Wonderful adventure

5/5

Very professional and caring guide (Peter). The 3 big parks (Amboseli, Nakuru & Masai Mara) are an excellent choice with all the wildlife you can expect. Very good value for money. Would recommend.

My trip was a 3days 2nights in maasai mara. I loved everything starting from the time keeping and the mode of transport. Lydiah came in the morning before we started our safari and interacted with us which is great. Her driver is awesome and experienced too. We were able to enjoy the safari unit forgetting the awesome accommodation she recommended. I was very happy. I am looking forward to book another trip with ladina travel safaris because they are the best.

Easy, nice, reliable but greedy

3/5

The communication with Lydia was very easy and fast. She is very responsive and reliable. Just make sure she understands what you write, because sometimes she understands the exact opposite. She is very a very nice person, so no problems there, it was great and we got what was described, even if it was the wrong order. Days 5 and 4 were switched :-)

But (prices according to October 2023):
1. She charges 30$ each for the Massai village although it only costs 10$.
2. She charges 35$ for the boat tour although it only costs 20$.
3. She wanted 25$ for a taxi from our hotel to the airport although with bolt it costed less than 6$.
4. She wanted from us 80$ more (which she didn't take in the end) because the gas prices went high.

I would have no problems with her charging a bit extra, but this, for people who are on a budget, is not proper and is strictly greedy. So more like 3.5 stars instead of 5.

As for the tour:
1. Don't pay for the extra activities ahead. This way you can see what the activity is all about and if it is worth it for you.
2. For Massai Mara, I think it does make a big difference if you get there before or during the migration. Else (like us) you have more than 1 million zebras and wild beasts (and flamingos in Lake Nacuro) less.
3. The Massai village was nice and you get a good feeling thinking you help them by donating your money. You can also buy some souvenirs at the market in the end of the tour they give you.
4. The boat tour IMHO has nothing to offer and is not worth it. There are a few hippos under water, a few birds and sea eagles, but that's about it. If the sun is out, it means sitting in a scorching heat for an hour or more.
5. I found the Amboseli Camp great, but the morning tour there is a tourist trap. 10$ for a Massai guy taking you for a 4km walk through dusty ground with a promise of maybe seeing some animals and ending up seeing a few giraffes. Better get 2 more hours of sleep and save your money. And better yet, take a tour through one of the sanctuaries around Lake Navashi, where you really actually walk next to the animals. Many different ones.
6. I think the Amboseli reserve is actually nicer in the dry season, because many animals are concentrated in areas around the swamp. There is also a great variety of birds there regardless of the season.
7. Hopefully you get a good driver that will no where to go so you can see interesting animals, will turn off the radio when watching them and will give you a good angle for your camera. If not, don't be shy to ask for it.

All in all it was much fun and full of very nice people.
If you are booking only the safari, consider booking or going afterwards to Mombasa or somewhere along the coast.

I hope I helped somebody with this review.
Take care and have fun.

You get what you pay for

3/5

Me and my friend went for the month of September. We chose the budget safari. They provided with lodging and food. The lodging at times did not have hot water, Wi-Fi, or lights. The food that they served were repetitive and nothing to really write home about. I was hoping to get some food that I could say was Kenyan so I could learn about the culture, but it was nothing like that. Like for example, we got mashed potatoes, some vegetables and pasta.

I must say though that the driver was very good and that we get to see a lot of animals. We’ve seen the Big Five. He was accommodating.

Everyone was very nice to us including drivers from other safari. Although, at the end of the Safari, there was a driver from another group that came to our group and was verbally aggressive and disrespectful. And to top it off? We didn’t get to finish the Safari with our driver. It left a bad taste in the mouth.

5/5

I decided to go to Africa and I researched a lot , there is a lot to Choose from I decided to see the wilderbeast migration july aug on a modest budget . I picked out ladina travel as the most appealing option and was not disappointed from the initial inquiry Lydia picked an iteranery for me which was perfect and well executed she kept me informed every step of the way by WhatsApp and even changed things for me on the fly. Truely excellent service . She was always there online when I needed her and never let me down
Travelling so far from home ( Australia) it has been a godsend for my travel to have come across Lydia
I highly recommend her to you
Thankyou for a wonderful trip Lydiah I will never forget it
