“Nobody does African itineraries like the Faraway. It was my first international business trip and I wanted a farm tour. I traveled in a group and it felt like family. It was an exhilarating two weeks that took us round the country and the adventures got better with each day"
Ajoke,
Farmer, Nigeria.
Thank you for one of the most beautiful experience I've had yet. It was my first time in Africa but I felt at home from day one. Being able to work while traveling across Kenya and Tanzania was the perfect way to ease into exploring this continent. Impatiently waiting for future trips.”
Trevor,
Photographer, America
“This was my first solo trip, and thank you for being meticulous about my planning. It was the perfect combination of adventurous and restful. I also had very respectable guides the entire way, and it made me feel comfortable and safe. I had a great time.”
