Tailor-made tour (safaris in several national parks + beach in Mombasa), 13 days.
Cate was very understanding of what we wanted for our budget and made it work. I liked her 'can do' attitude.
E-mail communications were swift.
Service was good, our safari guide (Felix) was amazing!
A few accommodations were changed, meaning they were not the ones we initially agreed, but they were at the level agreed with the facilities requested.
The safaris delivered exceedingly more than our expectations!

Our experience was Amazing
We had an unforgettable safari experience in Kenya, thanks to African Breeze Tours and in particular to our guide Joe. We highly recommend them to anyone considering a trip to Kenya.
Communication is smooth and straightforward. Cate was one of the earliest to respond to our query, and was always responsive to our follow up requests. On arrival, she gave us a warm welcome at the airport, despite having to wait for us for over an hour as we were held up inside the airport.
Our guide Joe is very friendly and professional. He was always on time and in a cheerful mood despite hours and hours of driving. He has superb knowledge in animals and a passion in birds, whilst showing great respect to the wild animals. His vision is extraordinary. Very often he spot animals with naked eyes, while it took me a long time to find with my binoculars. It was his extremely sharp vision that helped us spot a critically-endangered black rhino in Lake Nakuru. He works hard to ensure we had good game viewing, driving long distance in Masai Mara just so we can see both cheetahs and leopards in one afternoon.
We are really grateful for such an experience and hope to return soon.

Few things command more respect than hard work,Integrity,dedication and ability to follow through.These are among attributes we experienced from start to finish when organizing our trip to MasaiMara with African Breeze Tours.
An excellent listeners and pays attention to details.The choice of Mara Ashnil tented Camp was perfect for us.Driver guide skilled and reliable and the vehicle was always clean and completely stocked with bottled drinking water.
We had a fantastic 3 days safari experience and would highly recommend anyone to choose the operator.

Safari adventures in 5 of the National Parks of Kenya with a variety of accomodations.
The main strength of African Breeze is the owner Cate....who is determined to provide the best possible experience on each safari. She is excellent at communicating by email in advance, by text and phone in Kenya and in person....she was always available and would follow through with every plan that we made - organizing insurance coverage for the safari and purchasing bus tickets for us and dropping them off where we were staying even after our safari was finished. Indeed she felt like our guardian angel while we were in Kenya and always seemed to be there when we needed her.
Cate has the daunting task of coordinating drivers and visitors and dealing with the unexpected.
We had been expecting to be on safari with another couple but we never got to meet them as they postponed their trip at the last minute. We ended up on our safari with a private driver for the same cost. Spending 7 days together we learned about our driver and he would answer our questions about everything we saw. He admitted that he never knew what each day would hold in store for us....but there was never a shortage of animals or sights to see. Our vehicle was comfortable and we felt very safe. Our only suggestion was that a cooler with cold water would have been nice to have along...also to help keep our picnic lunch cool. We stayed in 4 different locations all well organized and comfortable but each one was unique so an interesting variety. The food ranged from fantastic to very good.... the only exception was the one day picnic lunch which was poor.
We enjoyed our initial 7 day safari so much that we used African Breeze again for a 2 day/1 night trip to Amboseli National Park. Cate organized for us to stay at a perfect camp and provided us with an excellent driver who was very passionate about Kenya and willing to share his knowledge and understanding of the country.
African Breeze made all of our Safari Dreams come true and we are very grateful to Cate for her skills and for her kindness to us.

What more can you ask for?
While this experience is still fresh in my mind, but yet so distant that I have now had time to take all the impressions in, I'll try to give a written impression of the amazing tour I had.
We were a group of 3 girls who went on a budget safari to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Hells gate. We were picked up at our hotel in Nairobi and without any complaints we made a stop for half an hour on the way, to check on our friend in the hospital. Cate, who arranged the tour for us, told us that in case our friend got better of course she could come join our safari, no problem. On the last day Cate even went to check up on our friend before we got home, because sadly she didn't get well enough to meet out in Masai Mara. The staff (Cate, our driver and cook) were genuinely concerned for our friend. That was really heartwarming and safe.
Besides from this not planned for event, everything was super smooth. We didn't have to think about food, accommodation or anything. We just had to enjoy the trip, which was easy because we were where we were.
We really enjoyed everything from the driving games, to the food (we still talk about this amazing food we had), the campsite, the other guys we shared the car with, the bike ride to Hells Gate and of course the air balloon ride. I would recommend every one to try the balloon ride even though it means getting up at 4 am, it ends with champagne breakfast in the middle of Masai Mara among the animals.
I'm never gonna forget the days I spent on a safari in Kenya and African Breeze Tours made it possible for me not to worry about a thing and just enjoy this very special time. It felt beyond a budget tour. The tents had bathrooms and electricity!
I would highly recommend ABT to every one going on a Safari.
