Amazing Country
We had an amazing tour guide called Isaac. He showed us the big 5 within 2 days and many more animals. There is no country as beautiful as Kenya. The Animals, Scenery, Coast and National Parks are all absolutely wonderful.

Wonderful place for safaris and to visit Nairobi, a developing African city.
We loved our visit to Kenya. Nairobi was a bustling city with many wonderful places to visit. The Bomas of Kenya was a great event showcasing traditional African dances. We were able to view the city from the top of the convention center and the restaurants where we ate were great. Taking an Uber around Nairobi was much cheaper than in the US, so we did not hesitate to call for one.
The safari in the Maasai Mara was outstanding. We stayed at the Enkorok Mara Camp. The accommodations were like glamorous camping. We were in two person cabins with our own bathrooms. The large dining room was very nice and the food, a mixture of African and American, was well worth the cost. We went on the Safari with our travel guide Michael. He was great. He was very accommodating and very knowledgeable.
We were able to see a large variety of animals and take some wonderful pictures and videos. I would highly recommend Wasili Kenya Safaris.

full of life
We recently had a 10 day safaris and a week on the coast. Everyone is so friendly and made us very welcome.
Despite the often negative vibes we see on TV about the peril of animals in africa we we were so please to see the national parks and, their inhabitants thriving. We used Kamiraz of Africa and would recommend their services, efficient, friendly, helpful and good value.
The Hotels and lodges we stayed in we amazing, we felt truly spoiled, amazing food and always greeted with a smile.

Great safari trip with Spirit of Kenya
Travelled from Nairobi to Ol Pejeta, Lake Navaisha, Masai Mara then on to the coast. Excellent safari trip, very pleased we went to all the places since you cannot see everything in one park. You have to travel. Spirit of Kenya excellent: on time, very knowledgeable about the parks, wildlife and where to go. Accommodations were excellent and some of the best food we have ever had at the Mara Bush Camp. All people we met were enthusiastic, welcoming and went out of hteir way to make our holiday complete. Thank you all!

Beautiful scenery and kind people
Kenya has some wonderful scenery. Especially in the Masai Mara, the views are endless and unforgettable. Sightings of animals are common, I was able to spot cheetahs, lions, giraffes, elephants, and many zebras. In lake Nakuru they have a large rhino population. I managed to see some white rhinos from close by. The quality of tourism accommodations and services in general, is very high. I booked my tour with Africa Marvel Tours, I very much recommend booking with them. I did a solo trip, and would also recommend that.

Wild
Amazing experience in the nationals parks, we saw a lot of wildlife and learn through our guide jimmi from lenchada tours a lot about kenyan culture and biodiversity. The tours are all very similar in all agencies and the tours and places where we stay as accommodation had all requirements and good food in all of them and some have even pool to enjoy. I didn't feel unsafe in nairobi however always be cautious as every big city and when you go to shop people will always try to sell you something so be mindfull as they initially offer an elevate price but this can be negotiable in all places. I went in july so the weather was great as was chill in the morning and not very hot in afternoon. In general was a great experience recomended for solo travellers or in family. You will definitely enjoy just always keep your guide about your itinerary as when you take share tours people may have different ones.

Beautiful landscape, nice food, the people we meet were very friendly
We had a very good time in our safari. We went in Ambosoli and viewed lots of animals and the lodge (Elewana Tortillis) was a very good place to be. In Masai Mara we stayed in Emboo River Camp who's the best place we had in this safari. They have a very good sustainable concept with their own energy production, rational use of water for their garden and recovery of kitchen waste to produce biogas. In the Masai Mara we also had the chance to see wild animals up close, including a cheetah that hunted a tompson gazelle. During our five-day safari, we saw elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, hippos, lions, crocodiles, a cheetah and many other wild animals and birds. We highly recommend Betty and Amos for organising a safari. It's the first time we've had such a warm welcome. Their driver Ruben and their French guide Ezechiel also accompanied us very warmly during our stay. Thank you for the perfect organisation!

An incredible experience that all travellers should experience
A beautiful country with amazing scenery. I went with my family and it was an eye opening experience for the whole family. I think after this trip we respect nature more and other cultures.

Incredible hospitality, incredible views.
As a whole, Kenya was an incredible experience. Everyone we met, from strangers to lodge workers, was very friendly and accommodating and went above and beyond. Driving through the parks was a surreal experience and we felt fortunate to be there and witness the animals in their element as well as just the amazing landscapes. We never felt unsafe at all, just welcomed. Highly recommend.
