7 Day trip to Masai Mara and Amboseli
My family and I were very pleased with the services of Africa Flash McTours and Travel during our trip to Masai Mara and Amboseli. Right from setting up the itinerary to its execution, everything was organized perfectly. Though our trip was not finalized till the last minute due to COVID regulation, Peter was helpful right from the beginning, three months in advance, answering to my emails and messages. At no point I felt that he was not cooperating considering that there was no guarantee of our safari. While booking hotels, he ensured that my request for wheelchair assistance rooms were considered. Weekend was not an issue with him. He was available 24/7. He even helped us in getting our Kenya visa when my online visa agent did not respond to my calls in spite paying full amount in advance. Without Peter’s help our trip would not have taken place.
Peter has an excellent team especially his tour guide Simon. We had an amazing experience with Simon. He went above and beyond as our guide. His knowledge and experience in the parks helped us see all the major animals. He was also extremely patient and courteous, especially since we had someone who needed a wheelchair. He was always punctual and made sure we left early for all the safaris. Being young, he had the same enthusiasm as a normal tourist would have and went beyond his limits to make sure that we get an unforgettable safari experience.

Amazing
It started with excellent communication and planning with Peter. He gave the best options/alternative. All we prescribed for was delivered as committed. Very smooth and easy planning.
Excellent choice of Facilities and value for money including tour Vehicle which was rigged with charging equipments, Distilled water, Extra Zoom Camera and Binoculars just incase you need.
Tour Guide Edward made the entire experience amazing. His reliability and vast knowledge of the entire Massai Mara eco system was very useful. He not only Could Track the large game but has good knowledge of the Plants/trees and birds too. He made sure we had the best views and photo sessions all this safely. The kids enjoyed this. He was Very professional and helpful on all the days we were with Edward.

Incredible experience
We had the most amazing experience traveling through Kenya with Africa FlashMC tours. I typically arrange our travel on my own, but for our family’s first trip to Africa I wanted the expertise of a guide. Communicating with Peter leading up to our trip could not have been easier. He always responded in a timely manner; he patiently answered all of my questions and he was flexible and accommodating in creating the perfect custom itinerary for our family with two little kids. Our actual tour surpassed all of our expectations. We visited Ol Pejeta and Samburu and enjoyed both. Our guide, Edward, truly made our trip. By the end of our tour Edward felt like family to us and we were sad to say goodbye. Our kids loved him and we did too. He shared so much knowledge with us and we appreciated his graciousness throughout. Would highly recommend!

Very accommodating and knowledgable
We had a lovely time in our 3 day safari with Africa Flash McTours and Travel. Starting with a really easy and accommodating way of communication before the travels with Peter, to a really perfect trip in Masai Mara with our guide Edward!! We had so much fun, saw so many animals and learned so much about Kenyan wildlife. We stayed at Basecamp Masai Mara which was also a really nice location, good food and good vibes. Would book again with Flash McTours and Travel!

Well organized, reliable, tailored to our wishes
We travelled as a couple of two with Africa FlashMc in August/September 2021. We are avid and experienced photographers and bird/wildlife watchers.
Booking process: smooth, prompt and always taking our requests into account. Tailoring the trip to exactly our needs worked very well.
Overall handling of the trip: worked very well, all transfers were smooth, without hassle or delay. Connecting flight from the seaside into Nairobi was booked, transfer arranged – all well.
Hotel selection: according to our requests. Rooms were always booked in very good/best positions within the respective hotels. Except for one place all hotels were up to standard and in a good location.
Route: exactly to our requests.
Vehicle: up to standard, clean, fully operational. We strongly recommend booking of a full off-road vehicle with 4WD etc. Pop-up roofs provides best wildlife viewing.
Driver/Guide: well trained, experienced. Very friendly and attentive. Very open to our wishes and suggestions while also suggesting alternatives or improved variants. Knowledgeable about wildlife and birds (and building up expertise constantly!). Extremely attentive to our wishes as photographers (having the vehicle positioned in perfect angle for light and object). Very alert to spot wildlife and suggest photo stops. In a nutshell: best guide we ever had, will definitely travel with him again!
Overall: smooth, hassle free organization, cost benefit ration fully justified, attentive organization, great guide! We can fully recommend FlashMc.

Unforgettable safari in Kenya!
Eight unforgettable days in Ol Pejeta Conservancy and Masai Mara Park with Africa Flash McTours and Travel. Professionalism and courtesy are the strong points of this reliable tour operator.
Our family group appreciated the excellent organization of Peter, the company’s owner, the kindness and carefulness of Edward, Simon and David, our safari guides. Thanks their good spots, we sow a lot of animals), very close (the big fives and many others and the Great Wildebeest Migration crossing.

The tour operator was very responsive and detailed.
From the beginning, Peter was great with helping us to plan our safari trip. He was super responsive and worked with us on the price. He detailed out the itinerary, the costs, and what was included and not included. He was able to book us at our preferred lodge, Sarova Mara Game Camp. He was able to book our hot air balloon ride and our village visit.
Once we arrived, Eddie was waiting for us at the airport and was our guide throughout the tour. He was knowledgable and friendly, timely, and experienced. The lodge accommodations were nice and the buffet was really good. The wifi was a bit spotty. Eddie was able to bring us back to the airport also when the tour was over.
We also chose this company because they had an ideal cancellation policy. We arrived a bit late on day one but we were able to fit in an evening game drive for one hour or so. The next day we did a full-day game drive and then went to the village in the early evening. The last day we did the hot air balloon ride in the early morning and then left for the airport.
It's important to note that with the 3-day option, you only get ONE FULL DAY for the game drive. But given that we've been on safari before it was enough for us. I'd recommend this tour company. Lastly, they went out of their way to return a lost item to me. Which I really appreciated.

Incredible Safari
I am very happy that I chose this company for doing an incredible 10-Day-Safari in Kenya. I spent 1 night in Nairobi, 2 in Amboseli, 1 in Lake Naivasha and 6 in Masai Mara. Peter organized the trip and the communication with him was great and easy. My guide for the whole trip was Edward and I can highly recommend to ask for him as your tour guide. He really made the safari special. I had a very good time with him and we had a lot of great sightings: an inredible amount of lions, cheetahs, leopards (all the big cats also with cubs and also lions and leopards mating), servals, a rhino, river crossings and so much more animals (elephants, buffalos, antelopes, monkeys...) and experiences. I have never seen so much on safari before! Edward always tried to get the car in the best position for viewing the animals so that I could get great photos. It was nice that everything was organized and I did not had to worry about anything but could enjoy every minute of the safari. The accomodations suggested by Peter were also great. I will never forget this holiday and have so many great memories of this trip. When I come back to Kenya, I will definitely book a trip with Edward and organized by Peter again!
Asante Edward and Peter!

Great experience!
We took 2 days safari in Amboseli National Park, it was an amazing experience with great guides. We discussed with Peter, via phone and e-mail about every detail of the trip without any hesitation.
Our guides, Edward and John were adaptable, responsive, with a true passion for making our journey as delightful as possible. Highly recommended!!

First class luxury wildlife adventure
We have never been on safari before and we booked this based on reviews and also that the accomodation seemed to be within the wildlife parks.
We came into contact with Peter and he was very clear about costs and the itenary, he helped to reassure us that we would be refunded if covid issues meant we couldnt travel from Sweden.
We didnt really expect the accomodation to be so luxurious, and we didnt realise that the tour was only for us. We were the only ones in the large 4x4 safari vehicle so we had great service from our two guides Edward and John. Between them they had over 25 years experience. I was baffled how they could find their way around the vast parks without using any kind of map. They were great spotters and we managed to see the big 5 and so much more because of them. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who wants a great personal experience with top class service and accomodation.
Note about Covid issues in Kenya. On our last day (March 26 2021) the Kenyan goverment introduced new restriction, preventing travel between many regions of Kenya and caused the closing pubs in certain regions, with only take away food allowed. The Curfew time in Nairobi was reduced to 20:00 for instance. So this might affect future safaris in the region unfortunately. Please check the Kenyan goverment web site or contact Peter at Africa Flash Mc Tours and Travel.
