The driver was very friendly, knowledgeable & cool! Your staff at the camp were very hospitable & helpful.

Although the beginning of the safari was not as we had discussed (more people in the 4x4 van than was promised), the overall experience was good. The driver knew what he was doing and the itinerary was as discussed. After the safari Esther from the office was waiting for us at the drop off point and apologized for the problems at the start of the safari. She explained that it was due to the high season that there were too many bookings and not enough van so some groups had to be combined. We really appreciated that she took the time to hear our complaints and explained her side of the story in person.

An exhilarating introduction to Kenya
As a mature traveller, I booked with KBS after careful research, including contact with a number of previous Reviewers, to ensure their comments were genuine. That, and the immediate answers to all my many queries given by Esther Ndegwa, satisfied my reserve. I was not disappointed. From the moment I was met at Nairobi airport, to being escorted to the shuttle bus to Arusha for the Tanzanian leg of my safari, all was handled well. Bear in mind the name - Kenya Budget Safaris, and don't expect luxury accommodation or transport. But if you want good value, and an excellent opportunity to see some of Kenya's fabulous wildlife, this is for you.

Great experience with everything taken care of. Great value for money.
Esther coordinated everything for us on behalf of the company. She is tremendously patient and extremely prompt with her responses. The suggested trip was optimal and we saw almost every animal. Everything that was promised was delivered.
Our driver was Samy and he performed with sincerity, making every effort to ensure we spot the animals and get a good view.
The weather was excellent during the last week of July making the overall experience even more pleasant.
Tip to travellers... Do your homework so you know what to expect at each of the places.
My only disappointment was that I could not do the long tour of the gorges in Lake Naivasha because although I had plenty of time before my flight there was a member in our group who had to catch a bus from Nairobi.
But overall it was an amazing experience and I've been recommending the company and specifically Esther to all my friends. Keep up the good work
