Once in a lifetime great experience!
The team has offered us a really great experience in safari, especially James who was our guide. James, not only he was very attentive to our needs, but also he did his very best for us to see as many animals as possible.

We have done a 6-days safari in Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. Our driver Felix has been a great guide and a professional driver. I really recommend to book the safari with them

Our guide was amazing and I would recommend to everyone!
The safari was amazing. I went to the Olpejeta and Samburu safaris. Our guide knew much about the animals and our many other questions. He was kind and went out of his ways to give us the best experience. Marvin was the best.

We Saw So Many More Animals Than We Expected Thanks to Marvin, the Guide
The Kenya portion of our Safari was handled by Karibu (affiliated/contracted by another company we booked with). Marvin was our guide for Masai Mara. He was reliable, knowledgeable, and able to get us where the animals were. We saw 4 of the Big 5 (no rhinos but they are rare there). We saw an entire pride of lions, a hyena nursing 2 cubs, a jackal, many giraffes, elephants, several cheetahs and cheetah cubs, zebras and wildebeests. Marvin had good relations with other game drivers, so they networked to spot animals and get us to the right places. He was polite, spoke excellent English, and could answer any question we asked. He suggested some modifications to the itinerary and left the choice to me. We did some of those and the activities we enjoyable. We as close as allowed to photograph the animals from the vehicle.
There was some kind of roadblock in Narok on the way back from Masai Mara to Nairobi. I am still not certain if it was legit, I suspect it was not. Our vehicle was detained but ultimately we were allowed to pass - I refused to answer their questions or to give inaccurate information. This was the only negative experience on the tour. That may be how things are in Narok but it does not appear that the tour operators are to blame.

We saw everything we could imagine and more!
We took a one day safari with a group of 18! We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, hyena’s, hippos, crocodile’s, cheetahs, even saw a mother and baby Hippo!! At the end of the day we had the opportunity to visit a Masai village. I’m pretty sure we were their primary source of revenue but we still had a good time learning about their culture, touring their houses, and shopping their market.
Thank you for the memory of a lifetime.
