I was fortunate enough to visit kenya first week of December 2015 for a 9 day holiday.The tour company I booked with online was kenya ideal safaris and they were without a shadow of a doubt a first rate operation.I was taken care of very well on my personalized tour of central and western part of kenya.we started in Nairobi and visited giraffe manner,sheldrick elephants whereby i adopted a young elephant,karen blixen and finished with nairobi museum.they even arranged a hot air balloon ride for me as i requested.The whole experience of being in kenya for the very first time and going with a great tour company made all the difference in the world .Everything was handled to my expectations and my tour guide kizito was very friendly and very knowledgeable.If i ever go to kenya again,i will definitely book with kenya ideal safaris.They demonstrated a very fine level of professionalism throughout my entire holiday.

It seems people are working hard to make the safari business benefiting the wildlife and the local people.

This was our first safari so it is difficult to speak with any genuine authority. That said, from our experiences, Kenya appears to have a decent infrastructure to cater to a wide range of safari travellers. Security was a concern, but we never felt threatened during our stay.

My third trip there and for me it is the ONLY place I would consider. Not only for the wildlife but for the wonderful people we met along the way. And the lifetime friends I have now.

Scenic beauty and bush vibe suffered a bit from the Nairobi skyline visible throughout much of the Park.

Kenya has some of the greatest bird diversity in Africa, and it was a wild place to visit. In some respects, bird and mammal diversity is restricted to the large parks, or at least the regularly birded destinations. We tried to visit places off the beaten path, but we had a hard time stopping on the side of the road without attracting a scene. The human population is blosoming, and the countryside and many parks are suffering from people trying to support their families. If you stick to your itinerary with a tour group, you'll be exposed to some of the best parks Kenya has to offer.

Great service from Bushtroop safaris
Overall rating
4/5

Hello Everyone,

We just came back from Kenya and would like to share our experience.
We did 3 days/2 nights safari in Masaai Mara organised by Bushtroop Safaris. Jacqueline, the Sales Manager, was super helpful and responded to all our queries prior to booking our trip and also she looked after us once we landed in Kenya from the beginning to the very end. Our safari driver Isaac was knowledgeable and had a lot of experience.
We stayed in Lenchada Tourist Camp, situated just outside the Park gates. Safe, clean, surroundings very well kept with pleasant staff. Each tent has a bathroom and shower with hot water included inside as well as a double bed if required. Food was also tasty (if you have any special requirements you can notify the camp and they try their best to accommodate it). Drinking water is normally supplied by the Safari Agent but in case you run out, there is a bar (beer costs Kes250). In my opinion Lenchada has a higher standard than Enchoro Wildlife Camp that I stayed in last time I went to Mara.
One of the highlights for me was falling asleep in the tent being surrounded by the nature that comes alive at night, hearing all the animals outside is very special.
Our safari included a pick up from the airport, drive to Mara with the lunch on the way, photo stop at Great Rift Valley, afternoon game drive in the Park, all day game drive the next day (7am – 4:30pm), time at our leisure or optional Masaai Mara village tour, morning game drive on the last day, all meals and water while on safari and drop off at Nairobi or airport,
We saw a lot of animals including zebras, antelopes, elephants, lions and 02 beautiful families of cheetahs. We even witnessed the attempt of hunting. Truly amazing.
We definitely recommend the Bushtroop Safaris as they are very reliable and affordable. They have delivered all what they have promised and made our safari very memorable. Thank you.

Best regards
