good
i am happy with this tour...but we were 8 in our car..
our driver was very helpful..his name was Zac.he showed us the animals and showed their picture in his book...the only thing that i didnt like was Masai camp..the food and tents wasnt ok...i know that was a budget camp...but when i compare it to amboseli camp i think it was very bad...because amboseli camp was really clean...comfort with nice food. with 24 hours electricity!
i hope they can change the camp in Masai mara...

Spectacular Kenya!Exceptional Service!
The trip was fantastic! We had an excellent driver, Patrick!I
had the best guide/photographer in Hell's gate, James. And very
entertaining Nicholas for a boat ride in Lake Naivasha.
The country is breathtaking! I had never seen one as beautiful and as natural as Kenya!
I had seen wildebeests crossing the Mara River, the big 5, all the wild animals I only see on TV and
never even knew existed - Thumbs up to Patrick for his excellent driving skills!!The 2 nights stay in a tented camp in Masai Mara was the best experience and my favorite so far - I love the wilderness!^^
The people are also warm and accommodating, not to mention the beautiful men of Baboon Budget Safari who took care of everything exceeding my expectations! It was a budget travel. It wasn't a luxury safari yet it felt like one.^^*

7-day Machame Route & 4-day Lake Nakuru/Masai Mara Safari
I done the Kilimanjaro 7 day Machame route as well as the 4 day safari. Everything went smoothly and the company arranged everything so my journey was hassle free. The company staff were always there to help if need be. The safari was the best part of my trip, we had an amazing guide and I'd recommend this company to my friends.

Awesome Budget Safari!
I was on a trip to Kenya with my girlfriend and decided to go the budget route. We booked it through Baboon Safari and the experience was simply amazing. Dennis and his team were very professional and took care of all the travelers with utmost respect and care. Dennis was very flexible and accommodating with the needs we had. He has a vast network of tour guides that he can help set up people to accommodate their individual needs. Although not knowing what to expect we trusted him and his group of drivers and guides to educate and show us about Africa (Kenya and Tanzania).
We were picked up from our friends house in Nairobi. Due to my personal travel constraints I wasn’t able to review and sign the contract earlier but Dennis and his driver Lawrence picked us early in the morning and while in route to the office signed the contract ($1100) for 9 day safari. We drove a Mitsubishi Delica 4x4 with a flexible open top (for game viewing) to Masai mara the first day and went on an evening game drive. It was a transforming experience and we saw four out of the big five on the first evening. The road to Masai Mara takes you across the great rift valley and it was a humbling experience. The second day was Masai Mara as well and we did morning/evening game drives as well. Went to the Mara river, got stuck in the rain, ate brown bag lunches, bonded with our safari mates, hung out with Masai people etc. All in all, Kenya was an awesome experience with our driver Lawrence. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Africa, animals and the preservation of the environment. In addition, we felt safe with him. That was very important to us.
The second leg of the trip took us to Tanzania (TZ) which was a inter country travel bus that Dennis put us in. It’s not a glamorous bus and we have to deal with the situation. Crossing the TZ border was an experience in itself but if you are open minded and follow the pact you will have little to no trouble. Just be patient and be firm on your answers. Once arrival in Arusha we were greeted by Abraham (Baboon subcontractors). We went on our TZ adventure of Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara and Serengeti. We were a little disappointed that the itinerary got changed without consulting us and were taken to Lake Manyara instead of two days in Ngorongoro. Nevertheless, the safari was awesome and we were in the care of Max (guide/driver) and Alifa (chef). They both took great pride in their profession and taught us about Africa and wildlife as much as possible. We did sleep in pop-up tents at nights and ate whatever delicious meals Alifa prepared for us. During our trip to Serengeti, we saw the leopard and thus finished all of the big five.
Upon our return to Nairobi, Dennis took exceptional care of us. We had planned our own adventure to see rest of Kenyan coast and he stayed with us until we were assured of our next leg of the vacation (bus). He also accommodated us upon our return to Nairobi from our travels and gave us a ride to the airport as well. All in all, Dennis and his team did a fantastic job to make our vacation as safe and memorable as possible. Thank you for all your help and kindness and we will never forget our African adventure!
