Great Service During My Safari in Kenya
5/5

Relying on the insightful reviews I found online, I made my safari reservation with Safari Update Travels. Sam was a fortunate tour guide for me. Sam did what many consider to be impossible—he helped us identify the majority of the Big 5, which was a huge achievement. At one point, as we were almost ready to leave the park, Sam turned around and started racing us to see the rhino in time. He informed us that seeing a rhino is not common, therefore he didn't want us to miss the opportunity. We were glad to spot the rhino thanks to Sam.
Our trip included teenagers, which is more significant. Sam was incredibly helpful, kind, and patient. My children would never have been able to get in and out of that safari truck. My kids are usually all over the place and it's hard to take charge of them. Sam handled them in the best way possible. This is crucial if you have children and require a guide with more patience, or if you have someone who needs extra help. I fully recommend Sam and Safari Update Travels to all my friends and family.

3 incredible days in Masai Mara
5/5

Steve from Safari Update Travels took us on three incredible days of safari in Masai Mara.
My sister and I were traveling to Kenya on safari, so naturally, we were seeking for a trustworthy guide. Steve, our driver and guide, was outstanding. He was kind, patiently answered all of our somewhat odd questions, and drove extremely carefully on Kenya's jam-packed roads. However, I would especially want to draw attention to the fact that he made an effort to locate the finest viewing spots for us during the safari, kept in contact with other drivers, and drove us there fast. After spending two days on the safari, we saw almost every species that could be encountered. Best regards to Safari Update Travels team and thanks again, Steve.

Outstanding value for money and an amazing holiday experience
5/5

We had a wonderful experience with Safari Update Travels right from the start of our email communication. Whenever we had an issue with the inquiry, the staff were very accommodating, answered all of our questions patiently and thoroughly. Peter, our tour guide, was a wealth of information and had extensive understanding of the animals. We stayed at Sarova Mara and the lodging was excellent. Everyone thinking about going on a safari in Kenya should definitely consider Safari Updates because they offered great value for the money.

Excellent execution and communication throughout the trip
5/5

Booked a trip for my daughter and I. The booking experience was seamless and the communication top notch. I was a little sceptical travelling with a child for such a long distance, but they made it a memorable experience . Totally recommend having your trip with them.

Tailored Safaris to suit anyone’s needs
5/5

Well firstly would give more than five stars if I could because our trip exceeded expectations!
Silas was fantastic, easy to communicate and always available for any questions or concerns.
Overall from first contact and quote to drop off safely at conclusion this was an amazing adventure.
Safari Update travel offer lots of various price and itinerary options to suit all needs.
We had a personal travel visa issue which meant changing flights and Silas personally went to airline office to sort out problem out while we were on safari - as a result we enjoyed the game drive and Silas from Safari Update travel fixed the issue for us.
James our guide was a careful driver and excellent ‘game hunter’ in our game drives pointing out so many types of animals birds and all eco systems.
Cannot rate this company highly enough thoroughly recommended.
Thank you for an excellent and very memorable Safari.

Nairobi's best spots to view wildlife
5/5

With Peter as our guide, we had an amazing time on our wildlife tour in Nairobi National Park. Peter is a really competent, kind, and knowledgeable person. Given our interest in bird seeing, he was gracious enough to point out the finest viewing locations. It's a good idea to pack snacks for the journey and to be informed of what is included in the costing as well as any additional fees. I am really grateful to Safari Update Travels for this amazing experience.
