Michelle took the time to listen to what we wanted and planned the right package for us.
We were able to see the Big Five many times. The service at the lodges that we stayed at was excellent and the value was exceptional. English was widely spoken.

Great Experiences with Savannah Adventures
We booked several tours with them and we we very satiesfied. The Safari Game Drive to the Zambezi National Park was amazing, the guide was on time, very knowledgable and found the animals at the right spots. We also enjoyed the vintage breakfast on a beautiful white sandy beach next to the zambezi river. What a treat! The walking safari to the Victoria Falls and the historic bridge is also a must, we were glad we booked it because it was fun and filled with historical infos of the area and Zimbabwe in general. The guide we had there was Carlos and he really enjoys being a guide you could tell. A wonderful experience , we were sad we only booked 3 night at this wonderful destination..we should have planned more time here. Thank you for your hospitality.

Dennis, the driver, good job!
Dennis, the driver, worked very hard, and his eyes were very strong, and he could see animals in the distance, and we saw everything we could see except hunting, which was the only regret.

Once in a Life Time experience
Spoiler alert: This is tour is not meant for those who typically do all-paid beach vacations. African safaris are rusty and rugged, but you will forget all about that once you get into the Serengeti park.
Lucas is private and custom tour operator. You will discuss the plan and route with him. He has an amazing personality, customer care attitude and he is very safety oriented. You will be with him all the days of the tour. He knows the area like the back of his hand and he had memorized the names of all birds and animals. He knows the terrain and area well (No GPS as there are no cell signals). He goes by his knowledge, instincts and sometimes radioing his net work of friends (especially getting getting hints on where the big cats are hanging out).
We had a group of seven that fits nicely in the modified (I.e., ruggedized) Toyota Land Cruisers they use. These vehicle are bare bone rugged beasts (no AC), some of the roads are unpaved and rugged.
If you have the right mindset, you will totally enjoy the safari

Professional, knowledgeable, great instinct - overall, blow away
We did a 6-day safari, starting in Amboseli (from Nairobi), then Naivasha (boat trip and Crescent Island walk), Nakuru and finally two days in Masai Mara. Bushtop were amazing from start to finish - booking was very smooth, and Denis was very helpful adapting the trip to our wishes. James, our guide, was amazing - very knowledgeable and informative about the animals, with a great instinct for tracking them down as well as some incredible moments (lions hunting twice, for example, as well as two leopards, which is very unusual). He’s very professional, and always made us feel safe and at ease. This is my fourth safari (including working for a few months in a camp in SA), and I was blown away.

Great value for money, quick and flexible communication
We chose this company because of the low price, fast and detailed communication. And we were not disappointed. We had a wonderful driver/guide Robie who became a friend over the 6 days of the safari.He was a great driver and we were always first in the games.Although the car was old, it was clean. We always had enough water in the car. Robie solved all technical problems quickly and with a smile. The accommodation exceeded expectations, especially in the Masai Mara. A suggestion for improvement would be to have at least 1 pair of binoculars in the car. I recommend asking before the safari what the car will be, it is always better to choose a 4x4 jeep, because it will pass more easily on difficult roads, and bigger windows.

Responsive and kind
Sandra and her team were eager to please and very responsive to any concern I might have on my 7-day group joining budget safari.
While there we a few hiccups here and there, they were quickly resolved with swift communication by Sandra and even upgrades when necessary. I received a daily message on Whatsapp asking me how were things going and whether anything needed to be taken care of, which I really appreciated.
Of course one must understand the differences between budget, mid-range and luxury safaris and adjust their expectations accordingly, so if you are unsure feel free to ask Sandra to explain in more detail and offer options according to your needs, wants and resources.
Masai Mara and Amboseli are once in a lifetime experiences, and Lake Nakuru, Lake Navaisha and Hell's Gate are well worth a visit. 7 days is a little long to be travelling and going on game drives every day, so if I were to do it again I would probably break it up in a few shorter trips with some time to rest in the middle.
All that being said, I am pleased with the service I received from Dosasha travel and would recommend them.

Pollmans the only way to see Kenya
We did the 7 day Kenya Classis safari 6/1/2024 . What an amazing experience!! No words can describe the feeling of being up so close to the animals in their natural environment.
Our AMAZING Guide Peter made our trip unforgettable , he was a wealth of knowledge regarding animals birds vegetable and we were up front for all the best pics.
He had the patience of a saint with us stopping EVERY single time we asked for a pic .
He could spot the smallest of animals in the distance and was constantly on the radio to find the best spots to go to .
He advised us to do afternoon safaris earlier in the day when he knew the weather was going to be bad ( we had rain ) so we could get the very best experience.
Peter went over and above to ensure we were always happy and made sure we were well catered for in our accommodation.
Peter ensured our jeep was kept spotless he cleaned it at the end of every day & out water was refilled & refrigerated daily .A lovely surprise for me My runners were even cleaned by Peter after getting mucky on crescent island .
We made a forever friend with Peter he just made out whole safari .
And we look forward to him coming to visit us in Ireland
