Reliable and Professional Safari Experience
We had an amazing experience with this reliable and professional travel agency. From the start, Lencer provided quick and professional service when helping us plan our itinerary, making the process smooth and stress-free.
Our driver and guide, Johnathon, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife. He provided fascinating insights and answered all our questions with patience and expertise.
It's important to remember that spotting animals is partly a matter of luck, so we recommend spending a few extra days on the savannah for the best chances. Each evening, we discussed and adjusted the next day's plan with Johnathon based on various factors like weather, road conditions, and our energy levels. This flexibility and open communication were key to making the trip enjoyable and tailored to our needs.
We highly recommend this travel agency for anyone planning a safari in Kenya. Their professionalism and attention to detail made our trip unforgettable!

Professional services and fantastic experience!
A must-go tour in lifetime. Great trip planning! The tour was well managed and hotels are clean and comfy. Special thanks to our Masai guide, David, anything but professional job skills. We’ve seen all different kinds of wild animals with his experienced knowledge of spotting where they most likely to be. 100% recommendation, 10 out of 10 stars! You won’t be disappointed!

Flexible and reliable tour operator
Our tour operator contact was Lencer. She was very flexible in organizing our travel itineraries to meet our preferences and needs in terms of where we wanted to go, how we wanted to get there and how long we wanted to stay at each place. She also made sure that we were picked up on time by our various drivers and guides, that we reached our various destinations safely. This wasn’t easy as we travelled to see family in Nairobi, visited 2 safaris and beach vacation, all on a very tight schedule. Our various guides were also very good and knowledgeable, particularly David in Masai Mara, who made sure we saw as many animals as possible on our safari trip. On our last day of our trip, we discovered that we had a lot of extra time at the airport in Nairobi with nothing to do. Lencer then arranged for us a last minute trip to the Giraffe centre that she took upon herself to take us to. It was all in all a very enjoyable and adventurous trip. We were well taken care of 100% of the time.

Timely reply to messages to solve problems.
The cost-effectiveness is very high, the staff are very friendly, and the driver is very cooperative with our travel. The only drawback is that the initially agreed upon hotel was not successfully booked, resulting in price changes.

An Extraordinary East African Experience
Our guide John provided us with an absolutely professional service, he knew everything about the Masai Mara and even knew the characteristics of each pride of lions as well as their habits. Whenever we suggested that we wished to see a particular animal, he always accommodated us, without exception, which was incredible. He is definitely a very knowledgeable guide and we could trust him completely. When we were in trouble and couldn't solve the problem in the local language, he helped us and solved everything. Brought us a reliable and trustworthy experience which made our journey extremely interesting and hassle free. In terms of excursions, we saw three of the Big Five of the savannah, unfortunately no rhinos or leopards, but an abundance of birds and an unrivalled pride of lions, which has been very satisfying. I love East Africa and I thank the tour operator for providing us with a great experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.

Great organization and with the best guide!
Henry Sam has kindly organized everything for me, and I had an amazing experience and team with Johny Jackson in Maasai Mara! Johny knows everything, we had lots of fun even on road, and he’s really good at finding animals!
It took a bit more time on transfer than I expected, but it’s not that boring, the view and landscapes are beautiful! I would highly recommend Johny to be your tour guide! He’s the best!;)

Perfect experience
From the first contact to request a quote to the end of the tour, everything worked perfectly. All quotes were answered very quickly and the itinerary was tailored to our needs.
I didn't have to worry about a thing, I was contacted in advance by all the drivers for pick up, hotels and tents were extremely well located and comfortable. From the beginning to the end of the tour we were assisted at all times and felt very safe, comfortable and well looked after. I highly recommend their services and am very pleased.

An amazing holiday.
From the start, Henry was flexible and accomodating. I asked for 3 quotes from different companies and Awuor gave us the best price by far.
We had been planning this trip for about a year, and the communication from the company was excellent.
The value for money on a 6 day safari and 5 day beach holiday was good. We swapped our beach resort from Mombasa to Diani and Henry was happy to sort that.
4 out of 5 of our hotels were excellent 1 was good.
Victor our tour guide was second to none. He was brilliant at being patient in finding the animals.
We would advise Awuor to reconsider it's route. Driving from park to park is part of a safari but we drove north to south an vice versa 3 times which felt unnecessary when we looked at a map of Kenya. This meant 3 days of 6 hours + drives before even going on a Game Drive.
Irregardles, as a honeymoon we couldn't have asked for better. It was truly an amazing holiday.
