Amazing 8 Day Safari - perfectly organized
We chose Kenya for our first safari because of the incredible diversity of wildlife. As complete novices, we thoroughly researched various agencies on safaribookings.com, reading numerous reviews. Morningstar stood out for its positive feedback, and now we know why. We had an unforgettable 8-day safari across Kenya, and we’re happy to add another 5-star review for our tour provider.
From the very start, Dennis made us feel like we were in great hands. He was always quick to respond, providing detailed and professional advice. He even sent us a comprehensive PDF with suggestions for our tour, including prices for each activity – an impressive level of transparency that we didn’t see from other agencies. Everything was extremely well-organized, from the accommodations to the overall logistics.
Our next stroke of luck was our tour guide, Rono. He was the perfect guide for us – incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and an excellent, safe driver in the Toyota Land Cruiser 4x4. During the game drives, he consistently found incredible wildlife and positioned us perfectly for photos. Thanks to him, we had an extraordinary experience, spotting all of the Big Five within just three days! Every day brought new highlights, making it hard to choose a single “best” moment.
We wholeheartedly recommend Morningstar for an unforgettable safari experience.

Fast and efficient responses, well organised
Morningstar helped organise our first safari and we enjoyed all of it. The guides were great, very well organised and the lodges were absolutely stunning beyond our expectations.
We ended up seeing all of the big 5 virtually every day and left the safari delighted.
We used Morningstar because of their response time which is really really useful and solved all of our problems (including when we had an issue with my father nearer the time of going). They checked in with us around our visa’s and vaccines as well.
Overall, a fantastic experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to family and friends.

Responsive and excellent service
Joysharon is main contact and she’s very friendly, professional and responsive. She provided us with different options along with clear quotations.
Our driver and guide, Joshua, is very knowledgeable about different types of animals and he was the first guide to spot a walking leopard on our last day in Masai Mara. He also has good driving skills.
Overall, I’d highly recommend Morningstar for your trip to Kenya.

Very organized, very friendly and knowledgeable.
Willy our safari tour guide/driver, asked us what we wanted to see, and he tried his best and succeeded in showing us all we wanted and more. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Incredible experience
We had a 10/10 experience with Morning Star. Alice was so accommodating and helpful to create a bespoke private tour for us. Our guides Eric and Elly went above and beyond for us, and were very personable and knowledgeable. They made absolute sure that we enjoyed our safari, even cleaning the vehicle every afternoon and making sure we had chilled water bottles. Cannot recommend more highly!

Well organized tour for a fun Safari adventure
Wife and I decided to take a combined safari tour of Kenya and Tanzania. There are many tour operators to choose from, we eventually settled on morning star due to the great review and the right tour program offered. Our point of contact was great to talk to and offered many useful tips during the planning and execution of the tour. We really enjoyed our time in east Africa and very glad that we went on this trip.

The perfect safari worth every penny!
I seriously can't recommend booking with Morning Star enough. When trying to pick a safari, it was overwhelming to decide on a company given how many there are with similar itineraries. What stood out immediately about Morning Star was their responsiveness and professional quote. Alice was amazing, always responding to my questions promptly and worked well with us to ensure we planned the safari of our dreams. We were nervous that it wouldn't live up to the price tag as this trip was a splurge for us, but I can say it was worth every penny we spent.
We did a 7-day Kenya and Tanzania trip to Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Our guides, Alex and Hassan, were both amazing! They went above and beyond, listening to our requests for what we most wanted to see and do, and planned our days accordingly. They even assisted with the border crossing to make that an easy transition. Immediately it was obvious that our guides were experienced and had a great relationship with the other guides and park workers. We were blown away by how many animals we saw, even just on our first day! In addition, the jeeps look brand new and are equipped with charging ports, a pop up top so you can stand, and unlimited water. Every hotel we stayed in was beautiful and provided delicious food. Lastly, we had one mix up (not the fault of Morning Star) where we forgot to pack a lunch on one of our travel days. Morning Star immediately fixed the issue and also refunded us for the meal we didn't receive. They made the entire process easy from start to finish and I'm grateful to have been able to travel with them.
