Going On Safari With Africa Dream Safaris Is Truly An Elevated Experience!

Romantic Getaways

April 6, 2024April 10, 2024 by Michael

We have recently returned from our second safari with Africa Dream Safaris (ADS) and all I can say is it was truly a trip of a lifetime! Admittedly, I was reluctant to return to the Serengeti after our trip with ADS in 2018. I was concerned that it might be a let down the second time around as our first trip was an amazing, life altering experience. My wife Donna has a certain persistent way about her and lucky for us we returned! My skepticism couldn’t have been more wrong as Sharon pulled out all the stops to deliver a truly amazing experience.

From Our Initial Planning To The Goodbyes To New Friends, This Trip Was Unforgettable!

Our Africa Dream Safari was an amazing trip. From our arrival at the airport to our departure we felt welcomed and cared for. Our guide Alex was wonderful, with an educational background (PhD) in wildlife ecology, years working for Serengeti National Park, and experience supervising a group of safari camps.

Another Unforgettable Adventure with ADS!

This was our second trip to Tanzania with Africa Dream Safaris (our first safari was in October 2021). We were wondering if a second safari might be boring but every day proved to be a new and exciting adventure. Our guide Fazal knew where the animals would be hiding, and even found a family of bat eared foxes and a very rare caracal!

It Just Keeps Getting Better!

We just returned from our 4th safari with Africa Dream Safaris and it was every bit as magical as our first. My wife, DeeDee, was a little reluctant to return to the Serengeti again as she was concerned it could not be as good as the last…boy was she wrong!

Our Trip Began And Ended With Our Phenomenal Guide!

I want to thank you and Africa Dreams Safari for providing my friend Sheila and me with an adventure I still have trouble finding words to describe. I’ll start with spell-binding. I feel as though I had stepped through a portal into a new, vast and wondrous life scape that enriches my present existence beyond measure.

Maybe Twice In A Lifetime?

January 21, 2024March 6, 2024 by Michael

In August 2023, I realized a decades-long dream of going on a safari. I originally planned a trip for 2010, and selected ADS based on a recommendation I had received years before and thankfully kept. Things changed, as they do, and that trip never came to fruition. At that point, I told myself that within a year of retiring, I would make that dream a reality. And I did!

Beautiful, Wild and Perfect!

Kristi and I first contacted ADS nearly ten years ago. The packet that we received in the mail lived on our bookshelf, through multiple moves and life changes, as a reminder of a dream. We watched the Hemingway experience video over and over and I must admit I had some doubts that the experience could live up to their depiction. I am excited to say that it was everything they said it could be and more! Placing our faith in ADS to plan and coordinate our August 2023 Dream Safari was the most perfect choice we could have possibly made.

The Land Of Abundance!

December 12, 2023March 6, 2024 by Michael

I’m a traveler. I take 2 big trips a year and 4 to 6 small trips. I happily suffer from Wanderlust and I’m not looking for a cure! With most of my travels, I always say I’m going to return but never do. There are just so many wonderful places to explore. In August 2022, I had visited South Africa, Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and Botswana as a solo traveler on a 16 day group tour. The trip was incredible.

Africa had touched my soul in a way no other place had done before and I wanted to return. I started doing some research and before I left Botswana, I had already made contact with Sharon Lyon of Africa Dream Safaris. Tanzania, the Serengeti and the Great Wildebeest Migration were high on my to do list!

Celebrating Our 40th Wedding Anniversary In Tanzania!

December 10, 2023March 6, 2024 by Michael

I can’t even begin to tell you how wonderful our anniversary safari trip was. ADS and Tanzania exceeded our expectations in every way. We did not have one problem. Everyone was helpful and kind. Michael, our guide, was AMAZING! He knew all about Tanzania, every animal, their behavior, and where to position the Land Cruiser for the best view and photos. He was able to spot the wildlife when they were hardly visible to the eye. How does he do that?

Thank You For Making Our Dream Come True!

November 24, 2023March 6, 2024 by Michael

Africa Dream Safaris was wonderful from start to finish. They provided us with a package of very useful information prior to the trip. From the time we landed in Tanzania with a friendly face to welcome us, until we were returning to go home (so sad!), everything was very well planned.

Family Vacations

There are few experiences in life that exceed all expectations no matter how much it’s talked up prior. My family’s ADS safari truly exceeded all expectations. From the camps to our guide, Roman, we couldn’t have asked for more.

An Awe-Inspiring Epic Adventure That We Will Never Forget!

November 16, 2023March 6, 2024 by Michael

We just returned from our safari and it still feels like it was all a dream come true. Hundreds of thousands of animals in all directions to the horizon. A diversity of animals beyond belief and lots of baby animals. The circle of life was vividly and dramatically illustrated and the connectivity of all the animals in this amazing place was beautiful.

All I can say is what an amazing time we had touring Tanzania with African Dream Safaris. It was an incredible journey from the beginning planning stages working with Dawn. She helped with planning and scheduling with our changes and ultimately gave us an incredible anniversary trip.
