The people of Kenya are very welcoming and the knowledge of the guides makes to trip awe inspiring
We absolutely loved our time in Kenya. We were welcomed from the moment we got there. Our guide Daniel was absolutely amazing and extremely knowledgeable. We saw pretty much every animal you would wish to see on a safari. All the guides in the park work together to make sure that all the tourists get the most out of their safari. One of the best experiences of my life.

Kenya is like a beautiful mix of different cultures, amazing scenery, and awesome wildlife.
My trip to Kenya was an absolute delight! It's a place where every day brings a new adventure. The Maasai Mara safari was a standout experience. It's like being in a live-action nature documentary. The parks are not just about the animals; they're about immersing yourself in the untamed beauty of Africa.
Nairobi, with its bustling streets and friendly locals, added another layer to the experience. The blend of urban life and natural wonders is something unique to Kenya. The people I met were incredibly welcoming, making me feel at home from day one. The weather was perfect for exploring, and I always felt safe and looked after. For anyone looking for a mix of culture, adventure, and natural beauty, Kenya is the place to be!

Beautiful country, fantastic people and spectacular animals
We had a great time! Thoroughly enjoyed the people, the parks, the mini-safaris and the country. Saw some spectacular animals - elephants, cheetah, leopard, lion, giraffe, zebras, hippos, rhinos, crocs and too many antelope and birds to count. The weather was great. Nairobi and Mombasa were fun. We definitely are going back!

A beautiful country with even more gracious people
Our entire Kenyan trip was perfect from start to finish. Our safari guide, Soloman was knowledgeable, considerate, kind and made our entire experience above and beyond comfortable! We visited three National Parks (Masai Mara, Amboseli and Lake Nakuru) with lots of road traveling - We saw hundreds of animals along every stop and got to see tons of Kenyans countryside. Soloman shared his knowledge of the parks, Kenyan culture, animals and he went out of his way to make sure we found the best that nature/wildlife had to offer on the day. We learned so much about the native species, birds, and animals because of his knowledge. We left with full hearts and full bellies every single day. We are forever grateful we booked with Jocky tours and were fortunate to have Solomon as our guide.

Very memorable experience warm people, (25-27C), although it rained a bit, it didn't spoil our fun!
Memorable experience to celebrate 60th birthday. Great support provided by Ms Filipa Melo in customizing the Safari offered by Spirit of Kenya to our taste. Our guides Mr. Moses and Mr Charles were knowledgeable and friendly. The Itenary was great however, we would have preferred the wildlife walk through the Island on Lake Naivasha instead of just a boat ride round it. It would have been nice to have had that option.
Lots to see at the various parks, we managed to see the BIG 5, the only elusive animal was the leopard; hippos we saw at a distance (good cos they can be dangerous).
The lodges and camps were mostly clean, all well laid out, friendly staff, mosquito nets and sprays provided, always felt safe.
From catering point of view, we were never hungry for long! Managed to cater for our lactose- and gluten-free needs
No problems with the minivan which picked us up from the airport and visited Nairobi tourist sites. Land cruiser was generally clean but leaked when it rained heavily. Otherwise in good condition. Bottled water provided every day.
Overall 5* Safari experience

Full of life
It was an amazing trip to Kenya. The people, the warmth, the nature and the life. It is indeed where life thrives. The wide savannahs, the lions roar, the game drives, the beach with clear water and the constant feeling of being alive. Kenya has it all.
