In one word ... PERFECT ....
Most pleasant experience with Peter and Daniel, looking forward to visit again and make this a regular family recreational trip once political situation settles. Heads up Peter and Daniel.

Excellent Maasai Mara Safari thanks to Africa Flash Mc Tours (Peter and his team)
We (myself, my wife and my parents) went on Mara safari which was very well arranged by Africa Flash Mac tours - Peter was always ready to give different options and accommodate all our requests and adjust the plan as per our requirements. Good part is that he is so much flexible in the whole planning process and the actual experience was much ahead of expectations - be it the Land Cruiser, Driver-cum-guide, the hotel property including food and the amazing beauty of Mara experienced with the games drives on our Safari. It was a like-never-before experience for all of us and we would definitely plan all our next Safaris in East Africa with Peter and Africa Flash Mc Tours. Thank you Peter and the entire team!

5 nights, 2 National Parks, Experience of a Lifetime!
Topline: Book this company - you will not be disappointed! The experience of a lifetime!
Tour: 6 day/ 5 Nights Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli Safari
I booked this tour several months before embarking for a group of 4, two couples. Peter was extremely helpful via email, answering all of my questions very quickly, and providing thorough information for what to expect. He also helped customize the end, with border crossing into Tanzania to get to Arusha airport opposed to returning to Nairobi.
The tour itself was incredible! Our driver, Edward, was phenomenal. Request him. He was just awesome in every way. He was an awesome tracker, knowledgeable about the animals, was intuitive about what we were most interested in, and was very flexible in planning to meet our needs.
The safaris were phenomenal. The full day at Maasai Mara was my favorite - there were animals at every turn, including multiple sightings of lions and cheetahs. The sunrise is not to be missed! Nakuru was a delight, reminded us of Jurassic Park or some type of enchanted forest. I absolutely loved all of the rhinos, but I'm sure bird lovers would be in heaven. Our time at Amboseli was a bit overcast and we never did get a view of Kilimanjaro, but nbd. Somehow we ended up near herds of hundreds and hundreds on new babies! Baby wildebeests, zebras, and elephants everywhere! Taking first steps and learning how to run. My heart nearly burst.
The accommodations were really nice - much better than expected. The "budget" camp had tents bigger than my NYC apartment that included a toilet and shower. The luxury camps were full scale glamping and simply amazing. I do recommend bringing a small lantern and portable battery charges. Some run off of generators and have lights on timing schedules.
Food was generally buffet style and perfectly good for most people's tastes. We even had picky eaters with us and they were fine. Plenty of water was provided.
The drives between the parks are long (~7 hours). Consider a neck pillow and possibly a scarf to shield the sun. For this reason, I also recommend asking about personal tours. We had a group of 4 which was perfect in the van, especially when it came to the safaris and having spectacular views. We were originally set to be in a group of 7 which would have been less than ideal, and especially hard on those sitting in the back.
Huge shout-out to Peter and Edward for handling a few "unplanned" events. First, major luggage problems - 2 were delayed and 2 were lost. Peter and Edward helped us every step of the way, including changing our tour to private the day we landed, multiple trips to the airport to get luggage, and allowing us to use his cell phone to stay in contact with the airlines to help us locate that lost bags. Second was border crossing to Tanzania. Peter himself met us at the last park and personally drove us to the border and helped us every step of the way. He even arranged a colleague to pick us up in Tanzania to drive us the rest of the way to the airport to make our flight.
Payment: Yes - paying by wire transfer is perfectly safe and legitimate. This was a big concern for me beforehand and I found very little info about it to calm my nerves. Everything worked out perfectly and I do not think that there is a better deal to be found when it comes to value for your money.

Perfect experience in the wonderful Masai Mara with Edward, a very professional and friendly guide.
My girlfriend and I had an amazing time in a 4 days trip to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru national parks. Edward, our guide was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable about the wild life.

Excellent!
I was impressed with the prompt communication with Peter to organize the logistics of the trip. He was able to answer any questions.
Our driver, John was amazing! He communicated beforehand and was time conscious the whole time. He was very knowledgeable about the animals and the surrounding area, because of John we were able to see so many animals and we truly enjoyed our time. The hotel (Zebra Plains Camp) was also very clean and the employees were helpful and friendly. The food was on point!
We would definitely recommend this company to our friends and family!

Professional and the most reliable and reasonably-priced Safari Operator in Kenya
I have always wanted to do a Safari but I find the prices quite expensive. I have scanned different websites and thoroughly reviewed packages, reviews and prices until I came across Africa Flash Mc Tours. The offer was the cheapest I could find so I emailed the company (along with other companies just to compare and have other options). I got a response right away and I was impressed by how my inquiry was handled. I was even given more information that I haven't asked for but clearly needed to know. Everything was arranged right then and there and Peter was so kind to schedule me even though I haven't paid a single penny as a down payment. Come the 1st day of Safari, I was picked up by his driver and everything was smoothly arranged from food to accommodation, and of course the Game Drive, which was the main activity. I literally just had to go with the flow as everything was taken cared of. In the lodge where other guests are staying, there were some complaining on how their safari operators were not clear about what was included and what was not in the package. I couldn't help but be thankful that Peter actually takes the time to make sure that his clients are well-informed of the activities and not just shut them off as soon as the payment has been made. I think this is what most safari operators lack- the value of customer service! I will definitely recommend this company to friends especially because Kenya or Africa in general has a lot of safari operators in the industry and it's difficult to find one that you can actually trust.

Superb - have no hesitation recommending
I have now been on safari twice with Peter and his team. Each time Peter has gone out of his way to make our trip the best possible. On the first trip there were 5 people in the group and on the second trip their were 6 people in the group. Each and every person in both groups came home raving about their experience. I have no hesitation recommending Peter and his team.

Amazing Safari All The Way
This was my second safari with Africa Flash McTours, this time round with my parents and they were true to their every word. The communication was prompt and clear (Peter's English both written and spoken is very good and clear, something that highlights him from the other operators), the selected itinerary which we worked on together was delivered beyond our expectations. The guides, the hotels stuff were great. I recommend anyone who wish to travel to work with Africa Flash McTours.

Best Safari Experience
This was by far one of the best experience. The tour was well organised from start to finish. Staff communication was great. The driver was quite patient during the tour allowed us to see the animals up close and shared insightful information about how the animals interact. Never seen so many animals in one place. The chance to meet the Masai community and learn their wau of life was also a valuable experience. I would highly recommend it!
