Affordable and trustworthy
5/5

Thank you Drones (branch of Baboon Budget Safaris) for organising this incredible adventure. Thanks Reuben and Anthony - driver guides - for being always on time, for the knowledge they were so willing to share, for care and especially for thier respect to the wildlife. Choosing budget option I was a bit afraid of accommodation contidions but, as it occured, without need - they were simple but clean and safe. It is typical in Kenya that commuting takes a lot of time (somtimes during safari it takes whole day to go from one park to another) but I was ready for that.
If you are single traveller and wonder if to choose this option I strongly advise you to - beside safe and nice stay you can meet incredible people on the way!

Best trip ever
5/5

This was a once in a lifetime trip for us and I am so glad we chose Drones Africa Safaris. From our first interaction with Lizzy we knew we were in good hands. She answered all of our questions patiently and was very accommodating in planning the exact itinerary we needed. Our guides, Jose were the best that we could have hoped for. They were friendly, charming, and obviously very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife in the Mara Nakuru and Amboseli . We felt like a part of the family after 6 days, and we were sad to say goodbye to them. If you are looking for a smaller safari company that will treat you well and customize a trip exactly to your specifications, you should absolutely choose Drones Africa Safaris.

Very well organised.
5/5

We booked with Lizzy through Drones Africa Safari. Lizzy was very quick to response and took care of all our requirements, my partner has a lot of food allergies and Lizzy communicated with the accommodation to advise them and all went well. Richard our driver was faultless, brilliant driver and took his time with us and allowed us to take many photos of the animals.

Reliable and well organized operator
5/5

Together with my boyfriend we've booked 10 days budget safari in Kenia and Tansania for September/October 2022. Our main contact from Drones Safaris side was Lizzy - she was always helpful and replied really fast whenever we had some questions.
Regarding safari itself:
On Kenya side our guide was Anthony and we were traveling with a safari van. Anthony is a really good guide, he knows National Parks well so we were able to see a lot of animals. He is also an awesome driver. We always felt safe with him + he was very flexible whenever we needed extra stop at the ATM or shop.
The border crossing could be more organized - we were kinda left alone after formalities and had to wait 3h for the shuttle bus to departure. We heard from other travelers that they had a similar experience, so maybe that's just how an Afrikan Bordecrossing looks like.
In Tansania we traveled with 4x4 Land cruiser and a different driver - William. In general we liked the Tansania part aswell, but we preferred Kenia. In Tansania was a smaller variety of animals (but it also depends on the season you are coming).
The accommodations in Kenya and Tansania were:
Miti Mingi Eco Camp, City Max Hotel, Kimana Camp Site, Ambassador Hotel, Simba Camp and Serengeti Camp. Hotels are always better as there is warm water guaranteed while in other locations that was not always the case. You should bear in mind, it's a budget safari so do not expect anything exclusive, but all the locations were fine.
In general: We would recommend anyone to book a safari with Drones Africa Safaris. We had an amazing time and felt taken care of from the arrival to departure (they even picked us up from the airport and dropped off after safari). It was an unforgettable adventure! Thank you Drones Africa Safaris for making it happen.

Dear Dominika & Moritz ,

Thank you very much for trusting us while on your holiday in Africa and for taking the time to review us, we are happy that you had a wonderful safari experience and that Anthony did excellent work. about the border crossing sometimes the tourist shuttle bus can delay to arrive at Namanga due to traffic as well as the slow operations of the immigration officials hence travelers wait for a long duration of time.
Thank you again for the recommendation

Perfect summit tour of Kilimanjaro!
5/5

From start to finish, the tour company was totally professional! Our guide Justin, cook Emmanuel, and porters Valerian, Juma, Munasa, Eric, and Hibaru were so friendly, professional and amazingly hard workers. Justin definitely assembled a team that I can recommend to everyone!

I made it to the summit if Kilimanjaro with Justin and valerian's encouragement!

By the end, I felt like we were all old friends or family, and I feel like I'm actually their friend now!

Highly recommend!
