AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH BONI
Boni is the best driver I have ever met. It has been an incredible experience, we have felt at home. They have helped us in everything and taught us the best of Kenya. We definitely recommend it 100%!

Well organized
A very complete safari, not only Masai Mara, but also Nakuru and Navaisha (for 30$ extra you take a boat around). We were also lucky to be guided by Boniface, a true expert and an enthusiast of Kenyan fauna who did not hesitate to take us wherever it was necessary to observe the animals of the Masai Mara.
Note: If you pay in euro the will charge you the market exchange to Kenyan chelins

Good driver, good experience but fair company
Our driver Anthony was good, reliable and responsible. He tried his best to get us da best place to see the animals! We saw the big five! The animals were so closed to us! Amazing
As for the company, it’s just fair cuz I wasted so much time on the payment in the office. They would convinced you to take money from the bank rather than paying by card so that they can charge you more from the rate. So remember to bring enough USD/EURO if you don’t want to waste your time on the bank. This happened to other tourists from other companies too. They play the same.
One more thing you need to expect is that you’ll stay with other tourists from other companies and they might have different schedules, so you will not follow the exact schedule that they’ve sent you.
But the only thing matters is the driver and the ppl staying with you in the tour! So gd luck!
Highly recommend Anthony btw.

It was a professional and well organised tour operator!
In the beginning to the end baboon safaris was highly professional. I saw all of the animals that I wanted to see and many more. My guide Anthony and James were amazing. So highly professional and educational. I learned so much and so so much. I booked the mid-range budget tour and was not disappointed at all. All of the accommodations were great, the cars were great, and the guides were professional. I recommend the safari!

Great experience from the office to the safari, super helpful team, as Djamila was always available to answer our questions even during the safari and Anthony is an amazing guide, excellent to explain everything about animals and Kenya in general always in a great mood and with a smile and knows everyone. Thanks to him our big 5 was completed and our safari was a complete success!!!

Great guide and driver and beautiful Kenya
I had a great experience with this company!
Especially Anthony our guide was very helpful! We all thoroughly enjoyed his guidance and he was a very good driver as well!
Keep in mind that some of the lodging in Lake Nakuru was a bit scoffed, I recommend you ask for a room with proper mosquito nets, as we had a bad night there with many mosquitos.
Otherwise, the trip was amazing, and we can fully recommend this company and ask for Anthony as your guide!

Mr felix was a decent helpful guy and very organized
I booked the full trip through whatsapp with Mr Dennis, he had variety of options in the accommodations and could peacefully choose the place based on my budget and preference. Mr Flex was with us during the full trip 5 days safari starting from picking up from the airport to lake navish and lake nakura and then massari marra.. the accommodations in all 3 locations where perfect and really enjoyed the full trip. Mr fleix was very organized and know alot of history and we really enjoyed our trip with him. I would highly recommend bamboo safari for my friends in Dubai and especially Mr felix as a tour guide

Efficient and very helpful. Excellent communication skills
Let me start of by mentioning that this was our 1st time in kenya.
It was all that we'd imagined and much more. Mr. Anthony our tour guide was spectacular with a vast knowledge of the animals and birds around MASAI MARA, Lakes Naivasha /Nkuru and Amboseli , he even knew reptiles to our surprise.
The trip wouldnt be what it was if it wasn't for him. Highly recommended.
The staying accommodation / food was as per budget so nothing to complain or brag about.
Over all an amazing experience.
Thank you.

Very Good
I booked a last minute three day safari to Amboseli National Park.
The Ol Tukai Lodge was very good and the staff and service excellent.
My driver and guide for the trip was very good and I was lucky enough to see lions and cheetah
close up. on the second day the clouds lifted and I had a lovely picture postcard view of Kilimanjaro. For me this was a very worthwhile trip . Thankyou Lizzie
(organiser) and Boniface my guide for the trip.
