Fantastic safari experience. Very professional
5/5

I booked a safari experience with Explorer Kenya and it was the first time, our family of 4 visited Kenya for an African wildlife Safari. All the communication with Purity was super smooth and we exchanged quite a few emails before arrival. She was patient and prompt in all her responses and made sure all our questions were answered.

Upon arrival, we were picked up at Nairobi airport by our driver and guide, Bernard 'Njinu.' We headed towards Masai Mara. Our accommodation was well picked and coordinated by the company. When it comes to wildlife, Njinu is an expert. He knew every bird, animal, and even trees/plants by their name and we saw lots of them. Njinu is truly considerate about nature and wildlife and his depth of knowledge is very impressive. He could spot hidden animals and birds from such a distance, it was unbelievable - he has an "eagle eye!" He made sure to give us the best wildlife viewing experience in the most non-disruptive way. We left with fond memories of Kenya.

Thank you Explorer Kenya and Njinu!

Professional operator, incredible first African safari experience
5/5

I along with my family booked a 4-day trip of Masai Mara and 1 day in Nakuru, followed by a day tour of Lake Navasha with Explorer Kenya. Everything from the pickup from Nairobi airport to drop-off in Nairobi was very well organised.

We were very lucky to get Bernard “Njinu” as our driver and guide throughout the tour. He is a man of principle and really cares about nature and wildlife. He always knew what he was doing, giving us the best, unfiltered experience of witnessing the wildlife. There was no question that he didn’t have an answer to. Njinu ensured we have the best African Safari experience especially because it was our first one. We will definitely plan on coming back in the future and would love to have him as our guide again!!

Asante sana “Njinu” and Explorer Kenya!!!

Jonathan was an amazing driver, was very knowledgeable of the area and where to look for animals.
5/5

All the drivers talk together over radio to notify each other when and where there is something cool to see. Our car had incredible suspension and comfortable seats. Got to see virtually every animal plus watch lions mate from 20 feet away. Overall just an incredible experience.

Coolest thing I’ve done in my life. Jonathan was awesome - great guy, and an amazing guide and driver. Saw all of the Big 5 in Maasai Mara in 1.5 days, and more importantly had a blast doing it!!

The big 5 in 4 overwhelming days
5/5

My husband and I went on safari for our honeymoon and are still overwhelmed. We saw the Big 5 right on the second day. Our friendly and experienced guide Jonathan told us a lot about the wildlife, gave us insider tips and knew every place incredibly well. He gave us a very pleasant trip with his authentic, friendly and yet professional manner. We could always say where we would like to stop and watch the animals and we got the time we needed. We saw sooo many animals in 4 days. I think even pretty much all there is to see at Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. In this few days we just could switch off our mind and enjoy our honeymoon to the fullest. We can absolutely recommend Explorer Kenya and hope to come back soon :) thanks for everything Jonathan!
