Tsavo East & West - Chale Island
5/5

We had an excellent trip from Mombasa to Tsavo East and Tsavo West while staying at Lumo Wildlife Sanctuary. We have seen a lot of animals from close by (giraffes, elephants, zebras, antelopes, hippos, crocodiles, ...). We spent the last part of our journey at Chale Island. Our guide Mahmud was a nice man who made us feel comfortable and a perfect driver (even in difficult circumstances) who was always waiting for us on time, did his best to found the animals we loved (giraffes, lions,..) and gave us clear information and explanations.

10 out of 10 recommend Netherken
5/5

We had a great tour, we were concerned coming with the pandemic but it was great. Mahmud was an awesome guide, he found the big 5 and was great at finding and pointing out animals, stopping whenever we wanted and making sure we saw everything we came to see. He was friendly, professional and truly the nicest guy. The hotels were great and the whole tour was put together very well, it was very easy for us and we had a great time. We absolutely recommend this company for your Safari.

Professional service from start to finish with an excellent local guide - Mahmoud.
5/5

Communication with the operator was excellent before we arrived in Kenya, pick up from the hotel was on time and pre-arranged. Our guide was friendly and helpful and ensured we were able to see all of the top 5 within our 3 day safari. The safari lodges were lovely from our brief overnight stays. Would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a comprehensive safari experience that is hassle free. Mahmoud our guide and driver on the safari was also exceptional and couldn't recommend him enough.

Your money worth
4/5

Reliable organization. Mahmud, our driver is a very pleasant person and very punctual. He knows the different animals and even many birds by name. We were in Kenia not only for the big game but also for the birds, large and small. Mahmud was also interested in all the wildlife. He respects nature and acts accordingly. Price-quality ratio is good and we were very positively surprised about the locations of the lodges in the parks. We have been to Tsavo East, Amboseli and Tsavo West with Netherken. We are very satisfied and definitely recommend this organization.

An exceptional way to experience Kenya
5/5

As our first trip to Kenya, we were ready for an adventure but managed our expectations.

With Netherken however our trip went from an exciting adventure to a lifelong memory. From day one we already began making plans to come back all because of Rashid, our tour guide, and every Kenyan we encountered.

The safari itself was magical and very well organized to the point that once we were off the schedule we felt it's absence. The lodge's we stayed at were breathtaking with views of elephants and wildebeest and baboon's right outside the lodge.

The whole journey was virtually perfect as it was planned really well by Netherken and executed perfectly by Rashid who went above and beyond to make our experience as memorable as possible. Kenya is a must for anyone who can and Netherken Safaris is a fantastic way to do just that.

Amaizing Experience with Badru!
5/5

Very fun and Nice safari! We got the best reception from Badru and had a friendly tone during the entire trip! He made sure that we got to see the animals upclose and knew exactly where the animals would be! He was very tolerant with us and made sure that we had absorbed every animal experience before moving ahead! Great value for money(the safari lodges were wonderful)! I 100% reccomend! We loved every part of the Trip!! Thank you so much!❤️
