Awesome Experience
5/5

We went to Kenya in the month of August mainly to witness the Great Migration in Masai Mara. After going through the reviews in Safari Bookings, we finalised on Beacon Safaris. Mr.Robert who is in charge of Beacon Safaris was very prompt and diligent with his responses. There was never a delay from his side ever. We stayed in some amazing places at Masai Mara, Amboseli and Lake Nakuru. It was absolutely wonderful. Our guide throughout the journey was Mr.Henderson who was very knowledgeable and kept giving us some many trivia about animals while we were on safari. I would definitely recommend Beacon Safaris anyday. I also felt their prices were reasonable. Plus the experience has just been wonderful!

Fantastic long weekend in the Masai Mara
5/5

Fantastic long-weekend with Beacon Safaris. Had 3 nights in the Masai Mara and couldn't fault our adventure. Stayed in Illkiliani Camp, saw all the Big-5 plus more, and also witnessed the migration across the Mara River. Also visited the Masai village which was worth it. Thank you to Beacon who made our adventure so easy.. and a special big thanks to our driver Moses for knowing exactly where to go and how to get there! The 4x4 was perfect and we absolutely loved our stay. Thanks again.

Efficient, organised and friendly
5/5

This is my second time using Beacon Safaris and Robert and his team exceeded my expectations yet again. The communication is so easy and efficient and when you get there everything is organised so well. Johnny was our guide yet again and his knowledge on the animals and their behaviour still amazes me. More than that however he is a fantastic human being and makes the expirence so much better. I'm sure I will visit Kenya or Tanzania again and will only book with Beacon Safaris. That is guaranteed. Thank you Robert and Johnny for organising a brilliant experience for my family and I.

Great.
5/5

Ken, our driver, was really good. He navigated across half of Kenya from memory. He was able to show us all the wildlife and all with professionalism and affability.

All contact, communications and payments went smoothly. The whole experience was delightful.

Everything as Promise
5/5

They were amazing from first contact to make reservation (even though our group kept changing from 10 to 9 and finally to 8 people.) The minivans with drivers at 7:00 am sharp as arranged. The drivers/guide very nice, professional but approachable. Great english, great knowledge of Masai Mara animals. We had two vans and two drivers. They made sure we stayed together and strategized when looking for the game. We saw 4 out of the big 5 on our first drive which was the evening drive in day of arrival plus zebras, cheetahs, gazelles, wildebeest, birds, and more. The second day was a full day game drive and managed to witness a wildebeest migration plus saw once again and in different positions the Lion, Elephants and Buffalo. Did not see Leopard again, but saw again cheetahs family, elephant family, girafes, zebras and many more. They were very accommodating and allowed us to take our photos an always tried to place vehicle for best view. We took a package that include tent camp Ilkeliani. The accommodations were amazing. They provided water for us during day and allowed us to take some for our meals as well. Overall a great experience and will recomend them. Our drivers were the best: John and Eustus.

Suggest a excellent safaris choice
5/5

If you can't find the travel agents, I recommend this Beacon Safaris than you.
First, Robert is the fastest reply to my question and outspoken person. Second, the data provided are authentic (including confirmation of hotel). Third, our driver and guide , John, in addition to providing the best viewing points to facilitate outside shooting. His eyes like a Hawk-Eye-like sharp, lion also can see in the yellow jungle.
Although we can't see the great migration, but we see that major wildlife. Thank you Beacon gives a relaxing and fulfilling journey.

Excellent!!! A+
5/5

We had a wonderful 7 days taste of Kenya safari, with our guide Antony. Starting with Masai Mara and ending with Tsavo. Antony spoke very good english and shared a wealth of information about ghe animals and the culture. I would recommend Beacon to anyone and would gladly book again.

Excellent - so much better than expected
5/5

Fastest back and forth communication with Beacon safaris vs. other providers.

Great explanations re pros of each camp/ using a 4x4 with no hard upselling which was much appreciated.

Excellent guide!!! Ken was easy to get along with, very polite, chatty when we wanted to chat, without being overly talkative -important as I am quite grumpy in the early morning :)
And most importantly, Ken saw it as a personal mission to get us to see the big cats and more animals. And when we didn't see as much after 1 drive, we could tell he was more disappointed than we were! We were not disappointed at all as we saw 7 cheetahs, 11 lions (male, female & cubs), the wildebeest migration and river crossing, a black rhino, hippos, elephants, zebras, giraffes and 2 live kills. We were admittedly very lucky but we also had an excellent guide.

We have already recommended Beacon Safaris to all our friends!
