Experience of a lifetime
We went to kenya during covid in july 2021 and it was one of the best experiences ever.. Baboon budget safari were super nice and helpful throughout the whole trip.. They made sure that our itenerary is well organized and tailored, so that we will be covering all the attractions in our tight timeline... The best part of the trip was our guide Anthony.. Truly a genuine guy who made sure we wont miss out on anything during our game drives.. He was always going the extra mile to make sure we encounter all types of wildlife and was very informative and gave an in breadth explanation of everything during the game drives which really took our experience to a whole new level... Definately recommend kenya and baboon safari as a must do on your bucket list

Excellent Kilimanjaro Trek
From my very first inquiry, Dennis and his team were very attentive and helpful. The deciding factor for me was being able to depart right away. Once in Tanzania, Sylvia from Travel for Change handled everything perfectly. My guide Frank and the local team ensure that I was ready to commence (I had to rent some gear) and made my time on the mountain a wonderful experience. Really I can't recommend them enough--just suggest that you go and see for yourself.

We did the Safari in low season and even though our guide Joseph was amazing. He did everything for us to see all the animals. A great experience if you like nature! Totally recommended!

Wonderful people, excellent experience.
I did a 7-day Safari with Baboon and it was a wonderful experience. Our guide Antony was well informed about the wildlife, particularly about the birds. The stay was great, and I love the food at Miti Mingi. I must thank Antony for his flexibility on the last day as we were about to leave for Mombasa, and he did all the arrangements early morning at 5. I will never forget the simple, helpful and hardworking people. He tried his best to show all the possible animals, birds. Great.

Great Experience of Safari in Kenya with Baboon.
The team baboon safari is excellent and keen on satisfying the customer to show everything possible in the savannas of Kenya.
The staff is friendly and cooperative. They are punctual and attentive.
They are wise enough to understand the taste and choice of the visitor and try to fulfill every small demand of us as visitor of the safari.
The driver is not only the guide but the person we got is very good reader of the wildlife. He was knowing each and every corner and almost every species of animal and bird in Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli park.
He also tried to justify our personal needs as we as a group member of all different nationalities.
Food, stay and transfers were satisfactory.
Only negative thing was in Miti Mingi Camp, the nights were complete dark without electricity as they were running on generator, but this should have mentioned earlier by the Safari. But in that dark night of Masai Mara, you can have unforgettable excellent view of sky full of stars.
I will give 85 out of 100 to "Baboon".

Best Safari and best guide/driver ever in our honeymoon!
We chose a 3 day safari to Masai Mara for our honeymoon and it was perfect! Ambrose (our guide and driver) was excellent: a four by four driver!
He tried hard to make us see all the animals and we did it: in one day we were able to see all big five and many other great animals.
It was an unforgettable experience on our honeymoon.

Experience of a lifetime! Knowledgeable, fun, and hard working drivers above and beyond expectations
My husband and I booked an 11 day custom private safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania for our honeymoon and the experiences we had were above and beyond our expectations all the way from initial airport pick up to drop off! We chose baboon budget because they were recommend by my cousin that used them for his family’s safari in 2017.
From the start, they did not miss a single detail, and even arranged to have a trail of rose petals in our room in our first hotel to celebrate our honeymoon!
The Game parks in Kenya included Maasai Mara, lake Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli. Each one was a very unique experience, all were beautiful. scenic, and filled with a variety of animals. The Lodges we stayed at were high end despite being a budget trip, and beautiful and all had incredible views and great service and the dinner and breakfast menus were delicious.
Anthony, our driver in Kenya was great to talk to, extremely knowledgeable, seemed to have lots of experience in each game park. He was very pleasant and easy going despite having to drive us around for many hours each day sometimes on very bumpy roads. He always took us where we wanted to go quickly and would surprise us with animals we were hoping to see but thought would be too difficult to find. He was always able to spot animals that were hiding and he educated us on animals facts and Kenyan culture. I would definitely request Anthony if we were to return to Kenya.
After Kenya we were transferred to Tanzania by bus. Once again everything was organized and we did not have to worry about getting a ride to our next destination since the drivers found us. Our driver in Tanzania (Godfrey - from Seven wonders - but also organized through baboon budget) was fantastic as well. We had a great time talking to him on our safaris and asking him questions. We visited Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. All were very different and I recommend all three. He also took us to a remote hot springs in Moshi that was a bit out of the way on a road that was very hard to find. Every request we had when booking a month before from canada was met and exceeded our expectations.
On our last day in Africa we had a 10 hour layover in Nairobi. Boniferas was our driver and he spent all day driving us around to the giraffe centre, various markets, malls, parks, and carnivore restaurant for dinner before finally dropping us off at the airport with great timing! He was very personable and professional. He made our last day fantastic as well.
I highly recommend this tour company for any safaris in Kenya or Kenya and Tanzania. I have so many great things to say about our time in Africa and baboon budget safaris played a vital role in making our honeymoon perfect! We had just come from Uganda and Rwanda, and although we saw amazing things in those two beautiful countries, the tour company there did not even compare to baboon budget safaris.
