Dosasha is the best tour agent that I had ever dealt with
Dosasha is the best tour agent that I had ever dealt with, considering that I have traveled to more than twenty countries and regions.
The journey started when I asked for a quote. Michael, from Dosasha, was so patient and professional. He gave me an immediate response, answered my tons of questions and addressed all my concerns (since previously I had some unpleasant experience with some other tour operators in other countries, I might be over cautious sometimes). After some careful consideration and back and forth conversation I chose 12 days budget group Safari in both Kenya and Tanzania for my twelve-year-old son and myself. One small issue: the deposit payment processing was a bit challenging, but we finally resolved it.
To be honest, I was quite nervous when the date of our trip was approaching because it was the first time for me to visit Africa. Once the trip started, all my concerns have gone. We were picked up from Nairobi Airport on time, and then Michael welcomed us in Dosasha's office and gave us a brief. He was as nice and patient as I expected.
After paying the balance, we were placed in James' jeep with a safari group of 6 travelers in total in Kenya (including a couple from Spain and another couple originally from US and currently working in UK), which I really appreciated because with the group we could pay affordable price. It also turns out that some of our group members got best eyesight and could always spot animals with their naked eyes. Plus, our driver James was nice and well experienced and knew where to go to find all the animals. Each day our itinerary was as planned, but somehow always with some highlights which the driver and our group members created together, except that the accommodations were changed in one or two days but still met or exceeded my expectations.
The Safari in Tanzania was a bit different as we were placed with different groups of travelers and different drivers in different days, but the last four days we were with the same group of travelers, driver and chef.
Yes, in Tanzania we got chefs prepare our food each day. Although some of Tanzanian campsites might not have the same ideal conditions as Kenya's campsites have had, the staff I met there were all friendly and helpful, creating magic with limited resources. My son forgot his water bottle in one jeep, and the driver found the bottle next day and sent it to another driver to give it back to us in the next national park we visited. We even had the most delicious dessert in the middle of Serengeti National Park. That was beyond my expectation.
We saw everything we expected to see, all the animals on the flyer, the birds, the views, and the sceneries as beautiful as post cards, and there was something unexpected but we were lucky enough to capture, for example, two black Mambas crawling on the ground, a few tree climbing lions, six cute lion cubs with their moms, and even lion hunting scenes in two occasions, and more.
What's more impressing was that Michael kept in touch with me via WhatsApp every single day during the whole safari to ensure everything would run smoothly. Any issue happened, he was always there and resolved it in no time. I greatly appreciated it.
I think you will definitely have a good time if you choose Dosasha like we did. It will be once-in-a-lifetime experience you will never ever forget.

Incredible from start to finish
I traveled solo to East Africa this June and chose Dosasha Tours for a 10-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania after comparing several tour operators.
I couldn't have made a better choice!
From the moment I contacted them, Lilian was incredibly professional and responsible. She answered my many questions via wechat and continued to provide support after I arrived in Kenya. She personally came to pick me up at the airport and kept in touch throughout the trip, checking in every day to make sure everything was going smoothly. Any issue I raised - big or small - was handled with care and efficiency. I have said this to her a thousand times but again: thank you Lilian!
I had four guides throughout the trip - each of them kind and professional. But the second guide in Kenya, James, was simply outstanding. He was reliable, warm-hearted, always punctual, and made it his mission to help us spot all of the big five - which we did! On day 2, he raced us into the bushes to witness a predator on the hunt, which turned out to be the highlight of the day, and perhaps the entire trip. James also shared many fascinating facts about the parks, wildlife, people, and local culture. He truly made this experience a fun and deeply memorable one.
The itinerary was rich and well-paced. The accommodations were excellent, especially given the price of the tour. I stayed in comfortable, scenic tents and lodges - some even had animal visitors at night! As a solo traveler, I sometimes wished for a bit more security or reassurance, especially in more remote areas. Whenever I voiced a concern, Lilian responded immediately and adjusted the plans to offer even better options. I truly appreciated the efforts.
Watching Kilimanjaro at sunset and elephants crossing the savannah was surreal, but what truly made the experience were the people I met and the life stories I heard along the way. All of this would not have been possible without Dosasha Tours. I wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone considering an east African adventure. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made all the difference. This is a team you can trust to deliver a magical safari - an experience of a lifetime.

Very helpful and keeps in touch
I did the: 6-day Big 5 budget tour.
Dosasha tours was very helpful in getting everything ready for my tour. After asking for a quote I got an almost immediate response and the most professional response of all the quotes I did. Furthermore as a backpacker I could leave my big backpack in their office, big plus.
As solo traveler I was placed in a combined safari group, which I really appreciated, we were with 6 travelers total. From this group I had the most affordable price. The day itinerary’s were the same across the board, the only difference was in the accommodations. All accommodations I stayed in were good and, according to me, even a bit above expectations.
There was however a small problem with an overbooking of one of the accommodations. However this fault lay with the accommodation and not with the tour operator, as more people of my tour group had the same issue. The problem was quickly solved in collaboration with our guide Peter (who was a great guide).
As a final note, they kept in touch with me via WhatsApp during the full safari to ask if everything was alright. Which is something I greatly appreciated.

excellent experience in Kenya for Safari
honest review, I was backpacking alone. This is a reliable team. Dosasha was very dedicated. She asked me about my experience every day. After I finished my trip, she provided me with a lot of help in Nairobi until I left safely. I will recommend it to my friends if they need！

Exceptional Safari Experience with Dosasha Tours and Safaris Highly Recommend
Just returned from an absolutely incredible 7-day safari in Kenya, expertly arranged by Dosasha Tours and Safaris, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the very first inquiry to the final goodbye, their service was outstanding in every way. Here's why they stand out:
1.Attentive & Competitive Planning: Right from the initial consultation, Dosasha Tours and Safaris impressed me. They were the only company to carefully note my specific needs and proactively tailor their itinerary suggestions around them. This attention to detail was immediately reassuring. Combined with their very competitive pricing and incredibly prompt email responses, the booking process was smooth and efficient.
2. Seamless Arrival & Personal Touch: Once the itinerary was confirmed, their care continued. They arranged a perfectly timed airport pickup upon my arrival in Nairobi. The next day before departure the team took the time to provide a thorough and clear briefing about the entire safari, answering all my questions patiently. This personal touch made me feel well-prepared and valued.
3. Unwavering Support During the Safari: During the safari,every single day, they proactively followed up to check on my well-being, ensure everything was going smoothly with the guide and accommodation, and address any questions or needs immediately. This constant, reliable support was incredibly reassuring and made the trip truly stress-free.
If you're looking for a reliable, responsive, and genuinely caring safari operator in Kenya who provides exceptional value and unforgettable experiences, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend Dosasha Tours and Safaris and would choose them again without hesitation!

Johny is the best
I did my 7 days safari with Johny Jackson . The safari was amazing. Johny can always find the best position to take picture. Everything is fine. I saw all I expected before the departure, even more. This is my best experience in Africa.

Efficient, responsive, friendly tour for our trip to Kenya and Tanzania
The overall experience with Dosasha Tours, we are quite happy with it. We joined the Kenya and Tanzania tour package.
Dosasha arranged all the drivers, tour guides, and hotels for us in both countries very well. What I really liked about Dosasha was their efficiency. I communicated with them via WhatsApp, and they always replied as soon as possible.
In Kenya, I had an issue with bug bites. After I informed them, they contacted the hotel and arranged a room change for me. They even contacted the hotel pic to buy medicine for me to apply, which I really appreciated.
Thanks to the tour guides, we managed to see all the Big Five! All the guides spoke English, which made communication much easier for us.
Dosasha Tour was also quite flexible. Since it was just the two of us, we planned to join their budget group tour, but we were able to upgrade our hotels — which we were happy about. Of course, there was an additional charge, but we were willing to pay for the better experience.
On the last day, since our flight was at 12 a.m. (midnight), they brought us to some local and souvenir shops before heading to the airport. This wasn’t part of the original schedule, so we really appreciated the extra effort.
Although there were some minor issues — for example, we were once asked to switch to a public minibus when traveling between Kenya and Tanzania (or the other way around). At that time, we were a bit confused because no one clearly guided us on what to do, and we were just left waiting. But in the end, it was a small issue. It might have been better if we had asked more questions beforehand, as we didn’t really check the details of the arrangement.
In conclusion, we had a memorable and enjoyable trip with Dosasha Tour. Despite a few small hiccups, everything was well-organized and thoughtfully arranged. Their quick response, flexibility, and helpful service made us feel well taken care of throughout the journey. We would definitely consider traveling with them again and would recommend Dosasha Tour to anyone planning a trip to Kenya and Tanzania.

Everything is beyond expectations.
Dosasha is a very conscientious agency. One day, I complained to them that there were too many people in the vehicle. The next day, I was transferred to a new vehicle with only two people. They are very efficient. Also, their prices are very competitive.
