Exceptional and magical experience
5/5

We booked a seven day safari with AKOMS SAFARIS which started on 5th March 2023. Upon arrival at the airport, Boaz was already waiting for us and the warm reception we received culminated to be true reflection of all our safari encounter. He then transferred us to our hotel for an overnight stay, which was a few metres from the airport.
On the first morning of our safari we were met promptly at our hotel by our driver/guide Joel. You could immediately tell that we had booked with the right company as he presented professional in safari attire and the Logo’d Toyota Landcruiser was certainly the perfect vehicle for what lay ahead.

We had a good start when we asked Joel whether we could make a quick stop to grab some breakfast and to go and find an ATM to withdraw some cash for tips etc. He was willing to do this. This willingness was a theme that continued throughout our safari.

Our first night in Tsavo West was at the Severin park lodge. This was to be an unforgettable one as we retired to the sounds of Hyenas and were captivated by Impala and Giraffes walking past our (Glamping) tent.
The food served at our accommodations varied between a la carte menus and buffets, all of which were of very good standard.
At Tsavo West we were fortunate to see a leopard at close quarters, who was feasting on a zebra carcass.

Amboseli was probably my favourite park due to the variety of wildlife, particularly in the marshes. Hippos, elephants, giraffes, zebra, buffalo, wildebeest etc grazing in perfect harmony.
Our boat trip in Lake Navaisha was another highlight, especially with the diversity of birds that we were able to see.

Finally, at the Masai Mara, we were fortunate to see a pride of lions that had just killed a buffalo and calf. Joel was able to skillfully maneuvered our vehicle into a position that maximized our view and photo opportunities.
It was a wonderful experience and my family was really happy for what the whole trip turn out to be. I STRONGLY recommend AKOMS SAFARIS L for anyone who wants to try safari in East Africa.

Amazing
5/5

We took a 6 day safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amboseli National park. The tour was well planned by Boaz and excellently executed by Joel our guide. We managed to see all the big 5 both in Mara and Amboseli among other predators and grazers. Joel knew the best routes to warrant sighting of of the wildlife at a close range. His sense of humor was amazing and he was always patient with us. i strongly recommend AKOMS SAFARIS to anyone planning to travel to Kenya.

Very well organized tour! 5 stars
5/5

The tour went very well, organized with precision and without any problems.
Our guide, Joel, was truly terrific, his help, his experience and his knowledge of the Amboseli and Masai Mara were essential.
Communication with the AKOMS SAFARIS staff was always fast and reliable.
The places we slept in were comfortable, sometimes a little basic,but we were always treated with the utmost respect and kindness. We were a vegetarian group, and we had no problem always finding the right food for us, and even in the packed lunches they always worked to make us have a personalized menu. I strongly and joyfully recomennd AKOMS to any one planning a travel to Kenya

best experience ever
5/5

We were absolutely thrilled with our trip to Kenya in January, thanks to Boaz and Effie of Akoms safaris. We were so grateful for welcoming us and providing the best experience possible, it exceeded all our expectations! We believe we got super lucky with Joel our guide, we got to see everything we wanted including the Big five! We were lucky to see the Leopard, Cheetah and Lions several times.

We had our flight back late in the evening, they were so nice to take their time and show us around the Nairobi City and booked us an amazing restaurant to try all the unusual types of meats, which was a perfect way to finish our extraordinary experience!!

Thank you thank you! So much Akoms Safaris family.
