Me and my family visited Masai Mara with SafariBookings this summer and it was a truly special experience for us. First and foremost, we saw so many animals and wildlife, even seeing a lion eating a buffalo. The highlight of our trip was our guide Kelvin, he was super helpful with everything we needed and explained everything thoroughly. He made sure to always drive us to the best spots to see lions, hippos and elephants. Beware that the wifi in the hotels is not great but it's an opportunity for a much needed digital detox. The tour of the Masai Mara village was also insightful, and everyone was super helpful and allowed us to step into their homes when it suddenly started raining.

Our tour to Maasai Mara was an amazing experience. Close encounter with thousands of living animals was an unforgettable one.
Kudos to Lucy and Alex of Savannah Woods Safari for taking good care of us!

One of the most beautiful places on the planet.

We visited Kenya (Nakuru and Maasai Mara) as part of our honeymoon, and it didn't disappoint.

Throughout our trip, we were consistently stunned by the country's beauty and landscapes. We were incredibly lucky to have seen 'The Big Five' within the first 24 hours. We honestly couldn't believe it!

The food and hospitality we enjoyed was fantastic. We felt welcome wherever we went.

A few tips for first time travellers, be sure to book your Yellow Fever jab before visiting the country - especially if you're planning to fly onto another country afterwards. Customs require this before you can leave the country. Secondly, avoid the East Africa Expressway at all costs. It's the main road from Nairobi into the Mara region and is notorious for traffic jams. We got stuck in on for 2+ hours. However, our driver said that it wasn't uncommon for you to spend the night there when it's really bad.

Kenya is a magical place
Overall rating
5/5

I would highly recommend anyone take the time and opportunity to visit Kenya. The land is pristine, the wildlife goes without saying, and the people are genuinely hospitable and excited to welcome visitors. This was a first visit to the continent of Africa and to Kenya, so I had no idea what to expect. What I encountered were truly beautiful people who were eager to welcome, share their stories, share their culture, share their dreams, and share their concerns. The place and the people reminded me of how less can really be more. I was also struck by how embracing of nature the people are and how real the constant struggle between man and nature truly is. I would recommend to anyone to visit Kenya. My only regret was that we did not stay longer.

Kenya should be on your list to visit
Overall rating
5/5

Kenya provides great sceneries, wildlife, beaches and mountains. Nairobi is a bustling city of 5M people. Like all cities, it has some great areas and areas to avoid. We went to South Beach in Mombasa and it's a great place if you want privacy and stay at the beach. It's not as developed as the North Beach and getting in and out of the city is not easy. Even though the great migration was over, wildlife viewing in the Masai Mara was rewarding and we got to see four of the big five! It's a great place for bird watchers too. If you want to feel the exhilaration of seeing untouched land, this is the destination.

This trip was AWESOME!!!!
We started planning our honeymoon in Kenya in March or April. After sending a few quote requests, we immediately decided to go with Let's Venture Africa Safari. After a few messages with Patricia, we knew we were in the best possible hands. Traveling to Kenya was one of our best decisions we have ever made. Kenyans are super friendly, we felt extremely safe, everything was hakuna matata

Beautiful throughout, people and nature
Overall rating
5/5

The part we visited around Mombassa is so beautiful. The old town is certainly worth visiting and at the beaches around you can swim and enjoy the sun.
We went for a safari with Mosaic Tours to Tsavo East and West. A dream come true. We saw the big five close by. It was impressive and beautiful.
Around and in Mombasa you can find nice hotels, cottages and resorts for reasonable prices. It is divers and save.
We also made a 4 day trip tu Lamu Island. A beautiful island with a lot of history. No cars and tuktuks but donkeys and Boda Boda,s. You can make a day trip with an original dhow (original sailingboat). And if you like even catch some fish.
The Kenia that I got to know is worthwhile visiting. The people are so friendly and warm, colourful and helpful. I will certainly come back next year to discover more.
