Wonderful safari holidays: a tailormade itinerary showing us the diversity of NP in Kenya
We asked KET-safaris to arrange a private 11days safari and they did a very good job. We visited 7 NP, each with its own specific elements in scenery, fauna and flora. we spent quite some time on the road, but Joseph, our driver/guide was very responsible and carefull. In the NP's, he showed us his experencience by leading us to the big 5, amongst many others, giving us the opportunity to take some wonderful pictures.
The lodges and camps, where we stayed were a least good (on very scenic locations), some of them excellent (nice rooms/tents, excellent food) and all this for a good price/quality.
We even were lucky to see the Big Migration, which started early this year, giving us already a "preview" of the spectacle which was coming and due to the low-season in the parks and lodges it was still very quiet .
all this made our holiday to a wonderful experience

Amazing experience with a knowledgable guide.
I booked the tour all via email. Communication was great and the deposit was simple to pay via BACs. The Safari more than lived up to expectations. We were picked up from our hotel in Nairobi and the driver was happy to stop on route as when requested.
The lodge we stayed in was beautiful and the tour itself was breathtaking. We saw 4 of the big 5 in the 3 days we were there. Our guide was very knowledgable and did his best to ensure we had a memorable time.
Definately recommend. 10 out of 10!

Amazing customer service, value for money and great wildlife spotters
This is a great company. We are regulars now and can't recommend highly enough. Great lodges, opportunities to see wildlife and fabulous drivers/ tour guides. If you are going to Tanzania, ask for Saba to be your driver. He is great!

Elephant Babies!
We booked a 7-day safari with Kenya Expresso Tour (KETS). The owner, Paul Mwendwa,
responds quickly to inquiries. This was my fifth safari with KETS, so I know what to expect: a competitive quote, excellent service, integrity, a reliable vehicle, and a world-class experience that is both unforgettable and safe.
We are patrons of the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, so this safari was customized to allow us to spend time with out foster elephant babies at both Ithumba and the Voi Stockade, as well as the Nairobi Nursery. Paul was also our driver, and was always punctual with our visitation schedule at the orphanages.
Ithumba must be the only place on earth where one can view wild elephants in large numbers as they mingle with the orphans... an extraordinary experience.
We enjoyed several game drives in Tsavo East National Park. Paul has a good eye and strong instinct when it comes to viewing wildlife.
Regarding the exit covid test requirement, Paul made it easy: he took us to West Nairobi hospital that emailed results in 4-hours.
For anyone planning a Kenya / Tanzania safari, KETS should be your first contact.

Excellent, reliable, professional Safari company.
We have had many trips with KETS, never any problems. As usual our safari was tailor made with equal input from us and Paul the boss.
Duncan was again our guide, brilliant as always, superman eyes and encyclopaedian mind.
Highly recommended.

Brilliant bespoke safari experience
This is the second time I have used KETS and I was not disappointed in the slightest. Once again I had an amazing experience and was extremely lucky to see the animals in very close proximity. All correspondence with Paul via email was great and he was very responsive. I was very happy he was our driver for the trip! Paul is extremely knowledgeable, punctual and a credit to the company! The safari van is very comfortable with plenty of water bottles/juice provided. I highly recommend this company for a personalised experience and a lifetime of spectacular memories! I can't wait to return to Kenya with friends for another amazing Safari experience with KETS

Reliable and trustworthy people who strive to deliver the best package
We had a wonderful tour across Kenya in Amboseli, Naivasha and Masai Mara. I think our package was a good value for money. All hotels offered and booked by Kets were excellent. Our guide who stayed with us all 8 days was very good, patient, hard working and very knowledgeable.
We hope to go back to Kenya soon and strongly recommend Kets company.

Life-changing experience!
I traveled to Kenya for the first time ever at the end of May/beginning of June, 2022. I contacted several different safari companies to organize a safari for me, and I ended up choosing Kenya Expresso Tours based on their professionalism and detailed responses to my queries. Paul Mwenda was amazing throughout the whole process.
We created a plan together of what exactly I wanted to get out of the safari - it was all very personalized and tailored to my preferences. I even personally chose the vehicle for my safari. My recommendation to others is, of course, to choose the better 4x4 vehicle. It's only a bit more than a minivan, but it makes all the difference when you're on the Kenyan terrain.
In the end, I visited Nairobi, Lake Nakuru, the Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, etc. I went on a long boat ride, I rode in a hot air balloon over the Maasai Mara and visited a traditional Maasai village. The accommodation was AMAZING - really 5 Star! And the prices with KET are extremely reasonable - it was far more affordable to book directly with this company in Kenya than through a travel agency in my own country.
To sum things up - KET Tours was amazing. I had an incredible, life-changing experience at an extremely affordable price. Wonderful accommodation and meals, heavenly animal life and African landscapes, and an extremely knowledgeable and accommodating guide - Paul. I saw all the animals I wanted to see and returned home with about 2,000 amazing photos on my camera. A photographer's paradise!
I'm already packing for my second safari with KET in 2023!
