Fantastic Safari!
5/5

We had an excellent time on our safari. We went on a four day safari to the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Both were excellent. We saw lions, rhinos, hippos, elephants, antelope, giraffes, warthogs, cheetahs, snakes, crocodiles, the wildebeest migration, zebras, secretary birds, baboons and so much more. Our tour guide and driver Sirus was excellent. If anything I would recommend longer in the Masai Mara. It is excellent value for money. The accommodation and food was good. The accommodation is quite basic, but the safari was such a good price so I was expecting this. I would happily pay a bit more for a more comfortable camp. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Organized & Friendly
5/5

Last November we booked a private Safari with Africa Flash Mc Tours and it was a wonderful experience. From the start Peter was very clear on pricing, what was included and provided a clear itinerary for 2 days of safari. We were picked up on time, had a great driver, Edward, who really made our journey great. He was a very good driver, very safe, friendly and most of all fun! He brought us to Kilaguni Lodge, which took our breathe away by its beauty. I highly recommend this lodge and Tsavo West for its magnificent landscapes. Especially the sundowner experience made us completely fall in love with the park. All in all, wonderful organization, great information provided to us and friendly and fun staff!!!

Amazing
5/5

We booked with Africa Flash McTours with Peter and from the start his communication amazing. I probably sent over 30 emails of questions and changes as the time approached and he answered every one of them and accommodated us with changes.
We did the 2 night camping which was exactly what we though it would be canvas tent under a thatched roof on concrete foundation. It was clean and comfortable. Mosquito nets were provided although we did not have a problem with them this time of the year.
We also did 1 night in lake Nakuru. I wish I had done more research or asked more questions. The lake is growing and many animals have either left or have been moved. The pink flamingos were not really visible and that many. It's not as great as the Masai Mara where our driver would 4 wheel drive over the plains to get to the animals. I would not recommend Nakuru, unless you don't mind sticking to the road and seeing animals from a far.
We asked Peter to for a pick up from the airport. Our hotel was going to charge us double and he provided a more reasonable price.
Peter picked us up the next day at our hotel and took us to our driver and the other passengers for the Safari. Antonio (who was the best) was our driver. He loves the animals and you can tell he loves for us to see them! We saw all but the lepoard of the Big 5 on the first 1/2 day drive
The next day was amazing as well. We drove the the other side of the park to the Mara river and saw Hippo and Crocs. Simple amazing.
overall I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a Safari, if you can handle a little bit rougher stay and are on a budget I would suggests the camping. 2 nights was perfect! Peter made all of our transfers easy and affordable.

Excellent value for money
4/5

We did a 3 day safari in Amboseli in November and had an excellent time. Communication with the agency was a bit slow before the trip, but once on the road everything worked out perfectly well. We were just a group of two but had the car to ourselves, which made it possible to get just the programme we wanted. Our driver/guide went out of his way to show us the best of Amboseli and delivered much more than we could have expected.

Excellent safari experience and good communication!
5/5

I booked the safari experience with Peter at a short notice of about 1 month and with some changes etc he did manage to provide us with what we wanted. There were a few bumps along the way but Peter was always very accommodating and excellent in looking after us. All his staff were very helpful and knowledgeable as well.

We did Masai Mara Reserve, Lake Nakaru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli National Parks.

Highly recommended genuine company and person.

Amazing safari, everything was taken care if and best driver ever!
5/5

I booked a safari for myself and two of my friends visiting from abroad. We were picked up Nairobi early on a Saturday and drove straight to Sarova Salt Lik. Although it's quite a long drive, having a good driver who considers safety to be a bigger priority than getting faster destination made the ride way more relaxed. We stayed at an amazing lodge next to a water point in the middle of the park. Both the evening and morning safari were amazing, we saw all but the Rhine from the big five. Our driver was an amazing spotter and a great guy to have a conversation with. We did not have to deal with payments or anything else. Straight to the hotel room or dinner. All in all an amazing trip where we did not have to worry about anything.

Well organised, friendly and professsional
4/5

I booked and confirmed my 4D/3N trip to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru with Africa Flash Mc Tours at extremely short notice during the Christmas/New Year holiday season. Although I had not received a receipt of payment, or details of my additional hotel bookings and airport transfer by the time I departed, I was pleasantly relieved to be greeted at the airport by a driver who took me to a hotel that was already paid for. My whole trip was smooth and very well organised, and the only thing I had to worry about was making sure my camera was charged! One thing to note, the actual programme did not exactly match the itinerary that was suggested - I understood my itinerary included 2 paid entires to Lake Nakuru, although our driver only brought us for 1 entry. Overall, I am extremely happy with the services of Africa Flash McTours. They are also kindly organising to send me my laptop charger which I carelessly left at the Masai Mara tourist camp. Thanks, Peter and team!

5/5

Peter is a great person, very helpful.
Masai Mara is amazing, our driver James is a great guy, funny and we saw A LOT of animals.
The sopa hotels are great! Amazing food, beautiful rooms! Lake Nakuru is nice, you won't see as many flamingos as you think, but the hotel is just beautiful! lake neivasha is beautiful you can take a risky boat trip to see hippos, quite an adventure!
At the beginning I thought the tour was to expensive, but I spoke with other tourists at Masai and they told me they payed more than us and were not even staying in nice hotels..
so i totally recommend this tour!
Peter helped us even at our last day at Nairobi he gave us a city tour!

Private 8 day, 7 night safari
4/5

Peter was fantastic throughout the whole process of organizing the itinerary, communicating promptly with us to the point of collecting us from the airport. Was very nice working and meeting Peter.
The safari was great. It was organised exactly as we had expected and our driver Leonard was awesome. The places we stayed in varied from good to fantastic and I recommend ending your trip at Amboseli National Park.
My only criticism would be that the safari van is in need of an upgrade. The window latches were broken so you could not lock them (bad on the dusty roads) and also some seats were unable to recline back. Also on the itinerary it stated binoculars and books would be provided, however, this was not the case.
I definitely recommend working with Peter again in the future and if I were to go back would look to have a safari organised again with Peter and MC Flash Tours.

Great overall experience!
5/5

We booked the 3 day 2 night safari at the Masai Mara. Communication beforehand was excellent and pickup from our hotel in Nairobi was great. The journey to and from the national park was excellent, our driver and guide James went above and beyond to cater to the needs of everyone in the group. The camp site had all the facilities we required and we were able to meet some great people along the way.

Would definitely recommend this safari for anyone looking to see the big five on a budget but looking for a great experience!
