Pleasurable experience, almost all of wildlife seen
We had an excellent experience visiting Masai Maara, Nakuru and lake Naiwashi parks. Already on the first evening we saw most of Kenya's famous wildlife and even two lion cubs as a wonderful bonus. I would like to give special credit to our driver Mark for his incredible driving skills, knowledge of the hidden tracks and always been ready to help. We were on the trip with 2 kids and the driver was always very attentive and flexible when offering the departure times.

Efficient, dedicated and most competent staff, with a first class driver
Excellent communication with the tour operator, who replied to all our questions quickly, even during weekends and evenings. We did a three days Masai Mara safari and saw all the big five, even a rhino, because our driver Edward communicated efficiently with other drivers and rangers and was able to locate all animals. Although most of the roads were muddy and under water, unlike many other 4x4 vehicles, we never got stuck in the mud or got in any trouble. Edward is a first class driver, we felt safe all the time. He was also attentive to all our needs with discretion and good will. Best value for money. We will use the services of this operator again

The service is good and the price is reasonable.
Our guide Raymond is great. I took a lot pics about animals, including the big five. The iternary is well designed. For me, the two days in masaai mara and the half day at Hell's gate national reserve are unforgettable. Highly recommend the mountain bike riding at Hell's gate, it's awsome!

Hospitable
It was such a great time! We charged the plan that we went to masai village on the first day and full day hame drive on second day.
Thanks to out best driver Edward we were able to see BIG5 in a day! He always check the radio and spot for the animals even for a rhino! He has so many knowledge not only for aminals but also masai culture, kenya culture too. After the game drive we went back to our hotel earlier because Edward thought it would rain soon. And he was right. Right after we went back, UT started raining. If we continue safari we would totally get soaked. I heard some of the other tours stuck in the mud and couldn't get out so they ended up staying in a car for a night. Thanks to our guide we didn't have to do that.
Anyway I really enjoyed a lot and it's worth going!

Edward gave us the best information and positions to see the animals.
The price that I paid for this safari was about one third or one half of what everyone else paid for almost the exact same experiences. The food was great, meeting the masai people was amazing, and our group was able to see every bucket list animal.

Raymond is the best
I had truly the best experience. My driver was Raymond and he was so kind and helping the whole time. The safari experience was breathtaking. If you have the opportunity to go to the Maasai village to meet the tribe please do. Overall I had the best time and made amazing connections with the staff and Maasai people. Amazing time and highly recommend

Enthusiastically informational and Sweet
The value for your money is beyond anything I could comprehend. The budget safari was more than I ever expected, and I would’ve been willing to pay triple what I did for the experience I got

Amazing experience
Positive remarks:
- Incredible experience, 7 days was a good time
- We saw 4 of the big five
- We saw a lot of different African animals from so close, we could nearly touch them
- We saw a lot of different types of birds
- As a budget safari, the accomodations were quite good
- All the people we've met are very nice and helpful
- The parks we visited were very different from eachother, it is really worth it to go to the different ones
Negative remarks:
- Our guide was not really interested in the animals. We had more a driver than a guide, we hadn't a lot of information and some were even false.
- Some activities needed additional fees (Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate, Masaï Village)
- Masaï Village in Masaï Mara is not worth it, it is a tourist trap
As a conclusion, we ended the safari with stars in the eyes and dark rings under them.
