Provided us an absolutely INCREDIBLE experience!
5/5

I couldn't have asked for a better experience with ExplorerKenya! From Day 1 of planning, Robert was EXTREMELY responsive to my many many emails (I had never been to Africa or done anything like a safari) and answered every question I had.

What really made our trip incredible though was the guide Robert paired us up with for our 3 night 4 day safari in Masai Mara. Njinu was AMAZING. It's honestly hard to even find the words to describe what an incredible time we had, thanks to him!

We talked to many others at our camp who most definitely didn't have the same experience. Many said their guide simply drove around and stopped at ever elephant or giraffe. Njinu was VERY different!

We truly could feel that he had made it his mission to show us the Big 5 (achieved in only two days!), and many other animals. His 20+ years of experience meant we got first-rate education in every bird, mammal, and insect we saw. It seemed there was nothing he couldn't find and his passion for tracking and educating his clients was palpable.

If you've never done a trip like this before, it can be a little nerve wracking to plan from afar, but if you use ExplorerKenya you WILL be taken care of. And, you'd be more than well off to request Njinu as your guide to ensure a once in a lifetime experience!!

Amazing experience !
5/5

Professional and on-time the driver was even there before the expected departure time which was early in the morning. All of that despite the fact that the tour was organized on a short notice.
All required information was provided quickly and in a timely manner.

The drivers know the very well the various parks and where to possibility find the animals.
We saw all that we came looking for in Nairobi Park while some other safari cars where left wandering about. Once the animals spotted we had very close views of them thanks to our guide's skills and experience.
He made sure we could see as many animals as possible and we were delighted!

We couldn't have chosen better for the tour.
Thanks to Johnathan and Robert for arranging it.
We highly recommend them for any safari in East Africa.

PS. Tell them which animals you want to see before booking and they will advise on the most suitable park in the area to see those .

12 days Kenya safari
5/5

What a safari we had. Our guide, driver, and organizer Jonathan made our adventure. He was with us the whole trip. We saw lions and cubs eating their prey. Leopard in the tree with his prey. Elephants, giraffes, hyena….we saw everything. Jonathan knows where to find them and the patience to wait. We were safe, in wonderful lodges and luxurious tents. Food was good and lots of it. This was indeed a trip of a life time. Thank you so much Jonathan and Explore Kenya Safari’s

Second Safari in 3 Years With Explorer Kenya
5/5

This was the second time I’ve booked a Safari in Kenya through Kenya Explorer. This time we had Bernard “Njinu” as our guide and he was really fantastic. Not only was he caring about the animals and incredibly knowledgeable but also had a great wealth of local and international geopolitical info. We failed to find one question that he didn’t know the answer to. Picking a safari provider can be hard but I think Kenya Explorer is a good pick. You can find cheaper rates but those companies come with bad reviews for customer service and guides. Also the price you see is the real price and includes park fees (many others exclude that). What I really like about this company is all guides have 10 yrs of experience as a minimum. I have done both the most budget and mid-range option for the Masai Mara and if you can pay the extra amount the food and accommodations in the higher-priced options are worth it. I would fully recommend without reservations!

5/5

I had a great day at the Nairobi National Park our guide Jonathan was great and very talented As a guide with a huge knowledge on the different animals we saw. We were lucky enough to see 3 of the Big five so it was a great experience for me and my family. I can Recommend Explore Kenya and most especially Jonathan we definitely be going on more safari trips with them.

Once in a lifetime trip with an amazing company and guide!
5/5

Our trip with Explorer Kenya was AMAZING! We did a full week safari through Masai Mara, Nukuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli. On the way we saw all of the big 5 up close and personal, plus gorgeous scenery on all of the drives. With almost 20 years experience, our guide Jonathan was great at finding wildlife and sharing information on what we saw. When he pulled out his camera a handful of times, we knew we were seeing something special! Prior to the trip, Robert at the Explorer Kenya office was very timely with reponses and able to help us adjust our itinerary to be the perfect week for myself and my friends. We had two other day tours on our trip with other outfitters, and Explorer Kenya was the most professional, helpful, and informative. Asante Explorer Kenya!
