Very good guide but lack of organisation and support by operator
2/5

First of all: Our guide was friendly and competent, so we spend a pleasant time.

Now the reason for the two star review:

- First of all, we did two gamedrives less compared to the itinerary. This was strongly recommended by the guide since the location of the lodges would not allow to complete the program as it was foreseen by the operator.

- Second, the transport to our hotel after completion of the tour was organized poorly and took several hours more than necessary. After suggesting an alternative transport I was offered transfer by car for 230 US Dollars, more than three times the price charged by our hotel.

- In the morning of the last day the operator approved our request to be dropped at Sala Gate, instead of Voi Gate. Thereafter I ordered a transfer to the hotel. Two hours later, shortly before departure and after I ordered the driver, we were told that a transfer to Sala Gate would not be approved, since the operator did not want to pay the fuel for an extra 150km (of course, the two gamedrives less were not refunded).

- Instead we should rush to Voi, where we were supposed to take a car from Voi to Malindi. So we left the lodge early and skipped the gamedrive scheduled for this day

- Arriving in Voi it turned out that there was no space for us in the car - so we had to wait two hours two hours to take the train to Mombasa.

All in all there was a total lack of organisation and support once the money was paid. The refusal of driving us 75km to Sala Gate was rediculous, considering the price of the safari and the fact, that the operator delivered two gamedrives less than promised.

Helpful, good and quick communicaton
5/5

Everything was perfect, the tours, the accomodation, communication, everything. I’m sure we’ll be back someday

Amazing
5/5

The tour we did in July from Tanzania to Kenya was a wonderful experience. The hotels were incredible except for one which was quite far removed and also lost power one evening but of course not the tour operators problem,

My 10 year old son and I went for aprox 10 days and it was an incredible visit to Seregenti, Ngorongoro, Masai Mara, and to Nairobi. The trip especially in Kenya can only be described as magical - the Mara is an incredible experience and while I know the big 5 cannot be guaranteed, because we didn’t put pressure, we actually witnessed and saw more than anyone can imagine,

We came in July and weren’t expecting to see a migration but after 9 hours waiting patiently one day, we happened to see 2 tigers approach a group of almost 1000 zebras and they crossed at another location with hippos and crocodile infested waters,

The trip was especially made wonderful by our fearless and wonderful tour guide Nixon. Nixon not only took the time to explain the history and culture but he invited us to meet his lovely and wonderful family and we got to witness more than we had ever dreamt.

We also visited Nairobi properly and Nixon and his brother gave us a personal tour of the city, going to places that aren’t often visited, I love to always see the local universities and we happened to visit the University of Nairobi and also go to the city cultural center where they host UN and other foreign dignitaries and ministers.

To see a country, you cannot say you happened to just go on safari. I advise anyone , learn the history, spend time learning the beauty of the people, the city in its splendor and finally- get to unplug and see the natural beauty that is Africa.

I grew up in high school in Southern Africa and have toured extensively and done many safaris in South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. I was blown away by Kenya and I have Nixon and his family for making it so memorable

When we saw the crossing, the zebras went to another point. Nixon had the foresight yo take off immediately and he knew exactly where they might go. Sure enough; they went there and we were a handful of cars to witness it.

I’ll also insist in this review, please bring cash and tip generously. The team takes their time to show you their beautiful country, the least us foreigners can do is show them our gratitude properly

Most importantly, the memories you build on safari and on the road can never be replicated even in a resort. Enjoy and I thank Teddy, Jamran and everyone at the tour company for showing us the love.

Amazing Safari Experience that Exceeded my Expectations!
5/5

I booked my first group tour ever for a trip to Tanzania. It was an amazing tour full of cultural immersion and experienced staff. While I enjoyed that experience immensely, I decided to take a solo safari to Kenya and I wanted to have a different experience. I found the website www.safaribookings.com and looked for a safari that would show me different areas of the country. I liked Jamlan and the 6-Day Magical Safari Tour to Samburu, Nakuru and Masai Mara. From my very first message, Isabella was warm and responsive. She answered every single email quickly and made me feel very confident that I would have a good safari and that everything would be handled professionally. Nickson, a Masai, was my Guide, Animal Spotter/Driver. Each skill was essential to having an amazing adventure beyond my dreams. I was in Africa to photograph animals. With Nickson’s guidance I was able to take bucket list shots I always dreamed of. It is a skill to navigate the many twisty, small roads, rocks and water while sharing the road and information with other drivers. However the knowledge about the many birds and animals and how to spot them was remarkable! The things he knows about their habits, their diets and their mating habits was way more than I expected. I was so impressed with his level of knowledge and education. He was also very funny and kind. Hiring a private guide was the best decision ever! It will take me weeks to review the thousands of photographs I took on this trip. Lastly, all accommodations selected by Jamlan were very nice and one was an exceptional luxury tent experience! I will never forget my Jamlan experience with Isabella and Nickson.

Best Safari ever!!
5/5

Teddy sorted everything out to my specification. John our driver was fantastic. The hotels, especially kilaguna tsavo west and sopa lodge lake nakuru, were fantastic. Cannot recommend Jamlan enough
