Real time experience
I spent a great deal of time searching the web and corresponding with potential Kenya safari operators trying to find an operator that was both reasonably priced and willing to offer a flexible customized tour. Real African Tours was among a small number of operators that met these criteria and the only one which provided prompt responses to my many questions.
The safari provided by Real African Tours exceeded my expectations. I chose to save as much money on accommodations as possible, so the accommodations were simple but comfortable, the food was excellent, the 4x4 vehicles were good, but most importantly the drivers/guides were excellent. The drivers were very knowledgeable about the parks we visited and were able quickly locate the best areas for viewing the animals. I would recommend Real Afcian Tours to anyone interested in photography. The drivers were very patient, and accommodating. I would often have them reposition the vehicle several times in order to get the best possible angle for my pictures. What a trip!

My Fears squashed!
I booked this trip after a recommendation from a cousin who had used Real African Tours before. Not having been to this part of Africa I had no idea what to expect. Quite honestly, I feared for the worst. On arrival I was pleased to see that my fears were unfounded. The lodge in the Mara was clean, spacious and the staff fantastically friendly and helpful. The unit we were given was large spacious and more than adequate. The lodge is quite remote so you do need to be prepared to move around to get provisions and to fully enjoy your stay. Maasai Mara is breathtaking! The drives were interesting as I got to see animals I only saw on TV. I spent three days in the Mara and I will be forever grateful to the Real African Tours team!
