Reviews
Fantastic experience!
We were very impressed with our one week Maasai Mara-Nakuru-Amboseli tour with Flash Mc Tours. Although we were a little nervous booking with a small company at first that, Peter was very responsive over emails and came personally to pick us up at the airport along with the driver. His hospitality immediately put as at ease and we knew we had made the right choice.
We then embarked on a week long journey through Mara (prepare for a long bumpy ride), Lake Nakuru, and Amboselli national park. The accommodation that Peter selected for us was excellent and got better as the days progressed. If you're going to Amboselli, we would highly recommend Kibo Safari camp - probably one of the best camps we've ever stayed in.
We would advise you to figure out what you actually want to see and do and then ask the company to tailor it for you. Also, enquire about times of the drives between the places as they were longer than we expected. The food was good, the water provided was plenty, we always felt safe and entertained by our drivers- David, Joshua and Leonard. The drivers were always on time and remained professional throughout. We would fully recommend this company. Thank you Peter and Flash McTours!

Well rounded
I recently took the Amboseli 2day, 1night tour with Africa Flash Mc Tours and had an excellent experience. Whilst the destination meeting expectations is a huge part of the trip, the customer service can really add or destroy the experience. In this case I must say that Leonard was an excellent guide and ambassador for his country. Africa Flash Mc Tours really went out of their way to respond to all my questions immediately and were very solution focused. Nothing got in the way of finding a solution for me.
As it was I ended up being a solo traveler and not only did they not increase the cost to me, they also didn’t cancel based on no other travelers taking part. That is dedication to customer service. Leonard knew that I was obsessed with seeing Mount Kilimanjaro from the Kenyan side and eventhough this is not guaranteed as there might be cloud cover, the moment he saw Kili “peeping out” from above the clouds he pointed it out to me. What a sight!!
We stopped at a Maasai village which I’m glad we did, however, I did find it a little “commercialized”… That could be from the basis that I am from Africa and had on some level romanticized what it would be like. I expected it to be a far more “remote” experience.
Leonard was very knowledgeable across a lot of different subjects which made it really special for me. We discussed from wildlife, to nature, culture, personalities regardless of nationality, the origin of different nationalities across the world, Corinne Hoffman’s book “The White Maasai” etc… Leonard was attentive and picked up on the things that would make a difference to me and then made sure I experienced them – for example climbing up a hill to a truly special view point….. no tourist trap experiences.
In closing, as a woman travelling alone, security is of the utmost importance and at all times I felt safe with Leonard on the Africa Flash Mc Tour. I cannot wait to have another trip with them.

Amazing time spent in the Masia Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli
The communications from Peter were excellent and very personal to us and our holiday. we had 2 amazing drivers James and Leonard both we would highly recommend due to their knowledge of the animals and game reserves/parks. We were fortunate enough to see all but a Leopard, which was fantastic as our last trip was 24 years ago, so we had been warning our 14 year old son that he may not see everything.
A couple of things we would do differently, accommodation in the Masai (Rhino safari camp) and Lake Nakura (Golden Palace Hotel)was very basic,not even easy to get cold soft drinks , so would upgrade on those, Kobi lodge in Amboselli was perfect.
Also we were surprised to find the Flamingoes at Lake Nakuru have departed to another lake due to too much fresh water entering the lake, it would have been nice to know this in advance.
All in all a fantastic time spent and over 4000 photos taken.

Excellent Safari
I had a great time on this safari. Our guide was amazing during our safari. He was very accommodating with driving around to see the animals that we wanted to see. He was also extremely knowledgable about each of the animals and gave us little tidbits on each. He even quizzed us on the topics for fun! I would highly recommend this company for any safari in Maasi Mara.

Amazing safari - more than we could ever have hoped for!
We had the most amazing safari experience!!! Unbelievable and undescribable!
Peter organised the entire trip perfectly - he responded immediately to all emails and questions and was always super helpful and obliging! All the timings were great and the whole trip was organised to a tee. He even managed to compile a great group with whom we travelled - no idea how he did that but we couldn't have wished for better.
Cyrus (also known as "The Doctor" who makes all safari dreams come true) was our amazing driver and guide for the week! Our group had the best time ever with him. Cyrus has incredible eyes that see every animal around, incredible ears that follow all radio signals and of course incredible driving skills for lots of African massages. He was also such a great companion to chat to and have fun with. Again: we couldn't have asked for better in any way whatsoever!
Thank you to the entire team!!!
And of course we are recommending to anyone who will listen to us :)

Great Experience, Very Professional
We did a 3-day, 2-night safari to Masai Mara from Nairobi. Everything was as planned and the staff and driver were very professional, timely and communicative. Peter was constantly in touch to ensure we had a good experience, and our driver to and from Nairobi was helpful and responsive to everything we asked to do. The Mara was beautiful and we would definitely book again through Africa Flash Mc Tours.

Our time in Africa-July 2016
My father and I recently booked a safari in Kenya with Africa Flash MC Tours. Peter was a tremendous asset in assisting us
with our planning and decision making. He was extremely responsive with all of our inquiries and equally accommodating. The price was quite reasonable and the service was exemplary. The hotels were really nice and they added significantly to the experience. Our guide, Cyrus, was extremely kind, professional and very well aware of the game parks. He treated us well and brought us to some amazing sights in Amboseli and the Masai Mara. I would highly recommend Peter, Cyrus and Africa MC Tours if you are considering a trip to East Africa.

Great time!!
My first trip with Africa Flash Mc Tours was to Amboseli National Park. We had a fantastic three days there. The hotel was great! Cyrus was amazing and the Park speaks for itself. Cyrus knew where to take us on any giving day to see the animals. Peter himself came to our place to introduce us to the driver. That was a nice personal touch. Everything went well! So much so, I planned another trip with them immediately after.

Great trip!
Peter orchestrated the logistics with speed and professionalism. From start to finish we were quite pleased with the entire tour. The Sarova Lodge in Mara was also very nice. Leonard was a fantastic guide. He was always on time or early and ensured that we saw all of the animals in the Mara (including the cheetahs!). We only did 2 days (1 night) in the Mara since we were pressed for time. Leonard ensured that we were able to do everything that we wanted to do (e.g., visit Masaai Village, stop at Market to buy jewelry) despite our time constraints.
I'm honestly shocked to read some of the bad reviews. We had such a great experience and would highly recommend this tour company.
