Highly Recommended
Thanks for giving us valuable opportunity to explore Kenyan game parks i.e. Massaimara, Lake nakuru & Amboseli with an amazing skilled driver. We enjoyed a lot than we expected. We were taken care very well until we finished the journey. Special thank should goes to our Driver James who put full efforts to show us unforgettable sceneries. Finally I highly recommend Adventure Africa Expedition for those who have idea to visit Kenya.

Highly worth for what we paid
We just returned back home from safari in Masaimara and Nakuru lake. It is off season now which we realized after coming Kenya. But We were able to see most of animals except leopard and Haina. James , as a tour guide looked after us to his best and explained in detailed of what we saw. His explanations was very attractive and make us satisfy though we were tired with long journey. Sentrim mara and Nakuru lake lodge where we spent 3 days added unexpected luxurious living experience in a jungle. At the end we all became satisfied with a memorable safari which comes ones or twice in life time.

Best price-quality ratio for a week in Kenya
We did a six night safari with Adventure Africa Expedition last October, and except for a couple of minor details, everything was almost perfect. Communications before the trip were the best we ever had, very, very fast answering every mail. On the way, the guide was fantastic and we had a very good time with him, and also, the price was fantastic for what we got.
Thanks !!!

Three great trips: Kili, Mt. Kenya, Mt. Elgon
While I was living in Nairobi, Dickson and Adventure Africa Expedition organised three superb hiking trips for myself and some friends: Kili (1 week), Mt. Kenya (5 days), and Mt. Elgon (4 days, Kenya side). All were well organised and Dickson was always available to provide information and meet for preparation for the upcoming hikes. In each instance transportation was provided from Nairobi, as well as tents for the hikes and food. The local guides on each mountain were friendly and knowledgeable. I would myself use Adventure Africa Expedition again, and I would recommend them to anyone living in or visiting the region.

7-Day Trek Up Kilimanjaro
I found Adventure Africa a great company to deal with, their communication and advice was first class leading up to the Trek. Dickson (Owner of the company) came with us on the transfer from Nairobi to Moshi and spent the evening with us which was re-assuring. Our guides and porters whilst on the mountain were very helpful, they spoke great English and made the trek as comfortable as possible and joined in with the banter. The food whilst on the trek surprisingly very good indeed - far better than we were expecting. All transfers were on time and there were no hidden charges. The whole experience was amazing and our group was completely satisfied and have some wonderful memories. I would have no hesitation in recommending Adventure Africa

Five day climbing Mt Kenya up Sirimon down Chogoria route
We had an excellent five days. Joseph was a really good guide and made sure we went at a reasonable pace to avoid altitude sickness. As such, no part of the hike at all seemed strenuous! The cook, Daniel was amazing. The food far exceeded my expectations and was really excellent. Overall the crew were top class and made it a great trip.
I appreciate the level of professionalism with which the whole process was handled It was very impressive. Overall it was great trip and excellent value for money

A lot of personal attention
I had lived in east africa for several years and had gone on safari before, but our adult son had not. A Kenyan friend recommended Dickson and we were not disappointed. Most safari are showing you the same countryside and the same animals but Dickson gave a lot of personal attention to make sure everything went as planned. His driver was very friendly and a nice person to be with. Dickson selected a very nice lodge, but not the centrally located, high priced units. We took a Kenyan college student that had never been to the Mara with us. She was very impressed. It was a great time. I would recommend Dickson to any one.

Lifetime awesome Safari experience with Adventure Africa expedition for Kenya and Tanzania Safari
We had a wonderful trip with this company through the help of Dickson, they took care of us for our entire 12 days Safari Kenya and Tanzania. The trip was much more luxury than we thought and considering it was the first safari with them we were hesitant to pay the deposit as they required but after several emails we found that they are worthy trust for their instant response in emails. Ephraim who was our driver picked us up from the hotel on time and that was the order of the day for the entire Kenya Safari before he dropped us at the border from Amboseli. We had good experience on Kenyan part and especially in accommodation and delicious food which was prepared every day by the cook. The driver guide was extremely knowledgeable and patient with us, he answered all our question though sometimes we could not understand clearly not unless you are very keen and especially when the Radio is on.
One thing we observed its quite important to tell the driver to switch off the radio and the engine especially when you want to record a video to avoid the background sound from the engine.
Tanzania part was ok but you will be shocked by the difference in camping. In Kenya camping is much more luxury as compared to Tanzania, we had to use basic tents in Serengeti and the shower and toilets are outside the tents, this is one point should be clear before booking Tanzania camping safari. It was completely budget, we were provided with sleeping bags, tents and everything which we required.
Everything worked very well for us and we have no regrets of booking our safari with Dickson or Adventure Africa Expedition. They have all you need and their information is accurate and prompt feedback.
In Kenya there are many safari operators and its hard to know if you have picked the best but for me it was definitely the best company for our holiday.. If you want a holiday of good price and quality ratio of what you have paid for think of Adventure Africa Expedition they are the best and tip top quality services from pick up point when you arrive.

Excellent Services and communication skills great experience
I and my family booked our 5 days safari with them, they were very good in communication and accurate in information, it was taking less than 5 min before we got the replies which built our confidence. We had other quotation from other companies but we liked Adventure single answer though their package was slightly higher than others but at the end we felt it was worth it. From day one we were well received from our apartment in Nairobi westlands, we were picked on time and headed to their office to make our final payments which worked very well with us.
Our driver was knowledgeable with animals and he took care of us and our kids were well entertained by him all through, the food was good and our cook was great, he provided us with the diet we had requested with fresh fruits every day. The camp was clean and we were happy to be booked in one family tent which was selfcontained.
When traveling dont forget to have your personal effects and more so towels, the tent had only 2 towels which we shared but I highly advise others to carry their own just in case. Our van was comfortable but for those who wanted air conditioned van its Africa and it may not happen but the natural air and kool wind was what we wanted.
Only one thing to put in mind the last part from Norok is hell bumpy and dusty, this is the only part we felt Dickson would have advised us before but they whole safari was more than we expected and we witnessed the great migration along mara river.
Finally the speed limit is 70-80km/h which made us to spend much more time from mara to nakuru but we realized its a regulation for all tour operators, the vehicle beeps when the speed is 80km which makes it uncomfortable for your ears.
We highly recommend Adventure Africa whom we trusted with everything even before we met him and we look forward in booking Tanzania tour with them in December again. They are the best choice
