One of the reasons I like your vlogs is that I can watch them with my kids without expecting a PG scene. They also give me ideas of places to visit.

[@DaveMani]

Of course! We will always stay family friendly, our nieces and nephews back in Canada also watch our videos! .p

[@DaveMani]

Kenya is wonderful :)

[@blochspin]

many international youtubers are organizing group tours for foreign tourists of countries they are super familiar with. You guys know enough about Kenya to pull it off. I would definitely sign up.

[@DaveMani]

We are for sure thinking about it. I am simply not sure if people would be interested to be stuck with us for a week and also if I can entertain people for that long! 🤣

[@adrianbandika]

Wow, the poduction quality....top notch, absolutely love it!!👌👌

[@DaveMani]

Much appreciated!

[@mwanvlogs]

Thanks for the kind and honest review about our country Kenya. Its unfortunate that most Kenyans dont enjoy all these goodies in their neighbourhood. May the lord help me to visit Maasai mara this year. I love my country Kenya

All the best to Kenya! 🇰🇪❤️

[@DaveMani]

Wow thank you so much for that! It means a lot.

[@alexchui3511]

Looks like the moment you hooked up with Ongeri expeditions, your safari experience went up many notches higher and for good reasons. The Mani's and Ongeri expeditions is a match made in heaven. Good for both of you as this is what collaboration should be all about.

[@DaveMani]

Haha they are really good at finding all the great safari spots! :)

[@Mashariki_0]

The mara after the rainy season is so lush, I love it. I never make resolutions because I always forget the moment I put the pen down but this year I'm making one. My resolution for this year is to take a trip courtesy of Ongeri expeditions

[@DaveMani]

We are in the mara right now again and the lushness is at another level. Never grass this tall!!! Loll

I heard Dave making the same comments and feeling the same feelings as me during my stay at Sanctuary Olonana = I will never forget my fantastic visit there and cried when it was time to leave. I told the Olonana staff to help me find a way to ship my pets to me and I'd stay there forever haha

[@alexchui3511]

I know the goal is to tour the world after you live Kenya this June. But I can't help but wonder of the business opportunities available to you especially on tourism/safari side of things right here in Kenya. The amount of time you've spent here, the connections and networks, the countlesss parks, reserves and sanctuaries you've visited in Kenya and the general knowledge of Kenya's tourism landscape you have gained through your experiences. I see a very big business opportunity. Maybe you can think about it when you go back home in Canada for the six weeks. Travel the world but maybe still run a tourist business here. Don't sleep on all that knowledge and experience you've built while living in Kenya.

[@DaveMani]

You're for sure right but our desire to see the world is larger than our desire for business opportunities. :) Maybe we'll just start safari tours in Kenya in the near future tho. Who knows... 😎

[@martino6205]

Olonana was the head of the Maasai when the British arrived in the 1890s. Due to a major drought and a cattle disease that had come from Arabia, the Maasai had been devastated (which they have never recovered from), and their power waned. They had no option but to get into a military alliance with the British, even offered most of the land they had conquered in their march south, for British settlement. Some people see him as a traitor, and allowed violent colonization,others see him as a person who had no choice but do what he needed to do. The third highest peak in Mt Kenya is named after him, a major elite school formerly named after the Duke of York was renamed after him, and lots of places in Nairobi are also named after Lenana (Olonana).

[@DaveMani]

Wow thanks for the history lesson. Very interesting :)

It's a shame that most guests just want to get a shot of the big 5 and the larger mammals in Africa. There is so much more out there that people can see and experience. Only a true safari adventurist will appreciate the birds, insects, fish, reptiles and plants.

[@DaveMani]

You're right but the main reason is that most people are going on safari as a once in a lifetime trip and if that would have been the case for us to would would have had the same expectations. (Lions, elephants, cheetahs, etc.)

I have a question why do wake-up so early

[@DaveMani]

I am personally a morning person so I do it all the time but on safari the earlier the better to see animals.

[@cryptoth4n0s77]

Great view but that water is just too close, you dont trust Kenyan rivers any time. Ask the guys at samburu serena, in 2008 there was floods and it brought a crocodile into the swimming pool. Following year larsen camp was also marooned. Have never experienced the same at the mara game reserve but that river is too close for comfort.

[@DaveMani]

I get your point.
