Budget, but yet complete!
Kenya Budget Safaris (Esther) was extremely attentive and helpful. She responded to my enquiries swiftly. She assured me that she’s monitoring every step of my trip. Kenya Budget Safaris work with experienced drivers/ guides. Patrick has been leading safari trips for 10 years. He knows all of the corners of the park. He brought us to these amazing wild animals; he made sure that we got the best view while respecting the wilderness. What makes it even more memorable is that he let the stories of these animals unearth not only through his recollection but also by letting us witness the scene that unfolded in front of our eyes. It takes great intuition to stop the car so that we could see animals playing, fighting, hunting, and even paying respect to the dead.

Maasai Mara & Nakuru 4 Day 3 Night Safari
KBS was recommended by an expat living in Nairobi, and by a Nairobi business associate "local". Esther, who helped us put together the trip, is flexible, knowledgeable, and reachable anytime (we were in Nairobi on business and unsure of our schedule until the last minute). Wanjau, our guide, driver and game finder, is a rock star! He's, informative, funny and relentless in helping everyone find what they were looking for, and he shared information about the Masai tribes people and local culture. Michelle and the rest of the staff at the Ol Moran Tent camp where terrific. Take good binoculars and a long lens for your camera.

We hade a very good trip, we enjoined every minite by seeing the most beautiful things in Africa.
We had the best guide for the game drives in Tanzania. We saw all of the animals real close. We felt safe and well educated.

This clue is in the company name but we felt we really got our money's worth and had a GREAT time.
Everything went smoothly, excellent communication with the office and ground staff. A friend recommended this company after her two student sons and young friends used them. Excellent value.

No effort at all
I was travelling on my own, and thought I may be presented with "sorry, we can no longer do this trip/tour/visit because you are only one person". In stead, I got, "You want to do xyz? No problem at all. Let's get going".
Food was very tasty everywhere, although beer was not necessarily cold.
The tented camp was clean, fresh bedlinen, and best of all, hot water showers, even at 5am in the morning.
Simon, the tourguide, was the right balance of approachable, but not in your face constant information. If I wanted to know something, I could ask, and he explained.
Even the last part to Lake Nakuru, with just me and Simon, it was great to have relaxed conversations on the way there and back.
I was fortunate with a great group of fellow travellers.
The tour vehicle was clean, comfortable, and great for game viewing.
I will recommend the tour, the timing and the company.

We had a Wonderful Time!
Bob & I just want to say what a fantastic time we had on our private Safari. Patrick was the best! We learned an awful lot about Kenya and he was very good in tracking down the lions (which is what I wanted to see). I would recommend you to all of my friends and to anyone else in looking to come to Africa. You are the best and in my opinion prices are too low for all that you do for your clients and I hope to get back there again to see more. Take care Esther and tell Patrick we say Hello!

Easy communication for an amazing safari
Esther was really nice and helpful. We saw lots of animals, the accommodation was really ok for this price, and the vegetarian food was amazing. Our guide, Maxwell, was really nice as well. I recommend it 100% !

My first trip to Africa!
I am finaly back home and relaxed after the fabulous long trip to Kenya.
I am writing you to express the impressions of the first 6 days (safari) which Kenya Budget Safaris organized for me and my friends.
We all agree that everything was beyond our expectations. The profesionalism of Edwin (our driver and guide) was the sixth which have been added to the big five! So friendly and with great knowledge of the wild life he have been the best guide that could we ask for!
The lodges where excellent.
Thank you so much for making our dream come true with your excellent behavior and profecionalism!!!

Unforgettable African Safari Experience
My first African experience was beyond my expectation. Thanks to Kenya Budget Safari for the superb service. Our guide, Mousa/Moses was an expert, always on time and knows how to deal with his guests. Thanks for making my safari adventure an unforgettable one. Kudos, Esther!
