Experience of a lifetime with Kameraz and Sammy!!
Our 9-day Fly/Drive Safari was something we always dreamed about and for my wife’s 60th birthday we made it happen! Our driver/guide was Sammy who we had read several great reviews about. SAMMY is the MAN! He is extremely knowledgeable on Kenya, the culture and especially the animals. He is kind, caring and funny! We laughed the entire trip and fell in love with him right away.
Kameraz was super easy to work with and very flexible and responsive. They had everything under control from start to finish! All of the little details were taken care of from park fees, lodge bookings and right down to Sammy setting up two wonderful picnics on the savanna watching the animals. This is a first rate company that we were extremely happy with! Thank you Kameraz and a great big thank you to our new friend Sammy!
Just book your trip with them, we know you will be thrilled with your trip of a lifetime.
And yes we saw the Big 5, the Special 5, the Ugly 5 and more!

Be careful!!!
Overall the safari was an amazing experience. Our driver Tony was always punctual and went out of his way to ensure we saw plenty of animals and always from the best vantage points.
However, we specifically booked this tour to stay on the game reserves, but at the last minute, the accommodation was changed to a substandard hotel in town. We spoke with the office about this and the woman there wouldn’t help and was extremely rude, yelling that we should read the small print. There were also issues with the final payment , and despite sending proof the payment had been made, the same woman again yelled down the phone demanding to be paid again and threatened us with the police. Not a pleasant experience.

Excellent Operator
Our 6-day safari with Sammy was absolutely fantastic! We saw an incredible variety of animals, including all the big ones we hoped to see, even a leopard which is very rare to see. Sammy was not only knowledgeable and skilled at spotting wildlife, but also incredibly kind and patient with us, even when we were late or caused delays. His warm personality made the trip even more enjoyable, and we always felt well taken care of. If you’re looking for a guide who knows the landscape and treats you with genuine care, Sammy is the one!

A company that lives up to very high standards which creates a Safari suited to the individual.
This Safari was my wife's dream and was on her bucket list along with a hot air balloon ride.I was apprehensive booking this tour but Carol and Brian planned our 12 day Safari in great detail so that we could experience the real Kenya We saw all the big five animals and every day brought new experiences.We stayed at five different lodges , all were 5 star and offered different types of accommodation all had views of animals from your tent or room windows.We travelled in a land cruiser which was comfortable even on the most uneven dirt roads.Our driver Kioko made every attempt to get us up close to all the animals.We also had a picnic in the Maisi Mara which was an experience in its self.My wife was over the moon with her hot air balloon experience.We visited 5 game reserves and every one offered something different.When we arrived in Kenya we did not know what to expect but when we met Kioko (frank) it soon became clear that we were in good hands.Our flight had been delayed and our luggage did not arrive until the following day Kioko took us back to the airport and helped us retrieve our luggage in order to start our adventure.All i can say is that Kameraz fulfilled their part in making our dream come true.It was reliable and value for money and will certainly recommend them to all my friends.Once again Kameraz thank you.

High cost performance！
Overall, it was a pleasant journey, especially because of the nice cost and the good quality of the resorts and camp! But still, some aspects for improvement e.g. inadequate information of guide are sent to us only one day advanced after repeatedly urge. Moreover, we choosed miniVan but it seemed to old, the tire and battery of the Van both failed in the road, we waste many times to fix it up. In all, the journey of Kenya is worthy！

Perfect and reliable
The communication was smooth throughout the whole process! The driver and part-time tour guide had good driving skills and knew enough about animals. He kept popularizing science for us. He was very reliable throughout the whole process!

They did everything they could to make our trip smooth after our flight was delayed 3 days.
Carol was very helpful in putting together a tour for us. When our flight got delayed 3 days they worked very hard trying to rebook everything and make sure we got the best options available. Unfortunately we missed out on a few of the awesome hotels, but that was not their fault at all. They did respond and try to make our trip as smooth as possible at all times. We loved all of our safaris. We didn't enjoy the two lakes we went to as much, and would have skipped them altogether and spent more time on the safaris, but keep in mind the drives are long and take a long time (they can't drive over 80km/h, so do the math like that), and the lake stops were more strategic. Next time I come, I will choose to go to less places and spend more time in each place, for sure.

Nice experience in Kenya
My friend and I had our safari organised by this tour agency from the 6th August till the 16th August: it was our first safari and, overall, we enjoyed it, even though some aspects can be improved. The communication with the agency was really quick and efficient during the all time and our accomodations were good (budget option), except for the first one in Masai Mara, where we spent two nights and both food and bathrooms (scarcely essential and with unstable hot water) were not the best.
Our driver, Newton, was a nice guy and he used to provide adequate explationations during the game drives, but he was not always on time, so the timing in general should be optimized, also considering few but proper stops and the time for meals, and we didn't always feel safe while he was driving, because he was constantly on the phone. A very negative aspect about the organisation is that the driver didn't have his accomodations booked for the night, so it happened twice that we had to leave earlier from the game drive in order to let him find where to sleep (and of course we agreed to leave because we didn't want him to sleep in the car, but it would have been more appropriate to book it in advance, maybe through the agency, so that we could enjoy the whole day at the park). In addition, during our first game drive in Masai Mara the car broke down twice (at first there was a problem with a bolt of the tyre, which probably wouldn't have happened if there had been a proper check-up before the start of the safari and this inconvenience made us waste more than 1 hour to solve it, while the second time was just a damage in the tyre, which of course can happen and was quickly changed).
Our programme also included a visit to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha: they are not bad, but I think two days are too many and it's better to skip at least one of them and to have more time for a game drive in a park (Amboseli for example, where we spent just half a day at the end) and when we realised this during the trip, they told us it was too late to change our schedule. I would have liked to spend more time in Masai Mara too, because, even though we were supposed to spend two days of game drive there according to the programme, we actually had one day, since we arrived in the afternoon on the first day and there was only the possibility to visit the Masai village, which we preferred not to do.
So, on balance, I would suggest to see less spots, but to spend more time in the main parks, maybe also providing more packed lunches to be taken in the morning when it's time to change accomodation in order to avoid waisting time in reaching the new place, doing the check-in and having lunch, but going straight to the new park for the game drive and then doing the check-in directly in the evening.
At the end, we went to Diani Beach, where we spent a very nice and relaxing time at our resort. Anyway, apart from the previous points, we had a good time.

Tour was incredible, but our guide Sammy was the highlight!
My friend and I did a 2 person private tour with Kameraz of Afrika in July 2024 for 7 days in Kenya. It was very easy to communicate with the tour operator prior to our trip. They made sure we had our trip and add-ons confirmed, the value for money was definitely a plus, and I felt we had good response times prior to arriving (especially taking into account the difference in time zones). Once we were in Nairobi and ready for our safari is when our guide Sammy took over and I can't stress enough how amazing he was!! I didn't have too many expectations since I hadn't done a safari before, but now having been on one and spoken to others who have gone on their own - your guide makes all the difference and Sammy went above and beyond at every turn. There were the easy things like he was always on time for our meet ups and stayed with us at every excursion (including at all secondary locations for the add-ons we did to our trip (boat ride, hot air balloon ride, horseback riding)). He also made sure we always knew what to expect every day of the safari (so we could dress, pack and plan accordingly) and he was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly loves what he does! My friend and I are very curious and had a million questions everywhere we went and he was so informative and never made us feel like we were pestering him with our curiosity and questions. If anything, he was really excited to have people who loved learning as much as he does! It's obvious how much knowledge and experience he has in every aspect, not just inside the parks and about the animals. He was such a kind, positive and helpful person, he truly made our experience go from great to incredible. I highly recommend requesting him if booking with Kameraz!
