We arrived in Arusha, Tanzania on January 27, 2025 to start our second trip with Africa Dream Safaris. Once we got off the airplane we were met by staff from ADS and taken to a lounge where we had snacks and a variety of drinks waiting for us. The ADS staff checked us in with immigration and got our checked bags and then took us to the Arusha Coffee Lodge for two nights. Joseph was our driver in Arusha and we visited the School of St. Jude and a large market. The School of St. Jude is a private school that runs on donations.
Our Second Safari With ADS…Even Better Than The First!
Never Dreamed We Could be Up Close to So Many Animals!
When we began researching a possible trip to Africa, we stumbled upon a set of nearly unanimous rave reviews of Africa Dream Safaris on an independent review site. Subsequently going to the ADS website, I was impressed with all of the information there. I realized I was repeatedly going back to the ADS site for info even when looking at other tour companies.
We Are All Still Carrying A Bit Of Africa In Our Hearts!
As I sit down to write a testimonial for our trip, I find myself at almost a loss of words to describe our family safari with ADS this past summer. Words just don’t seem to do justice to our experience. All thirteen of us, aging from 8 to 75, agree that this was a trip that will never be forgotten. We received wonderful guidance and assistance in planning. Dawn was patient and quick to respond to any of our questions or concerns.
Most Importantly We Had An Amazing Guide!
From the beginning with ADS, our Safari trip coordinator, Dawn Anderson, everything went so smooth and easy. She was a huge reason why this dream trip was truly our dream come true. We cannot say enough about the information and help with setting everything up, even help with all our flights getting there and back with Cathy King.
