Everything we had hoped for in a Kenya photography safari
Paul (Ways of Africa) put together the exact itinerary that our group was looking for at a very reasonable price. I appreciated his ability to account for our goals and come up with a plan that met them.
Between the initial booking and the actual trip there wasn't much communication and I would have appreciated a little more proactivity. That said, everything was arranged and taken care of, so not much communication was actually needed. Paul did have a zoom call with us a couple of weeks before our arrival which gave us a chance to ask questions.
The trip itself was perfect. We were met at the airport, driven to our first night hotel in Nairobi, and met our guide the next morning. We had requested experienced guides for tracking wildlife and creating opportunities for great photos, and Ways of Africa delivered. We ended up with Surat for the first part of our trip and Frank for the rest. Both did a great job of anticipating the actions of the wildlife and putting us in great positions.
Our lodging/food exceeded my expectations - especially for the price we paid during high season. I would comfortably book with Ways of Africa again in the future.

Efficient and friendly Staff. Highly recommended
We were a group of 4 photographers and we had high expectations regarding the driver that would be provided.
We were out before sunrise and did not return to our lodge until sunset time as we needed to maximize the opportunities to get good photographs.
Ways of Africa made all this possible. Our driver was very knowledgeable, would anticipate the action properly and as a result we got good photos.
We took breakfast and lunch with us, they were provided in boxes and there was always enough to go through the day. Although food was never much of a concern to us.
The lodges were very comfortable and the food was good.
Overall, we had a great experience and I recommend Ways of Africa to anyone looking for a photo safari.
Unforgettable Safari with the Best Guide, Paul
We had an amazing safari experience, and a huge part of it was thanks to our guide, Paul! He was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about the wildlife.
Paul was excellent at spotting animals and always made an effort to find the best viewing opportunities for us. Throughout the trip, he shared interesting information about the animals, their behavior, and the local environment, which made the safari much more meaningful and enjoyable.
He was also very friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with. We always felt comfortable and well taken care of. We saw so many incredible animals and created memories that we will never forget.
Thank you, Paul, for making our Kenya safari such a wonderful experience. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!
Great experience
Paul is an excellent guider and fantastic driver He is very smart and good at planning. He has a pair of eyes like Africa fishing eagle He is very skillful at safari game drive. Whenever it needs fast, he drives like a leopard, when it needs slower with a big bump and he is like an elephant, doing it very steady. He is very friendly with a sense of humor and a little bit a sense of mystery. We are very happy with Paul s work and personality.

Unforgettable Safari with Ways of Africa
We have completed a 7‑day, 6‑night Kenya safari with Ways of Africa, and the experience was good. Their booking power is strong – we booked in June for a July departure, yet they secured every lodge we requested. It was a pleasure to communicate with Paul. He was patient and offered practical, useful advice that made planning easier. Our guide, Gabriel, though not very experienced in the field, proved dedicated and responsible, turning each game drive into an interesting and productive activity. We saw rare wildlife and some memorable scenes. The trip ran smoothly, with good logistics and daily coordination, and we all left satisfied.

Fully personalised service with superb communication
An Unforgettable Adventure with Ways of Africa.
We just returned from our Kenyan safari, and I can say without hesitation that choosing Ways of Africa was the best decision we made for this trip. From the initial planning stages to the final drop-off at the airport, the experience was seamless, professional, and deeply personal.
While the wildlife sightings were obviously breathtaking, what truly set this team apart was their exceptional communication and flexibility.
Why Ways of Africa Stands Out
* **Proactive Communication:** Before we even left home, the team at Ways of Africa was incredibly responsive. They answered every "what if" and "how to" question with patience and detail, ensuring we felt fully prepared for the bush.
* **Ultimate Flexibility:** Travel rarely goes exactly to plan, but they handled every pivot with grace. Whether we wanted to spend an extra hour watching a pride of lions or needed to shift our morning departure time to catch up on sleep, our guide and the coordination team made it happen without a second thought.
* **Expertly Tailored Experience:** They didn't just stick to a rigid schedule. They listened to our preferences in real-time, adjusting the pace of the day to make sure we were getting the most out of every moment.
The Verdict
If you are looking for an operator that treats your trip like a **bespoke journey** rather than a cookie-cutter tour, look no further than Ways of Africa.
Their ability to adapt on the fly while keeping us informed and comfortable made this a stress-free, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
**Highly recommended for anyone who values top-tier service and a truly personalised touch!**

Paul Kimani Ndichu best ever Guide
Paul Kimani Ndichu took us to places where others may not go, very reliable ways of Africa. We saw live lionesses hunt, rare Leopard, cheetah, elephants, giraffes zebra's and had a lake Naivasha boat ride to see Hippos. Paul told and explained things very politely and in details about animals and their habits.

Experience of a lifetime
Our Masai Mara safari with Ways of Africa Travel was truly unforgettable! We traveled with our 4-year-old, and from the very beginning everything was perfectly planned to suit our family’s needs.
A special mention to our guide Paul, who was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and warm—our child became very attached to him, which made the whole experience even more special for us as parents. Paul went above and beyond during the game drives, putting in so much effort to ensure we spotted all of the Big 5, which we successfully did!
The safari felt very personalized, not rushed, and thoughtfully curated. The accommodations booked for us were excellent, comfortable, and well located, and the hot air balloon experience was a once-in-a-lifetime highlight that we will never forget.
We felt safe, well taken care of, and genuinely cared for throughout the trip. We highly recommend Ways of Africa Travel and guide Paul to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience in Kenya—especially families traveling with young children. We would absolutely choose them again!

Incredible from start to finish - HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Booking trips like this can sometimes be a bit daunting, but I promise you this - Ways of Africa will exceed all of your expectations.
From the very start of the process the team were super helpful and organised, and this continued in the field. The trip itself was planned meticulously to fit around our needs and delivered exactly what we asked for (and more).
The game drives were fantastic (hugely helped by our exceptional guide and driver), and there really is no more magical place to see wildlife.
The accomodation was INCREDIBLE - who knew you could experience such luxury in the middle of the bush! Not only was the quality great, but both places we stayed were eco-lodges, which was really special.
If you're in two minds to book this take this review as your sign to DO IT. And do it with Ways of Africa, you won't regret it.
