Kenya Travel Guide

Incredible wildlife

Wildlife, scenery was amazing. The way of life is quite different in Kenya compared to North America, infrastructure often not great but manageable. Food was a lot of fresh fruits and veggies, less meat. Not very much variety in cooking. The people are always nice and helpful (and always selling some souvenir haha), and many people spoke some English which was helpful. Also it is pretty cheap to live/eat/travel in Kenya. I recommend going there for safari and some cultural exploring.

Safari in Kenya is a Perfect experience with Safaribookings.com and Buymoreadventures travel agency.

Kenya is a wonderful country and safaris was highlight of our tour. We saw may animals in Masai Mara, in Amboseli, in Nakuru and in Naivasha. We made Thomson falls and equator tour they were great too. So i thank to buymoreadventures for their great organisation. Ms.Nadzua Matara is a perfect planner and adviser. Everything was on time and very smooth by her organisation. Our transportation was great too. Charles from buymoreadventures is a perfect driver and guide, he showed many animals to us in Amboseli and in Nakuru and we always felt safe with him. Our other driver guide Ben was perfect person too, and we saw many animals in Masai Mara with him. We were lucky, Weather was so nice for safari, our accomodations was good too, tent camps were good, food was good. I advise all my friends to go to Kenya and i advise them to take their tours with buymoreadventures. Thanks to all staff of buymoreadventures agency and also Kenyan people, they are always friendly and nice. And i want to thank safaribookings.com, because i found the agency by them.

Awesome nature

I had 7 day safari in Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. I did´n spend time in towns, but I loved the nature. Wildlife and scenery was awesome. It was dry in march, but there was also some green. Other time (after rain season) there would be greener. I saw a lot of animals and beautiful places even it was low-season.

People were friendly and the food was good. The accommodations had a good and friendly service. Our guide was exellent.
Our safari group was very lucky. We saw leopard, big group of elephants (about 300) on the way to "Amboseli spa", clear Kilimanjaro for two days, lions at close and 6 lions in Amboseli. I enjoyed everything I saw. Because of my great experience, I´m planning a new trip to Kenya.

However, I noticed that there are a lot of debris along the way. I therefore hope that the waste bins will be added. Sometimes it was difficult for me to find garbage containers because I don't want to waste the environment.

Wonderful experience

I took a 3-day safari with two other people. .Benson, our driver, was knowledgeable and friendly. He was patient about helping us get pictures, and he was great at finding game for us to view and photograph. We were able to see a great variety of game and got some wonderful photos. The Land Rover was fairly comfortable, and the fact that the top raised up helped us get better views. We stayed at the Ashnil Mara Camp, which was very comfortable and had very good food. We took the optional hot air balloon ride, which was well worth it. In preparation for the safari, we had a lot of questions, and Levis from Hallmark always answered them promptly. All three of us loved the whole experience.

Absolutely fabulous. Good for the soul!

Kenya is a beautiful country. Everything from the scenery to the diversity of landscapes. Most of all the Kenyans make this a must visit destination. They are warm welcoming and want to help.
Our safari was incredible. The accommodation at the Entim Mara was beautiful. Our safari guide was so knowledgeable. The space, the silence and experience of seeing wildlife on the Mara plains is unique.

It is full of wildlife. A first timer will surely get overwhelmed with sheer numbers.

Exceptional all round experience !! Not to be missed !!

Alliance Safari

Elizabeth was super helpful and our guide David was engaging ,informative ,and helped make our trip the best !!

AN UNFORGETTABLE AND AMAZING EXPERIENCE

If you are hasitating in visiting Kenya on february, do not do it! The weather is perfect, not to hot, with no rain. We could see the big five in the fisrt day, and a lot of other animals. The Masai Mara is wonderful, with great sightseeings, it is not to crowded. All the hotels are really great, the service is impecable, you can see everyone with a smile in their faces. Our tour was wonderful beginning with our guide, that has a lot of experience, always taking care of us, the transport is quite good, we had the car for ourselves. The food is very good.

Amazing safari with Classic Journeys

We were 4 persons and we spent 4 days in Masai Mara. All the 4 days were amazing and the safari agency (Classic Journeys) did a great job organizing for us a unbelievable moment. Everything was better than our expectations: the accommodation , the food and of course the guide. Everyday day of game driving was a surprise and we had the impression being in the scenery of Lion King.
Highly recommended.

Utterly breathtaking. The awe and beauty of Kenya is nothing you can prepare for - unforgettable!

Our safari in Kenya was the best trip we have ever been on. Peter, our guide, was phenomenal. His knowledge, candor and friendship made our trip so memorable - we will be forever grateful for the depth of knowledge of Kenya's wildlife, cultures and history he imparted on us. (If you want a truly immersive safari - request Peter from Beacon Safaris!!). Our trip was a mere 6 nights, 7 days. For our first safari it was satiating. And now we want to go back for more! We were pleasantly surprised that mid-February blessed us with amazing weather - and honestly not as packed by tourists as the 'heavy season' suggested. We spent two days in the Maasai Mara and witnessed 4 of the Big 5 in those days and many more wildlife just in our first hour on the evening drive! We also enjoyed a sunrise hot air balloon ride (which was absolutely worth it!!) and it included a lovely brunch in the savannah afterwards. The Maasai was the best place to start as not only did we see so many animals up close, but we were in a tented camp where we woke up to warm coffee and the sounds of the hyena, zebra, lions and elephants. We also met the Masai Warriors and Masai ladies - an unforgettable cultural experience that taught us we have so much to learn from all life in Africa and the resiliency of their cultures. The middle 2 days of our trip was spent passing through Lake Naivasha (for a fun boat ride and break from the driving) and then heading up to Lake Nakuru for an evening drive and night at the Sopa Lodge (which was absolutely stunning with its views and accomodations. we should have stayed longer!). We saw both white and black rhino in Lake Nakuru not to mention so many bird species at both lakes. We ended our trip at Amboseli Park with Mt. Kilimanjaro overlooking the ecosystem. On our way down we passed through an amazing carpentry shop and walked out with quite a few souvenirs. We can't thank Peter enough for showing us some of the BEST craftsmanship Kenya has to offer. Arriving at Amboseli Park was a dream. We didn't think the trip could get any better but we were wrong. The elephants, hundreds of elephants, greeted us after a few kms into the park. The grassland, swamps and lake were thriving with life. We encountered so many incredible wildlife moments from baby elephants playing to thousands of flamingos to wildebeest giving birth! it was truly a sight to see all with the magnificent Mt. Kilimanjaro as the backdrop. As if this wasn't long enough... there is even more and it just takes going to get the full experience. We highly recommend Beacon Safaris and Peter as your guide! Whether you are travelling with friends, going on your honeymoon or just on an adventurous trip - this is by far the best deal we found. Every accommodation, meal and activity was planned with this team and we could not be more happy with the price for such an incredible experience.
