That was my favorite trip ever
Daniel was an incredible guide, and showed us an unbelievable week. My partner and I spent seven days on safari. We went to Masa Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboselli and Tsavo East. We saw 4/5 of the big five and so many other animals. The camps were modest, but nice. They all had a very warm vibe. The Red Elephant Lodge was amazing. Daniel could not have been a better guide. When we return we will definitely use him as our guide again.

Great experience with one exception
I had a great time on my trip to Kenya. I will start with the negative and then go with the positive. I became dehydrated on the trip. The first day we travelled over 8 hours and were not given any water, nor were we allowed to buy any. We made several stops, one over 30 minutes, and our driver just talked to people. Nothing, just chilling with his friends. Then we ask to get out and he refused to get out. Then would not give us any water. Being someone how has leg cramps and an athlete, water is VERY important. It was told on our trip that all water would be given to is. It was not. Also on the last two days we were not given any water either. So three dya we went without any water in the hot place. We had to buy the water, after we were told it would be free.
That part aside, it was one of the best vacations of my life. I enjoy seeing the animals and I was able to see all of the big five except for the leopard. The animals were very fun and it was good to experience life in Africa. I never knew there were that many animals out there. We also, one day, saw the elusive and highly endangered black rhino. Our guide told us that he usually only sees them about every 100 days. So that was super exciting. Being a teacher, I have to travel cheap and this was a great value for the trip. The food was the same every meal, but there was plenty of it. The places you stay are good, if you remember it is a budget experience. I did not mind it at all and met some really cool people. I used Safari Line Defender and Rose was the one who set it up for me. It was all very professional.....with the exception of the water.
I would highly suggest using this safari Line Defender and work with Rose. It was a GREAT time!!

The Masai Mara was great!
I truly enjoyed my time at the Masai Mara Reserve. From the moment I arrived, the employees at the lodge were welcoming and accomodating. It felt like we were one big family and we got to know the waiters and workers in the restaurant very well. Our guide, Edward, was also great. He really helped us understand the Masai Mara and went out of his way to help us find the Big 5. We saw three of the five and lots of other animals. I would highly recommend this company. They took care of everything from A to Z.

Wonderful
We have completed an amazing safari and holiday with the help of Lisa and our travel guide Dan. Dan has a very good knowledge about the nature and the habitat also very good driver. He did his best for us. We have visited all 5 big, it was amazing experience for us. The choice of accomodation points that they offer also was so good and comfortable. Lisa from King Tomondo who helped us to organize a very best plan for a safari was very helpful and experienced person. She helped in every point that we need. We want to thank all King Tomondo crew for a great unforgetable Kenya Safari tour. Hope to meet again.

Amazing experience!
We visited Kenya in February and stayed 5 days in Nairobi, 3 days in MasaiMara and 5 days in Mombasa.
In Masai Mara we had a great safari which was full of adventure. We had not even entered the MasaiMara when we saw giraffes, zebras and smaller animals. At the MasaiMara we saw 4 animals from the big five ( did not catch a rhino but some people from our crew went to lake nakuru and there were plenty of rhinos).
Weather was really nice. It did not rain at all.
Our accomodation was in place near the MasaiMara village and 3 minute drive from the main entrance to MasaiMara.
Our guide was Amazing. One day when we came from safari and drove by a little village where we saw a discotec we asked if it might be possible to visit it at the evening. The place where we stayed in cooperation with our guide organized a local guy from the traditional MasaiMara village to be our accompanist. It was the cherry on the cake. Locals showed us how to dance and overall it was a really nice ending for our safari.

Dream come true!!! Unforgettable experience!!!
Our safari is finished and I have to say, everything was perfect and exactly as described on Safaribookings. We did 4 days: Tsavo East and Amboseli with Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris. Our driver Mutemi arrived right on time and from the outset was friendly, professional and informative. He spoke English very well and we have learned so much from him about the animals, nature and culture! We spotted a lot of animals within the first hour and also during the other game drives. Our expectations have certainly been exceeded. The quality of the accommodation and food varied and was what we had expected or better. We recommend this webpage, Bienvenido tour operator and Kenya one hundred percent.

Safari and campsite was an excellent and once in a lifetime experience
Overall everything in Kenya was wonderful, impressive wildlife, beautiful scenery, good weather, nice accommodations, good food, very friendly safari guide. The only downturn is that traffic is bad and hectic.

Great Safari with Mufasa!
I personally did not arrange this Safari in Kenya for myself, but this was a gift that my wife and I gave to our parents after our marriage.
I dealt and agreed all details with Lewis from Mufasa: he was super professional and precise. I asked lots of questions and made some adjustments to the original plan he proposed me: everything has been friendly and professionally agreed before our parents' departure. Lewis arranged also to reserve an Italian-speaker guide for the whole trip! That was a great added value to our parents trip.
The Safari itself was class, according to our parents' feedback! Our parents and the guide got along very well since the beginning and the trip plan has been carefully respected. We arranged a 10-days safari across Amboseli NP, Aberdare, Samburu NP, Lake Nakuru NP and Maasai Mara NP. Lots of wildlife has been spotted (elephants, rhynos, giraffes, lions and cheetas feasting around fresh carcasses, despite no leopard shown during the 10 days). Weather was great and accomodations were above expectations, considering a mid-sized budget.
I would then reccomend:
- a safari in Kenya in February across the 5 parks
- Mufasa as a trusted Safari company for your Safari.
Cheers!

Amazing experience, would recommend Explorer Kenya
Was a little sceptical when booking this trip but everything organised was perfect. We decided to go for the 4x4 private tour. Highly recommend a 4x4 so you dont get stuck in any ditches.
We started in Nairobi then onto Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo west, Tsavo east then ended at Mombasa beach.
The road trip was very long but each park offered very different scenery and animals. So if you dont mind long car journeys then this would be a great trip.
Masai mara was my favourite park as we saw the most range of wildlife along with stepping into the Serengeti (as they boarder eachother). Second was Amboseli as you get to see amazing elephants and the view of Mount Kilimanjaro was spectacular! Tsavo east was very much like the Masai mara.
Our tour guide Simon was very knowledgeable and enjoyed his company. He was very flexible in what we wanted to see and do. 5* to his driving and photography skills! Always making sure we got the best photos of the animals and ensuring he is parked in the right angle for us to capture every moment. Thank you!!
Kenya is beautiful and highly recommend going on a safari with Explorer Kenya.
