15 Day Kenya-Tanzania Safari
5/5


We completed a 15-day Kenya-Tanzania Safari in August, 2015.

After witnessing the Great Migration in Masai Mara on Day 2 of the safari, it was easy to think it couldn’t possibly get any better. But it did…repeatedly.

This was our second safari with KETS, so we had the highest expectations and weren’t disappointed. In Tanzania, we followed the northern circuit: Serenageti (Western Corridor and Seronera), Olduvai Gorge, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara. We returned to Kenya via Amboseli, then spent the final 5-days in Tsavo East, at Bigi camp on the Galana River. For elephant lovers who enjoy being in the middle of remote wilderness, Bigi Camp is for you.

A few highlights: spent 2-nights at Sarova Mara. The buffet alone would make this a destination, but add Masai Mara and brace yourself for stellar experiences. In the Serengeti, we stayed at Mbalageti Lodge. The sweeping views across the plains of Serengeti are unbeatable. A lion spent the night under our cabin, and its low rumblings kept waking us up…but we didn’t complain! At the Bigi Camp, we loved observing tuskers wandering around the tents. As vegetarians, we were pleased to see that most of the buffets at the lodges we stayed were free of animal products.

Three Day Maasai Mara Tour with Daniel
5/5

our safari accommondation with KETS was perfect and we like to recommend this tour operator. Paul replied all my mails immediately and was very helpful and patient with all our wishes and requests. Banktransfer and rest balance payment on site worked without problems. Daniel our Driver guide is very experienced, friendly and helpful and always exact in time. We enjoyed the game drives him very much. Our camp was Ashnil Mara and we where very very amazed about this camp. In the night we heared the soud of the hippos and a lot of other animals, dinner, lunch and accommondation where perfect. Only the way from Nairobi to the Mara Gate is unpleasant, it takes 5-6 hours and there is very much traffic and a very long rough road. Next time we will do a fly in safari with tour operator KETS.

Excellent choice with you children
5/5

We made the best choice:my 4 yo son and me had a wonderful time with Jackson in the safari and the other drivers guide in Mombasa area.
The choice of accomodations has been excellent, nice cars, safe driving, great care to satisfy our desires and reasonable price.
We strongly reccomend expecially for a safari with children and probably will be back someday to see other areas.
Contact Paul and you'll get the best.

Perfect safari
5/5

My wife and I had a fantastic tour for eight Days. We started in Tsavo and Went on to Amboseli and Masai Mara and a bit more. Our guide was great and we had the luxury to have the car for ourselves, which I believe made a big difference. All the lodgings were fine! I can only recommend KET to others.

You can't go wrong with Kenya Expresso Tours and Safaris LTD!
5/5

This was my second safari with Kenya Expresso Tours.  I went on my first safari in Kenya with them in 2022 and I had such a great experience that first time that I returned this year (in 2024) for a second safari with them.  I've decided that I'm going to make it an annual tradition to go on a Kenyan Safari with them every year.  Their safaris will left you blown away...

Paul, our guide, is great.  He's so attentive and he tailors the safari to my needs and tastes. The lounges have always been great.  I've done other safaris in South Africa and Namibia with other tour companies, but Kenya Express Tours in Kenya have been the best thus far.  I'm already looking forward to next year's safari with them, which will be my third.

You can't go wrong with Paul and his crew at Kenya Expresso Tours.  Any questions - please don't hesitate to contact me.

Our Seventh Safari with KETS
5/5


We always use KETS when visiting our Sheldrick elephant orphans. KETS provides reliable service to the Sheldrick Centers at Umani, Ithumba, Nairobi, and Voi. As we need to bring our own food, the driver helps us shop at the Emali food stalls.
Paul Mwendwa, KETS owner, is a trustworthy and honorable gentleman. He always provides a competitive quote. We highly recommend KETS, especially for Sheldrick patrons.
