An unforgettable safari with our amazing guide Lucas
We had an unforgettable safari honeymoon, and it’s all thanks to our amazing guide, Lucas, and the incredible Meektrails team.
Our journey began nearly a year ago when we reached out to several safari agencies. Daniel immediately stood out with his genuine enthusiasm and passion for showcasing the beauty of Kenya. His dedication to educating visitors about this remarkable country made our decision to choose Meektrails an easy one. From there, William took over to assist with follow-ups and account-related matters. He was consistently prompt, thorough, and extremely helpful, offering great recommendations and going above and beyond to accommodate our last-minute changes and special requests.
Accommodations were another highlight of our trip. We received booking confirmations well in advance, and during our journey, we stayed at Amboseli Sopa, Lake Nakuru Sopa, and Zebra Plains Camp. Each location had its own charm, offering excellent food, service, and comfort. The friendly staff made it the perfect place to relax and unwind after long days of game drives.
What truly made our experience unforgettable, however, was our safari guide, Lucas. We were fortunate to spend Christmas with him, and it made the holiday even more special. Lucas’s vast knowledge, passion, and expertise brought the entire safari to life. Every game drive was not just a tour but an adventure, filled with learning and wonder. He did everything he could to ensure we saw all the animals on our wish list and would go out of his way to position us for the best views and photos. My husband and I had a million questions—about the wildlife, local food, culture, and people—and Lucas was incredibly patient, always listening carefully and generously sharing his insights. He’s also a very safe and cautious driver, ensuring a smooth ride despite the bumpy safari roads. We truly felt like we were spending time with a family member.
After a short week, we left with so much knowledge and so many great memories. I can’t recommend Lucas enough for anyone wanting an extraordinary safari experience that goes beyond just seeing the animals. It was truly the experience of a lifetime! Asante!

Very Knowledgeable
Not only was this the best priced package, this company was prompt in getting back to me and stayed in consent contact with me along the way.
Thank you Eluid for your professionalism and answering every single question we had along the way, you had so much patience with us :)
I planned a six night safari for seven of us. It was great that we had a private land cruiser Jeep just for us and that this company was flexible in the itinerary we chose and were able to coordinate for us so smoothly.
Our Safari guide and game driver, Ben was very knowledgeable, professional, patient and so delightful to be with that whole week ;) it truly makes a difference to be with such an experienced driver that was so knowledgeable on the history, landscape and of course the animals that reside in each national park.
I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris, they have the same access to any lodge that high end companies have so they are able to book you at a budget that works for you!
What was proposed is what we got. There were no surprise fees nor any disappointment in our lodges. We truly loved our Safari! Thank you Meektrails Safaris for a once in a life time experience 🙏🏼

An experience we will never forget!
An experience we will never forget!
We went for an amazing and memorable 8-day safari exploring Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara in Kenya. During the booking process, the Meektrails Safari agent (Peris Kinyua) has been constantly kind and professional, giving us amazing suggestions and tailoring all the aspects of the safari according to our needs. They proposed very cozy, clean and perfectly-located accommodations having all the amenities and very good food. Moreover, Peris has been always in contact with us during the safari to check that everything was smooth and fine. The new, clean and spacious vehicle has everything what you need (wifi, water, plugs, etc.)!
Samuel (Sammy) has been our incredible and tireless driver for the safari….we simply loved him! No words can really describe his deep experience and passion for his work. In the game drives, he has provided many details on the animals and nature and answered all our questions. During our safari, we had the chance to meet other Meektrails Safari drivers (e.g. Joseph) who are are really kind and always smiling.
We had an experience we will never forget, and surely we will contact Meektrails Safari for other trips.

Ben was fantastic! Highly recommend!
We managed our booking through Eluid who was our primary contact when making the reservation and was very responsive and very easy to work with. Our driver and guide was Ben who was outstanding and very knowledgeable with all the different species of animals and places we saw. He was great about taking all our interests into account and was very good at what he does. We were able to see the big 5 in our first day! Communication was very good and felt very conferable and safe with him throughout our entire trip. In addition, all our lodges were great with great service and food. We highly recommend Meek Trails, Eluid and Ben to anyone interested in scheduling a safari.

Out of the World Safari Experience
My family and I had so much fun on the safari organized by MeekTrails. All the hotels and resorts were amazing and very accommodating to vegetarian diet.
From the booking to the final day airport drop off, everything was seamless and taken care off.
Joseph was an extraordinary guide and human being. He was very kind and understanding. He was very knowledgeable and we were lucky to have him show us around. He provided amazing details and information about the wildlife and I appreciate that very much
We have 0 complains. Everything was PERFECT

A lovely time in such a beautiful country
Everything about our experience with Meektrails was fantastic. We communicated with Paul prior to and during booking. When we got to Kenya, we met James who would be our guide at our hotel early the first morning. We saw all of the big 5 across Amboseli, Nakuru and Masai Mara. All lodging exceeded expectations. I recommend you splurge for the Land Cruiser as it was a beast in some muddy conditions that we saw a van get stuck in. Overall it was an amazing week with a great guide in some beautiful lodges in otherworldly places with tons of wildlife. What more could you ask for?

7 perfect days
First of all: a big Thank You to the whole team of Meek Trails. From the first contact with Diana until the last drop off at the hotel in Nairobi everything was perfect.
Especially Philip: he was calm during driving, told us everything we should know about Africa, the animals, the plants and how to behave in Kenia.
Everyday we felt that he was not only doing his job very well, but he was really loving the nature, the big animals and the small ones, specially the moorhens.
He was patient, waited with us for the best moments, so we were very lucky to see all the animals we had hoped to see and were able to shoot beautiful photos.
We saw the Big 5, the Ugliest 5 and many others and many birds.
The days with Philip were full of seeing things and many laughters.
The chosen hotels were all beautiful, the meals very good.
At last: Thank you Meek Trails for that beautiful and unforgettable surprise at my birthday, when the whole team of the Zebra Camp and a Masai-Group were singing and dancing for me.
Diana and Philip: Asante sani - we will miss you!

The best or nothing!
What a magical place Kenya is. And it would be half as magical if it weren't for Meektrails. We did a 7-day tour including Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Nakuru, Masai Mara. They made us feel comfortable right from the start and the communication was excellent even months before we arrived.
Our game driver James was the best. We miss him! He loves his job and you can tell. We learned a lot! He's an amazing driver and was able to answer all our questions about the culture, the nature, the circumstances, everything and was very flexible with our needs.
The lodges they booked for us were fabulous, especially Kibo Safari camp at Amboseli. The people, the food, the room (tent), fantastic.
The experience was absolutely amazing. After some days you get to know the animals and their behaviors, and we felt even a bit sad to leave them behind.
Thank you Peris and thank you James for providing a wonderful lifetime experience.

BEST TOUR OPERATOR TO WORK WITH
It all began on a bright, sunny evening. After being picked up from my place of stay, I was transferred to the train station for the night train scheduled for 10 pm. The anticipation was palpable as I boarded the Madaraka Express, Kenya’s high-speed train that connects Nairobi to Mombasa. The journey itself was a story of excitement as the train glided smoothly through the rolling savannah and acacia-dotted plains. I gazed out of the window, mesmerized by the stunning landscapes.
At 3:30 am, we arrived in Mombasa. I was picked up and transferred to Diani, where Meektrails had booked my stay at Diani Sea Resort. My room was close to the beach, and the views were something to behold. The first sight of the ocean filled me with awe; it was my first time seeing the vast, turquoise expanse. I took the opportunity to swim and snorkel, enjoying the warm waters and vibrant marine life. Meektrails also organized a boat trip on a glass-bottom boat, allowing me to see fish and other sea creatures while comfortably seated. The highlight of this adventure was getting the chance to swim with the fish, an experience that felt almost surreal.
We spent three nights at Diani Sea Resort, each day more magical than the last. On the fourth day, we moved to Mombasa, where I had the opportunity to visit Old Town, with its narrow streets and ornately carved wooden doors, and explore Nyali and the historical Fort Jesus. Each site spoke volumes of the region’s rich heritage and culture.
On the last day, I had a brief city tour of Mombasa. I delighted in local Swahili dishes and visited Wild Waters, where I faced the scariest water slides I had ever experienced. The thrill of adrenaline rushed through my body as I tackled each slide. Later, I visited Mtwapa and enjoyed some local food there as well. In the evening, I was transferred to the train station and boarded the train back to Nairobi. Upon arrival, Meektrails had arranged for my transfer back to my initial pick-up location.
My trip to the coast was more than just a journey; it was an experience that left me with memories I would cherish forever. The warmth of the people, the natural beauty, and the rhythm of life by the sea had captured my heart. As I packed my bags to return home, I promised myself that this would not be the last time I ventured to Kenya’s captivating coastline.

Thanks Meektrails Safaris for the many memories I'll live with!!
