Good communication and comfortable safari
Great experience from the start. Lennox / Cynthia were very responsive during the booking stage and our guide Kevin made sure that our trip was comfortable. We were provided a few accommodation options to choose from based on budget and desired comfort level and very pretty happy with the lodges. Overall there were no surprises and they stuck to the original itinerary promised while booking.

MEMORABLE AND GREAT 4-DAY TRIP WITH MY FAMILY
My family of 7 and I travelled to the Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli then participated in the hot-air balloon safari, bird watching, horse riding and boat riding. It was such a stunning experience travelling with Antonio Safaris. My wife, daughters and sons were so excited and actually wanted to extend the stay to one more day. We recommend this company to anyone looking for a trusted tour operator in East Africa.

Incredible Experience
Being a solo traveler, and on my first safari trip, I was anxious to say the least. But there was no need, as Henry and they team put all my worries at ease from the booking process, right through to the final day!
I went for the 6 day Safari, visiting Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, finishing at Masai Mara. For the first 4 days, my driver Johson was absolutely fantastic. I was simply amazed at his knowledge of both his country and the animals that can be found, answering any and all questions I fired at him. He also had exceptional eye sight, managing to spot the smallest of animals from what seemed to be a mile away. The game drives around Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru where an absolute joy - where he simple knew where to place the vehicle to get the best view/ photos of the animals, this payed off as it resulted in a pride of lions walking directly towards us at one point.
Unfortunately the vehicle we where using had to return to Nairobi half way through the trip, for its annual checkup. Johnson had to return also - however Henry had personally organized a second vehicle to continue the safari, and attended the finals days as a guide also. These final days I was privileged to have a Maasai person as the driver (sorry I forget his name), who once again had incredible knowledge of the area - and the wildlife. On top of that, he also had clear knowledge of where the various animals could be found throughout the day - with near laser accuracy to find them.
Ended the safari with a trip to a Kenyan BBQ in Nairobi with Henry!!
I cannot recommend Dume Africa enough. Henry was available at all times, answering both E-mails and phone calls swiftly to answer any questions I had.
Would I recommend, or use in the future? 110% yes!!
Thanks for an incredible experience, and I hope our paths cross in the future!

Respectful and reliable
We had extraordinary Safari between Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Julius and chef Kisauti. Kisauti is the sweetest person and he cooks the best soups ever, while Julius is not only extremely competent, but also very respectful towards the animals and the environment (and he has the best stories to tell!). As for the Safari, we saw the big five and we lived a true adventure at our own pace, with our needs and wishes always taken into account. Next time we will come back to Julius 100%.

Chris is not only organized, punctual and professional but the kindest man you'll
My husband and 3 daughters just completed a fabulous 7 day Christmas safari with Christopher. He was recommended by a dear friend who had taken her family (3 sons) on safari July 2023. -We went to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Lake Masek and Central Serengeti. Christopher planned the perfect itinerary -we truly wouldn't have changed any of our lodging choices and we saw such diversity in topography and animals. We loved the majestic 2700 yr old Baobab trees speckling the Tarangire, the lush Jurassic Park' like feel of the Ngorongoro, the giraffe sculpted acacia trees in Lake Masek, and the Great Plains of the Serengeti. We saw lions, huge herds of elephants (200+ elephants), the migrating herds of wildebeest and zebra, giraffe, hippos, hyena and so so much more! My daughter has a recent diagnosis of Celiac and Chris worked with each location to be sure she had gluten free celiac safe options. We can not say enough good things about Chris Samwel and I Dream of Africa!

Knowledgeable and helpful
Daniel really helped two complete novices navigate the enormous options of where to go and what to see. He tailored the experience to us perfectly.
Tony our guide was brilliant, nothing was too much effort and his knowledge seemingly endless.
I highly recommend this company

A perfectly organized safari!
We did a thorough research before booking this safari but Morning Star made the difference from the beginning. From day one we felt safe thanks to the great communication we had with Dennis, who was always available to plan with us our dream safari.
The tour was exactly as planned, we had the chance to see everything we wanted and had so much fun. We went to Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. All hotels were perfect, we stayed at Ol Tukai Lodge, Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge and Zebra Plains Mara.
Our guide Peter was always on time and he was super flexible and super eager to help us on anything that came up. We really appreciated his effort for us to see as many animals as we could while also providing many information for them. He was
Both Dennis and Peter were willing to go beyond to make sure that we were having the time of our lives.
A massive thank you to the Morning Star team! Highly recommended!

Friendly and reliable tour operator!
Our experience with Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours was great! Tongesai was very friendly and ensured that we were comfortable throughout. He shared interesting information about the falls and region. Tongesai was prompt with his communication before and during the tour. He was always timely when collecting us from our accommodation. We would recommend Cultural Vibes to our friends.
