I am on safari with Juliet and her team right now in Kenya and it is the most amazing hospitality I have found in all of Africa. When I come back I will use Simian Safaris every time. They make you feel so comfortable from the moment you arrive and every experience has been incredible. They personalize your safari to be exactly what you need. I recommend to book with Simian Safaris now.

Simian Safaris KE organised a Memorable Tsavo and Mombasa Nyali beach experience.
5/5

I cannot thank Simian Safaris enough for organizing such a seamless and unforgettable three-day trip from Nairobi to Tsavo and Mombasa. As someone who prefers to avoid the hassle of planning, I truly appreciated how the team took care of every detail, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the experience.

My journey began with a visit to Tsavo National Park, where I was lucky enough to witness the majestic elephants grazing freely in their natural habitat. Seeing them with their young ones was a heartwarming reminder of how deeply animals care for each other. The park’s breathtaking hills made for a perfect backdrop, and I couldn’t help but snap countless photos to capture the sheer beauty of it all. Kenya’s landscapes are truly unmatched.

The next stop was Nyali Beach in Mombasa, which, despite being busy due to the holiday season, was still the perfect destination to unwind. There’s simply no better way to experience Mombasa than by soaking in the sun and enjoying the inviting waves. I spent hours basking in the warmth and watching the sunset paint the sky in the most beautiful colors. In the evening, I headed to English Point Marina, where the live band was absolutely amazing. The carefully chosen songs, paired with the stunning beach views, created a magical atmosphere. The Christmas decorations added an extra touch of charm, especially the beautifully adorned Christmas tree. To top it off, the food experience was exceptional—everything I could have asked for and more.

On my final day, I ventured to English Point Marina Beach, which was a hidden gem. Unlike the busier Nyali Beach, this one was tranquil and pristine, offering a refreshing escape. As I walked along the shore, the view of Mombasa city across the water made it feel even more special. I joined the local boys playing football but couldn’t resist the call of the water. Swimming here was pure therapy, and I left feeling rejuvenated and completely at peace.

As a traveler who prefers not to deal with the stresses of planning, I’m grateful for how Simian Safaris made everything easy and enjoyable.
From their supportive customer service to the recommendations for places to visit, every moment was a highlight.
A big thank you to Simian Safaris for curating such a wonderful trip.

I recommend you don’t book with Simian Safaris
1/5

From our experience, Simian Safaris is not Safe!
We had the worst experience with a safari to Amboseli with this company. They made us first wait for half a day in a gas station waiting for the van.
They also promised a tour that, since the beginning, the driver said it was never planned, even though we paid more more for that specific tour. When we asked for a compensation or a refund, they stopped answering our calls. They even didn’t want to pay the driver for our way back to Nairobi (which was part of the deal and was paid) and THEY LEFT US ABANDONED IN THE NATIONAL PARK with no alternative to come back to the city. After making a lot of pressure from our side, the driver and the lodge, they ended up giving a solution, but our experience was obviously ruined.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear about the challenges you experienced with our services. Your concerns are very important to us, and we take them seriously.

We strive to provide personalized attention to all our clients, and we're sorry that you felt otherwise.
However, the lamentations indicated by Victor are vindictive. There is evidence to the effect that the expectations for a tour organized for him were met under the costs granted, as he successfully went for a game drive at Amboseli National Park, he wanted an additional day and night paid for by the company but was guided that would have only been possibly done at extra costs which were not factored in the initial plan for his tour.

Victor's review therefore does not represent a reflection of the services offered by the company.

Nyungwe Canopy in Rwanda
5/5

Simian Safaris made the trip to Nyungwe easy and enjoyable.
We witnessed unique thrilling forest canopy tour in Rwanda’s Nyungwe National Park; one of Africa’s largest montane forests, rich in biodiversity.

Walking across Nyungwe Canopy Walkway on the suspended bridge at a height of around 70 meters (230 feet) above the forest floor, offered breathtaking views of the rainforest canopy, give us a bird’s-eye perspective of the lush greenery below.
The canopy stretching for about 160 meters (525 feet) is a thrilling adventure for those who enjoy heights and nature.
