Wonderful 4 night safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
5/5

We booked 3 nights at Losokwan tented camp in the Lemek conservancy (Masai Mara) then one night at Lake Nakuru Lodge in Nakuru NP.

The drive from Nairobi is 5 hours which seems daunting but is an experience in itself and flies by - it is a good way to see some of the country and the alternative is to fly in to an airstrip in the parks which seems a shame to miss seeing Kenya.

The three nights at Losokwan were really luxurious with attentive staff, lovely tents and great food plus the Lemek conservancy was probably our best place for spotting game. It is a small camp (6 tents) and felt exclusive, animals can wander through at any time so you have full immersion in nature (staff escort you to and from your tent). When you leave Lemek to get to the start of the Masai Mara NP it is a long-ish drive along a bad road but that is more than made up for by the Lemek conservancy where we saw 3 generations of lions eating a kill, 2 leopards, elephant, hippos, hyena, jackals, wildebeest and so much other game. (In the conservancy, we could go off the tracks and get closer to the animals which is not allowed inside the NPs)

Inside the MM NP we saw lots of amazing game such as cheetah, hippo, buffalo and antelope.

Lake Nakuru Lodge was a much larger hotel inside the NP which makes for a less intimate feeling but you have more facilities and we liked it. (Gift shop very reasonably priced btw) We were given rooms with lovely view over the park and lake; make sure you request those. Buffets varied and catered for all tastes. Here we could drive immediately into the park and we saw rhino, leopard, Rothschild giraffe, water buck, fish eagle and flamingos. It was breathtaking.

We chose a pop-up minivan instead of a jeep which has advantages and disadvantages; the minivans are more comfortable and you can stand up and be higher up than in a jeep but the minivan is slower on bad roads and you get shaken around more. Take warm clothes for the early morning starts in August plus decent binos and cameras.

Imelda at the Dream Africa's office was very helpful and communicative both before and during our trip eg with dietary requirements (veggie and gluten free were no problem), room requests etc.

Our guide Mo was just perfect, he made the trip for us and is such a nice guy. He found all the game, he was very well informed on all the birds, trees and animals and looked after us perfectly. He is super competent but very relaxed and he still gets excited when he finds leopards and cheetah.

We would highly recommend Dream Africa and especially Mo to anyone.

Absolutely fantastic experience

I had an 8-day adventure covering Nairobi, Amboseli NP, Nakuru NP, Naivaha Lake, Mt. Longonot, and Masai Mara NP. Our driver, Toni, was incredibly professional and attentive. Imelda provided invaluable support throughout the planning process. A highlight was the unforgettable sunset aperitif organized for us in Amboseli. Highly recommended tour agency!

Super professional tour operator
5/5

I had the most incredible 8-day safari experience with this tour operator, exploring Nairobi, Amboseli National Park, Nakuru National Park, Naivasha Lake, Mt. Longonot, and Masai Mara National Park. The tour was fully tailor-made to our preferences, making it a truly personalized adventure.

The standout feature of this experience was the exceptional service provided by the team. Imelda who made our itinerary displayed an impressive level of professionalism and genuine helpfulness. Not only did she expertly organize our tour, but she also provided invaluable support when we encountered a visa-related issue. Her assistance made our trip seamless and stress-free.

Our driver Toni was incredibly professional and attentive to our every need. He ensured that we felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey. The vehicle provided, a spacious 4x4 mini van, was not only comfortable and reliable, but it was also immaculately maintained. Each evening, Toni diligently cleaned both the interior and exterior of the vehicle.

Despite the high quality of service, their prices were more than reasonable, offering incredible value for the unforgettable experience we had. I wholeheartedly recommend this agency to anyone seeking a memorable and well-organized safari adventure. From the itinerary planning to the on-ground support, they exceeded all expectations.

Kudos Team Dream Africa, you guys are simply superb
5/5

We had booked safari in Kenya from Dream Africa, for Amboseli, Lake Nakuru,Naivasha and of course the wildest of the wild the one and only Masai Mara. I would like to thank Mr. Joseph and Ms Imelda for their seamless trip planning and itinerary, it was like really living your dream. They constantly remained in touch to make our trip comfortable. Our most sincere thanks to Mr. Solomon, our tour guide who was not only brilliant, but also equally enthusiastic in making our game drives worthwhile. If we talk value for money, then Dream Africa should be our last answer. We look forward to coming back to Masai Mara and it goes without saying Dream Africa would be our choice again.

Thanks to Dream Africa Tours, my recent exploration of Cape Town, South Africa was an absolute delight. Their well-crafted itinerary allowed me to indulge in the region's natural wonders, vibrant culture, and exquisite flavors. Among the numerous highlights, the wine-tasting experiences at Stellenbosch Vineyards and Meerlust Wine Estate were truly exceptional.

Dream Africa Tours thoughtfully included a visit to Stellenbosch Vineyards, where I had the opportunity to savor the world-renowned wines of the region.

Guided by knowledgeable experts, I discovered the intricate flavors and aromas of the region's exquisite wines.

The helicopter ride over the Cape Mountains provided breathtaking panoramic views that will forever remain etched in my memory.

Throughout the trip, Dream Africa Tours' attention to detail and commitment to exceptional service was evident. The accommodations at the Double-Tree Hilton Hotel were comfortable, allowing for much-needed relaxation after eventful days of exploration. The guides and staff were knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about sharing the wonders of Cape Town.

In conclusion, my journey with Dream Africa Tours through Cape Town was a perfect blend of exploration, cultural immersion, and indulgence.

5/5

We went on a five-day safari and had excellent encounters with almost all animals that live in Kenya. Our contact in the office kept in touch and all special requests were accepted. Our driver did a great job and drove very well. He had contact to the other drivers so we got to see the best views. We was always punctual and polite and he also answered all kinds of questions.

The staff are very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed from the booking date up until after the trip.

The safari itself was wonderful, we had a

Highly recommend them.

Amazing! Highly recommend!

Dec 2022

We did a 5 days, 4 nights safari to the Masai Mara and we highly recommend this Dream Africa Tours. The safari itself was just amazing. We saw all the big 5 and many more wonderful animals.

Our guide, Antony, was great. Antony always had a good attitude, arrived on time and is a very good driver (including on off-roads trips). Antony was also very respectful to the animals and obeyed to the strict rules of the Mara Conservancy.

The company was also very flexible and responsive. Our original international flight was canceled, so we missed our domestic flight to the Masai Mara. The company quickly and seamlessly arranged for us a perfect alternative flight (with no extra charge) and made sure we make it to the flight. This really saved our day.

As many other reviewers wrote, the visit to the Maasai village was super-touristic, but that’s not the fault of the company.

We stayed at the Losokwan Luxury Camp, which is perfectly located just in the middle of the Mara north. We stayed there 4 nights and in every game-drive we saw something different (so I suggest staying at least 3 nights there, and potentially even longer, time permitting).

Overall, there are so many tour operators and it’s hard to choose one company. After spending hours on reading reviews, we chose Dream Africa Tours and we had high expectations. They exceeded all the expectations (and for a reasonable price compared to other operators).
