Very good service
John and his team were very responsive. We had some problems along the way with our rental, and they worked with us and took care of everything we needed. The support was the key part for me - I would gladly rent again from him. I did not do a full package tour with him, but John and his team are professional and responsible - if they promise something, it will get done, and if there are problems, they will fix them.

An excellent week in the Masai Mara.
We spent a week on safari in the Masai Mara and from being picked up at the airport to being delivered back to the airport everything flowed seamlessly. Our safari guide " George " was marvellous and we saw all we wanted including Black Rhino and a leopard carrying a kill unconcerned by how close we were to it. His knowledge was good and he involved us in everything he did. I would strongly recommend CK to any prospective safari goer.

CKC was affordable; we felt like friends instead of clients and enjoyed this great experience
The director of CKC went out of his way. Even when the Safari was over, he helped us plan the rest of our time travelling independently to Mombasa, Kilifi, Malindi and Lamu. The advice was invaluable. He even met us on our return to Nairobi, and took us to the airport for our flight home to SA. The tour accomodation was superb. I would have liked to stay much longer. I wish the CKC every success.

Well organized trip through Kenya and Tanzania
We travelled as a couple with CKC trekking to Mt Kenya and visiting several National Parks in Kenya and Tanzania. We found CKC through the Internet and contacted them by phone. The guides and drivers were really excellent and we implemented all the plan agreed with the CKC. For us it was a nice surprise because we had had no information before whatsoever what the Company is like. We took this risk and we were very satisfied.

Customised safari with great guide and wonderful hotels. Great experience with them.
We had a perfect 3 weeks honeymoon experience with this agency. Nothing to regret. They even took care of us when our flight coming back home was overbooking and we had to expend one extra night in Nairobi.

A wonderful family holiday celebrating our 50th anniversary
I spent two years planning this trip, communicating with John Muhoho frequently through email. We had lived in Kenya in the sixties, so we were trying to recreate experiences for our children and grandchildren. The entire planning experience was an adventure, as we tweaked and adjusted the schedule to work everything in and keep within the time frame of our grandchildrens' school holidays. Everything about the trip--the travel, the hotels and lodges, the driver-guides--was perfect, and we could not have had a better time. The personalization of the service was incredible, as we met with some old students and returned to the schools where we had lived and worked. So this was a very personalized tour, with a lot of interaction. But we started with a schedule put together by CKC and adjusted it for our family. I have no doubt we would have had a similar exciting time without the "tweaks," so I would recommend CKC for the professionalism of his work and his staff as well as the ability to work with a client to plan a perfect holiday.

A wonderful honeymoon in Tanzania
We had a great experience in July 2014 on the 6-day safari CKC organized for us. John was a great help in getting everything organized and was very responsive to our special requests. Our trip went from Arusha, to Lake Manyara, to Serengeti, and finally to Ngorongoro. Our driver/guide, also named John, was really friendly and always seemed to find the animals before any of the other drivers. The hotels CKC had booked for us were all great – very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the experience immensely. Thank you, John and John.
Safety, Safaris & Adventure
We looked at several different options for our photo safari, and eventually chose a one-week tour suggested by John Muhoho from CKC Tours, Travels & Carhire.
We lifted off Nairobi’s Wilson Airport, heading for adventure. Indeed, watching the tiny planes landing on Mara River Airport’s dirt tracks a little while later, we couldn’t help but think of films like King Solomo’s Mines, already feeling like adventurers ourselves.
What followed were seven perfectly organised days in the Mara River Lodge and engaging – if admittedly not quite as dangerous as we felt adventurous, what with the perfect organisation – safaris. As luck would have it, we got to see all of the ‘Big Five’ – elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion & leopard – and even got to watch the migration of zebras and wildebeests over the Mara river, complete with some of the latter involuntarily feeding the crocodiles.
From the lodge itself, we could easily spot hippopotamuses resting in the water and crocodiles basking in the sun, although our sense of adventure and danger was once again foiled by the presence of an electric fence standing between them and us – admittedly an understandable safety precaution. Losing the odd tourist to an angry hippo or hungry croc would probably be bad for business.
All in all, it was a remarkably enjoyable and surprisingly relaxing holiday. Our gratitude goes to John and the Mara River Lounge staff – especially our guide Patrick – for the perfect organisation that made this trip such a wonderful experience.
great private safari delivering everything that was promised
We choose CKC because of John prompt reactions on our e-mails.
We had a 3 day private safari, and especially our driver George made it real pleasure.
We managed to see all animals we wanted to see, amazing how George seemed to be able to find any animal on request: it took him 45 minutes to find mating lions,
