EXPERIENTIAL JOURNEYS ACROSS EAST AFRICA
The road is the story.
Safari, overland and cultural journeys through Uganda and Kenya, shaped by the people who live there, the food on the fire and the music that carries on after dark.
Small groups | Local guides and hosts | One team from arrival to departure
An expedition house, not a tour operator.
Most itineraries treat the drive between parks as dead time. We think it is where the trip happens. Dreamcatcher Safaris designs journeys across Uganda and Kenya with a filmmakers eye and a hosts heart.
