Fantastic 7 days safari with Afrika suset safari
Our family of five had a wonderful 7 days safari in Kenya with Afrika suset safari. Our guide Paul was superb. Very dedicated and full of nowledge. He went the extra mile so that we could expiriense all the big five. We got to see a lot of wildlife and a lot more varity of landscape even that expected. The accommodation and food was great and of a hig standard. We will higly recomend the trip to anyone and would love to do it again in the future.

Safari in Masai Mara and Nakuru
We are a family of four, with two grown-up children who went on safari - three days in Masai Mara and one day in Nakuru. The experience was great and we would like to highlight the following:
We chose Tekko Tours & Travel as our agent for the stay due to their excellent service when designing the trip. A big thank you to Maggie for always following up on our queries and responding quickly on all matters. The service during our trip was also excellent. We were met at the airport and all practicalities with hotels, lodges and transportation were arranged "invisibly" with no unneccessary waiting time all the way until we headed back home.
The safari driver and guide, Stephen, was very friendly and kind and drove us comfortably and safely to interesting watching spots for the animals. He also had very good knowledge of the area and the animals we saw.
We chose a Toyota Land Cruiser for the game drives and recommend this type of car due to its ability to get through "everywhere".
For our part, four days was fine, as we were able to watch both "Big five" and the other animals we were hoping to see during these days. Both the wildlife and scenery were experiences for lifetime due to the natural beauty and the "authenticity" of the experience - very different from visiting a zoo.
We decided to limit ourselves to Masai Mara and Nakuru. If you decide to include more areas on the same trip, we suggest to carefully consider time balance between game drives and mere transportation.
Overall, we can highly recommend Tekko Tours & Travel as your partner in designing and arranging your Kenya/Safari vacation and if you have the chance, we definitely recommend including game drives and safari on your Bucket list!

Stunning wildlife and scenery
Amazing trip - in 7 days we did Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Hell's Gate and Ambolseli - each park offered different animals and foliage. Trip was the perfect length for what we wanted to cover.

A Lifetime Experience
It was an amazing experience with Lenchada Safaris. .
Since the first e-mail to drop off at hotel at the end of the tour everything was perfect .
On the way from Masai Mara to Nakuru we were taken to Lake Naivasa for a boat ride that was not included in our itineraries...so relaxing and enjoyable.
Tents and hotel was just as it was mentioned and simply perfect. Staff members of the tents were nice and cordial. Foods were fresh and good. Water bottles were adequate for all.
Isaac our guide...an experienced driver ,a guide with huge knowledge, such a nice human beings.
He take concerns of everything.

Thanks to all Lenchada Teams.
Specially Isaac ,Alex Ombeva,Minneh...whomever I came in contact in any means.

Amazing variety of animals, birds and backdrop
Great wildlife and scenery.
Weather was great
Accomodations for the 3rd night was awesome, the first and second night was great, especially the hidden tunnel that went to the watering hole.
Guide was very good, Nimrod.
Only thing I would do differently is take the train to and from Nairobi to Tsavo East. Driving back into Nairobi (just before we got to the airport area) was very long and painfully slow. We stayed downtown and it must have take at least 2 hours from the airport to our hotel.

Fabulous trip to Kenya
The safari was great, thanks to "Right Choice Tours and safaris" and our guide Jacob.
We took 3 nights in Masai Mara, 1 night in Lake Bogoria, and 2 nights in Amboseli.
Masai Mara was the best part. Jacob led us to the leopard, cheetah, elephant, and lion in just one morning! Everyone was saying that we were so lucky to see the leopard as it was quite rare nowadays. He was trying to lead us to the rhino in that particular afternoon but got stuck in the mud (unfortunately we were travelling in minivan), twice, which caused us altogether 10 hours staying in the car. The rescue was slow and inefficient. We finally reached our lodge around 2:50 am. And we finally lost our chance to see any rhino. But we were trying to be not so disappointed, afterall we observed any other animals, and they deserved our appreciation. Pity that we didn't see the great migration; the local people said it would most probably happen around late August this year.
We chose Lake Bogoria instead of Nakuru for the flamingo, but there weren't many in this time of year, much less than that in Amboseli. And as we missed Nakuru, we also missed the opportunity to see rhinos, so it was a pity for us for this Kenya trip.
There weren't as many animal species in Amboseli as that in Masai Mara, but we took many wonderful pictures of elephants with snow-covered-Kilimanjaro. And there were more birds, beautiful.
Overall, it was really a great experience. Many thanks to George, the owner of Right Choice Tours and safaris, who gave us satisfying service. And many thanks to Jacob, our guide, again, for the best service and accompany. Next time we’ll try to ask for Jacob’s advice before we go there, in order to have a better arrangement of the tour, and to get to the right place in their best season.

Very good.
Wonderful wildlife. Accommodations, food and transportation were very good.
An amazing experience
We had four days safari. One day in Lake Nakuru, and three days in Maasai Mara.
It totally lived up to our expectations. Amazing wildlife, we got to see the big five, and many more animals.
Our guide even spotted a female leopard with two cubs on our last day, and managed to get really close to them, that was amazing.
We would really recommend Features Africa. They helped us planning our tour, and kept in touch all the way.
