Stay away from this company. Still owed a refund
I travelled as a group of 4 and booked a trek and safari trip with Peter at Africa Flash McTours and paid in full before my vacation. He never showed up for the safari trip and I was left on my own to book another tour when I was in Africa. He promised to refund me my money (a couple thousand US dollars) and after 6 months, he still has not.
There has been mixed reviews on this company on safaribookings. Im sure Peter (who runs this company) has had some good tours in the past, but there are also many many poor reviews you need to be mindful of because they are in fact true. His company is NOT registered with the tourism board and he has a history of not showing up on time, changing itinerary and cheating people their money.
For the past 6 months he has continued to say he would send the refund that he owes my group. Every week he fails to do so. He has stolen over $2000 USD from my group.
Do NOT risk your vacation with this company. Do NOT put your trust in Peter. There are so many other safari tour companies you can go with.

They made the experience more than amazing...
Visiting kenya is a Marvelous experience , but what made it even more magnificent was the effort made by this extraordinary company . Peter was very welcoming and helpful he came to pick us from the hotel and came to check on us by the end of the trip , also our guide cyrus was the best part of the trip he was so friendly and fun and was too keen to make us see all the animals and make the most out of our trip , all in all i would highly recommend this amazing company with very competitive prices compared to other safari companies and they are not compromising in their services as they are great

Amazing experience
Going on a wild safari was. Always a bucket list for me and when i decided to go to kenya with my friends i made a thorough search for all the safari companies and all the best places we can go there i couldnt help but find africa flash mc tours with its competitive prices compared to other companies as well as their amazing services. We had 5 day safari starting with kenya mountain and stayed at the most beautiful lodge ever called serena lodge peter got it at a very good price for us and we did river rafting amazing experience then headed to lake nakuru then lake naviasha and then the most beautiful of all was Massai mara . The accomodations in all those were perfect couldnt ask for more , this was our program which was organized by peter after so many debates with him to tailor the perfect plan for us to enjoy .
As for the company peter was very helpful from the very begining by his fast replies to all our inquiries and let me tell you this we had so many inquiries and he did a great job answering them all with great professionality , his recommendations for everything was more than great he personally came to pick us from the hotel and came to say good bye in the airport and to check on our trip
As for the guide we were too lucky to be with the amazing cyrus they call him the safari dr and indeed he is he can make a phd in safaris he is too professional , friendly and fun and always keen to make us see as most animals as he could we were too lucky to see the migration and the big five by his wonderful help
All in all me and my friends had a life time experience thanks to Africa flash mc tours i would highly recommend it to any one and if i could i would give it a 10 star not only 5

Adventure trip to Masai Mara
Most of the times we see creations by the human beings but seeing God's creation is a wonderful experience. We had EID holidays as we are staying in the UAE and thought of going somewhere. Kenya was chosen after some deliberation. Next was to choose the tour operator. We thought let the adventure trip start with another adventure of booking with a small unknown operator. The experience with Mc Tours has been very nice. Peter, who has been our contact point and Leonard (I called him Leonardo Da Vinci), who was our driver cum guide, both did their job better than what was expected.

Our Kenya Trip
Excellent tour of Masai Mara-Nakuru -Naivasha organized by Peter
In the beginning we were little skeptical about booking our tour with an unknown company like Africa Flash Mc tours. But as the trip progressed it proved to be an excellent choice . Our guide cum driver Leonard did a great job by taking us to Masai Mara and showing the Big Five.

Great safari experience
Great safari experience that will be never forgotten
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.
