Making life time memories
We had the most amazing experience with Leopard Orchid Safari. Extremely well organised, polite, and knowledgeable team. Our guide Patrick was faultless and took us to where all the action was.

Leopard Orchid took care of the details so our family could make good memories together
Our driver, Jimmy, was very good (He was friendly, competent and knew where to find the animals at Ol Pejeta. He also seemed to have an unending supply of bottled water for us.) Our family had a wonderful trip together. We were satisfied with the service we received. Michael and James were prompt to answer all our inquiries. We would happily hire this safari company again.

Extremely professional, welcoming and helpful. Super recommend choice as a tour operator!
I found Leopard Orchid on Safaribookings and they have been incredibly helpful since the very first conversations. The whole experience was completely customizable and you can request all sort of transfers as well if you like. We did Maasai Mara, Nakuru NP, Ambosseli NP and Tsavo East NP for a total of 5 days safari. Amazing experience, especially Maasai Mara and Nakuru where we managed to see all the big five plus a plenty of other stunning creatures. Our guide, Paul, definitely was a gigantic added value to the tour. He has always been super kind and willing to answer my numerous questions about the parks and their fauna. We really appreciated the passion Paul puts into his job, and it made all the difference in our experience.
Accomodations were always nice and cozy, maybe the one in Nakuru was the only not to be perfect, with a couple of inconveniences that happened. But, a part from that, even the choice of the accomodations was great. Communication with Michael was excellent as well as perceived service.
Regarding the price, we spent 3.2k USD for two people, which I believe is an ok price for all the things we have seen/done. Still one of the best quotes we got after talking with a few operators.
Generally speaking, I completely recommend the tour we did and specifically to book it with Leopard Orchid if you are looking for lovely attitude and solid competence.

Wonderful, from planning to the very end!
Our safari in Kenya with Leopard Orchid was absolutely magical! From witnessing the dense population of grazing animals in the Maasai Mara to spotting lions, cheetahs, a leopard and even a rare black rhino, every moment was unforgettable.
From the first email, our correspondence with Michael was super smooth. He answered all our (many) questions and tailored the tour to our budget. We were picked up from the hotel in Nairobi by the entire family, demonstrating the care that this family run company has for their guests.
Our guide Ezekiel was very knowledgeable, making the game drives both exciting and educational. And it was almost like he was the animal whisperer, they would walk towards our jeep when parked even 500 meters away. He knows the right place to be.
The accommodations perfectly balanced out taste and authenticity, and waking up to sunrise over the savannah was breathtaking. Visiting a Maasai village added a rich cultural layer to the trip, making it even more meaningful.
Kenya’s stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife created a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We can’t wait to go back, and would certainly recommend Leopard Orchid Safaris for your Safari adventure.
An Unforgettable Kenyan Safari Adventure!
My cousin and I just returned from an incredible 7-day safari through Kenya, and it was truly the adventure of a lifetime. From start to finish, everything went so smoothly, and that’s thanks to the exceptional team who made it happen.
Booking was seamless thanks to Elijah, who was not only prompt in handling our questions but ensured every detail was perfectly arranged. Once we arrived, our guide, Lawrence, made our experience unforgettable. His knowledge about the animals, ecosystems, and Kenyan culture added such depth to our trip. He went above and beyond, sharing fascinating insights and having meaningful conversations with us that truly enriched the experience.
Our stops at Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Maasai Mara offered amazing scenery and wildlife—each location had its own unique charm. Seeing the Big Five on our tour was a dream come true, but each place had something truly special to offer, from Amboseli’s elephants to Lake Nakuru’s rhinos.
One recommendation: definitely opt for the jeep rather than the van! The extra cost is worth it for the added comfort and the best possible views for spotting wildlife.
Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Huge thanks to Elijah, Lawrence, and the team for making this an unforgettable safari adventure. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Kenya!

Amazing safari!
Me and the kids had an extraordinary time! Michael was extremely helpful and patient during the planning our trip and from the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming, making us feel at ease and excited for the adventure ahead. Patrick, our guide was not only knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecosystems but also had an incredible eye for spotting animals even at a distance. We learned so much about each animal’s habits and habitats.
The safari is absolutely worth it. I came back with stunning photos, new friends, and memories me and kids will cherish forever. Highly recommended!

The best what you can choose
We have just returned home from our most memorable safari holiday in Kenya which will stay always in our memories and hearts. We would like to thank you many times for the smoothest and the best way as we have been treated. Thanks to Elijah´s prompt answers on many emails and questions and helping with the safari itinerary. He planned precisely everything from the pickup from hotel, through all memorable moments, folowing all the transfers, train tickets and drop off directly at our beach villa at Diani at the end. And the biggest thank you is for our guide and driver Patrick, who was as we all agreed the best of the best who could take care of us and who made our adventure unforgettable. Patrick is a great person with great heart, he was punctual every single day, gave us every information at time, managed to drive us safely through almost whole Kenya and answered every of our many questions. He was always attentive, and provided us always the best spots to see the wild animals.
Once again, thank you for everything Leopard Orchid Safaris! ♥️🇰🇪

Great Communication and very fair price
When I was looking into Safari bookings I was very scared because the amount of companies that offer these services are incredible, from all the quotes I received Orchid was right on the ballpark of what we were looking for and the prices were not so high compared with other quotes.
Since day 1 Elijah help me to go with the process and solve all my questions eventho we booked almost a year a prior, once the date arrived Elijah, and the CEO of the company were there to greeting us and to introduce to our driver, David, after a short introduction and step by step days a nice gift from their side we were on our way to our adventure.
David was so nice during the whole trip, as we were driving he was giving us details of Kenya making the long drive more interesting, We really appreciate all the help and long hours that David put into this trip, I highly recommend him, he was so nice.
Safaris is mostly luck, we were unlucky to see Kilimanjaro due to cloudy weather, but we were fortunate to compensate by watching plenty of the animals we wanted to see in the safari, we had cheetahs walking by our side, plenty of elephants and even quite some lions going through many many herbivores hahahaha even the sneaky leopard we manage to see 3 of them in our 6 day safari.
The accommodations were way beyond our expectations, we were hoping to by something similar to a cheap motel in the states but we were so wrong, every place was neat and the staff super friendly, Leopard had selected very good accommodations for us.
If we ever decide to go back to Kenya for sure Leopard Orchid would be in the first call to make.
