Review about Samburu National Reserve by Barry
A very under rated park that during some times during the year is as good as the Masai Mara.

Amazing experience from start to finish
We had an amazing time with our guide Herbert! We had a great time every step of the way from the moment we were picked up. Hiking with the gorillas was UNREAL! We felt so lucky seeing them in their natural habitat.
Herbert was so helpful and accommodating. On our last day we wanted to hike with the golden monkeys but also needed to catch a flight that evening. Herbert made sure we were able to do both, and even made arrangements for us to have a quick shower after the trek at a nearby guesthouse.

An incredible experience with a wonderful guide.
Our tour was an incredible experience. We saw amazing animals, landscapes, and met amazing people. We loved every place we went to. The gems that stand out was Ngorongoro Crater (one of the most stunning places we have ever been to) and to our surprise, the visit to the Lake Eyasi and the Hadzabe tribe. We were able to learn about their culture and see how, despite the pressures of modernization, they continue to follow their old traditions. We even accompanied them on their hunt! Amazing. Our driver, Bonny, was a great resource during the tour. We had many interesting conversations with him as he taught us about the locations we were visiting, various cultures, and our questions. He also took very good care of us during the drive and at each of the lodgings, making sure we had everything we needed. During the drive itself over the sometimes rought terrain, he was well prepared and clearly an expert at taking care of the jeep and we never had any problems with the vehicle (although we did see quite a few!). In short, I would highly recommend both this tour and Destiny Explorers!

Enthusiastic, safe and reliable.
This tour with Dream Bandas Uganda was a great experience. The monkeys we saw (Golden monkeys, chimpanzees and gorillas) was a once in a lifetime experience. If you are even slightly interested, we highly recommend!! The walk to the chimpanzee hike took us through the beautiful Banda village hidden away in the jungle between two mountains. The golden monkeys were gorgeous creatures and numbered well over one hundred! And in such close proximity - they would walk right past you. And of course, the gorillas were breathtaking and again, so close! We saw a family with a silverback, several mothers and a rambunctious baby that was very interested in becoming friends with our group. The guides at each location were knowledgeable and enthusaistic and we felt very safe throughout the entire experience. Our driver, Edgar, made the long drives between locations relaxing and comfortable. He provided us with information about the places we went by and was a great companion on the trip. We would highly recommend this tour! When you do go to see the monkeys and continue to support the local conservation efforts, be sure to also speak with the wonderful people in the local communities. Meeting the people of Rwanda and Uganda and learning about their lives and cultures was a wonderful addition to our trip! We definitely will come back in the future and hopefully tour again with Dream Bandas Uganda.

Very Professional
They delivered on what they promised without any issues. I was happy with my 2-day trip to Amboseli. I wished I would have taken longer time but all in all the short tour was worth every moment. Happy with the services offered by Kentau.

The best guide in Kenya
Amazing safari! Joseph took us to collected all the "Big Five" and enthusiastically introduced the names and habits of the animals to us along the way. He always has a passion for nature and this land, we can see it and we are very moved. Thank you Joseph for bringing us wonderful memories of Kenya, the nature is so amazing and beautiful. We would definitely return to Kenya again.

Thank you Kentau Safaris for the monumental experience.
Completing a 5-day Mt. Kenya hike was a significant accomplishment for my wife and me. Our guide, Alex, was consistently understanding and supportive. While the food didn't fully meet my preferences, the overall experience, meticulous planning, and seamless coordination by Kentau deserve a 5-star rating.

Detailed, Supportive and very knowledgable
Kenya was amazing but the support that Dream Africa gave me made it even better. I did the game-viewing at Amboseli and all recommendations that the team gave were amazing. I would highly recommend them.
