Amazing
We had a 12 day safari visiting 5 different parks. The whole experience was absolutely amazing. Our trip was arranged by apodiformes and they were brilliant at organizing exactly what we wanted. Our driver Kevin made our experience truly magnificent making sure we saw everything. It was wonderful to see the animals in their natural habitat and so many different species. My husband is also very interested in birds and Kevin was very good at spotting birds and identifying them. All the parks were wonderful and each offered something different. The one not to miss would have to be Maasai Mara where the abundance and variety of animals was truly amazing. It was also great to meet the Maasai people who still live in a very traditional way.

Beautiful country, incredible wildlife, wonderful people
I've travelled to Kenya a few times over the years - first as a backpacker 20 years ago, more recently for safaris, as wildlife photography is one of my passions. My most recent trip was with my 12-year-old son in October 2023. We travelled to Buffalo Springs and Samburu National Reserves in central Kenya, Lake Nakuru to the south-west and finally down to the Masai Mara where Kenya meets the Tanzanian border. We travelled with Spirit of Kenya Safaris and had an incredible trip. Kenya is a spectacular, varied country, with extraordinary wildlife, which is why I keep coming back. I'm already planning the next trip. You can see photos from the last one here: https://jameshopkirk.com/return-to-kenya

Absolutely breathtaking
I absolutely recommend Kameraz as a tour company and in particular Bernard as a guide. His knowledge of the parks and animal behaviour was extraordinary. We have wonderful accommodation, excellent facilities and locations. There was a bit of a drive between Lake Nakuru and Amboseli Park, but I would not have missed either so it was a small price to pay.
Kenyans are super friendly and at no time did we feel unsafe- Bernard took such care of us.
This is first safari I had been on, but it is definitely not the last. Next time I will take my children (16yo)- some of the days are long so not sure littler ones would cope.

Everything I hoped it would be
I travelled to Kenya and did a 4 day safari on a budget. I really can't see how my animal experiences were in any way different to those spending many thousands of pounds. The Masai Mara is beautiful. Sometimes the immense open landscape just takes your breath away. I was worried that perhaps it might feel like a large zoo, but no, these animals are living their normal lives, the only caveat to that is that of course they have become fairly accustomed to safari tour trucks... meaning they don't run away. You do get to see them in their natural habitats.
Nairobi itself isn't immensely attractive but its nice enough. Whatever extra tour or additional visit you require... there will be someone who can arrange it. All standards of accommodation are available. Even the budget elements are completely fine and dare I say, possibly add to the adventure.

It was like the garden of Eden
This has been a trip in the making prior to Covid so I wondered if it would ever eventuate. To say I was excited to reach Kenya was a big understatement!
I had such high expectations for my trip but was still completely blown away.
Kenya is so beautiful and to see the Maasai Mara was incredible. We saw so much wildlife. We loved our stay at Mara Eden and will always dream of going back there.
Jane our tour operator was so lovely to work with and so accommodating. Making sure we safely got to our destinations coming all the way from Africa.
This trip will be in heart forever
Peaceful
I visited Kenya with my newly married wife. And it really helped me rejuvenate and feel refreshed. The food , air and nature really helps if you have a hectic life and live in the city.

Developing country with excellent nature
Fantastic country with a lot of things to do and see. Weather was excellent, service at hotel as well as on all trips we enroled was professional. Wide variety of cultures, so different from the European ones makes the travelling experiences even stronger. Highly recommended to visit Kenya for those, who has never been there before.

Unforgettable journey and I love it!
My travel agent guide is excellent, and his name is Kikitu from the Jockytours. He has a good personality, and he is very humorous and experienced. He took us to see so many as animals. The scenery along the way was beautiful and stunning, and it was an unforgettable trip! I really enjoy it!

Spectacular wildlife and varied scenery
We had a great time. 7 days Safari and it was so worth it. We went to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. All of them totally different and spectacular in their own right.
Chilling at the coast afterwards was just the thing after the busy Safari and early mornings.
