Very thoughtful, very timely, very accurate, very good
5/5

This trip is my honeymoon with my wife. I will not talk much about the beautiful scenery in Africa, but mainly share my recognition of the travel agency. Alice responded to my every need in a timely and accurate manner, provided different suggestions, and made people feel at home. And the attitude was very good, the animal knowledge was very profound, it was a very perfect trip

Very professional and available to respond to every request.
5/5

Very well organized and available to respond to every request. Both Joy on the booking side and Mike as driver and guide during the safari were very professional. Joy came to meet us to introduce us to Mike at the beginning of the trip and came to say goodbye at the end. With Mike we felt at ease and we saw all the animals of the savannah. The lodges were also excellent. It was a wonderful experience.

Amazing Trip
5/5

We had the pleasure of working with Wanja to plan our first trip to Kenya. We received several quotes but Morningstar stood out based on their attention to detail and excellent communication. As far as pricing is concerned, it was comparable to others. We went on safaris Nairobi, Amboseli, and Tsavo national parks. We stayed at luxury lodges and had the best experience. Our tour guide Francis was exceptional and made us feel very comfortable and safe. He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and the terrain. For each location of our safari we had no worries and all we had to do was show up. We saw almost all of the animals we wanted to except for a leopard. We finished out our trip with a few nights at Diani Beach. There was a little snag upon arrival in Mombasa but the issue was resolved and we were on our way. We used multiple forms of transportation and went on some amazing excursions...train, plane, jeep, hot air balloon, and Dhow boat. It was an adventure that my entire family enjoyed and was suitable for the varying age groups ranging from 40-70+. Definitely give them a shot and choose the higher end lodges. I can't say enough about Kilaguni Serena in Tsavo. The view was breathtaking. Also, the hot air balloon safari with Killamanjaro in the background was another unique and Soul satisfying moment. Our stay at Diani Beach was wonderful and the food was perfectly balanced, fresh, and delicious. Kudos to Swahili Beach resort (old but well maintaine) a very beautiful property with beautiful grounds. Definitely get a spa treatment.

A wonderful well planned safari experience.
5/5

Dennis from Morningstar organized our trip, 2 nights in Nairobi, 8 nights on safari then 4 nights at Diani Beach. Everything went smoothly, our safari guide/driver Willy, was amazing, making sure we got to see the animals close up and was also very informative about the animals. Dennis checked in with us to make sure things were going smoothly. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend this company for safari trips.

Amazing 8 Day Safari - perfectly organized
5/5

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
5/5

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
5/5

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.
