Brilliant, better then I expected.
Overall rating
5/5

Food and accommodation was amazing. Wildlife, scenery outstanding, much better I expected. We had excellent weather. This was well organised safari, the only thing that did not go well, was that our driver had to leave us half through the safari due to a emergency, and communication was poor. This needs to be improved for the future.

Best Holiday so far!

Jambo!

We had an absolutely amazing experience in Kenya/Africa with Beacon Safaris.

We booked a 6-day safari tour with them for Masai Mara - Lake Nakuru - Amboseli. Organizing the trip with Robert was a breeze. No delays in response. Very courteous. He arranged a private tour for just me and my girlfriend and provided us with the required upgrades for a more comfortable and exciting experience which is exactly what we wanted. He upgraded our vehicle into a 4x4 free of charge - it was my birthday holiday after all. Many thanks to Robert and the Beacon Safaris team!

Daniel, our guide, was the best. He was one of the friendliest, charming, and good-natured people we ever had the pleasure to meet, and having him is our guide for almost a week just made the total experience the best among all of our holidays ever. He answered every question we had, and he went out of his way to make our Safari experience the best it could be - he always made sure we get to see what we wanted to see and surely he did! Every day of our safari tour always ended in a memorable experience and we owe it all to him. He was always in a fantastically upbeat mood, was always ready for a great conversation, and seemed to greatly value his job. All hands down to Daniel!

Daniel definitely deserves commendation - even a raise/promotion if possibe! He was just an absolute joy to be with and very passionate about his job. We could not recommend anyone else but him! If we ever come back, or if our friends decide to go for a safari in Kenya, we will definitely request and recommend Daniel!

Overall, Beacon Safaris is really the number one choice you should make when you decide to go for that African safari holiday! They're excellent, professional, and extremely wonderful to associate with. Thank you Daniel, Robert, and everyone at Beacon Safaris for making this the trip of our dreams. A big ASANTE SANA to all off you!

Choose Africa, choose Kenya, choose Beacon Safaris!

Amazing
Overall rating
5/5

This is my first trip to Kenya . Beside attending training in Nairobi, i took safaris trip in Nairobi National Park and Maasai Mara . To make our trip easier, we should have Mpesa or paypal to Kenya, thankfully i have local friends to help me pay my entry fee to Nairobi park using his Mpesa and contact my agent trip to Maasai Mara for asking payment by cash.
Overall the trip is so fun, the agent very communicative and helpful, the weather is no nice, my tent is so neat and clean, and the best one is Maasai Mara. The Mara is so magical place, better than Nairobi National but if you just have short trip to Kenya, National Park is the best place, because it is nearby capital of Kenya.
Food, i am not into with kind of food there.. but acceptable

Relaxing experience out of the main tracks
Overall rating
5/5

Very good and enjoyable experience in less famous and touristic parks.
Food and accommodation were outstanding as so as our guide/driver who drove very safe and ready to satisfy all our needs all the time.
Wildlife was not so abundant and easy to spot as in Masai Mara but we were aware of this so this was not a delusion.
Weather was also good, with occasional evening or night rains.

Overall rating
5/5

We spent 7 days on tour to several parks, all managed by Baboon Budget Safari. Our journey started few months before when booking and discussing the details with provider - all clear and simple, they were even able to buy us extra train tickets for next travel etc (thanks Susan!). The real start was from Nairobi where our driver Anthony picked us up at hotel and we continued with 6 other guys, together we made a great group and enjoyed a lot of fun. Our path was through Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli, all of them were very exciting and strongly variable from flora and also fauna point of view. Anthony was a great driver with strong passion for his work - skilled in all aspects from crazy driving to spotting the smallest birds and also very friendly to all our requirements and silly questions.

We enjoyed pretty much everything of this route even though not all is easy - you have to expect waking up very early, eating simple meals, spending most of your day in a van and staying in simple tents where you hear wildness roaring all night. But once you take all of these "struggles" as a starting point for a breathtaking experience (as we did) you will love it all.

One of the best countries for wildlife viewing. The sheer expanse of Maasai Mara is breathtaking. The number of animals is simply mind numbing
