Kenya has incredible wildlife, very nice people and a good climate
We went on a 5-days safari in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. We got to sees all the "Big 5" and lots of other animals. Incredible to sit on the terrace by the lodge outside Masai Mara, and watch a hippo in the water. The temperature was nice, not too hot, and quite chilly in the evening and morning, so bring a jacket. We really loved the walking safari on Crescent Island, it was nice with a boat trip and lovely to walk among all the animals. Nice to meet and learn about the Masai people, impressive to sees their traditional lifestyle and cultural expressions.
We loved the safari with Spirit of Kenya!

Amazing trip in Tsavo
The tour organised through Safari bookings, with Ultimate Africa Expeditions, has been perfect. Super organisation, very kind and efficient driver, great places. The second hotel (Zoi) was not that great (food very average, bed uncomfortable, wifi basically non existent) but the water pond worth the place. We even saw a fight between a lioness and a hippo. Impressive.
I can only recommend the tour and both teams, Safari bookings and ultimate Africa Expeditions, very professional.
Attention, the Masai village should remain an option, it is not something I enjoyed at all, far too commercial and new groups every 30 minutes.

Kenya is a diverse and vibrant country in East Africa, known for its stunning landscapes, rich wild
We were on safari in Kenya, known for its incredible landscapes, rich wildlife and vibrant culture. We spent 2 days in the Masai Mara National Reserve, one of the most famous reserves in the world. It is famous for the annual Great Migration and we were able to see wildebeest, zebra, gazelle and tons of bird species. We were also lucky enough to see four of the Big Five: lions, rhinos, elephants and buffalo.
We also enjoyed 2 days in Amboseli National Park, right at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. It is famous for its large herds of elephants and a wide variety of birds. We also visited Lake Naivasha, which is home to a large population of hippos, and saw them relaxing in the water.
Our tour operator, Camptrek Safaris, was fantastic. They were super professional from the moment we contacted them to request a custom tour and throughout our stay in Kenya, they made our trip amazing.

Breathtaking experience to be experienced by all.
I absolutely loved everything about my visit to Kenya. The food, atmosphere, people, culture, and animals were amazing. I felt welcomed in every part of the country. The safari was life altering. To be up close to the animals in their habitat was nerve wracking and exhilarating. I went on safari with Tall Maasai Safari. Initially I had concerns because of the faulty communication however in the end it all worked out. My guide Patrick was amazing and I would definitely recommend asking for him as a guide. He was informative and knew where to find all the animals. I saw almost all of the big five except a rhino. We saw lions stalking, attacking, eating and mating! WOW! I am definitely returning to Kenya.

Absolutely awe inspiring!
Kenya - Our driver (Charles with BuyMore Adventures) asked us “do you know why it is called a game drive? It’s because sometimes you see the animals and sometimes you dont!” From day 1 we were winners. We got lucky enough to see the “Big 5” in our first 3 days. Every day was better than the one before. We almost got charged by an elephant (he wasn’t all that serious), told off by a black rhino (he was serious), saw a “Tusker” in Amboseli (tusks almost touching the ground). We were too early for the migration but the animals were starting to gather and the difference between day 1 and day 8 was truly amazing. The scenery varies from wide open spaces to almost woodsy, some was lush/green and other areas more desert like. Everyone was so very nice and we loved going to Samburu village and meeting everyone. We also got some really beautiful bead work. Take some candies for the local children who wave to you as you drive by. Before you close your suitcase - take half of the stuff out and leave it. It was our 1st visit to Kenya - but it wont be our last!

Best month for Maasai Mara is July and August
In order to catch the great migration and the crossing of the Mara river, the time to visit Kenya is July and August. Its peak season so book 6-months to a year early. You will see such a sheer volume of wildebeest and other grazing mammals as will leave you wondering 'how is it possible'? And of course there are plenty of carnivores following the herd...
