The Best tour operator in Kenya
5/5

Our tour experience was much more than what we expected. Paul is excellent planner and flexible. He placed our comfort ahead of his profit. All booked resorts were high quality and rated ones. The driver Francis is a fine driver on Kenyan roads and in game parks. His experience and knowledge helped us see all that the parks had to offer, much more than BIG 5. We would certainly like to return and travel with KET. Highly recommend to any one coming to Kenya.

simply the best! thanks georg and paul
5/5

Paul replied to our mails immediately,and gave us a lot of advices in order to complete the planification of our tour.
The payment was done partially by bank and the rest directly to the driver Georg. He is kind, professional trustful,tireless and careful .We land at 3.am and he pick us up soon. The accomodations were amazing, over my expectation. The safaris( we did masai mara, naguru, kilimangiaro)were beautiful, Georg during the driving , informed us regarding enviroment and culture in Kenia,he is competent and permit us to photograph various species of animals.We followed the program, but Georg was always available to satisfy our requests.nevertheless the long distance in order to arrive in the different places, georg seemed tireless, and we felt always safe. At the end of the safari, we spent 4 additional days along the sea... but immediately we contacted again Paul to organize for us also some excursions there, georg was our driver and we met a sailer that spend with us the day in wasini marine park. The kenia expresso tour has a good local network, so your holiday is in good safe hands and doesn t lose the autenticity of the place .
I strongly recommend this serious organization.

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.

Safe trip with Kenya expresso
4/5

Me and my husband had a very pleasent trip in Kenya in September. Paul was very helpful to manage our trip. He answered to all our question in a short time. Kenya is beautifull. We had a very nice guide, our "big baboon" Lucky! He did all to make us feel safe and he always try to satisfay our request. Just a regret...we could not to see the leopard, but we saw lions, cheetah and a lot of beautifull and savage animals! We will never forget Lucky! All the Hotels was perfectly inserted to the african nature and very comfortables. Thank you for all!

Excellent service and amazing safaris -- took great care of me!
5/5

I went on a safari with KET on my own (had a long weekend free in Nairobi in between work travel), and I was a bit nervous about being in a new place on my own. KET took great care of me, and I felt safe and in great hands all the time. The service was door to door (they picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel in town) and the safari itself (at Masai Mara park) was amazing. I stayed at the Mara Sarova Lodge, which was absolutely stunning. We saw so much wildlife, and the driver was knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I would definitely recommend KET and plan to use them again!

very well organised tour , good services , professional guide and driver
5/5

The safari was perfect, our guide Jackson had a very sharp sense of spoting the wild-life so we had the chace to see almost of the wildlife we expected. Comunication was ok , service also ... though people living in Kenya should change a bit their perspective as they are only focus on "money " to help them promote their comunities.. and so because of this all the tourist are filling harrasted by theor presssue and attitude.
My personal advice for the tour companies that are working with the touristis that they all shall try to talk with the comunities ( Masai villagers , tribes we visit during safaries ) so that they change a bit their behaviour : they are way far from tradition and their main purpose is to swindle the tourist without practically offering anything in exchange.. they only think they are entitled to help for free... we promoted and sustain their comunties just by coming to Kenya and paying the visist to their villages... feethat do not include anything... just entry to booma... anything more they exect payment for it . First I think that they should do somthing to improove their life-style conditions, easy things that will not affect their traditional leaving in any way or change their spirit ( for start clean their spaces. We visited Wasini protected coral island.. and everywhere you could find pets, bottles, canns between mangrooves and corrals... not a nice sight and the community did not understand what " protection " means .. they are ony interested in the entry fees and not too much in protecting the nature ). Everybody knows what to expect when travel to Africa, but enviroment and wild life need to be protected , not explored so much.. in Masai Mara is a real chaos, every car is travelling free from roads, totall mess and stress for the poor animals ..and this year was poor in tourists - about 30% then ussual ...I do not want to imagine how it was in " good days "... in Lake Nakuru and Amboseli thinks are much better organised and car follow only the roads route , so animals are not so stress). MAGNIFICIENT AFRICA - a wonderfull land full of wild-life and tradition , one in a ife time adventure.

Fantastic Safari
5/5

Booked a 4 night 5 day safari with kets safaris in 2013 but had to cancel due to illness.
Paul Mwenda, kets boss, was very kind and kept my deposit open until I was better.
We left Nairobi with our driver/ guide Duncan and headed for 2 nights at Amboseli, 1 night Tsavo West, 1 night Tsavo East then dropped off at our beach hotel. Duncan was perfect, very knowledgeable, laid back and polite. Game drives were memorable sighting more animals than I can remember, highlights were Leopard, Lions, Cheetahs and surprisingly a family of hyenas.
I would very happily recommend Kets safaris, and would like to thank them for all their help.

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.
