend a bit longer at a sighting or the Lodge, he made it all feel effortless. Every day brought something new and unforgettable, and we always felt safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
We came away not just with incredible memories, but with deep gratitude for the people behind this experience. Thank you, Paul, Janet, Paul and the entire Ways of Africa team, for crafting a truly once-in-a-lifetime safari.
Highly, highly recommend to anyone dreaming of a Kenyan adventure — you will be in the best hands!

Amazing gorilla experience in Uganda
Moroka expeditions, and in particular our guide Collins, was STELLAR! If you can, request Collins. He was very courteous, helpful, reliable, and professional the entire time. A pleasure to be around for the entire duration.
Regarding the trekking, it was PHENOMENAL, BREATHTAKING, and MIND-BLOWING! We had the chance to spend an hour watching a family of mountain gorillas UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL!!! We could hear them through the bushes as we walked up.
Also, we got to stay at some BEAUTIFUL resorts with EXQUISITE views, food, and service. The restaurants we ate along the journey were local and good as well. Collins (our guide) was gracious enough to give us several “lessons” about Uganda, food, vegetation, etc. as we traveled by car to the various destinations. He made the trip fun, informative, and interesting.
Would definitely do this experience again and would most certainly recommend others to experience this. 8 thumbs up!

A Fascinating Safari Adventure with Wonderful Wildlife and Service
Ken, our guide, taught us a wealth of knowledge about animals. He could accurately and quickly locate all kinds of animals we wanted to see in the park. He is a fantastic guide, humorous, careful, and patient. He is not only a good employee but also a good father, and we are proud of him. Although we spent less than 10 days together, he took care of us like family. This trip was truly worthwhile and made me very happy. I took many beautiful photos and saw many animals I had never seen before, all thanks to Ken. If you come to the Safari, I highly recommend choosing Ken as your guide. He will definitely make your Safari trip a complete and smooth success!

A Stellar Safari Experience with JungleRoam and Guide Ken in Kenya
Our recent safari adventure in Kenya, organized by JungleRoam Travel Agency, exceeded every expectation, and a large part of that magic is owed to our incredible guide, Ken. From the moment we met him, Ken’s warmth and expertise set the tone for an unforgettable trip—his deep knowledge of Kenya’s wildlife and ecosystems turned every game drive into a fascinating lesson, not just a sightseeing tour. Whether he was pointing out the subtle tracks of a leopard, explaining the social dynamics of a pride of lions, or sharing insights about the local flora that sustains the savanna’s delicate balance, his passion was contagious and made even the quiet moments feel meaningful.
What truly set Ken apart, though, was his patience and dedication to ensuring we had the best experience possible. He never rushed us—if we wanted to linger to capture the perfect photo of a giraffe silhouetted against the sunset or a herd of elephants drinking at a waterhole, he happily waited, even adjusting the vehicle’s position to give us the best angle. On one occasion, we ran a bit late starting our morning safari due to unexpected delays, but Ken never cut corners; he extended our drive later in the day to make sure we didn’t miss out on any key wildlife sightings, a level of care that’s rare to find.
JungleRoam’s decision to pair us with Ken speaks volumes about their commitment to quality. Every detail of our itinerary was well-planned, but it was Ken’s skill at spotting animals (he seemed to have a sixth sense for finding even the most elusive creatures!) and his genuine desire to make our trip special that made this safari stand out. If you’re planning a trip to Kenya and want a safari that’s both informative and deeply personal, look no further than JungleRoam—and if you’re lucky enough to have Ken as your guide, you’re in for a treat. We can’t recommend them highly enough; this was easily one of the best travel experiences of our lives, and we have JungleRoam and Ken to thank for it.

Professional and with a lot of knowledge.
Three Swedes bought a trip to Nairobi National Park and were picked up at our house in good time. Everything was well organized and the driver David was very professional and knowledgeable about the animals in the park and knew the roads very well. I have now been to the park six times and this was definitely the best. The drove on roads I never been on before and we had many sightings due to good communication with other drivers in the park that day. We saw approximately 20 white rhinos 🦏 and two lions 🦁 and most of the other expected animals.

We are experiencing the perfect little escape from our busy lives through this trip.
Recently my wife and I spent 2 days at Matwruni Waterfall Coffee Tour, and honestly Elia Safaris It made our 2 days special and made every moment very enjoyable. The combination of the peaceful waterfall, the aroma of freshly roasted coffee, and the friendliness of the people made it such a special experience. The coffee tour was fantastic. The people there showed us how they grow, roast, and prepare the coffee, and you can really see how much love and effort they put into it. Elia Safaris treated us like family and made us feel completely at home.

Great customer service Leoni was amzing
After contacting several tour companies we ended up choosing Amshar first and formost because of their great customer service. Leoni was very quick to respond to all of our inquires from the start. He was able to accomadate our needs and was very proffessional. Our accomadations were great the lodges were beautiful.
Leoni helped organize our round trip flights from Zanzibar as well as our transfers.
We booked a 3 day 2 night safari.
We arrived in Arusha and were met at the airport by our guide Edward & Leoni.
From there it was all easy and fun. Edward went out of his way to make sure we saw and experianced an amazing safari. He was knowledgable and explained a lot about the local culture. We were in a pop up jeep that was very comfortable.
My husband really wanted to see lions and on our first day we were on our way out of the park and he heard over the radio that one had been spotted not too far away so he went back especially.
On our second day we went to the crater and he took a less traveled road which was great because it gave us amazing views on our way down.
We could not have been happier. He always made sure we were ok to move on and continue.
I highly recomend booking through them !

We really love nature and good coffee ☕ recommend Matwruni Waterfall.
We visited for 2 days Matwruni Waterfall and Coffee Tour last month, and it was such a peaceful experience. Migo African teams really well organized. And absolutely it was our great 2 days with Migo African Safaris. The sound of the waterfall, the smell of fresh coffee, and the friendly people made it feel like paradise.
We learned a lot about how coffee is made and enjoyed every moment. The waterfall is beautiful and the coffee tour was super interesting. We have plans to go on safari with them next year.
